I have seen Tina for more than a decade! Even after I moved to Brooklyn! Every time she suggests a change, she is right! After I see her I walk with the confidence that I look good and now I love that her studio is just right at her home! Have coffee, lunch , change the tv channels, not having annoying loud salon music makes all the difference in the world. She had been my Greek mother for many years and I love the whole experience, she is my hairstylist but also a friend! read more

If you are struggling to find a good colorist in New York...Tina is your go-to. I just recently visited for a much needed touch-up on my blonde balayaged hair, and Tina did exactly what I had hoped: fixed my 6 month over-grown roots perfectly!! From the moment I arrived, Tina was very accommodating and immediately knew what to do with my hair. We had an initial assessment and discussion of what I wanted and the best way to achieve it. We decided to proceed with blonde highlights (very well placed, look natural) and toner to warm the overall process. I loved it!! Very happy, and will certainly be back at the next sign of root. IF you're unsure of where to go, and want to have a stylist who knows hair AND color well- Tina should be your first stop. read more

My blonde is gorgeous and natural looking..and Tina took the time to give me a great haircut. She had to cut off alot of damaged hair which left my hair at a shorter length. My guy neighbor bumped into me today and said he has never seen me look so beautiful read more

Tina is an amazing colorist. I found her on Yelp, she had such great reviews and decided to make an appointment with her. I am so glad I did, Great colorist & personality to match!!! I love my hair, she did an amazing job, I've been looking for a colorist for a long time now, that astute confidence with coloring no matter the situation, which I don't always get that "feeling" going into salons. I'm quite aware that my hair was an array of hot mess colors, between doing store dye (burgundy) jobs myself and randomly throwing some bleach in, hence the orange (the before pic is pretty good looking but not always, and not walking in that day!, Ha!), along with white hairs and apparently the red had not entirely seeped onto my brown hair in the back. Yup, she was able to make my hair look amazing with a bit of funk (even tho the after picture, is in the wrong lightening to emphasize it) I finally found my coloring lady & without breaking my bank. read more

I've have been looking for someone who can color my hair for the past 3 years. i live in the Bronx and lately all the colorist around my are have done a bad job doing my hair. i Google " best hair colorist in NY " and saw hair color by Tina. i immediately got in my car and drove over to Astoria to get my hair done. First of all, i got lost a bit getting to the place, but once i got there, I felt really comfortable as soon as i walked in. everyone at the salon was very pleasant and very nice. Tina checked my hair and said she will work with me on trying to pick a color that i would love not something that someone else will like to see me with. it was a long process and a little pricy but at the end it was worth it. i love my hair color and highlights. she did and amazing job. i can truly say i found my hair colorist, after all the ups and down with the previous ones. read more

Tina was amazing!! I have had a digital perm with layers hair style for 7 years and was beyond tired of it. I wanted a drastic change that included some coloring, and based on my fellow Yelpers' recommendation, sought Tina out. Tina is a total professional, and you can tell she really loves what she does. She took a look at my hair and the shape of my face and asked how bold of a look I was ready for. She told me what issues I had with my hair and knew exactly how to work around it. There was none of that "sooo, what do you want to do?" type of question that I had gotten from some other stylists in the past, I only had to give Tina a very rough idea of how short I wanted it, how much color I wanted, and how much maintenance I was able to handle everyday, and Tina knew exactly what to do. I went in with limp half-permed lifeless hair and came out with a bouncy short bob with some vibrant colors! I was so impressed!! And the bonus point of the experience was that Tina was super sweet, personable and entertaining, and the rest of the staff at the salon were all super sweet! Tina is inside the Casablanca Hair Salon. So If you are looking for a very clean but no-frill hair salon with an amazingly talented hair artist, Tina is your woman! read more

Maybe a long long long time ago she was good. I don't want to be ugly but it only got worse with every visit. It's really very sad. :(...

I had been searching for a good colorist since I moved to the US, a while ago. I found Tina, and I am very pleased with her work. Tina knows what she's doing and made no mistakes with my hair. I definitely look better after she did my color and my cut. Additionally, Tina makes the whole process fun since she is also a very nice person! read more

Tina is an excellent stylist and a great colorist. I have tricky curly hair and Tina is the only person that found the right cut for me. I am 31 and have been to many salons in both the US and abroad. I haven't let anyone else touch my hair since I met her. A couple of years ago Tina gave me highlights and brought my hair from dark brown to blonde but also taught me how to take care of it. So now my hair is healthier than it's ever been. Tina is an true professional and a riot to be around! I highly recommend her! read more

Tina is my go-to for coloring. She obviously knows what she's doing and she'll tell you what needs to be done. She's such a nice person to say the least. I love how Tina takes care of my hair. read more

Tina is a god among men. She saved my hair and in turn, my life. She is the Odysseus in this epic tale (and not just because she's Greek). I had such a horrible experience at Beauty Palace in Astoria (29-11 Broadway: please for your own good never step into this establishment) - I initially went because the prices there are cheap but you truly get what you pay for. The hairdressers there are completely inexperienced and the salon totally does not care about their customers. The colorist (if you can call the poor woman that) destroyed my hair - bleached it beyond oblivion and made my virgin hair several shades of orange (I had requested a blonde ombre). My head was covered from root to end in a brass color (the color your urine turns when you get a bad UTI) and it was completely and totally fried. I do not exaggerate that I visited 10 different salons (all very expensive) who told me they were not sure they could fix this hack job - and 2 out of 10 offered to fix it for around $300 dollars each. I'm not a crier, but my hair and my bad credit is all I have - so I was left with a disaster I could not afford to fix, and I cried for several hours and contemplated shaving it all off in a neurotic fit (I had just re-watched Girl Interrupted a few days prior). My mother caught me in the bathroom with a buzzer and snatched it out of my hand stating "your face is too round to pull this off." So after going back to Beauty Palace demanding my $200 dollars back (yeah, I paid $200 for a stint with psychosis), I was told they did not have a return policy and they owed me nothing, so I wished a pox on all of their houses and stormed out. Then proceeded my initially unsuccessful search for a cure to my cranial UTI. And then I found Tina - I called her number and I was told to stop by. So I walked in and immediately she gasped at the sight of me - I told her everything and she kept saying how much of a "complete and total disaster" this was and how terribly bad she felt for me. She told me she would have to do some serious triage and she "usually never fixes other people's mistakes" but she felt so sorry for me. I know this sounds harsh but I have a Balkan mother so Tina actually really comforted me and I could tell from the start she knew what she was talking about. After a grueling 3 hours (which she made as enjoyable as possible - she is vastly entertaining and literally the sweetest woman), I looked in the mirror and to my disbelief I could now fathom letting people look at me again. She not only corrected the disaster but she made my hair look healthy and beautiful. The color correction was truly the best I have ever seen and I honestly thought with what my hair looked like before, I would have to become a mole person and only allow friends and family to visit me in dark underground tunnels. Tina is a hero (and she only charged me $180 for a 3 hour god-damn job!) - I recommend her to anyone and everyone and I now trust her with my life. read more

I came to Tina for updated highlights after not coloring for nearly two years and I will certainly be coming back! Tina is a true professional and wonderful at what she does because she asks questions and listened to what I wanted before starting. She was very gracious and friendly over the phone when I'd initially called to ask about pricing and did not pressure me at all. The price she quoted me over the phone is what she charged, and it was within the price range for highlights listed inside the salon. I think that for the quality job she did and her level of experience, her rates are quite reasonable. I'll be coming back for sure! read more

From the first minute Tina made me feel comfortable and listened to what I wanted. I moved to Astoria (from Brooklyn) and needed a new hair stylist. I'm the kind of person that once I find a good hairstylist I remain very loyal. And after the color and cut I was even happier. I have red hair and wasn't sure someone would get what I was going for. She gave me a beautiful, realistic, vibrant looking red which was exactly what I wanted and which I love. I highly recommend her and I will definitely be going back. read more

My hair had become black black black from too many colorings. Tina was able to bring my shade back to a softer brown, and at a very reasonable price. If you have had problems with color or need a change, Tina is the on to go to. read more

The Best Hair Color Specialist! I had a bad experience with another stylist in Grand Ave Elmhurst when I had my hair color and hair cut done four days ago. I thought I would be getting a good deal since the prices were cheap and it had good reviews in yelp. My scalp was burned due to too much chemicals used in the hair coloring process. During the procedure I complained about the burning sensation that I felt in my scalp but I was reassured by the staff that it was only normal and it will be gone after 15 minutes. The burning sensation did not go away and I was very nervous that it will damage my scalp. I had my hair colored in salons several times before and I did not have this kind of experience. The color turned out terrible too not the color that I expected. I am asian and I prefer not to color my hair light because it will not match my skin tone. The haircut was badly done, I noticed several strands not completely cut when I got home. I was really depressed because of the outcome and was also embarrassed to come out of the house. Good thing I found tina in yelp. I called her up first thing in the morning. Thankfully, she answered her cellphone even if it was not her work hours yet. She agreed to insert me in her schedule for that day to fix the damage that was done on my hair. She was very accommodating and motherly, I instantly felt relaxed and at ease. She is really an expert at what she does. She has been doing this hair color business for a long time. She was able to fix the damage done and color my hair with the one that I really wanted. She fixed my hairstyle too. I will not go anywhere else if I need to color my hair again. Thank you Tina! I highly recommend her. read more

Getting my hair cut and colored with Tina was an absolutely great experience. She is a true artist who understands the chemistry of color, and exactly how to cut and style hair to its most flattering shape. I've not stopped getting compliments on my new do since I've left her chair, and am so grateful to her and her vision. Of equal importance to her technique is what a lovely person she is: kind, understanding, and hilarious! Thank goodness for Tina...she's now officially my hairdresser! read more

Tina is an amazing colorist. I found her on Yelp and decided to make an appointment with her, I am so glad I did. During the consultation she listened with patience about my hair history and what color and cut I was looking for, she performed a strand test (which not too many hair stylists do) and Tina gave me her opinion on what color I should go for. The end result, was a beautiful color and highlights which look so natural and compliment my skin tone and eyes perfectly. I decided to get the STS treatment for split ends as well, which was performed by Eleni. Eleni showed me the before and after and how many split ends were taken off my hair without taking off the length, she did a great job and she is very personable.Tina is very pleasant and down to earth, and her prices are very reasonable. I have recommended her to several people. read more

I've been cutting my hair with Tina for about two years now. And she is Amazing! I have referred my friends and they also love her. She is great at revitalizing your hair. A true artist. read more

I came to see Tina after reading all the positive reviews on here, and I am so glad I did! My hair had been previously damaged from getting bad highlights, which turned to a bland single process color I thought I was stuck with. Tina was very patient listening to my concerns. I knew I could trust her right away with her honesty, her eagerness to safely fix the problem, and her education on what our hair can and cannot do with color. I appreciated this and never felt worried with what I let her choose to do. And I'm grateful for that, because a lot of stylists will tell you what you want to hear and rush you through the process. My hair looks and feels healthier already. And as an added bonus for me, her personality was so positive and humorous, it was infectious. I highly recommend! read more

Just as everyone else has written, I too had a terrific experience with Tina. I asked her to do what she thought best for my color (dirty blonde with old highlights) and she chose a golden brown base with very subtle and artfully placed highlights. I feel she took years off me with her insightful and spot-on color shift - amazing and so much more reasonably priced (and better!) than in Manhattan. A couple days later I was giving a party and decided to get a wash/blow dry in the city. The woman who did it, herself very experienced, commented on what beautiful highlights I had. Tina is wonderful at her craft and as a person. read more

Tina is the absolute best! Best color in Astoria! I enjoy the time I spend while she's doing my hair. Definitely give her a try!!
