Carol cut my hair and she was amazing. She listened to my concerns and added extra care. She was conservative with length cutting and asked my consent to cut more. She blended my bangs from a previous choppy haircut. She made appropriate suggestions. She styled my hair with volume. I recommend her. I'll see her back in a couple of months. read more

Craft Hair Studio - The perfect cut for my hair and life style - Hair Stylists Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

I'm not fancy about a lot of things in life, but good hair is something I will pursue, pay for, and need on my head to feel right about the world. After moving here from big-city, big-salon California, I've had to go through several royal misses to find my way to Craft. Danielle is an amazing stylist and got my blonde right again--first try, no damage. Her cuts are solid as well. If you like celebrity-quality hair, this is your salon. The BEST of ABQ... and not just for hair. It's good people, too! I've observed them do community work and drives/fundraisers for children in need, include a hungry client on their lunch run, and watch the owner, Mario, help the police apprehend a perp on the run (seriously). They're also huge supporters of local businesses. I love the low-key style, good vibes, and great hair that come out of this salon. It's all quality!! read more

This hair studio has a comfortable artsy vibe to it. My stylist Tim was fun and engaging, but most of all he did a great job on my hair color. Thank you read more

Mario the store owner is such a cool guy! Very knowledgable, personable and kind. Just like the other licensed professionals that work there. I get my hair cut by Tim Saiz who is an awesome stylist. My haircut is more just a taper/fade style so Tim is far over qualified for the job, but finding someone who can really give you a fresh fade and taper is lot a harder than it seems. Straight edge is there if you wish and a wash, thats a lot more than I can say about other barbers! read more

Amber is an expert with color transformations. Also - if you're looking for an honest opinion with tactful suggestions - she'll help suggest color tone and/or cut style that suits you best. The atmosphere is young, modern, with an industrial glam style. The staff is laid back, friendly, and make you feel welcome. They have a high standard of sanitation. They offer top of the line salon quality products. read more

I'm new to town and I've been looking for an upscale salon that is capable of doing men's cuts. I walked in this salon and spoke to Mario who then cut my hair. I couldn't be happier with the level of customer service, experience and all around feel of this amazing establishment. I can honestly say I don't have to look any further for a studio I can call home. read more

Another fantastic cut and service by Mario. The facility is clean and super hip and these few times making an appoint with him runs me about a week or two booked out. He is well worth the wait. The salon has been careful with Covid practices and even offer a new mask so you can get rid of the current one that has cut hair clippings in it. He also works with his clients personal hair styling and sends the client out the door with how the client would typically wear it on a daily basis (he usually does better than I do myself regardless). It's a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for. read more

Craft Hair Studio - My haircut done by Mario.! - Hair Stylists Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

I recently moved to Albuquerque and finding a new salon and stylist is daunting. SO happy to have found Craft Salon! Mario greeted me by name as soon as I arrived even though he was wrapping up another client. The salon is cool, fun, artsy but not in an obnoxious way. Mario talked to me about my hair, my likes/dislikes then got to work. I have very curly hair and he cut it to perfectly compliment each curl. The color is great and I couldn't be happier. I HIGHLY recommend this salon and Mario. read more

Passing through on a road trip so booked weeks out as would be the last city for while - whoever took my call unfortunately messed up my booking. Only put me in for a cut not a colour/cut - was devastated. I remember the call and the lady sounded harried and hung up while I was still saying thank you - make sure to double check your booking. My stylist was Danielle and she was fantastic, totally not her fault and offered to stay late that night if I could come back (I couldn't). She also gave me recommendations of other salons to call. Did a great job on my cut and was clearly upset about the mess up. I highly recommend her. read more

Danielle has been doing my hair at Craft for over 3 years now! I have platinum blonde hair which requires a lot of upkeep and damage control! Danielle is great at ensuring the color of my hair is going to turn out perfect while keeping my hair healthy! Before Danielle my hair would not grow and it was constantly breaking because I had a hard time keeping it healthy while dying it blonde. Danielle has done an amazing job at keeping my hair healthy and beautifully platinum all at the same time!! I would deffinetly recommend her for any color, style or hair need you may have!! read more

Getting your hair done by Mario Griego at Craft is rather like trading in your dusty old Volkswagen Squareback with a dent in the side and a bumper sticker that says "Kill Your Television" and getting a brand new Mercedes SLS AMG with Bose surround sound. Recently when in New Mexico, I woke up and freaked out when I looked in the mirror - it was a five alarm hair emergency! At first, I grabbed for my cell to call 911 as I thought this was an alien intruder. Then I realized it was my own hair going a bit Einstein on me. YIKES! Don't you just hate it when that happens? Then there were those intermittent gray hairs, which I used to return to the mothership for a warranty replacement. Sadly, last time my mother returned the hair with a note stating the following: "Dear Unit Number 6, I regret to inform you that your warranty has expired". Truly heartbreaking. Mario from Craft banned those graying antiquities to an alternate Universe, and relocated the Einstein vibe back into my brain (to go with the other Einsteins already there, of course LOL) - and all while keeping me thoroughly entertained. Mario Griego from Craft is an advanced hair genius ("AHG" for those visiting from from Acronyms Anonymous). His technique can only be described as THE MARIO METHOD (patent pending) - the algorithm for which is no doubt continually changing, same as Google's; so there is no sense in trying to reverse engineer it on behalf of the competitor: a blithering fossil up the street who uses a razor to rip your hair out and make it frizzy on purpose and while offering you one of their sandwiches. Seriously. The entire vibe and staff at Craft is cool, hip, modern and foward thinking. Like you are in Manhattan or Williamsburg/Brooklyn instead. A true oasis in the desert. Did I mention the lamp shades? O-U-T-S-T-A-N-D-I-N-G! (...because you wouldn't want them doing your hair if they shopped for interior decor at Walmart). When you finish, go visit Zendo Cafe a few blocks away and enjoy an vegan organic almond milk latte with the other beautiful people hovering about - across from a true castle (you'll see what I mean, just do it). It doesn't get any better! read more

After leaving Country Club Men's Salon, Craft Hair Studio was the first place I visited while trying to find a new place to regularly get my haircut. The owner, Mario, cut my hair. This place gets busy, so book your appointment a few days in advance. Totally worth it. The entire staff at Craft is incredible--exceptionally helpful and friendly. The professionalism here is also extraordinary, but not overbearing. The vibe here is authentic, hip, and casual. The decor is simple and sophisticated, but not boring. It seemed as every stylist absolutely loved the work they were doing, taking the time to accommodate each client as needed. Upon entering, I was immediately checked in and offered a beverage while I waited. During my wait, I observed that everyone was so at ease. It definitely made coming to a new place so much easier. After Mario's assistant washed my hair, it was time for the moment of truth. What the hell was this guy going to do with my hair? Mario didn't ask too many questions about how I wanted my hair styled, however he did ask the right questions in order to give me something that worked for me. I had already had an idea of what I wanted my hair to look like, and it was a pleasure collaborating with Mario in order to achieve the look that I desired. He is a very witty and intelligent character, it was wonderful to chat with him as he cut my hair. At the time of writing, Craft has been open for three years and is ranked number three on Yelp. With Mario at the helm and an extraordinary team around him, it's not hard to see why. Highly recommend this place for men looking for a dope place to get their hair cut. read more

I was not pleased with my haircut. It seemed uneven and strange. I showed my stylist a photo of what I wanted, however, it did not match when I walked out of there. Finding the right stylist is tricky, and I've been fortunate to have had mine cut by people like Oribe, which is tough act to follow. Unfortunately, I had to have this cut corrected by another stylist, so with the lack of attention to detail, I shan't be returning to this really well designed establishment. read more

I've traveled a long and bumpy road to find the perfect hair salon in Albuquerque. Craft is, hands down, the best. When you walk in, prepare to be whisked away to Brooklyn, Chicago, or LA. The simple, minimalist interior, the exposed brick wall, the hip, tattooed stylists -- it's all what you would expect to find in a much larger metropolitan area. My stylist, Atalie, is very talented. The first time, I came in with a few pictures of the pixie cut I wanted, but asked her to use some creative license to find a style that worked for me. I couldn't have been happier with the result. Hallelujah! Atalie can deliver one helluva pixie cut. I've had many short haircuts in my day, and they have ranged from masculine to choppy to bee-hivey, to - inexplicably - all of the above. Atalie, however, delivered a very short pixie that was feminine, soft, professional, and stylish. It also had the crown jewel of a great haircut -- while it was growing out between appointments, it looked a little different, but still amazing, at every length. I have been back a few more times, and each cut has been of the same high quality. I really can't recommend Craft, and Atalie specifically, enough. At a recent happy hour event, I found out that 7 out of 8 people at my table are regulars at Craft. We all have different stylists, but are all equally impressed. Trust me -- this is quickly becoming the hottest new salon in ABQ. Hip modern vibe, friendly and talented stylists, reasonable prices, and an overall pleasant, relaxing experience. What more could you ask for? read more

When I moved to Albuquerque I went through far too many fair catastrophes at other salons. I am a hard to please designer, and even harder to please when someone is designing my hair for me. I was referred here by a friend with a short style that met my ever demanding tastes. I cannot explain how absolutely pleased I was with my stylist Josh. I went to get a new A-line cut and I was super nervous about entrusting a stylist stranger to the job. His abilities to capture the exact angle and body I was expecting were incredible. Not only did the cut look beautiful that day, but as it grew out it evolved to a still killer style. It is absolutely the best place I've been to in albuquerque and in particular, Josh is a crafting genius. Go here and discover the best version of your hair! read more

I love this place. Everyone is awesome. Mario does a great job and he's a blast to spend 45 minutes with. I've tried several places in town over the five years that I've been here and unless something terrible happens, I'll keep coming back. My second favorite lady ever (first was in Maryland) was at Mark Pardo and then disappeared. Then I went to a lady that left my daughter and I in a mostly vacant building while she went out and smoked. I had a favorable experience at Square Root and really liked Jason, but the cut was always just a little off from what I wanted. I guess I needed the free spirit and hilarity that is Mario. He does a great job with my almost 12-year old's thick, wavy hair, too. Great, small salon. Pilar is fantastic with the little ones (my son adores her). I've been 4 times now and I'm pretty pleased. Give 'em a try! read more

(In a sing-song voice) "I will follow Mario....I will follow Mario wherever heeeee mayyyyy go...." After being a loyal customer of Mario's at Heart & Soul, I was happy to hear of his new venture with Craft Hair Studio - after all, once you've found a fabulous hairdresser, you'll follow them in all their ventures. Mario is fantastic with hair and coloring. I don't know how much more I can say - my hair always looks fabulous, he always provides styles that work with my lifestyle, and he does great coloring that doesn't require me to go back every 8 weeks (I mean, if I could, I would, but I'm a grad student....). You know how you sometimes feel like you need a change with your hair, but can't articulate what you want? I can go to Mario and say "hey, I think I want it shorter - what do you think would work?" and leave with a exactly what I needed, but didn't know how to say. He's that good, seriously. Benefits of Craft include decent parking (!!!!), a mini-fridge and coffee maker which have saved my relationship while my boyfriend waits, and a totally hip vibe. While Craft and Mario may charge more than your average SuperCuts, it's so worth it. Every man and woman will feel like a million bucks walking out. read more
