I'm really happy with my color and cut! Deirdre gave me beautiful balayage highlights and Chris gave me a great cut. They both really listened to what I wanted and were super nice. I love my hair and I'll definitely go back! read more

Ever since moving to Astoria and visiting several different hair salons, this by far is the best place! Chris happened to have an opening within my short-notice time frame and really brought his A-Game. I want to acknowledge that he executed the cut I was looking for while providing the service of a personable high-class/causal experience. Thank you Chris, I will be back! read more

I had to fly into New York last minute for a funeral unfortunately when I landed at JFK I Googled hair salons close by this one happened to be around the block from where I was staying I called up got in the next day right before the funeral and Chris the owner personally cut my hair and it came out amazing I highly highly highly recommend Chris and crush studios read more

Chris cut my hair this past weekend and the result was amazing!!! He was super friendly during the appointment and really listened to what I like my hair to look like. My short layers and bangs are perfect. read more

Crush is my new go-to hair spot. Don't walk, run there! The salon is super nice and so is the owner. They use really high quality products and genuinely care about your hair and clearly the client. My hair stylist Christina was amazing. She was accommodating with scheduling, super sweet and great at what she does. I've had many haircuts and dyes at high end salons but this was by far my best experience and fav cut. Beautiful dye, beautiful cut and I also got a Brazilian blow out I am super excited about! Not to mention she's such a sweetheart. I'll definitely be going back and I highly recommend. read more

I loved this place and definitely coming back when I need another cut! I was warmly welcomed in and given all the attention I needed when deciding how much hair to get cut off. You'll get treated like family if you make Crush Studio you're salon of choice. read more

Chris is the best! Gives the best haircuts in the city, always gets me in short notice because I am the worst with time management lol, makes you feel right at home and is just an awesome talented dude. I am usually very reluctant to go get my hair done but I trust Chris with mine and going to the salon doesn't feel like a chore anymore, he always makes it fun. Don't go anywhere else. read more

This is a great little Salon in a nice quiet part of Ditmars. Chris is very attentive and very focused on listening to what your looking for and takes his time with your appointment. The Salon has a really nice vibe to it and everyone seems to get along and know each other that is in there. It's so much better than some of the tight-spaced salon's I've been to in Astoria and overall the pricing is reasonable for the high-end skills/service in my opinion. I look forward to visiting again and trying more of their services. read more

I was looking for a new place to get my hair colored after not liking it at another salon. Crush came up on yelp and in google reviews and I decided to give it a try and I'm very glad I did. I got a single process color and blowout, the blowout came with the color (which almost never happens anymore) and they gave me a glaze too. Typically I'm the type of person that will always find something to complain about and even days later I'm drawing blanks! I've been living in Astoria now for two years and I really wish I found this place sooner! Chris and Deidre were great and easy to talk to. Definitely will be going back! read more

I'm so so happy I came to get a haircut here! Chris is so attentive and listens to what you want and offers suggestions on what he thinks would be best. I've gone to other places where the haircut was 5x worse and 10x more expensive. This place is such a gem and I'm recommending it to everyone I know. Chris is great to talk to and explains everything he's doing, and the best part is he truly, genuinely cares about how happy the client is. I'll definitely be a loyal customer! read more

I can't say enough nice things about this salon! I recently had my hair done by Deirdre, she did a stunningly beautiful job on my color. Deirdre is very knowledgeable about hair color and technique, she was very easy to talk to when discussing how I wanted to have my hair done and gave me some great tips on how to maintain my color and keep my hair healthy through the winter. She was a sweetheart to talk to while having my hair done and I couldn't be more pleased with how my hair looks! read more

Literally the only place I trust with my hair !! Courtney is an angel ! She has saved my hair ! I'm naturally a very brassy dark brown so turning into a Jennifer aniston blonde is really difficult for any hair stylist but some how Courtney nails it ! Have been going there for years. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a consistently great salon read more

I moved from SF a few months ago and needed a new hair spot. I work in the city and live in Astoria and was so hesitant to find a new spot because your hair is just, well it's so important and I've had back luck before. So I did some research and came across Crush. It was super easy to book an appointment which was perfect. I got my hair colored by Deidre who was amazing and Chris cut my hair. I couldn't be more happy. Not only did everything come out amazing, but they were super friendly. I received so many compliments this past weekend too. Can't wait to come back again soon but in the meantime I'm going to enjoy my fabulous hair. read more

Loved the energy as soon as I walked in - definitely welcoming ! I got my color done by Dee - she took her time and listened to what i wanted and it came out amazing!! All I get is compliments on my hair .. my new go to place ! read more

This salon is the greatest! It has a chill vibe and amazing staff. Deirdre did a brilliant job achieving the new look I wanted. I went from blonde to red in one visit and absolutely loved my results. I can not recommend her enough for color! I also returned for an amazing haircut by Chris. The staff at Crush are literally Crushing it!! read more

Came here today for a haircut with Angelique. I have been following her forever. She is like a wizard at blow drying hair for the perfect volume. She listens attentively to what you want and then definitely delivers on exactly what you ask for, if not better. Everyone at the salon was friendly and fun. Can't wait to drop by again for more haircuts to come. read more

Christina is great! Super fun / laid back salon playing great tunes. I was in good hands so I could relax and trust her judgement and appreciate how she works , will be back for a Brazilian blowout for sure . Told my hubs to come in and get a cut too! My new hair place for sure ! read more

I am really picky about my hair and super particular about who I trust to cut/style it, which is why it took me a year of living in New York before I found a salon I trusted. After walking past Crush Studio, I decided to look it up and was sold. All the 5 star reviews are totally accurate--Chris is amazing!! I emailed him after normal business hours and he was shockingly prompt in his response and super accommodating. He is seriously so nice and a total perfectionist when it comes to his work. I'm officially obsessed and will be exclusively coming back to Crush and recommending everyone I know to do the same! read more

Got a great blowout for my friend's birthday brunch and was very happy with it! Affordable, looked amazing (I got a ton of compliments, who doesn't love that?!) and had a wonderful time chatting with Chris while he worked his magic. Will 100% return! read more

Chris was great, not too expensive - Got the cut I wanted and he nailed it on the first shot. Will be back!

I stumbled upon crush as I was looking for a place that gave scissor cuts for men. This service I have had a difficult time finding. When arriving as a walk in Chris and the staff were extremely friendly and warm. Angelique cut my hair and gave me an amazing look. I will be back soon for my next cut. Angelique has given me one of my best cuts in recent years. read more

Chris expertly cut my fine hair. It was one of the best haircuts I've had in twelve years of living in NY. My mom now gets her hair cut by Chris and she is also very happy. read more

Go here! I am consistently happy with the haircuts I get from Chris, and I love his chill and fun personality and the warm, relaxed neighborhood vibe of the salon. read more

Chris was friendly and knew what he was doing. He didn't put any pressure for me to change what I wanted for my hair, like a lot of other stylists have done before. I am always nervous going somewhere new as I only get my haircut about twice a year to avoid the anxiety, but Chris immediately made me feel comfortable and asked a lot of clarifying questions so he could give me the exact cut I wanted. Definitely found my new hair spot! Thanks Crush! read more

Everyone is super professional and awesome here! They do great work, and are extremely talented. Pricing is just right and they are great with explaining the whole process. They give it to you straight, tell you what is possible, but do not push you past your comfort zone. Chris and Desiree are awesome as well! I grew up in salons and worked in salons. This place was great! Check them out, you will not leave disappointed, in fact you'll leave there feeling sassy and gorgeous! read more

I almost don't want to write a review because Chris is still a relatively best kept secret in Astoria. Crush opened on my block about a year ago and I'm so glad they did. Chris is an artist and is a genius with hair. I got a Brazilian blow out and it was affordable and amazing. This is a city quality cut in Astoria- don't miss out! Oh and they also did a great kids cut for my son as well. read more

Honestly - the best experience. Chris and his team were SO amazing! So welcoming, kind, personable and fun and made me feel so comfortable. I was very scared to try a new place and I am so happy that I went. This. Place. Is. The. Shit. read more

I've been getting my haircut by Chris (the owner of Crush) for years throughout multiple salons including Warren Tricomi. I now travel from the west side of Manhattan to get my hair cut at Crush. Professional, talented & great price for the quality cut! Comfortable atmosphere & I always leave more satisfied than my prior appointment! Dog friendly too! read more

Always such a pleasure to visit Chris for a haircut. Top service, I leave every single time extremely happy with my visit and haircut. Thank you Chris! read more

Chris and team are INCREDIBLE! Best hair cut of my life. Professional, fun, and very reasonably priced. You get a neck and scalp massage when you get your washed! I highly recommend- I'll never ever let anyone else touch my hair! read more

I've been looking for a great place in Astoria to get my hair cut, and this is it! Chris is great! Really talented and so friendly. He knows all of his customers and remembers everything about you. I take my son there (and he's very picky about his hair) and he loves it. I had my cut yesterday and was going to a wedding in the evening. I received so many compliments on it! I totally trust his judgement! Can't recommend this place enough! read more

I found this place on Yelp and requested an appointment from Yelp and Chris got back to me right away. I came in for a blowout and I was nervous at first cause I have tight curls and I've had my hair burned before. Chris assured me that wouldn't happen to me. So, I decided I would give it a try. Not only did I get an amazing price, but I got an amazing job done. To top it all off, I didn't even need a flat iron put through my hair!!! He's really amazing. Please go see Chris! He's very experienced and knowledgeable. All hair types!!! Thank you Chris! read more

This salon is edgy and fun with great prices and customer service! My bachelorette party all had their hair cut and styled! We we're all blown away at the work Chris did! His work with a scissor is shear brilliance! I would recommend him if you are looking for razor good looks and to get rid of your killer bed head! read more

First time stopping in and I had such a great time! The atmosphere is hip and young and so are the staff - especially Guilia! I gave her a hard job to cover up some teal-gone-wrong hair, and she did not disappoint! She was persistant, honest and gentle on my hair. Her patience showed in the final outcome for sure... I'd definitely highly recommend her and the salon in general! Chris (I call him Joey!), the owner, recruits the best! read more
