    Ash blonde ombré by Tony
    Katy N.

    Tony has been cutting and coloring my hair for 6 years and I would follow him across the country if I needed to! I have never left his studio without feeling like a million bucks. I generally get ombré for color and his craft is so on point it stays fresh looking for months and months! He will give you exactly what you ask for, or if you're like me and don't know what you want, he will make you look GOOD as hell. He is creative, meticulous, professional, friendly, funny, and incredibly talented. His prices are also extremely reasonable for Nyc standards. Book here now!!!

    Toni is the absolute master. He took my hair from dark brown to an amazing silver/lavender blonde (see pics). I can't even explain how thrilled I am with my hair color. Also, amazing haircut. The salon is modern and simply gorgeous!

    I've been trusting Tony with my hair for over 4 years and as long as I live in NYC, FIBA will be my spot. Tony is professional, knowledgeable, honest and so very kind! We've experimented with a few different styles and each and every time I am so pleased with the outcome. Don't hesitate! Just book the appointment now!

    I absolutely love what Tony did with my hair! I haven't cut my hair in over 5 years and haven't had my hair short since Middle School! I was so nervous but Tony was very kind and sweet. And the end results were just amazing! Never thought I could pull this hairstyle off. He saw what I wanted it and explained to me what he was doing and why he was doing it. He even told me what to do later on my own.That definitely helped put me at ease. Loved this place. Will definitely be coming back!

    Studio FIBA is a new salon that opened up in LIC, in a neighborhood where there aren't many salons. As you walk in, the interior is beautiful, with a real plant wall, funky mirrors, and modern lighting. Tony, the owner and my stylist is truly an artist. He listens to what you want, assesses what your hair needs, and provides recommendations. He also explains the chemistry behind the color, which was really cool to hear. While in LIC, I try to do most things local - but while I have a local gym, dentist, and pharmacist, I always had to travel at least 30 min to get my hair done. No more. I'll be coming back to Tony and Studio FIBA. My hair is soft, shiny, and looks just like the photo I showed him when I walked in. I'm so happy with my new look!

    Tony is the best!!! I've been a loyal client of his for about 3 years, and I followed him to Fiba from his previous salon. I'm super particular about who I let touch my hair, but I have so much trust in Tony- he always does an such amazing job on my cut and color. Spending 4 hours in a salon is usually torture for me and super boring, but here it is a pleasure because Tony is an absolute gem!

    Tony is a pro! I was nervous because I hadn't cut or colored my hair in over a year, but Tony was so patient and made me feel comfortable. He recommended a brown chocolatey color to complement my dark black hair, incorporated some layers, and finished it off with loose, beachy waves - perfect for summer!

    I'm very picky about who touches my hair, and ever since I found Prime One and Roy and his team,…read moreI've been a true regular. I go at least once a week, and always before I fly out. Roy is the biggest reason. He's so detail-oriented and always gives me the perfect beachwaves. No matter how busy it is, he makes me feel like a priority. Jennifer has washed my hair most often and she's thorough, with a great scalp massage. She even lets me pick how long my blue shampoo sits (yes, I bring my own products, LOL). The rest of the team is just as attentive. The salon is spacious and clean, and the all-Asian team is warm and always does their best for you. I just wish I had taken my Mandarin lessons seriously so I could chat with them properly! Thank you Roy and team for always making me feel like a VIP customer. See you again in a few days!

    We came here for my friend after checking the Yelp reviews, and at first we weren't totally sure…read morewhat to expect, but we ended up being really happy with the result. The haircut came out super nice, and they also lightened and added three small highlight pieces. It was such a small change, but it completely changed the whole vibe of her hair. We paid around $120 total including tip for the haircut, lightening, and the three highlights, which honestly felt like a really good price for everything they did. Everyone was really nice and attentive, and they still try to take care of you even if you're a walk-in. It does get pretty busy though, so I'd definitely recommend going earlier if you can. Really good value for the price and we loved how her hair turned out! :))))

    My first experience here was phenomenal. They got very close to the platinum blonde I wanted, and I…read moreleft extremely happy. Because of that, I returned for what was supposed to be a simple root touch-up. Before starting the second appointment, I've received compliments from other hair stylists on how healthy my hair was. I've consistently been told my hair is thin but healthy, and I've worked very hard to maintain it. Unfortunately, this visit was the complete opposite experience. I was at the salon for over six hours, significantly longer than my first visit. Multiple stylists were working on and checking my hair throughout the process, and I trusted that everything was going smoothly. No one checked in with me to approve the color before beginning to blow dry. When I finally saw the result, it was far from the platinum blonde I requested. Instead, my hair was left an orange-toned blonde. I had gone in for a root retouch, but they dyed my entire head without discussing that with me first. After I expressed concern about the color, I was suddenly told my hair was "very damaged" and breaking easily -- despite having complimented its health before starting. I was then told I needed a keratin treatment in order to proceed. This was not something I requested or agreed to; I was told it was necessary after the damage had already been done. During the wash, I could physically feel excessive pulling, and when I stood up, I saw a significant amount of my hair had fallen out. It was heartbreaking, especially after taking so much care of my hair. They attempted to adjust the tone, and while it became somewhat more acceptable, I ultimately left just blonde -- not the platinum blonde I originally had and specifically asked for. There was no apology, no acknowledgment of the distress caused, and no adjustment to the bill. I paid full price for a service I was deeply unhappy with. To make matters worse, I later received a voicemail asking me to return and pay for the keratin treatment -- something I never wanted and was told I "needed" after their mistake. Even in that message, there was no apology. My first experience was wonderful, which makes this even more disappointing. Unfortunately, after this visit, I will not be returning

    Absolutely the worst salon experience I've ever had…read more Do yourself a favor and do NOT come here for balayage, bleaching, or any type of color service. They make a lot of promises at the consultation, but once they start working on your hair it's clear they don't actually know what they're doing. First of all, they did not even do a test strand, which is the most basic step when you're bleaching someone's hair. Instead, they went straight into it and completely fried and burned my hair. My hair is now damaged because of their negligence. The color I ended up with looked NOTHING like what I asked for. I showed them clear inspiration pictures, and what I got was a completely different color and tone. It honestly looks like something a beginner would do at home, not something you pay salon prices for. To make it even worse, the whole service felt rushed and careless. It felt like they were trying to get me out of the chair as fast as possible instead of actually doing the job properly. And the most ridiculous part? They still expected me to pay the full price after completely ruining my hair. I attached pictures of what I asked for vs. what I got, because it's honestly shocking.
