Lola is the queen of the curly cut. Ever since I put my hair in her hands three years ago my hair has dramatically improved. Lola taps into your hair's natural texture and gives you a cut that enhances it. She's so good I followed her to her new role at Gloss BK and I'm really glad I did as I sit here enjoying my perfectly executed shaggy layers and curtain bangs. The salon location is perfect and super cute. Don't hesitate to book! read more

I love Lola. She is my girl. Not only does she know how to cut curly hair like a boss, she is charming, funny, hot, and fun to be around. lol. Not to mention she's also an incredible matchmaker, if you should be so lucky... I shouldn't even be telling you that, but I'm feeling generous. Seriously: go see Lola if you want a bomb curly cut xoxo read more

Katie is the best! Having a mix of curly/wavy hair, I've had trouble finding someone who can get the layers and angles to blend well. Katie has cut my hair several times over the years and I always love how it turns out. Highly recommend! read more

3.5? Lola is a delight and the space itself is lovely, but my second (curly) cut with Lola was very disappointing. Didn't realize till I went home and did my own wash & dry. It's been 2 months since my cut & I HATE what's happened to it. I got *really* disjointed, unflattering layers, the opposite of what I was asking for. There's no flow. It's a very strange haircut. Again, she's experienced and sweet but she didn't listen to what I asked for. My partner and my sister have both recently remarked that my layers look disjointed and odd. I really hate it, and will try to fix it once my hair grows out a bit more. read more

Really lovely hair salon at Industry City. I got my hair cut here for the first time by Katie and wow did she do magic on my hair! It's healthy, thick, falls beautiful even with my often times unruly waves. And everyone was so friendly. Really wonderful experience and I'll definitely be back. read more

The reviews about Lola are no joke. I couldn't be luckier - day 1, I came home with the sexiest cut I think I've had in years. Then, she recently brought my hair to life with a fresh color perfect for my skin tone and overall vibe. She's not only amazing at what she does, but she's just great to be around with. She just gets it read more

I've been going to Lola for my curly cut for years and was super grateful to be able to follow her to her new space. Lola is a genius with scissors and I always get compliments for weeks after a refresh. Recently I stepped outside the box and got balayage for the first time. Lola matched the highlights to my skin and eyes perfectly. My hazel eyes have never looked this green! If you get an appointment with her you won't regret it! As for the space, it's super cute and spacious, and there is always someone greeting you when you walk in! read more

I had a haircut with Alyssa! She was great -- really took her time to make feel at home! I will continue to visit Alyssa. Also, the place is so lovely and airy -- just a very comfortable place for self care. read more

Megan has been cutting my hair and my husband's for a number of years and we couldn't be happier. His hair is tricky: thick, wavy (I know, brag a little). Megan gives him a great haircut every time. I'm lazy and only manage to make it in every 6 months or so. She never makes me feel bad about it and takes great care of me each and every time. I have a haircut I can manage and a husband who finally doesn't mind getting his haircut! Win for us. I would follow Megan anywhere, and having tried a different stylist at her last salon, we won't make that mistake again. She's worth the trip to her new location! Couple your visit with some furniture shops nearby, Sahadi's, Sunrise Mart and it'll be like a mini-vacation in your own city. Pro tip for visitors: if you are coming by bike, there's a rack on the corner of 36th and 2nd avenue that is huge with plenty of space (I missed it on the way in and don't want others to make the same mistake). Once the 4th avenue bike lane is fully extended, it will be a breeze to bike down here from her old Gowanus location. Until then, stick to 5th avenue - it was easier than slogging it on 3rd. read more

I used to see Lola at BirdHouse Salon so when I heard she was moving to Gloss Brooklyn I had to follow her to the new spot. The salon is easy to get to and the energy when you walk in is relaxing. Like always, Lola did a fantastic job. Lola is always sensitive to my needs as a client and lets me bring my own products so that my autoimmune disorder doesn't flare up. She always makes me feel beautiful and gives the most flattering cut for my curl pattern and face shape. I didn't know what I wanted to do when I came in and Lola knew exactly what to do! I feel and look fabulous with my Audrey Hepburn inspired pixie. She is a such a gem and I'm happy to see her in an environment that celebrates her talent! read more

Went in for a blonding with Alyssa and she was amazing. She was kind and lovely and really helped me decide what I wanted for my hair. The results were great and I'll definitely be back to continue seeing her! read more

Got a bang trim ~1 month ago and it felt pretty rushed. I asked the stylist at GB to help restore my bangs as they've thinned out over time with different stylists removing some density with each trim. Additionally, they were more curved than I wanted so I asked for a straight cut. The bang trim was pretty mediocre and had odd stray ends. Once I realized at home, it was too much of hassle to go back so I just fixed them myself. It was affordable though ($15). read more

I just want to start off by saying Megan is the shit. I won't let anyone cut or style my long thick wavy hair unless I know they won't butcher it, and I sure as hell won't be seeking said butcher stylist again after a first experience. Who needs a mushroom bob, choppy lob or whack layering? The 90s are in but bad haircuts are not (at least for me). Megan has always given me the best cuts I've ever had. She knows what to do with minimal information and gets what I'm trying to go for. She also understands my hair type and this is crucial! I followed Megan from the previous salon she had been based in and I will follow this girl anywhere. THANK YOU MEGAN. read more

Went to Melody to get a haircut - exactly what I wanted. Then went on a separate occasion and had Angelique do my blonde highlights - it was literally the perfect blend of blonde for my complexion/hair which is not easy! 10/10 will be going regularly. Also the salon is beautiful, spacious and relaxing. read more

I moved with Lola to Gloss. She has been cutting my oddly curly hair since May of 2021, and my hair has been thriving since. She has figured out how to work around areas that are super curly and areas that are straighter. She is also just awesome--I always enjoy seeing her. She is fun, funny, and caring. I recommend her to anyone looking for someone to work with their curly hair! And Gloss is in such a great location in Industry City, easy to get to. The space is open and airy, and everyone I have talked to there has been great. read more

If you're looking for a salon that will take your individual preferences seriously while also providing expert hair advice and services, you're in the right place! I met Melody a couple years ago (at her last salon) when I went in for my first blonding experience. As soon as we started talking about the plan, all my nerves disappeared. It was instantly obvious to me that Melody truly listens and cares about her client's hair vision. Since that first visit, I've moved out of New York City, but I return time and time again to the new studio (congrats Melody and Gina!) to get balayage, vivid coloring, and kickass haircuts. Whenever I plan a visit to NYC, I usually also book an appointment at Gloss. The salon is chic, yet cozy; the plants are healthy; the people are friendly, and the overall ambiance is cheerful. I always leave feeling beautiful and empowered! read more

Loved my haircut from Melodie. wngaged and excellent stylist l, great space, super chill. Reasonable too.

Lola is the absolute BEST!!! She seriously kicks ass every time! My hair is the perfect color and looks amazing for months!! On top of that, she is a great matchmaker! :p the vibe of the salon is also so relaxed and colorful, with natural light. I was greeted with a glass of Prosecco on arrival. I had so much fun! read more

Melody did my shag haircut yesterday and I love it!! I have had many shag cut done from other salons but nobody actually cut my hair following the natural flow of them ( which makes a lot of difference) it means that the hair will stay in place even when you do your blow dry at home alone!! Very happy I found this place! Melody was sweet and very attentive to my wishes. Definitely recommend them!! read more

100% recommend Lola at Gloss. I used to have such anxiety getting my hair cut but not any more! I have curly hair that I wear both naturally and blow dried, and Lola is so good at giving a cut that looks great both ways. I've been going to her for a couple years and every cut is amazing- I can tell her a general idea or something I've been thinking about and she'll work with my hair to do a killer cut. Gloss is also a great and super comfortable salon. read more

I've had haircuts by both Megan and Gina and every cut is great. They don't cut corners - every time they go the extra mile to style with waves, use good product and make recommendations on how to replicate at home. Gina is also the sweetest and their studio is adorable. read more

Crystal did such an incredible job with my cut and color, she really listened to where I'm at with my cut, color and hair routine and gave me exactly the cut and color I wanted and was so thoughtful and friendly and fun the whole time. I'm hooked!! read more

I've been going to Lola for years because she is simply the best so of course I had to follow her to Gloss Brooklyn!! Gave me exactly what I wanted which was a shaggy cut and a more chocolate brown so I am obsessed with. The service was amazing and i'll be going again and again read more

Gina is the best! She colored (half head highlights, gloss), cut and styled my hair and it looks better than it ever has. I won't go to anyone else after that experience. She understood what I was looking for perfectly and helped me correct my color after years of an old blonde dye job faded out. She's lovely to work with ad beyond talented. She was able to blend the old color gave me a natural and lifted look. Can't recommend Gina highly enough! Plus the salon itself is gorgeous and luxurious. read more

I usually go to Crystal to get my bangs trimmed. She does a great job and never disappoints. I got an actual haircut the other day. I got a shaggy, medium length haircut and I am IN LOVE with the way it looks. It's always great to see Crystal. She makes me feel very comfortable, it's easy to chit chat with her. I love the free pink starbursts that they have at the front desk. I love this salon, everyone is very welcoming! read more

Love this place. They recently moved down stairs so it's so much easier to find. I've gotten cuts from multiple stylists at Gloss and am satisfied with each person. The salon is clean, staff is friendly, fairly priced. Give them a try! read more

Melody has been doing my hair for years now and I was SO EXCITED when I heard she was opening her own salon!!! I have difficult hair to work with and have been turned away from salons in the past because I have thin, "ethnic" hair that stylists are afraid of (breaking?) I'm a also a big girl with a round face and Melody really LISTENS to what I want and LOOKS at my pictures, but she KNOWS how to implement it successfully to YOUR body and YOUR hair, if that makes sense. I'm Jewish so my hair is full, frizzy and curly and I really love the bright color trend!! Melody cuts & colors my hair and then teaches me how to keep the color the brightest it can be and make it last the longest. The colors we have tried so far are the rainbow, oil spill, blue ombré, purple ombré, I recently went to blonde because I'm trying to get a job in the airline industry and the traditional mainstream look is the only one they accept and I couldn't believe how well melody brought me back to a natural color! I honestly didn't think it was possible. I hope to one day try the denim if the flight attendant dream doesn't pan out. But either way I am an always and forever customer and can't wait to come back to Gloss!! Thank you Melody!! You're new salon is gorgeous and homey. I love the natural feel of all the plants and it's so sleek and clean. I'm going to need to hire you as my decorator too!! See you soon xoxo read more

Megan is the Pixie Cut Guru. It's really hard to find a stylist that can cut a pixie that grows in well and doesn't leave you looking like a Chia pet a month after your cut. She has been cutting my pixie for almost 2 years now and I wouldn't trust my hair to anyone else now... I had to follow her from her last salon;) !!! I also love that Gloss is in IC, where I can get a snack at the fabulous food court on the ground level and a cocktail at IC's distillery row post coiffing. read more

In the heart of industry city, a fabulous, boutique hair salon has popped up. Creative hair stylists who are true artists have created an urban oasis. Great location for just about any interest, I found lots to do in IC. Megan listened, colored and styled my hair perfectly for me. My hair has become a problem, and Gloss Brooklyn is my answer! I will definitely be back! Welcome to the neighborhood ! read more

Love this place. The location is on the fifth floor of Industry City, tons of great food and places to hang out before/after. The salon is beautiful, super breezy atmosphere, and wonderful staff. They'll offer you drinks, make sure you're comfortable, and take care of you. Gina is also absolutely the best, she really listens and checks in while she works. I've loved every cut I've ever gotten from her. Go check em out! read more

I have been going to Lola for years and she never disappoints. She always listens, takes her time, but also works fast. She does my color and my cut and is always able to figure out what I want based on my abstract, conceptual ideas. She is a creative professional. At this point I don't even have to tell her what I want (unless it's something completely different, in which case she listens and makes it happen). I just go to see her and let her work her creative wonder. She's taken my color from purple, to cherry bomb red, to a blazing sunset over the ocean (that's no exaggeration!!!). There is a reason why Lola is the hair bruja. She is truly magic. read more

I have been going to Gloss Brooklyn for almost 3 years now for color, cuts, styling, and even purchasing products. Gina and Melody are amazing stylists as they are business owners! I am very particular when it comes to my hair color and Gina always nails it with the perfect blonde. The salon is so beautiful and clean. 10 out of 10 would recommend coming here! read more

I've been coming here to get my hair cut by Melody for almost three years now. She consistently gives me the perfect haircut/exactly what I ask for. I've had several bad experiences at salons in NYC--this is the only salon that has actually felt relaxed, friendly, and positive. The new space is beautifully designed as well. Will definitely keep coming back here! read more

I have been going to Megan for 6 years now. She is awesome and so patient and talented. She takes the time to really understand what you want and then tell you what's practical for your hair type. She is always focused on health of the hair which is the most important thing. read more

Update: I'm getting married in a month and my hair has barely gotten to be past my shoulders after all these months if that gives you any clue as to how short the stylist cut it. I have to wear extensions on my wedding day which is so disappointing. Do not come here for a haircut. And yes, I take biotin every day lol. She absolutely botched my hair and I am furious that I trusted her. read more

We could not be happier with our multiple experiences at Gloss. Alyssa cuts my teen son and tween daughter's hair and makes them feel super special. They leave feeling very cool and confident. My kids are not easy when it comes to haircuts and are almost always upset when we leave a salon....until we met Alyssa! The atmosphere is awesome and who doesn't enjoy going to Industry City! It's a win win! Thank you! read more

I'm so glad I found Melody, who does a consistently fantastic job and who understood what I was after from the first time she cut my hair. It looks great leaving the salon, but more impressive, it continues to look great after the first time I wash my hair, when I style it myself, when I roll out of bed and just shake it out, and it grows out perfectly and still looks great after weeks! read more

I have been getting my hair cut by Megan for the past 2-3 years, and couldn't be happier that I have found her. I followed her here from her last salon, and will honestly follow her again if she ever leaves. At this point, I wouldn't trust anyone else to do the job because she is that good. I have very thick, wavy hair and she somehow works her magic where it's layered but not too layered. She also does incredible color, it's always natural looking but still really special. She always listens to me on what I want and I've never left feeling underwhelmed. It also is amazing that she's so lovely to chat with! I leave feeling so happy and that I got to catch up with a friend. Megan is worth the trip to Industry City, and I can't recommend her or The Gloss enough! read more

I had the best experience here! I got my haircut by Alyssa and she took my incoherent musings on what I wanted and somehow translated them into something I love. I feel like a million bucks! She was also so much fun to talk to (in a totally unintrusive way -- I fell asleep while she was blow drying my hair!). read more

I've been going to Melody for about 5 years now and she is amazing! I would definitely recommend her or any of the other stylists. The salon is super cute and since it's located in industry city there are plenty of shops to browse and places to get food afterwards. read more
