And when I walk in, it was more disappointing to witness the current client being talked into liking her hair. I didn't get any service. So it's perhaps not the most reliable review. But too many factors lead me to feel disappointed. I had to walk out and try different ATMs but my luck,.. perhaps a good thing.. I couldn't keep the appt. I called back to let them know, but no answer. It is what it is. But communication is the biggest damper here.

Was really hoping to find a good hair salon near me but unfortunately I had a horrible experience…read moreat this spot. This salon was disappointing at best and had very unfriendly service. Left feeling gaslit, with 1/3 requests completed, and now have to wait a year to grow out my hair for a proper cut again. I went to get a haircut where I asked for 6 inches off, 2 set of 2 inch layers, and angles. I also asked for the end of my hair to be "U" shaped rather than flat or V shaped. From the beginning, the store manager, Maggie (unsure of spelling) asked if I wanted my hair washed first to which I said no. I wanted a dry cut since my hair has light waviness and I wanted to make sure the cut would look good unstyled. I went to get my cut with one of the stylist who cut my hair. He was quiet for the most part and he asked very few questions. He did not speak much English. He sectioned my hair and went about cutting it but did not give me layers. He cut close to 8 inches off and made the hairline V shaped. He showed me the back in a photo, and I asked for the line to be softened into a U shape. He could not understand my request, so Maggie came. She said it doesn't look like a U because I didn't get a wet haircut. That logic made no sense, but I asked for it to be fixed. He proceeded to cut but started taking off more from the side instead of the center, which is where the hair needed to be trimmed to create a softer line and make the U shape. Maggie comes back and translates some more but ends up doing the cut since the other man was unable to understand. I also asked her to show me where the layers were. She then says three completely contradictory things. She said you can't ask for that after (I said my request very clearly upfront. My roommate was there with me and heard and also saw no layers, and she was the individual who encouraged me to ask again about the layers). They then said it was not possible to give layers with a U shape (now seemingly saying they can't make the cut as requested), and also said that there are layers but I couldn't see them in the photo they showed me. Telling me both I had layers and that my request was not possible/made later made no sense. Maggie starts to get defensive and say, again, I needed to have a wet haircut and says they are professionals with 20+ years of experience and know when a request is not possible. Mind you, this has been the haircut I've requested for the past 10 years and no other salon had had problems honoring the request. At this point, the salon's threading and waxing specialist (Pooja) comes out and asks what is the matter because it was clear there continued to be a miscommunication and she could hear Maggie raising her voice. She tries to help mediate, pulls me into her waxing and threading room to clarify what I requested as I was getting overwhelmed by the now 5 people talking to each other or at me about what I wanted/what I got. Pooja noted I definitely did not have face framing pieces or layers, but said given how much length had been taken off, it might make the cut even worse. She suggested to just ask for the angles again. I went and just ask for the angles again which Maggie did while continuing to comment on how unreasonable I was being. Regarding the angles, the man who gave me my cut did ask if I wanted bangs mid-cut, which I said no to, so I think he took that to mean no angles/face framing pieces. I can forgive why that did not happen immediately and do think they gave them after. This was the only request fulfilled. They cut off too much, did not give me a U, and definitely left me with zero layers. Not to mention, longer pieces of hair stuck out and the ends looked unfinished. Horrible experience and super unprofessional. Would not recommend to anyone for a haircut. Cannot speak to styling/coloring or their other services but I would avoid such overconfident and rude people in the future. My botched cut came out to $35. Will be going back to Chinatown in NYC next time for my cut. I had a great cut there last time for a more affordable price. It would be the same price even with tolls/LIRR ticket cost and tip factored in.

Found a gem during the covid season!…read more Wanted to get my hair done since I haven't been able to go to one for two years since I last got my hair done! This salon ONLY takes people by appointment which is amazing because this means no wait times and a safe environment to get your hair done!

Disappointing. Disrespectful. Never going back. And telling all my friends that I referred to ditch…read moreher, as well. I have been going to Debrah for nearly 4.5 years. I have been a loyal client and have referred her tons of business because I knew she was starting a new business out on her own. But after yesterday, my opinion has changed dramatically. Her business has increasingly been going downhill and her behavior toward her clients worse and worse. Yesterday she told me to BLOWDRY MY OWN HAIR. The only reason I obliged was because I was in so much shock. She took me an hour late and then went 2 hours over time when I told her I needed to be somewhere 15 minutes later and had to meet a client of my own. List of shocking behavior: 1. Insulting me 2 appointments ago as to why I went a few months without seeing her. I considered leaving her then. I should have. 2. She has no respect for your time. Increasing wait time (up to 1 hr). She turned away a client and made her come back 3 hours later. 3. Double booking and forgetting to schedule you in. (This has happened twice.) 4. Only cares about your money. She told the client before me that her credit card machine was broken but took mine 1.5 hours later after confronting her about her unprofessional behavior. 5. Her work has been getting worse. My haircut is not as great as it was a few years ago. There are many other better colorists who blend better than her and know how to do balayage much better than her. Dont waste your time here. I dont know why I kept going back. Her haircut is okay but you can find better. Her techniques and styles are outdated. I was shopping around for a new stylist, but I only went back because I was hoping my suspicions weren't true and I was used to her at this point. But suspicions of her unscrupulous behavior were proven correct. Debrah doesn't care about her clients. She has no integrity. And her work no longer warrants what she charges. If I am giving you my money, I expect respect. I asked around to see if I was imagining things. I felt so hurt and undervalued. But everyone agreed with me. You DO NOT treat your clients like this. Your client is there by CHOICE. And we also have the CHOICE not to be your client anymore. Don't get so comfortable that you feel you can disrespect people like this. Let this be a lesson. Be warned.

I called a few places prior to trying Luminous and they charge you for a cut and a blow out is additional! I'm sorry but I think it's ridiculous to charge for a blow out after someone is already paying for a service. But anyway!!! Not the case at luminous, my cut and blow was included with my cut and I found that business practice to be extremely fair! My hair is healthy and I will definitely be giving them more of my business. Thank you Luminous !
