    Balayage by Anthony
    Allie G.

    This is my third time at Hair Throne, and my third great experience! The previous two times, I saw Amanda (who is extremely talented), but today my appointment was with Anthony, and I am thrilled with the results of my balayage. The staff here is extremely nice and professional, and take their time consulting with you before beginning the service. I recommend that you don't make plans for immediately after your appointment and expect for it to run over the allotted time (mine ran more than an hour over today), but the time commitment is absolutely worth the end result. Love this salon!

    Never been anywhere as amazing as Hair Throne! It's everything a hair salon should be! I've seen a couple stylists here but struck gold with Mykel! I've never waked out unsatisfied or disappointed with my hair. Mykel always makes sure my hair is in its best shape and color. Never loved being blonde more than I do now.

    $1008.00 not including tip. What could I have possibly done to my hair for it to cost this much? Balayage (on virgin hair) and a hair cut that didn't take more than 5 minutes. So let's start from the beginning. Making the appointment I was told I had to pay $325 (50%) of the service upfront. Day of the appointment I'm sitting in the lobby with no one in the reception area for about 20 minutes until a nice blonde girl walks in and asks if I've been helped. I tell her I have an appointment with Sakura. She lets them know and Sakura's assistant comes to get me (such a sweet girl throughout this whole process.) I meet Sakura and this is exactly when things started to go down south. Since this was my first time dying my hair I showed her inspo photos and explained to her I was very anxious since it was my first time. Her response was "if you're going to be anxious then I don't want to do your hair, it's supposed to be fun and I want to have fun.. not have you making me anxious" she then proceeded to say "if you have a bad reaction and your hair falls out or if you don't like it.. then we cut it all off.. it's not a big deal." Well, it is a big deal considering I take such good care of my hair and it has taken me years to get it to such great length. Her attitude, her eye rolls, and entire demeanor should have been the red flag waving at me to run out of that place. Also, I promise you, I was being so kind and vulnerable with her that her reaction made my eyes tear up. Sakura specified to me she likes to cut hair while it's dry. Yet, she started dying my hair first and telling me it probably be a little bit more expensive because of the length of my hair and her having to use more product. If that was the case, wouldn't the right thing to do is cut my hair first so that you use less formula when dying it? I don't have a lot of hair, I just have very long hair. But it was her way and she kept applying the dye. In yhe middle of all of this I used her fan that had a panda on it and mentioned how much I love pandas, and she tells me.. "ok you don't need to be so exaggerative about the panda" Then her and her assistant were talking to me about a song, Sakura said she forgot the lyrics.. so I played it on my phone and after 30 seconds she yells at me to turn it off. Everyone stays quiet and I'm literally so uncomfortable at this point, I don't say another word. While her assistant begins to wash my hair, the other hairdresser (blonde girl) starts talking about music and was so kind and welcoming, I started to wish she was my hairdresser instead. I feel like that's the type of relationship you should have with your hairstylist. Now it's time to cut my hair. Naturally I was nervous to cut it after so long, but I was smiling when I told Sakura "oh god here we go".. the minute I said that, she stepped back and with an angry/irritated/sarcastic tone and red face she replied " I don't have to cut your hair..you have an issue? You're too scared? I don't have to cut it." At this point she was really testing my patience. She ended up cutting my hair, but not in the way I asked her, though I was so tired of her entitled attitude towards me that I didn't say a word. She then took out the curler and started waving my hair for her tik tok account and even asked me to fix my makeup for her page. She took pictures, videos, made me pose in different positions. Then the bill: $683 on top of the $325 I had already paid. She charged for extra product which she wouldn't have used if she cut my hair first. $125 for a 5 minute hair trim. She charged me for the blow dry which I never asked for and for curling my hair that she did for her own tik tok/ instagram page. Did my hair come out nice? YES, but was it worth that price and the awful treatment I endured during the entire 6 hours that I was there? ABSOLUTELY NOT. After calling all of my friends who own salons in different states and telling them that I was charged over a thousand dollars for my hair, and realizing I was completely taken advantage of, I cried for hours. On top of it, she treated me like absolute shit.. didn't even offer me a damn cup of water. It was my first and worst experience. If you're going to come here, and you're nervous about making the change and you want a kind an empathetic hairstylist that you can enjoy the experience with.. please choose anyone but Sakura.

    dream long layers, bangs hair cut by lizzy!

    As much as I would love to gatekeep - this is the best salon in NYC. I've been coming here since 2019 before I moved to the city and have been consistently seeing Lizzy for my cut since I decided to try bangs in 2020. I don't even have to tell her what I want anymore - she understands my dream hair and I leave the chair with it every time. Now I can't even imagine myself without bangs and the style she graces me with and run to book an apt the second I see them growing out. She makes me feel so sexy and confident and I've never gotten more compliments by (guys & gals) on my hair. I even like to think of her as my first friend/comfort person in the city since I moved here in 2020 - whenever I'm in the area I always have to stop by for a Lizzy hug. Also started seeing Mykel for my blonde this year and the same goes... I'm obsessed with my color every time. She helped me get to the bright blonde I've always wanted but also keeps it so healthy and educates me on how to care for it. I no longer have a root - it grows out seamlessly without a line so I can go months without getting it lightened again. She's the sweetest and I'm so happy I finally found someone I can stick with and trust that I will always leave with my hair looking perfect! Bianca (the owner) is also the sweetest and so accommodating! Its been exciting to see Hair Salon grow and flourish and I couldn't recommend it more!!

    Very happy with my haircut and lightening session with Sakura! Her assistant Stephanie is wonderful too! Sakura works her magic on dark hair, showed her a photo and requested ash brown balayage with no orange (happens often with my dark hair) and was able to make it happen! She did set expectations for certain tones I was thinking of getting so I really appreciated that. I like the attention and personalized approach I received and that we were able to finish in 5 hours. Salon was clean and it wasn't too packed with decent spacing between others.

    My partial balayage
    Jessica E.

    Just got my hair done at Hair Throne for the first time and I love it!!! This location is so convenient for me and I'll definitely be coming back. I got a haircut and partial balayage. Got there at 2:30pm and was done a little after 6pm. Haircut is $120 and the partial was $250. Each stylist has their own rates. This rate is for Bianca! She's absolutely amazing and took care of me. She's also super friendly and has an amazing go-getter attitude. Hair throne just opened a month ago and she's killing it. The vibe is very happy - she's got an upbeat pandora playlist playing the whole time. Everyone was super nice!! See photos for how my hair turned out!

    Sakura helped color correct and fully change my hair on New Years Eve. My hair was so stubborn but she worked so hard to get it to a more natural color with more dimension to it. I had gone to another salon 6 months ago during covid shutdown when some shops just reopened as I was itching to change up my hair but they ruined it :( I will always stick with Hair Throne's team from now on. Followed them from when they were Bianchi salon and everyone is so talented. i chose Sakura because her work aligned with my vision for more natural brunette coloring and she certainly delivered! She is so nice too and very detail oriented. Would highly recommend going to Sakura. The salon is also very big and socially distant, they took temperatures and sanitized. I felt very comfortable!

    I have been coming to Janelle at Hair Throne since I moved to NYC over the summer and I am obsessed! Not only does she do a great job with my hair every time, but she is so fun to chat with. Best vibes all around. The whole salon is a super enjoyable experience.

    Brown to blonde

    Sarah Louise is so so gifted at what she does. Not only does she make your vision come to light but she does it better than you can imagine!! From taking me dark, back to light, cutting, adding layers, and styling she truly is the full Package In hairstylist form. Apart from her talent, she truly listens to your wants/needs, is so personable, professional, funny, and kind. Truly feels like the full salon experience. Glad to have found my forever hair girl !

    Ok, so real talk. As a native New Yorker I never had a "salon." I'd jump to the next one after the next after a friend gave a good rec or they had a good deal. IG told me about hair Throne where I signed up for the membership and I instantly fell in love. After becoming a regular I began to follow, Bianca, the owner after eyeing her work for some time. I finally pulled the trigger to have her perform some color magic on my hair and she nailed it. I wanted to draw attention to something major that really sets hair Throne apart from the rest. You know when you get your hair done you walk out of the salon feeling like a million bucks...until you wash it and have to do it yourself! Fast forward. I'm a YEAR later from my color and I STILL get compliments all the time. I've sadly moved out of nyc, otherwise I'd be coming in ever week for a blow out/touch up -- but I can't begin to express my love for their talent + hospitality. Run, DONT walk!

    Color/cut by Mykel
    Andrea B.

    I know the struggle of finding a good color specialist in NYC with such a saturated market- but I have been going to Mykel for about 5 years now and the thought of letting someone else color my hair has never even crossed my mind. She really takes the time to listen and understand what you want and look at photos together to make sure she can capture the look. She stays on top of her color/cut education and I literally get stopped on the street by strangers asking where I get my color done all the time. Mykel is honestly the BEST color specialist for blondes/balayage/hair painted looks that you will find. I can not recommend her enough! I always make plans after my visit with her :)

Appointments became rushed, started late, and lacked even basic professionalism. You're barely greeted when you walk in, and the overall tone makes it feel like you're inconveniencing them just by being there. I told them multiple times I had a head injury from a concussion and the lack of care was very concerning how abrasively they washed and handled my head. My most recent appointment was a complete failure. I asked for a warm, golden brown and came prepared with multiple reference photos. While the color was processing, I clearly flagged that it was pulling purple. That concern was dismissed, and the product was left on longer. The result was the darkest my hair has ever been, almost black with a cool, purple hue. The exact opposite of what I requested. The color job is all mismatched, the lower part of my hair significantly darker, the roots are sloppy and uneven. When I pointed this out, the response was defensive and dismissive. At one point, I was sarcastically asked if I wanted to "bleach it," which is an inappropriate and careless suggestion for already fine hair. It was mind blowing to have this handled so poorly and then be rushed through a cut that does not look anywhere close to the quality of the past cuts. I followed up requesting a refund, given that this will take months to correct and fade, and received no response for over 48 hours. It's not even about the money - it's about the severe lack of respect. What's most surprising is that this level of defensiveness and lack of accountability was unacceptable, especially after such a grave mistake. Instead of thoughtful adjustment and ownership, the response was dismissive in the moment and silent afterward. Mistakes happen. How they're handled is what defines a business. This was not handled well. NYC has no shortage of salons that can deliver both technical skill and professionalism. This is not one of them. Updating this with a pic and additional NYC HAIR SALON SEO terms so future customers are warned since the salon has decided to block me after no satisfactory resolution. The pic at the top right was me pre-hair f*** up. Only come to this salon if you'd like to come home and cry.

Reference this review and request her honest consultation for your intended style before getting a cut; I can almost guarantee you will be amazed by the end result.

The whole appointment (wash, cut, dry and style) took about an hour and cost $95 (I have relatively long hair, I believe they quote a price range to account for length). The salon itself was busy and a bit loud. It is very bright (likely because they do hair and makeup) and felt more like a party rather than a relaxing place/spa. They have a ton of staff so I was taken back right away. When I went, both men and women were there for haircuts and someone was getting their makeup done. I would absolutely go back and go to Senait again.
