My first trip to Insight today was for the hair wash treatment only. I just really craved a good, thorough hair washing and scalp massage, and while the experience fell a LITTLE short of my expectations based on the reviews, given the price it was pretty good. I saw other women getting more extended treatments, and I realized after that they must have gotten add-on scalp treatments and massages. I may give those a try next time I just want a wash, but I am definitely coming back for a cut and will give a fuller review of the experience when I do. read more

Insight salon - Add=ons - Hair Salons Near Me - Franklin Square, New York

I've been coming to this salon on and off for a while (maybe 8-9 visits), and at first the service was actually really good. But the last 3 times? Honestly... it's gone downhill bad. They NEVER do what I ask for. And I don't mean slightly off, I mean completely not what I requested. On top of that, I've gotten snarky comments about the haircut I wanted, which is just unnecessary. If you don't think a style will work, that's fine, talk it through, but don't make me feel stupid for asking. I've also noticed they always sit me in the chair closest to the door, which feels like the trainee chair. I completely understand people need to learn, but that should be something you ASK the client about, not just do it and charge full price like it's an experienced stylist. The last time I went, my hair was cut so uneven I literally had to fix it myself at home. And to make it worse, I had an event that same night... I couldn't even wear my hair the way I planned. (see attached picture) Also, I noticed Rick is no longer there, and honestly, it shows. The quality just isn't the same anymore. Super disappointing experience overall. I really wanted to keep coming here, but after the last few visits, I'm done. read more

It's hard to rate this salon as per I mainly go for roots, wash and blow dry. I have also done some trimming on my ends and I was very pleased with my service. It's simple and gets the job done for a reasonable price. My favorite is their hair wash service as they provided scalp massage, a ten minute shoulder and arms massage, as well as a quick facial, all while laying on a chair during the hair wash. This is mainly why I like ro come here. Their prices are also very reasonable. But as per hairstyles I'm not quite sure if this is the place to go but for simple hair coloring and trimming I would definitely recommend. Many of them don't know English but you'll find some that do. I didn't have any problems. There's also a parking lot so easy to find parking. read more

They do a great job on a blowout however they never take you at your appointment time. Also, the pit there tools on high heat so your hair fries. read more

This salon is very professional. Always on time. Always pleasant. Quickest blowout I've ever had. Can't beat the price.

Every time I go here either to get a cut, wash, blowout, or even dying it's always amazing. I've been going here ever since I left my old salon. Also whenever I show them a picture/pictures of what I'm looking for they always do an amazing job. I could never see myself going anywhere else. read more

I went here for my first time, and I will never go again. I arrived at the time of my appointment and they put three of their "regular" customers before me. I was waiting for over 20 minutes, and ended up having to leave before even getting my hair done. I asked multiple times when I would be taken, and they were very rude unprofessional. I was trying it out due to the low price for a blow out but would much rather pay a little more money and have better customer service. Would not recommend this place. Much better places to get a blowout then here. read more

Does anyone know where Rick went? I was told he went back to "China" but my gut tells me he left and I don't blame him. Management is rude and they definitely do not put the customer first, don't let Edward (manager) fool you when he responds to negative comments and tries to make it right, he would never do that in person. I want Rick! can someone help? read more

They have lay down hair washing stations super clean and friendly! Thanks to my cousin and coworker for recommending this place nestled in the parking lot I believe the girl who washed my hair was Daria. And the guy who blew it out was Rick. For an extra $6 i got a mini facial while getting my hair washed it was so relaxing will defintely be back again! read more

did nothing that i asked. i wanted just a trim with no layers to keep my hair long he continued to chop without asking if the length was ok and when i said it was short enough he continued to cut even more off. i only wanted not even a inch just the ends off and i left with 5+inches gone and layers i did not want. over all not satisfied and extremely angry. never going back read more

I have been going here for a few years and basically was happy. priced good and convenient location for me. Recently, I'd ask for a good trim about 1 1/2 "s and they wouldn't listen. I make an appt, soon get hair washed and sit in back and watch others go ahead of me. They would try to get me to go to someone else. Today , I had an appt for 10:30. I called to cancel and I was told they didnt even hav my name down. I think it was the manager Ed who made the appt.. Time to find a new hair salon! read more

Talented stylist. Very good at listening to what customer wants. Fair prices. I come from Brooklyn because Edward is so good at cutting hair and kind. read more

Insight salon - Keratin and chin length cut. Great look for a 70 year old:) - Hair Salons Near Me - Franklin Square, New York

They do a very good job for a very good price, but they can be very rude. I don't even know if they realize how rude they are, but they definitely need help in the customer service department. The way they make appointments makes no sense, because I'll make an appointment with no one in particular (just to make sure I have an appointment) but they will let someone walk in and be done before you and when you ask why, they say because you made an appointment time and you have to wait until that time. The only reason I'm going there is because they wash my hair really good and they get it more straight than any other salon. Also, the prices can't be beat. Beware of getting talked into getting special treatments or special shampoos. I said yes (I guess) to the shampoo lady because I couldn't understand what she was saying and I payed $6 more for special shampoo. I also got some kind of weird massage that I definitely didn't say yes to, but she got a little too close to my boobs and it was just weird. I'll take a shoulder massage any day, but I'm not interested in my chest or boobs being touched lol. It was my first time so now I know what I'm in for next time. If you want a real salon experience that you can talk to the hairdresser and get a response back that you can understand, don't go here, but if you want a blowout or a full head of curls for under $30 and you don't mind the bs then it's worth going here. read more

This place used to be great but has gone down hill. Prices are great but I guess you get what you pay for .... Hair washing gals are good, work for their tip however never see anyone sanitizing anything or changing gloves.. gross I have tried different stylists here but this weekend will be my last time going here. Not sure why they think slicking your hair back to cut it would make your hair even or make for a nice hair cut. I have to go somewhere else now to get it fixed but it looks crazy uneven .... Do better read more

I would love to try this salon but only after getting some pricing info for their services. However, their "website" is just a shell and contains no info. I found them on Facebook, sent them two messages requesting pricing but never got a reply in English - only received Asian writing/characters which I did not understand. I finally called and requested pricing info, and the person answering said I should make an appointment. I told her I wouldn't make one until I knew how much they would charge. I asked for their price for a touch up with a blowout for short hair. She started to quote a number of prices but I could not understand what services the prices referred to, due to her very pronounced Asian accent. I apologized and respectfully asked her to please repeat the info, but it was no clearer the second time. I am reluctant to even go in and try their salon because I don't want to suffer from sticker shock when they tally up my bill. They should perhaps list their prices on their meager website or offer to text or email a list to a prospective customer. read more

Not a very respectable place to go to! They cut my 14 yr granddaughter's hair 5 inches instead of what she asked, 2 inches!! Needless to say she was so upset!! When my daughter confronted them they tried to blame my granddaughter for THEIR Mistake!! They finally refunded my daughter's money but didn't apologize! Instead they told her she was no longer welcome to have services at their Salon. My daughter had been a customer since they opened & always took her 3 Daughters there too!! Absolutely unprofessional!!! read more

horrible I went in to get a haircut before summer I asked for 2 inches off and layers. instead I got 5 inches off! I have curly hair so when it dries I get about 3 inches of shrinkage so my hair now almost goes up to my shoulders when it used to go down to my chest. I am severely disappointed with these results and I will not be returning. read more

I had a 1:00 appointment for a wash and blowout. They took me promptly to wash my hair. While waiting for my blow out a women came in for a wash and blowout without an appointment. She was told it would be at least a half hour wait. She waited. Another woman came in for the same thing and also has a 1;00 appointment. Both of these women were taken ahead of me. When I questioned him I was told that they knew who they wanted to do their blowouts, so they go first. I have never heard anything so ridiculous. I tipped the girl who washed my hair and paid the 10 dollars to have my hair washed and walked out. Very poorly run business. Never again!! Appointments mean nothing here. Don't go unless you have a lot of time on your hands!! read more

Best place for getting your hair blown out! They also do color, cut and other hair treatments. Good prices and super clean. When they wash your hair they have you in massage chair laying down it is very relaxing. My hair was blown out by Jeff and it was amazing. read more

Insight salon - Best blow out ever! - Hair Salons Near Me - Franklin Square, New York

I went here for magic sleek - I've received this treatment in the past from other establishments with great results (lasting a couple of months) I would say the first week after getting this treatment my hair was good - I used the shampoo as instructed to use and didn't wash it too often so the treatment could last as long as it could but after a short while I saw a dramatic change and overall only lasted about 4-6 weeks - I was disappointed for the price I paid and time spent to have it done :/ This place also takes walk ins so I feel like I spent longer here than I had to because walk ins would come in the middle of my process and my hair dresser had to stop frequently to either help them or other clients he/she was simultaneously doing read more

Come here and DO NOT GO to palace a few blocks away! Insight was amazing RAYMOND WAS AMAZING IM obsessed with how my hair turned out ! Even though they were busy he took his time cutting my hair, checking in with me and how I liked it and also blew it out and curled it. He gave each strand attention and he did an amazing job. I'm grateful for not being rushed even though they were busy! read more

They have great services and I enjoyed the way they massage and wash your hair. However one of the things I found to be a turn off is when they feel the need to remind you to tip. I don't feel that is something to reminded about since it's common sense to tip the people who assisted you. read more

I gave this salon two tries for a blowout. Both times I asked for VOLUME, and they kept reaching for the straightening iron! Both times I had to literally ARGUE with the guy just to do what I asked and what I am paying for! They just smile at me like they didn't even hear me. I had to be on alert just to make sure they were doing what I asked. Way too stressful! read more

I visited the salon for the first time yesterday and had a blowout by Char. He did an amazing job and exactly what I requested. I will be back! read more

Terrible experience from start to finish. The owner was pushing the workers to rush through my blowout, and it was obvious they were more concerned with getting people in and out than providing quality service. The rushed job left my hair looking sloppy, and the staff's attitude was just as bad--rude and dismissive the entire time. read more

Wish I can rate zero stars!! DO NOT GO HERE!!!!! THE ONLY THING THEY CAN DO RIGHT IS WASH YOUR HAIR. THEY DO NOT LISTEN NOR UNDERSTAND ANYTHING!!!! Made me late to my event last time, and this time I asked for a semi-permanent glaze, wash, cut, and blow...they proceed to not put my glaze in after I TOLD THREE PEOPLE!!!!! I called the front desk & told him exactly what I wanted, I told the hair washer, and I told the stylist. They just nod nod yes yes. And what do you know, he starts blow drying my hair with no glaze. I stop him, and it was news to him that I was getting a glaze!!!! PLEASE AVOID TO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME. WILL NEVER BE RETURNING!!! Not to mention, first time they messed up I was not refunded, or accommodated, NOTHING. All they did was make me late for my formal event. read more

My son asked for his hair cut a certain way. Top cut with it shorter on the side. Not shaved. The guy started cutting and then shaved his the side of his head. It was nothing how he asked. He was visibly upset and told the hair dresser he cut it too short and didn't listen to him. It wasn't even straight. The hair dresser then told him, well maybe it's time for a new hair cut. Instead of trying to calm a situation he totally dismissed my son who was the customer. Poor customer service. Never mind they lost my son's business but now the whole family. The salon was empty....He wasn't who my son asked for in the first place. Just remember one customer tells 10 people how bad their experience was and then those 10 tell 10 more..... Worst haircut ever. GOOD LUCK WITH THE POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE. read more

Insight salon - Horrible hair cut - Hair Salons Near Me - Franklin Square, New York

The wash is Heaven sent. The blow dry lasts me a whole week and i workout everyday. The price is right as well. Only thing is i have recommended this way too much and now i can't no longer just pop in at any random time and get a wash and blow. Their scheduling is way off. Be prepared to wait even if you make an appt. Which sucks big time if you're pressed for time. Was excellent when it was my best kept secret. Once they adhere to their booking schedule they will be perfect. read more

Do not come here! The workers were very rude including the manager. At first refused to wash and blow out my clip in extensions than the manager told me this time only. They rushed and did a half sorry job. They kept telling me I should have come in earlier, but they allowed me to make the appointment one hour before closing. The vibe was off, I felt them being judgmental. It was not cheap either and I need to go get my hair fixed someone else. They cut my bangs horribly and jagged. They curled my extensions with a flat iron ripping them out of head and not caring I was in pain. Such a bad experience! My hair feels sticky and disgusting. My extensions are poking out on top. Such a horrible time. read more

The manager is very insensitive and rude. He is running business however he doesn't know how to talk and handle customer. Very rude. I understand they do business and it's busy. I was late. Explain that I came from hospital my mom was hospitalized. He did not listen to me he told me that your personal business I don't care about your business. He could have give me some alternative. His behavior is very bad. read more
