This was easily one of the best experiences I have had with getting my hair done as an African…read moreAmerican woman with 4c hair. My hair is a literal nightmare rats nest to handle. I have always worn it straight but struggled to tame it and keep the frizz down in New York weather. Marlene was truly a blessing. I scheduled an appointment with her quickly and over the phone she explained what she does. I wanted to get a Botox treatment and she explained where it was from and how long she had been working with it. When I came to the salon, she had a mask and there were social distancing protocols in place. Everything was cleaned for me and I wasn't worried about risk of the virus. When I first came there was one other client who raved about her and she had thick long beautiful hair. I was watching the time that Marlene put into caring for her hair and I was so impressed that I immediately felt at ease. She told me she has been seeing Marlene for years, and now I truly understand why. The wash was really thorough. I felt my scalp was squeaky clean. She is meticulous about every step and explains what she is doing and why she is doing it. You can tell she takes her job very seriously, truly cares for her clients, is very precise and detail oriented and loves what she does. After the treatment when I say, my hair has NEVER IN MY LIFE LOOKED BETTER. I mean it. I have never felt my hair so silky and frizz free in my life. When I say I could literally be in rainforest and not a hair would be out of place, I mean it. She wrapped my hair for me and showed me which products to use. She also gave me super detailed after care instructions and let me know when and why I needed to schedule my next appointment. Not only that, she genuinely cares that you are happy, she doesn't just chop off your hair with no warning and checks in with you throughout the appt. It has been so hard for me to find someone that I am comfortable with to do my hair because I can be so picky. And now that I have found her I doubt I will ever go anywhere again. If you have curly, kinky or textured hair and want it bone straight, healthy and full of body - Marlene is the woman to see.

He didn't use harsh products and my hair was silky and soft afterwards. It didn't feel like it was dry or will either in the next few days. I felt like I don't need to use hair masques to maintain the moisture. I really loved how my hair felt. He's amazing. I recommend him all the way. He's very friendly and really cares for your hair.

I CANNOT BELIEVE I WAITED THIS LONG TO DO THIS REVIEW!…read more This place is A M A Z I N G. Peter is amazing! I got balayage from this place in Dec 2015. And I can tell you it was the best salon expierence I have had. Peter is so attentive and really cares for his clients. He made me feel like a princess! Listened to what I wanted and was honest about what the outcome would be. He's well educated about what will work for your hair texture, skin tone, etc. He cares for your hair and its health. And the best thing is he hates BLEACH! He uses an oils based lightener for your hair and your hair comes out feel soft and smooth. 8 months later my color is still there, hair is still in good condition too. I recommend setting up a consultation with him. You can tell him what you want and he will walk you through the plan. Price wise, it is just a tad bit pricy, but still affordable compared to other high end salons. In my opinion you pay for what you get. Yes, there are other salons in the area that will do it for less but the results won't be on par and most likely you'll leave with damaged hair, worse than what you started with. WHAT I PAID: During my consultation Peter told me I'd be paying $180 or $190 (can't remember) My hair was below my shoulders and I wanted balayage. The price included wash, cut, blow dry and balayage. He even dyed my eyebrows to match my new color. I think that's a great deal considering how many services are included and the amazing results. But of course this doesn't include any tips. I left paying $230-240 and I think they deserved it since I was so happy with the work. There is a woman who works very closely with Peter he calls her his protégé, and she's awesome too, really gentle with the hair and helps Peter out a great deal. I can't say enough good things about this place. I will be making a another visit here, hopefully soon. The only downside to this place is its CASH ONLY. So be prepared to bring a hunk of cash for the appointment. Im gonna attach pictures showing you all how the hair looked from the day I got it done to a few days ago. I did get a haircut a few weeks ago but the color it still great.

I have thin short hair and she did an excellent job blowing out my hair with curls and moisture. Unfortunately, the second time was with Maria, which is VERY nice as well. So nice that I feel bad to write this review but feel I must for the next customer. Maria may only be able to handle a certain demographic or type of hair. Short thin hair is not straight by nature is not her expertise. The job was done quick, which is nice, but my hair ended up looking completely dry and unmanageable in the back.

Dora did a great job on my make up, especially since I was in a time crunch and gave her one hour to complete me. She curled my hair with an iron and it looked amazing when she finished!!

And a heavy smell of hairspray-they really overdo it, which hopefully keeps the style longer; i only wish I had a mask or they opened the doorfor a bit.

Plus his interest in makeup and beauty overall really helps if you're ever lost for a new hairstyle.

But they do have nice color options. One thing I do have to say is that when you do make an appointment it's best to do it in person so they know who you are and that way there isn't confusion.
