Before I moved away, Joey Battisti was my only go to hairdresser for: color, conditioning, hair pieces, straightening, blow outs to make my frizzy frizzy hair silky smooth and full and lovely even though it was thin and prematurely gray. Not only was Joey super talented he was the handsomest, most engaging, charismatic and caring person. Who else would step in at the last minute and create hair pieces for our Maltese dog who performed in operas at The Metropolitan Opera. No one else can come close to this most gifted hairdresser and I miss him still. read more

Joey did my hair for a wedding I was in - My hair is thin and fine; not too easy to work with but with Joey you would NEVER KNOW IT. I don't know how he did it; he is definitely a savant in his field. He was the most relaxing and dedicated stylist ever. He was extremely professional, clean, efficient, committed to your happiness (and not in a patronizing way -in a very candid and genuine way)... did I mention he's devilishly handsome? #whatsnottolove I cant thank Joey enough for being so accommodating to mine and my fellow bridemaids requests. Everyone was so very happy and so very beautiful!! Beauty comes at a price but the experience that is 'Joey,' is worth far more than money can buy!! read more

My hair has never looked so shiny and healthy! I also had spa services by Laura and couldn't be happier with the results. read more

I came in today at 1pm for my brow appointment with Raquel, and let me tell you guys this ... she is thee BOMB! I've been in search for someone to bless my brows in the growing process and she did just that without direction. My brows are now in the hands of the brow slayer lol You get what you pay for honestly, $5-$8 brows I was use to. Definitely an upgrade and I'm happy I finally found someone who I can trust. Thanks again! Xo read more

My daughter recently got married and we hired Joey to come on site to do all the hair. He was on time, very professional and brought everything that was needed and more. We had a lot of different personalities and he was just wonderful with everyone. He is fun and extremely accommodating. THE HAIR was absolutely amazing!!! 5 star all the way. All day my guests were commenting on the girls hair. Who did their hair? was the most frequently asked question of the day. He is also a master at extensions WOW!! Now this all comes with a steep price, but who wants to skimp on a wedding day? NOT ME!!! YOU ABSOULETLY GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. I would HIGHLY recommend Joey and his salon, what an amazing experience!!! read more

Amazing salon, super friendly staff and Joseph was the nicest owner and host!! I loveeeee the way my hair came out. I will definitely be returning and recommending to friends!! Thank you to Joseph and Nicole =) read more

Joey was nothing short of incredible. As a bride, you just want so badly to have everything you dreamed of and Joey contributed to my dream in a big way. He really listened to my vision and then made it even better with his own creativity. He was timely, professional, cleanly, and honestly a lot of fun! I'm so glad that I opted to go with a high end service provider because it really makes all the difference. read more

Joseph Battisti Salon - Three heads all done by Joey! - Hair Stylists Near Me - New York, New York

I am so happy with the haircut I had this week from Joseph himself! I had my bangs cut a week prior so I really wanted a cut that matched my bangs. Joseph not only gave me a stylish cut, but added layers to match my bangs! The price for a cut here is not cheap BUT it is SO worth every penny! If you're looking for a top notch salon in NYC, this is the spot. Considering I have to be on-camera often, I am definitely coming back to this salon for my future hair cuts! Thank you so much for such a wondering experience! read more

Although it's located in a hidden little residential spot in the UES... This locale does not disappoint! Simply gorgeous and quaint. My fabulous eyebrow guru Raquel has now moved to this location (previously worked at Benefit brows). This is my 6th time coming to her and she's honestly shaped and recreated my brows into nothing short of fabulous! Come see her or make any appts with her via her email: Raqcampbell22@gmail.com Hope this helps! She's a star! read more

Love this neighborhood, love the restaurants near by and because of that I stumbled across this cute salon! came into this place looking for a trim and blow dry, had the pleasure of meeting Nicole!, sweetest cutest little lady, she gave a very nice trim I must say, added her own flair, gave suggestions, did some more than what I was expecting and I really appreciated that! Gave a beautiful blow dry and I was ready to go! I will definitely come back for an actual cut and perhaps some color! Everyone was lovely in the salon, the receptionist and all! I think I may have found my new salon! read more

I visited Joseph Battisti salon in the upper east side recently and had a beautiful blowout done by stylist Megan Richardson. My hair looked fabulous! My only wish is that I had somewhere fancy to go that night :-) The salon, although smaller than others I have visited, feels just big enough and really delivers on making you feel special and appreciated. It is beautifully decorated and smells so good inside. My blowout began with a nice shampoo and head massage. Megan really took her time on my blowout and she gave as much love to the last strand she dried as she did to the first. My hair had volume and beautiful curls at the ends. I felt fabulous. This is especially great since I have A LOT of hair that is not very easy to blow dry. Thank you Megan :-) read more

A good friend recommended that I try Joey at his new salon in the UES. While there I was able to see him work on someone before me and I have to say that he is truly gifted at what he does. Fun to chat with as well. He does work fast so if you are limited on time it's a great spot for that as well. I'll be back. read more

Bout a Gilt Deal...I liked the woman who cut my hair (forgot her name). I am in need of a new person because my stylist moved (so sad). Anyway...this stylist was great she was able to talk me through my indecisive hair woes and really worked with me to explain why I shouldn't get the haircut that I think I want. At the time I was just over the conversation but I tell you, now I am so happy she was adamant. My hair feels thicker, it looks better than it did before...all from changing how I was cutting my hair! I take away one star because she talked a LOT!! I kind of wanted to chat a little then just enjoy my hair cut. Then...I wasn't offered a glass of water, wine, tea..etc until I saw someone else get it, I had to ask for it! And the blow dry was not the best...in fact I hated it. (YIKES, I feel bad saying that). Everyone wants to blow my hair out with a small roll brush and make these Shirley Temple curls. I am like 90 .... no one wants that!! EVER!! I go in asking to come out looking like J.Lo and instead I look like a frizzy 9 year old girl. I have another deal with them and I will try out a different stylist....will update my review when I return. Otherwise...the salon is great. It's relaxing. Just what you want in a salon. read more

The salon is beautiful! Genaur is sensational... He listened to my thoughts and gave me a perfect haircut! read more

From the moment I walked in shaggy haired to the moment I walked out looking like a million bucks, I felt welcome, comfortable, and without a doubt that I was in the best hands. I got my hair done by Megan. She was very kind, extremely helpful and knowledgeable, had incredible attention to detail, and was fun and interesting to chat to. If she is any indication of the rest of the staff, then look no further than this salon. read more

Upon entering, Joey follows all the proper COVID protocol. Once inside, you can't help notice the chic aesthetic of the salon. Joey has been my stylist for about 12 years. He always listens to my requests and comes through each and every time. This week he did color, a beautiful rich brown, and a haircut. I left there feeling like a million bucks. It just doesn't get better than that. read more

Joey is the best! I was a bridesmaid in a wedding recently and was nervous the hair dresser would have a hard time taming my hair. I have curly/wavy hair that always has a tendency to frizz if it's not handled correctly. Joey knew exactly what he was doing and was so fun and professional. Not only did my hair look exactly how I wanted it to, but it also stayed all night without frizzing! Joey did an amazing job on all the bridesmaids and he wasn't happy until EVERYONE was happy. You could tell he genuinely cared that we all felt confident and beautiful. It was definitely a little pricey but I'm so happy I bit the bullet and went with him I would do it again in a second! read more

from straw to satin! I got a cut & blow with a gilt voucher and can say, it was worth the $150 standard price! I have super curly, frizzy hair and he masterfully worked it all out! If you're looking for a chatty stylist, (lucky for me, I prefer silence) maybe he's not the one but can confidently recommend what he's there for... hair! thanks to front desk, Jayme for the smooth check-in & out! xo read more

I've lived in New York for 20 years. I've gone to almost every major hair salon. The haircut and dye that I received from Joey has been the most complimented hair style I have ever received. I will be returning. read more

Worst man ever. Her mediocre services are so overpriced. He just opened his own salon and is trying to make a quick profit. I would never come here again or suggest his salon to ANYONE. read more

Without question Joey does the the best extentions in NY. I have thin, thinning, frizzy mostly gray hair and not much of it. After Joey is finished I have supermodel hair. Beautiful, thick, shinny brunette hair with waves past my shoulders. This man performs miracles. I come all the way from DC for his services, I highly recommend. read more

Among a city of a million places to get your hair done, this place is a gem! I came here for a consultation for the Magic Sleek treatment was expecting to speak with a stylist for ~15-20 minutes. About an hour later I walked out with both Magic Sleek and Keratin treatments on two small sections of my hair to test each of them. This was done directly by Joey himself. He was phenomenal - honest, patient and super thoughtful in answering all of my questions. Ultimately he wanted me to understand that everyone's hair reacts differently with each of the treatments and therefore see for myself which was right for me - if either of them. If you want outstanding customer care, amazing service and humble people, come see Joey! read more

I am so happy that Joseph hired Nicole as one of his new stylists. She has been my hairstylist for over 10 years. Whenever I get a haircut everyone raves about the cut, and how amazing it looks. She isn't afraid to give you you suggestions and input on a new look, or how you should style your hair. Not only is she great at cuts she did a great job on my highlights. I'm a virgin when it comes to hair color and I put all my trust in her and now my hair looks very sexy and awesome!! The salon is very nice and quaint. It is not meant to be a salon that has a lot of hussle and bustle going on- it's more of a relaxing atmosphere where there is also a peaceful garden in the back. Definitely worth going to if you are looking for a new salon, and a new hairstylist- Nicole Chan :) read more

Amazing products! LOVE the Freddy Wax. It really is one of the only hair products I'll use, gives a nice texture without making my hair look wet or goopy, which is exactly what I like. A+ read more

I was referred to Joey through a good friend of mine that used to see him religiously in Rochester. She sent me his information after I moved to the City and I thought I'd give him a try. Although I'm not 'picky' about my hair, I do know what a good cut and color looks like. And Joey was able to provide that service. For the first time in many years, I'm actually looking forward to my next cut and color! Thanks Joey! read more

We were visiting family this weekend in the city and they recommended Joseph Battisti Salon. We were able to get an appt. with Joey and he was so fabulous. I loved my blowout . This salon is wonderful, and very roomy especially for NYC. He was so friendly as was his staff. I would definitely recommend JB Salon to anyone in NYC. read more

I have had the pleasure of having two stylists from this salon do my hair. Joe styled my hair for a wedding I was in. It was gorgeous! He was able to create a beautiful up do that stayed all night, despite the torrential rain. He was so complimentary and professional. Megan has also been my stylist on a few occasions. She is amazing! I always get compliments on my hair. She gives great advise and has provided some extremely helpful hints in day to day maintenance. Whenever I'm in NY, I pay a visit to this salon. It's adorable and I know I will walk out confident I'll have beautiful hair. read more

I've never had a cut like this before. The owner might be good, but if so, he shouldn't let the stylist I had near his reputation. I don't think she's been to classes for hair at all. In advance, we talked through what I wanted, which was a trim of the cut I had to remove dead ends. That seemed mostly okay, but after washing, she only combed part of my head and sort-of half-did a part that wasn't straight. Didn't ask about where I parted it and gave me a little attitude when I asked if she could make it straight. Then she proceeded to snip from left to right all the way around and not once did she move my hair around to check if it was straight! (Spoiler alert, it's definitely not) No combing it to the back to make sure it's even across the back, nor forward to check the front. The part stayed undisturbed the entire time. I mean, lord, I've watched a Tabitha show once or twice so even I know you're supposed to cross check it. What really makes me give 1 start is that when I asked that she even it out, she was insistent I was wrong, and wouldn't even try to do anything about it. After asking a half dozen times I gave up and left. Oh, and also the "blowout" I received... everyone knows to point the hairdryer down the shaft or you get flyaways... everyone but her. And she used zero product. Not even hairspray or volumizer or gel or anything. Honestly, this was such a ripoff. I had friends in college who made a better show of it. I would never, ever suggest this salon to anyone. Very disappointing. read more

I bought a girl deal for highlight and blow dry and had an iffy first experience with one of the Stylists (not Joey) BUT BUT BUT Joey had me come back less than 24 hours to fix what I wasn't happy with and I left feeling SO much better and with my hair looking great. He, the woman at the front desk and June were all wonderful. So friendly and really kind. Joey did a wonderful job listening to what I like and wanted about my hair and made my hair look great. I absolutely recommend this salon, even after a not perfect (but not horrible) first time. Joey quickly worked his magic and made me feel and look good. They were so accommodating and Joey is fabulous at what he does. And he also gave me shampoo and conditioner to try. Hope to give five stars next time. read more

I received the best haircut and partial color from Megan! I came in with long flat hair and she completely transformed my look by the time I left- she is a true hair artist. She even took the time to go over how to style my new hair at the end. If you are looking for a high quality salon with extreme attention to detail, this is the place and worth the money. read more

I am completely in love with the work of Joey and his amazing staff. I'm super particular and have had long hair my entire life. Needless to say, I'm not crazy about change. The shape is perfection (and still long) and watching him create it was nothing less than art. Not only has it always been long, but I've never colored it either. I can tell ya'll that for a first-timer it was a dream. Joey is a master. I don't live in NYC anymore, but I never want anyone to touch my hair again. read more

I was floored by the talent and professionalism of this entire salon, especially Joey. He is an absolute doll. Friendly, sweet, and has a way about him that you will feel like you've known him your whole life. How can it be that this extremely special person also made me feel more naturally beautiful, like the best version of my real self, that i have ever felt?? Worth every single cent. I will absolutely keep coming to Joey as long as he lets me. My color and extensions are absolutely immaculate and are looking AMAZING at two months in! Professional grade all the way, everything. My hair is blonde and thin so filling it in and lengthening while not being able to see the bonds when i wear it up were essential and he completely nailed it. And! they give you some amazing wine to sip on while you're hanging around! Really cannot recommend this salon enough, wish i could give more than 5 stars. read more

I've been going to Raquel for brows and wax for over 7 years. Indeed, this woman saved my brows after my first year in NYC when I was going through my trials with finding a new esthetician. After one session, I was hooked! And let me tell you, Raquel will not only make it a pain free experience but she will make you feel and look beautiful! And let's not sleep on the girl's make up skills! This MUA is incredible with her vision and utilizing her application, blending, and contouring skills to produce that WOW factor! From doing wedding parties, to girls night outs, tv appearances, and just because she definitely slays! I highly recommend Raquel Chaylan Beauty for anything and everything pretty! read more

I just had the best cut and color from Joseph Battisiti. He was amazing. My hair has never looked so good and feels so smooth. He is so good looking so I was so distracted while he worked on me. The salon is so beautiful and so clean. I cant wait to go back. I look in the mirror and I cant recognize myself. Thank you so much Joseph. read more

Live one block from salon and thought I would give it a try. I told hairstylist not to cut hair shorter then my ear. I said, "think you are cutting it too short", reply was "don't worry". Of course, I was right, it was Way Too Short. For the prices they charge, I thought I would get a great cut. What a mistake!!! This is one customer who will never go back. read more
