It's a super overpriced hairsalon. They try to make it look upscale, but there is nothing upscale about it but the price tag. I booked an appointment on Saturday afternoon, last minute. Was surprised I got in so easily, considering the weekend. Initially requested a highlight that was listed as $240+. The master stated something around $300 after looking at my hair. Apparently, nothing is included in that price, so I ended up paying over $400. Does the color like nice? It's fine. Does it worth $400+? Not at all. The master was fine but I can't justify the price. They offer a discount of 10% to the first time clients. Doesn't help at all. Feels like they add 20% to the total bill to give you 10% off. Rather than that a clean place. read more

Suela is incredible!! I've been going to her for years for cuts and she does a wonderful job! The interior of the salon is clean and comfortable and the entire staff is professional and friendly. I highly recommend!! read more

Sara did a great job fixing my balayage color that was done at a different salon and gave me a great price for the time and quality of the work. I will definitely be coming back to her to get my touch ups done from now on! read more

Sandra is awesome :) She has done my natural-looking blonde highlights three times so far. She was able to understand what I wanted and deliver a great result when the other salon I went to couldn't. She is also very sweet, friendly, understanding, and knowledgable. The whole salon in fact is great and I recommend it! Of course I will say the price is a little steep, but honestly I think that is what you can expect to get in a Manhattan salon. I'm happy I've found someone I can go to regularly that I can trust with my hair. read more

Sandra worked magic on my hair! Not only is she very talented, but she is very knowledgeable and knew exactly how to work with my hair, which is white around my hairline, salt and pepper in the middle section, and brown in the back. Sandra is extremely kind and friendly. I felt very relaxed and look forward to having her continue to color my hair. I highly recommend Sandra. Kolorbar on 72nd Street is fortunate to have her, and I am very happy to have found this Salon where everyone is friendly and the atmosphere is peaceful. read more

I've been here before for color (Giovanni is AMAZING). Unfortunately the cut experience was not the same. While my stylist was nice, I asked for a blunt cut and got the most uneven, choppy haircut that I now have to go elsewhere to correct. What's more is the service for a shampoo and cut is $45 and my total "with tax" $54. I was in the midst of a conversation with the stylist so I didn't realize it until I saw it on my bank statement. $54 total on a $45 bill is 20% tax - NYC is 4.5% tax for salons, so they threw extra charges in there and never emailed me a receipt. Before you ask if it was the tip, it wasn't. I tipped her on top of this. I didn't get a blow dry because I live down the street, so I didn't realize how rough it was until I had a few days to sit in it. It was so uneven in the front, I had to cut an inch of hair off of one front piece for it to match the length of the other side. Below you can see my blunt "all one length" haircut. It's long in the back and underneath, the length I wanted in the front. I've now been put in the position to pay for another haircut which is super unfair. I've had some really horrible experiences with haircuts in the last year - I expressed this to my stylist. I didn't realize this would contribute to my fear of people not listening to what I ask for. Super disappointed. read more

Sandra at Kolorbar UWS did a fantastic job of helping me transition to my natural salt and pepper after years of color and highlights. Shes knowledgeable, and experienced knows exactly what I want. Cut...color...toner..blowout, she does it all. Highly recommend her! read more

I am absolutely blown away by this salon! This was my first time here and they will definitely be my go to from here in out. As soon as I walked in, everyone was so friendly and welcoming. I was introduced to my hair stylist, Victor, right away and even though I was not quite sure what I needed, he was so helpful and honest. I had balayage done a few months ago was looking for a touch up. May I just say, Victor exceeded my expectations in every single way. He is so professional and so talented. When I saw the results I was just amazed. I highly recommend this Kolorbar location and I very, very highly recommend Victor! Very clean, organized and laid back, fun environment, as well. Thank you all so much! read more

Sandra saved my hair recently - I had blonde done at an UES salon on my completely virgin hair and it came out very badly, I asked them to redo it but it still wasn't right. Sandra did my highlights and fixed the tone of the rest of my hair without causing further damage and finally I really loved my color. My hairdresser in Brooklyn complimented the color recently and said Sandra had done a wonderful job fixing it and picking a color that really suited me read more

Careful with purchasing Groupon's at this location because they may tell you they will no longer accept it even if it's still valid with your account. I purchased my Groupon on 6/9/22. I called on 8/3/22 to make an appointment with the Groupon I purchased. The woman put me on the books, no problem. A few days later (8/11/22) I get a voicemail from *the same woman* (I remembered her voice) she tried to say the receptionist that put me down was new and made a mistake and that they pulled that Groupon off the site so I cannot use it. Only new client discount (10%) Even though my Groupon wasn't expired. I just called to cancel my appointment to ensure I wouldn't get charged and I hear *the same woman* in the background say "yeah I left her a message" - thankfully the woman that took and confirmed my cancellation also didn't try to rebook me so made my decision even easier. Be cautious read more

Waited 20 minutes to be seen, then asked if we could "skip the highlights" as my stylist was short on time. Extremely unprofessional.

I love the Kolorbar on west 72nd street. I have been going there for 7 year's. My hairstylist is Francesca,I have know her for 25 year's. I have baby fine,thinning hair and her Magic hand's give me body and Shine. The salon is spotless, Eva the manager is warm, and friendly and always asks if everything was okay.She cares about her client's and her Amazing staff. If I need a shampoo and blow dry and Francesca is off or booked I have used Ambra! Delightful,and talented and very friendly. When one has thinning hair you need a Master Hairstylist. I love the Kolobar on west.72nd st. A Diamond in the Upper West Side!!! read more

Really disappointing :( I have long curly hair and the first time I came in they charged me $110, which was fine. The day before my second appt, I called to make sure that would still be the case. The man on the phone confirmed that the range for my long curly hair is $110-120, and he told me that I could also get the first timer 10% discount since I didn't get it last time and he would leave a note of it on my account. Because of this confirmation, I cancelled an appt I had made at a more upscale salon that had quoted me $150. However, when I sat down in the chair, Kolorbar told me it would be $150 as well. I told them what the man told me on the phone, and they acted like they didn't believe me. They asked, "who did you talk to", and said "you already got the discount last time"... which, if that last part were true, NO ONE told me. Not my last stylist and not the man I spoke to on the phone. The communication was really poor. I didn't realize I had to relay names to be believed. The stylist finally agreed on $120 but then proceeded to let my wet hair drip on my shoulders while she was distracted talking to someone else, did not hold my knotty hair while brushing it (I had to ask), almost burned my scalp with the blowdryer, and refused to go over my hair with a flatiron without charging $15 extra, which was not the case last time I was there, or in ANY other salon I've been to. It felt like she was rushing to get it over with. I won't say names because I'm not trying to be mean here, only stating my experience. Very sad and disappointed. The only reason I give two stars instead of one is because the woman who cut my hair the first time was nice. But regardless, no one here seems to know how to cut curly hair. If they had kept my initial rate, I would have considered coming back in the future. It's really a shame. I wondered why this place had so few stars compared to other places but now I understand :( read more

I had a really nice experience with Sandra. I shared a pre-pandemic picture of my hair & she got me back to the color that I feel most myself. Plus a good haircut to make my hair feel healthy again! read more

Natalie at the Kolorbar was able to give me a quick haircut while I was wandering around prior to my work conference here in NYC. I have not had my hair cut in months and my ends were looking BERY scraggly. So when I had some tome on hands and their store had just opened for the day, I thought, "Why not?" I opted for just the shampoo and cut for $30. They do offer blow-outs, but it costs additional (tip: check in on the Yelp app for a deal on the blow out!) My hair dries really quickly and I wasn't going for an overly impressive look, so I was happy to forgo that luxury. What I did get was a wonderfully relaxing and refreshing shampoo and condition experience, followed by a precise and quick trim. Overall, I was pleased with the price point, the service, and most of all the speed. Best of all, the salon was clean and the crew was friendly. And I can say I got an NYC haircut! read more

I just moved to NYC from the West Coast, and I was desperately looking for a professional to fix my highlights and color. Sandra from Kolorbar on 72nd came to the rescue and corrected it! She did such a great job! The entire staff was so kind and polite as well! The overall service was excellent, and I would highly recommend Sandra! The only reason why I left one star off was due to the lack of communicating the total pricing. I made the appointment online, and I based my esitmate on the prices noted on their website. I wasn't expecting to pay as much as I did, so I wish I would've known how much everything would've cost, including the blowout and cut. I was surprised.It was more than double, which was such a wide range from what I expected. I also should have asked. However, I'm still very happy with the results! Sandra is incredible! read more

I have been to every salon in NYC, but I have finally found the BEST!! Sam at Kolorbar, cut, color and keratin. Always with a smile and I promise, you will always look and feel beautiful. The whole salon, just happy and amazing vibes. But Sam, truly the best...Look no more, I am so picky, and I have never been disappointed. Pure Perfection read more

Diana is fantastic and saved my hair after someone else totally ruined them. She is an absolute professional ,very passionate about her work and takes care of her clients 100%! I do highlights with her every few months - and my hair still look amazing even two months later! - she creates very natural and gradual transition between the roots and highlighted hair. The prices are great for the city, and Diana is extremely accommodating in booking appointments . I've been going to Diana for about 3 years now and I'm just so thankful that I finally found such an amazing hairstylist. I highly recommend Diana !  Did I mention,  she is an amazing person and has the heart of gold?! read more

I've been coming to stylist Tanya Diez for a few years now. I've always been very pleased with the results and have even brought in a friend who was looking for a new stylist. When I've suggest some crazy colors or cuts that would be drastic changes for me, she's been straightforward and honest regarding what to expect (in processing, cost and upkeep), I appreciate this honest feedback as I can get a bit too ambitious and creative with my hairstyles. When I'm in a time crunch and can't go another day battling the grey hairs that spring up on my head, she accommodates my schedule and gets me in and feeling youthful again! Thank you Tanya D! read more

I absolutely love this place! It took me many years to find the right person to trust to cut and color my hair! Tanya Diez is the best stylist at Kolorbar and I'm so lucky to have found her! I absolutely trust her with my hair and love every time I get it cut by her. I've been going with her for over 5 years. I always get so many compliments on my hair color and she is the best to chat with while getting my hair done. I love that she always remembers everything about me even if I haven't seen her in a few months! She's amazing and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a fresh cut or color. If your looking for someone for the first time I totally recommend Tanya Diez. read more

I dyed my hair from black to red at Kolorbar (first time dyeing my hair in my LIFE) and had a great experience with Sandra! She walked me through the whole process and had great customer service. I came back a couple days later to get the red deepened, and it was complimentary and Sandra was happy to do it. Their booking system is also extremely easy to use (online). Would definitely recommend Kolorbar for hair color + styling needs. Many convenient locations on the UWS! read more

I usually don't take time to write reviews unless I'm disappointed, but after going to this location and walking out a new woman, I could not keep this to myself. I got my hair colored and cut by Natasha and wow she is AMAZING at her craft! From the beginning, I could tell that she knew what she was doing. She sure knows her colors and her balayage technique is impeccable. Natasha took my boring black box color hair and transformed it to a beautiful chestnut brown balayage! The dimension is beautiful and I get compliments everywhere I go. If you are looking for a master stylist with a great personality, Natasha is your girl! She will be honest about what she can do for you and that's important when it comes to your hair. I travel from NJ to this location just for her and I won't let anyone else touch my hair from now on. read more

I've been going to Emma for years for haircuts, color and weekly blowouts. She is very friendly, professional and an amazing stylist. I've been to many salons and she is definitely the best. Highly recommend!!! read more

I love going to Kolorbar and getting my hair done with Sandra. Sandra is AMAZING! She is an artist! She fixed my crazy colored hair. I showed her pictures of what I wanted to get done, she had amazing suggestions taking under consideration my skin tone and facial structure which I found this to be very refreshing and very professional. I was very happy to see that she was taking all of these factors in order to make me look fabulous! She is the reason why my hair looks stunning! In addition, she has an inviting warmth and smile that makes you feel at home. I highly recommend Sandra. Lastly, I want to say that the staff at Kolorbar are friendly and kind. read more

Coming here is so joyful. I get excited not only to get my hair done, but catch up with the amazing staff. I kid you not, while running errands after my hair appointment someone stopped and asked me where I had my hair done. They HAD to know. Sandra is a hair color magician. You won't be disappointed. read more

Tried this salon at the recommendation of a friend and was frustrated / disappointed by the result. I asked for long layers and ended up with an awkward chop in the front that looks like I'm trying to grow out side bangs after I foolishly cut them myself. I think the poor stylist thought she was giving me something fresh (literally all I wanted was a boring layered haircut for my boring straight long hair) and when I saw what my hair looked like she kept telling me this is a trendier look. She tried to fix it but the front layers / bang like clump was too short to put up in a ponytail already (essential for my job) so I didn't want it any shorter and the damage was done. When I told the receptionist at the front I was unhappy with my cut she at least gave me 50% off. read more

After going to Kolorbar about three years ago, I wasn't ecstatic about the results. I was happy, but not the happiest. With a sudden change of heart, I decided to give it a second chance right before going back to college on a random Tuesday during a break. To let you know early, I am so, so, so happy I did. I have never, ever been happier about a color job (or the kind of attention I got during the process). I was unknowingly scheduled with Rosa when I signed up for an appointment online. Once I arrived, she greeted me and we started talking about the kind of color I wanted. She was so attentive, so responsive, so real about the reality of what I wanted to get done. Honestly, it was as if I was hanging out with a friend rather than a colorist at a salon. It was such a personal, comfortable experience. You'll see in the photos attached (please excuse how weird the one before is, it just shows the color well), my previous color was pretty far from my roots. I told Rosa I wanted a seamless, "melted" balayage, one that allowed for it to grow out naturally without a lot of maintenance. She did that plus some, and that plus some was getting it as light as I wanted. She was absolutely amazing. I really can't put into words how appreciative I am for her work and her time. Sometimes it's hard finding good people who are equally good at doing hair in New York City. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! You'll thank yourself later--go make an appointment with Rosa :) read more

I love going to this salon! My hair always looks amazing afterwards. Sarah is phenomenal. I came to her the first time with a really bad highlight job. My previous hair dresser had made a mess. Sarah got right to work. I finally have gorgeous blond highlights with SO MUCH DIMENSION!!! I get compliments constantly on my hair. Go see Sarah! Their prices are fantastic, especially for NYC. read more

I popped into Kolorbar a few nights ago to get a consult on fixing my color as well as a cut and blow out. I was matched up with Tanya who knew exactly what I wanted and I also had a photo for reference. I went today and absolutely loved the results! She blended out the color like I asked as well as did a beautiful job with the Bayalage. The staff were all very friendly and even upon walking in the hostess said "Are you ready for your transformation?" She was right! Tanya was also very fair with the price as we all know it's not cheap to get your hair done in NYC. I showed the photo to a ton of my friends and family and they all agreed that my hair looks fabulous! I will definitely be going back and recommending this salon. On another note I watched other stylists and they were equally as great with the colors and blowouts. read more

I had the pleasure of working with Tanya at the 72nd street location and all I can say is WOW!!! I have long hair and wanted a balayage ombré and cut. I have trouble expressing exactly what I want and she took the time to listen and figured out exactly what to do to exceed my expectations. After the first coloring session I expressed I wanted to tone it to something a little different and with no hesitation or attitude she agreed and gave me the hair of my dreams!!! I am very sensitive to getting my hair done and cut and she absolutely blew it out of the water. The whole staff was kind and inviting and I couldn't recommend her and this location enough. Thank you all! read more

MEN - BEWARE. I am so disappointed. My husband stopped in for a haircut because he prefers salons to barbers and we pass by this place all of the time. It also has men's hair cut pricing advertised on the door, so you would think everyone there is proficient in men's hair cuts..... Honestly it was the worst haircut I've ever seen him get. There isn't one place on his head that is the same length. She then told him he might have to wear it "messy" - I'm assuming to cover up the unevenness. She didn't even take a look at his hair and how he wears it before it was washed. The worst part about all of it is she cut his neck about 5 times (see picture) he has a huge meeting on Wednesday with the president of his company and his neck is covered in huge scratches and His hair looks AWFUL. He said that she was extremely sweet and the customer service was fine. read more

Kolorbar is an amazing salon! Been here many times and they never fail to disappoint. Easy to work with and so accommodating even for last minute appointments. I highly recommend Sandra, especially for blondes! She is a color goddess! She fixed a horrible highlights job and has been my go to since! Always happy with her service, there is no one like her! Thank you :) read more

I found the salon on Groupon first. I came in for balayage highlights. I'm very picky as I just moved from Paris and usually get my hair done there. I'm SO glad I came because the overall prices of the salon are very reasonable, but more importantly than that is I found my stylist I'll be using for years. Nataline is a professional, her technique is what you would expect from a celebrity stylist that charges thousands, really. She explained what I wanted better than I could, it's like she read my mind. She took extra time and care to ensure my hair was conditioned properly and even did it twice to be sure! I feel like she really cared about my hair healthy. She's in high demand, but if you can request your stylist and you want to trust it's going to be done correctly with friendly service be sure to get Nataline! read more

I was too quick to judge this place and give it a 4 star based on one experience. Please note that walk-in for men's hair cut is $25 and $30 if you make an appointment. With tax, this ends up being $27 and $32 respectively. However, if you do walk-in - they will still charge you $30 unless you point them to a sign on the window outside - what crooks. My last haircut, the stylist used the clippers too close and left a patch (skin) in the back of my head. It was as if she was not paying any attention to what she was doing. She was apologetic and tried to color my skin but that didn't help. I couldn't get a matching patch on the other side. Given that I had a work meeting the next day - this was a complete disaster. On top of that - instead of compensating and giving me discount, she charges me full price for the haircut. read more

First time consultation, no one treated me with kindness (not even the receptionist), nor were they communicative about what I wanted. Terrible experience. I've never been made to feel so out of place. Definitely not a place I'd ever go again. Your hair is important and when you decide to get it cut you want to feel some mutual respect and/or enthusiasm. Maybe today was an off day for this salon but if you're very particular about your hair I don't recommend. read more
