    Do not go to Liza. I was nervous walking in because I've had horrible experiences at salons in nyc but I thought I'd give this salon a shot for a single process dye. How hard could it be? You can't mess up a simple 1B -off black/brown color. I told Liza that I was getting married and needed my hair to match extensions I was getting done at another salon. She then proceeded to ask me if she could work at the other salon to do color.. weird comment to say? Then said that the owner charges cheap prices. Another weird comment by an employee? I explicitly told her I did NOT want BLACK hair. I wanted it to match my roots off black. Again telling her it NEEDS to match my extensions. I don't know if she was hard of hearing or she was just trying to give me what I didn't want. I would say "off black" and she would say "BLACK." It was as if she didn't understand me but there was no language barrier. She then doesn't ask me if I want permanent or semi permanent and just starts putting the permanent hair dye aggressively. I DID NOT WANT PERMANENT. I asked her AGAIN what color she was applying and she said 2B. I said NO 1B after half my head was filled with dye. She then asks me why I don't go lighter?! And if my fiancé likes blondes?! Her behavior was incredibly strange with no self awareness and just inappropriate! She then adds what I think is 1 - JET BLACK hair product to my hair and leaves it on for 40 minutes to get exactly the color I specifically said I did NOT want -- jet black. To top it off she doesn't blow dry my hair and changes the topic when I say this is BLACK not off black. Not to mention her colleague told me one price on the phone then she said another price $50 more. I'd rather pay more money and get the job done properly than go back here. The owner however, seemed very nice -- he should get rid of Liza since she's scooping out other salons anyway. Do yourself a favor, she's bad for your business. Whatever you do don't go to Liza unless you want to feel like you're talking to a wall. No acknowledge or apology for messing up my hair and now having permanent jet black hair that won't match my extensions, THANKS LIZA.

    Keratin treatment ... highlights previously done with Liza.

    Love MK Salon. You must go see Liza... she's great with color/highlights. Everyone at the salon is super nice too! Easy to book appointment and they are super flexible to work with your schedule.

    Before

    I found MK on yelp and the photos looked great. I thought the layers they did were gorg and i called to get a trim. I decided i would try them out for a keratin treatment. They did an amazing job. Not only were they all so sweet and make the environment relaxing they did an amazing job on my keratin and cut. Keep in mind - i have VERY difficult hair. The treatment made it effortless! Love Liza and the owner was such a sweet heart!

    I had my hair done by Masaki and was extremely disappointed with both the result and the way my…read moreconcerns were handled afterward. I paid $480 for my appointment and left with hair that looked patchy and not like what we had discussed. While disappointing results can sometimes happen, what bothered me most was the complete lack of communication afterward. I reached out to Masaki on May 13 regarding my concerns and attempted to resolve the issue privately. I never received a response. It has now been about a month, and despite giving plenty of time for a reply, I have been ignored. I did not immediately leave reviews or make public comments because I wanted to give him the opportunity to address the situation directly. Unfortunately, that opportunity was never taken. For $480, I expected a higher standard of work and customer service. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend Masaki.

    Updating my review: I used to come here because the haircuts were strong, but over time the…read moreexperience deteriorated significantly. 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.

This was their "best advice for me" and that I should come back and get both together. I only needed a haircut and this was the only chance I got (I am a SAHM with 2 kids and minimal backup except this day) so I said I would consider it but I need a cut now. It was 6 months since my last. That must have just not been the right thing to say bc I was judged, insulted during the entire session and I got the worst haircut of my life. I can't even get it fixed because it is so much shorter than I wanted. There are huge "texture" discrepancies all over my hair, the most obvious being in the back near my neck. There's also a strand of hair far longer than the entire length of my bob cut. I don't even understand how this happened. I'm so traumatized. I would never recommend this place and will never ever come back. I really had 1 chance to get a cut as a treat to myself, since I really don't have extra time to spare. And now I have to live with this until it grows out, definitely more than 6 more months. If I could give -1000 stars, I would. Please do yourself a favor and find a salon that can do a nice cut for long AND SHORT hair. WITHOUT A PERM TO MAKE IT ALL STRAIGHT FIRST. The skill level here is just so sub par. I could have done it myself.

I haven't cut my hair in 6 months and I have really long straight natural hair so you can say it is a blank canvas. This is probably one of the worst haircut I have gotten in years compared to other places that are in different price ranges. Leaving the salon it looked good styled but when I went home to wash it and had more time to look without it curled I saw really choppy layers and the length is much shorter than i wanted. For a cut I paid $107-110 not including tips and expected a decent cut for that amount. Truly disappointing as holidays are coming up and I have been wearing a hat to cover up, cannot wait for this to grow out but will take months. Ara was really sweet and nice but I don't think the skills were there.

And what a fortunate thing I was, because I have now found my new go to person for all hair related needs. I highly recommend Ai for your stylist. Her attention to detail is superb and it is apparent she is a perfectionist as she even requested to trim my eyebrows to balance the cut against face shape. 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. However, what ultimately made me leave a review was what Ai did NOT do. It was the fact that she advised me NOT to get a perm that day. She recommended it would be better to grow out my hair longer for the intended style. What refreshing honesty that prioritizes the best for your client instead of upselling any unnecessary service.

The couples package came with * 1 hour massage * 30 minutes private soaks with milk & honey scrub * 30 minutes in couples suite which includes jacuzzi tub & sauna Since it was my boyfriends birthday I requested rose petals like I had seen in the Yelp picture. I was a bit disappointed to see that it looked nothing like the picture and it was fake rose petals which I thought was weird. I'll give them an A for effort though although it looked nothing like the picture. The massage was amazing. She did a really great job. Most of my massages are pretty rough but she did a great job with light to medium pressure. I really liked the glass of champagne and the chocolate truffles. The private soak was nice but I really enjoyed the sauna. It was definitely a great experience. Came out feeling revitalized. My boyfriend really enjoyed the massage and the amenities.
