It was good because I was able to walk in and get my hair done on the fly…read more It was bad because I communicated to the hairstylist through the nail tech, that I wanted a wash deep condition, blow dry and trim. She obliged and I waited for my lady to get her nails done. I'll clarify that I didn't mind waiting. My problem lies with how rushed, underwhelming and unprofessional the wash was. There are plenty of afro/Hispanic women with kinky hair, especially in this neighborhood. There's no reason why my hair was should be done with cold/lukewarm/cool water (what dirt is being washed away with that? I had to tell her the water was cold in my very limited Spanish vocabulary and I was still cool/lukewarm. Plumbing issues? Then she only cleansed it twice, I didn't receive a deep condition. She didn't even properly detangle my hair. She burned me a few times with the blow dryer and visibly flinched and she just kept it pushing. It really felt like she was in a rush to get back to getting her nails done, which again I communicated the I did not mind waiting until her nails was dry. The products here seemed very ineffective. Thank goodness it was within my budget and it was convenient but the cost was quality service, professionalism and (God Forbid) the health of my hair. The nail tech tho, her hair looked pretty! Maybe there's a certain texture that the stylist could work with, or maybe it was just me.....

BEFORE GOING HERE YOU ARE GOING TO WANT TO READ THIS REVIEW…read more.. I don't usually leave reviews, but I couldn't continue to not leave a review for Bkrowned Beauty Bar. I'm pretty picky about who gets their hands on my hair and face. It's a big deal to me. But let me tell you, Bkrowned is truly something special. I am so happy for all the positive reviews because it does not disappoint. From the owner to the stylists, every single person there knows their stuff when it comes to hair care. They treat your hair like it's their own, and you can genuinely feel the love and care they put into every strand. I remember feeling so nervous the first time I got a weave and wig done, but when I saw the final result, I was absolutely blown away. As a female walking in, I looked like Jay Z, and walking out, I looked like Beyoncé--it sounds dramatic, but it's the honest truth. I was rocking the Jay Z look because I was tired of trusting other salons. But what really sets Bkrowned apart and keeps me coming back is their dedication to luxury and ensuring your satisfaction with every service. We've all been in those crowded salons where you leave feeling more stressed than when you arrived, only to find your hair looking worse than when you came in. Bkrowned is the complete opposite. They create a calming atmosphere while their expert stylists work their magic, delivering top-quality results that exceed your expectations. Plus, they're accommodating, punctual, and understanding, making every visit a breeze. The dedication to the appointment time is what I really respect. So, if you're tired of feeling overwhelmed at other salons, do yourself a favor and give Bkrowned a chance. Trust me, you won't regret it. It's more than just a salon--it's an unforgettable experience that will keep you coming back for more.

My mother-in-law was visiting us from Puerto Rico, and she's EXTREMELY particular about her hair…read more She generally gets it blown out once to twice a week, and with the humidity in PR (and now in NYC) you better believe it better be a quality blow out or, as in all my past experiences elsewhere, within hours of stepping outside, you'll look like you stuck your finger in an electrical socket. She stumbled across this gem by accident. When she came home with a stellar, movie star blowout, she grabbed my hands, looked intensely into my eyes, and said, "Mija, this is the place you should go to from now on." Ha! To please her, as all dutiful daughter-in-laws try to do, I went. And I am forever grateful that I did, because after coming here now for the past two months, my hair had never looked better! ALL the ladies are extremely talented. They all do my hair a little bit differently (in a good way) though I'm sure if I specified exactly what I want (which I never really do) they'd do it perfectly. I've also had a one of the best haircuts here that works wonderfully for when I wear my hair curly or straight. AND I've had my color/roots done here, twice, and the results have been dynamite. These ladies are also incredibly kind, professional, fast, and their prices are fair and reasonable. I cannot recommend this salon highly enough. Will never go elsewhere as long as I'm living in the area.

The women doing the pedicures were not as skilled or gentle as Chelsea, causing me immense pain and discomfort during the process. This not only ruined my experience at the salon, but also caused my toes to ache for days and my big toe continued to have pain for weeks.

I came to the salon to have my nails done for my wedding.
