I just moved to NJ from Brooklyn and was looking for a new salon. A friend (with great hair)…read moreimmediately recommended this place and to see Anthony in particular. All I can say is that I am very, very happy I took her suggestion. I have a new hair salon (which is lovely) and Anthony is FANTASTIC. One of those artists who isn't just going to do what the picture you brought in looks like. He's going to talk to you about what version of that style might be best for you. He takes everything into consideration and doesn't make a move on anything with your hair until you are both excited about the plan. Honestly, I never want to go to anybody else. And I should add that everyone I met at that salon, including the owner, was incredibly nice. Like, genuinely nice. Not performing for customers. People who work there seem genuinely happy with their jobs and each other and to me that says soooo much about a place. Also, there were two rescue dogs just hanging out there with their person and being totally chill and social with the clients. That alone could've sold me on the place. Lol. Highly recommend this salon and Anthony!

To spare the essay, I'll focus on the worst most disappointing part of the experience which was the…read moremanner in which the lead stylist Phyllis spoke to me about my hair. After agreeing to squeeze me into my scheduled appointment that she overlooked or wasn't aware of (scheduled for 12pm, sat at 12:25) and letting the shampoo girl start my blow dry, she launched a series of attacks against my hair in its natural state, remarking on its poor condition. When she told me that I needed a trim, I told her that I wouldn't be getting one at this appointment because I was still looking for a new salon. And one thing that I've learned over the years is that not everyone can cut or trim hair and after rereading negative reviews about her scissor happiness, I'm even more glad that I passed. By the end of my time in the chair she claimed that my hair hadn't been trimmed in 2-3 years despite getting regular trims every 3 months and in between protective/natural styles over the past 7 years. When I showed a reference picture of my hair blow dried she insisted that they would need to flat iron my hair to get it that straight and went on to say how I "clearly think I'm a hairdresser." Each comment about the dryness of my hair and deadness of my ends wasn't isolated or even paired with her approach to repair but was simply sandwiched with insult. By the end of the appointment, she ran the blow dryer through my hair in large sections, offered nothing to hydrate my hair despite going on about its dry state (no oils, sprays, lotions, creams, etc.), and did not charge me for the appointment. For everything that she said I asked if she had recommendations for how to go about caring for it (because I'm always open to new tips), and she offered nothing beyond just finding a place that can care for it and a flippant remark that she "doesn't know how I wear my hair." (That's typically a question asked at the beginning of appointments or at least through styling to identify problem areas, concerns with maintenance, etc.) Hair is too personal to have it be used as ammo by the same people self-proclaimed to be hair care professionals. I'm sure it's a great place for some women but I found it to be the absolute worst salon experience I've ever had

Five stars simply are not enough for Angelo David Salon…read more This is an incredibly personal review for me. I am a 56-year-old attorney from Texas, and the last two years have been among the most transformational of my life. My middle son got married, my youngest became a CPA, I lost more than 130 pounds, and I have been traveling regularly to New York City while searching for a second home and preparing to open my second law office here. But during this transformation, I also experienced significant hair loss. As a woman who had always had long, healthy hair, losing my hair was devastating and incredibly humbling. Unless you have experienced it, it is difficult to understand how deeply hair loss can affect your confidence and sense of self. I researched hair extensions and hair loss solutions extensively. Unfortunately, out of desperation, I initially went to someone in Texas who damaged my already fragile hair even more. After that experience, I was terrified to trust anyone again. While staying at The Carlyle, I asked my esthetician at the Valmont Spa who she would trust if she needed the absolute best in New York City. Without hesitation, she recommended Angelo David Salon. I scheduled a virtual consultation and was stunned to discover that my consultation was personally with Angelo David himself. That immediately told me something about this salon. Despite his extraordinary reputation and celebrity clientele, Angelo personally evaluates his clients because he genuinely cares about their hair, their individual needs, and the outcome. He was meticulous, knowledgeable, compassionate, and incredibly reassuring. From the moment I arrived for my installation, I was treated like royalty. Every member of the team was exceptional, from Kumru the colorist and assistant America who carefully removed my previous extensions and cared for my hair, to Guadalupe, who installed my new extensions with incredible precision and patience. They never rushed me. They listened. They understood why I was nervous. They let me see and feel the hair and made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire process. The atmosphere is pure New York luxury! They brought me wine and even a martini during my appointment! I also met clients who had traveled from across the country specifically to have their hair done at Angelo David Salon, along with a few celebrities, which added a little New York magic to the day! But what makes this salon extraordinary isn't the celebrity clientele. It is the expertise, attention to detail, kindness, and genuine care. When I looked in the mirror after my extensions were finished, I didn't just see beautiful hair. I felt like myself again. That is something I will never forget. For any woman experiencing hair loss, thinning hair, damaged extensions, or simply searching for exceptional hair extensions or a top colorist in New York City, I cannot recommend Angelo David Salon highly enough. When something as personal and important as your hair is involved, expertise matters. Trust matters. Who you choose matters. I understand now why women travel from all over the country to come here. Angelo David Salon didn't simply give me beautiful hair. They gave me back confidence during one of the most transformative chapters of my life. Angelo, Guadalupe, Kumru and the entire team, thank you for making me feel beautiful, cared for, and special. You have a client for life. Five stars will never be enough.

I absolutely love this salon and can't recommend LLS highly enough! Kris, who does my color and…read moreowns the salon, is phenomenal. She is an incredible listener and takes the time to understand exactly what I'm looking for, then talks through different options and the tradeoffs involved - especially when it comes to getting color to last versus how frequently I want to come in for maintenance. She is thoughtful, honest, and incredibly attentive, and she always makes it clear that she'll work through any concern I may have with the result if something isn't quite right. That said, I've been coming to her for years and it has never not been to my liking. She just gets it right. Hayley is my stylist, and she is equally fantastic. She cuts the best bangs on the East Coast, is incredibly talented, and is also just a genuinely lovely person. Every haircut leaves me walking out with gorgeous hair. She takes the time to talk through how I actually style my hair at home (which, admittedly, is nowhere near as good as how she styles it!), what will change once I'm doing it myself, and gives me practical tips for recreating the look. I really appreciate that she considers not just how the cut looks when I leave the salon, but how it will work for me afterward. And the environment Kris has created is a huge part of why I keep coming back. It's warm, comfortable, and filled with an incredible combination of talented, thoughtful, and genuinely funny people. The attention to detail is exceptional, and it's abundantly clear that everyone there cares about their clients, their experience, and getting the little things right. Ive lived in JC for almost 7 years now, and salon hopped across at least 4 other salons before I found LLS - believe me when I say just how rare it is to find a salon with this level of talent - just book your appt. now, trust me.

I came in very excited for my appointment and was expecting a full highlight/balayage…read moretransformation. Before booking, I sent photos of my current hair, a previous photo showing my balayage, and inspiration photos from Alysa's own page showing the dimensional, blended color I liked. I also spoke with someone at the salon beforehand and made sure my information was passed along to Alysa. I explained that I wanted to keep my hair on the lighter side since my current balayage was already more blonde. I was looking for warm caramel/honey tones, brighter face-framing pieces, soft ribbon highlights, dimension, and a natural blended finish. During my appointment, Alysa asked what I wanted, and I specifically told her in person that I wanted the color brought closer to the root with a blended transition. Unfortunately, the final result did not match the vision we discussed or the inspiration I provided. The back and crown area remained very dark, and the result felt more like a shadow root and refresh of my previous color rather than the full highlight transformation I was expecting. It appears that the new growth was mainly shadowed and the existing lighter pieces were re-lightened instead of creating the brighter, dimensional look I requested. The color also turned out more brassy than I expected. I felt the toning process was rushed. It seemed like the toner was applied and rinsed out very quickly rather than being left on long enough to properly neutralize the brassiness and achieve the softer tone I was looking for. I was also disappointed with the finishing of my hair. After a color service at this price point, I expected a polished salon finish, but my hair was left puffy, rough, and not styled the way I expected. It felt like there was still product left in my hair, and I had to go home and fix it myself. The blowout fee was an additional $80, which made this even more disappointing. My previous stylist was very detail-oriented and always took her time. Even though she relocated far away, I always left her salon feeling confident, with my hair fully styled, soft, and beautiful. I have never left a salon feeling like the stylist was rushing through the service. I also did not appreciate the way Alysa discussed my hair being "not prepped" while speaking with another stylist in front of me. I was never sent preparation instructions or an email explaining that my hair needed to be prepped in a specific way before my appointment. I have never heard of needing my hair "prepped" in that way, especially since many salons actually recommend coming in with hair that has not been freshly washed before a color service. If there were concerns, I would have appreciated being informed directly and professionally rather than hearing the conversation while it was being discussed with another stylist. I also feel I was overcharged for the service I received. I paid for what I understood to be a full highlight, but the final result appears more like a partial highlight with a shadow root and a refresh of my existing color. The outcome did not reflect the level of service or transformation I expected for the price I paid. The most disappointing part is that after spending this much money, my friends and coworkers did not even notice that I had my hair done because the overall appearance looked so similar to my previous color. I was expecting a noticeable, brighter transformation, and instead I left feeling like the change was minimal and not worth the time, cost, or effort. The service was $560, and I still left a $125 tip because I appreciated the stylist's time and effort. However, I was disappointed because the final result did not match what I requested. I now have to find another salon to correct the color because my crown area is still mostly dark, which is not what I wanted. Overall, this experience felt like a waste of time and money. I paid the same price at other salons and left with hair that was beautiful, soft, fully styled, and exactly what I asked for. Unfortunately, I would not return or recommend this salon. I would advise others to be cautious and think twice before booking, especially if you are looking for a detailed color transformation and a stylist who truly takes the time to understand your vision. A stylist who takes pride in their work should not let a client leave feeling like they received a partially completed service after paying for a premium color service and blowout.
