    Dimensional light brown with balayage
    Caitlin K.

    So happy with my hair cut and colored by owner Lana! She listened to exactly what I wanted and I felt like a model with the pics and videos afterwards! The staff was so kind and asked if I wanted coffee, tea, or even wine I believe haha. They also said it was no problem if I wanted to order dinner.

    Hair started to break a month in. Eventually the top few rows of hair from on side to the other broke.

    Horrific experience. I went to Taylor to lighten my black-colored hair, and instead of approaching the process safely over multiple sessions, he attempted to do it all at once. My hair looked acceptable the day of the appointment, but within weeks it began severely breaking off. I ended up losing the top two rows of my hair, which are now only about an inch long. I had naturally long, thick, healthy hair before this, and the damage has been devastating both emotionally and financially. I've since had to spend a significant amount on treatments just trying to repair what can be repaired. What shocks me most is that I've colored and lightened my hair for years and, in 39 years, I have never experienced damage remotely close to this. This level of breakage comes from negligence, poor judgment, and a complete disregard for hair integrity. The Salon presenting itself as a highly rated professional establishment is honestly unbelievable given the outcome I experienced. I would strongly caution anyone considering major color work here to think very carefully before trusting them with your hair.

    Came here for a balayage, cut, blow-dry and k18 treatment and so happy I did! I'm getting married next weekend and wanted to do something fun with my hair (only second time I've ever had my hair dyed in over 10 years). Elsa did an amazing job

    I had my I-tips done from Michelle and left looking and feeling like a completely different person. Seamless blending with different shades and looks and feels so natural. I had my last batch in for about three months so feels great to have them fresh again

    Highly recommended Shear Bliss and Oksana! I have been frequenting Shear Bliss for years and entire staff is very professional and accommodating. Their work is top quality. Big thank you to Oksana and staff!

    Hair day is the best day at Shear Bliss!

    Another Amazing Experience at Shear Bliss! As a returning client, I can confidently say that Shear Bliss continues to impress me every single time. The consistency in the level of service, quality of care, and overall experience is truly unmatched. From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed with the same warmth and attention that made me fall in love with this salon during my first visit. It felt like coming home, with the staff remembering not just my name but seeing their faces light up when they saw me walk in...It's these little personal touches that make all the difference. I was excited for a refresh! I knew today I would spend hours at the salon....that's also how I knew it was going to be a jaw dropping experience. Adela was as attentive as ever, taking the time to listen to my ideas and offering her expert insight on how to enhance my cut and color. I love that she is always up to date on the latest trends and my response to her is, "yes! Sounds great! Whatever you recommend!" My head is in your hands." I trust her because every time I have left, I have never been nothing more than thrilled with my results. Adela has single handedly not only transformed my hair which began almost 5 years ago. She knows my hair at this point and her precision to detail is incredible every single time. Just like that, the result was nothing short of perfect. The precision of the cut, the depth of color, and the way it was styled left me feeling like a brand new person. I've never left a salon feeling so confident, and Shear Bliss always ensures that I walk out not just looking great but feeling amazing, too. It's rare to find a place that makes you feel like you're in the hands of a true professional who understands your style and needs, but Shear Bliss does that time and time again. If you're looking for consistent, high-quality service from a talented team, I highly recommend this salon. I can't wait for my next visit! Shout out to Farrah, Adela's sweet assistant! She is just a gentle and sweet soul! She gives the best head massages over the shampoo bowl and she is courteous and gentle with making sure the rinse is done carefully without getting your back wet and water in your ears. Such a great girl! The sweetest!

    frizzy and brassy before hair
    Erica C.

    From brassy to blond! I found this solon on yelp and live in the neighborhood so based on all the great reviews, thought i'd give it a try. I decided last minute to get my hair done before xmas and they were able to fit me in despite the busy time of year. David was my colorist and stylist. He started with a dry cut to get rid of the dead ends and ass some volume to my thin hair. He then spent tieless hours creating the perfect blond biolage. My hair has a tendency to go brassy orange but David was able to bring it to a perfect cool blond. His father is also a colorist so capturing the perfect color is in his genes! I also saw numerous fabulous blowouts, everyone walking out with smooth and bouncy hair. As a heads up, they give a discount if you pay in cash

    Hair results

    I had an amazing appointment with Laura. She completely transformed my hair and explained step by step the process and made sure that I was comfortable with the color and tone. She was incredibly patient with my questions and gave me great advice for keeping the color longer. On top of this, the salon space itself is incredibly comfortable and Jalena (my hair assistant) was the sweetest and kept me company with conversation. I couldn't recommend Shear Bliss enough, and I look forward to coming back in a few months for my touch up with Laura!

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.

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.

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.

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.
