I have never left a negative review on anything before. Especially a salon. My mom is a cosmetologist and used to own a salon so I know how hard it is to run a business and I know the stylists have good intentions when doing their client's hair. Unfortunately, my situation is so terrible that I feel like I have to warn future clients. I came in yesterday to ask for light brown hair (reference photo attached). I wanted one solid color all over my head, just slightly different from my original hair color. My hair was previously lightened around two years ago and I had colored it back to dark around a year ago so I understand it's a little more tricky to re-bleach my hair and that damage should be expected. However, I was never warned that around 40% of my hair would melt off from the mid down. As a hair stylist, you must inform your client of the LEVEL of damage. I understand that sometimes it's hard to gauge how much damage will be done, but as a professional with many many years in the industry, I'd expect you'd have a better idea or at least communicate the severe risk to your client. When I first sat down, the stylist (Shampa) told me that the double process to reach one solid color would be more tricky and 'a little damaging' to my hair and that balayage would be better, implying that balayage would be LESS damaging. She also stated that the balayage and the double process would be the same price so it was up to me. I went with balayage because hair health is more important than achieving any color and if it's the same price, might as well. However, I later came to find out that the double process would have been over $100 cheaper. So did she lie? I don't know. But what I do know is that my hair was completely melted off, likely due to the over-bleaching done by the stylist. At no point did I indicate that I wanted to go blonde and now I have about 4 shades of color in my hair and severe damage all over. to make matters worse, I was never told that the blow dry wasn't included with the hair color. That's not a huge deal, I can look past that. However, when it came to drying my hair and blow drying it, the stylist said that she couldn't finish because she didn't want to tug at my hair. (Keep in mind, at this point I had no idea how damaged my hair was. I thought it was only tangled because of the balayage method). I left the salon with wet roots and tangled hair. Of course, when it was time to pay I was still charged the full $50 for the blow dry. I left the salon with my entire head smelling so strongly of bleach and in complete confusion as to what just happened. Of course, I tipped highly and left the salon in shock because I was too nice to say anything. (Big mistake on my part). It's my birthday today. I saved up for MONTHS to get this done. I paid $540 to get my hair burnt off and have a color that I didn't ask for. Today I called, and I explained the situation kindly. Celeste, who answered the phone seemed like a nice girl, but to be honest their response was very disheartening. They offered me repair treatments but at this point, I do not have anything to repair. My hair is gone. She kept emphasizing that the stylist had 'warned me' about damage but the truth is the stylist did NOT at ANY point tell me the potential severity of the damage. She said 'a little damaged' - to me, and many people out there this implies minor breakage, dryness, and split ends. This is not equivalent to telling your client that a huge part of their hair could break off. They have a 'NO REFUND' policy which I find to be unprofessional. When you destroy someone's hair, the least you can do is give them a refund or at LEAST a partial refund. They wouldn't even refund me for the $50 blow dry... it's sad. I appreciate them trying to offer me treatment to fix my hair but in all honestly, I don't even know how I could step foot into this salon, or any other salon ever again. I'm traumatized by this experience. Please avoid this salon for any sort of color treatment. No matter how much they damage your hair, their 'no refund' policy is a risk you should not be willing to take, especially if you care about your hair. read more

I got my hair done today by Ozlem and let me just say - I LOVE IT!! She was so friendly, warm, and understanding. She listened super well to my very poor description of what I wanted and turned it into reality! I also had an incredibly sweet stylist wash my hair when Ozlem was with another client. Each woman made the whole experience one of the best I've ever had at a salon. I am so thankful for their kindness, checking in with me, and making my first coloring in years a trip to remember. And again, I LOVE MY HAIR! Will be back to see the wonderful Ozlem. :) read more

first time in today and will definitely be back!! Blaise is incredible, i am loving my new hair :)

I went in a bit nervous knowing I wanted to go short. With 3b curly hair, you don't let ANYONE just cut your hair... Christine knows curls! She did such a great job and cut my hair exactly as I had imagined. I gave her a few reference photos and it was perfectly executed. Christine took the time to sit with me, examined my hair, and made great recommendations helping me feel comfortable and confident about my decision to go short. The one thing I appreciated the most, was that she didn't go scissor happy and really understood what my hair would do when it dried. Thank you Space salon!! Also, very clean and well sanitized! read more

Booking with Mariam was a delight! Will definitely be back for my next cut & color Couldn't recommend more!

Blaise is an amazing stylist! Space Salon is beautiful and the service is always top notch! Blaise is one of a very select few that I trust my curls with, he works magic! I also took my 9 year old daughter here for her first salon haircut and Blaise was amazing with her. She felt so grown up and pampered. I cannot recommend Space Salon and Blaise enough! read more

I have been coming here for years for my hair color, cuts and blow dries. The staff are warm, friendly, professional and talented. I really feel welcomed and relaxed when I receive services here. And I get lots of compliments on my hair all the time. My main stylist is Edna but I've seen all the others here as well. You can't go wrong with any of them! read more

10/10!! I had a wonderful experience. Mariam made booking an appointment so easy and she was so kind.

The answer to all my highlight and color dreams, Adela always delivers the blond shade I want safely and fabulously. I have been going to her for the last 8 years and always walked away happy. She knows how to work with curly hair and how to lift its color without breaking or turning it into dry kindling. I have grown to trust her hands so much that I even let her give me bangs one time. (I grew them out because I can't stand hair in my eyes but got the best compliment of my life while I had them.) The salon itself has a positive vibe and it can feel more like a stress release therapy session. Everyone is warm and helpful. The place has truly left its mark in the neighborhood. Keep up the good work! read more

The service here is always great! Blaise gave me a hair cut and I absolutely love how he styled my hair

Worst customer service. Apparently if you are hurt and going to the ER, or dying, you are still expected to fulfill your appointment. When we called to reschedule, they gave no shit, and mind you this is after years of giving them our business, and said that we cannot reschedule and need a deposit. Better go to other salons in the neighborhood. read more

My warm blonde ends were turning brassy color so I needed to touch it up. I called in early Saturday morning and was able to get an appointment for the afternoon. Normally, I usually stay in the same color range but this time I decided to take it up a knotch. My hair colorist, Ozlem, was extremely helpful in deciding the right shade and dimensions. I had no idea what to expect, but let me tell you..she did not disappoint! Ozlem worked patiently on my hair until its completion (which took about 5 hours.) She explained everything along the way, which made me feel comfortable. At the end, I was shocked to see my hair so blonde! Even more impressed that my hair was not dried out during the process. Pricing is pretty standard balayage pricing, but definitely worth the money considering the attention to detail. The salon offers coffee and water to accommodate you while you are doing your hair. There is meter parking around the salon and more parking available a block away (in the residential area.) Overall, very happy with my hair experience! I highly recommend Ozlem for balayage! read more

Great service! Mariam was super helpful and made it very easy to schedule. Atmosphere was great and I was very pleased with the service.

The layers in my haircut were SO bad and uneven I had to wait a few months before going to another salon to fix it so that they can grow out. My new stylist was horrified at the haircut I was given. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!!!!! read more

Loveeee space salon. My mom is a retired hair dresser so no one has touched my hair besides my mom until I was 30 I was so nervous about finding a stylist once my mom retired and am so thankful I found Edna, she's the best!! read more

It has taken me two years to find a hair salon in the neighborhood that i actually trust and love!! I am so happy i found Space salon, and Shampa absolutely killed it!!! I asked for the "butterfly haircut" and that is exactly what she delivered. Everything about this place was 10/10, the service, cleanliness, hair stylists knowledge, etc. highly recommend, I made an appointment with Shampa and I will definitely be a returning customer. read more

Came in yesterday for a cut, shampoo and blow out. First off, loved the atmosphere. It felt more like a party with all my girlfriends then a salon, secondly I got the best shampoo ever. The woman who shampooed my hair had strong hands and paid attention to that nape of neck area that is usually overlooked. Finally, my stylist Adella knew exactly what I needed just by looking at me. I got one of the best cuts ever and she took extra time on the blue out. I highly recommend this salon. I'll be back. read more

I've been going to Adela for 20 yrs now and will not let anyone else touch my hair. I have long hair and love to change up my color every now and then anywhere from brunette to blonde and in between, and she has always known how to accomplish just what I need. I receive compliments all the time and friends have commented how someone is taking care of my hair. That someone is Adela. For all the changes I put my hair through, she knows how to keep it healthy. They have all the latest treatments and everyone there is very friendly. I have sent many friends there and they have all left very happy with their results. The stylists there are all very talented as I have seen many of their clients walk out with fabulous hair. I just went blonde this weekend via balayage and walked out with a great color and soft, shiny hair. Thank you, Space Salon! Thank you, Adela! Don't ever leave me! read more

Today I got my hair done by Samantha. She works wonders! She really makes you feel comfortable and beautiful. She is understanding of how hair works, what color works well and best, and styles beautifully. I definitely recommend asking for Samantha at Space Salon! read more

I've been coming to this salon for over a year now and it's always a pleasure. Shampa does a wonderful job with my highlights and cuts. Don't hesitate to give this place a try. read more

Ask for Shampa--perfect cut every time and she's fast, too!! Very reliable and you can't go wrong.

My first experience with space salon was absolutely incredible and I will definitely be returning. There are so many awesome things to discuss about space! (1) every single person who worked at space salon was incredibly friendly, professional, and welcoming. This is not the type of judgy salon with weird vibes! Almost every customer in the salon seemed to be a returning customer, and every stylist seemed to go above and beyond to remember the customers and cater toward their needs. (2) the salon itself is so aesthetic. Super clean, and also super contemporary! Each section of the salon served a purpose, and there was even an adorable comfy backyard space to wait while you processed! (3) the stylists took their time and ensured that you were in the know of what was happening in your process. Ozlem was my stylist for a balyage with a cut and blow. She began the day with a consultation, ensuring that she understood my vision, and she even went above and beyond to ask clarifying questions and provide me with resources to make sure I was clear on the process ahead. Ozlem took pride in her work and didn't rush me at all, as has been the case at many other salons. She took the time to make sure everything was done well and correctly, not compromising my vision or my hair's health. I was also beyond impressed by the teamwork at the salon, and was wowed by the seamless collaboration of all stylists (shout out to Sarah as well!) (4) the pricing is super fair and reasonable. For all of the hard work and thoroughness put into the process by stylists, it is really remarkable how fair the pricing is. Especially reasonable compared to other local salons, especially when you consider the final product...none of them compare to space! TLDR: Go to Space. You won't regret it. And if possible, go to Ozlem! She's an incredibly talented artist and kind, upbeat person! read more

Wonderful service.. great salon. I will be back. I got an exceptional cut and color by Katherine (see photos). Staff here are very friendly. The salon is clean and had a really nice atmosphere.. not stuffy like some NYC salons. I will definitely be back! read more

I came here over the weekend for the first time and went for a balayage, cut, and blowdry. Wow!!! I am beyond happy with how my hair came out. I saw Stephanie and she was phenomenal. She was really patient with me as we worked together to figure out the best color option for me was. I am new to balayage and she answered all my questions I had and was really wonderful to chat with. She paid special attention to me the entire time I was there, asked me if I was okay/comfortable throughout the process, and made me feel well taken care of! The salon is super spacious and somewhere I will return to. They are currently adhering to Covid regulations. If you need color done, this is the place to go. Stephanie, thank you so much for an excellent job! I love my hair! read more

Shampa has been doing my hair at Space salon (hair cuts, Keratin treatments, coloring) for years & I honestly would not go anywhere else. She is attentive to what you want, need, and are looking for in a hairstyle, and is good about providing suggestions whenever I haven't been sure about what I wanted in a haircut. She has a great eye for knowing what coloring works best with my face and complexion and her hair cuts frame my face beautifully. She is amazing! I'd recommend her to anyone. read more

I have been going to Edna for years!! I have never had a bad cut, color, or experience with her. She is a wonderful stylist and takes true pride in her work. read more

Amazing place! I got balayage and highlights. Did not expect to end up spending several hours but I do have a lot of very thin hair. I had very long and dark black hair. Ozlem helped me find the right color to compliment my olive skin tone. Everyone loved it. Ozlem did such an amazing job and truly gave me the best individualized service possible. She worked with my hair with extra care. I am so happy with the results. This is definitely the place to go if you're looking for any hair services/ treatments. read more

I have been living in Queens for a year now and had not found a hair stylist that I liked enough to return to....until now. My search is over after visiting Space Salon and working with Sandy! She understood my hair type, asked questions, listened to what I needed, and most importantly she really delivered on the service. I was in and out in less than 2 hours! The highlights had dimension and depth. The cut was spot on. And the environment and aesthetics of the salon were really nice. I'll definitely be returning. Thanks, Sandy and team! read more

I tried this salon based upon some reviews and it did not disappoint, thanks to Ozlem! Ozlem was extremely talented, taking me from a brassy half high light to a cooler whole head highlight! It has been about 2 months since my appointment and I am still getting compliments on my highlights. My friends say that the color is the best that it's been in years! Ozlem and the entire staff at Space Salon are personable, fun, and the environment is so clean. I highly would recommend and I can't wait to go back to my new Astoria salon. read more

I've been going to Ozlem for my balayage for a couple of years now and she is simply the best! She always gets my icy blonde just how I like it, pays so much attention to detail, and is overall just great to be around. Loving your stylist is key to helping a long process go by quicker, and on top of being amazing at what she does, she also cares about her clients. She constantly remembers little details of my life, despite having a bunch of clients, and makes the experience feel less like getting your hair done and more like hanging out with a good friend. Overall always such a great experience, and I am never disappointed with my results. :) read more

I had a wonderful experience with Space salon. If you want to get a balayage, schedule it with Shampa!! She did an amazing job.
