I found my place! So cute and friendly. They do a good job with haircuts and customer service!

Was traveling in the Hudson Valley for work, was in desperate need of a cut and color, and found this spot on Yelp! First of all--the salon is an absolutely adorable space in the equally adorable Pawling. It's very clear the owner of the salon takes pride in her business. I had made my appointment with Giana on their online booking system (which I've since learned is new). The confirmations I'd received were for 15 minutes prior to what I had thought was my designated appointment time. I wasn't sure if this was because they wanted me to get there early or if I'd mistaken the time, so to be safe, I got there 10 minutes before the time reflected on the confirmations. The salon was closed with no one around. No biggie as I was early. I waited until 15 minutes after the time I had thought I'd made my appointment for (so 30 minutes later than the time my confirmations had reflected) and reached out via Instagram (mainly because I had booked online which requests your cc# and mentions a fee for no-shows and I wanted to be sure they knew I'd been there). The owner was super apologetic. Apparently, there was a snafu with their new online booking system. I'm sure they'll get the kinks worked out with that but for now might be worth a quick phone call to confirm your appointment is showing up on their schedule. That said, my appointed stylist lives 5 minutes aways so she was able to run down quickly. So, about 50 minutes after my arrival, I was finally in the salon! Giana took a look at the pics I brought for what I was hoping from my cut/color. She was very thoughtful and brought out their color book to ensure the right color combo. She also asked a lot of questions in order to ensure she cut it the right length etc. She did careful work on the cut and color--the only small complaint I had was that she didn't really condition it (she may have done a light spritz of leave in conditioner? Not sure) but ultimately 10 minutes after I left the salon my hair got incredibly staticky from being so dry. I've never had this happen before but it made for a comical afternoon of my hair standing on end in the airport. Ha! That said, as soon as I got back home to Wisconsin, I washed and thoroughly conditioned my hair and am very happy with the cut and color. She did a great job matching the color photo and cut photo I had provided! All in all, obviously a bit of a mixed bag but I feel like it was just an off day and like I said--the end results now that I'm home are great. read more

Let's start off by saying, is this even real life? This is a super cute, quaint, hair salon, right in the heart of PAWLING! I'm so happy to now something like this exists in the village where you can safely get your hair done without worrying about too many people being inside the salon at the same time. Now let's talk about AZARIA: the hair painting artist. This girl right here is the best thing that has happened to Pawling and to my hair since I moved to New York. This color queen knows her work, she knows exactly what your hair needs and she will make you look like a brand new human when you leave. Her spunky personality reflects on her clientele's work. She's fresh, innovative and up to date with her techniques. You might spend a little extra time in here but it's totally worth it if you want to come out looking the way you want. Don't expect something basic and don't come here for basic. You are going straight to a hair artist. Give her some inspirational images and let her do her thing. I can say I 100% trust my hair to Azaria. She's phenomenal, she's amazing, best part of all, you don't have to have awkward salon-chair talk. Easy to talk to, outgoing and sparkly personality. Love this girl and her amazing work! Went in for a foliage with root smudge and haircut. So happy with my outcome! Also she wears a mask the whole time and no other clients are in there while you're there. Really nice to have just a one on one appointment without having to worry about the rest. Thanks again Azaria. Book with her. Your hair will thank you later! read more
