I have been a client of Zokkoz hair salon -To which is an Aveda Hair Salon-for as many years as they have been open. However, due to health issues in the past two years and the pandemic, I was not keeping up with my hair and beauty regimen. This last time I went nine months without a style cut or color. Jillian, who is a Master Hair Architect did her magic once again! She made me look like a different person! Next time will be going a little more red. This Salon is Clean and offers so much! The salon is an Aveda Salon, and they sell the products. I love Aveda hair products because they are organic and do not damage your hair. Jillian and the entire staff are experts on Color precision haircuts and can help clients with all hair types, curly, etc. Give this place a shot! I forgot they also work with vibrant colors, any color you can imagine! Please make your appointment now. They are booked out weeks in advance. You can also schedule a beauty consultation (the consultation is free). Thank you Zokkoz, Jillian and the entire staff for giving me my Grove back! read more

I had a cut & color glaze with Jenna. She listened really well and transformed me from a tired hag to a far better-looking hag with a spring in her step. Neve gave me a good wash & a refreshing beverage. A solid team! I have also had services with Mayra and Delores and have always been very happy with this establishment. read more

I am always greeted with a warm and friendly atmosphere. The salon itself is clean and nicely designed. Jess always takes time to listen to my ideas and offers her professional opinion. Aside from Jess' exceptional work, the staff is friendly and accommodating, I highly recommend ZokKoz to anyone looking for a great experience. read more

Great neighborhood salon! Gillian and her staff are professional and efficient - plus great cuts and free bang trims!!!!

I *LOVE* this place. Plain and simple. I moved to Briarcliff (after living in DC forever) last summer and needed to find a new hairdresser. I'd been with my old hairdresser (who, in my estimation, walks on water, so anyone new would have to clear a pretty high bar) for 20 years and was nervous about going to someone new. I chose Zokkoz, initially, because it was an Aveda salon and I figured that would be a good start. I got an appointment with Jillian, the salon's owner, to touch up my color, which had been custom-blended for me by the aforementioned god-like colorist/hairdresser in DC. Though it was a color unique to me, Jillian was able to match it *perfectly*. PERFECTLY! I was thrilled. Add [to the great color] a sassy short cut and I was delighted. After that first visit, I was sold. I see Jillian for a cut and/or color about once a month -- most recently, she took my vibrant red to a bold black with rich purple highlights ... and it is AWESOME (I seriously get stopped on the street about 20 times a day by people who tell me how great it looks). Beyond Jillian's expertise, the shop is beautifully decorated and comfortable in hues of vibrant orange set against white. The rest of the staff is friendly and welcoming -- I just love it. I can't recommend Jillian more highly; I feel extremely lucky to have found her and Zokkoz. read more

Prior to the pandemic I was getting my hair cut near my office in Manhattan, but now working mostly from home I started going to Jillian, who also cuts my wife's hair... Jillian's cuts are far better than any I've gotten in the city... she and the entire staff are extremely professional and kind and the atmosphere extremely relaxing, even when busy.... I always leave happy. read more

I tried this salon because it was convenient. At first it was ok, nothing special. Then the owner, Jillian, who claimed she was the best at the salon colored, low lighted and cut my hair. What she failed to do is look at the previous formula for my hiar color. It was so dark i thought i looked like Morticia Adams. The cut was subpar and as my new/old hair cutter showed me, it was an inexperienced chop job in the back. She is in experienced and arrogant. The prices she charged for that salon were ridiculous and every item she sells in the store is marked up 4x what you can get on the internet. Stay away ladies!! You can do better. Went back to the Beaurty Parlor in Dobbs Ferry. Hair beautiful...will have to correct the color though does that look like she knows what she is doing? read more

Zokkoz Salon - WHere did she learn to cut hair. Good thing it was in the back so I didn't have to see it every day. - Hair Salons Near Me - Briarcliff Manor, New York

I moved from the city and used to get my curly hair cut at Devachan. When I asked friends and acquaintances for local recommendations, I heard a lot about another spot in Ossining but went for Zokkoz when I asked a client with an amazing head of hair where she got it done, and she said "zok zok in Briarcliff". Long story short, I went once in December and once last week and have been very happy with both cuts. It's a standard Aveda style and the price is incredibly reasonable. $75 for essentially the same cut I used to get for $125 to $q175 before tip in lower Manhattan, about 20 minutes from Peekskill. read more

I have been going to Zokkoz for many years. Everyone, especially the owner, is professional, courteous and excellent at what they do. They appreciate their customers and want them to be happy. read more

Hair trial for updo for a wedding. Wasn't coming out well. The stylist thought a messy look was appropriate for a formal wedding. So she took out the pins and since it was clear to me that she couldn't handle my very curly hair we decided to just do refined curls with hot iron worn loose. But she didn't finish the look and I was charged full price leaving the salon with half done hair read more

Joey buttafuco awesome!!best hair cut in 50 years well worth!best hairdresser ever!!book em now!!

I have naturally curly hair and Jillian knows exactly how to cut it. Short, simple to handle. The best hair cut I have ever had.

I found this salon and consider myself the luckiest girl! I go for me -- taking care of my hair makes me feel great. More importantly the staff makes you feel like you are #1!! I love the products too! I know I'll at my best for my son's wedding!! read more

Mayra is amazing, she always makes me look and feel great! I highly recommend her and this salon.

Beautiful salon, best blow-out have received in a while- lasted for days. Highly recommend!

Jillian did a beautiful blowout on my human hair wig. She trimmed the bangs a bit too.

Jillian is a MASTER and her staff is reliable, friendly and knowledgeable. I feel like family when I am "transformed" there. Truly the best salon I have ever been in. Don't believe me? Make your next hair appointment there; see for yourself read more

Delores was nice but my eyelash lift and tint was barely noticeable. I didn't see any lift.

PLEASE AVOID THIS SALON! I just did my hair Saturday, full head of highlights, and was left on the chair for 4 hours with bleach which caused massive hair damage and hair loss! But that is not the worse part! the treatment I received after that was horrible! they refused to remedy the situation! I asked them to cut the strand of my hair that were knotted because it was breaking every time I tried to comb it, and they refused. I'm in the process of contacting a lawyer to try and fix my hair so that they can refund me for the damages they caused. I have to get like 5 inches of my hair chopped off because my hair looks so bad. read more

I visited the salon for the first time yesterday after purchasing the Groupon for a scalp facial with haircut and blow dry. I worked with Una and she was fantastic. I loved my whole experience. They had a parking lot. The place was super clean and comfortable. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted with a smile and they made me a nice coffee. The scalp massage was great and they threw in a deep conditioning. Una was great at consulting with me and understanding my needs. She was quick and efficient and I was thrilled with the end results. She ended with a nice back massage and some aromatherapy. I also got some free samples and lots of complements after I left. I highly recommend! read more

OK, so I'm already a fan and Jillian didn't even touch my hair yet!!!!! I stopped by today because my "Internet e-salon" color that served me well through COVID changed formulas on me. Instead of a medium blonde I usually enjoy, last night I became an "I Love Lucy" redhead! Jillian took time out of her day to listen patiently to me about all my hair issues. Wow, was I impressed with her knowledge! She really knows her stuff about hair coloring; she is one smart cookie! Tomorrow under her brilliant know-how I become a blonde again-so I can have "more fun" on Halloween! LOL I'll let you know how it turns out......... read more

First I'm writing this review not for negative outcomes but hopefully for the salon to improve on customer service and learn from mistakes. Unfortunately within the last week I had 2 hair dye negative experiences. One for the first hair color appointment and the second to correct the mistake of the first color. None were the color I wanted. Both times I inquired if the formula was being used I was told yes. It was a disappointing experience. I paid for the services and work . The second time I was only charged for the blow drying. I expressed I shouldn't have had to pay for anything since again my hair was not the color I wanted. I was respectful and professional but felt the demeanor of the workers were indifferent because I expressed as a customer I didn't get what I paid for. One hairstylist who was not the one that did my hair stated if I showed the picture and I stated yes every time as I didn't want to end up with a different color in my hair. I explained I hoped they understood . It was surprising as the hairstylist did a good job the first time I went. I was a new customer (due to the salon I went to for years was sold and I was on a journey to find a good hairstylist and salon ) and I was very satisfied with her work. The hair color matched the picture I presented to her. I inquired if she would save the formula she stated she would . Everyone makes mistakes but to make the customer feel as it's their fault and then expect them to pay for messing up your hair is just unacceptable customer service. I'm a firm believer in integrity , learning from mistakes to be and do better and great customer service. read more

Zokkoz Salon did an excellent job for my wedding! I was thrilled with everything: services, stylists, customer service, pricing... you name it! My 5 bridesmaids, mother, mother-in-law, and I all got our hair and makeup done the morning of the wedding and we could not have been happier with how professionally it all was done. Everyone left the salon beautiful, happy and ready for the day. Thank you to Zokkoz owner Jillian, and the stylists that worked with us: Kat, Amanda & Angela. I emailed Jillian back and forth frequently, all of my last-minute changes and adjustments were no problem at all - Jillian took care of it! Zokkoz made my wedding morning absolutely effortless! read more

Went to this salon on a whim. Got a groupon and you never know what you are going to get when you do that. I was thrilled to have Amanda color, cut and blowout my hair. Amazing job and great easy going personality, salon is super relaxing! Time went by so fast, which is a blessing when you usually spend hours getting all 3 services. Definitely would go back! You should go too!! read more

This review is overdue. I went to Zokkoz back in early December and Dolores did my haircut and coloring. I absolutely love that she and the staff at the salon took such care and thought in consulting with me. They made sure that they reviewed all my expectations and made sure I knew what could/couldn't be done in this one appointment. Dolores put extra time into making sure the results were exactly what I wanted/liked. I will be back! read more

I see my bad color experience at Zokkoz was similar to other reviewers. After months of satisfying visits, my color came out much to dark the last and final time I went. Several staff members including the owner and the receptionist (really?) came down on me insisting it was the same color I always had. Someone obviously made a mistake, but rather than apologize they went on the offensive. It's reassuring to read another review where the customer had the exact same experience. A very unprofessional group. read more

My hair was too long and yucky/tangly from the summer and not getting it cut for awhile. Lynne gave me a great haircut and was really fun to talk to. I look forward to also getting my color done here soon! read more

Please note I do not typically post negative reviews. However, similar to at least 2 other reviewers' experiences, I too had an issue where the direction I provided on my color was not followed and after 3 hours, got poor results for the 2nd time in a 4 week span. I was kind enough to give the stylist another shot to fix it before I went elsewhere. Once I saw the results after the assistant finished the blowout, I immediately got upset and expressed it wasn't right again. The stylist (to her credit) did acknowledge it was not what I had asked for and called the owner, Jillian over. Let's just say all she did was make matters WAY worse. I was already upset having both given the stylist and the salon another try as well as having wasted 3 hours of my time and still not being happy with the outcome. Again, similar to not one but TWO other reviewers, instead of expressing understanding and any type of customer service, she placed the blame on me of somehow getting what I asked for (which even the stylist knew was incorrect). I told her, admittedly quite angrily, that I was not going to pay and she told me I needed to pay for the services provided. I walked out at that point but then felt guilty as I realized I got a decent blow dry from the assistant and it wasn't at all her fault. So I swallowed my pride, went back in saying I wanted to pay for the blowdry portion and again the owner without skipping a beat said I needed to pay for everything which I wound up doing. Jillian is clearly non-customer service oriented and money-hungry. Needless to say, I will not be returning. And for the record, I was going to submit this review about 3 weeks ago when the event occurred. My thought was to wait a bit, calm down, and see how it looked/how I felt before doing so. After coming home yesterday from a new/wonderful salon experience where the colorist told me I actually needed color correction and the terrible reddish base color is going to take a while to go away entirely, I felt compelled to report my experience. There are many other salon options in the northern Westchester area- do yourself a favor and go to one of those instead. read more

Wanted to get a balayage treatment after not coloring my hair in years. On a recommendation (and whim), I booked an appointment with Amanda, who did exactly what I asked for. Exactly! I will definitely be returning and so glad I heard about this place. Plus, the whole visit was the most relaxed I've felt in a long time! read more

I tried out the salon not knowing too much just great fb reviews and a recommendation from a neighbor. I asked for a long bob but not too short in the back and provided multiple pictures of the style. I explained to Ana that I have a busy schedule and can't blow it out everyday. Not only was this the WORST cut of my life but at the end Ana said well now you have a cut that you have to blow out everyday. I would post the picture of my hair but too embarrassed as it is extremly choppy and crooked. Needless to say I will never go back and had to pay another salon to have my hair corrected . read more

I have been coming here for a few years now and have never been disappointed with the service or the results. Everyone is so friendly and the haircuts are great. I highly recommend Zokkoz. read more

I walked in on a whim, on a Friday no less, never thinking they'd be able to take me. Una was incredible--professional, gentle and very skilled. The place has a bright, easy vibe and a good location, right off of the parkway. Aveda products too--good stuff! read more

Jillian is absolutely fantastic. She fixed my color and also gives me a fabulous, stylish short cut for my curly hair. She is professional, skilled, and highly personable. Best place I've been in Westchester, and I've tried several! Make sure you notice that the negative reviews here are of the previous owner. read more

For the last few years, Jillian has been my go-to hair stylist whether it's for just a trim, a blow out for an event or a hair relaxing treatment. When I got engaged and knew I had to pick a hair stylist for my wedding, I didn't think twice about hiring Jillian. For about 8 months, Jillian worked with me to come up with the best hair styles for my big day. To say I was indecisive is an understatement. She's not only incredibly talented with everything hair, but she's also creative, easy to work with, and now someone I consider a friend. We settled on not one hair style but three! Jillian could've told me I was crazy for wanting my hair down, then up, then up again in a different way, but she handled it with such grace. On my wedding day itself, Jillian was her true self and everything you want on the big day: friendly, organized, punctual, helpful and efficient! I had two hair changes during the wedding itself (pre- ceremony and pre-reception) and she handled them better than I imagined. I received compliments on my hair all day long! Whether you're looking for a simple haircut, a fancy updo, or a wedding day stylist, Jillian is the best of the best and I would recommend her to anyone! read more

So I know nothing about this new owner, but I went there several years back and haven't returned since. Not only did the owner at the time scold me about not coming often enough (I was going for a ridiculously expensive Keratin treatment and I couldn't afford to go more than twice a year), she also gave me a trim THAT I NEVER ASKED FOR AND THEN CHARGED ME $50 for it. Absolutely disgusting. Hopefully she is long gone. And I had been a loyal customer for about 2 years. If I could give this place zero stars, I would. read more

I had a great experience at Zokkoz Salon, I have gone back twice. Anna was very soothing while washing my hair and Jill, the stylist took the time to listen to everything I said and cut my hair exactly as I wanted. Can't say enough good things. read more
