I’m so happy with my hair! I went to Melina to fix my hair color, and she did an amazing job. She was very professional, kind, and attentive to every detail. She is truly wonderful at what she does, and I absolutely love how my hair turned out! Highly recommend her, she’s amazing!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Caroline did an excellent job correcting my color and blending my natural hair with rooted extensions. The result is completely seamless. Before: My hair was too light, the roots didn't blend at all, and the cut was overly textured. I was self-conscious and had to comb my fine hair just right to hide the…
Highly recommend this spot for all hair types and styles! Elsa was amazing and fixed my hair bleaching nightmare and got me confident in myself again! Everyone should definitely get their next hair appointment here!
I am had the most amazing and life changing experience after my very first visit with my favorite stylist Daisy. I had extremely white naturally gray roots that I grew out for about 3 months and the length was a mix of brown black permanent dye with later henna and indigo on top, because I had an allergy reaction to…
Had an incredible first time experience at this salon. Came in for color and a cut. I was very impressed with the skill and service that my stylist, Melina, provided. She was very knowledgeable and really went above and beyond to ensure I had a great experience. Super professional and talented. I would highly…
Elsa and her assistant Ola were amazing! I had horrible highlights coming in and she elevated my look to an elevated black cherry red color. I loved the results!
I got my hair colored and blown out by Maria and she was amazing!!!! She gave me the perfect cherry cola color and a gorgeous blowout!
Laura did an exceptional job with my hair. I showed her an inspo pic of the color I wanted and she made it happen exactly how I wanted. I am so happy with the experience! Will be going back for sure.
Amazing salon! Very well organized and professional, upbeat staff with top notch client treatment and even hospitality! Always five star outcomes, whether it comes to hair cuts, color, highlights, or Brazilian blowouts . They are on trend and use top notch product. Shoutout to Stella, she is amazing !
I came with my hair super damaged from the sun and I haven’t done my highlights in 7 months. Elsa literally brought my hair back to life. She did an amazing job. Elsa was very careful and patient since my process takes so many hours. Excellent results! All the staff were very attentive. Tina also was very kind and…
I absolutely love my hair! The color turned out beautiful, and the cut is exactly what I wanted. Thank you so much for the amazing work Elsa! 🤍✨
I have visited multiple hair salons along the years and this one has been one of my favorites for color & balayages. Talented staff. It gets busy so I recommend you to make an appointment in advance.
Caroline did my color correction from black box dye to this beautiful brown with NO bleach. My hair feels so healthy, and the color is exactly what I wanted. Also did a great blow dry on my thick curly hair. All the staff were extremely kind, would definitely recommend!
Melina helped fixed my highlights that were done at another salon. They were very striped and the color was off. After my hair looks amazing - I love the color and balance while still maintaining the dimension.
Daisy did my hair beautifully again, just like she always does! She never misses and I’m always so happy with how my hair turns out. She’s truly the best!!
Such a gorgeous salon and an amazing team. Lace and Lana are true artists, and you can feel the level of professionalism throughout Shear Bliss.
Elsa is phenomenal. Her technique and attention to detail are incredible. I walked out with beautiful, dimensional hair that looks so natural and luxurious.
David is incredibly talented. Professional, knowledgeable, and so precise with his work. My hair has never looked this polished.
Stella gave me the most beautiful transformation. She has an amazing eye for detail and made sure everything was perfect before I left.
Daisy is amazing! She has such a warm personality and made me feel comfortable from the moment I sat in her chair. I left feeling so confident and beautiful.
I got my hair done with oksana and I highly recommend her. She has hands of gold no joke I was very worried to let anyone touch. She understood my version of what I wanted and did a fantastic job.
Taylor Did a great job at fixing my hair after a at home attempt of dying it!
First, my stylist, Oksana is AMAZING! I’ve never had such a perfect color since I’ve been coloring my hair and that’s been a long time, I’m 76 so when I say it’s been a long time, it Has! Her Hairstyling is amazing, there’s never been anyone who has styled my wavy hair as perfectly as she does! She is the best…
Elsa was AMAZING and meticulous with my semi-complicated dye request. It turned out PERFECT, 10/10!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I had a very challenging hair color situation. Some of my hair was gray, some was red and I had several different shades throughout my hair. Then I found Lana, and she is truly a magician! She mixed several different colors, used toners, and worked her magic on my hair. The final result was amazing. My hair looked…
Oksana is wonderful! She takes her time, listens, and does excellent work. The atmosphere is elegant yet friendly. You should come here and ask for Oksana.
I had the best experience with Caroline! She color corrected my hair and added a row of extensions, and I genuinely couldn’t be happier with the results.She is incredibly talented, so sweet, funny, and made the entire appointment such a fun experience. I felt completely comfortable in her chair, and you can tell she…
Genuinely the best salon in nyc. The staff is great and so is their service. you come in and get greeted by the receptionist nishat and she’s so kind and helpful. i got my hair done by caroline and she genuinely changed my life for the better. my hair has never looked healthier cleaner and more chic. i’m so thankful…
Incredibly happy with my results. Lana the owner is super knowledgeable and I felt very understood while she was training my hair technician (also named Lana). The space is nice and clean. Highly recommend for color jobs.
I came in with a botched balayage after getting my hair done elsewhere for years, and I’m so grateful I found this salon. Adela took the time to do a thorough consultation, listened carefully to exactly what I wanted, and created a plan to fix my hair while keeping it healthy. She was so patient, detail-oriented,…
I've been coming to see Adela at Shear Bliss for years! I've always asked for a balayage, and loved how it turned out!
Oksana is the best! I change my hair color quite often and she knows what I like and gives suggestions that are spot on. The entire staff is top notch and I am always offered coffee, tea or water while I am getting my hair done. Highly recommend Shear Bliss and especially Oksana!
This was great! Got hair done here and they were so diligent and got the exact look I wanted :)
Mia is the best! Since moving to New York four years ago, I’ve tried several salons but could never find someone who could get my color just right. That all changed when I found Mia. From my very first appointment, she gave me exactly the color I wanted. I’m so happy to have finally found my go-to hairstylist in New York. Highly recommend!
Kasia (Kate) was amazing! She covered my grey roots, punched up the shine on my hair and refined my cut into a beautiful and stylish bob!
Daisy is exceptional! I hadn’t had my hair done in over a year, and she completely brought it back to life. Her skill and confidence with balayage made me feel so comfortable throughout the appointment. The result looks and feels expensive, while still being soft and natural. I absolutely love it, and I can already tell it’s going to grow out beautifully.
Taylor did an amazing job on my color and style! Great experience and service. All hands on deck from Taylor, Caroline & Tina!’
Huge Thanks to Lana and her crew for an amazing experience! I had an amazing experience at this salon! I spent nearly six hours there as a student model, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. The two instructors who worked on my hair were incredibly talented, patient, and detail-oriented. They completely…
Caroline is a masterful stylist and colorist who brings both artistry and professionalism to every appointment. Her warmth and genuine care for her clients make the experience as enjoyable as the results are stunning.
Horrific experience and by far the worst salon experience I have had in my life. I went to Taylor to lighten my black-colored hair, trusting that the process would be handled professionally and safely. Instead of approaching it gradually over multiple sessions, he decided to push my hair far beyond what it could…
I have gone to dozens of different salons and seen so many different stylist in my years of getting my hair colored: Shear Bliss is by far the best salon I’ve been to and Daisy is the most amazing stylist I’ve seen. My hair always comes out exactly how i want and she takes her time to make sure my vision comes to life. I can’t recommend her enough!
Caroline is a chemist & magician!! She took my dry and dull hair to shiny and new again, she is an artisan colorist. The salon is clean and comfortable, staff are friendly, and cannot praise Caroline enough!
From a 4-shade hair emergency to blonde perfection! "I landed at the airport in a total panic. To my fellow blondes, you know the struggle: a centimeter of brown growth feels like a crisis, and 'orange' is a trigger word. I was heading into important sales meetings in NYC with hair that was four different shades of…
taylor was awesome! thank you❤️
Lana did an amazing job 💯
Carolyn is a hair magician! She completely transformed my look with a stunning new color, a flawless cut, and a style that looks straight out of a magazine. I’m obsessed with the results and left the salon feeling absolutely radiant—she is truly the best. Thank you for the best transformation!!
Daisy did a fantastic job on my hair! I’ve been growing it out to eventually fully go back to my natural hair color after a decade as a blonde and she did such an amazing job blending the natural and the dyed parts of my hair together. She also fixed an uneven haircut from another salon. Will definitely be back!!
Taylor did a fantastic job for my coloring. He did exactly what I wanted/the best color scheme for my skin. I will definitely come back to him !!!
I started getting my hair done with Taylor last year and each time he has delivered. He is extremely knowledgeable and always takes time to listen to what you want. Everytime I have gotten my hair done with him it has turned out amazing. He is an excellent hair stylist and I will continue to go to him.
I had my AirTouch done here yesterday and I’m honestly beyond impressed! This is hands down the best coloring I’ve ever had. The blend is absolutely seamless, the tone is perfect, and my hair looks so healthy and natural. You can truly tell that only real professionals work here. The attention to detail, the…
Amazing experience! I came in with dark brown hair and wanted to go back to blonde, and I’m beyond happy with the result. The color is beautiful, perfectly blended, and the highlights are flawless. Huge thanks to Adela, she was amazing, incredibly patient, and really made sure to understand what I wanted. I felt…
So happy with my color and cut here! Adela was so helpful in helping me decide what was best for my hair and did such an amazing job! Thank you!!
Christina was SO good!! I went in there wanting something new, I have been blonde for so many years but wanted something darker. Christina took all the inspo pics I showed her and found something in the middle that was perfect for me!! She was very precise in the babylights and lowlights she gave me so I could have…
Laura is a gem! She found the exact hair color I’ve been looking for and made it look effortless. She’s efficient, skilled, and has such a great eye for color. I left feeling confident and super happy with my hair. I’ll definitely be returning for my touch-up—couldn’t recommend her more!
The absolute best experience with Caroline! From the beginning she listened to what I wanted, and gave me honest feedback about what would work (and what wouldn’t!). She was a complete magician in getting rid of the problem areas and creating the perfect grey blend that suited my color tone and style, and that would…
Caroline, did a whole "makeover" something I REALLY needed and absolutely nailed it! Fabulous work, fast and very attentive! HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER!
I came to Shear Bliss NYC Salon for hair coloring and had the absolute best experience with Mia. From the moment I sat in her chair, I could tell she genuinely cared about getting everything exactly right. She took the time to really listen to what I wanted, explained the process clearly, and made me feel completely…
Stella is always the best and does a phenomenal job coloring and cutting my hair!! She was able to curate the perfect shade of cherry brown!! 10/10 would recommend!!
Mia is AMAZING! She is very professional, kind and gives you excellent recommendations! I am totally coming back to Shear Bliss for another styling by Mia.
I’ve been a loyal client for 10 years, and Lana has never disappointed. She takes such great care of my hair — it stays long, healthy, and radiant. Even with my naturally dark brown hair, she always gets my blonde just right. Highly recommend!
my aunt been going to Elsa for a couple years and I needed my hair color corrected and Elsa is wonderful , I had an amazing experience from the time I got there til the time I left. Thank you so much Elsa see you in 2 months :)!!
Lana is the absolute best blond colorist in the city! Been coming here for 8 years and wouldn’t go anywhere else!
Caroline did an amazing job fixing my hair and giving me a blonde that I LOVE!
Let me start by saying I’m picky and I trust no one with my hair. I’ve been searching for someone who can both cut and color it properly, especially now that it’s gotten thinner as I’ve gotten older. This time around, I specifically wanted someone who understands how to work with that. I decided to try this place…
Love this salon! Best hair color and blowouts Accommodating with scheduling too!
Had a great experience at Shear Bliss salon with Laura. Have been going to her for 3 years and she does an amazing job every time. She is extremely attentive, talented, and knowledgeable and does all she can to accommodate requests and any specifics to your hair type. Highly recommend Laura for anyone looking for a great stylist in NYC.
Have been coming to see Lana for years. Her and her staff are amazing! She’s a color wizard and really listens to what you want while being honest about what can realistically be achieved. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a true professional whether doing keratin, color or a cut and blow dry.
Elsa did a fabulous job in color correcting my hair challenge. I appreciate her customer service, dedication, and art. I highly recommend her.
⸻ This place is extremely overpriced, and the prices they give you upfront are completely different once you get to the register—much higher. Every time, the stylist blames the cashier for the overcharge. The blow-drying is consistently poor, and they don’t seem to know how to properly color hair (the color fades…
I got my hair done by Maria at the salon, and can I say she did a PHENOMENAL job! I got my hair done by another salon and and they completely did my color wrong and damaged my hair, where I came out with my roots a different color and hair having three ugly shades of blonde. MARIA IS A LIFE SAVER! She didn’t rush…
Mia fixed a truly horrible highlight job I had done at another salon. She really took the time to understand what I wanted and knew exactly how to execute. This was my first time at Shear Bliss and I will definitely be going back! Thank you Mia!!!
Very good experience with Laura! Love how my hair turned out!
I have trusted Mia at Shear Bliss with my hair for several years now and all my special occasions. I never walk out disappointed and I feel so confident after! She takes the time to understand my vision and makes sure to treat my hair with the utmost care — and she knows how to adapt it for my natural wavy hair. Book with Mia!! 🫶🏼🎀
What can I say about Caroline except that she’s a true magician when it comes to color for the past 20 years she’s been my trusted colorist absolute artist who combines exceptional skill, and genuine warmth. She’s personable, attentive, and meticulous about every detail and sharing flawless results every time I will follow you to the end of the moon!
I've been coming to Shear Bliss for the past several years to get my hair and balayage done from Taylor. He is amazing, talented and I always leave the salon feeling like a million bucks. Taylor really listens to what each client wants and always over delivers. Please don't leave NYC;) Thanks again for a gorgeous…
My hair has never been shinier, more healthy, and long since Caroline has been cutting and coloring it. I recommend the Sheer Bliss Salon and Caroline (but everyone there seems very nice and professional) 5 stars. I would give it 10 if I could. My husband loves when I come home with my hair done; he always notices 🤩
I went to Shear Bliss today to see Caroline. I’ve been going to Caroline for color/cut/blow outs for over 10 years. She is simply the best. She’s a master colorist and gets it right every single time. I will never go to anyone else for my hair. I have long, thick, wavy hair and she knows exactly how to handle it everytime. She. Is. The. GOAT.
I saw Elsa today! OMG this woman is a miracle worker! I walked into the salon with a disaster, with an orange hair, and this woman turned my hair into color that is beyond beautiful! Golden brown- She is an absolute professional, and her skills are unmatched!!!! UNMATCHED!!!!! Also so so so sweet, and down to earth. Truly, a wonderful woman!
Laura is amazing I’ve been coming here for almost 4 years and she always delivers. Laura makes sure she understands the vision and checks in to ensure both parties are envisioning the same color. Franchescha her assistant is equally as attentive. Thanks Shear Bliss for always giving confidence!
My hair is incredible. I came into the salon with only a rough idea in mind and that was all. Elsa literally gave me a better hair do than I could have imagined for myself. The color, cut and layering are perfect. Thankyou so much for making me look incredible <3
What an incredible salon!!! Exceptional service. Sometimes I can sit in salons all day but this didn’t take too long. Professional work. Thank you Taylor! Can’t recommend enough!
Marina took me from washed out natural hair to perfect pink! She really made me feel beautiful and the whole team was really kind.
My stylist was Taylor. I came in with previously highlighted blonde hair and I difficult ask of making me extremely blonde with as little yellow tones as possible. Taylor did an incredible job with the highlight and also toned my hair perfectly to give me the “white” blonde tones I was looking for! Would definitely…
I came to Elsa for help to fix my damaged hair and discolored highlights. She literally saved my hair, made my hair look good again, and made me feel good again. It was a big job and she stayed late after salon closing to finish. Elsa, I am very grateful, can’t wait to come back!!
Stella is an amazing hairstylist! Her hands are truly magic. I came in with all white hair from not having time to take care of it, and she transformed it into something beautiful, just like she always does. Thank you, Stella — you are truly the best!”
Daisy was wonderful! She did such a wonderful job bringing me back to blonde. She was such a wonderful, nice human as well.
Oksana is absolutely amazing! I feel so lucky to have found her. She truly listens to what I want and always delivers exactly what I’m envisioning — often even better. I’ve never left her chair feeling anything less than thrilled. I get so many compliments on my hair after every visit — the color, the cut, the…
This was my first time here and I absolutely loved it!! Laura did an amazing job with the balayage and color consultation, and the hair cut. I 100% recommend!!!!
Laura went above and beyond to provide me the blonde I wanted. My hair was very damaged from previous work at a different salon; Laura explained the process to me and in the end delivered exactly what I wanted. They have made a returning client out of me!
ELSA IS THE BEST💖 I was a mess after another salon’s horrible work and Elsa transformed my hair in the best way possible without damaging it more. She was also so sweet and made me feel comfortable the whole time. She speaks Spanish!!!! Thank you Elsa!
This is my 4th time coming to Shear Bliss and every time I had a great experience. I booked with Mia twice recently and she was so kind and patient with me. I saw her IG account of her work and really liked how she did layers so when I told her what I wanted for my haircut, she talked me through what worked best for…
Mia spent so much time and effort making my hair look amazing!!
It doesn’t take long in the chair to understand that Shear Bliss and specifically Daisy deserve all the praise they get. A comfortable and pleasant experience tucked away in what looks like any regular salon but is far from regular. The work speaks for itself. And Daisy—hands and heart of gold. The fact that she…
Taylor is incredible - love my new hair! Refreshed highlights, did balayage and a fresh haircut. Perfect blonde for summer
Mia has been my go-to stylist for the past two years, and I’ve consistently been impressed with the quality of her work. She’s done air touch balayage, half highlights, and all my haircuts. Her attention to detail and technical skill are clear in everything she does. What I especially appreciate is how she takes…
Oksana is the best.
I usually don't write reviews (because lazy) but the service here was so exceptional that I can't gatekeep. This isn't a highlight job, it's a labor of love! I came in with very damaged hair. I was training for an ultramarathon and more running means more sweating means more frequent washing. My colorist Mia gave my…
Mia is fabulous as a stylist and colorist! She worked with me to correct my color and I absolutely love it. She is so lovely and accommodating- love the salon! .
I have been coming here for several years and they nail it every time! Taylor is amazing with blonde highlights !
Maria did such an amazing job on my hair! She helped my hair get back to a more natural color that I love so much. I’m so impressed and happy with how it looks. 🥰
