Amanda did an amazing job with my haircut and blowout! I came in a little nervous but I showed her my inspo pics and she understood and delivered better than I could imagine! Would recommend to anyone looking for a new hair stylist!!!!!!
This has been such a great experience. I care so much about health of my hair, but still wanted some color. And let me tell you!!!! LANA AND HER BLEACH-FREE BALAYAGE is the answer!!! Hair is soft after and you still get your perfect hair.
I came to see one of the owners Lace last week and i had an amazing experience . She is so talented and made sure i left looking exactly how i described to her . she was so sweet and offered me drinks throughout, made me feel super comfortable. will definitely be coming back !
Came in with a messy haircut and left with a fresh new look! Laura paid great attention to every detail and had a super positive attitude. Highly recommend!
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…
I had my haircut and coloring done by Melina for the first time, and I’m so happy with the results! She was friendly, professional, and really took the time to understand what I wanted. I absolutely love how my hair turned out—the color and haircut are exactly what I was hoping for. Thank you, Melina, for making my…
I absolutely loved my experience at this salon! I originally thought I was going to need bleach to get the color I wanted but they explained that I actually didn’t need it and I’m so glad I listened to them! My hair came out even better than I expected and I’m genuinely so happy with the results. It was bleach FREE…
Elsa is beyond talented. She absolutely transformed my hair and I could not be happier with it. I have been to many hair stylists in NYC and none compare to Elsa.
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 in with yellow hair from a terrible appointment elsewhere. Elsa talked through how realistically it would be difficult to fix, but the outcome was amazing. Elsa and Ola really looked after me. Im really grateful my hair was fixed!!
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! 🤍✨
Daisy was an absolute pleasure to work with. She is so informative about the process for my hair! She was careful to keep my hair healthy, but still got me my desired results! She will be my go to stylist from here on out!
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!
Had such a great experience! Everyone was so kind / attentive, and I loved how my hair turned out. Thank you to Elsa and Tina!!
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.
Taylor was fantastic! She understood the look I was going for immediately and somehow made it even better than I imagined. Definitely coming back.
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.
Laura made my entire appointment feel effortless. She listened carefully, gave r great recommendations, and my hair turned out absolutely gorgeous.
Lace is absolutely incredible! From the consultation to the final result, everything felt so personalized and luxurious. She truly understands what looks best on you.
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.
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.
Elsa was great! I got long layers and a trim, it was the perfect shaping and clean up. Looking forward to coming back.
This is an update to my previous review. I have been a regular at Shear Bliss since 2023 and I am still very happy. All of the staff is friendly, professional and respectful. I see Taylor for color gloss, haircuts, and blowouts. He consistently delivers and goes above and beyond every time without exception. He is…
Elsa did such a beautiful job ! Loved my cut and style!
I had a phenomenal experience with Taylor. I had never dyed my hair before and he was absolutely wonderful from making me feel at ease to advising me. I have thin black hair and he gave me a no bleach balyage that makes me feel beyond summer ready. Ill definitely be coming back to him!
My bleach free balayage with Taylor was spectacular! He took the time to listen and ensure the color fit me best as well as did not damage my curly hair
Update: Another season passed and I love, love my new hair cut by Mia. Please book her for your next appointment as you won’t regret it!! I've been coming to this salon for two years, and Mia is my go-to stylist! She understands my hair type, listens carefully to what I want, and offers subtle yet expert…
✨ I cannot recommend Oksana at Shear Bliss enough! She gave me the best haircut and balayage of my life—and that’s saying something after 35 years! 🤩 From the moment I sat in her chair, she really listened to what I wanted, gave thoughtful advice, and absolutely nailed the look. The balayage is flawlessly blended,…
I have been going to Oksana at Shear Bliss for years and absolutely love her!!! She has never failed in giving me the perfect haircut. I even came back to her in the city when I moved to NJ because she’s that great. Highly suggest!!
Leaving the salon with a fresh haircut by Elsa, she is amazing!! Finally found my go to place in NYC!
This was my first time at this Salon. Was very busy however Elsa is very welcoming and really listened to what I wanted. She was very professional and easy to talk to at the same time. She did not rush me or any step of the process. I will absolutely be booking more haircut with her.
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!
My first time at Shear - Elsa did a phenomenal job!! She was so patient and took the time to listen to what I wanted. The balayage came out so pretty and natural looking! I 100% recommend this place - they were all so welcoming and friendly :) I will definitely be coming back for Elsa again!!
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!
Had an amazing experience with Elsa. She did an incredible job with my chocolate brown balayage (without bleach!!) and cut/refresh. Everyone at the salon was also so kind and helpful. Will absolutely be coming back!!
Taylor did an amazing job on my color and style! Great experience and service. All hands on deck from Taylor, Caroline & Tina!’
Had such a great experience getting a cut from Laura!! She was super nice and helpful
Scheduled an appointment as a first time customer with Taylor and the experience was great. Taylor made great recommendations on how to take care of my hair after the color, was very attentive and friendly. I am for sure coming back again!
Such an amazing haircut experience with Laura! Always clean, comfortable and understanding.
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…
Laura S. is incredibly talented. My blonde looks like it did when I was a child, which is what I’m always aiming for. Natural and healthy. She is so precise with each strand of hair, ensuring my hair isn’t damaged. I love how much of a perfectionist she is when it comes to color and cut. She is a true artist. She is…
Today I had my haircut with Taylor and also did a semi permanent gloss treatment! I was looking for a solution to cover some grey hairs but didn’t want to start with permanent dye. I had never dyed or colored my hair before so I was very nervous but Taylor was very reassuring and understanding. He did an amazing job…
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.
I went on a Friday afternoon and it was busy! But Taylor took so much time to make sure that every detail of my haircut was perfect. O absolutely love how it turned out and would 100% recommend him as stylist!
This is my second time seeing Elsa and she never disappoints. I usually get long layers and a trim with a blow out. She’s very skilled and knows how to cut my curly hair well! I’ll continue coming back to see her!
Taylor’s the best! Always the best service and he takes care of me!
Taylor gave amazing haircut. I am so satisfied. I recommend all of you to go to him.
Book with Stella!! She gave me the most amazing layered haircut and recommended a treatment that made my hair shiny and less frizzy. She really put time and care into both the cut and styling. I couldn’t be happier!
I came in on a Thursday to get a color correction balayage with taylor and it was absolutely beautiful,The service was not only extraordinary but the stylists specifically make sure your time is spent comfortably and you leave feeling absolutely great I would 100% recommend this salon to anyone thinking about it -…
Really happy with how my caramel balayage turned out by Laura! My hair feels so healthy and blended beautifully, and the overall color is super pretty. Everyone there was also so sweet and welcoming 💕
I came in for a color correction and Taylor worked his magic to give me the ashy blonde of my dreams! never did i think i could achieve this color and he did the lords work! I’ve dealt with many stylists, and many color corrections and he surpassed them all! If you ever need a color correction or fun color, ask for Taylor. He’s one of the best in nyc!
I’ve gotten a haircut from Taylor twice now and they’ve been great both times! Everyone that works here is so nice.
Four years going to Shear Bliss — Daisy nails the color and cut every time. Love the attention to detail and care shown to each client ✨✨
I had a wash, blow dry, and cut with David, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. I arrived a bit early, and they kindly offered to get me started early, which I really appreciated. I had extremely long hair that I hadn’t cut in about a year, and David managed to shape and style it so beautifully.…
Daisy is the best! I’ve been coming to her for 4 years now as she is the only one I trust with my hair. Nobody listens to me better and does exactly what I want. It gets better everytime. I’ve had both balayage and highlights by Daisy and my hair comes out perfect everytime. I’ve always had issues with my hair not…
