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…
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!
This salon is SO wonderful and Elsa did an incredible job with my hair!! Color, cut, and the best service. Staff is also ridiculously sweet. Can’t believe this gem is so close in the neighborhood. Will definitely be back for more with Elsa and Shear Bliss!!!
Taylor did a balayage on me and it turned out exactly how I wanted it. Super happy with the results and Taylor himself - so professional!
Laura is amazing! She really listened to what I wanted and made my hair look even better than I imagined. My hair feels healthier, looks beautiful, and I’ve been getting so many compliments. Highly recommend her if you want someone you can truly trust with your hair!
Elsa was absolutely amazing. Not only did she do the treatment I requested, but it was clear she cared about my wants & hair health based on her recommendations. I will definitely be back for her expertise!

Lana did an amazing job 💯
Had the most amazing haircut and blow dry by Laura! I got long layers with face framing in the front. She did such a wonderful job, I love my new hair!
ELSA WAS AMAZING! She somehow did exactly what I wanted with minimal direction. Crushed layers and made me feel like a new person. So happy with this choice!!! Will definitely be back
Just went to Shear Bliss for the first time for a highlight and hair cut. Laura is amazing! My hair has never looked this good. And everyone who works there is so nice. I will definitely be a repeat customer!
It’s always such a great experience with Oksana! Not only are my haircuts great, but Oksana and the team are so helpful and accommodating. Truly the best!
Here’s a natural, polished Google review in English: ⸻ I had an amazing experience at this salon!

Laura is one of the best stylists! I’m very picky and she does a great job every time
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!!
If you have trust issues when it comes to your hair- Elsa ELIMINATES THEM. I have not had a professional touch my hair in 10 years until finding Elsa today!!! She made me feel so heard and understood how important it was to me to keep my length. She cut off my dead ends, gave me super long layers/face framing pieces…
Had a great experience! Mia is awesome!!
Elsa is the best! I gave her full control and she did not dissapoint! She is very skilled and kind!
Shear Bliss is an amazing salon. I have been coming here for 4 years and always go to Laura and she is the best!!! Everyone here is very nice very professional and lovely. Laura always cuts and blow dries my hair perfectly!!!!

Been going there for 5 years now. Consistent, amazing hair gloss and haircuts !
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!!
I had my first appointment with David for a keratin blowout and haircut, and it was a wonderful experience.
David was amazing!!
David was AMAZING!!!! I usually don’t get my hair done due to traumatic experiences with past hairdressers in my area (Delaware) but this was truly such an amazing experience with him and I will definitely be back! My hair has never looked so perfect genuinely.
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.
Caroline gave me a fantastic haircut! The best I’ve had in many years! I have thick wavy hair and she did an outstanding job! I can’t wait to come back for color. The feel of the salon is really wonderful—-great vibe. Thank you Caroline!
Laura went above and beyond to make the perfect haircut, highlights and colouring best suitable for me. I had the best experience and would greatly recommend Laura.
Michelle is an incredibly skilled hair dresser. She cuts my layers beautifully, and I get so many compliments after I get my hair cut from her. She really knows how to work with my thicker hair, and she listens to my feedback, which I greatly appreciate. I highly recommend Michelle from Shear Bliss!
I came in with very dry hair and dead ends. David completely transformed my hair. There is no frizz and it’s so shiny! Highly recommend coming here!
David did an awesome job cutting my hair! Super meticulous. Highly recommend!
I started working with Oksana to color and cut my hair. She is amazing! I started graying a few years ago and always loved my natural color, yet every hair colorist I went too could never get it right (always too dark, too red, grew out bad) until Oksana! My hair looks amazing - it’s exactly the color I wanted ,…
I love the way Oksana does my color and haircut! I have been coming to her for over 4 years and always get great service. Today I came for a short cut and I'm loving the results. Always helpful with her ideas . Highl y recommended.
Such a great haircut! Laura took so much time with me. Will definitely be back!
Caroline was a fantastic hair stylist! She gave me the best cut and color, and I genuinely enjoyed her company throughout the appointment. I came in with dirty blonde hair and walked out with gorgeous blonde highlights that I absolutely love. She really listened and nailed exactly what I wanted. Thank you so much, Caroline — I can’t wait to come back!
I’ve been coming here for years and absolutely love it! It’s great for my curly hair and I highly Reccomend David!!
Michelle really took care of me! Gave me a really great cut and color. She really listened to what I wanted. I highly recommend her 😊
Laura is fantastic!! Have been coming here for years, truly never disappoints.
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…
I’ve been getting my haircut with Mia for two years, and she is simply the best! Just a wealth of knowledge when it comes to creating the best cut to accentuate your face shape and features. She is also so friendly and remembers all the little details. Highly highly recommend!
Michelle is great!!
Shear Bliss never disappoints!! David was great and gave me exactly what I wanted - a nice low maintenance trim while still keeping a good amount of length.
Second time coming into Shear Bliss, it’s been about 4 years (whoops) since my last haircut, but David was phenomenal. Quick, professional and reshaped, thinned out and layered my hair perfectly. I will definitely be coming back (sooner this time), cannot recommend Shear Bliss and David enough!
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…
Michelle is the best. She always does a wonderful job with my haircut and blow outs. She even did a K18 treatment which made me my hair healthier and shinier. Would recommend going to Michelle
Oksana was absolutely AMAZINGGG. Nice conversationalist & completely made my vision come to life. LOVEEE ITTT
I went to Shear Bliss because I live across the street and needed a last-minute haircut—and I’m so glad I did. Mia gave me the most beautiful cut. She’s incredibly skilled with layers and bangs, and everything turned out exactly how I hoped. I highly recommend going here and asking for Mia! ❤️
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!!
Taylor is amazing! He did such a good job with my cut and blow out. Will definitely be back!
Laura S was great! She listened to exactly what I asked for and I loved the way my haircut came out! Everyone in this salon is always so friendly and does a great job.
Mia Liu is so awesome! First of all she’s so nice and pleasant! But also she is so talented with both color and cut. I love what Mia did with my hair and I enjoyed my time at shear bliss today!
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!
Loved my haircut
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…
Amazing haircut by Maria! Would definitely recommend
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.
