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…
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…
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.
Stella gave me the most beautiful transformation. She has an amazing eye for detail and made sure everything was perfect before I left.
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…
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.
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,…
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!’
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 -…
I am beyond satisfied with my experience and highly recommend Shear Bliss NYC Salon to anyone looking for fabulous hair and fantastic service! I really loved how Laura did my hair! She is very nice and talented and did a fabulous job. She really listened to what I wanted and made it happen. I will definitely come back here again!
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 ✨✨
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!
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!!
Taylor is the BEST. I got a hair cut (with face framing for the first time) and a blowout with curls at the bottom and I’m simply obsessed. Best haircut of my life, only ever having Taylor do my hair from now on!!
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.
Taylor did an amazing job!!! I come to him every time. Highly recommend
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!
I came in for a balayage on dark hair and Melina did a wonderful job beginning with a thorough consultation. She took her time to ensure I was satisfied with the results and I am indeed very happy with the outcome! I have very thick hair that can be difficult to deal with but she did a fantastic job. I would…
Michelle did a cut and blow dry for me! It was amazinggggg! will def be coming back, great service and results.
Caroline, did a whole "makeover" something I REALLY needed and absolutely nailed it! Fabulous work, fast and very attentive! HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER!
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 :)!!
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 had an unfortunate experience at a recent hair appointment elsewhere, and Laura truly saved the day. She took the time to coach me through exactly what I needed to say to the other stylist to get the issue corrected, which I really appreciated. On top of that, she expertly cut my clip-in extensions to blend…
David did my hair and it was perfect! I have 3c hair type and he was still able to get my hair super straight after blowing it out and flat ironing it. It lasted for two weeks and didn’t frizz quickly during the first. I enjoy the place and wil continue to go back to David for my hair.
Mia has been cutting my hair for over 2 years and always does an amazing job! She has great attention to detail and is very personable. Would highly recommend.
I’ve been with Oksana for almost a year. This time I wanted to change my color and I had a complicated history with my previous processes, but she took time to really ask me what I would/wouldn’t be good with and met me in exactly where I was trying to go. Also haircuts. Beautiful job each time. It’s like so…
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…
Everyone knows once you find a good salon with perfect stylists you never go elsewhere and this place is definitely that! Taylor fixed my blunt blond job and blended it so beautifully that I had to come back when I made the choice to go red. They know what they’re doing and Taylor especially has great instincts on…
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
I’ve been coming to Shear Bliss for over 5 years and I’ve always had the best experiences here. Oksana and Franchesa are a fantastic team and I always leave the salon thrilled with the way my hair turned out. Can’t recommend them enough!
I did a haircut with Laura, I love how caring and kind she is, I did went without any idea of what to do, she gave me recommendations of what will be pro with my type of hair and face shape, also she gave me some advice of how to take care of my hair and products that will work great, loved hair can’t wait to visit NYC and do it again!
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. 🥰
Got a same day appointment with Michelle and had an amazing experience. I got exactly what I wanted and everyone was incredibly professional and courteous. I will be returning for my next haircut.
I have dark hair and wanted to lighten it but didn't want to deal with touching it up often and Elsa suggested doing a balayage for low maintenance. After trying to find a shade that would work, Elsa worked her magic. I felt like a new person. Thank you Elsa!
