Marco did a fantastic job with my balayage! He listened to what I wanted (and didn’t want) and created a beautiful natural color and blend. Everyone was kind, and the salon felt clean and relaxed!

Tony was amazing! When I arrived, Tony introduced himself and asked me what I was looking to get done, I told him I wanted a haircut with long layers, a face frame and a little bit of length taken off. He did just that! He was precise and took his time. The hair cut and blow out came out really nice. I am really happy with the results.

My experience with Ali was wonderful. He is very professional with his work and provides guidance based on your skin tone and face shape. I simply loved his work! The atmosphere was very pleasant, and Ali is such a lovely person. He’s incredibly talented, and his hands work magic. I will definitely be coming back many more times. Highly recommend!

Here in NYC you will find hair stylist on almost every other corner but rarely you will find talented artist. Ali Akduru is that talented artist. He did amazing work on my hair, he listened and did not only exactly what I wanted he did better then that. You can trust him with your hair, he will not disappoint. I'll be returning customer for sure!

The Multi-talented Marianna Cekaj (owner), is nothing short of an artisan. She does with hair, what the great masters did with art. I’m quite serious. I’ve been to her boutique hair salon three times and will not go anywhere else. I’ve been looking for an amazing and charming hairstylist for a very long time.…

I went to get my hair highlighted via the balayage method and have a hair date with my mom who got a haircut. Everything started out great, staff seemed nice, especially the assistant, ended ok even though I got layers when I specifically asked for no layers and my hair was styled in a way I would never.
