Absolutely thrilled with my experience! I’ve been on the hunt for a great hairstylist on the Upper West Side, and I’m so glad I found The House of Beauty.

I’ve been going to Tony every week without fail, and I can honestly say he is the best in town. It’s so rare to find a hairdresser in the U.S. who truly understands and can execute the classic Lebanese wavy style—but Tony nails it every single time. His work is on par with what you’d get in Beirut, and to have that…

Ali makes miracles happen! This is the first haircut that I’ve ever been completely happy about in all my years of asking for “long layers” from dozens of hair stylists in the NYC area who could never bring my vision to life. My hair is stubbornly flat and Ali somehow managed to give it movement and volume. I would recommend him to everyone :)

Ali is the most talented hairstylist! Came in for a long overdue haircut and blowout. After sharing my vision with Ali, he gave me feedback and suggestions that made the style even better and more custom to me (e.g., my hair type, head shape, etc.). I could not be happier with the end result and look forward to returning to Ali for my hair maintenance.

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!

My best recommendation to their European celebrity hair stylist/ colorist Goga. If you have a dark hair and want really nice soft blond without any damage - go to Goga; you want blow dry that least for 4-5 days -visit Goga, want haircut that suits your face call Him …. Overall it’s a cozy neighborhood hair salon, but the reason why I go there is Goga…

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.…
