Hair & The City

Had the best experience. Love the staff they were so friendly. Was in NY for the day they fit myself and 2 friends in. We had the best blow dry ever. We were Broadway ready. Thank you !’

I have been coming to see Francesca consistently since my first review. Saw her today for the 3^rd time since my original review. Continued 5 star experiences! Thank you Francesca for being so terrific both as a stylist and as a person :).

Raven was wonderful and made my hair look great! It lasted through the entire party weekend! THANK YOU RAVEN!

Raven! you rock girl!
I am so happy with mahogany highlights in my hair, loving it!

Just came back to my hometown NY for work and play and had a blow dry @ Hair & The City!

I followed my stylist/​colorist, James Andersen, here from another salon. First off, Hair & the City is a wonderful salon. Friendly staff and friendly patrons. Great, edgy atmosphere as well. Now, to James. James has been cutting, coloring, and styling my hair for more than 7 years. I wouldn’t dream of letting another person come near my hair with scissors or color. He is amazing, always does exactly what I ask. And on the occasion he wants to try something new, we chat about it and go from there. That said, I trust him implicitly. If you’re looking for a talented stylist who happens to be an amazing person as well, James is your man!

RAVEN, RAVEN OMG! She’s amazing, she listens to her clients and really consults them every step of the way. She’s fun, sweet, a true perfectionist and passionate about what she does. She managed to recover my damaged orange hair that was colored by another salon. I can’t believe this beautiful hair is mine! The rest of the staff were super nice and it was a great atmosphere in general. She was very gentle when removing the foils from my hair or washing/​combing my hair, It was the most pain free hair appointment I’ve ever had and I’m beyond happy with my hair. She also styled my hair beautifully before I left. Thank you Raven, You’re stuck doing my hair forever, your’e AWESOME!

RAVEN, RAVEN, RAVEN!!! Go to Raven. I was in NYC doing a show for about a month, and needed a blowout ASAP. Raven is gifted… not only did she treat my very full head of hair with gentle respect, she gave me the most glamorous blowout I’ve ever had! So I went back 4 more times during my stay, including having her do my roots. She matched color expertly. I received compliments almost daily, and was stopped on the STREET twice! She is a rock star to the fullest extent! Not to mention a sweetheart with a beautiful voice. I will miss her, and definitely will be back next time I’m in NYC.

Awesome! I am a busy working actress so my hair needs to be camera ready at a moments notice. Scott always comes to the rescue and makes me look and feel fabulous. I also love the fact that when he cuts my hair it continues to look good day after day. I don’t know what he does but I feel like it’s easier for me to style at home because of the way he cuts it and that saves me time when I am getting ready for audtions. The stylist on the set of my most recent film even asked who cut it. She said my hair was easy to work with because I had obvioulsy gone to a great hairdresser and she wanted to know so she could send other actors there. So I would definitely recommend this place. Scott is not only an excellent hairdresser he is also a wonderful person!

I found this place via Unilocal after I was searching for a place not too far from where I live. Given the good testimonials I decided to give the place a try.
After visiting four times with three different stylists, I can say that I was always happy with my haircut on each occasion. I showed the folks how I liked my hair based on previous photos and they all did a great job of taking their time to replicate my favorite cut. What I like is how friendly the folks are here, and how they really spend time to give you a great cut.
I also like the atmosphere of the place and how it feels very relaxed and spacious. I definitely see myself coming back frequently in the future and recommend this place to anyone who’s in the area looking for good stylists who know what they are doing.

So I was desperately looking for a place to just wash and blow dry my hair last night. All of the places I called were overbooked or about to close. I call Hair & the city and they take me in about 40 minutes to close. I had Raven do my hair and she had an appointment but I arrived before her client came in. As a reward for waiting patiently once her client arrived (in the middle of my wash) was free deep conditioning! My hair smells and feels amazing & they were nice enough to fit me in. Not to mention she styled it nicely :) I will definitely be coming here again if I’m in the area.

Great little salon near Times Square but away from the crowded streets. Just what I needed after all the sightseeing around the city.

Love this place. Got my hair colored and cut by Ben and he did an amazing job. He right away got what I wanted and I was super happy with the results. The salon is lovely and very relaxed. Will be back for sure.

I highly recommend Raven! She created a gorgeous updo for my short hair, cleverly designing it to give me so much volume. I loved it!

Went for a blow out for a black tie event. Francesca was terrific! Asked me what I wanted and delivered beyond my expectations. Very reasonable, got a last minute appointment and the music was terrific. I shall return!

While spending a weekend in Manhattan near Times Square, I found Hair & The City on Unilocal.I needed a haircut before meeting friends for dinner. They got me in within an hour of my call and the haircutter that cut my hair (sorry I don’t remember his name) did a great job and paid attention to detail. I left happy and felt good when I met my friends later.

This is the first review i’ve ever written, but i felt compelled to.
Went here one time a few years back and had an average haircut. enough to warrant me going back a second time. Went back recently and probably had the worst haircut of my life. Seriously sill trying to grow it out to fix it. It was utterly bizarre too, because it’s like he realised he’d f*cked up mid cut, couldn’t be bothered fixing it, and sent me on my way with sopping wet hair! i couldn’t believe it. i’m sure they could read the shock on my face. This is nothing personal to the staff cause they were lovely. but if you want an honest review. go somewhere else!!!

We were tourists in NYC, and my daughter wanted to get her hair done while we were there. I thought to myself, how am I going to find a place on a Monday with no appointment ???
We got lucky! Hair & The City had some cancellations so they were able to squeeze her in. YEAH!!!
I had researched this place through Unilocal so I was pretty confident we had found a decent place to get her hair cut and styled. Well they exceeded our expectations. They did a fantastic job! They spent over an hour on her hair, and since we were traveling as a family, the owner made sure we were also comfortable while waiting for her to get her hair done.
We were all very happy to have found this place!!!

I used to go to Francesca when she worked on the east side and followed her to the west. I always have short hair and I let her do whatever she wants and I’m never disappointed! The shop is small and fun, the artwork is cool and everyone seems to work well with one another. Love it!
P. S. Francesca is worth the wait so if she’s booked up ask for her cancel list but I always book ahead :)

Had great expectations. Beautiful spot and very friendly. I had a picture of the hairstyle I wanted and stressed that I have a job interview this week. She have me what looks like a faux hawk instead of a pompadour and accidentally shaved off my goatee instead if my mustache. The other 3 barbers saw and heard how disappointed I was and said nothing. A $ 5 discount wasn’t fair compensation. Will not return.
