From my relaxing shampoo to the excellent precision haircut-I keep coming back. All stylists and especially Vera & Rafaela take the time and really care about the work they do.

Ernest blows out my hair better than anyone else and I've been getting blowouts for 30 years! My hair is straight, and thick so it's hard to get fullness and body from a blowout but Ernest does a phenomenal job every time.
Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Apr 28, 2023Previous reviewI absolutely loved how Ernest blew out my hair. No one has ever gotten it right the first time! I asked for fullness and body and he delivered! I'll definitely be going to him from now on.
The hair washing was very good too.
So happy I discovered this salon! - Tamlyn C.New York, NY3757129May 2, 2022
Update: Quick action taken on their end after I posted, turns out the full highlights voucher IS up to date (receptionist was just mistaken) so I've repurchased and booked for next week. For anyone wondering the receptionist says it's starting at $35 for the toner charge (this was mentioned in the fine print section so no issue with that).
FYI for anyone buying a voucher on pulsd -- they do not honor full highlights vouchers. I bought one for $99 and just called to make my appointment but was told that they didn't offer full highlights vouchers, only partial for $99 and full would be an extra $50-75. I asked for a refund for the voucher since I wasn't going to use it at this point and the person on the phone told me I had to wait until Wednesday to talk to the manager in order to get one. I ended up emailing pulsd support and got a refund from pulsd. I get that websites get outdated and I'm glad they stopped me at the appointment stage so I didn't have to walk in and be turned away which is why I'm giving 2 stars instead of 1.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Apr 9, 2022
Had a really good experience at this place today! I was way overdue for a haircut. It was easy to make an appointment yesterday for today with Rafaela. The salon is clean and has a good atmosphere. They asked if I wanted anything to drink which was a nice touch. Friendly employees. Solid wash and conditioning- thorough and relaxing. One of my favorite parts of a haircut. Rafaela is sweet and seems passionate and knowledgeable about what she does. I did a Yelp check in for 10% off as I'm a new client and I did get a discount but I don't think it was the full 10%. However, I didn't got her questioning because it would only have been a few extra dollars and I was happy with the service. The prices is pretty standard, $88 for a cut and blowdry, $85 with the discount. It's close to my apartment so I will probably go back next time I need a cut.

Talented and friendly stylists. Always leave with a great haircut! Also love the edm/pop music playing in the background.

Lovely, caring, trained professional staff who take time to understand client's wishes and to offer suggestions while making sure client is comfortable. Lovely head massage too during hair wash.

I've been looking for a good salon in this area for years- VB Studio was easy to book (online) & reasonably priced so I gave it a shot. The space is clean and pretty, staff was warm and friendly and my stylist Gina was very professional and experienced. After discussing what I wanted for my cut the whole appointment (color, cut & dry) took 1.5 hours and I was able to get to work on time. Thank you for the great experience I will definitely be back soon!

The best been going here almost two years- if you're looking for a new spot, you found it! Consistently wonderful experiences and everyone on the team is a gem. Rafaela absolutely nails it every time with color, cut, and styling--we've mixed it up time to time and I always leave feeling like it's my new-best hair
