Should have read Citysearch First – OMG, When I read the reviews, after I had a disastrous haircut, I was not all that shocked to see that there were a few that I could have written myself ! I was surprised by the arrogance and indifference to my wants, by William, my haircutter, who was more interested in telling me his credentials, than listening to my concerns. . I had mentioned a particular hairstyle type that I wanted, and he couldn't have been less interested to find out what I meant. At one point during the haircut, I... read more

Fabulous Cuts and Styles! – Like the majority of the people I know, we are always trying to find the best places to get a haircut. One that will cut it the way you want it without you telling them. I cannot say this will be my last place to go because I do love trying new ones out there, what I can say is that I was pretty impressed by the haircut. I?ve always enjoyed their hair products so I figured I?d give this a shot. I look at the cut, price, and friendliness for an overall rating. I can?t think of anything here that wi... read more

I read the reviews and didn't believe them – I read a batch of bad reviews and figured it was the competition having fun. Forget it. This place is living on its past reputation. The stylists are so busy fawning over each other than they entirely neglect the needs of the client. I tried the haircuts three times (guess that makes me pretty foolish). Each was worse than the other - but weirdly, they all looked great for about three days. Then plop ; they fell like a bag of straw. Probably because the colorist there absolutely f... read more

Horrible – I went to Crystal yesterday and asked for scissor layers and some fringe around my face. I only wanted one to two inches taken off the length. My hair was about 12 inches past my shoulders when I went in, and 2 inches past my shoulders when I left. My thick hair has been reduced to a limp, frizzy mess. The left side is about an inch and a half longer then right...sans one strand of hair that extends 2 inches past the rest. I spent 2 years growing out my hair, and now it looks like I'll either be getting a bob or s... read more

haircutter not a stylist – I'm giving B&B two stars because the salon itself is lovely with beautiful views. However, I've now had two bad haircuts from William. I don't know why I went back -- I guess I was hoping the first bad cut was a fluke. I have LOTS of fine, wavy hair, and William was recommended by the reception staff because he could "handle it". The first time he thinned it out way too much then styled it into a frizzy mop that my partner still laughs about. Six months later I asked him to suggest styles that woul... read more

THE hair salon of New York City – Bumble and Bumble is where people train to be stylists. All Stylist's must have at least 12 years experence before they can get a job at Bumble. Go here and ask for Roy; he is simply the best! I would not trust anyone else with my hair!

Andrean: The Best Stylist in NYC – Everyone knows: you get what you pay for, so I am OK with the cost of Bumble cuts and here's why... After moving to NYC in 1997, I was referred by a friend to a stylist and salon which I continued to use for more than 7 years happily and loyally. The stylist was not Andrean and the salon was not Bumble & Bumble. A hair emergency arose (big job interview) four years ago and my go-to stylist was out of town. My wife suggested I try her stylist at Bumble & Bumble and I have been seeing Andrean... read more

BEST PLACE TO GET HAIRCUT – I usually have bad experiences with haircuts but i heard bumble and bumble was a good place to go. So i booked an appointment with Travis in the downtown salon.IT WAS AMAZING. He did exactly what i wanted and didn't cut all my hair off like everyone does.They are really accommodating and on time. i HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT.
