Miwa-Alex-Nathalie – I have been going to Nathalie for 10 years. She is wonderful at transforming thick unruly wavy hair into a fashionable haircut. However for the last 2 years I have wanted a change and grew my hair out to a longer length. I loved it-the versatility, the curls. It was romantic and classic. A few days ago I went for a trim and walked out with a whacked out, wigged out piecey mop. If you are a downtown girl and like a haircut that looks like your hair was electricuted then she is the stylist for you. If you ... read more

Miwa-Alex - Regina – Regina is an artist at heart but what makes her such a great stylist is her ability to listen and create a look that meets your lifestyle! I didn't want a cut that would take me an hour every morning to style and she really listened! I've received so many compliments on my new cut. I have thick curly hair that I wear curly on humid/wet days and blow it out on others - Regina understands both. She also takes the time to show you how to achieve the best blowout yourself and has even drawn me a picture so I... read more

Friendly, comfortable and excellent service – From the big windows in THE BACK (where you actually get to enjoy it) to the option to lay down while getting your hair washed, Miwa-Alex is just the most comfortable, easy place to have your hair done. And Stanely, is, without a doubt, the best. He knows how to make you look good, so just let him do it.

Miwa.Alex Salon (Peter The Great !) – Have you ever looked at yourself and said that you needed a subtle change without too much risk? I'm a little nervous about hair color changes but Peter was heaven sent. My niece has this gorgeous reddish blond hair with natural highlights. I learned that the highlights were painted on by Peter not Mother Nature. So..in my 6o's, I finally took the plunge and my hair is now just the perfect auburn shade with hints of the sun. I love it and as others have said, we all love Peter. I highly ... read more

Miwa-Alex Salon Nathalie – I read reviews here and was looking for a great haircut. I made an appt. with Nathalie and can honestly say it was the worst haircut I have ever gotten. She did everything I asked her not to do. My hair was cut in the early spring, it is now mid-Sept. and it is finally long enough to go and get my first hair cut to fix it. I too have coarse thick hair and they way she cut into it to thin it out, only made it extremely frizzy in the humid weather. I have never written a review before, but needed to ... read more

MIWA-ALEX SALON NATHALIE – I have been going to Nathalie for more than 10 years. Before Nathalie I thought I had problem hair, coarse, thick, unruly with a mind of it's own. Under Nathalie's wonderful hands and discerning eyes I have a chic haircut with enviable waves. Yes, people have stopped me in the street to compliment my hair!

Peter Ripley is the World's Best Colorist! – Peter is never on auto pilot. When you sit in his chair (and he makes you feel like it is a throne), he takes a good long look. He takes tremendous pride in his work and he makes sure that his clients are comfortable. He really is an artist (though, not a diva) and has inspired me to take chances that I have not had the confidence to do with other colorists. He is also great company: funny and informed about the world. I always, always look forward to spending time with him. Miwa ... read more

I Love the way Peter Ripley makes me BEAUTIFUL! – I found Peter through a friend who's hair I had admired for years... I really don't know why it took me so long to finally go to have him FIX my yellow hair. Now, for the past year, I actually get comments on how beautiful my color is whereas before I heard nothing. I look like the natural blond I was born to be and I have nothing but a wonderful time at this lovely little salon. Peter is a joyful, happy, loving person who actually listens to what I want - and doesn't take 3 ... read more

Rozanne Has Colored and Nathalie Has Cut for 15 Years – I have been a client for about 15 years, so it probably isn't necessary to say more, but I will. I was walking down 22nd St. one day about 15 years ago wondering what to do about my greying hair when I spotted this salon (then the Brian Pickston Hair Spa). I stopped in and asked to speak to a colorist, who turned out to be Rozanne. Rozanne made a lot of sense, so I signed up to have her do my color and she has been doing my blond color/highlights ever since. When I sign... read more
