for problem hair, go to them! – Like so many other satisfied reviewers here, I too highly recommed this salon for their staff's genuine hospitality towards every client and the skill the stylists have. If you are like me, who have gone to diff. salons in and out of NYC trying to find a good colorist and someone who doesn't cringe when they have to work on your difficult hair, then save yourself some grief and call This salon for an appt. I have seen Leslie since my first trip there and have never been disappointed. Why? beca... read more

My first time = pampered like a goddess – As soon as I stepped in, the people were so nice and very helpful. I originally had really long, straight asian hair and I was looking for a funkier shorter hair cut. My appointment was scheduled with LESLIE, and oh my god is she AMAZING!!! I showed her a picture of what I wanted, and she gave me some feedback on what she would do with my hair from then on. I first had a shampoo by a sweetheart who was absolutely fantastic. It lasted 15-20 minutes (longer than the average shampoo ser... read more

Great Salon on 5th Ave near the Empire State Bldg....A London Tourists Opinion – I visited this salon on a visit from London. I made a great choice. Leslie was my stylist and did a great job on my full head highlights and cut & hair dry. My hair looks great! Leslie was very accomodating and offered great advise on what would look best, she even offered to tone down the colour if I felt it was too light. The salon itself is calming and all staff were friendly, chatty and seemed happy to be there! I will definately recommend t... read more

Best Color EVER! – Ask for Carlos! He is absolutely fantastic and the only stylist who has ever been able to tame my wicked strands! I have never liked my color after having it dyed but Carlos was able to give me exactly what I wanted! The staff is unbelievably nice and prices are spectacular for the amount of work Carlos put into my hair! I would have paid double, even triple for the services anywhere else. It was an absolutely fantastic experience and I would highly recommend it to anyone who was tired of paying too much a... read more

LIKE NO OTHER, A MUST GO – Sooo, I am 23yrs old, from the Bronx and had been going to the same hair dresser as my mom since I was 15. As of late my now old hairdresser had fallen into this pit of wanting to do my hair the way she wanted to do it and the more I tried explaining what I wanted, the more she didn't cater to what my hair needed and that was some TLC. First I did a general Google search for curly hair experts (FYI:I have extremely curly, thick and at the time long hair). I come from a Puerto Rican background so we... read more

THIS IS THE PLACE TO GO....... NO OTHER SALON CAN TOP IT!! – I wanted to get my hair done for my 21st birthday. I was seaching around salon after salon to really get someone that understood what i wanted and also someone that knew how to deal with my hair. When I walked in I met Leslie and can I tell u her hands, well they're magic. She's the perfect person. Tell her what you wanted and she can make it happen. Now my hair is EXTREEMLY curly and frizzy and hard to manage. I mean I cant lie I wasn't too sure if she could deal ... read more

The real thing -- Curly or straight - This is THE place to go. – I had a complete makeover at Santa Cruz salon just last week. Leslie, the stylist, was terrific and very skilled. She had great ideas and extensive knowledge on color, texture and maintenance. I had visited the salon for an initial consultation and met her during this. It was NOT conducted in a rush, but rather in a relaxed manner and she really listened to the concerns I had (I.e., long hair to shorter length, the maintenance of the cut, color and highlights, ... read more

Katya Rocks – After a horrendous high end 5th ave salon disaster cut from my long brown hair into a "Posh like" cut in November, I went looking for a new hairdresser. I was so depressed as my hair looked horrible with many noticable holes and chunks of hair just missing from my head as the last hair stylist went crazy with the razor and had made some serious mistakes. I walked into Santa Cruz and met Katya and she made me feel pretty and styish again. Shaping my mess was not an easy task and she has worked with me over the p... read more

Great short haircut – I've gotten my short hair cut there a few times now, and Leslie did a great job, really cute and choppy. The salon is also very nice, and they give you tea while you wait. Although it is expensive, I definately recommend it.
