I love this salon! Everyone who works there is so sweet. My stylist, Juliana, helped me decide on what color would work best for me. I love how it turned out! The owner, Staci, cut my hair and she also did a great job. I live out of state but I can’t wait to go back! They also have cute accessories and gifts.Services: Blowouts

Very satisfied with my experience at Mark's place in East Village. I had been growing my hair out for some time and needed to keep it healthy. Mark delivered and it looks much better than before. He was a pleasure to talk to. 100% recommend!Service: Haircut

Mark the owner gave my partner an amazing cut, color and blowout. Since we had to wait for the color he put me in his chair and cut and gave me a scalp treatment that literally made me feel like a weight was taken off my shoulders. WOW THUMBS UP New Yorkers go see this man.. Thank You we'll be back!!!!Services: Hairstyling

What I said in my previous review was true - Mark is incredibly talented and he's always been great at color. However, I can't let my positive review from years ago stand when I've stopped going to him. The last time he did my color, I asked him if I should have something more substantial under my gown as to not damage my clothes. He told me it should be fine. My sweater was then dyed a deep purple/blue. I expressed how upset I was about this, and he started screaming at me that I shouldn't have worn that sweater, and how little he already makes off of each client. I told him that he should be replacing my sweater, but he just kept screaming about how terrible his personal life is. Despite this, I paid him his full plus a 20% tip and left. He later texted me with the Beatles "let it be" apologizing for his behavior. I told him it's okay and to hang in there, since I was being sympathetic to everything going on in his personal life, but I vowed to never go back. A few days later, he randomly texted me two random photos of ugly sweaters as a "joke" (presumably trying to clear the air / break the ice), but the damage was done. For those of you thinking, it was a one time thing and it happens to the best of us, this incident only brought out some of the things that had continued to bother me about his behavior since my original review. These things bothered me and kept chipping away, until this incident: 1. There were multiple instances where he would complain about a client not leaving "enough tip" -- I would be annoyed too, but it's not professional to say that to another client 2. Basically solicits tip (which I would give anyway) by saying how much he's spent on these color materials and that the amount he's charging and tip is "barely enough" to cover cost of materials 3. Constantly complaining about money in general 4. Would give attitude if I didn't feel fully satisfied with something and expressed it -- to his credit, he did make it right eventually each time, but would give me a really hard time about it I think with this particular incident and everything in between, he just made me so uncomfortable that as much as I loved his color job, it wasn't worth it anymore. I wish him well.

CHEMICAL BURNS, BALD SPOTS, PAIN, MALPRACTICE. Mark chemically burned my entire head after telling me to "straighten my hair" after haircut, Didn't even know what that meant (he didn't explain it to me even when I asked him a bunch of questions also didn't even tell me how much it was) Malpractice, charged me up the a** after injuring me.

I thought I would give this salon a chance since my colorist moved back to Europe during Covid...Best of Westchester recommendation, what could go wrong? I wanted my blonde highlights back, that's all. It's not rocket science...right off the bat my stylist Juliana decided I should get balayage instead because of my grey roots. She applied an overly dark brown color on the roots and a nice blonde on the rest. $300 later I basically ended up looking like I am in need of new highlights, lol. She also "forgot" to remove the dark brown stain from my forehead that took me two days to get rid of. This never happened before, in 20 years of many salons in NYC and Westchester. I had to go straight to Demirjian to correct the color and get highlights. Ladies, don't take your chances!

I never gave anyone a bad review however this time I feel like I have to. If -0 stars was available that's what I would've given Mark( the business owner). I thought I would give him a shot since my hair stylist was on vacation for a week and I was desperate to get my roots touched up before my vacation. After a phone consultation Mark told me he will charge me $250 for partial highlights. The next day I was in his salon, he was running late with a client so I patiently waited about 45 minutes. Once I was in his chair we talked about what he thought I should have done. He told me that for $350 he will also trim my hair. I agreed and went on with the process. The color was good, although he didn't even touch the hair line behind my head but the cut was what really did it. It was the worst cut I've ever got in my life and I will also post the pictures to prove it. I didn't realize what a bad job he did until a few days later after I washed my hair and blow dried it straight. When I contacted him with my concern he told me that every artist has bad days. Not acceptable for the amount of money and tip hungry as well. I WILL NOT RECOMMEND MARK TO MY WORST ENEMY!!

I had my hair cut by Mark yesterday and will never go anywhere else for salon service! He gave me an amazing cut and I have gotten so many compliments. I've never felt so amazing walking out of a salon. On top of it the atmosphere is very groovy and the decor is interesting. Plus mark is a really cool guy.

Awesome place! I walked by this place a few times in my neighborhood and decided to go here on impulse yesterday, and I'm so glad I did! The shop looked like a nice edgy place where I could get a razor haircut and fix up my platinum blonde hair, and it was exactly that. After 3 years of being a platinum blonde with long hair, my hair had seen better days. I was worried that it wouldn't be able to handle any more treatment, so I had been growing out the roots for a few months and it was turning yellow. I thought I might have to go completely brown, but Mark jumped in and saved the day. He treated my hair with Oloplex and added low lights to give my hair time to heal. It looked totally natural and healthy after! The hair cut was also great. I wanted something cool with a bit of a punk edge, but still professional for work, and I totally left feeling like a rock star! I couldn't be happier, and I'm someone who is never satisfied after a new haircut! It was worth every penny.

I am always a little nervous about trying new things with my hair but wanted something different. I trusted Mark's vision and talented hands and am super happy with the results. He gave my dark brown hair some lovely painted blond pieces, and I have gotten a ton of compliments. He's made me more adventurous and I may even go a little lighter next time! =)

Mark has always been a genius with my color, but he recently convinced me to try the keratin treatment when I cut my bangs, to make it easier to style. I am super lazy about my hair and so it has been amazing. I don't have to do much and my hair always looks more styled...and I think it's even stronger. Thanks, Mark!
