A Delightful Find!

by Aakanksha Gulati

I've gotten japanese straightening done 3 times before and was looking for a new place in the city about a month ago. I went and met with 3-4 technicians at different salons and finally decided to go ahead with Tim at Roy Michaals Salon. I was very happy and satisfied with the results. This was the best one of the 4 times I've gotten this process done. I am extremely picky and particular about what I want and Tim was not only knowledgeable and careful, but also made sure he gave me exactly what I wanted.

Pros: great service, experienced staff, attention to detail
Cons: not cheap

Very talented, friendly staff

by Arelle

Dawn is a terrific colorist who has always done the best job on my hair. This is the friendlest salon in town, and the clientele is understandably very loyal. There is no "attitude" and everyone's hair looks great. Fair prices, too.

Pros: Great colorist, lovely garden
Cons: none

Outstanding cut and color in a wonderful atmosphere

by Flourisher

Everytime I walk in, I feel like Iam back with friends. I've come to expect that I will look years youngeer when I leave, but I always marvel at how valued I feel by coming in; the specail home-made treats; and the lovely garden is a wonderful place to sit back and enjoy. Roy and Bill have created a wonderful 'family' atmosphere in the heart of the City .

Pros: The superb cut and color in the friendliest atmosphere
Cons: NONE

The best hair salon!

by Betsys

This is a great salon and I have been following Roy and Dawn as they moved from other locations (two others actually) to the current location. I always feel as though they strive to make my hair look its best . . the staff is wonderful and professional. On the day of my son's bar mitzvah, they were able to accomodate not only me for a pre-service blow out but also to take of my two young daughters. We all looked great. Oh, with regard to the creepy elevator ...they also help me with that and let me go up the back stairs! Since they are only on the second floor, it is no big deal and they don't make me feel crazy about it! A great salon!

Pros: Fabulous Work
Cons: Creepy elevator!
