  1. was a little nervous to try ANOTHER new hair salon, after 2 or 3 bad haircuts at various (overpriced) salons in the CIty I finally found PANYC on citysearch and after reading all the rave reviews I knew it was a place I had to try.
  2. This is because they work hard, know the business, make good business decisions and choose to provide great service at prices clients can afford, instead of trying to "wow" their clientele with a lot of idiotic extras (i.e. a cheap glasses of wine, live p
  3. The prices were very reasonable and I didn't get any of that snooty attitude so many ny salons have.
  4. left with another PERFECT haircut at a price that you can't beat in NYC.
  5. used to get my hair cut at Frederic Fekkai which became so pricey that eventually I had to switch to a less expensive salon.
  6. It can be tough to find a good haircut at a reasonable price in NYC.
  7. Cuts and styles out of this world, professional and precise, great atmosphere but not over priced.
  8. Its a really reasonable place price wise and the staff was incredibly nice.
  9. She comes trotting up with blown out feathery blond short hair a huge smile and she starts examining my treacherous locks with a look of intention.
  10. No fake names, no funky outfits, no ridiculous prices and no drama.
  11. couldn't believe the price for such a great haircut, service, and nice people.
  12. Everyone is friendly and the prices are great.
  13. think that the prices are "good" compared to upscale NYC salons, but poor considering that the place is about the size of my bedroom and doesn't have hot water.
  14. The cut was 60 and the color (very full head of highlights) was 160, great prices for Manhattan!
  15. Finding a good hair Salon for a decent price and without bitchy and arrongant stylist is pretty hard in New York.
  16. Great price with a great stylist!
  17. huge thank you to Mary Lou(colorist extraordinaire),Chris-scissorhands miller(super talented and passionate about hair), Paulie,- the owner with the most skills- or is that skillz:-) and everyone else in the salon, including the super friendly recepti
  18. If you are willing to pay above $60 for a cut, but still aren't sold on the super expensive salons, then this is the best place to go!
  19. The prices here are very reasonable, for very top quality services.
  20. Best stylist at a reasonable price.
  21. usually am always weary about trying a new hairstylist for fear that I'll walk out with an overpriced haircut that looks nothing like what I wanted.
  22. Great cuts, good prices!
  23. and the price (shampoo, cut and blodry) was affordable.
  24. Great haircuts for a ridiculous price; complete attention and wonderful staff

JC!

by nickles81 at Citysearch

Great Stylist! I'm so happy to finally have someone I can trust and that does not need much direction. When you leave a Salon you want to look great and feel every dollar you spent was worth it. I not only felt great but looked it too! ALL I WANT TO SAY IS THANK YOU JC!

Wont go anywhere else

by sales711 at Citysearch

I have been going to Panyc for years, following them from location to location... and now loving the new spot on 17th. In a non-descript typical Flatiron building, a stark yet comfortable salon awaits, you wouldnt know it as you take a tiny dingy elevator up. The staff is so accomodating, and all I can say is JC is AMAZING! I have had nightmares occur when I've needed to get a touch up for an upcoming event and pop into a salon that will take a walk-in, or when bridemaids hair goes horribly WRONG! I always run back to JC who manages to fix me right up! I cant say enough about these guys!!

PAULINE = My favorite colorist EVER!

by ElissaKJ at Citysearch

PAULINE is a senior colorist at PANYC and she does an amazing job! I live in the area and have been bouncing around from salon to salon; never really finding the right colorist...until now. I walked past PANYC several times and finally decided to give it a try. I chose PAULINE because she is a senior colorist and her prices are a bit lower than the master level. The consulation was top notch and the end result even better. She is such a sweet girl and really knows what she's doing. You can tell she's got lots of experience. I'VE FINALLY FOUND THE ONE!!!

Really great find

by MaddieNYU at Citysearch

I'm from Seattle and have just these past two months started living in NYC. Haircuts are my one big splurge, even in my home town I'd pay 60$ for a cut and 120$ for a color! so I was hoping to find a least similar prices in New York.

I found Panyc on Citysearch and called to see when they had an opening. He first offered a SAME DAY CUT for 90$, and when I asked if there was anything cheaper he offered a same day 75$ FOR A CUT. Perfect.

I headed over the slightly SKETCHY neighborhood and even more sketchy building where you have to ring up to have them let you in and then take a 3x3 foot elevator ride up to the fifth floor.

However as soon as I got up into the salon my confidence was restored. It's big and open, with lots of light and sparse, but eclectic decor.

There WEREN'T THAT MANY PEOPLE around, probably because it was a Wednesday afternoon, but the staff welcomed me right in.

I had a really relaxing shampoo and SIMON took me to the chair promptly at 4. What a sweet guy! He was really ATTENTIVE to what I asked for. I WANTED TO TAKE OFF A GOOD SIX INCHES so he really coached me through it and all the changes that might occur to my hair. He started snipping and after about 15 minutes I FELL ASLEEP! He didn't wake me up, he simply cradled my head and proceeded to give me great haircut. When I woke up he had very timidly took off length and said that if I decided I wanted it shorter later in the week I could get a trim for free. He's great and really gentle. I think I will go back and get it a little shorter, mainly just to hang out at the salon a little more! With a generous tip for Simon and the shampoo girl my total came to 95$.

Ignore the bad reviews, this place is great.

  • Pros: Super friendly and sweet staff, same day appointment
  • Cons: Very creppy elevator ride and a little pricey
