Great service, great hairstyle!

by JulieRysdale at Citysearch

I was really impressed with this salon. Andrew was great in creating the perfect updo for my wedding. I was visiting from Australia and being married in New York. On the day of the wedding, I showed Andrew some pics of the style I wanted and he transformed my hair into exactly what I wanted, efficiently and without fuss. I really appreciated his professional manner, and was really happy with the whole experience. Everyone loved my hair too which was great!

I highly recommend this hair salon!

This is by far the BEST hair salon in Downtown Manhattan!!

by Jovi821 at Citysearch

Nelly is a very sweet, nice and welcoming lady; she makes you feel at home from the moment you arrive.

I personally LOVE a particular hair professional from this salon, his name is Enrique.

I was introduced to Enrique last summer. When I meet Enrique, my hair was very damaged and short.

I can honestly say Enrique was my God’s gift…why? Not only did he make me feel extremely welcome, he said to me “don’t worry you will have your hair back” and boy did he keep his promise. By December my hair was showing a tremendous improvement, now my hair is healthier, stronger and shiner than ever and I have Enrique to thank for this improvement. If you are ever in the area call them and check him out and tell him to apply his amazing conditioner same is prepared by him. God knows what it has in it but it transformers the hair overnight!! Once my coworkers started seeing how much my hair improved they have checked him out and they all feel the same way. I tell him he has magic hands and we all agree.

This hair salon provides you with excellent customer service, good prices and excellent results.

  • Pros: Good Prices
  • Cons: Not open on Saturdays!

Excellent Spot

by Jibis at Citysearch

I have gone to Nelly's at least ten times over the last 3-4 years. She is an amazing and kind woman, who is always a pleasure to deal with. The staff is accommodating and patient, with none of the high end-salon attitude. (Even though its high-end service in an upscale area.) Great location, except for parking access, near major train lines and businesses, and excellent service. I highly recommend Nelly's salon to everyone I know in NYC.

*One of Nelly's employees - Pilar, does great work!

  • Pros: Great service, good prices, NO attitude.
  • Cons: No weekend hours.

Best Salon Downtown!

by LisaGlick at Citysearch

I have been going to Nelly's since 2002. I had a regular salon in the WTC, but after 9/11 had to find another salon. I worked across the street from Nelly's and went in for a haircut, and loved it. The atmosphere is very friendly. I now go for cut and color and would not go anywhere else. I now work out on Long Island, and still only go to Nelly's in Manhattan. Anyone who is in the Financial District or in Battery Park should certainly make Nelly's their salon.

  • Pros: Atmoshpere, price

Ol' Reliable

by ChorkiesUnited at Citysearch

I have found it difficult to find a place that consistently gets my haircut the way that I like it, that was until I found Nellys. After some misadventures with other area stylists I tried Nellys on chance and havent looked back for over 2 years. I always leave happy and the price is exactly right; I don?t have a lot of hair so for me to pay more than $20 for a haircut is excessive. I have recommended other gentlemen coworkers to Nellys and everyone has left happy. I wholeheartedly recommend this salon.

  • Pros: Great prices, good availability
