Do not appreciate their longtime clients. Unfriendly and unappreciative attitude towards longtime clients - I have been a client since 2002 or 2003. Never going back!

Tamara is Amazing!!!!. Tamara styled my sister, my mom, my niece, and my hair this past Saturday for my sister's wedding. She is AMAZING!!!!!!! If you want a look that highlights your features and your personality, Tamara is the woman to see. Her eye for shape, texture, and balance is impeccable. Her range of skill is vast. She executed a modern sexy updo for me with perfection, not to mention my sister's timeless look, and my niece's tween style. She was even able to style my mom's short hair to give it a modern edge. My sister and I will always use Tamara for all future events.

Best Hair Salon!. Spressa is amazing! She does great things to my hair and I always leave with a smile on my face. I have had other people there do my highlights, styling, and trims and they always do a great job. Everyone there is very sweet, even when they are really busy. I wouldn't go anywhere else. Hands down, Damian West is the BEST.

New York's Best Hair Salon.
I love this salon. I found it through friends 7 years ago and am completely devoted.
Their commitment to quality, both in terms of service and products (Davines line), is first-class. The staff is friendly, professional and very knowledgeable (and I ask a lot of questions). Not only that, the ambiance is beautiful, super comfie and refreshingly low-key. Not sure what I'd do without Spresa & Tamara!

Have been coming here for years, love it!. I used to live across the street and now live in the 90s and have been coming here since they openned years ago. I use Brian for cut AND color and could not be happier. The place is in a cool west village townhouse and you feel like you are in a really nice apartment - they even have a garden. Everyone is super friendly and not snobby. The prices are very reasonable for the top service. Brian has always given me perfect color and great cuts and I've never left unhappy...enough so to travel 90s blocks! Love it.

Lovely salon, in a lovely location. I really enjoyed my fist visit to Damien West Salon. I saw Spresa for a blow dry and she was very efficient and professional. I had a relaxing shampoo with a relaxing short scalp massage while the condioner was sinking into my hair. The Blow itself was very natural looking and the products used smelled great. I will certainly go back.

Amazing Stylists at this West Village Salon. If you live in or around the West Village, this is a salon you absolutely have to visit. The stylists are extremely professional and enjoyable and the ambiance beautiful and relaxing. Damian West was highly recommended to me by a friend so I decided to give it a try. I had heard great things about their extensions services and was very delighted with the outcome. They gave me a whole different look and feel and my hair looks better than ever. If you're looking for a new salon, Damian West is definitely the place to go.

Amazing cut and color!!!!. My color is perfect! I can't get over that my stray grays are gone yet my shade is exactly my natural shade. Well, it's my shade but much healthier and shinier. Every minute here was perfect: I felt taken care of by the attentive, charming, and very down-to-earth staff and the ample daylight in the salon kept me relaxed -- it's really such a gorgeous space. I found my new salon.
