DO YOU WANT ALL YOUR HAIR WISHES TO COME TRUE? GABRIEL IS THE GENIE TO GRANT IT!! WHILE HE JOKINGLY WILL TELL YOU THAT HIS COMB IS NOT A MAGIC WAND-I BEG TO DIFFER- HE GAVE ME A MAGAZINE STYLE HAIRCUT THAT MADE ME FEEL LIKE A COVERGIRL FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE. NOW I WAITED TO WRITE THIS REVIEW TO SEE IF IT WAS A FLUKE BUT AFTER 3 CUTS HE HAS CONFIRMED HIS TRUE WIZARD STATUS! THE FIRST TIME I HEARD ABOUT GABRIEL, WAS WHEN I WAS LUCKY TO BE BACKSTAGE AT A BON JOVI CONCERT. THERE WAS THIS GIRL THERE WITH HAIR THAT I WAS COVETING. MY BOYFRIEND, AN ACTOR, KNEW HER AS A WARDROBE STYLIST FOR THE S@X IN THE CITY MOVIE. HE INTRODUCED US AND I RAVED ABOUT HER CUT. SHE TOLD ME THAT HAD DISCOVERED GABRIEL ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO FROM OTHER FASHION STYLISTS IN THE CITY. SHE SAID THAT ALTHOUGH HE WAS TALL, DARK AND MORE THAN HANDSOME, HE WAS THE GREATEST HAIRSTYLIST THAT SHE HAD BEEN TO. THE FOLLOWING WEEK I PHONED AND MADE AN APPOINTMENT. . AFTER HIS ASSISTANT SAT ME IN HIS CHAIR, GABRIEL APPEARED AND MY HEART SKIPPED A BEAT. THIS GUY WAS GORGEOUS AND A ROCKER!!!! WE CONSULTED ABOUT WHAT I WANTED- WHICH I REALLY DIDN’T KNOW SINCE I WAS IN A REAL HAIRSTYLE SLUMP-GABRIEL HAD SUCH GREAT ENERGY AND PUT ME AT EASE THAT I WAS CONFIDENT IN LETTING HIM DO WHAT HE SUGGESTED. 45 MINUTES LATER I FELT REBORN. MY NEW HAIR WAS EDGY BUT NOT CRAZY, GLAM BUT DOABLE BY SOMEONE WHO DOESN’T HAVE TREMENDOUS PATIENCE IN THE MORNING. HOWEVER, FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE I WAS A KID, I NOW HAD BANGS. I ASKED HIM HOW TO CUT THEM WHEN THEY GOT TOO LONG AND GABRIEL TOLD ME THAT WHENEVER I NEEDED THEM TRIMMED IN BETWEEN CUTS, JUST CALL AND HE WOULD DO IT FOR FREE. WHAT A SWEETHEART!! TRUE TO HIS WORD, HE HAS AND HE HAS NEVER MADE ME FEEL LIKE IT WAS AN IMPOSITION. I LOVE THE TIME I SPEND WITH HIM (I ENVY HIS GIRLFRIEND) BUT EVEN MORE I ADORE THE WAY MY HAIR LOOKS. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND MAKE YOUR OWN WISHES COME TRUE- GO TO GABRIEL.

Pros: gabriel's skill patience talent

Cons: none

Today, I had the best haircut of my life. I’ve serviced many top salons in the city and most of the time, walked out disappointed. Johnny changed all that. Firstly, a comment about the dry cut experience – it’s off the hook! It was my first time getting one and I loved it! Johnny explained the principle to me before he started cutting and put me at ease. I showed him a picture of the cut I wanted and explained to him that I loved the cut and wanted my hair to someone resemble it - he did one better – I actually liked it better than the picture when I left. Johnny clearly explained that the cut is was matters throughout the experience not having you leave with a style you can’t recreate the next day– and what an amazing experience it was to see my hair transform into something edgy, precise, and exactly what I wanted. A bit about Johnny – he is truly an artist. Many stylist call themselves artists but Johnny emanates it. He is totally edgy and funky and looks like a rock star in appearance but yet down to earth and connects with you immediately when talking about your hair. You can see how seriously he takes you as a client and becomes absorbed in his work as an artist when cutting your hair. Don’t care about the cost when considering. It’s the best investment you can make for yourself. I’m lined up for highlights next week. A comment about that as well – Santino- another amazing artist (check him out on their website)– was kind enough to test a piece of my hair to make sure I liked it before my upcoming appointment. I was blown away by that. Having the attention of 4 people over a test highlight made me feel like a rock star too! Santino showed genuine interest making sure I will be happy with my highlights! The salon is truly an experience and it was fun as well. Thanks Johnny! You rock!

Pros: Beautiful salon, and Johnny!

Cons: not finding this salon sooner
