Timothy John's Salon

07/19/2008 Posted by smplgal212

I am a very simple girl. I dont like to spend a lot of time getting ready, doing my hair, make-up, worrying about my wardrobe, i simply work too hard in a tiny little office where I hardly see anyone, so it doesnt really matter. I went to Timothy John's because of the good reviews here, and because the price seemed reasonable. Feliciano did my hair, and for the first time in my life, I felt glamorous. He gave me a beautiful haircut, but he also took the time to explain a few products, how to use them, and how to style my hair at home. All simple techniques that make my simple self look amazing with not a lot of effort. Thank you Feliciano for taking the time to really help this simple girl.

Pros: Everything was great

I have been a client of Timothy Johns Salon for about 4 years now. I am a person who loves changing my hair a lot!!! Timothy John's staff has always been great to me, they have chopped my locks off, giving me sassy cuts to even elegant more feminine looks. I have had my hair colored from black, red, deep purple, and different shades of brown, to now blonde (which I love). Every request and change I have wanted, they have accommodated and made it look fierce! I don't stick to one stylist, I tend to float around the salon to whatever stylist is available to apply my color or finish up my cut. I trust everyone that works there knowing that they are all trained and experienced with all types of hair, color, and precision styles. Over the past four years I have not only noticed my hair change but so have the stylist. I have seen many come, go, and come back again. The staff currently there I would say is the best, and the strongest I have ever seen it. They are like a little family. Which is great to see in a work place (wish my work atmosphere was like that). Before coming to TJ's, my locks were fried and broken, and even after the constant changes I demand from them, Timothy Johns Salon has somehow made my hair healthy again (recommending different products and treatments to help sustain healthy/shiny hair). Thanks guys! I get so many compliments all the time!!! Last time I was in we even chatted about putting in extensions. Timothy recommended Feliciano (whom has been cutting my hair over the past year), and I have no doubt in my mind that its going to turn out fabulous! I look forward to going into that salon, and am always greeted with a smile. Thanks Timothy John and your staff for being the best! See you soon for those extensions. :)

Pros: staff, atmosphere, affordable prices and fabulous hair!

Cons: none.

I've been seeing Elena for my hilights color and this last time was the best it's been. She also has a very comforting and calm presence. I am happy to recommend her. I am sad to see the owner speaking poorly his former staff. It might not be any of my business, but I've been attending this salon for some time and I don't ever recall anyone being negative. I think it's bad business to speak so poorly of young people who are trying to make a living and who worked hard to make money for your business. As a concerned client I would ask the owner to be careful about his own negative attitude. Otherwise, I think Elena is the best part of the salon and I hope you treat her well.

Pros: Elena for color

Cons: Negative ownership

After reading like all 160reviews or so, I decided to try Timothy John's Salon. I saw Elena for color and Dawn for my haircut. I love it. Calm atmosphere, music was fun...80's I think, and genuine nice people. Ill be back!

Pros: Great salon

I recently moved to NY from LA and was really trying to find a great salon...and I couldn't resist the amazing reviews. I was not disappointed. My haircut is perfect! Thank you so much. I plan on making many more visits to the Salon.

Pros: service and prices

Cons: stylist ran late

I checked out city search to find a new salon after my favorite stylist left Timothy John's. I've continued going still because they have my color formula but the quality just isn't the same. I noticed some people asking where the stylists have gone. I hope this doesn't receive a nasty response from the owners but if anyone knows please post it.

I am a long time client of Timothy John's Salon. I was one of the first people through the door nearly eight years ago, and have been a loyal client since. I have watched Timothy bust his tail to make his place successful, filled with amazing stylists, amazing staff, and wonderful clients. I just read the review about turnover, and can tell you that Timothy John's is better off without most of the stylists that are gone. I visit the salon every month and have had my hair touched by nearly every stylist in his salon. I am a regular, recieving hugs and kisses from everyone, except for a few( thank god they are gone)! When one of them goes, it is normally the best thing for the salon. My last two visits have been some of the best in years. The mood is light and the energy is clean of any negativity. I trust Timothy and his judgement of character, and when a stylist leaves, it has been because they were most likely unable to keep up to the high standards that has made his salon a success. I always look forward to my time at the salon, especially now that some of the negative riff raff have gone. Dont listen to the garbage talk most likley posted by angry ex-employees. Visit Timothy John's, and you will be greeted with a smile, treated like a real person, and leave looking wonderful and feeling like you have a lovely extended family.

Pros: Amazing Poeple, Amazing Talent, Amazing Friends

Looking for a great stylist in New York is hard to find, but I have found him! I got my haircut from Feliciano and he is awesome. At first they said he was a junior stylist and I was skeptical. Not anymore! The staff is great and the salon is so cute and intimate. I asked for something chic but won't make me look like I'm trying too hard or make me look older. He listened closely to what I wanted with my hair and we worked out a good compromise. He explained what he was going to do and made sure I was comfortable. Not only he gave me the best haircut I've ever had but he showed me different ways how to style it at home. Everyone is commenting on my hair! Thank you Timothy Johns for having Feliciano and I will be back!

Pros: Great stylists Affordable

Cons: NONE

I used to love to go to this salon, but since so many people have left it's just not the same. I would really like to say that it's just as great as it used to be but I suppose all things must change. Whereas I used to be gauranteed a great service, now I'm not sure how it will turn out. Sometimes good sometimes not. Unfortunately, I can't take those chances with my hair. It's been a good run.

It took me a while to get to this salon and I was so excited to get my hair done by the stylists who were recommended. But when I called I was told that none of them work there anymore. Where did their top stylists go? I relented and saw Feliciano. I was a little less than thrilled with the results. When I returned from the appointment my friends informed me that he is a junior stylist. Apparently everyone but Timothy is a junior stylist. Again, where did everyone go? And why are they passing off people with very little experience as top stylists?

Pros: close to my apartment

Cons: everything else
