Want perfect color? Book with Angela

by jh17 at Citysearch

When I moved to NYC 10 years ago, I tried all of the best salons and was glad Antonio Prieto was on my list because of their head colorist, Angela. She has been doing my blonde highlights for about 5 years now and many of my friends (blondes and brunettes) are now seeing her, too. The quality of the highlights is amazing--completely natural looking, great dimension and she really studies your coloring, hair condition and haircut to ensure that you are getting what you want. She has also helped me improve on the healthiness of my long hair by putting me on a Kerastase product and haircut regimen. The salon itself is nice, too--they've got a large staff so you can find exactly the right fit for you and your style.

• Pros: Large staff, Kerastase-awarded salon

Best color in the city!

by TepTep at Citysearch

I've been going to the salon for 4 years now and absolutely love it. I refuse to go to anyone besides Danica for a single process and highlights. Her precision is impeccable and I always walk away happy.

I highly recommend the salon and Danica!

• Pros: Friendly staff, great products, hip salon

Always a great experience

by NYUGirl at Citysearch

I have been to Antonio Prieto on numerous occasions as part of their apprentice/new talent program. I have had haircuts, single processes, and highlights, and was always very pleased. Every single stylist I've had has been attentive, meticulous, and always makes sure that I'm happy with the result. I often get compliments on how great my hair looks. Plus, with the significant discounts that are associated with this program, it is by far one of the best deals in the city. Looking forward to going back yet another time!

Jasellynne is the BEST

by sasha1313 at Citysearch

I've been going to Jasellynne, or Jay as some call her, for over a year now and every time I leave I feel like a million bucks. She cuts hair with such skill and ease that its just incredible how everything comes out! The environment of the salon is very calm and you feel pampered as soon as you step in the door. Overall, this is a WONDERFUL salon and I highly recommend Jasellynne!

• Pros: great, great, GREAT haircuts

Disappointing #2

by Diane R at Citysearch

Wow. Looks like I had a similar experience to "SwissChard" re: color. To the salon's credit, they did everything they could to rectify the situation. In fact, I appreciated how they handled the situation. I guess these things can happen, but I was very disappointed with the color unfortunately. ;(

• Pros: Great Staff, Very Friendly, Great Products
• Cons: Unexpected color, bad lighting in salon

Walk out feeling FABulous

by Kimmerg at Citysearch

I've been using the apprentice program at Antonio Prieto for a few years now and have never been let down once, no matter which colorist or stylist who has worked on me. I always walk out of there feeling FANtastic and yesterday with colorist Melissa was no different. She knew exactly what I was looking to accomplish and she delivered. I feel great.

Thanks, Melissa!

wonderful hair color for brunettes

by elizabethwnicholas at Citysearch

I had my first color appointment after moving to New York with Lindsay. I was covering up a grown out old dye job with semi-permanent dye that had left half of my hair strawberry blonde on the bottom and the top half my natural dark brunette. It was a difficult undertaking, but Lindsay gave me three washes until the color came out right, and people haven't stopped complimenting me on my hair since I left the salon. Lindsay was honest about what it would take me to get back to my natural color, and I will be more than happy to go back to the salon for the whole process!

Highly recommend!

• Pros: personable, efficient, talented

Lindsay is the best!

by NYCRED at Citysearch

I've had a consistently good experience at Antonio Prieto. My colorist, Lindsay, does a great job and is good at listening to what you want.

I have VERY THICK curly hair that can be hard to work with and they always do a great job with it at Antonio Prieto.

• Pros: Great color! Affordable price!

Great color with Jill Palmer!

by ou10schic at Citysearch

I went to Jill at the recommendation of one of my friends. Being from TX, I am very particular about the color of my blonde hair - esp since NY blonde is seriously different than TX blonde. I was very pleased with the results that I got from Jill. I will definitely go back and I would absolutely recommend her.

The price was GREAT too.

• Pros: Very good with fine, blonde hair, and for a great price.
• Cons: none
