LACEY!!!!! If you read this, pls contact me

by JAGC

I miss Lacey!

I began going to her every 8-10 weeks a year ago. She listens to your demands, gives suggestions when unsure. If you give her a picture of the style you want, she will replicate it. She's by far the best hair stylist I've had and not sure where she went.

Not so great...

by kt6377

So this is the third time in 6 years I've tried this place. The first two times were for facials which were OK...this time I went for a hair cut. Not so great.

I asked for a senior stylist because I have coarse curly hair that is hard to style and I'm not sure I got one. There are a few of things you don't do with curly hair...1) wash it before you talk to the client 2)cut it wet 3)cut it with a razor 4)add product when it's almost dry. All of these things were done to my hair. I was asked to wash my hair before anyone had even looked at...how are you supposed to know what my hair looks like dry? It shortens 3 inches after it dries! Then immediately it was hacked into with a razor...now all I fell at the back of my head is fuzz. Then a bunch of product was added when my hair was alomst dry...my hair was tousled on top of my head (no styling) and I walked out looking like a mop.

On top of all this I had to listen to the stylist bad mouth thier previous clients. One girl's appointment was messed up and she was upset...but they were blaming it on her and not even trying to accomidate her. The other girl wasn't told how much a blow-out was and she was a little upset...but it was her problem as well. I work in customer service and understand that clients can sometimes aggrivate you, but you don't bad mouth them in front of other clients. Very unprofessional.

Ay least I didn't pay $80 for a bad hair cut...because now I'm going to have to pay to get it fixed.

Seriously...if your curly don't go there. Pay the extra for a DevaCurl expert somewhere else.

• Pros: good product selection
• Cons: really bad customer service

Rudi is the best of the best.

by Doreida

I've been to the best places in the city searching for a colorist and have spent so much time and money trying to get the right color for my hair. And now I have found it.Rudi gave me the color of my dream and I fell in love with my hair color and style. I've finally found a hairdresser who's experienced , professional and kind. My hair looks amazing, and I've gotten so many compliments. I will definitely recommend Rudi and Space Salon to all I know. It is worth it. Thank you Rudi! You are the best of the best.

• Pros: Happy with everything:)

RUDI IS FABULOUS !

by VEE

I'm very hard to work on since my meds really mess up my hair color-RUDI did foils that blended in all the different colors I have and it looks awesome !!! I was watching all the workers there and they all do great work.

What I didn't like was that I didn't get to see what exactly I was being charged for and I have a major problem with that. I think I was also charged for a consultation for a facial (which I did not do., how much do they charge for consultations anyway?)and not wanting to be rude cause a customer kept talking to the receptionist I just paid the bill and left. Truth be told I'm so happy with my experience-it was worth lots more. Cost me $141 and some change.

I would suggest this place to anyone. I for one will make sure to see the breakdown of charges I'm billed for next time. Rudi is a 10 star on a rating of 1 to 5. I rated 4 star only because I didn't see the bill and that was not her fault-the receptionist grabbed it fast.

• Pros: GREAT CUT, STYLE AND FOILS (HIGHLIGHTS)
• Cons: DON'T APPRECIATE PAYING A BILL I CAN'T VIEW

beware!!!!!!!!

by Shantall

i went there to work one day and didnt bother to go the next day. From a different perspective i dint go to get my hair done (never will) i applied there and had to turn them down. the people there are rude, except for two stlylist that looked and acted profesional, but the rest their clients would leave and right away you heard the comments they made reffering to thier clients. it was disgusting!!!! I WOULDNT RECOMMEND THIS SALON TO ANY PERSON IN THEIR RIGHT MIND.

• Pros: some what clean, train nearby

Great place to get your hair done!!

by AngieM1

I am so glad to have "finally" found a great stylist! Stella was great! She knew eactly what to do with my hair. Two thumbs up to Space Salon! Keep up the good work guys!

• Pros: Professional, friendly and great at what they do!

Stella is by far the BEST HAIR STYLIST I have ever had!!!

by breyes025

Stella is one of the hairstylists at SPAce whom I have known for years and she never fails to amaze me with her talent as an artist...what I mean by that is simply she has an eye for what will be best suitable for her clients...She has been the only hairstylist whom I've grown to trust with my hair and I have never told her what to do I simply allow her to "FREELANCE" on my hair...now how many hair stylists can you say that about? Not many!! I have recommended her to people and they were also pleased with the results. I will say this much she is WORTH EVERY PENNY you will not be disappointed and once you walk out of SPAce heads will turn and you will receive several compliments, as I have experienced. If you want a HOT yet ELEGANT look and be in the latest fashion that will have heads turning she's the hairstylist to go to...she will know exactly what color and cut will best suit your features!!

• Pros: A SKILLED ARTIST WITH A GIFT AND EYE FOR PERFECTION
• Cons: Parking

CHRISTINE IS WORTH THE COMMUTE!!!!

by dispoto2

I've lived in NYC for 15 years, and have had my hair cut and styled all over the city at top salons, including Bumble & Bumble, Kiara, and others. I moved to Astoria and thought I'd try SPAce. Let me tell you, this salon and CHRISTINE are as good as it gets. I've left so many other places dissappointed for having a cut that isn't great or not quite what I wanted, or technically sub-par...However, Christine gave me a GREAT cut, and invaluable haircare tips that I still use to this day that no one else has ever give to me. AND I got all this for 38 bucks. THIRTY EIGHT BUCKS. UNREAL. Fast forward a few months later --I now live back in Manhattan, and I had my bangs trimmed at an upscale midtown Manhattan salon about 30 minutes ago, and I am so angry with myself I didn't wait to go to Christine at SPAce when I had the time. This Manhattan stylist did such a HACK JOB and I paid so much more $ for this amateurish trim than SPAce would have charged. I am really angry with myself I didn't just deal with the Astoria commute and get it done RIGHT for half the PRICE. Bottom line? Whether you live in Queens or any another borough, SPAce and Christine are WORTH the trip. Christine I will be back to see you soon!

• Pros: Fantastic stylists, friendly staff, inexpensive
• Cons: It's in Astoria
