YUVAL - my amazing stylist is now at Janet Rufin's Parlor 8/24/2009

My most beloved stylist/colorist Yuval (formally at XacAnthony Salon & Spa), just started working at Janet Rufin's Parlor and I am THRILLED!! Yuval is by far the best stylist I have ever met, his colors/cuts/highlights are superb and he can do everything from funky and bold to classy and upscale. I have been going to Yuval for over 5 years now and I am excited he found this warm, inviting space for himself to work. The place is cute, attitude-free and there's a nice back yard to relax in :-) I highly recommend Yuval for anything you need, his technique and skill level are beyond what you would expext, he listens to you, understands your needs, and gives you a hair style that is unique for you, for your overall style, your everyday life and needs. And believe it or not, he has no ounce of attitude. Yuval is truly as creative as they ever come!!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YUVAL AND I LOVE THIS SALON, you really can't go wrong!!! Pros: GREAT HAIR (color/ Highlights / cuts) & zero attitude! more

Very accomodating 7/27/2009

I went in to get highlights by an apprentice who never showed up, but they called ahead and let me know and re-scheduled my appointment. While getting my color done, they were able to accomodate a last-minute, un-scheduled haircut with Eugene, who is very meticulous and did a great job reshaping a previously bad haircut. Pros: Accomodating, skilled staff, good customer service Cons: Expensive more

Sal: Even Better Than Masako! 7/14/2009

I recently underwent Japanese hair straightening/thermal reconditioning with Sal from Janet Rufin's Parlor. This was not the first time I had undergone this process, but it was the first time I had it done by anyone other than Masako (formerly of the same salon). At first I was nervous about going to someone new, but I'm absolutely THRILLED with the results -- Sal's knowledge, experience, and attention to detail are unparalleled. Although I have undergone Japanese hair straightening for the past 7 years, Sal's results were the best I've ever had. My hair is, of course, straight, but it's also lustrous, soft, and in great condition. Simply put, Sal is a master! more

A great place! 7/3/2009

Janet Rufin's Parlor displays both a classy and professional environment. Their staff is extremely friendly and inviting. I had my first haircut there with their newest stylist- Jennifer King. She's excellent at what she does with a lot of professional experience. She knows how to take what you're thinking for a style and interpret it into a work of art w/ your hair! -A true artist!! I'll definitely be returning and recommend everyone to go there! Ask for Jennifer! Pros: They definitely know what they're doing! more

Worst haircut of my life 6/20/2009

Some time ago I had Damian cut my hair and it was hands down the worst hair cut of my life!!! On the website it said that he does editorial work and has worked with quite a few celebrities so I was excited to work with him. I had the highest hopes. But boy was I dissapointed!! I told him what I wanted, he seemed like he understood but when it was done my hair was ruined. While he was cutting he seemed very scatter brained and nervous. He wouldn't stop talking the entire time about I don't know what?? He just went on and on changing subjects without finishing a cohesive sentence. This is probably what happens when he is cutting. He gave me something totally different than what I asked for. Do not have this man cut your hair!!! He is awful!!!! Those poor models!!! They must hate him!!!! more

Nice Eyebrow Shaping 6/17/2009

I went to see Elke today to have my eyebrows shaped. Elke made me feel completely comfortable. She is very personable and informative regarding my eyebrows. After a completely painless tweezing/shaping, Elke showed me how to use brow makeup. She did one eyebrow and then let me try the other. My brows finally look good. I will definately go back. The only downside was that I could not purchase any brow makeup at the salon, it has to be ordered through Elke's website. Other than that, I was very happy with the results Pros: Nice, Friendly Salon Cons: A little on the pricey side more

Pros: nice staff Cons: dye job...not so great more

I guess it's not a secret, but this place is great! 4/10/2009

I came here for the first time last year after years of searching this city for the perfect hairstylist. I was thrilled to find John -- he gave me such an amazing cut. He patiently took his time cutting my thick, wavy hair into an amazing short style with bangs. Best part was that it all grew out into an amazing long style which I've had ever since. I also really liked the laid-back atmosphere here -- the whole staff is friendly and attentive. So, stop your search, this place is the best. Pros: Talented staff; great space. more

Best Color and Cut Duo!!! 3/1/2009

My hair was a mess and I had a difficult time explaining what I wanted. Karen and Veronica listened to everything I said. Karen gave me the most perfect blonde highlights I have ever had, and Veronica's hair cut is the best I've ever had!!! \r \r The down side was the salon was dark and the receptionist was rude. The owners dog was running around and actually went in my purse and ate my gum. Still, my hair was the best ever so I was going to go back...\r \r I called to make an appointment and was told Karen and Veronica were no longer there. I was given a number to reach Karen and found out they were 4 blocks away at Christopher Stanley Salon! \r \r It was like night and day. The salon is bright and inviting. The staff is friendly and professional! I'm so glad to have found my girls here!!! Pros: Karen and Veronica at Christopher Stanley Salon Cons: rude staff, a dog running around! more

Best, most natural highlights- perfectly blended as grows out 2/25/2009

I have been going to Janet for 2 years now, after many years of hopping around through colorists who left me too light, too brassy, too red... Janet gives me natural, gorgeous highlights that grow out perfectly every time. She has an eye for what would best complement and enhance your individual look and coloring. The salon itself is peaceful and relaxed with a family-like atmosphere, taking you out of the NYC chaos for a bit. Janet is absolutely the best. Pros: Expertise with color, calm atmosphere, friendly staff Cons: At times, I've gotten a sub-par blow-out after getting my highlights done more

great corrective color, personal service 12/10/2008

I had a hair emergency - bad, overdone highlights - and needed a gentle but effective corrective color. I made an appointment after researching on City Search. When I arrived at the salon, there was a computer glitch or something and they couldn't find my info. It appeared that no one was available, but Janet said she would take care of me herself. We had a thorough consultation and she worked her magic. I would give five stars, but as a college student the price was a bit steep for me - she did several processes and so of course it was more than usual. She reassured me that the next visits would take less processing, and I'm sticking with them. Thanks Janet! I received all kinds of compliments on the shine and color of my hair - Pros: Great service, friendly staff, nice atmosphere, friendly dog. more

I love Janet Rufin's Parlor! 11/5/2008

When I started gong to Janet Rufin's Parlor, I was immediately impressed by the friendliness and professionalism of the staff. They go out of their way to make their customers feel welcome! Stacey Smoker is a talented stylist and colorist. She listened to what I was looking for and made some suggestions as to what color/cut would work with my features. As a result, I have beautiful haircolor and highlights. When she cut's my hair, it looks great even after 8 weeks! I would highly recommend Janet Rufin's parlor! Pros: Great atmospher, talented stylists and colorists more

Amazing Haircolorist! 10/30/2008

I decided to go see Karen after reading so many positive reviews about her online. My hair was bleached blonde and I needed to have it dyed very dark brown, so I knew I needed a real pro. When I got to the salon, the staff was sooo friendly, offering water and such, and Karen was so sweet. She really listened to all my concerns and was honest with me about all the processes it would take to make such a transformation in color. It took a while, but when she was finished the color was STUNNING and glossy and I could not have been happier. I cannot say enough good things about Karen's skills. Highly highly recommended salon. Pros: Friendly staff, beautiful salon, fantastic colorists more

Excellent color and style 10/7/2008

I went here after reading the reviews, and was not disappointed. I have been going to the same colorist for years, but lately my hair has been looking a bit dry and the color seemed a bit too brassy the last few times I had it done. When I came to Janet Rufin, I explained all this to the colorist, Stacy. She asked lots of good questions - including how long my old colorist kept the dye/color on my ends. She explained that I needed more of an ash tone to match my eyebrows. The color came out great- and I was complimented by many people at work. My hair also felt softer, and lasted longer than my old color. While this place is more expensive than my old colorist, I think it is totally worth it, and have booked another appointment. Nice, clean salon and friendly staff, too. Pros: Thumbs up! more

Great Highlights 9/5/2008

I went to Janet Rufin's Parlor for the first time recently and was very pleased. It is a small, intimate space compared to some of the larger salons I have been to in the past. Everyone makes you feel comfortable and at right at home. Stacy gave me great blonde highlights and gave me a lot of personal attention. I never felt ignored or rushed. I will definitely go back! more
