My hair is naturally fine, dry, and can't seem to decide whether it is wavy or straight - not exactly easy to work with. At every other salon I've been to, I ask for a cut that will work with the natural (unstyled) texture of my hair, but I always seem to end up with something that looks great blown out and crummy every other day. Karma was the first salon I have ever been to where the stylist (I had Cassie) was actually successful in giving me a cut that makes my hair seem fuller, softer, and smoother every day, regardless of how much (or little) I style it. Even two months later, the cut still looks great. And because Karma doesn't sell hair products, the product recommendations Cassie gave me weren't the $30 bottles of shampoo at the front of the store but simple, affordable products that work great for my hair. For as long as I'm in New Haven, I will definitely be sticking with Cassie at Karma.

I heard so many good things about Soho but never went until last week. My haircut is so incredible I am stopped at least twice a day by someone asking me where I got my haircut. When I go back for my next cut, I'm taking some cards to hand out to people so I'll be prepared. I LOVE MY HAIR!!
Pros: Great ambience,good music and wine and cheese on Thursday night.
Cons: None

One of the nicest things I got as an engagement present was a gift certificate for a manicure. With everyone looking at my hands, I really appreciated it - and since my friend and I both worked in Downtown New Haven, she sent me to Panache.
They're really professional, fast, and friendly enough. It was a pleasant experience, and the hand massage, always a pick me up, was particularly refreshing. I've since been in a couple of times, and while I'm not dedicated enough to call them "my" nail place (I dabble at others, particularly if I see a bargain here or there), I like them enough to buy gift certificates there for friends.
(They'll also cut your hair, but you can do better)

I went to college in New Haven and when I wanted to treat myself I went to Panache to get my hair done. For me, the price was a little higher than average, but the quality of service and outcome of my haircut was definitely worth it. I never had to make a reservation, but did usually have to wait a couple of hours for my appointment when I called to schedule one that day. There are two Panache salons in New Haven. Either one is good, although I went more to the one on Chapel St.

I have been to this hospital many times. It is easy to find. The people who work there are outstanding. It is very clean and the children's hospital is a one of a kind. I've been to other hospital in Connecticut but this one I think is the nicest one you could go to.

Studio Zee is the best tattoo shop in New Haven for someone considering their first tattoo or a tattoo that needs a lot of detail. Studio zee is extremely clean. They won't let you eat or smoke in there. You can pick a tattoo off the wall or have Zee himself draw you an original. Prices are not too bad. You can also get a piercing or just stay for the hang. Almost a mixed crowd inside. Plan to make multiple visits to this class act tattoo parlor.

With New Haven comes the hustle-and-bustle of a large city. Yale Hospital is no different.
Granted, they are at the cutting edge of technology. They seem to have a great staff of knowledgable Doctors and Physicians. However, you won't get too much of a personalized treatment here.
The hospital is large and confusing and although accomodating, it's overwhelming. The staff is pleasant, but you can tell they are overworked. Having to visit the hospital several times, staff hasn't always been receptive towards me asking for directions or being pleasant.
Bottom line is that it's a great health care facility. It's not a smaller "hospital" but a large "business" being run, not to make friends.
Parking is ample, but very scattered throughout the complex. It's very difficult to navigate between their buildings.

Whether it is the musky old chairs or the very experienced hands of Phil's barbers that make this place so special, is a constant matter of debate among the clientele. What is certain is that Phil's, located right next to another New Haven staples, Naples PIzza, is a classic place for the boys and men of the Blue to stop in and get their hair cut. The service is reminiscent of old movies, with some barbers eschewing scissors and cutting hair with old-fashioned razors, instead. While this may sound dangerous, it is not in the least so when it is done by people as experienced as the barbers at Phil's. And besides, it is much better for the hair.
If you need to have your hair cut in New Haven, this is the place to go. The one drawback is that hairstyles verge towards the conservative.
