Most of the time I have felt that there is a disconnect between what I am envisioning and what the colorist interprets, resulting in corrections. Not this time! I read reviews of this salon on citysearch and booked my appointment with Mayra. I was not disappointed. She is amazing. She looked at my eye color and complexion and figured out what hair color would look best. I was pleased beyond words. She has extensive experience and she is very professional and pleasant. I know that I will be coming back to this salon to see her!
Pros: Mayra

When a best friend of mine told me that I needed to search the city for an expert "blonding" salon because my hair had no shine and the color was dead--- I researched the web and found Oleg Kaz. After reading all the reviews I made an appt. with Myra and I got the best color ever! When I lived in CT I went to salons that thrive on the many blondes living in Westport, and their constant need of highlights, however I never got these kind of results and the treatment there, that I got at Oleg Kaz.The experience was above and beyond. Myra knew exactly what she was doing. She paid careful attention to my skin coloring and chose shades of highlights that brought out the gold in my brown eyes. She is extremely professional and very warm and friendly at the same time. I really felt that I was in good hands and I couldn't be more satisfied with the results. My hair looks amazing.She brought it back to life. It moved and it had shine and it was the perfect blonde for me. Everyone is commenting on my hair and I couldn't be happier. So glad I picked you.

I only joined citysearch because Oleg said they were registered here and I want to tell everyone how amazing he is!
I have had my naturally medium blonde hair butchered so many times with color I have stopped counting. I didn't have an appointment, I just walked in because I had just had my color completely ruined by another hair salon. I was in a state and just asked the first person I saw (Oleg) what he could do with THIS (pointing at my hair). He smiled and said no problem, I will take care of that myself.
My hair was black with red underneath and he turned it into a lovely coppery blonde as a transition and now I went back after my hair grew for a few weeks (8 to be exact) and I said do whatever you want. I now have an even more gorgeous honey blonde. I was so happy I had to hug Oleg! Don't let his height or Russian straightforwardness scare you, he is a teddy bear. A teddy bear with a natural eye for color.
I have finally found my colorist and I'm not going anywhere else, ever again.
Pros: Oleg
Cons: The noise level (the staff is very chatty with each other)

It is very difficult to find a colorist who can give you an exceptional color that really works for YOU. I found Oleg Kaz Salon here on CitySearch, trusted their reviews, and had Agata give me highlights that suited me 100%. It was better than I dared to hope for. The soft, sandy high and low lights are perfect for the summer. Olga cut my hair after, her hair cut speaks for itself, it moves, it flows and it?s a great style. I am so excited that I finally found two truly creative and talented hair designers.......
Pros: Best Service, best styles, best everything
Cons: i wish i had more then one had to get my hair done on

Oleg Kaz has been coloring and highlighting/lowlighting my curly hair for over 8 years! I first discovered this master of hair color in his former salon on Fashion Avenue. I can honestly say that Oleg changed my life! Do you know how difficult it is to make highlighted curls look natural? Well he does it with ease. Oleg's eye for color is amazing...he is truly an artist. I can't begin to list how many compliments on my haircolor that I've received throughout the years.
I look forward to my visits to Oleg Kaz Salon! In fact, I travel from NJ every 8 weeks religiously. I would never be able to afford to visit most of the other NY salons this frequently, but Oleg's prices have always been very reasonable. I wouldn't dream of going anywhere else. If you haven't already booked an appointment, you are truly missing out on chic European salon experience!

Ruth Madoff isn?t the only one with stale hair color these days. I can tell that some of my friends have been scrimping on their hair color too. Thank goodness I haven?t had to experience that. Sure, my household has been affected circumstance lately, like everybody?s I guess. But I am fortunate that Mayra from Oleg Kaz Salon has been coloring my hair for the past 4 years. Not only is Mayra?s color service impeccable, but the price of the services at Oleg Kaz is really a bargain, especially compared to the prices at the east side salons. I have never had a hair colorist like Mayra. She produces the same precise effect consistently, time and again. The consistency of Mayra?s work is unmatched in my experience. I have recommended Mayra to several of my friends, and each friend has been as delighted with her services as I continue to be. As an added benefit, when Mayra colors my hair, I also feel spiritually uplifted, like I?ve been touched by a healer. When it?s all said and done, I look like a million, and that makes me feel like a million. I don?t hesitate for one second to recommend Mayra?s color service to anyone. That?s why I?m not surprised to see my east side friends heading over to the west side to have Mayra work her magic with their hair color too.
Pros: CONSISTENT COLOR TIME AND AGAIN

This was my first time in the salon and I will definitely be going back again and again! Mayra is fantastic. she helped me decide what kind of color would be best for my hair. I needed something low maintenance and semi-permanent. No roots! She was thoughtful and listened to my concerns-I've never had professional coloring done before! It was a great experience and I highly recommend Mayra to anyone looking for a talented colorist.
Pros: Mayra

I cant believe it. I just had my hair cut and it is exactly what I didnt want. I stopped by as a walk-in, mostly based on the positive reviews I saw on this very site. I told the girl cutting my hair that my last haircut was very short and I wanted to leave it as long as possible- but also give it a little style. My hair is now soooo short! I couldnt believe it. I started crying in front of everyone. Okay maybe this was the misunderstanding of one stylist- but still, even though everyone was watching- no manager or senior staff offered help or even a tissue. I still paid in full and left- still crying. Very disappointing. Lesson learned, only go to placed based on recommendations from a person you know- not a website- I think many reviews could be by the staff/owner themselves.

I had been going to the same hairdresser for 13 years: during his good and bad days, in his upper west side salon and then to his new salon in Astoria. After three horrific final cuts and highlights, I finally gathered the strength to find a new stylist. Everyone recommended to me were way too expensive and I finally gave up enough to just try the place around the corner from me, even without a recommendation. Surprise, it was amazing! Mayra is a godsend! She's fun and professional and made sense out of the mess that had been previously made to my hair. Her color was incredible too (the neatest foild I have ever seen). I've been back 3 or 4 times since (and am scheduling another appointment now), and she has been consistently fabulous.
Pros: Great cut, color and service; relaxed atmosphere; not too pricey
Cons: none

I started going to Oleg Kaz a couple of years ago and am absolutely in love with this place. All the hair stylists are really skilled at what they do, and always wear a smile on their faces. Agatha and Oleg are great with colors, and I love how Olga blowdries my hair, and the women who wash my hair are fabulous too. But I do not hesitate to use the other stylists - they are uniformly good with my hair. When I enter the salon, everyone recognizes and greets me, but they also recognize not to bother me if I appear busy with my Blackberry! Oleg knows to put the Food Channel on for me when I sit down, as I sip their wonderful lemon-infused water. And all this great service won't leave a huge hole in your pocket either. I do hope they stay this good.
Pros: Great service, great value, fairly easy to get an appointment
Cons: None
