Let's be blunt but fair.
This formerly (and possibly still) terrific salon -- one of New York's true gems -- has gone through massive upheaval including ownership, management and personnel changes. Whenever this happens things change. In fact, everything changes.
I am not saying things have changed for the worse. Not at all! What I am suggesting is this:
Given all the changes the former Christopher Stanley salon has gone through in the last few months it is essentially a brand new business and ought to be patronized and reviewed as one.
That would be fair not only to current and prospective clients but also to the new identity the new salon is trying to create, separate from the old legacy business.
So tread lightly, but do tread. Go. Experiment. See what they have to offer. I plan to!
But understand that this is a completely different place than the formerly GLORIOUS Christopher Stanley Salon was, and ought not be judged based on historical reviews.
Hope I can post a five-star here in the near future.
I wish them Ceiling And Visibility Unlimited.
Rose.
