All I can say is WOW. Janet Rufin really is the best colorist in NYC - without the attitude! And the customer service is wonderful, so different from other salons I've visited in the city.\r

I went to Janet Rufin's Parlor for the first time a few weeks ago after my regular salon/stylist couldn't seem to get my blonde color right for my skin tone. I had gone from dark brunette to blonde about 6 months earlier and it was just too yellow for my taste. Janet took a lot of time to really study me and formulate a plan for both color correction and new highlights/lowlights - the end result was amazing color that perfectly suited my skin tone -- it looked completely natural and I have received a number of compliments since my appointment. Janet also made sure I had the right conditioning treatments so that when I walked out of her salon, my hair was in better shape than when I had arrived. And on top of all that, the customer service at Janet Rufin's Parlor is great. The receptionist was very friendly when I called to make a last minute appointment and, because I had to work late, Janet let me come for my color treatment an hour later than normally allowed. This meant that she and her assistant had to stay later than normal to finish. Despite the late hour, Janet (and her lovely assistant Christine) worked diligently to ensure my hair color and conditioning was done to perfection. They really went all out - even for a new client like me.\r

If you're trying to achieve the perfect hair color, look no further - Janet is a miracle-worker. In my experience, she could be charging twice her current rate. For color in New York City - expert color applied with a friendly, informative attitude - Janet Rufin's Parlor is a real bargain.
