Astor Place Hair has been around for ages and you can see a real cross section of New Yorkers when you go there. I have had my hair colored and highlighted in many upscale salons in New York paying premium prices for adequate services. Lucia was recommended to me for color and I have been going to her for two years. She has an amazing eye and my highlights are perfect. Do you really need that free glass of wine or would you rather save your money and get great color for half the price? Book early since she only works one day a week and bring a book.
Pros: great color, affordable
Cons: long waiting period, no frills atmosphere
