I have been going to Astor Place for about 30 years off and on. Unlike most little kids, my son loved getting his hair cut when he was small because the place is fascinating and the people you can see there are amazing. A few years ago after having my hair destroyed by a salon in NJ and trying to fix it myself I decided to go back to Astor Place. That's when I found Fran. She is a real keeper....a treasure. I had difficult, thick, curly, dryed out hair. I told her to cut it all off. Fran worked her magic and I have never had so many compliments on a haircut and styling. She is a wonder with color, as well. Not only don't you spend a fortune, but when Fran cuts your hair it is such a good cut you don't have to go as often to have it reshaped. Three months later and I am still getting compliments on my cut despite needing a trim. I'm calling Fran today. If you want the best cut and style ever -- go see Fran. She's the BEST!!
Pros: Fran knows how to work with all kinds of hair!!!
Cons: No drawbacks if you don't mind climbing a flight of stairs.
