    Balayage and trim
    Christine C.

    I found Davida Salon and the talented stylist Miriana recently and she is AMAZING! Since going to her, my hair has never been healthier and has never looked this good. She is a fantastic balayage artist and I'm so happy I found her. She always delivers the best results and I always trust that she will do a fantastic job. Would highly recommend!

    - Still Obsessed After 8 Years! Okay, listen up, people--if you haven't gotten your hair done at Davida's Salon with Melba yet, WHAT are you even doing with your life?! I've been coming here for over 8 yrs and Melba has NEVER disappointed. I'm talking about flawless balayage, cut, blow dry, and the curls that make me feel like I just stepped off a runway. ‍ Every time I leave, I feel like I just walked out of a shampoo commercial. Seriously, if you want hair that gets compliments from strangers this is the place. Melba listens to exactly what I want, and then somehow pulls off the impossible--transforming my hair into something that always looks better than I imagined. And the best part? It's like hanging out with your best friend while you're getting your hair done. Melba's energy is top-tier--chill, friendly, funny, and always full of great convo. You leave feeling refreshed not just because of your hair, but because of the entire experience. I'm pretty sure I could go in with a mop on my head and Melba would work some magic to make it look amazing. If you haven't booked your appointment yet, go ahead, treat yourself. You deserve it. Trust me, you'll be hooked. Also, if you haven't booked in advance, you might be waiting a bit...but it's SO worth it.

    Gabby did a great job fixing up my hair! I had a grown out balayage and was looking to transition to a rich brown for the fall season. I appreciate that she listened to what I wanted while also offering her own professional advice. I asked for a layered haircut and blowout, and she gave me exactly what I was envisioning. Will definitely be coming back and booking with her again!

    Rue gave me the exact color and cut I asked for! Will 100% be coming back she's amazing!! Highly recommend :)

    I'm OBSESSEDDDD with my balayage! Miriana is such a gem of a person and the most talented hairdresser ive had I literally waited until she got back from maternity leave to get my hair done. And I'll just keep coming back she's so patient and kind and worked her magic to give me an even better look than I was envisioning!!!

    Suzana is the best! She has done my babylights twice now and they grew out beautifully in the 6 months between coloring. When I was in last week she listened to exactly what I wanted to change from the first session and gave me exactly what I needed. I ended up getting engaged the day after the session and am so happy that I had been in the day before! She is also so kind and funny 10/10.

    Rue did such an amazing job on my balayage last week! She really paid attention to the details and listened to exactly what I wanted. I showed her a photo from this salons instagram of the look/color I was going for, and she matched it perfectly. She recommended that I should blend everything (my dark roots) with a root melt (extra 55) and it made such a difference! The color flows so seamlessly and nothing looks too harsh or jarring, especially since I wanted to go as light as possible without the upkeep or maintenance of doing a full head bleach. Rue and her team were super gentle the whole time, especially during the bleaching and wash. When they brushed my hair out, I barely felt anything. I've had appointments at other places where it was painful getting my hair brushed after shampooing, but this was the opposite. I really love the money pieces she did, and the way she toned and styled everything. I have more hair than she expected so we ended up going over time, but she still made it work. She gave me her full attention throughout the 5+ hour appointment. She cared about making sure everything was right. I had mentioned my side bangs and the specific way I wanted my hair to be cut early on, and she remembered and made sure to cut my hair exactly how I like it! I also reached out to Rue on instagram with a couple of questions afterwards, and she responded to my DM and helped me out. It felt like the appointment didn't just end when I left the salon. You can tell she's really dedicated to her work and to making sure her clients are happy.

    I came to Maria at West Vibe Salon because I wanted to go lighter, but I was honestly afraid of…read moredamaging my hair. I have seen too many blonde transformations turn yellow, orange, dry, or uneven after only a few washes. I also did not want obvious striped highlights or a harsh root line that would require constant appointments. Maria understood exactly what I was worried about. She created a soft, dimensional blonde that gave me brightness without making my hair look overprocessed. The highlights blend beautifully with my natural color, and the placement looks seamless rather than chunky or artificial. The biggest difference was how healthy my hair felt afterward. My hair was still soft, shiny, and easy to manage--not dry, brittle, or rough. The blonde tone looked clean and balanced without being too warm, too ashy, or disconnected from my skin tone. Maria also thought about how the color would grow out. I did not want to feel forced to return every few weeks because of an obvious line at the roots. She created a lived-in blonde with a softer grow-out, so the result feels realistic for my lifestyle and not unnecessarily high-maintenance. She also explained how to prevent brassiness, protect my blonde between appointments, and avoid the products and habits that can make lightened hair feel dry or cause the toner to fade too quickly. I highly recommend Maria to anyone looking for a blonde specialist in NYC who genuinely understands healthy blonde hair. Whether you are considering blonde balayage, dimensional highlights, a brunette-to-blonde transformation, or a low-maintenance lived-in blonde, she knows how to create brightness without sacrificing the integrity of the hair.

    I was highly recommended to see Maria at West Vibe Salon for a complete hair color transformation,…read moreand I am so happy that I trusted her--especially because I wanted to celebrate my graduation with a completely new look.I brought several inspiration photos to my consultation, including balayage, highlights, lived-in color, and dimensional brunette looks. Maria did not rush me or simply agree with everything I showed her. She carefully explained the pros and cons of every option, why certain colors or placements would not work for my hair, and what the realistic maintenance would be.What impressed me most was how detailed and honest her consultation was. Maria asked about my lifestyle, how often I wash and style my hair, the products I use, and how frequently I could realistically return to the salon. She even taught me how to wash and care for my hair properly at home. Because I wanted something beautiful but low-maintenance, Maria recommended avoiding chunky highlights or color that started directly at the roots and would eventually create a harsh demarcation line. Instead, she created a seamless, natural, lived-in hair color that will grow out softly and continue looking beautiful as it gradually fades. She also selected a tone that would stay rich and dimensional without becoming overly brassy or forcing me to return to the salon constantly.The final result was even better than I imagined. My hair feels incredibly soft, healthy, shiny, and not damaged. The color completely brightened my complexion and made my skin look like it was glowing--even though I was not wearing makeup that day. Maria chose the perfect tonality for my skin tone and natural features.Maria is more than an amazing NYC hair colorist. She genuinely cares about the health of the hair and creates results that look beautiful not only when you leave the salon, but also weeks and months later as the color washes and grows out. Her honesty, knowledge, and attention to detail are what stood out to me the most. She is not afraid to tell you when a certain color will not work for your hair, your lifestyle, or your long-term goals.I highly recommend Maria and West Vibe Salon in Hell's Kitchen to anyone looking for balayage, dimensional highlights, lived-in hair color, rich brunette tones, low-maintenance color, or a personalized hair color transformation in New York City. I am so grateful my friend recommended her. The entire experience was thoughtful, professional, and completely worth it.

Appointments became rushed, started late, and lacked even basic professionalism. You're barely greeted when you walk in, and the overall tone makes it feel like you're inconveniencing them just by being there. I told them multiple times I had a head injury from a concussion and the lack of care was very concerning how abrasively they washed and handled my head. My most recent appointment was a complete failure. I asked for a warm, golden brown and came prepared with multiple reference photos. While the color was processing, I clearly flagged that it was pulling purple. That concern was dismissed, and the product was left on longer. The result was the darkest my hair has ever been, almost black with a cool, purple hue. The exact opposite of what I requested. The color job is all mismatched, the lower part of my hair significantly darker, the roots are sloppy and uneven. When I pointed this out, the response was defensive and dismissive. At one point, I was sarcastically asked if I wanted to "bleach it," which is an inappropriate and careless suggestion for already fine hair. It was mind blowing to have this handled so poorly and then be rushed through a cut that does not look anywhere close to the quality of the past cuts. I followed up requesting a refund, given that this will take months to correct and fade, and received no response for over 48 hours. It's not even about the money - it's about the severe lack of respect. What's most surprising is that this level of defensiveness and lack of accountability was unacceptable, especially after such a grave mistake. Instead of thoughtful adjustment and ownership, the response was dismissive in the moment and silent afterward. Mistakes happen. How they're handled is what defines a business. This was not handled well. NYC has no shortage of salons that can deliver both technical skill and professionalism. This is not one of them. Updating this with a pic and additional NYC HAIR SALON SEO terms so future customers are warned since the salon has decided to block me after no satisfactory resolution. The pic at the top right was me pre-hair f*** up. Only come to this salon if you'd like to come home and cry.

And what a fortunate thing I was, because I have now found my new go to person for all hair related needs. I highly recommend Ai for your stylist. Her attention to detail is superb and it is apparent she is a perfectionist as she even requested to trim my eyebrows to balance the cut against face shape. Reference this review and request her honest consultation for your intended style before getting a cut; I can almost guarantee you will be amazed by the end result. However, what ultimately made me leave a review was what Ai did NOT do. It was the fact that she advised me NOT to get a perm that day.

My hairdresser was wonderful. Great shampooing job and she was very precise and careful when cutting. Also good at communicating and making sure I was happy with the cut. My haircut was $65, but be warned: if you do the "haircut and blow dry" it's $130. To be honest I don't even know what that means because she dried my hair... with a blow dryer... I guess she didn't style it? But anyways, if you're just looking for a basic cut make sure to communicate that so you don't accidentally double the cost of your haircut. The interior was super clean and everyone there was very friendly. The woman working the front offered me water, tea, or coffee when I arrived and hung my coat in the back.

    I came in for a trim, and discussed with my hair stylist that I wanted to mostly keep my length and…read morethe long layers. Before starting, we both agreed that the length was good (she'd just trim split ends) and that she'd reduce the layers I already had. She ended up cutting a lot more than we agreed, and I have lots of layers (more than before, that feel a little choppy). This isn't what I asked for at all, and I'm especially unhappy because we agreed on what to do before, and I mentioned I have a family wedding coming up and I wanted to make sure my hair is what I wanted leading up to it.
