I normally pay around that amount for a full wash, blowout, and styling, so this felt extremely overpriced and disappointing.

I had my hair done by Masaki and was extremely disappointed with both the result and the way my…read moreconcerns were handled afterward. I paid $480 for my appointment and left with hair that looked patchy and not like what we had discussed. While disappointing results can sometimes happen, what bothered me most was the complete lack of communication afterward. I reached out to Masaki on May 13 regarding my concerns and attempted to resolve the issue privately. I never received a response. It has now been about a month, and despite giving plenty of time for a reply, I have been ignored. I did not immediately leave reviews or make public comments because I wanted to give him the opportunity to address the situation directly. Unfortunately, that opportunity was never taken. For $480, I expected a higher standard of work and customer service. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend Masaki.

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.

I was really unhappy with my hair that I went to get a hair treatment (for the dry, damaged hair) and toner at a different salon a week later. That stylist even asked "who did your hair?"

I've been on a quest to find the perfect hairdresser for years, someone who truly understands my blonde hair goals while delivering natural, stunning results. After trying numerous salons in New York City, I stumbled upon Suleyman at Davida Salon and it was a game-changer. Suleyman is hands down the best hairdresser I've ever had the pleasure of visiting. His mastery of color is unparalleled, and I've finally experienced what a true balayage should look like thanks to his expertise. The teasing method he uses ensures that the color is seamlessly blended, resulting in the most natural-looking blonde I've ever had. Over the past two years, I've experimented with various shades of blonde, and Suleyman has consistently surpassed my expectations every single time. I've even attached pictures from five different visits to showcase his incredible work. But it's not just about the color - Suleyman is also a wizard with haircuts. Despite being someone who typically played it safe with my hair length, I trusted Suleyman implicitly when I decided to go for a long bob. His meticulous approach and attention to detail ensured that I felt comfortable every step of the way, and the end result was nothing short of perfection. I also have to give a shoutout to Elizabeth, who always assists during my appointments with Suleyman. Her care and gentleness during the hair washing process, especially with all the teasing involved in the balayage method, truly set the salon apart. The entire team at Davida Salon is incredibly friendly, and the salon itself is clean and inviting. 10/10 recommend Davida Salon, Suleyman, and Elizabeth. If in doubt...take this as your sign to book. read more

Today was my second visit to Davida and I am as THRILLED and GRATEFUL as I was the first time I wandered in (in a terrible panic) a few days before Christmas!!!! In December I had purchased a "deal" online with a salon on the UWS and it was beyond a nightmare. My hair was orange streaked with bleach bleeding on the top and grey/ash on the bottom after a toner was tossed on as a fix. Crying and beyond devastated I walked into Davida as they were closing. In fact they were putting their coats on to leave. They asked if 1) I had done this to my hair? 2) If I could come back in the morning? Unfortunately I was leaving on a flight home to Ohio early the next morning. They did not hesitate. Without even knowing me... they all took their coats off and said that they would stay to fix it!!!!! 3.5 hours later I walked out with a miracle. My hair was gorgeous and I received endless compliments during the holidays. I was told I looked the best that I have ever looked. Being in the Beauty Industry... that is a pretty huge compliment. Today I went back for regrowth maintenance and had a super warm welcome and same level of detail paid to the results. They were determined to make sure the color was even better (I am very blonde now but very dark naturally- not easy to get a perfect blonde). I was just going to be happy if it was the same as the first time. Ummmm WOW!!!!! It is gorgeous and again I am THRILLED and GRATEFUL... I am not exaggerating when I say that in the 2 short blocks I walked home, I had 3 people on the street and 2 in my building, pay me a compliment. How does it get better than that? I am a customer for life. Thank you! Diane read more

This was my first visit to the salon. I purchased a deal through Living Social for partial highlights, haircut, blow dry, and moroconoil conditioner treatment. I had an appointment and arrived on time, waited to be seen by the stylist for about 20 min. Finally Russel introduced himself (seemed nice) I brought a picture of what i wanted done and he advised me to color my roots first (due to my grey hair) also i had a few brassy highlights mixed with my light brown base, to fix it all Russel advised me to do half a head highlights instead of partial. Basically i had 2 people working on me,the girl who washed my hair did my roots and Russel did my highlights (took him a while) thought it would come out nice since it took so long but it came out not what i wanted. When i came home my boyfriend was shocked and pointed out that my highlights were too far from my roots (about 1/2 an inch) and the color was horrible. I was embarrassed and went to a different salon and fix it all even my haircut was uneven! I was so upset cuz my hair was so dry i have no clue what kind of conditioner treatment they used, because i didn't see any difference in my hair texture. Therefore i was afraid to do anything else to my hair and ended up coloring it one color. Also i ended up paying extra for the half head of highlights and my roots!! (that Russel suggested).Now i have to wait to get the result that i originally wanted. At the end of it all Russel asked me to write a review on yelp well this is my review. The people there were friendly but the outcome wasn't worth how much i paid! I don't recommend this place. read more

TLDR; Trust your stylist, the balayage is amazing, and Bebe rocked my hair. I am a hair color virgin and was super nervous about making a change, but I knew I wanted to do a natural-looking balayage. I perused many, many reviews for salons in the UES and Davida seemed to be the best and most consistent with balayage, with a big team of stylists that all seemed skilled. I called the desk and told them what I was looking for, and they directed me to come in for a consult (and offered a digital option if I was busy or not in the area) so that they could ensure the hair was attainable. I went in a few days later for a consult, and spoke with Bebe to make a plan of action for my color the following week. I had wanted a honey blonde balayage on my light brown hair (natural color), but Bebe felt it would be better to use a more ash toned color for my skin tone and to balance out my warm toned hair, so we got something more neutral. She was the expert, I said let's do it. The actual color and cut went for a little over 3 hours. Conversation was light, and I felt very well cared for as Bebe and her assistant (never got her name!) checked in on my hair every 10 min as it was processing and toning, talking me through each step. Final cut and style was simple and relatively quick. Overall I LOVE how my hair turned out. Great experience, transparent pricing, friendly staff. It's not cheap but you get what you pay for, and I'm thrilled. read more

Miriana is absolutely amazing. I had seen her twice before for haircuts, and during those times, we discussed the health of my hair and potential colors for my next balayage. I had been doing blonde highlights for about 2-3 years, resulting in dryness so Miriana suggested I do caramel to achieve that lightness I wanted, but without all the damage from going blonde. She was absolutely right but I completely forgot to consider how different my face would look compared to my previous blonde. At first I was... worried - but this was at NO fault of Miriana's. She told me what it would look like, but the adjustment to the color change took a minute. Regardless, Miriana stayed wonderful through it all. She took me outside to see the color in different lightings, she dried and styled the rest of my hair to better accentuate the dimensions, offered to tone it down a shade, or come back after a few washes. She made sure that I knew I had options. After she showed my hair a couple of different ways, in different lights, I realized that I loved it, and needed this change. I felt terrible because my hair was absolutely beautiful, but my initial reaction had her so concerned. She cared so much about how I felt and wanted to make sure I didn't leave the salon feeling anything less than confident or happy. She's an amazing stylist, and person, and I'd definitely return to her for future appointments. read more

I met Danielle almost ten years ago and I have not looked back. I was walking with a friend of mine and I just walked into the salon she was at (at the time) and I just wanted a regular wash and dry. I had a little longer hair then, she noticed under my hair I had broken pieces from over bleaching that my ex hair stylist did. Which by the way, wasn't growing back and my hair is very healthy and strong and usually grows very fast. She told me what they did wrong and that she would take care of me (she didn't have to obviously) let me tell you. I continued to go with her and my hair grew back. Like I mentioned before I've been going to her for almost a decade, I've made this girl dye my hair almost every color, hair cut imaginable and my hair is always healthy, and gets compliments everywhere I go and As a gay man that's the best thing ever haha. She never puts up a fight, she gives me her honest opinion as to what or how she can achieve what I ask, and she does it. She's literally a hair fairy (hence why that would be her Instagram name @hairfairydee). Not only is she magical with hair, she is a comedian, a therapist, a great friend. Plenty of times I've gone to her in the worst mood and left the happiest of happy. I really recommend her. If you want your hair done by literally the best of the best (NO LIE) go to Danielle Mizrahi. read more

Almost four years ago I stumbled into Davida Hair design by chance. That was my lucky day! I had been getting highlights since I was 15 years old in my native country but never managed to find the right color in NY....When I met Russel for the first time, I had a duck yellow kind of color, after a brief assessment he knew right away what was needed: highlights, low lights, a gloss to harmonize it all, a cut to give it the right edges... For 5 hours, he was patient, attentive to my needs, asking if I wanted to drink/eat something, bringing in magazines...but most importantly he gave me the COLOR OF MY DREAMS , the Jennifer Aniston kind of blonde :) For all the blonde women out there, I highly recommend Russel, he will give you the natural, effortless, glossy, magazine worthy, expensive-looking kind of blonde ( as opposed to the cheap yellowish/orange blonde you would get from a box or other salons). His prices are really affordable, his service is outstanding! I remained loyal to him and Davida ever since, even when I am solicited by the pamphlets guys outside of the subway or the living social/groupon deals.... I get compliments all the time about my color and I warmly recommended him to all my colleagues, friends and family members in NY....I'll be there again this Friday, looking forward to it :) read more

Magic Sleek is AMAZING. I came here several weeks ago to get Magic Sleek done by Janice and it was the best decision I have ever made for my hair. First off, Janice is extremely kind and she put in so much time and effort into my hair, which i greatly appreciated. My hair reaches passed my lower back so I know it was a lot of work, but she took her time and was so careful. Before getting the treatment done my hair took a lot of time to dry, let alone straighten. Now my hair dries PIN STRAIGHT. It is amazing. After I wash my hair I simply blow dry it and it's totally straight. On top of that, my hair has never felt softer or been more shiny. There are a few things to note. One would be that it stripped all the black hair color out, making my hair it's natural brown. I was not too upset about this considering it was time for a touch up anyways, but it is something to keep in mind. Also, there is a lot of pulling throughout the process so mentally prepare for a sore scalp. Lastly, it's a long and tedious process for those with long hair for obvious reasons. Overall, it was an excellent experience and I will definitely be returning to get my hair straightened. Janice was so so so kind and made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. Thank you ! read more

I recently discovered Davida Hair Design on a whim. I was walking in my neighborhood and I noticed a new salon. I was a little shaggy at the time so I decided to give it a try. I walked in and was immediately greeted with a friendly "Hello" I mentioned I wanted to get a cut and color and within minutes was swept away into "shampoo land" Their sinks are actually comfortable to sit at and they do a nice job shampooing and conditioning your hair; even a little head massage to go with it! After that I sat in the chair and my cut began. From the moment the clippers touched my head, I knew this cut would be different. Unlike most places that just speed plow through my hair,my stylist (and owner) Russell took prestine care as he guided his clippers around. You can tell he takes great pride in his profession. After I was cut, colored and styled I thanked Russell for a job well done and was on my way. Since my initial visit I have been here once again and my experience was just as good as the first, if not better. Russell remembered me as soon as I entered and even remembered my preferences on how I liked to cut my hair. If you find yourself on the Upper East Side and need to be spruced up, definitely check this place out. You won't be disappointed. read more

Russell did a phenomenal job with my color and cut! I had gotten a balayage years back that had really damaged my hair and I was hesitant to try again - I have really dark hair naturally and a lot of it. I felt incredibly comfortable after we had an extended consultation to make sure he understood what I was looking for and believed it could be achieved without sacrificing the health of my hair. He also recommended adding in an Olaplex treatment which I happily took him up on. As for the coloring process, he was thoughtful in his color placement and reached a really gorgeous color that didn't wash out my fair skin tone (one of my bigger concerns!) For the cut, I had gotten curtain bangs a month or two ago and they were uneven and blunt and he added the dimension I wanted and fixed the mess I had while adding really beautiful long layers through the rest. I didn't grab the name of the girl who did my wash and blow dry, but she was also phenomenal and made my hair look so full and gorgeous I wish I could have her help every morning! I would highly recommend booking with Russell to achieve the healthy color and cut you desire with genuine professional input. Thank you tons to Russell and the team at Davida Salon! read more

GUYS. I never leave Yelp reviews. Ever. After never dying my hair my whole life (yes, I was blessed as a natural blonde), I wanted to go lighter. So naturally, I grabbed a shitty box of hair dye, and made a huge mistake. Cut to the next morning - I'm frantically calling all of my friends with amazing hair asking about their salons, and one tells me about Davida, so I call. First of all, Nicole, the woman who answered the phone, was so sweet and helpful, and even had me text her photos of the damage I had done to my hair to get a better idea of how to help me (and remembered me when I came in, AND when I called back for my next appointment)! Chelly was the one who actually did my hair, and after taking almost 3 hours, not only was everything COMPLETELY fixed, but I absolutely LOVED my new platinum color, which is what I was going for in the first place! She even stayed late on a Sunday to finish what was a long process. I just wanted to say thank you so kindly to all of the staff at Davida, but Chelly - you saved me!!!! GO HERE! TRY THIS PLACE NOW! YOU WON'T REGRET IT! P.S. A glass or two of wine during the long process was an added yet unexpected bonus:) read more

This review is long overdue but I finally have the chance from my busy schedule to write it. A couple months back I had blonde hair with highlights. My hair was damaged due to the fact that the salon I previously went to did not dye my hair correctly. I wanted to go back to my natural hair color and my friends mother recommended for me to go see Russell. When I walked in the staff and environment was super friendly and relaxed. Russell listened carefully to what I wanted and within hours my hair was transformed from being dead and damaged to vibrant with volume and the color was amazing. I was also having trouble with my hair growing but ever since I started going to Davida Salon and getting my ends trimmed regularly it has grown so much and is extremely healthy. I fully trust Russell so much that I go in and just let him do his magic because I know he wouldn't let me leave without looking great and feeling confident. If you want a hair stylist that will take his time, listen, and deliver then Russell is definitely the person to go to. The salon itself is the best from the receptionist to the hair assistants, there is no better place to go to. read more

(7/10/2026) This was my first experience at Davida Salon UES ( I was recommended by a friend ) to work with Chelly. It was an easy experience to book, and clear upfront cost. The day of the appt. I was joyfully greeted upon entry, and welcomed into a light, fun, and focused environment. ** LOVE that the music if not overwhelming ** perfect volume. They washed my hair, with great care, and it was so relaxing. Chelly listened to all my ideas, and was extremely kind. My hair is pretty thick, and it was time for it's yearly "chop". Update: 1 Week Later (7/18) I returned to Davida because after working with my hair throughout the week it still felt too heavy on top, so I asked if I could come back to get some more texture/weight taken off ( summer in NYC is HOT). It was an easy appt to schedule again, and Chelly was on point, and even thanked me for coming back since the original cut needed a bit more, and it's common for individuals to either not enjoy their haircut or just not return. I HIGHLY recommend this salon, and I'm grateful for the care, and kindness they provided during this experience. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! read more

I started going to Davida NYC about a year and a half ago, after researching salons and stylists experienced with different hair types. I have long Indian hair that was seriously damaged from heat styling, and since going to Suleyman, it now feels and looks healthier than it's been in years. Honestly, it's like he worked magic on my hair! I'm also someone that wants to trust my stylist to guide me on what will look best on me, and Suleyman has completely earned that trust. I've only gotten my roots done so far, but I consistently get compliments about how great the color looks, even as it grows out. And the way he cuts and styles my hair? I walk out of the salon feeling confident every single time! My last visit was at their new salon in Union Square, and it's a VIBE! The space looks great - it's bigger and more open than the UES location - and the entire team is friendly and welcoming, from the front desk to the person prepping and washing my hair. I highly recommend the salon (both locations), and I can't say enough great things about my experience with Suleyman. He's the only person who's touched my hair since December 2024. read more

I stumbled upon Davida Salon in March while researching different salons around the city in hopes of finding the perfect place to get a balayge. I am very particular about color and hate brassy/orangey tones in my hair so I was super skeptical to try a new hair colorist. I booked my first appointment with Russell judging from the reviews and photos here on yelp. Once in the salon, I explained to him what I wanted and expressed my greatest fear - brassy hair. He gave me exactly what I wanted - a perfectly blended balayge and NO brassy tones. He was also great about explaining what he would be doing to achieve the look. I didn't notice breakage on my hair at all. I went back last week to add even more blonder pieces to my hair and this time with little direction, Russell knew exactly what to do. I love my balayge even more now. The staff is very friendly and accomodating. They work as a team to maximize their clients' experiences. I've also had Luz and Adriana work on my hair for blowouts and a keratin treatment... needless to say that they were great as well. Davida Salon is a hidden gem and I am soooo glad that I found it! read more

I went to this beauty salon because of the reviews I saw on Google, but I was surprised that the stylist I chose, whose name is Lucy, did a terrible job. I decided on this stylist after watching the video of a chocolate-colored balayage. On the day of my appointment, I spoke with Lucy. She could see and feel my hair and said she could do it as long as I trusted her words and professionalism. When Lucy finished her work, I realized that what I chose was far from the chocolate balayage selected. Disgusted, I immediately told Lucy I wasn't comfortable, which surprised me. Lucy got upset and demanded and said that it was pretty, which it wasn't. When I went to pay, I told the cashier my displeasure and my displeasure with Lucy, who affirmed and wanted me to declare that it looked pretty and that I was uncomfortable. The cashier immediately charged $500, which I refused to pay because that was not Lucy's agreement. After a long conversation, stating my rights as a consumer, they agreed that I would spend $380 for Lucy's poorly done job. I am extraordinarily dissatisfied with this place's lack of professionalism and ethics. read more

It was my first time coloring my hair and I looked at many hair salons and hairstylists before deciding to book with Davida Salon. I liked that their Instagram page has portfolio highlights for all of the stylists' work. I loved everyone's results so I didn't book my appointment with any particular stylist. Their online booking allowed me to book an appointment for any available stylist; the process was easy and convenient for me. I also appreciated all of the reminder texts and calls as I have a pretty busy schedule. When I came to the salon, I did not have to wait long for my turn. The salon is kept clean and has adequate spacing between seats. The stylists wear masks and also encourage customers to wear masks to ensure covid precautions. The staff at the salon are friendly and have good teamwork. Bianca was my hairstylist and she was very nice and professional. I explained to her that it's my first time coloring my hair and she patiently explained everything she was doing and what it means. She worked with me to get the results I wanted. She made my first time coloring my hair very enjoyable. read more

I never write reviews, but purposely signed up to yelp just to write this one to put everyone on to my new favorite salon. I couldn't be more grateful!!! Danny is one of the best colorists and stylists that I am to ever come across, and I've been through close to 100 hair dressers. I came across Davida salon after going to 2 colorists trying to do "color correction" to my hair after the first colorist (who was highly recommended to me) turned my hair from blonde, just having to do my roots, to orange. Not one colorist could fix my color. Danny not only fixed my color, but did any incredible job. I went to him twice after and am due for my color soon again. He also styled my hair, blow drying then making my whole head in beautiful curls which lasted me the whole night and for the next two days. The staff is incredibly friendly and very nice. They play great music, which is a big plus as well. They are also so attentive; asking me if I wanted water, tea, coffee, magazines, etc several times. I am so happy and lucky to have found this salon and Danny as my new hairdresser. read more

My overall experience is amazing!!! From the beginning to the end . Booking a appointment via yelp was easy, stress free. I was immediately greeted when I came in & helped out. I'm always nervous when I go to a new salon, since I usually have colored hair . I usually have to get my hair color corrected, bleached & dyed. If someone doesn't know what they're doing , they can really damage your hair . I have gone to many high end salons across nyc . I have to say hands down this salon is now my favorite. From the customer service to the artist . I was assigned to Suleyman & Rob they're so talented it's astonishing!!! I could tell that they were skilled from their technics patience & overall ethics. I have almost jet black hair and have always wanted to dye my hair silver . My hair was pretty damaged and had around 3 different colors in it . They salvaged my hair and somehow made it even more healthier .They made that possible in one sitting!!! I usually don't write reviews but I'm beyond blown away at my results. If your looking for an amazing color this is the place . read more

I very rarely write reviews but Davida is such a gem that it's worth writing a whole book of reviews! This is my second time going to Jenise for highlights and she is a god damn magician. I have very thick curly long hair and went in for full highlights. She is very diligent and took the time to highlight the entirety of my head to perfection without any complaints. I often times feel guilty going to salons because I know I have so much hair but Jenise easily puts me at ease with a can do, 'you have beautiful hair' attitude. She takes the time to listen to what her clients want while also considering skin tone, face complexion and the season. This is the second time I've gotten my hair done and the second time I've left feeling like the most beautiful girl in the world. Everyone at the salon is so nice and you can guarantee that you will leave with hair that you love. Everyone is so fun, real, and nice from the stylists to the assistants to the receptionists, there is no ego in this place, they just want to create a great atmosphere and beautiful hair. read more

This was my first time there, and I'm so glad I chose Thomas Taft. I came in on Monday (9/18/2023). During the consultation, I talked about my issues, goals, and what I wanted in my haircut. I have long 2a/2b waves and wanted fullness, encourage definition for my natural texture, and for the poorly done layers and my bangs (done by a different hair stylist) to be fixed. While keeping a long length. Before the hair cut, it was an uneven mess. The left and right sides of the "face framing" layers were clearly uneven and made it difficult to do even subtle hairstyles. My bangs were hard to manage as random, long pieces kept bothering my face, it wouldn't lay/dry as I wanted it to, and it was honestly driving me crazy. Francesca has fixed the overall shape and kept my hair long, and it's still full while also encouraging my waves to form. I've always struggled with definition, and while using the same products as usual and incorporating some advice and techniques from Francesca, I've noticed my hair cooperating with the products more, plus my waves don't fall flat as it used to. My bangs no longer have random pieces interrupting my daily life, which my eyes and selfies are thankful for. There is still some work needed to be done, as I really wanted my hair to stay long and didn't want to sacrifice most of my length. To be honest, I didn't really care for layers since the previous stylist ruined my hair because of it. Yet Francesca's work made me appreciate how it can benefit my hair. Still love the results a week later. I just wish I had come to this salon and stylist sooner. Definitely recommend :3 (I've added my after and before pictures of my hair)

I'm currently working with Alice as I get ready for my wedding in November, and she took the time to create a thoughtful plan to make sure my hair looks its absolute best -- not just for the big day, but throughout the months and events leading up!
