Where to start? They destroyed my hair and when I called about a refund yelled at me and called me "not nice." Preface: have never asked for a refund before. I was painfully polite through the entire thing. I have naturally light blonde hair that I had dyed medium brown. When my roots started growing in I went to images for a color correction so things could grow out looking more natural. The stylist said she would dye my hair blonde over the color instead of stripping it I've colored my hair maybe twice before so trusted her- I didn't know better. She said she would do a test strand but then didn't. when I realized that, it was too late. It looked like candy corn. Yellow orange and white at the roots. People in the salon looked appalled. I agreed to pay $50 extra for a full head of highlights to fix it. The stylist MIXED AND APPLIED THE WRONG STUFF and foiled my whole head with something that pulled a lot of hair out but was apparently conditioner. Then she had to re-foil my head with actual highlights. At this point we're four hours in and she blow dries and I leave and I'm thrilled to not look like a candy corn. But I get home and am appalled. I see friends and they're like "it's kind of like a highlighter." The worst part was when I called I was yelled at. They offered to fix it but after they messed up the correction and the highlights I didn't trust them to touch my hair. I was so polite. I appreciated that my stylist, despite messing up, was kind. But she also spent the whole appointment talking about the times she'd dyed hair green by accident etc. the manager refused to let me speak, she called me "not nice" "mean" and "rude" when I never raised my voice. She admitted they put the wrong mix in my hair for an hour but said it wasn't a mistake (huh?) promised to call me back after speaking to the owner and never did. I wish I could give zero stars. And by the way, I went to a nicer salon and they fixed it beautifully- so it's not like it couldn't be done. read more

Image Unisex & Spa Salon - I couldn't bring myself to wear it down it was so bright yellow w orange streaks but here's one photo - Hair Salons Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

See all

Bern going there since they were on Remain. Consistent job. Not big on banter. Most there are not fluent English. Primarily Russian Get haircut and pedicure as a self indulgent. Love it. Lunch at diner 100 feet away. A good lunch time haircut by the courts. read more

Last Wednesday Night - I "stumbled" upon this little gem in the heart of "Brooklyn Heights" - Folks were very pleasant and polite. You get what you pay for. Great in telling conversation; I enjoyed spending time here. They gave me a great manicure. Would definitely make the walk and but again. Would consider getting my hair done and washed. But, things could ease by expensive. read more

Had a fantastic pedicure with Natalie on Saturday. Will definitely be going back. Took a full 45+ minutes, just to let everyone know. Not really sure whats up with the birds though. I kept hearing like wings flapping and chirping and shit like in the back of the salon. Bizarre. read more

Had bought an Amazon deal for a Brazilian wax, it was a terrible experience. I would recommend not going there for waxing services. Worst experience ever, and I've tried so many other places which are much better. The lady was not gentle at all, it was unhygienic, she was downright mean and it hurt like hell. I definitely wouldn't recommend going there if you are sensitive or not used to waxing. read more

Maya is excellent, I HIGHLY recommend. I walked into the salon in desperate need of a haircut - my shoulder length blonde hair was looking bushy and dry. Maya cut off inches of my hair and gave me a modern bob in a non-angled, youthfully blunt way and I received a compliment from a stranger the next day on it. Maya is experienced, opinionated in a welcome and good way, and overall the prices at this charming neighborhood salon can't be beat. I'm moving out of Brooklyn but I'll still come back to Maya for my haircuts! I don't trust many stylists when I want short hair cuts because I've received dramatic shags and dated-looking angling in the past. Maya made me look young and on trend without even meeting me before the day I walked in! read more

I have been going to Image Salon for many years as I used to work in the area but currently relocated and work in Manhattan. I have tried numerous salons around my new place of employment and none of them compare to Image. I missed the professionalism, cleanliness, charm, and skill of the salon and crew at Image. I came back and the commute is so worth it for me! My haircuts, color, and blowouts are always flawless. My mani-pedis are amazing as they have always been and my lavendar waxes are oh so pain free! Image is small and charming and always immaculate; all the utensils are sterilized, the waxing sticks are not double dipped and the products and nail colors are always the best on the market. I love that the appointments are always on time and they are so accommodating in making them. It's a no stress environment with excellent results Highly recommended!! read more

I came into this salon in January after purchasing an AmazonLocal deal for a Brazilian wax. Right off the bat, when I arrived I discovered there'd been a miscommunication about the appointment time. I'm willing to take responsibility for that based on the fact that I'd had trouble understanding the woman on the phone because of her thick accent, but they graciously agreed to see me when I arrived despite the misunderstanding. At the time, I didn't realize there was only one esthetician working, or that she'd asked their other customer to wait while she took care of me in the back room. This came to a head forty minutes later when the other customer left in tears because she'd run out of time and had to go pay her babysitter. I felt awful, obviously, which wasn't aided by the fact that the woman waxing me yelled that it was *my* fault and ended the session despite the fact that I still had quite a few stray hairs. Some people might pay extra to get yelled at by a middle-aged Russian woman while their pants are off, but that wasn't the service I was looking for. (I go to Craigslist for that.) As for the waxing process itself, this was my first and only time so far, so I don't have much to judge it against. I thought it was a little odd that the woman working stepped outside after asking me to remove my bottoms but left the door wide open. She did the same after we were done, only closing it when she was in the room. Thankfully, the salon was empty, but without taking the time to figure out the latch on the sliding door I would've had to awkwardly hunch behind the table to hide myself from view. Which I did anyway, of course. When we got started I mentioned that it was my first time, but that didn't stop her from repeatedly(!) passive-aggressively mentioning that if I'd been waxing EVERY month, it would've been a lot easier for us. Hey, I gotta start somewhere, lady. There was a bit of a language barrier, which got in the way of what I wanted (I ended up with the wrong shape) and how to position my body (this was VERY frustrating to her) but a seasoned veteran probably wouldn't have those same issues. It was painful, yes, and I was left with a few red bumps and stray hairs, yes, but the internet has told me that's not unusual the first time. The whole process seemed hygienic; there was no double-dipping and the woman wore gloves the entire time. They do take cards, but if you're paying with a voucher make sure to bring cash for the tip or you'll get stuck with the ATM fees at the market next door. This problem is probably specific to me, but I'm mentioning it in case time travel is invented and I can get those $2 back. Bottom line: I can't speak for their other services, but if you're getting waxed for the first time or you're emotionally fragile, skip this place. Seasoned vets and thick-skinned individuals, you can decide for yourself what you're willing to put up with for $20. read more

I've gone here twice and each time gotten an above average male haircut for very cheap prices ($20 and $16; they gave me a discount the second time for some reason). The other few customers seemed very loyal, though it was pretty empty. Apparently they've just recently relocated and have had a difficult time attracting clients. I recommend! read more

Worst idea. Ever. Next time I will wait the week to see a real stylist...no matter how long my hair is getting. I even brought a picture and I got something horrible. DO NOT GET A HAIRCUT HERE. read more

My rating is solely for Angela who is patient, talented and very professional. I have never encountered anything less than politeness from other persons on staff, but cannot speak to their hair styling skills. I appreciate that punctuality it rewarded and have yet to arrive and find someone "just slipped in" ahead of me, an irritating habit some other salons have. Haircuts are very reasonably priced and it is not unusual to have a bit of head massage while hair is being washed. read more

The staff is friendly. The haircuts are great. They just relocated but the PRICES ARE UNBELIEVABLE!!!

I moved to Brooklyn three years ago and moved from place to place to place before settling down at Image Unisex Salon for my haircuts and beard trims. Appointments are easily made and promptly kept. The work is excellent, the atmosphere casual and friendly, the prices moderate. I recommend Image Unisex without reservation. read more

I have been having my hair and nails done here for 30 years - Maya is the best! My whole family now comes here, and many of my friends. They also do leg wax, facials, brows , everything you could want, and their prices are so reasonable, I end up giving larger tips! read more

It always takes some looking, but then you find just the right person who "understands" your hair and always gives you a great cut. And if you're lucky, you find a gentle manicurist with just the right touch in the same establishment, eliminating an extra schlep. At Image, I have found both these great ladies, and the price is right! read more

Quick version: Anthony is a god with scissors and color, easy to get an appointment, prompt, attentive, well priced. Highest recommendation. In detail review: After receiving a horrible haircut at my normal salon in jersey, my aunt took me to her stylist of eight years, Anthony, at Image. The aforementioned bad haircut was so terrible and very short, so I was skeptical anyone could do anything to fix it. As it turned out, ANTHONY IS A MIRACLE WORKER. He transformed my bad (and difficult to work with) hair into a style I now love. He also gave me the most gorgeous, expertly blended highlights I've ever had. Needless to say, after one visit, I am a loyal customer of this fabulous establishment. An added bonus, the salon is very well priced. (My cut and color were much less than I paid at my old salon). Anthony only works on Thursdays though--the other days of the week he works at a very ritzy, exoribtantly-priced salon in Manhattan with high profile clients. Now that I've had him work on me once, I'd pay any price for his flawless work. But on Thursdays you can get this gem of a stylist for a great price in the more modest environent that Image Salon offers. In sum, I give this place my highest recommendation. Thank you so much Anthony and Image!! read more

this salon used to be amazing when it was located on Jorolemen Street. Unfortunately when it moved locations it went downhill. the facial's are wonderful, but its in a small secluded room that will make anyone claustrophobic. the salon is situated between a dog store and a toy store, so its very noisy and hard to relax. i have now switched salons to follow the only thing i really loved about the salon Julia, to down the block at Diva Salon on Henry Street. read more

These ladies are no nonsense. They get the job done and they are professional. I had a wax and a mani pedi with them and I was happy with the results. read more

I recently moved to Brooklyn Heights from Boston. With thinning,baby fine hair, I was concerned about finding someone who could cut and color well. Two of my neighbors recommended Image,so I gave it a try yesterday. Maya was happy to accommodate my desire to keep the same hairstyle I'd had for years, but fortunately, I gave her the go ahead to do what she felt would be more current and attractive for my hair and face. I am thrilled with the results. The color is natural looking, bright and pretty. The cut is youthful, current, and adds a look of volume. Maya showed me how to achieve the same styling result at home. She then recommended I have my eyebrows shaped by Olga. Olga's waxing gave me a more eyes wide open appearance. I've found my place in my new home! read more
