At first, she does your hair well, but after the first two or three visits, the quality drastically…read moredeclines. She becomes rushed and careless, ripping and aggressively pulling hair, burning the scalp, and stopping the roller dryer before the hair is fully dry - clearly rushing through the service just to be done, instead of saying, "Come another day so I can do it properly." It feels greedy and careless, prioritizing leaving over quality and safety. Blowouts are left uneven, with noticeable patches still wet whenever she feels like rushing home. The pulling and excessive heat caused significant scalp pain, which continued even after I left the salon. My scalp was sore and tender, and my hair felt extremely brittle and damaged due to the lack of care and excessive heat. I was forced to re-wet and deep condition my freshly blown-out hair because it felt so dry and destroyed. So essentially it was pointless and a waste. She pulls the hair instead of gently detangling, even when it is obvious it hurts and even after you say something. She refuses to lower the heat on the blow dryer, despite visible clouds of smoke as she's blowing my hair out, clearly prioritizing leaving over client safety. Which she promoted someone to open the door when she saw the smoke. During my service, she was distracted, even telling friends to remotely restart her car while working on my hair. To make matters worse, she then tries to charge more for a very poor job. I have always been a fair and loving client. I've given advice on natural remedies to improve sleep and digestion, sent her links for supplements, offered tips on exercise and staying active since I am a wellness coach, and would offer her help when I heard her mentioning that she was at th doctors office. I am not a difficult or "bad" client, yet this treatment was unacceptable. I initially gave her the benefit of the doubt, thinking she may have just had a rough day once before and I stayed away for weeks. Unfortunately, my most recent visit December 28,2025 confirmed that I do not want someone like that touching my hair. Beware. What makes it worse is that she's the owner. Her name is Esther. I am extremely disappointed, to say the least, and money is the least of my concern. If the job is done well and I am cared for and protected, the price is irrelevant. I'll pay that and more. That was not the case here. When I shared with her how I felt and explained my experience, she did not apologize or show concern. There are two other local Dominican salons in town that offer better service at fair prices: Annely Beauty Salon and Nshalai Beauty Salon, with Nshalai being the top choice. While I got along well with her mother, and at times she did a better job at Blow salon, which is why I continued returning--the ongoing inconsistency, lack of delicacy, and disregard for client safety/pain make this a place I cannot recommend to anyone I know. Ester or Ruth is her name im not entirely sure what she goes by. She is however the owner

It's…read moreconveniently located near my place, and I was able to get an appointment just a day prior by walking in -- super easy and quick. Since it was my first visit, they created my account on the spot and made the whole process smooth. I went for a layered haircut to shorten my hair a bit. I showed the stylist a reference picture, and she completely understood the look I wanted. The session started with a nice hair wash, followed by the cut and blow-dry. The stylist did a great job -- my hair feels light, fresh, and styled just how I envisioned. They also offered tea, coffee, or other drinks as a kind gesture, which I really appreciated. The entire service took about 45 minutes on a Sunday, and I walked out happy with the result. The total cost came to $99 including tax, which felt a bit pricey to me for a haircut. However, the experience and quality were good enough that I'd consider going back -- hopefully when they have some offers for their regular clients!

My hair stylist, Nairoby, listened to my concerns and wants before getting my appointment started. I got a toner, hair cut, and blow out. Took about 90minutes (as expected). It was a great experience and at $105 (also typical pricing), I tipped $20. I was even able to get $5 off as it was my birthday! I recommend this spot and will return. *To the person below who spent $137 and LIKED the outcome of their hair, shame on you for tipping $7, especially during these difficult times. I believe expressing to the salon the disappointment in wait and having them remedy it would have been a proper way to handle this.

Even if you have an appointment you will be waiting for hours. I once had a 10 am appointment and she didn't start my hair till 2pm.

This hair salon knows how to do hair but you will spend the entire day at the salon so if you are a person who hates waiting this is not the place for you.

The Hair Stylist Sandra took people that were cutting their hair ahead of her that are walk-ins. My mom asked if she was gonna wait longer or she should reschedule. Sandra then said I will take you now and started doing my moms hair. When she started doing her hair and she was distracted on other people rather than putting attention on her client that is on the chair. She did my moms highlights, and my mom mentioned that she yanked her head when applying it, and that it hurt her very much. She mentioned it to Sandra, and instead of apologizing, and she said that she had to put the color in her hair this way. once washing, she was going to cut my mom's hair, but then realized the color didn't latch to my mom's new highlights and told her to go back to the other helper to get the color in the middle of a haircut. My mom said if she could finish the haircut first, but Sandra made her go to the other helper. When that part was done, she ended up cutting her hair very uneven. She was finally done at 4 PM. Her layers on the left were longer than her layers on the right. My mom decided to shower because her scalp was very itchy and hurt. Once showering and brushing her hair She noticed that her roots are orange. Some of her hair is a greenish tint and some of her other hair have a purple hue.. Sandra did a really bad job and all my mom wanted to do was look pretty for Mother's Day. If you are going by appointment, don't even waste your time because she takes everyone else before you. As mentioned in all the other comments as well, the clients time isn't valuable to the stylist.

Last Sunday was my first visit to G & C Studio, and I'm so glad I finally found Gina!…read more Before making my appointment, I spent times to looking through reviews and photos, hoping to find a hairstylist who could truly understand what hairstyle would suit me. I'm happy to say that I believe I finally found the right stylist! Gina carefully evaluated my hair and recommended a digital perm that would best suit me. She explained that I would need three different levels of curls: a root perm at the top, soft curls in the middle, and medium curls at the bottom. I really appreciated how carefully she considered my hair and the style I wanted. She also pointed out that my hair is quite dry and recommended using K18 hair treatment after the perm to help repair and strengthen my hair. Her professional advice gave me so much confidence, and I had no worries at all. Thank you so much, Gina, for your professional recommendation and for taking the time to understand my hair. I'm very happy that I finally found a hairstylist I can trust!

We decided on long layers with face-framing pieces, and I absolutely love the result. He was kind, knowledgeable, and never made me feel rushed.

($50 for a trim? come on.) Overall, the energy is very catty from the moment you walk in and sometimes the workers talk about each other when the others aren't at work, IN FRONT of clients. Very unprofessional and I wouldn't be surprised to see them go out of business in the future.
