    I loved this place when I lived on the UWS. Angela is the best. She colors hair perfectly and is so kind! You will love getting your hair done here, best balayage. It's also very affordable for color and Anglea does a great job.

    Balayage with Sam

    Sam works wonders with color. I recently switched up from my usual and was nervous about it. But of course Sam knew exactly what I was looking for and the outcome was far better than what I expected. Have literally been getting compliments everywhere I go.

    I had a really nice experience with Sandra. I shared a pre-pandemic picture of my hair & she got me back to the color that I feel most myself. Plus a good haircut to make my hair feel healthy again!

    This is my go to place for color + cut and style. This place is absolutely wonderful! From The location, to the decor and the wonderful staff. You are greeted by the warm and kind receptionist Lona who is always smiles and good energy in person and on the phone. I've been seeing Ola for several months now she took my lifeless hair that I'd been coloring at home myself and transformed it to a gorgeous work of art. I wish you could see the before! I had several shades of black that needed some major work. Ola did a balayage a few shades lighter than the base color that looks incredible. It's low maintenance and I only have to see her once a month for a single process and a toner. The shampoo is a relaxing spa experience I swear Martina has magic hands. After her shampoo and deep conditioning treatment I am super relaxed. I absolutely love the ladies at Kolorbar all the stylists are super kind and very nice. My hair looks amazing! Ask Ola to give you the beach waves.

    I cannot say enough good things about Kolorbar, but especially my hairstylist, Ola. She was absolutely AMAZING! I had never done balayage before, and wanted a complete hair transformation. She talked me through exactly what would be done, gave me wonderful suggestions and just exceeded my expectations in every way. Also, she stayed past closing to complete the color/styling since I wasn't sure how long the process would take or what I wanted to get, when I first arrived. Everyone was so kind and friendly and i have now found my go to salon and hairstylist! Highly recommend!

    Sam was incredible. Recieved an amazing balayge & haircut. Best service I have ever received. Sam was extremely attentive to detail & helped me achieve exactly what I asked for / showed in pictures. 10/10 service and results Can not recommend Sam enough!! Instagram @samerfares

    I love the staff at Kolorbar at 83rd street. The front desk is always so helpful, friendly, and organized. Sam is absolutely gifted with color and cuts!

    It's been 2 months since Sam did my hair (balayage and cut) and it looks like it was done yesterday. He delivered on exactly what I was looking for, blending and lightening my hair into a beautiful ash blonde (from a dirty blonde/brown) without any brass or making it too bleach-blonde. The color matches perfectly with my skin tone and has a natural feel to it. He did a great job on the cut as well--adjusting my part and detailing to give my hair more volume and a really clean look. Sam takes a lot of pride in his work and his passion for hair shows. Not to mention, he was very nice and attentive throughout the whole process. Get your hair done @ Kolorbar by Sam and you won't be disappointed.

    I have been exclusively going to Sam for my hair for the past 5 years and he is absolutely amazing. We have done so many different things with my hair and each time I have been blown away! He took me from jet black hair to blonde, icy blonde, brown, and more all while keeping my hair healthy and beautiful. His work is phenomenal and on top of that he's such a great person. He always makes time for me and treats me so kindly. As a loyal client, I highly recommend Sam to anyone who wants amazing color and an amazing person. If you want great color, you HAVE to go to Sam. Thank you, Sam!

    Milbon smoothing treatment and haircut
    Bri G.

    I came in for a haircut and Paula exceeded my expectations. I have naturally very curly hair (3b) and she understood all my hair concerns as she is a curly girl herself. I usually wear my hair straight but she gave me a very flattering haircut that I can wear either straight or curly. I have been scarred by keratin treatments and she introduced me to a smoothing treatment by Milbon that doesn't change my hair texture (aka no curl loss or funky grow out) but removes frizz and holds up in humidity for weeks. GAME CHANGER!! My hair has never felt so soft, shiny and healthy. Go see Paula your hair won't regret it!

    Hair by ola!
    Samantha L.

    I absolutely love Kolorbar. Ola usually does my hair and she is incredible. She's quick, she's meticulous and everyone always asks where I got my blow out done. I cannot recommend this place more. Everyone is friendly, they are very accommodating and they even will give my kids a little hairdo! Love love love!!

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.

This was their "best advice for me" and that I should come back and get both together. I only needed a haircut and this was the only chance I got (I am a SAHM with 2 kids and minimal backup except this day) so I said I would consider it but I need a cut now. It was 6 months since my last. That must have just not been the right thing to say bc I was judged, insulted during the entire session and I got the worst haircut of my life. I can't even get it fixed because it is so much shorter than I wanted. There are huge "texture" discrepancies all over my hair, the most obvious being in the back near my neck. There's also a strand of hair far longer than the entire length of my bob cut. I don't even understand how this happened. I'm so traumatized. I would never recommend this place and will never ever come back. I really had 1 chance to get a cut as a treat to myself, since I really don't have extra time to spare. And now I have to live with this until it grows out, definitely more than 6 more months. If I could give -1000 stars, I would. Please do yourself a favor and find a salon that can do a nice cut for long AND SHORT hair. WITHOUT A PERM TO MAKE IT ALL STRAIGHT FIRST. The skill level here is just so sub par. I could have done it myself.

I haven't cut my hair in 6 months and I have really long straight natural hair so you can say it is a blank canvas. This is probably one of the worst haircut I have gotten in years compared to other places that are in different price ranges. Leaving the salon it looked good styled but when I went home to wash it and had more time to look without it curled I saw really choppy layers and the length is much shorter than i wanted. For a cut I paid $107-110 not including tips and expected a decent cut for that amount. Truly disappointing as holidays are coming up and I have been wearing a hat to cover up, cannot wait for this to grow out but will take months. Ara was really sweet and nice but I don't think the skills were there.
