    Nika has been in charge of my hair for 2 decades. She has a good eye for elegance and high quality style that's hard to match. It's difficult to find a proper professional who understands how to treat fine hair like mine, and her ability to do that keeps me coming back even after moving out of NYC.

    Nika is amazing. I've been a client since 2018. She is incredibly professional and she knows everything and a master with color and cuts. Never a long wait either, she books appointments with consideration for your time. Go see her for a blow out too! Better than Blo or DryBar and earlier hours for it too if you need before work!

    Great color, I loved it.

    My visit here was great! Place is quiet with just you and one other customers plus the stylists and one assistant. Makes you feel like they are only focusing on taking good care of you. The place is chic and clean. The lady asked questions of what you like and want and goes right to work. The hair was is good as always...Warm towel on your neck and those massage on your head.....Puts me to sleep! End result is exactly what I want as usual. Just enjoy it!

    Blow dry intact without hair spray even next morning. Love my hair and how smooth it is still.

    Omg. Can't believe this salon was right by my hotel. They were amazing. The sudden warm weather and peloton classes were making my hair limp. So I needed a pick me up. I generally like deep conditioning for my hair. I have frizzy Indian hair which is thick and curly. No matter how much I shampooed, my hair was losing lusture and smoothness. I called them in the morning and got an appointment for the evening. I had a speech soon after that so it was so great to get an appointment on time. The salon is small. But the staff is just amazing. They are so welcoming that I didn't feel I went there for the first time. We talked so much I felt I have known them for years. No one has given me such an amazing blow for couple of years now. I'm from Connecticut and feel bad that they are not near Hartford :( but now I know where to go to when I'm in New York. It's very near grand central. At the end my hair is so smooth and the blow dry was so amazing , my boy friend thought I had a hair cut :) So it was indeed a very good find. If you are in New York definitely try them.

    If you're looking for a new hair salon stop scrolling... LENVIE is the absolute best, and i can't thank them enough. I had a bad brown balayage that i didn't like at all and i was looking to go to a nice bright blonde. Everywhere told me i couldn't do it or it would cost over 500+. I came here today for a consultation and wow am I so so so so happy i went through with it. My hair turned out amazing and the staff is incredible, they truly care about you here and worked so hard for over 6 hours on my hair i can't thank them enough!!! please come and see what i'm talking about you won't regret it I have before and after photos down below

    BLONDES BEWARE! they will destroy your precious blonde locks with no remorse or apology! I came in with 4 weeks regrowth(literally not that much) ..left looking like I've been dragged thru hell and back. I'm now 25 going on 35..I wish I was joking. my beigey blonde hair has been turned GRAY with what is a very ugly dark root base??!! (ummm I went in to LIGHTEN my roots...now I look like I have 3 months of regrowth....) the owner was not very helpful or apologetic when I expressed my grievances. she simply told the girl to retone it .. which merely resulted in the very dark brown color being lifted to a god awful REDDISH BROWN.. and my blonde is still gray. it's muddy, it's ugly. I specified I wanted to be VERY blonde..highlights and a tint between(high lift color/bleach with tone at the bowl.. NOT a dark root shade!!) like the rest of my hair, hello.. on top of it all they took 0 accountability for what they did to my hair. it'd be one thing if they could actually own up and admit to the miscommunication issue, offer a sincere apology or discount perhaps???!! instead all of the workers came together to try to convince me my hair looks good...ummm.. lol just shows the entire salon is not to be trusted, honestly. seriously, avoid this place like the plague. ESPECIALLY if you're blonde and want to remain blonde with your hair in good health. see photos for the trauma I endured $300 later. unreal, they don't even deserve 1 star.

    This does NOT look natural!

    This was the absolute WORST hair experience - a total disaster! I came in for an ombre / balayage color. I showed the stylist pictures of exactly what I wanted. I emphasized that I wanted my hair to look natural and did not want bright blonde streaks. Four hours and hundreds of dollars later... I had horrific blonde streaks in my dark brown hair. It did not look natural and it was exactly what I said I did not want. When I saw my hair I was in total shock. I was very late for a birthday dinner that I was hosting so I had to run out. I put my hair in a high bun and tried not to think about the color. When I got home and looked at my hair again I was devastated. I work a corporate job and could not go to work with the hair color. I called / emailed / texted the salon and no response. This occurred on a long weekend. Thankfully, I was able to go to a different salon and they were able to fix my horrible hair color. When I finally spoke to the owner of the salon she refused to refund me for the hair color that I expressly stated I did not want. She said that I did not complain right after the fact so I clearly didn't hate it. That is absurd and incorrect. I received a service that I did not want and should have been reimbursed. This is the type of unprofessional conduct that causes people to contact the better business bureau. The owner offered to fix it... but only days after I had to fix it at a different salon because I could not go in to work with such a horrific color. -------------------- To respond to the response below: 1. I am not Amanda - so the entire response likely does not relate to me. 2. I did not text you prior to my appointment. I called to schedule the appointment. 3. I absolutely did not want anything dramatic. As I said above, I did not send any texts before my appointment. 4. I reached out the night after my appointment, not a week after. I had my hair done on a Saturday and did not hear from you until Tuesday. 5. Look at the picture below. This is NOT want I wanted. This is what I was afraid of. I look like a Skunk!

It truly creates a relaxing atmosphere. However, I've noticed that the quality of the mani & pedi has declined over the years, which has made me hesitant to return, even though it's in the most convenient location for me. These days when I returned, it's just for last minute color change to avoid more damage. I referred a friend to join me for a mani/pedi once, and she also mentioned that while the ambiance is great, but the owners should get their own mani & pedi done by their technicians, which I completely agree with. While I usually don't like getting my cuticles pushed or cut, I really appreciate that they respected that preference. However, when it comes to removing polish, it's done very recklessly with a lack of attention to detail. On several occasions, they've scraped the skin around the nails--sometimes cutting it to the point where it bled and required a bandage. When I mentioned this to the hostess after she asked for feedback, she dismissed it by saying I have sensitive skin. Since when is it normal for skin to be scraped during a mani/pedi? Additionally, I've had gel mani here twice in a row, and the technician over-shaved to the point where my nails ended up paper-thin that I have to ask the technician to apply extra coats to make up for it. One time, the technician even touched my skin with the machine that is used to shave the gel polish off. I've also had my skin scraped during pedicures, which is concerning. Every time I get a gel mani, within two weeks, the polish would start to lift on the cuticle side, which shows a lack of precision during the application. My friend got a regular mani & pedi here, and one of her nails chipped within a day. While I still love the atmosphere and the owners, the decline in the quality of the services, especially regarding polish removal, nail care, and attention to detail, has made me hesitant on coming back.

The interior design of the space is what pulled my attention when walking up 9th Ave. It is chic yet accessible and never approaches being or feeling gaudy. Very clean look (and space). Great color palate used. Very comfortable chairs. Good use of white space accentuated with green angular paint and golden decals and other ornamentations, all done minimally and with purposeful placement. Carmen (my nail tech) made good efforts and took obvious care to give me a nice buff manicure, all for only $27 (+ a small amount of tax). No nips or cuts. No pain. Textbook technique. Picked up well on when I wanted to zen out to the aura of the space and the well-curated spa playlist vs when I was open to a little nail tech kiki. Loved the sugar scrub they use for the hand massage. I take ownership for not getting the pre-cuticle work nail soak as part of the provided service. IMO, if a nail salon doesn't automatically incorporate the soak into your mani, you as the customer should speak up when the softening gel is pulled out and before it is applied. If they don't offer it? That's another thing. But I didn't test those waters and cannot speak to Nail Me Right (goodness gravy I love the business name!). So, keep in mind if the soak is your thing. They were very accommodating from the moment I arrived until I left. So I have a hunch this request wouldn't be a problem. Same with the end result. You as the customer are responsible for checking your nails / hands / feet / whatever before ending the appointment. I was late for my next appointment and did not, later seeing I would've like a little extra work done where the far end of nail edges meets the finger and a shinier buff applied. Again, I am quite sure Carmen would have accommodated had I done my part and spoken up before leaving. Still, I woke up the next morning to those slight extra bits naturally working themselves out (which points to the moisturizing measures NMR applies being of good quality), and my hand looking nice. I plan to pop in next time I'm in the area and in the market for some nail / hand / foot love, and hope you'll consider doing the same to support this family and what they're working to bring to the neighborhood.
