I haven't had my hair blown out in a longggg while simply because I've learned to do it myself…read more However laziness got the best of me so I decided to take a trip to impressions (which I've been to many times 5+ years ago). Anyways assuming new stylist come and go, I am solely basing this review off of my experience on 5/8/19. I went in for a wash and set, waited 45+ mins before I was even washed which isn't my main complaint. After sitting and waiting, waiting and sitting, being placed under a dryer which fried my scalp I was finally tended too by a young lady who seemed to be the only one styling hair. To make a long story short. My hair was NOT* styled to my liking and my scalp was nicely burned in more than one location (will insert photo) I personally will not be going back to this particular salon, but to each his own Recommendation: it would be nice to have at least 2+ people doing hair between washes, rollers, styling. Also if a customer shows you a picture of what kind of curls they like. Please do not do to the customer what you like. It does nothing for the person who didn't want that style originally.

Well I'm definitely not going back! I've learned my lesson! Naturals stay away. My hair did smell…read moreweird after washing but I hope it's heat damage. Crazy right? That I hope its heat damage and not something else. I wish andrea and the old 2010 employees were still there. I don't know what has happened but stay away if you love your hair. A side note I always visited this salon in 2010-2012 and I stopped visiting after going natural.(I stopped using heat on my hair unless it was a deep conditioner)anyways I decided I wanted a new look and only kept it straight for 3 days since I love my curls and I missed them.

First time visiting this salon. I called on a Sunday to inquire about an appointment time and they…read moreaccommodated me that same day. The salon had a good amount of customers in there so make sure you set aside a few extra hours. I do not remember the names of the 2 assistants ( I really wish I wrote it down). The older lady who had the stew peas soup with rice did a PHENOMENAL job washing and even massaging my scalp. WOW. Looking forward to seeing her again. Whatever she used to wash my hair left my scalp feeling cool and refreshed. Ms. Marcia styled my natural hair ( no perm) into coils. Today is Friday and my coils still look fresh and I've been getting none stop compliments. This shop is conveniently located right by the Cross island highway- 10 minutes from sunrise highway and it is not overpriced. Super happy with my look and will definitely return Parking is not too hard to find . It is not metered. This place is a Gem. Super happy I found it here on yelp.

Naturalistas look no further!…read more I repeat, it is safe! Cleared for landing! As I write this review, on day 1 of my super silky bouncy, shiny, silk press. I have to say that I am super satisfied with my experience at the salon and the results of my hair. As a life long natural girl that has experienced a tragic heat damage episode in the past, I thought it was important to go to salon that focuses on treating and maintaining healthy hair. This is it! I am an extremely "tender-headed" individual but as an adult I've learned to check myself and keep the sounds of my whimpers to myself. I made the tiniest noise when the stylist washing my hair started to detangle and she stopped and asked me if I was tender headed and resumed in the most gentle manner possible. She detangled my hair with softer hands than my own mother! I immediately felt like Judas betraying Jesus after that thought but you have to give credit where credit is due! I can't wait to come back! #newhairwhodis

Fantastic salon experience ! Highly Recommend Yolande ,…read moreshe's great -provides high quality hair care and addresses any issues. I've been going to her for the last few months, always provides great service, pleasant energy and if there is a wait she is mindful, tries to get you in and out. I had a hair dilemma after my braids , didn't have an appointment on a Saturday of all days and she still helped me work out my hair drama, I was beyond appreciative. That's the type of person she is, amazing service and delightful person. The salon itself has a good vibe ..friendly stylists and welcoming environment.

This was truly one of the best hair salon experiences I have had in life. From making a appointment…read moreto leaving the salon satisfied. If you want a real relaxing, satisfying and entertaining hair experience. Look no further. They say all the best male hair stylists, reside in Atlanta. They lied. The Atlanta salon experience has come to Queens! I have a private stylist who works from home doing natural protective styles. Every 3 months I am due for a trim. I needed a Professional. I have been researching Queens stylists that silk press natural hair with Edward scissor hand skills for months. A good friend researched Polish on Yelp and was styled by Keith and I was convinced I should visit for my silk press and trim. Immediately when I arrived, I was satisfied with the ambiance of the salon. Clean and spacious. There were a few clients ahead of my appointment time, so Keith kindly introduced himself and explained that his assistant David would take me to the sink to wash my hair. What followed was pure bliss. David was a sweetheart. Highly entertaining and has magic hands. My shampoo scalp massage was a answer to a prayer! He washed my hair thoroughly and used great products. He did not struggle to detangle my hair so my blow out was seamless. He took his time and the service was worth every penny spent. Best shampoo I've ever had. The products used on my hair were great. Not heavy or cheap. Keith silk pressed me and trimmed my hair for the Grand Finale to give it dimension and body. The results were exactly what I desired. Clean, fragrant, LIGHT, full of body, bounce. Silked, Shiny, Sheared and Slayed by the Gods. I like that all the staff here are personable and hilariously funny. I had a great 3.5 hours spent here. I will be back. Many women will complain about the cost of salon prices but you truly get what you pay for at Polish. They live up to a true "hair lounge" experience.

Would not recommend going to this beauty salon as the service is poor quality. On two occasions I…read morescheduled an appointment with the owner for a cut/ shape ( I wanted a bob), and on both occasions she did not show up. Both my appointments were scheduled for 11:00am; The first time I waited over an hour an 15 minutes for her and I left. Her employee stated there was an issue with her car, which is understandable things happen. She reached out to me to reschedule, but given my Scheudle It was not possible. Out of good faith I rescheduled as this was a one time event. On the second appointment I waited over 40 minutes for her. This time there was an issue with " her cable". While waiting she calls one of her employees in the salon and inquires what they want to eat being as she's getting food ( mind you I'm waiting ). She has no regard for the time of others or herself. If this is how she runs her business good for her. What I will not accept is getting a message from booksy stating that I was a no show, when I was there and she wasn't. She's overpriced and overrated!! Adjust your time slots for your business if you can't meet the demands of your customers.

I hate to give a black owned business a bad rating but I will never return to this salon again…read more First off, my appointment was 10:30am but the salon never opened til 11am. When I walked back (for the 3rd time) at 11am I asked the girl inside what time do they open. She said 10am but today they were running a little behind and to have a seat. Okay cool whatever. Shortly after I came in, two more ladies also walked in and were asked to have a seat as well. I asked the girl what time my stylist was coming (as this was my first time here) and she said she would be here shortly (this is around 11:20ish). 12:10pm comes and I'm still sitting there annoyed so I get up and ask again .. is she coming or not because this is is just ridiculous. She directs me to the chair and begins the process and explains that when the stylist (Bubbles) comes in, she would finish the rest. If it wasn't for this girl being such a sweetheart I would've left the salon a long time ago ANYWHO! I'm under the dryer and it is now maybe 2:00? Someone walks to the back of the salon, picks up my hair dryer, touches my scalp and says 5 more min. Let me remind you I'VE NEVER BEEN HERE ! So I don't know who you are, you don't say hello, you just walk in and touch my scalp? As if I'm not annoyed already . I finally sit in her chair, she asks what style do I want and proceeds to ROUGHLY do my hair. No other words were exchanged, no friendly demeanor, it's almost as if she didn't want me in her chair. Then she had the nerve to suggest that she would stop in the middle of doing my hair to eat. EATTT??? (I think my death glare changed her mind lol) I was so happy when she finished my hair. I was satisfied with the way it looked, I won't discredit her for her skills. She's great at what she does. HOWEVER! The professionalism, I could do without. She definitely needs to work on being there on time and being nicer to her clients. For someone who was excited to do the big chop for their first time, she definitely robbed me of that experience.

Yesterday evening was my first time going to this salon. I was a little anxious, going to new…read moresalons can be intimidating at times. You never know the vibe of the salon, or how they operate. But I was excited that I was able to call on Monday and get an evening appointment for Tuesday because my crochet braids were approaching bird nest status and I needed a new look. Entering the salon I was immediately greeted and my hair dresser met me (Kenny). She quickly removed my old crochet braids, washed, deep conditioned, and blow dried my hair. She made very neat braids (not too tight not too loose, just right), and installed the crochet hair. I was really impressed with how natural she made the knots on the parted area look (invisible knot). I had never had that done before, it was always very obvious I had a crochet style in. The hair came out big and curly just the way I like it. Crossing my fingers I don't ruin it going to the gym! I got so many compliments today at work on my hair! Looking forward to going back to the salon and getting my hair done by Kenny. Happy I had a pleasant experience and felt welcomed. Since this is a small business I recommend bringing cash and finding out the price before getting the service. But, if all else fails there's a Chase bank on the corner.

This place sucks, for $100.00 sew in. Thats exactly what they mean. Got my hair done on May 14,…read more2026. By May 20, 2026 the braids were lifting. Every worker in there works under pressure. The owner has a nasty attitude. She likes to tell the workers what to do. She did a clients hair and the client walked out with a cap dome on her head. The stylist said oh I didnt take pictures and the client said to her ill send you one. They do not make you feel comfortable.
