I can't say enough good things about Melony at Velvet Monkey Salon. I've had dreadlocks for over 10…read moreyears, and they're long, thick, and take real patience to work with and Melony handles them with so much care, skill, and attention every single time. She never rushes, always listens, and genuinely cares about keeping my hair healthy and looking its best. What really stands out though is the energy of the whole salon. Both the 63rd Street and Plaza locations are full of kind, welcoming, sincere people, from the owner to the receptionists to every stylist I've met. You can feel the difference the moment you walk in. After years of coming here, I can honestly say this place is special. Good people, good energy, and a great environment. Highly recommend Melony and the entire Velvet Monkey team!

This was a nice and trendy salon. I had a good experience at the beginning with Samantha. She was…read morefriendly and she was gentle with the application. I asked for a J-Lo makeup look and it was close enough. The lip color wasn't long-lasting. She gave me a tiny sample for touch-ups but honestly, it wasn't enough. Anyway once I was done I waited for my partner to pick me up. You wouldn't believe it but I overheard them talking bad about me and laughing like mean high schoolers. So unprofessional! I was sitting next to their booth with a white sheer curtain between us. They couldn't wait until I left!? At first, I was like "This is going well, I like my makeup and I will come back" but I was in shock and was deeply hurt after what they said. And the twist is Samantha is the owner.

He left upset at an uneven job from a girl who barely seemed to know what she was doing. All I wanted was to get my boyfriend a trim that he was happy with and they didn't even have time to fix it as the next appointment came in 30 minutes after we showed up. He just wanted an even short cut and she left it too long with no time to fix it. Don't go here for men's haircuts. It seems to be geared towards women's dye jobs.

I don't go to many salons because I rarely go home feeling happy about my cut. After getting very…read moreannoyed with all my split ends I decided to give in and go here because the reviews seemed good and I'm happy I did! Traci was my stylist and the service was amazing. She cut my bangs perfectly and trimmed all the dead ends off. I usually hate talking during service because I just feel awkward but she made me feel comfortable and welcome. Not only that but I also had my hair styled and I think I left that salon feeling the cutest I ever have. Tracey gave me perfect beachy waves; I was taking pictures for everyone. I'm definitely going to start coming here and getting my hair cut/styled more often! Edit: I took it down by two stars because I had my hair cut by someone else who wasn't Tracey and I'm very disappointed with it. I asked for my bangs to be "long enough to sweep to the side but short enough I can wear them straight down if I want to" and had a picture showing what I meant. It was the same thing I told Tracey and same picture. The other girl cut them so short that they're half an inch above my eyebrows. I left with uneven blunt bangs; not at all what I asked for :/ I'm still going back but I'm definitely not risking having someone else cut my hair next time. I'm incredibly sad with how my hair looks

This hair experience was unlike any other. Kristen took time to consult with me not just about my…read moredesired look, but my long term hair goals, how to make it healthier how often to trim it, what my style and personality was like and worked up a reliable price quote from there. It was like going to...a hair doctor! So cool! I've never had a stylist take care of me that much! The appointment was stellar too, she's is to talk to and communicate with so the outcome truly was a collaboration of my ideas and her artistry. We got an absolutely beautiful color and a gorgeous cut that I can't stop touching because my hair has never felt better! I grin every time I see it in the mirror and feel totally on top of the world beautiful!

I went to Lollie's Beauty Bar to have hand-tied extensions installed for the first time. During my…read moreconsultation, my stylist and I discussed that this would be a learning experience for both of us to install curly extensions. I was very clear that if I was going to invest in extensions, I wanted them to be thick and was willing to pay more for more bundles if needed. I was reassured that what I was ordering was enough. I told her that I definitely would want as many installed as possible. Upon arriving to my appointment, I saw that the extensions did not match the curl pattern of my hair, and I had not been made aware of this prior to my appointment (despite the hair arriving prior to my appointment date). Due to my lack of experience, I mistakenly thought that maybe if they were wet and styled different they would blend. After installing roughly half of the extensions, I left the salon and was immediately in tears, seeing that I was wearing what looked to be clip-in Claire's mullet extensions. My hair and the extensions had not been blended whatsoever and there was a huge gap between my hair and the extensions. I decided to speak up and request that we add in as many more as possible and was accommodated with kindness. After styling my hair, cutting and blending it, and adding the extra wefts-- they looked as I had hoped. I decided to pay my stylist for her extra efforts, despite being surprised to have left the first time in that condition. A week and a half later and the entire bottom two wefts of extensions came completely unsewn from my head. The tangling took a chunk of extension and a chunk of my hair to get them unstuck. After expressing honest disappointment and frustration to have to visit a third time, I was given an irritated response and essentially told that this was something I should have expected and I felt that I was being told this was my fault. I requested a refund for the installation because I no longer felt comfortable returning again and I feared that the remaining wefts were also installed improperly and have to now pay yet another stylist to uninstall and then reinstall the hair. After going back and forth with the stylist, the owner gave me a call. She essentially told me that even though she'd never had a client have extensions fall out, the stylist did nothing wrong and she didn't understand why I wouldn't come back in and that we'd have to pick up the conversation another time because her husband was wanting to know when she was coming home and she'd been working all day. I was left with 0 solution other than returning for them to sew in the bottom weft. I was told that there was a no refund policy, and when I asked if there was anywhere that I could have read or been made aware of that policy prior to my services, she stated that it didn't exist anywhere because she'd never needed to tell someone that. While I really liked my stylist, I feel that she was much less prepared than I had been made aware of or understood and I do not feel I received the services I paid for. I felt that after I communicated how unhappy I was, things went downhill quickly. Now I am stuck with thin-looking extensions that I will now have to pay someone else to take out and install properly, after paying $2,600+ for this experience. I do NOT recommend at all. Update: 07/13/22 Update: I now have what I've been told are "tension sores" in different areas on my scalp where the hair was pulled too tightly or unevenly around my head that could cause traction alopecia. They are infected and I am potentially going to have to have the extensions removed as well as a medicated ointment for the skin.
