Have you ever been ready to leave a hair salon with shampoo in your hair?…read more Well that was me this Tuesday at Mystique hair and salon. I would seriously given the service ( or more accurately, the lack there of) zero stars if that was an option. I called up in advance to let the salon know that I was running exactly 5 mins late for a wash and a Blo dry. They still call me 3 mins later to check. I arrive at 6:35 pm exact and let Sarah know that my hair is a week old dirty and that I would need 2 shampoos . She gives me a look and tells me that she has no time for a second shampoo and that she has a 7 pm. At this point- I let me hair out of the scrunchie and let her know that may not happen given my hair length and texture. She berates Morgan from the front desk in not letting her know about my hair and at this point she is rough and rude in her actions. Proceeds to shampoo my hair while berating me for being 5 mins late. I try to think of more pleasant things but then she proceeds to cursory shampoo without scrubbing. I tell her again that my hair is really dirty and she is rude in her response back. I get up with shampoo in my hair and ask to speak with the manager about the abysmal customer service. The manager is not there. Morgan at the front desk washes out my hair as a courtesy and I leave with the managers name and number. Sarah tries to engage with me once more "explaining" why I am wrong- I ask her to desist and walk on. Talk about customer service! You would have thought I was getting a wash and Blo dry for free or as charity the way I was treated. Not sure why they accept late appointments if the stylists are tired, bored or just not upto it. Wonder if the primary modus operandi is to collect money from hapless customers while being rude. Hmm... never known that to work anyplace before!!! Avoid this place even if it is your option if last resort especially Sarah. My first experience there about a week ago was also "borderline" rude with another stylist but I did not write about because it was borderline. But this second experience has compelled me to provide this review. People- be aware. Maybe there are others who are nicer at this salon- but this stylist was not! Oh and I tried calling the salon today to talk to the manager- but my calls went into oblivion. Maybe I will have better luck tomorrow.

Cosmo Bleu is next to a consignment shop and bubble tea place, on the "other" side of Nassau. The outside awning looks a little dated, but the interior seemed clean and not as old looking as I had expected from other reviews. Aguri did a great job with my hair and was really fun to chat with. The head massage during the shampoo was really relaxing, and she listened to what I was looking for before making her own suggestions. I just wanted to trim my bob without looking like a puffball (I have a round face, and Asian hair protests against volume), and she did just that while restyling my layers. It's been about a month since then, and my hair still looks good (with maybe one area that's grown out a bit flippy). I'm not sure if I'll be totally changing stylists quite yet, but Aguri has gained my trust.

I was matched with Olguita Delgado and couldn't be more pleased. She listened attentively and surprisingly asked a key question, "What were you unhappy about with your last cut?"

When you arrive you are seated and offered a drink from their drink menu and a snack. (One day it was Italian pastries and I was in heaven) Jacqueline is such an amazing stylist. She is patient and listens to "the look" I'm going for and always follows through with amazing results. I have a lot of grey roots. We've decided to keep my hair lighter to help cover the greys when they come in. The color always looks amazing and we go between highlights and toner to help strengthen my hair. My hair is curly and she gives the perfect cut for my hair type and length. They have R and CO products which I love and by using them at the salon and now at home my hair feels amazing. Also, the stylist Brie gives the most amazing scalp massage that is the icing onn the cake! If you're looking for a place to be pampered this is it!

As soon as you walk in you feel like you are in luxury. The decor makes you feel like you are in a upscale salon in NYC. The light colors, the crystal chandeliers, the luxurious furniture.

I never leave disappointed. The products they use on your hair too are so divine. When they wash your hair they give a great scalp massage as well. Usually washing stations are so uncomfortable, but here it is a great place to lay back, have your hair washed and just unwind. It is a beautiful salon and you walk out feeling like a million dollars!
