I live in the area and have been bouncing around from salon to salon; never really finding the right colorist...until now. I walked past PANYC several times and finally decided to give it a try. I chose PAULINE because she is a senior colorist and her prices are a bit lower than the master level. The consulation was top notch and ...

I found Panyc on Citysearch and called to see when they had an opening. He first offered a SAME DAY CUT for 90$, and when I asked if there was anything cheaper ...

She started doing my hair about 2 years ago and it has been perfect everytime. She is truly passionate about what she does and it shows in her work. I would recommend her to anyone that wants their hair done right.

This is because they work hard, know the business, make good business decisions and choose to provide great service at prices clients can afford, instead of trying to "wow" their clientele with a lot of idiotic extras (i.e. a cheap glasses of wine, live people ha...

I recently decided to start coloring my hair and was told by one of the receptionists that PAULINE was the girl to see. She came highly recommended, mainly because she?s been doing it for so many years and has tons of experience. I was nervous at first because I?m very picky about...
Read More On Citysearch AshleySe 8/6/2009 - The hair whispererOk so here's what you need to know.
First I am about as rational as a 5 year old child when it comes to my hair. I NEVER want to cut it or fuss with it. In fact, there are plenty of days when I find that I actually have mats that resemble dread locks in the back of my head at the bottom. Ok, that's a little embarrassing but it needs to be said. I only brush it occasionally and it usually look...

I had been highlighting my hair for a long time.

I would recommend Chris for a cut. I have thick, wavy and difficult hair and he gave me a flattering cut that held its shape for a few months. He seemed bored and rude though, and did a very lazy job at blow-drying my hair out. I left the salon with a lot of fly aways that I think could have been avoided if he took my time blow-drying my hair or if he bothered to put another product or two in ...

I was impressed and my hair looked great. and the price (shampoo, cut and blodry) was affordable. I look forward to telling people about the salon. I hope they get a sign outside to announce their presence. They deserve it.

This was my first time here and I was extremely pleased with the result. I got a fantastic touch up on some severely out-grown roots, high lights and low lights.

I recently went to the Panyc hair salon to have my hair cut. The stylist that was recommended to me was a young man by the name of Michael.

I had an appointment with Simon at Panyc. It was the worse service and cut I've ever received. He did not allow enough time for the service I requested and proceeded to rush through my appointment.

I asked for a simple trim and I ended up with some crazy rocker chick chop job. I went to another salon to get a consult about fixing it and the stylist said that this was the worst haircut she's seen in years. It's going to take over a year to get it back to the way it was before. I thought $65 was a good deal, but it ened up costing $200 all together after gett...

I have had several disasters in this city and was really trying to find a salon to stick with.

Mary Lou does THE BEST highlights and is completely honest about what color will and will not work for you.

I would bring in pictures to every new salon I went to, with detailed description and expressive words, but it never worked. I never achieved the haircut of my dreams. I thought that maybe I was using the wrong words to describe, or that my pictures weren't clear enough because no one ever got it. When I walked into Panyc and...

Someone told me about the salon, so I gave it a try. Can someone please pass the word around about this place. It was so chill, and they have a salon dog named Peanut. She is so cute. She just sits in your lap, and falls right to sleep. I'm so glad that I found a place where the stylist li...

When I arrived, I found a smaller then expected salon with little children running around screaming and helping to sweep the floor. They were loud and their energy seemed to take o...

I asked around the office for a salon. Many of the girls go to Panyc. So I tried it. I went in and saw Pauline. I was kind of rude at first, I was really neavous. Pauline calmed me down. She knew what she was talking about. I had the best shampoo by Jillian. Pauline then blew me out. Let me te...

Chris was the artist who worked on my hair. He was incredible. For the $55.00 I was charged, it was worth every penny. He spent from 12:15 until 2pm, working on my hair. I felt like he rea...

I've never wanted to go back to a salon after going to one, until now. Panyc offers a great and friendly atmosphere, they honor their appointments (I wasn't waiting for 4 hours as I did at the last place I went to) and my teacher wallet didn't feel any pain.
I entrusted my (black) hair to Paul and I love the cut....

It looked almost as good 3 months after the fact and more importantly I was able to do it myself at home. However, there were some things that didn't go like we discussed. I mentioned at least once that my wedding is next year and I plan to wear it down and long. I s...

It's a nice change from the pretentious over priced places of NY. All of the people are very welcoming and friendly and they do a great job. By the way, Chris is freakin' hot and I kinda wanted to make out with him the whole time he was cutting my hair.
Read More On Citysearch koopy21 6/1/2006 - PANYC ROCKSI have been going to Paulie for my cuts for over 6 years and he always gives me an amazing cut. He has become a great friend and confidant too! Marylou is the best colorist in NYC, she works it like a true PRO! JC, PEANUT are awesome, Cory is hysterical and Chris is great too! I seriously recommend stopping by and meeting these peeps, it is a totally chill, cool environment.

I looked on Citysearch and came across Panyc. Most of the reviews were positive, so I decided to give it a try last weekend not knowing what to expect. Well, it is truly one of the best salons in NYC. The staff was cool, laid back and very attentive. No fake names, no funky out...
Read More On Citysearch deenyc 5/5/2006 - I travel from Delaware for PANYC hairSimply the best! Marylou is a color artist; Pauly a hair genius. No wonder this salon is such a success and PANYC comes so highly recommended. I live at Delaware's shore points and won't hesitate to travel to NY for this treatment. It is worth it! Can't say enough about the skill, atmosphere and overall PANYC experience. I love it and can't wait to return.
Read More On Citysearch cabbybrown 5/1/2006 - highly recomendedFor the best color of your life go to Mary Lou! I went from a dark brunette to a blonde and love it, plus I get tons of compliments. Not only was Mary Lou proffesional she was honest and had great ideas. I had my cut done by Paulie, who knows curly hair. So if you need a great cut or just a blow out he's the one to go to.

Eight of my friends (and some of my family) are Panyc customers and kept raving to me about the place. I went there for the first time and became a regular right a way.
Nothing more to add - Simply the best!
Thanks Panyc! I love you! :)

The last time I was in, he listened patiently while I complained about how I was fed up with my life, then snipped 3+ years' worth of black dye out of my hair, gave me a damn cute haircut, and made me a redhead.

Read More On Citysearch alexiarose 9/7/2005 - Go to this salon now!This salon is an absolute gem. There is zero, repeat, zero pretentiousness, which is a rare find in New York. I have super curly hair and JC cuts it perfectly, but the salon is also very straight hair-friendly. Marylou is the resident color doyenne, Chris did a cut for a guy today that was shaggy-hipness and Paulie makes everyone feel at home. Is this place for real? Yes -- go there now!

Paulie did a fabulous job on my long layers and I had a really fun time chatting it up with everyone in a casual atmosphere. Someone waiting for their cut even said "can you cut my hair like hers?" I'll definitely go back. Head on over and tell them Shell sent you!

Paul and Mary Lou are miracle workers and you will have a difficult time finding more skilled stylists in NYC -especially at their prices. It's an "everyone knows your name" type salon and it's always an enjoyable experience.
