Read More On Citysearch michele1957 3/3/2010 - the only salon I trustCarolyn is absolutely the best stylist I have ever had and I would be lost without her! She has had advanced training at Deva in NYC, and it really shows! Carolyn knows how to listen and how to communicate; it is obvious she enjoys her clients.

She explained the dry curly cut process as she went and the day-to-day techinique. I'm very low maintenance and rolled my eyes at the suggestion of all the scrunching and such. But I figured I'd give it a go. This is about the first time in my 41 years that I've been really excited about a cut. My hair now curls...

She has made my traditionally knotty/frizzy hair look like it should - a headful of luscious curls. She gives her full attention to me when I'm there and my color looks great too! I'd reco her to anyone!
Read More On Citysearch eastcoastcurlygirl 12/6/2009 - See Carolyn for curly hairCarolyn at East 42nd Street Salon is the very best at working with curly hair. I saw her for a consult after a bad cut (curly girls get way too many of those), and she gave me a few tips to deal with my hair while the cut was growing out. The tips, just a couple, were great, and helped me like my hair and only want to wear it curly (instead of the fall-back, round-brush blow-out). Then, when my h...

CHERI is my trusted hair stylist and color artist -- she knows how to cut, loves to do it, and also has given me the best color/highlights that not only look amazing initially, but evolve beautifully. I am a brunette and typically get blond highlights. She stands behind her work and LISTENS to what you need. I found her by chance...

Cheri is a detail oriented, meticulous stylist who always provides an excellent cut. She listens to what we want, and provides us with excellent service. We both highly recommend Cheri to anyone looking for a stylist.
Read More On Citysearch jrscassady 11/8/2009 - Cheri Webster is a great colorist and cutter, the best!I visit Minneapolis several times a year and I always make an appointment with Cheri Webster for a cut, color and a deep conditioning. She works on one person at a time and gives her undivided attention to each client. She is very knowledge about hair, products, and is creative in her styling. The best in town

Read More On Citysearch CityGurl 10/27/2009 - best facial everI've been seeing Gen A for facials and eyebrow waxing for over a year, since she was in cosmetology school. She's a recent addition to the salon. I followed her to East 42nd Street Salon, because she's the only one I'll have do my facials. The massage portion of her facial is amazing. And she really knows what products to use so she doesn't irritate my skin. I've never broken out after one o...

She is soooooo amazing...getting a brazilian is about as relaxing as going in for your annual exam, but I think I have found my gal. I felt very comfortable with her from the start, she was efficient and very thorough which is HUGE for me. There is nothing worse than getting a wax job and getting home to find hair left behind!!! So, if you are on the market for a wax gal, you fou...

I have been here 4 or 5 times. The first two curly cuts were ok, but the last 2 have been bad! When I have to go to a $14 haircut place to fix a $65 haircut, I will not be returning!!!
Read More On Citysearch DJSMITH 6/24/2009 - Carolyn Saved My Curly HeadI'm 53 and up to last year have had maybe 12 haircuts I didn't do myself. I gave up on going to salons after several disasters. My hair is very tight curls but fine. When it's wet I look like I'm balding. I recently got a job where I need to look professional. I despaired of ever having suitable hair but decided to try Carolyn at East 42nd Street. We talked about what I wanted and frankly, I ...
Read More On Citysearch cmbg 3/25/2009 - Curly-haired girls beware - pretentious attitudes and mediocre cuts aboundI have curly hair. I tried East 42nd for the first time a while ago because they claim to be the place to go for curly hair. I thought the cut was OK and the service was fair (somewhat pretentious and I-know-better-than you) - and I felt extremely rushed. When I scheduled my appointment, I mentioned that my hair often took a long time to cut. They said not to worry (they're "professionals") etc. ...

Read More On Citysearch kelilak 2/8/2009 - Always a great cutI have been going to Teresa's salon, the East 42nd Street Salon, since it actually was on East 42nd street. I have hard hair to cut. It is thick in back, very, very thin at the temples, and wavey, but just on one side. It is also thin and fly away. I had pretty much given up on getting a decent cut - I figured I just had bad hair. And then I went to Teresa. I looked great on my very first...

That is when I noticed the review that someone was unhappy with her cut. So I just wanted to say that I have always been happy with Teresa's cuts, and love her personality. Every time I get a great cut and she makes me laugh. I tell you it is a good combina...
Read More On Citysearch Sundamaged 10/13/2008 - BEST HAIRCUT EVER!!!!! I had tried Ouidad (a curly hair salon in New York) and was not impressed. I have searched for stylist after stylist to cut my hair, and my journey ended at East 42nd Street Salon. I read ALL the review on citysearch and decided to give Teresa a try, and I'm telling you it is the BEST HAIRCUT I've ever had. Teresa really communicated with me and gave me some styling tips that were very helpf...
Read More On Citysearch Croquet 10/13/2008 - Avoid this salon if you want a stylish cutI went to this salon based on the CitySearch positive reviews and the fact that they are promoting themselves as curly hair specialists. I am extremely disappointed in the level of service I received and the results of three haircuts from Teresa, the owner of the salon.
Like many people with naturally curly or wavy hair, it's been a challenge for me to find a stylist who not only loves my hai...

I'm 45, divorced, and have had one LTR since my divorce. Then there was a 2 year hiatus, and then.... I met a hottie fireman. He was so 'well-groomed' (i.e. 'manscaped') that I started to feel self-concious about my unkempt downtown area. Being the otherwise hip and trendy girl that I like to think I am, I decide...

This new method of cutting curly hair is wonderful and Theresa knows just what to do for your hair..after looking at it and asking YOU what you would like.
It will be much easier for me to get there after the road construction is done, but the extra travel time is definitely w...

I have been to this salon twice for haircuts and have left completely satisfied both times. Cheri has done a really great job with cutting and styling my somewhat difficult hair! She listens to how I want my hair styled and then surpasses my expectations. I appreciate her gentle touch, her kind personality and her willingness to take her time while styling my hair (instead of just rushing thr...

I think it's safe to say that they have their receptionists doing nails with no experience. I went there to get a french manicure for my wedding day with my sisters and we had a horrible experience. Our manicurists were Amanda and Laura (I'm pretty sure the onl...

I had been straightening my hair for 35 years ( I'm 50 years old ) and had come to the end of my rope as far as trying to pretend I had staight hair.

My hair is curly and it has been difficult to find a stylist who really knows how to cut my hair. The first time I went in, Carolyn cut my hair and showed me how to care for it. She cut it dry, which was a first for me. But I loved it. The second time I went in, Teresa cut my hair. She cut it wet and the style is just as good as my fi...

The salon is nice and my hair looks good, but the stylist (Carolyn) doesn't really listen to my requests. I've been to her a few times and it's as though she is going to do what she wants to do regardless of what I say because she knows better. I went in for a trim and when I commented on how short it was she said no it's not. If you don't have a haircut in mind when you go in and have an extra h...

I have never gotten so many compliments on my haircut as I have this time around. Even from complete strangers. Angie was a great stylist. She really listens and also gives feed back. Very honest which I appreciate. I'll be back in a few months. See you soon, Angie!
