I thought I was brilliant giving my friend a Kindle so that she could read whatever she wanted whenever she wanted.
However, I received an envelope with cash and a John Sahag business card with Gabriel's name.

I've had cuts that I liked while in the salon, but the next day my hair is just as unruly as before. After having it cut at Sahag, I don't even need to style my hair - it just falls into place.

With each new and revolutionary way of cutting, I have suffered at the hands and scissors of so-called experts. I gave up and just let my hair grow out.
A friend told me about a remarkably calm and unaffected stylist at Sahag. I marveled at my friend's new hair style-it was chic, sleek and truly brought out he...
Read More On Citysearch onlyinnyc 1/27/2007 - A True Scissor WizardI have lived in NYC all my life and only when I was a teenager did I have a hairdresser that I adored.
Here I am in my late thirties and have finally found my true scissor soul mate. I read about Gabriel here on Citysearch and after looking at the Sahag website, decided to give him a try. I don't think that I have had any unique hairstyle for the last decade but thanks to him, now I do. He as...

Leonedis took me for my wash and dry and then I was directed to his chair for my cut. Gabriel has been there for 8 years and he was terrific. He took time, explained what and why he was doing. He never rushed or let me feel as though I wasnt very important. He was a master at cutting and even though his ...

very weary of them, but I've been sporting them ever since... and all the guys are after me now! She gives the best advice & she is my fashion muse. Very inspiring and warm.

(I know that sounds ridiculous, but it's true.) I wouldn't consider going anywhere else in Manhattan from now on. Watching the other stylists do their magic as well was a treat.

I have been going to her for a few years now and have converted many of my out of town friends to coming all the way to NYC to go to her. $150 is a lot for a hair cut, but you get what you pay for. Def give it a try.
Read More On Citysearch evb317 2/22/2006 - All about the colorWith the salon's hair-to-go clips, their chic clear glosses, and sharp cuts using the dry-cut technique I am always delighted with my absolutely suberb treatments. The ambiance is extremely comforting and tranquil, almost spiritual even with its bamboo and elegant earthly decor. Santino, the head of color is the most attentive colorist, explaining every aspect of the process thoroughly, and he'...
Read More On Citysearch dlerious 2/7/2006 - Terrific Salon.This salon and its services are consistently excellent, after trying numerous luxury salons and always leaving with a cut that never lived up to the price tag I finally found Raphael at John Sahag. His cuts are brilliant, I can go months without a trim because of his ability to cut hair that grows out perfectly. In addition, the location is incredibly convenient and the atmosphere friendly and pr...

I can't tell you how rude the people who worked there were. It started off with a rude lady at the desk. I walked out and would never go back. I could care less how good they cut hair. They, especially John Sahag, should teach his staff how to act to everyone who comes into the salon, not just the rich and famous.
Read More On Citysearch Citysearch User 7/2/2005 - Terrible, TerribleWithout a doubt had the single worst haircut of my life at this place. Had read about this place the world over and so while in NY on business I tried it out. I got a stylist who was completely rude to me, cut off 3 inches more than I asked him to, when I asked him to stop cutting so much, he practically told me to shut up. I almost cried in the chair. I ended up not paying for the cut, the s...
Read More On Citysearch Citysearch User 3/30/2005 - love it!i have gotten my hair cut by the same girl the three times i have been there. i love it!!! unlike many other salons, at john sahog they "drycut" your hair, meaning that they wash and blow your hair out first THEN cut it. i think that by doing so, your cut is of better quality. i totally love my hair and the atmosphere is great!
