  3. Amazing!
    I tried Luba's for the first time this week after spending months searching for a new stylist. I'm so happy I did! Arthur did an absolutely fantastic job, giving me beautiful, natural-looking color and definitely one of , if not the best ,haircuts I've ever had!! He was very professional, really understood what I was looking for and gave me some helpful advice on how to care for my hair,...

  4. Best Blow Dry in New York City!
    I first found Luba's Salon by accident after I was coming out of the Equinox gym on 63rd street and Lexington Avenue. I needed a quick blow dry, and my usual place was booked. I noticed a sign for Luba's Salon and decided to try it, so I walked up to the salon which is located on the second floor. There I was greeted by a very nice stylist named Arthur. After a wonderful head massage and hair wa...

  5. Amazing cuts and color!
    I am so grateful to my friend for recommending Arthur at Luba's Salon for my cut and color! Arthur is extremely talented. I always know I will love my color and that my cut will continue to look good, even as my hair grows. I moved to the suburbs two years ago, but I still travel into NYC to have Arthur work his magic!

  6. Great salon and stylist!
    I moved to New York and was in need of a new hairstylist. After researching several salons on Citysearch, I decided to try Arthur at Luba's Salon. I am so glad I did. My cut and color was beautiful. The color was shiny and natural and my hair fell effortlessly into place. I never knew what a great haircut was until Arthur cut my hair. For the past five years, all of my cuts and highlights b...

  7. Consistently great cuts and color
    I have been going to Luba's for over 5 years, specifically to Arthur. His cuts and color are consistently the best I've had in my life. When I first went to him, my wavy/curly hair was limp and unmanageable and he gave it life again. Every time I leave Luba's I feel like a million bucks.

  8. The best hairdressing salon in the world!!!
    I am from Gibraltar and lived in NY for 2 years. During my stay here I read a couple of beauty magazines and came across Louis Licari Hairdressing salon and much to my disappointment it wasn't as amazing as magazines described. A friend of mine then recommended Luba's Salon so I arranged an appointment. It was the best thing I did, not only because of their professionalism and the way they did ...

  9. Great color!
    Arthur knows blond - dark blond, light blond, anything in between. I have been going to this salon for nearly 10 years and continue to be thrilled with the color, regardless of whether I want to go darker or lighter. Arthur and the team will take time and care to make sure you get the service and the look you want. And a great value for your money!

  11. Best haircut in NYC!
    I lived in NYC for 6 years and for the first few years before I found Arthur, I was going to one salon after another paying a lot of $ for a haircut and always leaving disappointed. I have long, straight, fine hair and not many people know how to cut it in a way to keep its shape, volume, etc. What usually happened is that 99% of the hairstylists tried to convince me that I need to cut my hair ...

  12. Couldn't love the look more
    Prior to this experience, I remember complaining about my hair to my friend Sarah, who also lived a few blocks away from Luba Salon, about how brassy my blond hair had become from a botched color job earlier. She promised to walk with me in the neighborhood until we found someone who would make it better, thinking I had already tried a good number of great salons -- why not walk around? We stop...

  13. The Best Hairdresser in the World
    It's a family affair and what a friendly, joyous setting. Newly Renovated Second floor Suite Style Salon that offers the very best in cut, color, styling for the whole family. Love your hair, the Luba way! Before I found this gem of a Salon, I wandered aimlessly about hairdresser's who would chop off more than I bargained for. Not here. You name the cut, color and style and Luba or her marv...

  14. GREAT PLACE with a great eye for color and cutting!
    i have been going to luba's for 4 years now and i love my hair each and every time i come out of there. the color is always perfect and compliment getting.

  15. GREAT salon & stylist!
    I visited NY on business and needed a haircut while there. I made an appt with Luba but was late for my appt. They were very understanding and Arthur did my hair. He did a great job! Now, I am spoiled by him and can't find another stylist that did my hair like him! I have long hair (mid back) and when he did my hair I never had to do anything with it - once it was dry it looked great with the lay...

  16. Best salon in NY
    I've been going to Luba Salon for about 4 years now and would never think of going anywhere else to have my hair done. The first time I went, Luba cut my hair and did a great job. I have rather unruly hair and never had good luck with other stylists. Luba listened to my concerns, suggested some things to me, and we agreed on a new style, which looked great! I have gone back ever since and alw...

  17. It doesn't get any better than this!
    Since my first visit with Arthur several years ago, I have never even thought of letting anyone else touch my hair. Even when I lived quite far away for a couple years, I still traveled back regularly to have him do my hair. As my natural color has changed, Arthur has been able to adapt to always make it look naturally blonde, which is great. And his cuts have gotten better and better over the...

  18. Luba's
    Luba's is a great family run hair salon in mid-town. It's not at all busy, noisy or annoying. They are flexible and always willing to accommodate. They have a unique approach as they run their salon more as if they're servicing clients rather than random customers therefore it is more customized and the quality of service is much higher than what you would find elsewhere. This of course means pay...

  19. Arthur is amazing!!
    I booked an appointment with Arthur after reading reviews here, and was not disappointed. Arthue gave me exactly what I wanted and yet added his own touch to my hair!! I have thick, dark, medium long hair, and I was nervous about getting a cut because I am growing my hair. Arthur listened to me and gave me one of the best haircuts I have had!! And that too without chopping off a big chunk like ev...

  20. Looking for a great haircut? Go to Luba's Salon!
    This is the second time that I have gone to Luba's Salon. After the first time I knew that I couldn't go anywhere else. Arthur and Stanley are great. They make sure you get what you want and that you are completely satisfied. They make the perfect team and you won't be bored because of the friendly and comfortable atmosphere they create. I have gone to many hairdressers in several countries but ...

  21. Only a few complaints
    Great Cut & Color, no question! However, it set me back about $450 and 4 1/2 hours in the chair bored, hungry & very little hospitality (one cold cup of coffee). Arthur does a terrific job. I guess I just had to be a little pushier about being treated like I was spending the money I spent.

  22. a gem!
    definitely go to luba's - it is a real gem! the place is family-owned which makes for a comfortable atmosphere. arthur listens to your preferences, asks questions, and then proceeds to create a masterpiece. there are several salons in my trendy area of manhattan but this place is worth the walk. i am looking forward to next visit which will be soon!!

  23. Great Hair Stylist
    I was visiting NY and saw the reviews for this salon. They were all that and more. I am very picky when it comes to my long thick hair. I had my appt with Luba but was late due to traffic. They still fit me in. Luba started on me and then when her next appt showed up she asked if I minded if Arthur finished it. He was her son and she had trained him. I did not - he listened very well and did a GR...

  24. Great color
    Went to Luba's yesterday for my first time and it wont be the last. After trying several stylists in NY and queens, Arthur gave me the exact shade of blonde I wanted. Didnt even have to bring in a picture from one of those hair magazines. He gave me his full attention for 3 hours and he didnt rush. No customer juggling!!He spent atleast 15 mintues going over what I wanted (even after being 35 min...

  25. Halloween TREAT!!
    I had an appointment to see Arthur on Halloween (looking pretty scary with my hair in a ponytail I might add) and came out just thrilled with the cut he gave me. Without much instruction other than "keep it on the long side, but please do SOMETHING with it because it's driving me nuts!," Arthur went to work and soon thereafter, I had the best cut I've had in years. Thanks Arthur! I now have a ...

    If I could write EVERYTHING I wanted to say about my experience at Lubas, you would be here forever reading what Ive wrote instead of picking up the phone and calling to set up an appointment. I was lucky enough to get a cut from Stanley who is AMAZING! Not only is he SO SO SO sweet and patient, he SO SO SO talented and skilled. He gave me THE BEST cut I have ever gotten, and it is beautif...

    This was my first haircut experience in NYC; I was always a little intimidated by the salons here (and especially their prices!). Luba's had gotten wonderful reviews on citysearch, so I decided to try them out. I was not disappointed at all!!! The atmosphere is very relaxed. And Arthur, who cut my hair, gave me probably the best haircut I've ever gotten! He was so friendly, and took as much time ...

  29. The Best Place to go in NYC
    I love this salon! The first time I went there, I was having color correction done (from a bad salon I had gone to in NJ). Arthur, the stylist I had, was awesome and didn't rush the process even though I couldn't get there until close to closing. I ended up keeping him there for over 2 hours after closing (I have long hair and it needed a lot of correction), but he never once made me feel unwe...

    Stanley was great!! I've tried for years other treatments and procedures that never seemed to work for the long term. My hair is (was) very curly about mid back length. A friend had recommended Luba's Salon who has her hair cut by Luba herself. She mentioned about there success in Japanese Hair Straightening and that I go for a consultation with Frank or Stanley (brothers) about this. Let me tell...

    Getting my hair done at lubas salon was the best choice I have ever made. Stan knew exactly what I wanted. He gave me a beautiful haircut, added some highlights and did a terrific job at straightning my hair. Now whenever I need my hair done I know where to go.

  33. What Can I Say!!!!!
    I first found Luba's in a book at my hotel and I loved the change she made with my hair. This was the first time I walked out of a salon really liking how my hair looked. I simply cannot fix my own hair and Luba patiently put the dryer and brush in my hands and showed me how to do it myself. "Hairstyling 101" she called it. And I passed. I live in Colorado and make it in to NY several times ...

  34. Perfection
    Don't think twice about it. Just go! Every haircut I receive from Arthur is like the three-days-before-my-wedding haircut. He takes his time and makes sure that every single hair on my head is perfect and the overall cut looks great. I come in from NJ just to get my haircut here because I cannot the attention to detail that I get from Arthur at this salon anywhere else.

    What more do you want? Coffee? Ok, that too. Ive been to many NY salons, but this is the only one Ive recommended. The appointment was on time (!), the atmosphere relaxed and friendly.

    I just had my hair cut at Luba's and the experience was a real treat. The salon has terrific atmosphere-- clean, friendly, and welcoming. I have short hair that is a bit difficult to cut well, and Arthur, the gentleman who styled my hair, spent a good deal of time talking with me prior to cutting a single hair.

    Living in Boston, I treat myself to having my hair done in NYC while in town. I always went to the same person, but not regularly due to average results.

    For the last 13 years Luba has been doing my high and low lights. My hair has always looked beautiful and natural even as it is growing out. Invariably, when I have had to go to another hair dresser for a quick trim, I'm asked "who does your color, it's gorgeous. Other women have asked what I do to keep my hair so healthy and shiny with coloring and all I say is "I go to Luba." Also it's great...

    One Saturday about 3 years ago my former hairstylist from the Oscar Blandi salon has refused to take me after I was late 15 minutes for my appointment. As I had a fundraiser to go to, I desperately needed help with my wavy hair. It was about 6 pm or so, and every single salon I would call, would refuse to take me without an apoint. In total desperation I walked up on Lex and saw Luba's salon. ...

    If you want the best in color, cut, japanese straightening - or any of the newest, up-to-date methods of hair styling, go to Luba's. There's no one better. She and her two sons, Stanley and Arthur, not only give you the best hair cut, but there are no better stylists to color your hair. I will go to no other salon in New York.
