Upon entering the salon, I was greeted immediately and offered cucumber infused water. Everyone was friendly, and polite. I met with Julie, who was to be colorist. She was pleasant, and seemed tuned in to what result I wanted. After deciding wh...

I was so afraid of what someone new would do with it that I kept putting off finding another stylist. Finally, my hair had grown completely unmanageable and I asked a friend for a recommendation, and she suggested Robert. I went in without an appointment, just to meet him. He greeted me warmly, focusing...

Read More On Citysearch julie starchild 2/9/2010 - averageI've been going to this salon regularly for about 5 years, and had several different stylists. All were great at first. I have medium length hair with a moderate amount of layering. It seems that once I achieve the most flattering haircut, no stylist is able to maintain it over time. They eventually end up doing something different when I don't ask them too. After about a year of consistency...
Read More On Citysearch uglybob 1/24/2010 - Really not consistentA half dozen times, I've asked the receptionist if they could book me a "good" stylist for a cut or color, and I have been incredibly disappointed every time. I had an awful haircut by a woman (who has since left). In fact, the cut was so bad that even Robert acknowledged it when he tried to fix it (not successfully). Then I had highlights with some young guy who seemed like he had been hired the...

Read More On Citysearch abreck1 12/1/2009 - The absolute bestRobert Stuart Salon is by far the best salon in NYC. Robert along with his employees are very attentive to your hair needs and work hard to deliver the best results. Everytime I walk out of the Robert Stuart Salon I am constantly getting compliments on my hair... believe me if you don't give this place a chance you will seriously be missing out!
Read More On Citysearch JrGirl 11/13/2009 - Great salon overallI have been going here for 2 years now and have always had a great experience with Robert and the whole atmosphere. He discusses what you want and everything he's going to do beforehand and even options for future cuts. I always walk out loving my hair. On my budget, Robert's a splurge. But with hair and shoes, you don't mess around with bargains.

I don't have an explanation, but I can say the stylists here vary widely in skill level and experience. After my first stylist left I had a few disappointing cuts from people who are no longer there. I stuck with the place because of convenience and ended up with Lily and my hair has never looked better. She gives gr...

I arrived at my appointment and I was greeted with wide smiles. I thought, this is going to be an excellent experience! My stylist (I don't even remember his name) was so very impersonal, however! This is a major turnoff to me. He said he was "focused on the cut." So I could not wait to see my new fab. cut. Well, once he blew it out and I told him it still felt heavy in places, he did not cut it ...

Tons of people complimented me on my hairstyle after I had it done here. Would go back in a NY minute!

They listen to you, and combine that with their many years of experience to meet your exact needs at the highest level. And to top that, each staff member is not only professional, but extremely warm and gracious. I've tried a number of high-end salons in NYC, and Robert Stuart Salon has, by far, done the best job with my hair. It is, as always, a pleasur...

Thank you!
Read More On Citysearch rkpapa 7/15/2009 - great service, calm atmosphereI loved Lily, who made my frizzy, curly hair straight and shiny, even on a humid NYC summer day. I also like that the salon does not feel overly stuffy - it's relaxed, calm, and friendly.
Read More On Citysearch zoeabbymom 6/23/2009 - way overratedthe stylists here are really really lacking. At best they are average and way overated and overpriced for what this place charges. I felt like it was her first haircut and Robert made her practice on my head.
never going back.

Robert restyled our cuts, improving them considerably, and my wife's color has been consistently attractive and realistic. The store is small and friendly; they stay pretty close to schedule without sparing the time to do a good job; and the price is fair and affordable. Highly recommended.

After having been kept waiting for 30 minutes, I asked Robert for 2-3 inches to be trimmed from my hair and ended up with 3 inches from one side and 5 from the other. When I went back for my hair to be fixed, Robert then took off 3 inches off the longer side, making it uneven on the other...

I say this as a 30 year old guy who was tired of the rough $15 cuts I used to get from old fashioned barber shops. I went to Robert 5 years ago to fix a haircut I got from one of those barbers and have been going ever since. Whether you want a conservative men's cut or something more edgy, Robert can do it.

Read More On Citysearch missshushu 7/29/2006 - One of the best hair experiences I've ever had! OUTSTANDING with Curly, frizz prone hair! My hair is curly, frizz prone and long - and was in DESPERATE need of a good shaping. I tripped over the salon while walking along the Upper West - and honestly? I cannot believe my good fortune. The salon looks great inside, but I had no expectations, as you just never know and my hair can be tricky.... Let me just say - UNBELIEVABLE. One of the best hair cuts and styles I've had in YEARS...

It was expensive at $95 for a haircut, but he knows what he's doing. The space is rather small and cramped though.

Finally, I have found my "regular" salon in Robert Stuart Salon. Scheduling my appointment was easy, my stylist (Mary) was friendly, my haircut and style look great, and the price was reasonable. I recommend it highly!

I had been procrastinating going to a salon for a while since I'm never really 100% happy with the end results. However, Jordan made me feel at ease. He listened to what I wanted from the cut. And I felt from the start that he knew what he was doing. I left the salon with beautiful blo...

Read More On Citysearch mirandast47 4/27/2006 - "Sorry, man."That's what Robert said to me after he completely destroyed my hair. I had been growing it for about 9 months, and before I knew it, Robert -- contrary to my instructions -- had chopped it all off. I'd like to believe there was some thought to the style, but, in my heart, I know he just wasn't paying attention.
He's a nice guy, but be careful.

I've been there 6 or 7 times and every time I went I had someone different do my hair (all of which were nice and capable) my question is this...why is there such a turnover in staff?? the only thing constant ...
Read More On Citysearch justsusan123 4/22/2006 - an oasis among NY salons!Robert is an artist without the usual New York pretension. He listens in a way few salon owners I've encountered do. Both my girlfriend (color, styling) and I (cuts) swear by the salon. In fact, I'm planning a move to Toronto and haven't yet figured out how I'm going to get back to NYC regularly to get my hair cut!
Read More On Citysearch jakeklis 4/18/2006 - Best Haircut EverI have never been so consistently thrilled with my haircuts! Robert and his staff make you feel comfortable and really listen to what you are looking for and will give advice when you ask for it. I live outside NYC and drive 25 miles for Robert's haircuts - I would drive 100 miles if I needed to. I don't plan to get my haircut anywhere else for a very, very long time.

For much of my work life, I am at events where I need to look my best in front of clients and in the media. In that time Robert and his colorists have consistently given me the best haircare of my life. From the precision and ease of care of Robert's cuts, to the evolution of my haircolor, there is no better place to be. "Everyone knows your name"...

I had not cut my long and very thick, rather unruly hair in a year and I can honestly say he gave me one of the best cuts I've ever had in my life. He seemed to intuit my needs and understood exactly what I wanted, even though I wasn't entirely sure what that ...
Read More On Citysearch complicite 2/26/2006 - Best haircut worth the money!I have finally had a great hair cut. Lilley really knew exactly how to cut my hair the way I wanted it and the way to compliment my face. She used multiple ways of layering my hair. Other places in NY charge $80-130 for a haircut and you can get that kind of cut for just $55. The staff was very professional and very nice. I have finally found a hair stylist!

I would avoid getting your hair cut by Robert, though-- he is more expensive and so worried about what's going on in his salon that he barely looks at your hair as he's cutting. He's nice enough and I love his salon, but don't waste your $$. The other stylists are great, but there is SUCH a fast turn-...
