  17. worst haircut ever
    Langa cut my straight hair in about three minutes and it looks just like a haircut that took three minutes. It's totally uneven EVERYWHERE! While she cut my hair I had to listen to a sales pitch for the spa upstairs. Maybe if she concentrated on my hair it would have looked better, but probably not.

  18. They know how to treat you right
    I have been going to Angie for about 2 years now. She is a sweet, nice person who takes pride in her work. She always treats me very well. She is great at hair coloring and styling. She doesn't rush and you leave feeling and looking like a Queen. Thanks Angie for all you do!

  20. Looking for a Great Stylist?
    Robert is my stylist. When I first went to Spectrym, wasn't sure what to expect. Well, Robert is a consummate professional who inspires confidence. I know that whatever he does will flatter my face and fit my hair type. The color and highlights always look great and I get lots of compliments. He only does what I want but always offers suggestions when I ask. Just got a Bob cut and It lo...

  21. Robert is awesome!!
    I just got my hair highlighted for the first time with Robert and he did an amazing job! i was really nervous, and didnt like how it came out at first and he darkened the color for me just how i wanted it--he went above and beyond to make sure i was satisfied. He also gave me a really nice cut. I have super curly hair and he worked so hard to blowdry it straight and didnt miss a single hair. aw...

  22. Best highlights, Excellent haircut
    I've been getting my highlights from Nannette for over five years. She really is a genius at this. When i started going I had black hair with a few layers of bleach under (no joke, three at least), some red and probably brown too. She saved my hair and helped me grow it out and still look amazing. She is always good at suggesting color but won't let you do whatever it is you think would look g...

  23. Nigel + Spectrym = Hair style heaven
    I have gotten my hair cut a few times by Nigel...and now I won't go any where else!! He is the best. He cuts my hair awesome and is so much fun to talk to. Nigel is a huge asset to Spectrym and I am so happy to have found him. It is so hard to find someone that is willing to cut your hair exactly how you want it and even if you don't know what will look "best"...he still make it look slammin'...

  26. THE COLOR IS EXACTLY WHAT I ASKED FOR!
    I love my hair. Inna did a beautiful job on the color. I wanted my hair to look refined and classy and natural and Inna gave me exactly what I asked for. I get compliments on it everywhere I go and let me tell you, when you're in your 50s and overweight, it feels great. I feel so lucky that I found Spectrym and I highly reccommend them. I live in Queens but the Austrin Street salon has a Manhatta...

    I have been going to Nanette for over 10 years. I moved to Long Island about 5 years ago and everyone keeps asking me why I travel all the way to Queens to get my hair done.

She helped me decide just the right ...

Prior to going to Spectrym i always went home to LI to get a haircut but with high gas prices and even more traffic it was no longer an option. They gave me a grea...

  33. Best bob haircut with Robert!!!
    I had the best experience at Spectrym! I decided it was time for a change and saw all of the great reviews about Robert on Citysearch. The pleasant experience started with the super-convenient online appointment scheduling. Once I got to the salon, I hardly waited before my hair was washed. Then, I talked to Robert about what I wanted. I've had a bob for the last 10 years and we discussed ho...

  35. Nannette Saved my Hair
    I went to Spectrum three weeks ago with one goal. To fix my badly colored, dry and overprocessed hair. I had previously gone to salons in the city and had always been disappointed by their results. After visiting Spectrum my hair is finally on the road to recovery. Nannette discussed the proper action that we needed to take to repair my hair. I came out of the salon with a beautiful hair colo...

  36. Great Beauty Salon
    My daughter lives in Forest Hills and I was visiting her and desperately needed a haircut. She recommended Robert to me. I was a little nervous about getting my hair cut by someone I didn't know, but I bit the bullet and made an appointment. I love my haircut - Robert is a perfectionist and I am just delighted. I will be making to the trip to Robert for my next haircut.

  38. Perfect!
    I live in LA and work in NY. Needed a haircut and found Spectrym on citysearch. I'm very neurotic about my hair to the point of measuring it. Got an appt w/ Robert. He gave me a perfect stacked bob. He took his time and was very precise. I even waited a week to write this review just to make sure it still looked good. Thanks Robert!

    I was in Forest Hills the other day walking along Austin Street, feeling a bit under the weather, and stopping in front of Spectrym, I thought that a facial was the exact thing I needed to boost my moral. Glad that I came into that salon, thanks above all to a wonderful lady named Helen, who used her amazing hands so skilfully on my face. Trust me, that facial is really an experience. Besides, th...

    I have been going to Spectrym for about a year now and always coming back for my favorite esthetician Angela. She does a marvelous job on my face and I am always happy with a result, especially several days later when my skin feels very smooth. She is also excellent with massages and waxing and advised me on what sort of products I should be using for my skin type (without being pushy about selli...

    What is so great about this place? 1) It's not a hole-in-the-wall as a lot of the places in Queens have been that I had encountered previously. 2) Service is great and they are right on time! 3) The stylist will do 'what you want', offer you something to drink or eat AND get you a magazine. This may not sound like much, but when it comes to Customer Service, this place definitely does...
