Antonio Prieto Salon

I love how professional and experts they are here. I highly recommend Philip stylist! My hair has so perfect movement and it’s so healthy since him! Love it!

I walked out of the salon at least 10 years younger and much much happier than before I entered!

Beautiful salon. Staff is lovely, and my stylist, Arleen is the best. She is a true artist!

I’m from out of town and needed a blowout for a formal event. Ruth did a great job, gave me exactly what I wanted and was fun to talk to.

Reni did a beautiful job on my coloring. Reni is lovely and she really goes the extra mile to get outstanding results.

Liv was a lovely person and a true professional. She did a wonderful job highlighting my hair!

Just saw Antonio on 8/30. I had been traveling and got a haircut that was not working for me at all. Antonio did not have much to work with and he went shorter than I have worn my hair in a while, But, he restored a great shape to my hair and it works so well. He told me I would like it more in two weeks, but I am enjoying the cut already. Cristo did my color based on the cut and gave me some beautiful strategically placed blonde highlights. They are fun and make the style more interesting! Between the two of them I am so happy!

Antonio today. Another great haircut. Great conversation. So collaborative with you as he works towards your end results. Besides the fact that I feel like he is worth every penny, he is a good person. Always makes you feel appreciated as a customer. I also saw Cristo for color. Cristo does such a good job with color. My hair is difficult to color and often i have had to sit for another round to cover the stubborn grays…. NOT with Cristo. He is the man, makes it happen with one take. Everyone in the salon is warm and inviting. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for a great haircut, maybe some color, excellent product recommendations and consistency. Antonio has been right there for over 20 years! You know he is doing it right.

Got a great haircut today with Philip and received lots of compliments too. Philip asked excellent questions and gave me the haircut I wanted. I would definitely recommend this place and Philip too. 10 out of 10.

Always professional, warm and friendly! Brian is amazing … I love my cut. Usually Lawrence colors my hair and he is fabulous. Today Cristo did my color and he was also wonderful. Thank you to everyone, I feel 10 years younger when I leave Antonio Prieto.

Best haircut in a very long time. Philip is very talented and intuitive.
Another great haircut by Philip! What makes it the cut superior is that I am able style it after I wash it. I have limited blow drying skills and Philip cut my hair with those limitations in mind.
Philip doesn’t disappoint. The haircuts get better and work when I blow dry and when I don’t.

First time visit to salon, Met with Ruth, my stylist, I received a great new cut and style that I love.

Just left the salon today and went in feeling ‘ugh’ and left feeling pampered, spoiled, beautiful and loved! Thank you Antonio, John O, Phillip, Brian (Selden’s hair looks great). My hair is absolutely fabulous! Thank you!

Cristo did an incredible job coloring and highlighting my hair. It is exactly what I wanted! I highly recommend Cristo.

Loved Lawrence for color and Cristo for a blow dry that some how lasted throughout a hot summer day!

I have been a client of Antonio since her arrived in NY - he is a genius stylist and Reni is a superior colorist - the entire team is amazing.

Received an amazing cut from Arleen! She gave so much shape and dimension to my long thick hair without taking off length. Highly recommend!

Phillip took a lot of time and patience to reshape my hair into a manageable style l love.

My cut and color were extraordinary as always AND this time my granddaughter joined me.fantastic!

Philip is an incredible stylist! He was extremely kind and meticulous and gave me one of the best haircuts I've ever had! Highly recommend this wonderful salon.

I got my haircut from Antonio and balayage/color from Reni. What I loved most about the salon was that they leaned into my natural hair texture/shape and enhanced it! You could tell they were both super knowledgable about hair. I felt like I got a custom hairstyle that still felt like me, just 10x better.

Highly recommend this salon if you want a haircut and color with someone who can give you personalized advice and tailor a style that works best for you and your lifestyle. Thanks so much!

I give Antonio Pietro Salon 5 stars
professional, thoughtful and do an amazing job on my hair for dying and cut

I never write reviews, and I was really trying to avoid writing one in this case, but here we are. After a long hiatus, I decided on a whim to treat myself to color. At the recommendation of a friend and after reading a lot of reviews and perusing Instagram, I booked a last-minute appointment with Reni at Antonio Prieto salon for highlights. I was transparent at the beginning of my appointment that I had used boxed dye several months ago and showed a picture of the color I was hoping to achieve. Reni said my hair was too dark and because of that and the box dye, suggested something different, saying we should go "one to two shades lighter. " I agreed. Many hours, multiple comments about how bad it is used to box dye and Pantene shampoo, and $525 later, I had a color I didn't love and wasn't close to what I wanted, but I decided to give myself a few days to see if it it grew on me since it was a big change. It did not, and seemed very inconsistently applied with large patches in spots.

A few days after my appointment I was on Instagram again and happened to open Reni's page in which I saw she shared a post from someone else about the difficulties of lightening dark hair and wrote the following, in her own words, "Reminder to myself to be kind to myself, and this is the reality of removing dark color. I had a client w box dye the other day, & although I know (I know), I lost sleep over her hair. At the end of the process I did not like it. The client did however, but I just beat myself up so much over it bc it's not what I wanted. A moment of transparency and weakness that sometimes I don't like my work, but also even wizards have limits. "

I sent her a message on Instagram and she confirmed she was indeed talking about me. To say this is unprofessional and uncalled for is a major understatement. If she was not confident in what she suggested for my hair when I provided full transparency about my history and routines, why would she allow me to sit there for hours and pay for a very expensive service? This is akin to robbery. It's also a real head-scratcher that an Instagram page primarily used to document her work as a colorist is used to post things about not being able to achieve what she herself said she could do, not to mention it's a major disserve to the salon.

I sent an email with this information to the salon, and Antonio himself prompty called me. Antonio was appalled and apologetic, and did proceed with a full refund as well as made me an appointment with his lead colorist, but he also did not fully offer this service complimentary, instead he gave me the option to pay if I was happy with the color.

Yesterday I realized that Reni blocked me on Instragram. Personally, I couldn't care less; however, I sent another email to the salon to cancel the additional color appointment and ask them to confirm that she is not continuing to post negative statements about me, my hair or this situation. I cannot return to that salon when their employee is so willing to engage in unprofessional, childish, rude, and mean behavior.

If you want to be shamed for box dye and the hair products you use, be humiliated on social media, and pay a lot of money for sub-par color (by the colorist's own admission), then this is the salon for you.
