Bull In The Heather

Truth: Sarah Beth is the reason for this rating.
I haven’t had my hair cut at this salon yet, but I’m following her to this location for a trim and some long bangs for my naturally curly hair. Bangs! If you have curly hair you know that’s usually an impossible request.
Everything other reviewers say about her skills is right on. I’ll add to their comments that she is particularly great at helping you find a cut that’s true to you. Natural, styled, straightened– whatever your routine is Sarah Beth can hone in on what works for your specific texture. Ever feel like you’ve got an untamed beast on your head with a mind of it’s own? You don’t have to fight it. She’ll make you love it.
I’ll cop to the fact that her naturally curly hair was immediately reassuring when I first sat in her chair. She gets it.

I started seeing Kaitlin at her previous salon, and when she told me she was moving I knew I had to follow her. SO glad I did. Bull in the Heather is a gorgeous space, the owners are lovely, and they have a great staff. I felt so comfortable, like I was in someone’s (really stylish) home!
Kaitlin is an AMAZING colorist. As a highlighted blonde I’m really particular and no ones ever done a better job than Kaitlin. She truly listens to her clients and makes you feel super relaxed. Bonus: she’s really fun to chat with and has a great energy about her. She’s become a friend and I can’t recommend her enough; I’m so happy to have found her!

Just so you know, I come here all the way from Boston to see Sarah Beth. I’m talking a 6 hour, chinatown bus trip for this one. No one, NO ONE, has done a better job with my curly hair, and I will follow her to the grave if necessary. Not to mention she is also a really cool, great person who’s fun to talk to, and makes me feel comfortable enough to take risks with my hairstyles (which I never have to regret cause she can literally make anything look good).
Seriously, if you have frizzy, unhappy curly hair like I did, let Sarah Beth whip it into the best shape of your life. She is a miracle worker.

It can be hard to navigate the world of NYC hair salons, but this one is totally a winner. I scheduled an appointment with Sarah Beth on a friend’s recommendation. I have curly hair, and Sarah Beth is a MASTER-​ESS of curly hair. She even helped me take the plunge to add bangs, resulting in the best haircut I’ve ever had. I LOVE this woman, who is not only amazing at sculpting/​taming hair, but is also a lively & sweet person.
Additionally, the salon itself is beautifully decorated and the products they use are amazing. I would 100% recommend Bull in the Heather to anyone looking for an amazing haircut experience in Greenpoint.

I’ve been following Sarah Beth from other salons and she’s the BEST. I always get a bit nervous getting my hair cut but Sarah Beth nails it. I have curly hair and she shapes it up so I leave feeling fierce! Love this lady!
I also had my hair dyed recently by the wonderful Kaitlin. LOVE the color and she was such a doll.
This place is awesome. Go there now.

I followed Sara Beth and Kaitlin from a previous salon. I have been going to Sara Beth for cuts for a year now and she always gets it exactly how I want without me saying much at all. I never had much luck at other places through the years with my thick curls and most have been afraid to attack them. The first time I went she completely nailed it and I have never walked away unhappy! When I wanted to start going blonde from a previous red, she and Kaitlin started me off with baby steps with high lights and I loved it! And when I took the plunge to go platinum I never had to show any pictures to know that Kaitlin would nail it. She is amazing with color and won’t guide you wrong. They take their time and make sure you are satisfied and look your best!

Love this new spot, especially because its in my neighborhood!
Staff are lovely, especially stylist Sarah-​Beth. She has been cutting my hair for a few years now and I’m always so impressed! I’ve had bangs, blunt cuts, bobs – you name it, she is your girl! Such a rockstar! xo

Great! I think this is the first time I’ve ever gotten a cut that I loved in the salon, instead of just figuring out how to style it at home. Wonderful service, you can reserve an appointment through their website, nice space, friendly staff, and I think reasonably priced for the quality you get. Paige did my hair, and she was great; I’ll be back!

Amazing!!!
Tracy has been cutting my hair for a year now, and she’s not only talented… She’s sweet and gives you great hair advice!
She gave me beautiful highlights (never had them before) that blend so well with my hair and skin color, perfection!
Staff is sooo nice and attentive!
Definitely recommend it! I never leave unhappy

I followed Sarah Beth here because she one of the few people that both listen to your goals and advise based on professional experience to give you the look you want.
The location is remodeled and feels friendly; not like the sterility of other places in the area.
I called the day I wanted to get a cut and color and they accommodated me right away! There’s nothing like not having to plan months in advance for your social/​work event life.
The salon also hosts a variety of other events and I look forward to the ~official~ grand opening soon.
I will recommend to anyone and definitively will be back.

Tracy has been cutting & coloring my hair for years so I’m pumped she’s got her own salon now. She’s the best — always has great suggestions for those who are unsure about what they want/​what will look best. She’s helped evolve my style/​cut/​color over the years and I’d highly recommend her to anyone.
The salon is super cute, well designed, very clean — a relaxing experience overall.
Would give 6 stars if it was possible.

As someone who is picky and pretty nervous about getting my haircut, Bull in the Heather exceeded my expectations. Tracy is seriously the best, she is great at color and always recommends the perfect products for my hair type. She is talented beyond belief. Going into the salon makes me feel happy and chic and I leave feeling even better. The décor is beautiful, I wish my apartment looked like Bull in the Heather. I can’t say enough good stuff about this place. Get your hair-​cut here!

Followed Sara Beth who moved here from another salon. She’s the lady you go see if you have curly hair and you want to learn how to love it and work with it. She’s great at what she does. She takes her time and lovingly trims each and every curl family.
The salon is very cute, it stands out in its location. It’s remodeled, all fresh, new, smells nice. Friendly staff.
Thank you guys for a nice experience. I’ll be back to have my curls nurtured :)

Tracy R. is one of the best stylists around. I’ve been using her for years, and was thrilled to get a ‘cut at her new home. Wasn’t disappointed. She’s incredibly professional, and never lets me (or my hair) down. Also: The new salon is spectacular. Comfortable, airy, but still personable. Not cramped at all, and spotlessly clean. Woo! Highly recommended.

I couldn’t say enough amazing things about this salon! Tracy has been doing my hair for years and so I followed her to this new salon when she opened it. First, the actual salon is sooooo cute! The products that they use are amazing (hello Oribe!); everything is clean and decorated beautifully. Then there’s Tracy, who is so fantastic! I go to Tracy for cut and color, and always walk out with amazing looking hair! I trust her so implicitly, sometimes all I’ll say is «I think I want it to be a little shorter…» and she’ll give me the most amazing haircut! We’ve also been lightening my dark brown hair recently, and I get so many complements on my color.
Also, if you’re lucky, Tracy’s super cute dog will be there to hang out with you while you get your hair done!
Couldn’t recommend Bull in the Heather more! Everyone should go here!

There are so many things I love about Bull in the Heather. It’s new so I’ll give you a list as to why you should visit it:
1. Tracy– the owner, who has been my stylist for 6 years. She is great with color and cuts which sometimes is hard to find. I’m an actress so sometimes I need a very specific look and she is great at listening and giving me what I need. Other times when I’m between projects i like to get wild with color and she has given me perfect dye jobs from neon green to rusty rose to a milky lavender.
2. Jill at the front desk– It kinda ruins the whole hair transformation process when you book appointments with someone who would rather be doing anything but talking to you then are rude when you show up. Jill is so helpful and kind, and was really sweet to help me pick a new cut while I was waiting.
3. The salon– it looks amazing and makes you feel like you look amazing when in it. Good lighting– I want to see myself in good lighting when I’m looking in the mirror for an hour!
4. Minoux– Tracy has an adorable puppy who hangs out in the salon sometimes– he will sit by your feet and nap while you’re in the chair. The cutest little thing ever.

Tracy has been doing my hair for years, so when she opened Bull in the Heather, literally around the corner from my house, I was super excited. The place could not be more gorgeous! I went in for color and a cut and, as always, I absolutely love what she did. She is the only stylist, in my 10 years in Brooklyn, who remembers every cowlick and quirk about my hair. She always gives me exactly what I want and listens to every request. Another added bonus is that she carries Oribe products which are hard to find. An excellent addition to the Greenpoint hood for sure!

Tracy has been doing my hair for years so I am so excited that she has opened her own salon. If you want a hairstylist that listens to what your ideas and requests are Tracy is your girl. If you need some advice on what to do with your hair she always has good suggestions, incorporating what you want and making it even better. I am constantly receiving compliments on my hair even long after I’m due for my ombré or a cut.
THANKS TRACY!

I started going to Tracy 2 years ago. Every time I complimented someone’s haircut (both men & women!) they would always say it was by Tracy. After the fifth recommendation, I decided to give Tracy a try and have been loyal ever since.
AND I love Bull in The Heather! The salon has a fresh modern yet inviting design to it and is the perfect location for North Brooklyn.

I have always been the nervous type when it comes to the whole process of hair cut and color. What do we talk about? Do I let them do their own thing or do I show a photo of what I like? Hair is such an important part of who we are, and let’s face it we spend too much money to not leave the salon feeling impeccable.
Tracy has not only made me feel comfortable and confident, but from the moment I met her things were so easy. She’ll take as much time as you need to talk through what you want and what she recommends for you. It’s always a team effort, and by that I mean you know she’s on your team and will have you leaving fresh as ever.
If you’re the type of person who wants a friend, trusted, talented advisor and style muse to cut and color your hair then do yourself a favor and visit. I’m typically not the one to share my holy grails, but seriously, who is the Fashion Editor for Nylon? They need to pay this place a visit.
Always a fun time with great people, and the compliments on my hair literally don’t stop flowing :)
