Studio 78

I walked in with mop of a hair cut and came out looking sharpe. I typically keep my hair a bit long otherwise my hair stands-​up on end. I first thought that my beautician was cutting too much, but it turned out to be a sharpe looking cut. Thanks!

Worst experience ever and that only for a blow out !!!
That made the shampoo a second time after 20 min of blow out on hair not rinse !!!
Please don’t go there !!!

This is the first negative feedback I’ve ever left on this site. But the service/​haircut I experienced here was so bad, I have to caution any girl in their 20’s against going here.
The person who consulted me, the person who washed my hair, and the person who cut it were three different people. What I’m saying is by the time I made it to the chair to tell the person how I wanted it cut, she was looking at my hair sopping wet and didn’t know what it normally looked like.
I came in with a picture and she gave me a cut entirely different than the long bob «trim» I asked for: for reference, I came in with a picture of Alexa Chung’s bob with middle parted bangs. She refused to cut my bangs shorter, saying «my hair wouldn’t do that» — BECAUSE SHE HADNT SEEN IT DRY — and had dried my wet style into a cowlick.
I now have something choppy and short with lots of layers — which she told me to let «grow out». Shouldn’t you cut my hair in a style that doesn’t require me to immediately GROW IT OUT after?!
Also, they only accept tips in cash. I was courteous enough to walk across the street to an ATM to pull out $ for her, despite being extremely dissatisfied with the level of attentiveness that was offered here.
TL;DR: I paid $ 75 for a cut that was nothing like I asked for, and had to go home and trim my bangs myself.

for those whom are looking for Mario here is the information:

UPDATED NOTE to review below: To be fair to Sam (because I really did like my first hair cut with him — it was perfect), I went back a week later on ⁹⁄₂₆ asking him to «lightly texturize» my bangs and ends as he did when he first cut my hair in August. When I arrived, Sam was sitting in his chair playing with his cell phone and not observant of the fact that he had a 10:00 a.m. appointment nor did the receptionist tell him that he had an appt. waiting. I waited 10 mins. and it wasn’t until the owner saw me that Sam knew he had an appt. (I also noticed that the owner made it a point to have a brief chat with Sam about my appt.) Apparently, Sam was insulted by my simple request to just have the ends «lightly texturized». He cut more layers and very unevenly («slicing» into the hair on the left and vertically texturizing on the right) which shortened many layers that I have spent the last year growing out. Sam is very, very unprofessional and unethical. Although I’ve seen clients in his chair, more often than not, it’s empty. I now know why. I don’t recommend Sam to cut anyone’s hair and am very surprised that he’s employed there.
Original Review (2 stars): I regret to write a dissatisfied update to my previous glowing review on Sam. I went back to get my ends and bangs shaped up – no change to my hair style. I really loved how well the previous trim with Sam had grown out. I don’t know what Sam was thinking this time around. I asked for nothing to be changed, only the ends cleaned up (no more than ½″ at the most). He added layers in the front and back that weren’t there before (including shortening some layers) and that I didn’t ask to have added. As far as my bangs, I specifically told him that I just wanted them shaped up and not in my eyes to avoid coming back in 2 weeks to get them shaped up again. Result, bangs are heavy, still in my eyes and cut to be brushed to the side. Also, my hair no longer holds a blow out well nor does it have a nice shape when let dry naturally. It looks very choppy and unbalanced.
In addition, at the time he was cutting my hair, he kept stepping away to give attention to the woman whose hair he was coloring prior to my appointment as well as several times stepping away to correct the junior stylist who was rinsing that customer. This was very annoying, as it was obvious that he wasn’t giving his undivided attention to my hair resulting in this less than ok cut. I’m not sure that I’ll be back especially since I just learned where my previous stylist moved to.
I hope that the owner will take the time to talk to Sam about listening to his customers and organizing his appointments more carefully to be able to give each customer undivided, uninterrupted attention.

I had a circuitous journey to this salon. I ran into a friend and loved her haircut. We have similar hair (I call us «hair challenged» LOL) so was curious to know who did her hair. She referred me to Mario at Studios Fryzura. I headed over to speak to him. He gave me a lot of great advice, ways to improve my look so I decided to take the plunge and drop my stylist and salon of many years. Best thing I ever did, as far as hair goes. It’s a friendly, cozy environment, usually busy. Mario is a wonderful guy, very accommodating and I always end up happy about my style/​color. I also go to Elena for my pedicure and eyebrows. Could not be happier with her: my pedicures actually last to the next appointment. And I don’t know how she does it, but it doesn’t hurt at all to do my eyebrows (waxing or whatever they call it). I think they are competitive with their pricing as far as Brooklyn Heights hair salons. It’s not super cheap, but well worth the price of admission. Since I’ve started going here, I will stay (er, um as long as Mario stays, that is).

like any self-​respecting gay, i love to get my hair did. finding the hairdresser that morphs into one’s own personal «hair stylist» is the dream of anyone who aspires to fabulousness. well, stop the presses, i have found her. and luckily, she’s right in my neighborhood. her name is jane and she is at the studio fryzura in the oh-​so-​becoming-​quite-​trendy brooklyn heights.
to say i have trust issues is, well… putting it mildly. to say i completely trust jane with my hair is, well… the truth ~ hence the contradiction of existence. but you know what? as long as i look good, and i certainly do under jane’s gentle scissors, there’s no stopping a girl. i literally sit in her chair and say do whatever you’d like with my hair. i’m. never. disappointed. and that’s big for me.
jane aside, and that’s no easy task, the rest of the staff at TSF are always friendly and welcoming. it’s very easy to get an appointment within 48 hours. the shampoo gals bring new meaning to conditioning with their massaging fingertips and assorted aromatic hair products, which, by the way, TSF has quite a selection of top of the line products very reasonably priced. they also have mani/​pedis available which really isn’t their main focus and i couldn’t be happier. why’s that? you ask. does any woman really enjoy going to a mani/​pedi place and having to breathe in those toxic fumes for the entire duration of your appointment? yikes! i’d rather wait for the one mani/​pedi lady to free up at fryzura and breathe clean air than enjoy the convenience of multiple mani/​pedi ladies available for all of manhattan’s needy cuticles while both my nails and the ozone take a soak. let’s all do our part against global warming and plan ahead for our mani/​pedis, shall we?
then there’s jane. love her. and love my hair. thusly, love myself. it doesn’t get any better than that!

Mario has been styling, coloring and cutting my hair for the last 11 years. I have seen him work on all types of hair and would recommend him to anyone looking for a hair stylist.

I can’t express how much I love Studio Fryzura in Brooklyn. I’ve been going here for years, even when I was living in Boston and now I come all the way from Queens! The place is very clean and the people are always very kind. If you’re looking for an amazing haircut, Mario is the best in town. He takes his time and is an amazing artist when it comes to cuts and color. He will entertain you and make your hair dazzle :)
You won’t be disappointed when you look in the mirror and you see movie star hair!

$ 90 for Nothing
I’ve made an appointment on my special day and I was expecting a perfect cut.
They usually charge only $ 10 for a bow cut, however since I wanted a finish-​up I’ve taken the $ 60 cut (being nice to the hairdresser lady) The hairdresser finished everything fairly fast, (she also pulled my hair so hard) it looked fine, gave her a good tip ($ 30).
I was happy until my boyfriend saw my hair. we both got pretty upset.
The touch-​up I got at the salon was all gone, my bang turned out to have more and more «Missed cut hair» off the hard-​sprayed set up that I received (so that it didn’t show at the salon)
Had to go through a Serious touch-​up before my event!
Are you kidding me? for $ 90 bucks and not even a decent fringe cut?
This person must think that she’s the only hairdresser in town!
(Finally if you are beautiful, stuff will have some sort of jealousy drama on you)
No professional manner or whatsoever. Ladies, there are plenty other decent salons in this area. don’t waste your time.

Thoroughly recommended. Great service, good prices, nice atmosphere. Jane and Stas are both seriously talented hairdressers, both with color and cut. If you’re tired of over-​priced, over-​hyped, hassly, cramped Manhattan hair salons, it’s worth taking the subway one stop into Brooklyn (it’s just opposite the Clark St. station on the ²⁄₃ line).

Stas is a genius with hair and a wonderful person — meticulous and a perfectionist — the salon is gorgeous — Jane and Ludmila are gorgeous too — I schlep over from Manhattan and sometimes from Miami, as often as I can when I want my hair to look its best for reasonable prices and enjoy the whole experience… well worth every dollar… highly recommend

I go here to get my eye brows waxed. Make sure if you go, you get Elaina — she is AMAZING! Literally does not hurt at all. It almost feels good! Plus she really knows how to shape your brows… a little pricey at $ 16, but worth it. Just call ahead 1^st & make sure she is there!
Minus one star for the fact that they have a $ 20 minimum for credit cards. Their explanation is that they have to pay a fee … well guess what? I have to pay a $ 1.75 fee to use the ATM across the street! Bad policy in my opinion. I can almost understand $ 10 minimums, but $ 20 is slightly ridiculous.

I like this place and have been twice. I’ve had different stylists each time and I can’t remember either of their names. Each time they both cut my hair amazingly and I was able to just call ahead and then walk in. While the cuts were both great the experiences differed.
The first time I had a wash and then an amazing time talking to my stylist. She finished quickly and somehow knew everything about my hair.
The second time I had an amazing wash from this woman who wore crocs and who I felt the need to tip afterward. I can tell I’m not the only fan of her. My cut after this was loooooong and boring but ended up looking good. So it could have been worse.
I’ll be returning in the fall.
