Hair Throne

Such a great experience working with Bianca! My first time there and I couldn’t have been treated better. She really works with your hair and what you want. The end result is amazing! I can’t wait to see her again!

I found Hair Throne going through Instagram trying to find someone to cut my hair. I had really long hair and was ready to cut it shoulder length and wanted to make sure I found someone I could trust! Looking through Hair Thrones Instagram I noticed Bianca had done the haircuts for the majority of the cuts I liked!
Booking an appointment with her was so easy. All I had to do was text her!
The salon, Ruby 6, was conveniently located near the lower east side. (She will be opening her own salon in Feb. 2016! Cannot wait)
Bianca was so sweet and could tell I was pretty nervous! She gave me her honest opinion about what length to go to and I really appreciated the time.
I highly recommend Bianca if you’re interested in an ‘up to date’ hair style and color! I’m absolutely in love with my hair and have gotten so many compliments.
I will be posting photos of my hair soon!

Bianca is awesome. She first takes time to hear what you are looking for and in my case I had no idea. All I knew is that I wanted to love my hair again. I had been putting it up in a ponytail for months to cover up a bad cut from a Living Social deal. It was a nightmare. Bianca was patient and thorough. She recommended a very subtle trim which made all the difference in the world. She then did magic and I mean MAGIC with the color. I am a brunette who didn’t want to go too light and her mix was perfect! Very subtle but the difference was very obvious. I got two compliments after I left the salon from random strangers and I hadn’t even walked down a block from the salon! Amazing. Highly recommend.

I went to see Bianca Cox for Balayage and Layers. I have Previously went to her for a haircut and color. I am never disappointing leaving the salon. She is so talented, no one else ever touches my hair. She always understands exactly what I am trying to explain of how I would like my hair. I love that she also gives her honest and truthful opinion as a professional. Being in the salon can take hours, but with her it goes by so quick. She is sweet and funny and I always have a good time. I went to her in September and loved my hair, After a month I realize I wanted my hair a littler more brighter and more layers. She always responds to me and I came into the salon and left with hair of perfection. It was exactly what I wanted. I nag her so much about touch ups and if i want to add more color and layers and she is always open and sweet about it. She is a busy lady so If you are planning to do your hair, reach out to her ahead of time. I am absolutely in love with my hair. And I definitely Recommend her. Sorry for the long review but she is Just that AWESOME!

A few things first off, I have thick, long, and black Asian hair that I Japanese straight perm on a yearly basis. Sadly I hadn’t cut it my hair in a different way or dyed it in over 12 – 14 years. The main reason I hadn’t ever put color in my hair was because of all the terrible dye jobs I’ve seen on other people. and I never wanted my hair to look like that. I also have never entrusted a non-​Asian person to touch my hair haha… but OMG Bianca is amazing!
I found her awesome work via instagram (@hairthrone) and contacted her there after reading amazing reviews about her. She fit me in for a last minute consultation since I had no idea what I was doing and then fit me in for an appointment with her soon after. Even with her amazing reviews, I was afraid my balayage would come out unnatural-​looking but it was the complete opposite! She did something that was noticeable but also beautiful and subtle at the same time. I couldn’t help but smile and get excited when I started to see the color for the first time!
You can tell she’s passionate at her job. She takes her time, listens to what you’re envisioning, makes suggestions, and tells you what’s doable and/​or realistic. I only brought one photo to show her but she somehow translated what I was imagining perfectly (I’d suggest bringing photos of what cuts and/​or color work you like or want to achieve). I wish I had better photos in the natural sunlight but I got my haircut and colored in the evening so indoor photos are all I currently have.
She currently has her own chair at Ruby 6, where every stylist is independent and responsible for his or her own clients. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER!

I cannot say enough AMAZING things about Bianca! This chick gets hair color and cuts like no one else in the city. I struggled with finding a colorist who could give me a natural and trendy look for my wavy jet black hair. After an insane amount of trial and error with other stylists, I landed in Bianca’s chair.
She gave me the most gorgeous, ashy brown balayage that is so seamless, blended and on trend, I get soo many compliments from girls with my hair texture and tone. The whole experience from start to finish was perfect, she does a thorough consultation and really listens to understand your vision of your hair. I love the amount of attention she gives to each client and makes the appointment so personal.
I’ve now sent four (!!) other friends to her, all with different hair needs (blondes, redheads, and all different textures) and every single one walked out raving about how much they loved their hair color and the whole Hairthrone experience. We are all hooked, thank you Bianca!

Bianca is the real deal — she takes the time to consult with you, asks great questions and tells you honestly if what you’re aiming for will work for your hair. For inspiration photos follower her on IG — I’ve followed her since she was at her former salon. Her color skills are top notch. She’s honest, won’t recommend something for your hair if it’s not good for it and you literally step off her chair (throne) feeling and looking fab!

When I first started my hair journey, I researched the process that I wanted, then the best salons and in the end it all came down to the stylist. I found Bianca’s instagram first (@hairthrone) and loved her work, I also checked out her reviews and everyone raved about her, I then attempted to make an appointment with her and while it wasn’t too bad it was a wait, I was ready to see what all the hype was about.
Bianca did not disappoint. I tried to be as prepared as I could be so I wasn’t that girl sitting in the chair who wanted something different but didn’t know exactly what. I still wasn’t as prepared. Bianca took the time and had the patience with me so I understood exactly what I was asking for and the difference between white blonde, ashy blonde etc., she helped me figure out the placement of the color.(My recommendation is to take pictures of what you’re looking to get to show her) It’s worth mentioning I also have super dark brunette hair, the only process I’ve ever done is ombré at the bottom because in my mind if I hated it I could chop it off and not have caused damage to my hair. The very first time I sat in Bianca’s chair I was hesitant about how light I wanted to go. She assured me that if I didn’t like it we could fix it.
Bianca did not disappoint. I have now seen her 4 times since last year. Each and every time she blows my mind. I am so comfortable with her where I have no hesitations with her touching my hair. This last time we laughed at the fact that I was so weary of going light the 1^st time and now I sit down and let her do her thing. I should also mention that she’s taken me from a dark brunette to a blonde. She has done it in the safest and least damaging way to my hair as well. Thats extremely important. My hair feels great and I get non stop compliments.
Don’t forget to take her pictures of what you want. If she recommends a product for your hair, get it. She can only do so much, you have to maintain it to keep it healthy and looking great.
Book with Bianca. She is honest, and will always keep it real with you and did I mention she’s super talented? Even if you have to wait a bit longer than you wanted to, I promise you she’s worth the wait. The anticipation will build and she’ll deliver.

By far the best haircut and overall experience I have had with a hairstylist. I really can’t express how happy i am with the cut! Bianca was extremely helpful when suggesting what route we should go for my cut but wasn’t pushy when I wanted to keep most of my length. She was so pleasant to be around and I booked my color before leaving! Bianca is so great at what she does. I can’t wait to head back in October!

I’ve been to countless hair stylists in the past but as I told Bianca, I’ve never experienced a haircut the way she did. She is amazing! Her technique and style is unique and you really know she understands what you want and BOY CAN SHE DELIVER! I went in for a «bob-​like» hair cut, told her what I want and what I didn’t want and it was all in her hands after that. She recommended products for me to try out and I can’t not thank her enough! She’s a must try (I already told all my friends about her) and if you’re still not convinced sto try her out I mean you clearly don’t want beautiful hair! I am going back for color next month and can’t wait! Thanks again Bianca :)

Bianca is the best! Very professional, talented, meticulous, and sweet. I’ve lived in NYC my whole life and have been through my fair share of stylists. Bianca is extremely knowledgable about current trends but she also listens to what you want. She’s a gem in the vast sea that is the NYC hair scene.

No one does balyage like Bianca! She is the best!!! After the first appointment I had with her last year I haven’t let anyone else color my hair. She’s always so thorough with my consultation and understands the look that I want. Thank you for my amazing results Bianca!

Let me start off by saying that I have never stuck with a hairstylist consistently before. Finding Bianca has been such a blessing to my hair. I’ve been to her three times now and after the most recent visit, she truly achieved my dream hair! The color is everything that I had been asking for and more, because she didn’t just take the picture I had shown her and say she would replicate it, but she was real with me and took the time to explain that the color I wanted (ash brown with a violetness) would be unique to me because not all hair is going to look exactly the same. I’ve learned that everyone’s hair reacts differently and produces its own color essentially, which is cool because in the end I think what I got suits me amazingly. She’s a total sweetheart and is also so willing to answer any questions you might have about the process being done to your hair. I’m a very curious person so I really appreciated learning about what was actually going on when I got my balayage.
Overall, I can honestly say every time I come in to see Bianca and sit in her chair, I have full trust in her. Which is saying a lot because I’ve had more than my fair share in the past of bad and lackluster experiences elsewhere.

Bianca is a rare talent who you can trust to translate your vision into beautiful hair — she is a color and cut expert! I recommend her wholeheartedly. She is an artist who gets it right every time and is super lovely too! We are super lucky to have her in New York!

I had such a wonderful experience with Bianca and I’m SO happy I found her! She gave me her undivided attention to really understand what I wanted and gave me her input of what would be best which I really appreciated. It is clear she is very knowledgable on what colors look best and how the color will evolve overtime. Her personality made the whole day even better, she truly is a sweetheart and I can’t see myself going anywhere else. I fully trusted her advice and she delivered! You will not go wrong by booking with her for beautiful hair :)

Bianca you’re the best!!!
Thank you for making me look amazing!
Bianca has a talent. I tried to lighten my hair for years. I used to have a semi-​permanent darkest brown hair color that looked like black. It looked very boring and I wanted to make it more fun. I’ve been to a lot of stylists/​colorist that damaged my hair with bleach. I’m obsessed with my hair and I like to invest into the best products and hair salons but when I met Bianca she transformed my hair into beautiful, shiny, healthy looking hair again. I’m so happy with my results and from now on I won’t even let anyone to touch my hair again. You will thank her once she transforms your hair! Oh, and she is an awesome person, very sweet with a good heart.

Bianca is a true artist who will work with you to get you exactly what you want while being realistic about expectations (i.e. not realistic to bring in a picture of Kim Kardashian’s blonde hair if you have jet black hair!!!). After trying out many different stylists throughout the city (and leaving disappointed at many), I will never let anyone else touch my hair. Not only is she a wizard at balayage, she’s also a master at cutting and will give you something that is customized to your face shape and overall look.
She’s also the consummate professional and works so hard. I love how fast she is at getting back to me about appointments.
Bianca is currently located in Salon Orchard, which is a cute little salon in the LES.
Book with her now! But don’t steal my appointments ;)

Bianca is honestly the best thing that has ever happened to my hair. When I first came to her I had the worst foil highlights you’ve ever seen. Now I have a beautiful ombré and it’s all thanks to her. For the record, this is the same Bianca who worked at Fox and Jane, but now operates under «hair throne.» She is a miracle worker! Also, she’s the coolest, the perfect blend of professionalism without being stuffy. I almost don’t want to suggest her because I want to keep her all to myself, but she deserves the shout out. I really cannot say enough awesome things about her!

I can’t say enough good things about Bianca. She has resurrected my hair. I will never let anyone else touch my hair again!
When I first moved to NYC, I had the hardest time finding someone I could trust with my hair. After getting several «blah» hair cuts and horrifying color and color corrections, I finally found Bianca.
I have been seeing her for several months and from the first appointment she revived my hair which was looking thin, dull, and damaged. I felt like a new person with such a simple but beautiful haircut. After so many bad hair experiences in the past, I went in without very high expectations so I wouldn’t be disappointed, but Bianca gave me a cut that surpassed my highest expectations. For the first time in YEARS, I actually loved my hair. The best thing about Bianca is she spends time just talking to you about what you want. I really love that you can tell she is listening and then you can just sit back and enjoy the rest of the experience. She did exactly what I wanted and then took it one step beyond to give me beautiful dimension and a cut that flattered the shape of my face. She is a true artist.
I have also been back to have Bianca color my hair. She is still working around my old color but she manages to make the old disaster look amazing somehow. Even though I am moving to Boston, I am going to see Bianca every time I come back to NYC.
Bianca also has amazing product suggestions. She knows what your hair needs and will never push anything on you that isn’t exactly right.
