Studio Mo’Hair

This salon is phenomenal. Discreet location in a charming area off 14^th street, this salon contains a true gem-​he goes by the name of Tone (Toneelbarbero –Instagram for instant examples). True professionalism coupled with one of a kind artistry and a celebrity stylist skillset. If you’re looking for a clean, catered design for your hair seek out master barber Tone at Studio Mo’hair, you won’t regret it!

This salon proves that great things can come in small packages. Studio Mo’hair is a salon with just four chairs but don’t let that fool you. The HairStylist or Barber standing behind his/​her chair is a highly trained, skilled professional doing excellent work. As a full service salon, they do it all! They do take walk-​ins but, its best to get an appointment. The in depth consultation he gives puts me & my Stylist Derrick on the same page. The care given to my person and every hair upon my head is a welcoming delight. I am so happy Studio Mo’Hair is here and I do not have to venture out to Brooklyn or Harlem to give my hair the best treatment anymore. Ask for Derrick, I do!

Fantastic friendly staff! I went from a brunette to a blonde and when my hair turned out orange (which often happens with that sort of transition), they were super accommodating and even offered free services to fix the error! It’s a comfortable atmosphere and really well priced! Go there everyone! And see Mike

Tone the Barber is the best. As a female that gets a #2, its imperative the cut not look to masculine. Tone gets it right! I can’t find another barber that does it any better. The salon atmosphere is a little like cheers «where everybody knows your name»! Very down to earth, no pretense. Just make sure to call in advance so you don’t have to wait. Tone is very popular especially Fri and Sat.

I’ve finally found my nyc salon! I moved here 3+ years ago and have been mostly going to Domincan salons for relaxer touchups. They were fine and the price was right but once I started transitioning to natural I stopped going to them. As my curly hair grew in, I wondered about where to go for haircuts. All the curly salons I found online were either too expensive or had too many bad reviews, or both.
One day I did a hack job on my hair out of frustration and needed someone to fix it up. I found out about Studio Mo’Hair from a blogger I follow (who happens to be the top reviewer). I set up an appointment with Mike and he did not disappoint! He fixed up my hack job and now I have the cutest curliest curly fro ever. He was quick, attentive, and conversational. At the time, he was the only stylist there but other clients were coming in for their appointments. He somehow was able to make sure all felt taken care of without leaving me high n dry.
The service was excellent, the cut was amazing! Now I have my go-​to spot to get my hair done whether its styles, cuts, trims, etc. AND its not expensive! Some curly only places charge $ 300-​$ 400! Studio Mo’Hair is actually affordable yet provides great service. And its not just for curlies, they do it all.
Seriously, I’ve been loving my haircut; feeling and looking fierce! Thanks Mike for hooking me up. Will definitely be back!

The owner is rude with a nasty attitude. The worst part is I’ve tried to ignore the unprofessional, talentless stylist there for their basic skills but when you add high prices and mean stylist using chemicals and heated tool around your face, it’s time to go. April was the only talent there and she left. I believe with the amount of salons that are in the area like Hair Trendz on 14^th btwn 1^st and 2^nd and others, go somewhere else where the owner and stylists have manners and can keep it friendly and professional, but most importantly can actually cut and style hair.

I got extensions done here by Anita who did a wonderful job. You couldn’t tell my hair apart from the extensions. She flat ironed my hair straight and it looked amazing. The entire staff is actually super nice and I will definitely go back.

After having locs for a decade and then cutting my hair off, I didn’t know where to go. My partner connected me with Studio MoHair and I refuse to every see anyone besides Mike. The entire experience is relaxing and simply fantastic. Everyone is funny and kind and skilled. I suggest that any women with natural hair go see Mike. He is a great listener and a skill stylist.

I went here for the 1^st time yesterday. The salon is small so my 1^st impression was, oh ok? When I got there was told that Michael was going to do my hair. I went in there for a relaxer and was shocked that my relaxer took about 30 mins that included the deep condition. When I was under the dryer, Michael offered me a magazine to read and also the barber told me they have WiFi. If you have an iPod touch or an iPad that was plus for me. The other stylist was chatty but I didn’t’t mind. My being very on point about my hair Michael cut it exactly how i wanted it without chopping f what little length I had to was growing out he styled my hair with flips and curls as well. The most shocking thing was he did my haircut so nicely. He also used the old school curling irons and flat irons. (you know the one with the stove I did not mind but I do like the tempter to be controlled. However i did not get burn or even see smoke from my hair. he finished me off with a little spray and that was it. The whole thing took 1hr and 30 mins. Pretty good since I am used to being in a salon for close to four hours for the same thing. I must say they mad a great impression on me also students get discount and that was awesome be college kids do not have 100’s of $$$ to spend on hair. I will defeatly return, however next time I would hope to get my styling very simple because Today when I woke up i could not keep the

This is the ONLY salon I will go to! Even when I lived out of state I came back to Studio Mo’Hair salon to get my hair done. All the stylists are fabulously talented and very friendly. They work well with natural hair, weaves, braids, relaxed hair, and even dreads. Men and Women can go here and be sure they’re going to walk out of the salon looking amazing.
Mike is my favorite stylist and the only person I trust with a scissor to my head, and I was a hair model for a living so that’s saying a lot.
Give Mo’Hair a try, you won’t regret it.

I’ve been visiting Studio MoHair for close to five years. It’s a quaint and affordable ethnic hair salon located just 2.5 block outside of Union Square. The salon is clean, the staff is friendly, professional, and highly skilled. They do every ethnic hair service imaginable from perms, presses, weaves, blowouts and natural styles.
The prices are exceptional for the area. I generally visit for a perm and trim, which runs about $ 75. Wash and sets and men’s cuts start around $ 35. It’s definitely a great place to have your ethnic hair styled downtown, without having to run up to Harlem or out to Brooklyn.

Went here after reading reviews on Unilocal and hearing about the NYU student discount. In short: Would NOT return.
I showed up at around 10 am on a Friday — no one was there. There were no business hours posted on the door either. The website listed did not work — I tried it on my iphone. I didn’t want to give up hope that quickly so I walked around the area for about half an hour. I came back and still no one. Walked around a bit more and then came back around quarter to 11 and finally there was someone there.
I walked in, no one greeted me, BET was on and blasting, I heard rummaging in the back … «umm, be out in a second.» Immediately I had a few words about this place in my mind: small, dirty, unprofessional, lazy staff, and in serious need of a make-​over and pick-​me-​up. I should have fled for the door right then and there, but I had already waited an hour so I stuck it out.
After waiting (yet again) in the front by myself for about 10 minutes the voice finally emerged to ask what I needed done. I said I had just went natural and heard they catered to natural sisters — «uhhuh» was the response I got. I thought he would do my hair, but he said he had to call the stylist to that worked with natural hair. More waiting.
Mike showed up about 10 minutes later. All in all I was NOT impressed with the haircut or the treatment. In fact, the haircut was pretty terrible. Mike was at least personable and could hold a conversation, but in the end I hated the haircut and would not recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a natural salon.

Went here on the recommendation of the highest reviewer here elsewhere and had a lovely time.
Mike did my hair and used both the hot comb and marcel iron on my hair with no heat protectant (granted, I should have asked).
For the price I’ve been to similar places, but the people there are crazy (in a good way). The atmosphere is lovely and it’s almost made me forget the really bad experience I had here years ago when I was still getting relaxed.
If you want cheaper you go Dominican and if you want more expensive you go elsewhere (Ted Gibson, Phyto Universe), but it’s a nice mid-​range salon.

When I was a student at NYU 2 years ago, this was the place I went to get my hair done. Its convenient location in the east village an its reasonable prices made it perfect for me. The fact that they offered a student discount topped it of for me. They offer everything a black woman might be seeking to do with her hair, from weaves, to braids to relaxers that won’t break your pockets. I was a devotee of Mike, and had my deep conditioner and press done once a month, doing it myself on the off weeks. The products they use smell so good, and give a great shine. Never hard to get an appt. But can get crowded. Better to go on off days/​during off hours (during the week, middle of the day)
