Foxy Salon NYC

I hate haircuts, I will be the first to admit it – I hate them they never turn out the way I want them, I have never had one that I went home and loved immediately, its usually a waiting game like 3 weeks later I am okay with it. But my hair was looking rough and needed a haircut desperately I couldn’t deny it any longer. I gave in and let Lauren give me a haircut, i was pleased instantly, I went home loving my haircut and color and well that never happens. So thank you Lauren for actually giving me a great haircut.

Long story short, Tana and Suzette are my cut & color dream team.
It started with me learning about dry curl cuts. My hair’s far from curly, but it has a natural soft beachy wave that I could sometimes coax out with some product and prayer — but I’d never considered getting it cut by someone who’d know how to set the wave free. Tana did just that with an incredibly personalized cut that gave my ultrafine hair body and movement like I’d never seen before. Best part is it kept looking even and nice for three months. I came back for a trim and Tana bumped it up even more.
By day I’m a photo/​stunt double, and my very fine hair has gotten thinner and thinner every time it’s dyed to match someone else’s. I’ve been sent by networks and film companies to the fanciest salons in town, all of which tortured my scalp with harsh chemicals — which I wasn’t interested in being subjected to on my own time. When I asked Tana about color, she recommended Suzette the color magician.
I showed up on a Sunday with at least two hard lines of muddy color in my hair and a general idea of going back to natural at the roots, and Suzette went to town. She was energetic, super-​sweet and genuinely stoked about transforming my disaster color into something naturally rad. And unlike those fancy-​ass Manhattan salons, she actually listened to my cautionary tale about my hair processing ultra-​fast and usually winding up darker than expected (other colorists simply ignored me, then seemed amazed at the results and would go back in with bleach, ugh).
Suzette used an ultra-​gentle semi-​permanent chocolate brown to blend my roots down to an ombré, treating the ends with a honey tone, and adding caramel and cinnamon highlights. So essentially, my hair is now the best dessert ever. Best part is my scalp felt fantastic after, and even my boyfriend commented that I didn’t smell like chemicals — a first!
I’m so excited to watch this color grow out and not have to touch my roots, and I bet my hair will respond they way it does to Tana’s cuts — with healthy, effortless beauty.
Thanks, Foxy! Your peeps are awesome.

I’ve been desperate for a stylist that I really trust in New York City since I moved here eight years ago, and I’ve finally found one. Nora knows exactly what she’s talking about, and can give you helpful feedback about your haircare that goes way beyond what is guaranteed to be your incredible cut/​style. She’s easy to talk to, reassuring, and invested in what she’s doing. You won’t be dissapointed!

Shoutout to Lacy for being the queen of pixies! I tried two different stylists in other places before her and was never super pleased with the way my hair fell once I left the salon. Lacy is everything. I just had my third cut with her and as always, she listened to everything I wanted while giving suggestions on what might look good. I’m thrilled with my hair and have receiving compliments on the cut from random people. I drive over an hour to get here but it’s definitely worth the commute knowing that I’ll leave with a fun, trendy cut that suits me perfectly. For pixies, Foxy offers complimentary touch ups which is awesome and overall the salon is cute and relaxing to be at.

Great blow out. Such a cute place!

I called and got an appointment for the NEXT DAY, which I was thrilled about. Nora did an amazing job of cutting my hair with precision and speed. I left the salon looking exactly how I wanted to look. Plus, she did her best to ease my anxiety about getting my hair cut with kind words and reassurances, which definitely was above and beyond my expectations.
My only problem is the price. For the quality of the cut, I guess it’s worth it… I just didn’t feel like my experience was so wonderful that it was worth $ 75.

I’ve been feeling really freakin’ sweet about myself since Lauren cut and dyed my hair a few weeks ago.
I’ve been hopping around hairdressers in Brooklyn and Manhattan the past 3 years in search for my match. I’ve gotten some o.k. cuts but nothing to write home about. On the contrary, I’ve had a fair share of hair failures as well; I even resorted to box-​dying over a super crappy dye job from a fancy salon in the east village because I was so fearful of letting anyone touch my hair again. I was convinced that this is how it was going to be for the rest of forever; I was settling with the thought that would never be fully pleased with my hair. Luckily, a friend recommend me Foxy Salon and all these depressing hair thoughts were washed right down the drain.
One of my favorite things about Foxy was how welcoming and friendly the environment is. Lauren genuinely cared about my hair goals and didn’t make me feel like a jackass for not being able to describe them in technical terms. I brought a picture which helped, and she evaluated my current hair situation and concocted a unique dye combo that would work well with what I had going on. I have dark brown hair and wanted a change. Something subtle and not too blonde or brassy. She has a background in art which is definitely assuring when someone is choosing the right color scheme for your head and then painting it on. I loved that she took the time and care into doing this, and then checked on it periodically to see how it was turning out.
I could go on and on about how much better the whole experience was compared to other hair salons I’ve been to, but ill just cut to the chase and say that I love the color in my hair and I get lots of compliments. The cut she gave me was EXACTLY how I wanted it but even better. She fixed up my last hack-​job, and we talked about how we can achieve what I was going for in future visits. Communication was excellent and she made sure we were on the same page. Its been about 3 weeks since it all went down and my hair is still looking healthy and is easy to manage! I attached a photo of what it looked like this morning. Thanks Lauren and Foxy I will definitely be back!

I’ve been getting my haircut here for 2 years, and must say this place is awesome. So awesome that it’s actually one of my first Unilocal reviews!
Kevin and Nora are wonderful, and know exactly what you’re looking for. I had one experience with Kevin recently where I wasn’t entirely pleased with the cut, just because I realized it wasn’t the length I really wanted. I just called in and asked if it’s possible for him to take a bit more off, and am heading in tomorrow for him to chop off a little more! Such easy people to make appointments with and talk to, and the stylists all know their stuff. Thanks, Foxy!

This review is long overdue, but after my second amazing hair cut with Tana today, I had to finally post. Last summer, I went to Tana to lighten my ombré. I wanted to keep my length and go almost blonde (I’m naturally a darker brown). My fear was having streaky fake-​looking highlights. However, the end result was anything but. My sister deemed it my «best haircut ever,» and numerous strangers stopped to tell me my hair color was lovely.
I left New York for a year for work and just moved back about three weeks ago. One of my first stops was to Foxy. I was able to make an appointment with Tana — just the girl I wanted/​needed in my quest to drastically change my hair. I have had long hair since high school, and I have had the ombré lightness for about three years. So when I told her I wanted to go dark and chop it, she was game. She listened to what I thought, I showed some pictures, we discussed options. She helped me to go from nervous to excited in minutes. I sat back in my chair with a beer and a Cosmo and watched the magic unfold. End result? 10 000 times better than I could have ever imagined.
You can’t go wrong at Foxy. And you especially can’t go wrong with Tana. If you have a vague idea of what you want and are worried that you can’t quite describe it, don’t worry. Tana can make your vision a gorgeous reality.

Had my hair colored with Shannon twice – the first was fantastic. If you’re a natural blonde looking to go platinum, she’s your girl. Having been platinum herself before, she knows what she’s doing and has a lot of great tips for maintaining platinum hair. She’s also very friendly and chill, and happy to chat or leave you alone if you’d rather just relax, which is a huge plus for me.
My second visit (in which I wanted to go from platinum to silver) wasn’t so great, but I still want to give her the benefit of the doubt because my her first color job was so awesome. In retrospect, I definitely could have been clearer about what I wanted, so maybe the issue was entirely on my end. I’ve also heard that Foxy Salon doesn’t always have supplies its stylists need in stock, forcing them to improvise a little. For this reason, I might not book here again for anything too crazy color-​wise, but I’d definitely give it another try next time I need a cut or a more subtle color job.
In any case, the salon was accommodating and everyone was extremely friendly. I work weird hours and appreciated their going out of their way to squeeze me in day-​of on more than one occasion.

Chill atmosphere, friendly stylists who listen and help. What more could you want?
I’m a terrible client. I used to be super anal about losing too much hair, then I chopped it all off, now I’m too easy going and basically walk into a salon saying «fix me please»
Today Shannon SAVED ME from my lazy self. I hadn’t had a cut in months, scheduled last minute, showed up with 10 different pictures of completely different cuts but put myself in her hands. She totally understood what I was going for. Started with a dry cut (came in with clean, no product, not-​styled hair as I wear it on the daily) and then shampooed with a killer scalp massage and a blow dry with some touch up snips here and there. She styled it to mimic my natural waves so she could make sure it was good to go. Looked great after just a simple blow dry, looked great with the texture she added.
So happy with my new ‘do. She cut it for growing it out (but looking cool while doing it) because anyone who’s ever grown out a pixie knows the struggle is real.
5/​5, would recommend. Reasonably priced too.

Carli. Carli. Carli.
She’s been my go-​to highlights girl since 2012. And for all of those blondes out there who want to hear «OMG you get highlights? Your hair looks so natural!» Carli achieves that every time. She’s the best!
I’ve never met someone so obsessed with doing highlights. She’s a perfectionist and strives for the best tone each time I see her. She’s a professional. And she’s also really kind and considerate.
She’s also cut my hair at every length. Chin-​length bob, grown out to mid-​back, and chopped off to a fabulous lob most recently (see pic). She’s made my hair look incredible at every length. I barely say anything when I see her now. I come in, sit down, and she does works her magic. Love her!

So I recently decided that I wanted to chop off 80−90% of my hair. After spending hours on Unilocal trying to find a salon near me that could get the job done, I came across Foxy Salon.
Friendly staff, amazing stylists, and totally worth it
— Nora (really hope that’s how she spells her name) was my stylist & I highly recommend going to see her.

I LOVE my new hair!
I called for an appointment, and they said I could come in a half-​hour later to work with Lacy.
Lacy did a FANTASTIC job on my hair. I was a bit nervous since I hadn’t cut or highlighted my hair in over 2 years. She cut off the exact amount of hair I wanted gone, and she did a phenomenal job putting full blond highlights in. She’s so fun to talk to as well!
Overall, the cost was very accurate, and it took 3 hours (12:30pm — 3:30pm). Outstanding experience all around!
I have finally found my go-​to NYC salon & stylist!!! Thank you Lacy!!!

walked in recently cause I was unhappy with the length of my bangs (done elsewhere). they looked great, but were too long and driving me insane. I got a bang trim ($ 10) from a really sweet blonde woman (I don’t remember her name, I suck) and she maintained the style my usual stylist had created while shortening the bangs to a tolerable length. SO much happier. will definitely be coming back for regular touchups, since i’m an adult baby who can’t cut her own bangs.
PS they have kevin murphy products for sale here also.
