I travel from Boston to NYC to get my hair done with Abby!!!! That is an overall color with balayage cut shampoo and blow-dry and an all out wonderful day. There is no one in Boston to compare with the quality of professionalism and attention given to you here. As far as the cost... I have paid the same amount at a high street name brand salon in Boston ( ok Vidal Sassoon) and have come out looking like a mess. Furthermore, when I expressed dissatisfaction there ( and it takes great effort and lots of courage for me to complain) I was made to feel idiotic as if I couldn't communicate my desires or appreciate "good" work. I am 62, in the performing arts industry, and have been getting my hair colored for 40 plus years. I know how to communicate with professional hair people. After the uniquely bad experience in Boston, I fled crying to NYC to ARTE Salon and to Abby to be treated kindly and taken seriously. A woman's hair is truly her crown and coming out of a day at the salon one should feel pleased by the result. I have had my hair done for special occasions at ARTE by the other stylists and I think everyone is great. Joseph, the owner, wouldn't tolerate any less. Also, whenever I leave Arte my friends can't stop complementing my color and cut. I highly recommend Arte Salon at 294 Elizabeth Street in NYC for professionalism, quality, artistry, and care. Lovely, lovely people and top-notch, talented hair artists.
