The Color Room Hair Salon

Omg this place is amazing. What i love about color room is the service Candida, Gisell and Jay are amazing. I went to color room as a natural brunette after 3 years without dying my hair. I want to go blond but not any blond i want a platinum blond. Candida gave me her honest opinion about the blond i wanted which left me very indecisive. I told candida go ahead I leave it in your hand. She did an AMAZING job the result was the BEST!.

My candida it’s the best, only colorist that I entrust my hair with. May your hands last us forever my beauty.

I really like this place a lot. I did some research to find a better colorist in the area because one of the last places I went to were not very good with color. They are expert colorists here, and Candida is so friendly while also being very fast and efficient. I recently stopped in without an appointment and they were extremely accommodating to fit in a single process color and hair cut. I know they have tons of great reviews here, but something about this place feels extremely underrated. I would highly recommend this place to anyone, especially since it sometimes feels like you have to travel far in NYC to overbooked and overpriced salons for this type of quality.

Candida and her team are amazing stylists and they have been helping me to look my best over the past few years. You will love going there to get your hair done!

I got caramel highlights on my hair here, and they turned out so well! I had never gotten my hair colored before, so I showed Candida some ideas of what I wanted and she was able to help me figure out the best fit for my hair. She did an excellent job and I'll definitely come back in the future! The salon took lots of COVID-19 precautions and I felt very safe there, too.

J and her team at the Color Room did an absolutely phenomenal job doing hair and makeup for me and my bridal party at my wedding. The team had a sense of calm that made the day run smoothly. They traveled to me and my bridal party in Brooklyn to do our hair and makeup. The team dealt with a variety of hair textures and skin tones and all of us looked great! Several people remarked about how beautiful our makeup was and both our hair and makeup lasted through hours of dancing in the August heat! I have been coming to the Color Room for nearly 10 years and there is no one else I would have trusted on such an important day in my life.

Love love love Candida and Jade and their staff. Been going to them since they opened. Candida is an expert colorist - efficient and reliable! You will never go anywhere else after experiencing their professional service.

I love this salon! I’ve been coming here for years! Candida & the entire team are friendly, professional and truly care about your hair. It’s the only place I would send my kids for their hair color adventures and for my keratin and haircut. A++

I've been going to The Color Room pretty much since it opened at its former location on 101st and when I tell you ever since then I cannot let anyone do my hair without feeling unsatisfied in the end because no other place can do my hair the same. It never works out! Jay and the color room have been treating, straightening, cutting and coloring my hair since 2014 as well as doing my makeup for any event. Ever since then my hair has grown so much healthier and longer. Even though I moved an hour and half away they were the first I called when I was planning my wedding hair and makeup. Another team was not an option. The confidence I have in them is 150%+, if there was anything I was NOT worried about the day of my wedding, it was my hair and makeup. I confidently colored my hair the day before my wedding knowing that the color would come out perfectly of which, came out even better than I thought. They, as always, were so professional, kind and thoughtful to make me and my bridal party feel like queens while making sure that our looks would last the entire day. We booked them to come to our private residence and they came early, set up quickly, did their amazing work and cleaned up like they were never here. I couldn't be happier with the work they effortlessly did and would recommend them to anyone with an upcoming wedding. You cannot go wrong with the color room.

Candida's are the best haircuts of my life, expert color, fabulous blow drys. I dont even live in NYC anymore, but if I am in town I make it my business to get to Candida! you will not be disappointed.

I went in last week on a whim, for a last minute haircut. I waited about half an hour with no appointment which seems fair to me. Evelyn followed my exact instructions and my hair looks great! She cut about two inches off (I'll add a photo when I wash and style it) Price was $47 without tip

Worst. Haircut. Ever. And then they blame you. Showed her a photo of haircut, explained exactly what I wanted. She didn't listen......Did I mention this is the worst haircut ever?

Negative. All i wanted was a blow dry from wet hair so it wouldnt be frizzy. The woman Candida doesnt listen, argues with you when you tell her what u want. I know what works on me. She partially dryed me by aiming nozzle at my head, and after that then she start using the brush. Then sprayed regular hair spray which is full of alcohol. The result is $50 spent , hair is total frizz . Worthless

I had such a wonderful experience at The Color Room today! I had attempted to bleach my own hair last night and ended up looking like a day-glo orange clown. It was bad. I read about The Color Room online and found it appealing. I felt genuinely welcome from the moment I buzzed at the door. Eveline (I may he spelling her name incorrectly) knew exactly what had to be done, explained the processes to me and told me the price before we got started so there were no surprises. She was friendly and open, funny and kind, and just a pleasure to sit and chat with. And my hair looks awesome. I couldn't be happier.

Love this place!!! They are so accommodating and I always leave there feeling great!!! Candida is wonderful. Definitely recommend!!!

Quick, easy, skillful and inexpensive blow dry. Come in for their blow dry specials which are only $30!

This is a welcoming salon. The stylist I would use is Magdalisa. I frequented the stylists at this manhattan-based salon for almost 10 years. Magdalisa is 5 stars. The management changed in 2014/2015 after the name change, and the prices quoted to me for coloring touch-up increased to almost $180 under the 2015 management. I had my hair colored under the old and new management; the management during my experiences has understood color selection and continue to be attentive to their clients.

Just amazing. Candida who caters to my elderly mother and does an incredible job it looks like she walked out of a movie. It is not only the Color Room but a great salon because: Evelyn in particular cuts hair like a pro. She fixed the mistake a previous Upper East Side Salon made. They have an eye, cannot explain it any other way. My color and blow outs are fabulous and last. I am a native New Yorker and have been to dozens of salons even $500 dollar ones. With the prices at the Color Room I can afford a walk in blowout for $30 dollars any day, interact with friendly staff. YES THEY EVEN OFFER WINE, I will indulge next time. Candida is an expert, a professional,gentle and suave, she has created magic at the Color Room showing the variety of shades available and WORKING WITH YOU. I just got my hair cut from Evelyn and in 30 years I HAVE NEVER BEEN HAPPIER. All of it is here: cuts style, friendliness, comfortable atmosphere and prices. Other places around the neighborhood give you a cookie cutter haircut, take off volume. Instead the Color Room GIVES YOU VOLUMES AND WOW! Amazing. OU la la!!!!

I wanted to get my hair done for my birthday so I thought I would check out a place close by. They were great there! I had my hair washed and conditioned and blown out into loose curls. Absolutely loved it, so worth it for a special occasion for $40 plus tip!

Best color I've had in longer than I can remember. She paid attention to details, she made sure all of my grey was well covered and checked on it as it was developing. Absolutely the best hair wash I've ever had at a salon! Very nice and accommodating, easy to chat with, and all at a very reasonable price. Color Room is now my go to place!

Wonderful!! Dropped in today with my 16 year-old who tried to dye her hair blond--it turned orange. The Color Room did an absolutely fantastic job getting her color back to normal (dark blond) with subtle highlights. The staff is warm and friendly and obviously experts at what they do! The cost was very affordable (we priced this fix at Aveda and they quoted almost triple what we paid). We are happy customers!! THANK YOU Color Room!!

Horrible place!! They started with using the brush without cleaning it after working on the customer before me whom just left. Then 2 ladies were blow drying my hair simultaneously (I guess for the tip since the place was empty?!?) I got back home with one side straight with no volume and the other side very full and wavy .. I believe I could do a better job myself! It took them 15 minutes to complete the blow dry and it looked exactly like a 15 minute job.. And I paid $55 for this disaster! Never again!!!

I went to this salon in my neighborhood for a color and blow-out, as the prices seemed reasonable and I needed speed and convenience on a Saturday morning. I can't say enough about how wonderful the service was - every single staff member I interacted with asked my name, introduced themselves, and asked if I had been there before. When I said I was in a bit of a rush, I got a two-person blow dry, so was in and out in just over an hour. I love that it was affordable, warm, my color looks great, and my blowout lasted 4 days! I will now be a loyal customer.

Highly recommend:) Got a wash and style. Super friendly people and great service. Price was very reasonable $35. Super happy with the way they blow dried my hair with lots of volume.

I found The Color Room through a search on Cezanne's website. I love their Keratin treatment and was excited to find a salon in my neighborhood that uses it - and at a very reasonable price! Jay's application was better than I've gotten at other salons in the past. She got all the baby hairs! She also gave me a haircut that I'm very happy with. My hair is fresh and smooth for the August heat. I will be back!!

I've been going to The Color Room some months after it opened and after the Supercuts salon across the street closed. My first haircutter was Juanita, who left to return, I understand, to Supercuts elsewhere. She was really fine. So my new haircutter was Candida. I read how fabulous she is as a colorist, which service I don't use. Candida is a terrific haircutter and the price I pay is fair and certainly competitive here on the Upper West Side. I also had the best shampoo and scalp massage by a wonderful young woman whose hands were truly therapeutic. I don't have to travel far from home; I just walk in and wait for Candida. I leave happy. It really doesn't get better than that.

Horrible place! Prices for the same service vary and very negative attitude. No wonder what this place is always empty!

Candida fixed my DIY hair color/hair cut oops. I decided to go back to my original hair color, and it looks natural and exactly what I was hoping for. Her eye for color is amazing. The cuts are always great - she takes time to see what it will look like after it's dry too and talks you through the process. I highly recommend her and The Color Room. High quality cuts/color for reasonable prices!

I could not be more pleased with finding The Color Room. Candida and her team are professional, courteous, knowledgeable Salon and make up experts and their color and cut reasonable prices cannot be beat. They are also lovely, caring people with diverse clientele...so refreshing. My hair color has never been more beautiful. I highly recommend this Salon. You will not be disappointed.

Found this little place by accident walking down Broadway and to my surprise was very pleased with an impromptu haircut. Returned again and was satisfied enough for a third visit. Third time was not the charm. Not using the Aveda products they sell, but cheaper products. Used deep condition with extra charge without asking, and styled my hair so badly I had to rewash and style when I got home. Cut and color okay, but disappointed overall.
