Pretty good here! You tell them straightforward what you would like and they pretty much get the job done well. I was very satisfied!

Believe too many bad reviews!!
I saw their deal in Groupon and bought it. I called and got an appointment with "Eli" the owner. My appointment was at 2 pm, when I arrived he said we are running late. I sat there for FOURTY minutes when a polite lady came to take me to the back. I said I have an appointment with Eli, she said Eli does not do the internet deals!!! I insisted and she went and talked to him couple of times while he was a foot away from me and he never bothered to come over and address it himself. He acted like internet deals are so beneath him that his highness would not even get his hands dirty for them. He was intentionally rude and disrespectful. I have never seen anything like this. I made a huge mistake of not checking the reviews before buying, if I knew I would have never bought it.
So after almost an hour waiting and not even being offered a glass of water, all I got was the view of Mr. Eli's behind, I walked out WITHOUT having anything done.
I figured if they are so disrespectful of my time, they are not going to have any respect for my hair either and now after reading the horror stories here I'm glad I didn't allow them to touch my hair.
I'll call groupon to return the damn thing tomorrow!

BUYER BEWARE!!! The lady who supposedly was the “Keratine expert” did not know what she was talking about & seemed to be a parrot. I asked if it was the 1 day treatment and she told me “yes”, I asked to see the bottle, and it said on it 48-72hrs. I stated “this is not what we agreed upon”. She tried to cover her lie, bye explaining “this is what we use here”. After lying to me, she began. Eli the owner noticed my frustrations and insisted on working on me. He was aggressive and obnoxious. Forcefully he told me “don’t tell me how to do my job”. I explained I have had this done SEVERAL times before & I am quite familiar with the process. He tried to quickly pass thru my hair while raising his voice, several times. He insisted my hair was fully treated and had already “dried”, after he completed 1/3 of the treatment. Had he properly treated my hair, it would not have been “dry”. My hair is extremely thick & quite impossible for it to dry in 45 seconds. Eli was IN-TOLERABLE, they do not know what they are doing, and I wouldn’t recommend this place to my worst enemy.

"It's one thing to call yourself a "New York City" salon and another to act like one. Eli's, which has somehow managed to stay in business on the upper east side for quite sometime must be putting "something" in their hair-dye. Completely overpriced for the 'schlock' service they offer, the staff is not only rude but unknowledgeable. Customers are treated like children waiting to see the dentist, and when they finally do get into the chair, after only being offered strawberry sucking candies, they decide how your hair should look - and pepper rude comments throughout the procedure. On my first - and last - trip to the salon, the stylist and I had such a disagreement about what a side part is, that I was asked to leave before the work was even completed, If you ask me, Eli and his staff would be better off running a falafel shack than a so-called salon."
