Chic Elegance

I used to live nearby, now I go out of my way to get there. Anthony is an amazing stylist but everyone there is quite good. The place doesn’t have a lot of frills which is a-​ok. That helps keep the cost so reasonable.

Guess a blow out is something that one must explain to a hair stylist… even after she blow dried my hair and I kept telling her what I wanted she persisted to do a horrible job… basically half ass curled my hair with a curling iron .and by the time I walked one block my hair was no longer curled… the only thing good about this place is threading lady… and the last time I was their the entire staff was talking about Muslims and terrorism in front and openly without having any regard for customers being in there shop… such a sad place must be why it’s cheap …

Short version: Anthony is exceptional. Understands hair. Gave me a terrific cut. Clean, friendly salon. Very reasonable prices. Good people. Pleasant environment.
Long version: 10am last Tuesday morning I arrived at my usual salon to find out that the woman who has been cutting my hair for years called in sick. I had 2 somewhat formal events relating to my son finishing up the 4^th grade that day and desperately had to get a haircut. A quick visit to Unilocal and I realized most salons are either closed until noon or booked solid. Anthony at Chic Elegance was also booked solid for the day but he heard the desperation in my voice and kindly said I could head right over & he’d take care of me.
It’s a very clean, professional and very comfortable salon. Anthony’s wife Nancy manages the appointments & I loved the feeling of the place. While I waited I enjoyed a coffee from next door at D’Amico’s and grabbed a quick manicure across the street. Chic has a very experienced nail technician who just happens to be off on Tuesdays. I’ll get my nails done there next time.
The Cut (!) I’m of the mind that hair, well, it grows back, so I’m never too worried about a bad cut. I figured I’d get tidy and blown out and be happy. Instead I got a haircut that not only looked good walking out but also at home when I washed it. I realized that he’d addressed my overly thick curls in the back so intelligently! The man knows hair. He’s really very good. The blowout was fantastic. He uses the brushes expertly to leave the hair straight but with life, a good bounce & a playful long curl here & there. He straight irons if you like that kind of thing but it’s not for me.
Can’t thank him enough for the kindness he showed me that day.
Needless to say, I’ll be going back

I love this salon. Everyone is so friendly the atmosphere is very homey. I have had my hair cut by «the best» most expensive Haircutters and none are as good as Lucielle. I drive from Eastern Long Island to have her cut my hair. My sister who lives in Brooklyn gets her done by Lucielle also. WE love this place !!

I have been getting manicures and pedicures by Ada for several years. She is truly the best — precise and takes her time. She speaks perfect English as well and has great suggestions for how to strengthen your nails. It’s not like the manicure mills you see everywhere. Best to make an appointment, usually there’s no waiting when you do.
The atmosphere at Chic is fun too — I love listening to the staff from the old neighborhood. Carroll Gardens at its best!

I love this salon, the owners, and stylists. It’s a Brooklyn gem. I have been getting my hair cut by Anne Marie for 13 years. Anthony mixes my color. The atmosphere is like home. They did my hair and my bridesmaid’s hair for my wedding. Plus my mom’s hair. I have since moved from Carroll Gardens to Park Slope and I still very loyally return. I think the entire staff was born and raised in the neighborhood, so I love shooting the breeze and hearing about the old days. I get my hair cut there, I get color, and I have had them do my make-​up for special events. They don’t make em like this anymore. Love the Chic!

Great people, great atmosphere. Lucille is the best! Would not get my hair cut anywhere else —

Address is 318 Court St near Degraw St. Phone 718−625−1061 I have been getting my hair styled and cut at Chic for several decades. Due to Chics Popularity and expansion of personized services, Chic moved across Court St to its current location. When Anthony had first styled my hair, I felt like i had what you would call now a «Makeover». Even when I am overdue for appointment, my hair still looks great. My duaghter had her first haircit when she was 6 months old at Chic by Jeannie…

Ada is the BEST WAXER you’ll find in South Brooklyn. Trust me, I’ve been to a lot of waxers in South Brooklyn…
She does it all: bikini, brows, legs, mustaches, etc. She’s fast, clean, gentle and just all around pro. I will go anywhere Ada goes.
She also gives a terrific mani-​pedi. Prices are right — brows are around $ 7, lower legs are $ 15. Mani-​pedi is under $ 20 if I remember correctly.
The salon is great, too. The awesome neighborhood italian ladies getting their blowouts and gossiping about their kids. Fun times.
