Dimaggio Hair & Beauty Salon

Today was my first experience at this salon. I highly recommend it! John did highlights, a glaze, cut and blowout. I have long hair. I showed him 2 pics, one for color and one for cut. He did an awesome job! He gave me long layers like the pic I showed him and natural looking caramel highlights.
He is a highly skilled stylist! We did not exchange much conversation and that did not bother me. A friend recommended the place to me and I was nervous but now I am very pleased I gave it a try.
My finance complimented me immediately and told me my hair looked very nice… without my probing him for a compliment.
I also think the price is comparable to other salons. I understand the salon has been open for 20 years… which is also impressive.
Last thing, the shampoo girl put gloves on before shampooing, and I think all salons should follow said protocol.

This review is for Rosie’s eyebrow treading services located downstairs at the salon. I’ve been going to Rosy since I was ¹³⁄₁₄ (now 25). When I was younger I had full beautiful eyebrows but I went to Rosys here and there, often going to random nail salons for a quick wax which ruined my eyebrows. Also moving away from NY for college left me no choice but to go elsewhere. At one point I had stick thin eyebrows. Then I returned to Rosie after college and we worked on growing my eyebrows back. After 6 months my eyebrows were back to their beautiful full and shapely selves! However the years of waxing created bald spots in key locations but rosy worked around that, leaving some hairs longer to be able to cover those spots and still give a clean fresh look. Now I’ve learned my lesson and only go to Rosy. Yes, at times Rosy is not a ray of sunshine but she works hard, she listens to what you want and then tells you realistically what is good for your face and shape and how long it will take to get your brows to where you want them to be. Her prices for the work she does is exceptionally reasonable and her staff, especially Xena (Zena, I probably spelt that wrong) are very nice, attentive, polite and just as skilled under her direction. Even when an assistant is working on your brows, they are always cleared by Rosy. I would recommend Rosy to anyone who understands the value and beauty of great brows!
In fact, I’m on my way to my monthly appointment with Rosy as we speak!

Rosie at Dimaggio salon is the best for eyebrow threading. Its been 6 yrs now that ive been going to her and she has never disappointed.

This review is for my love Rosy the eyebrow goddess ! I go to her for over 8 years and I can truly say she is a hands down artist! She knows how picky I am and always gives my eyebrows a perfect shape! I seen how many people she fixed up and turned shapeless thin brows into gorgeous, thick, high arch — amazingness! :) I would recommend everyone to go to her, very worth the price!

I have been a customer of DiMaggio’s for over 20 years. The atmosphere is very pleasant and inviting. All the hairdressers are very friendly and creative. One of the most exciting things about DiMaggio’s is that it is a full service shop. You can have your hair colored, cut and blown and continue to go to the, waxing, facial, eyebrow threading, massage and manicure & pedicure rooms. There is a boutique that sells clothing and jewelry and if you are in the mood you can even visit the Licensed Nutritionist for some helpful hints.

I have been coming to Rosy for over 1.5 years and she is AMAZING! My eyebrows have never looked better and I get tons of compliments. She is the best!!!

I have been coming to rosy for 5+ years. She is an absolute artist when it comes to doing eyebrows. I don’t even live in Brooklyn anymore but I still come to her to get my eyebrows done. It is totally worth it, there is no one who does eyebrows like her. She will fix your shape and perfect your eyebrows for you own personal look.
Make sure that you are not late because her appointments are set up back to back so you will ruin her mood and whoever else you have to force to wait because of you. She can be a little feisty sometimes but if you respect her, she will respect you.

This review is for Rosy downstairs. I found her through a post on Facebook about 2 years ago. Rosy is very knowledgable in eyebrows and knows exactly what to do to make your eyebrows full and have beautiful shape. Rosy has transformed my eyebrows to be the best they can possibly be. She sometimes leaves additional hair and I’ve asked her why and she explains that she’s doing it for a reason– so I trust her! If you want thin eyebrows, this isn’t the place for you — Rosy simply won’t do it lol.
As for appointments and her system, yes it’s tough to make appointments in advance but I’ve never had a problem in my 2 years with her. I always try to make appointments in advance, especially for special events. There have been a few times when I had to reschedule. All you have to do is ask nicely and they’ll help you. If you are running late or cannot make it, give them a call and let them know so that they can accommodate someone else in the meantime. Be courteous and you won’t have issues!
As for price, I think all good eyebrow professionals are charging a similar price to Rosy nowadays. The places who charge $ 5 will leave you looking like a nightmare!

Rosy is by far the Eyebrow Goddess. I used to go to Rosy a few years back. The commute became a little difficult for me so I started going to a place closer to my house which I later on ended up regretting big time. After 2 years I realized my eyebrows became much thinner, the length of each were significantly different, and I had many bold spots. When I realized I wouldn’t leave the house without filling in my eyebrows I decided it’s time to go back to Rosy so she can do what she does best and make them naturally full and beautiful. Rosy right away realized the damage, she was extremely patient and made sure to leave pieces that needed to grow but at the same time make it look clean and as even as possible. I came to her every 2 weeks, I made sure to listen to her when she said not to pluck my eyebrows on my own. Literally within the third visit my eyebrows were simply perfection. The amount of compliments I received on the streets were insane. I’v been nonstop hearing the sentence «I want your eyebrows» its such a great feeling. I refer many people to Rosy and so far they’ve all been so satisfied, she has a true passion for perfecting eyebrows. Her main goal is to have people realize her work on her clients which she is very successful at, you just cant go wrong!!!

Absolutely love coming here especially to see Rosy downstairs. My eyebrows have never looked better! I’ve been going to Rosy for many years and her nor any of the girls that work for her have ever disappointed me. They are all very talented. I’ve recommended many people to go here and they have been loyal customers ever since.

Sooooo some friends from work used to revolve their life around their eyebrow appointments and I never understood why. Well, one day after I basically chopped half my left eyebrow off, I made an appointment with their Rosy. My life has never been the same ! I now have an eyebrow consultant :)
She truly does amazing work and you will not be disappointed. I have recommended her to my girlfriends at work and they have to have fallen in love with Rosy. She is amazing at what she does and is a true artist.

This comment is for roseys eyebrows downstairs. I used to get my eyebrows treaded at a different place for years and then finally switched to rosey and would never ever go anywhere else! She is the best and the girls that work with her are more then awesome ! She is always on time and never backed up I’m always in and out in 10 minutes. I’ve sent 4 friends there and they were all super happy with their eyebrows! I would recommend her to anyone, she is the best!

Rosy is a brow doctor. She corrected my brows she is an absolute perfectionist, genius. After going to her I will never let anyone touch my brows, truly worth the price. I’ve had my makeup done by her many times she is a real artist. she is very professional, respectful and a personable

I have been coming to rosy downstairs for about a decade now and don’t think I could ever switch. I came in to her with over tweeted thin eyebrows and after 6 months she made them what they should be, thick enough and a great shape. She doesn’t just thread it all away, first she tweezes, cuts, then threads and always checks to make sure they are perfection. She is strict about people being late, but hey isn’t anyone in the professional world?! Overall I don’t know where my eyebrows would be if I didn’t find her a decade ago, probably non existent and drawn on like all the stuff on Instagram lol

I’ve been getting my eyebrows done by Rosy for a couple years now. When I first came they were sooooo thin from bad threading, but after Rosy got her hands on them they look amazing and full with a perfect shape. I live on Long Island now but refuse to let anyone else touch my eyebrows so I make the trip out once a month.

This review is for Rosys downstairs. I’ve always had thick eyebrows and stuck to the same person who waxed my eyebrows. But when I switched to threading, the salon that I went to REALLY thinned out my eyebrows and destroyed my original shape. It took me about 6 – 7 months at Rosys to restore my shape and now my eyebrows are better than before. She’s very quick and careful. She’s strict with appointment times and they may charge you $ 20 instead of $ 15 if you are late. However, she’s really nice and has a great sense of humor.
Rosy starts tweezing and making your shape. Then her girls thread, keeping the shape that she made, and then she checks and makes sure everything looks good. Tipping can be a little confusing and the first time I came in I didn’t know who to tip since both rosy and someone else was working on my eyebrows. Some people don’t tip at all. The girls will take the money from you, and I just tip whichever girl was doing the threading.
I REALLY recommend Rosys! She’s amazing!!!

if I could give this place zero stars I would… I have been coming to ROSY for the past three years and the level of disrespect you get treated by a person you’re paying is disgusting. Rosy treats you like a second class citizen. She berates you and yells at you if you’re five minutes late and requires you to pay more, but she does the same if you’re five minutes early! Today my appointment was scheduled for 2 pm. I arrived at 1:50 knowing Rosy’s ridiculous policy, she screamed at me and told me she’s on lunch till two pm and then left me on my own. I was digested. I left, she then left a voicemail yelling at me that if I am late for my two pm she will charge me five dollars more. I have NEVER in my life been treated this way by a someone in the beauty industry. Do yourself a favor and go else where for eyebrows!

I AM SO DISAPPOINTED… LONG BEAUTIFUL HAIR WAS CHOPPED UP AND BUTCHERED
This was the first and last time i will ever get my hair done here… my FRIEND has been getting her hair done here for a while so she told me to go here… I have long straight brown hair… all i wanted was a single process and a trim with side swept bangs… nothing complicated… the color came out closer to black then dark brown but thats OK color fades and I think it looks cute darker anyway…
Sooooooo…the side swept bangs came out to be a disaster… the guy cut short pieces going all the way to the BACK OF MY HEAD WTF!!! …the bangs are not blended at all… i asked for the bangs to be even on both sides… they are drastically uneven not even freakin close… now i have to wait for it to grow in… i went to another salon to try to fix it and they were shocked and practically laughing about how bad it was… i didntt go back to have them fix it cause my theory is if they did it so wrong the first time whats the point of letting them try again… I am so sick of these Brooklyn/​Sheepshead bay salons that think they can perform services when they really cant… overall I am just disapointed and feel ripped off
UNLESS YOU LIKE TAKING CHANCES… DON’T GO HERE !!! IF YOU WANT TO WALK AROUND LOOKING LIKE A CLOWN… GO HERE !

This review is for Rosy’s eyebrow’s downstairs.
I’ve been going here for about 7 months now and I have never experienced racial discrimination. I’m African American and Rosy has always treated everyone equally. Rosy cares about her clients and is very content in what she does.
When I first came to her I had no eye brows literally they were butchered. With the help of Rosy and her assistant I get compliments all the time. As far as the price goes, it’s $ 15 with an appt and $ 20 without but you’re only going to her once a month. Neither Rosy or her assistant has never come off to me as though the EXPECT a tip because if I can I do and if I can’t I don’t. I also appreciate the fact that they send you a text to remind you of your appointment and have no problems rescheduling you if you can’t make your scheduled appointment. Overall, I have never had any issues with either Rosy or her assistant. They are very PROFESSIONAL and they CARE about their clientele.

I WILL NEVER RETURN.
On May 2^nd, MY BIRTHDAY, I desperately needed to get a haircut and my eyebrows done. I had read reviews on Facebook about a woman named Rosy for eyebrows who was working at DiMaggio.
T
his is where the review is going to split —
The Salon «DiMaggio» — I made an appointment for a haircut at 11am with Serena a few days in advance (based on reviews I had read). When I arrived, it was like an alien had just stepped into their establishment. I was not welcomed nor offered any beverages. I know this is a primarily Italian salon BUT srsly? Because I’m not white that must mean I don’t deserve to be treated with respect. Serena was 45 mins late for the haircut (I was her first appointment of the day) — I was annoyed because there were a few stylists just standing around, doing nothing, NOTHING. Not cleaning, not cutting hair, just standing around chatting. When Serena showed up, she needed to talk to her people, get an iced coffee, basically gave ZERO FCKS that she had a client waiting on her.
— She talked the entire time (it was pretty much loud screaming to people across the salon)
— I asked for long layers and bangs — the layers were SUBPAR, didn’t blend at all and my bangs looked like I cut them myself.
— Wanted a voluminous blow out — NOPE.
— Why did I have to wait over an hour for basically a trim? Quite a few people standing around and NOBODY was available?
* I don’t like feeling like I’m some animal out of a zoo. Like I’m a subpar citizen. It’s definitely because I’m not white AKA my money isn’t green.
ROSY — I WILL NEVER RETURN TO ROSY FOR EYEBROWS.
Rosy is extremely rude and nasty, unprofessional, overpriced, overrated and does exhibit prejudice against customers who are not her «regulars»… whatever that means.
–It’s $ 20 for walk in appointments and $ 15 with appointment.
–Though Rosy is the only person doing your eyebrows, she works with another girl who threads and THEY BOTH EXPECT TIPS.
–You’ll still wait even with appointment. I went to Rosy 5 – 6 times and had to wait EVERY SINGLE TIME — even with appointment.
–Rosy is RUDE. I CAN’T STRESS THAT ENOUGH. i made a suggestion about how i didn’t like how she had arched one of my eyebrows — NO​.NO​.NO. She JUMPED down my throat about how I should go elsewhere.
I did like the way she did my eyebrows but $ 20? … COME ON.
Here’s the main reason I won’t return to Rosy:
They texted me in regard to confirming my appointment which was for the next week (8 days in the future) — I text back asking if I could reschedule that appointment to the day after or that weekend. I get a reply saying «NO. CONFIRM OR NO»
Um? What? You’re telling me that I can’t reschedule? SO. I call Rosy a few minutes after receiving the text asking her why I can’t reschedule this eyebrow appointment. The girl scheduling said «we can’t». I ask why and tell her that I think her texting me telling me no is unprofessional. WHY?! Rosy gets on the phone and starts SCREAMING that she doesn’t want my business and that I should never return. ARE YOU SERIOUS? ALL I WANTED TO DO WAS RESCHEDULE FOR THE NEXT DAY.
*I can definitely say that Rosy is unprofessional, nasty, rude and prejudice against people who aren’t «her people» aka caucasian or jewish.
*DiMaggio Salon doesn’t want non-​Italians getting their hair done there.
—– Horrible experience with the salon and Rosy. Don’t waste your time. Only go to DiMaggio if you want to be treated as a second class citizen.
