Love this place! I used to come here all the time until I went to college. Just came in for a blowout this morning and even though Simona was short on time she still found a way to do it, and it came out great without her rushing. They also do great cuts and coloring. Highly recommend Simona!!!

Axel is great local salon and with friendly service. They use a new oil based hair color(Redken) that does not damage my hair. Leaves is shiny and silky afterwards. I recommend it if you color your hair often. Staff is friendly and personable. Affordable prices.

If I could give this place half a star I would. I’ve never been treated so rudely by a salon staff in my life. Lets start here. Last thursday I walked into the salon and asked when the next available appointment for a wash cut and blow dry was and they proceeded to book me an appointment for tuesday(today) at 4:30. Jump to today, I was very excited for my haircut, walked imto the salon after work ready to relax and not a single worker acknowledged my presence(much like other reviewers have stated). Figuring since there was only one stylist and receptionist I didnt bother them because they seemed busy. Once a customer left, there was a woman getting a style done, and only me. Finally the receptionist asks what i’m here for, so I tell her, she looks through her book, says nothings there, whats my name, flips through a few more pages, rudely whispers to the stylist. At the same time another extremely bitchy customer walks in and thrusts herself at the counter(mind you I have been here for 20 minutes). This girl tells them she has an appointment at 430. The same time as mine. The two women whisper to each other, and then say who can wait longer. Logically thinking, most would assume, the girl who just walked in. Not so. They take this brand new girl and start washing her hair leaving me to sit and wait longer. I was so infuriated I walked out without saying a word. I would much rather spend my money elsewhere. Will NEVER go there again. **made a Unilocal specifically to complain about my horrendous experience 20 minutes ago. This place sucks ass.

I have been getting my hair colored and cut by Liliana for over ten years. Every single time it has been done perfectly and I routinely receive compliments on my hair everywhere I go. As a professional touring musician, it’s important that my appearance is always on point, and this is the only place that I trust to get it right. Everybody who works here has also always been more than welcoming and friendly. That somebody would leave a negative review for not receiving drinks or a satisfactory greeting is the most asinine thing I’ve ever seen in my life. Perhaps they should also roll out a red carpet and play trumpets to announce your arrival, your majesty?

I love this place! I have been coming here for six years and have never been disappointed with the way I look when I leave. I actually first came here in an emergency situation where another hairdresser had drastically messed up my color. Carolin was about to leave but my mom, who was a customer, called her explaining the situation and Carolin stayed late to bring my hair back to its original gorgeous state. I am forever indebted and don’t know what I will do if I ever move out of state! At times you definitely have to wait(only reason they don’t get 5 stars) because of limited staffing or lots of appointments but I have learned to come at good times and also to arrange my day accordingly. Plus all of the ladies here are so nice and welcoming they will make sure you are comfortable with a coffee, tea, water or anything you could possibly want to make the wait more pleasant. Last note, I have had Carolin and Simone do my hair for fancy events and always get the absolute best compliments! On that note, I will end with the comment that I am incredibly picky and attached to my hair so me saying that I trust every person who works here to handle it and impress me everytime is no small thing! Thank you ladies of Axel!

You could go to the fanciest most expensive salon in Manhattan and you still wouldn’t get the service and expertise these ladies at Axel give every one of their customers. Simona does my hair and alwAys aims to please — she asks me what I want and offers suggestions when I’m not sure. Everyone of these ladies are very talented and hard working. You can tell they all enjoy what they do — I always have a great experience at Axel!

I knew I was taking a big chance walking in a place with no referral or word of mouth. Boy am I glad I did, it was a bz saturday afternoon the place was packed so I thought for sure I couldnt get my hair done(wanted color and highlights) This place Radiated Good Karma and friendliness, Carolyn acknowledge me with in min and offer to sit me down asap. I left the place feeling fabulous over the work done for me, Iliana knew somehow what I wanted as if she could read my mind. This chick Krystal Wtvr. who wrote her experience as a bad one must it been bc she was full of negative energy herself… This place is very profesional in a relax, treat yourself, you’re beautiful kinda customer experience. Btw they will be implementing«Sangria Saturdays» to make your experience even better. I forsee Saturdays to be booked from now on.

When visiting a place of business which provides a service to you(especially as personal as fixing your hair) you would think this place would step up to the plate and at least show you a proper greeting and common courtesy. I made an appointment to this salon a few months ago and not only was I not greeted as I stepped in the door, I wasn’t even given any eye contact. I had to announce myself that I was there for an appointment. One woman asked me what I was there for(again not even looking at me) and I informed her just for a blow out(which I had stated over the phone when I made my appointment). She pointed to a stylist putting rollers in another older woman’s hair and said she would be doing my hair but the stylist didn’t even acknowledged me. I tried to be patient and sat down for ten mins and no one offered to wash my hair or anything to drink. The salon was empty and there were other stylist just wandering around. I had my two daughters with me and neither was addressed either,(and I have a 4 month old baby girl, so tell me who doesn’t smile at a baby)? My point is that the atmosphere wasn’t friendly at all and it seemed like a salon older women 50’s and up would go to since all the clients looked about that age. I am in my 30’s. After 15 mins sitting patiently I stood up got my girls together and left without a word. I had parked right in front so as I put the girls in my car, a lady I hadn’t even seen in the salon came out(maybe an owner I don’t know) asked me if I was going to do my hair.(Now someone sees me! Gasp! What a surprise)! I shook my head but didn’t look at her since that was how I was treated and hopped in my car and left! Never EVER again. I only considered this place cause it’s not too far in from where I reside. I rather drive a further distance to do my hair to get better service.

Mandatory 1 star status… Made an appointment with Carolin after reading the great reviews. BIGMISTAKE! I now have to strip my hair because of the color she applied. I told her I didn’t want dark color and the highlights she applied that were supposed to «subtly» enhance the color were a mess. A brassy uneven mess. And my trim! I have the easiest hair to work with and she found a way to ruin my hairstyle too! I’m beyond disappointed. Lets just she’s the reason I signed up on Unilocal. Never again!

Absolutely loved the women of Axel ! Carolin was the sweetest most patient stylist I could ever ask for. I wanted to dye my hair out of black and knew it’d be a lot of work especially when dealing with bleach. She truly had the patience to bleach every strand and re-dye along with adding fabulous layers and making me feel more beautiful than ever before! Lets just say if you want to feel like you’ve just stepped out of a magazine shoot GOTOAXEL! Was my first time going and will definitely not be my last enough said!

I have been getting my hair done here for over 20 years. Carolin has been my stylist there for years now and I adore her. She’s always honest with me about what will work and what won’t. She takes her time and is friendly and personable. I have referred many people here. My bridal party had their hair done here with me and everyone looked AMAZING. Definitely try it out.

Liliana gives the best updos. Worth the price. I wish every wedding, prom and date could be styled by her
