Meri Hair Salon

Do not go here! Meri will not fix your hair. She will refuse to do any correction on you and tell you that you are wrong and need to pay more money. I walked out with a big spot on the side of my head that was not highlighted and she made me feel like I was crazy after asking her to fix it. After 1 week I came back and said to her she didn’t highlight the top of my head after charging me for a full-​head of highlights and I want to add a few highlights and she got mad and didn’t want to speak to me. She is rude and thinks she knows best, customer service is not important in this salon any high end salon that you pay 300 dollars for a half of head of highlights which is what it was and she tried to tell me I got a full head of highlights would have no issues fixing you hair.

This review is long over due! I have been going to Meri for over 2 years now. I am so picky when it comes to who touches my hair but she immediately made me feel comfortable. After getting many amazing haircuts from Meri, I will never go anywhere else. She gives a great opinion and will never steer you wrong. Her salon is clean and smaller than most salons which is another reason why I love it. I have recommended Meri to all of my friends and the ones who have listened to me absolutely love her! Her prices are also very fair for an UES salon. Definitely make an appointment and go see Meri!!!

I last minute ran in this evening for a wash and blow out. They were so nice and accommodating. Price was reasonable and they did such an amazing job. I will absolutely be going back to get the much needed haircut I am due for. If you are looking for a reasonable price, stylish and clean. This is the place.

Meri is wonderful. Friendly and professional, with a gentle touch! She has cut my hair twice, and did exactly what I asked for each time. I worked in a large salon for 5 years, so I know a good haircut. And Meri is a gem!
The place is also in a really great location. It’s clean, quiet, and zen.
Mike is also very friendly and professional, gives a great shampoo. Very satisfied with my new hair spot!

I’ve been to Meri and Mike for blowouts. They are both fantastic — very friendly, efficient and talented! The price is reasonable, and the little salon is a charming, gleaming, lovely little spot tucked away on a tree-​lined UES street.
Because it’s small, the experience is calm, relaxing and very personal. I have always left with fabulous-​looking hair. (I have friends who go there regularly as well, and their hair always looks great afterwards, too!) A neighborhood gem.

A cozy lovely place to have hair done with satisfaction every single time :)
Mike is a great hair dresser with lots of patience and inspiration ! Meri is such a kind lady, I’ve been to the salon for a year and believe I’ll keep coming !

I have been a customer at the Salon for the last 9 months. Mike is a very good hairdresser and has cut and styled my hair very well. Regarding the owner, a very nice woman, but not a very good business person. I had a terrible experience having my hair colored by her and having my blond highlighted hair turned into a copper brown/​red color. After seeking her help, she did not agree to give me a refund, but thought it best I seek another hairdresser. I left upset and with a hair color that was horrific. I went to seek advice by another colorist in another salon and was told it would take 3 processes to correct the mistake. Obviously, one thing I learned that you have to trust your instincts, and when you tell the hairdresser when your hair is still wet, that the color is not right, trust that you know your self. Some people thing that they never make mistakes… that’s Meri.

Amazing salon. Meri will do exactly what you ask to a tee. Everyone is very very nice, great prices too.

Tomas is amazing! He truly is the best. I am never diappointed with his work and constantly get compliments when he cuts my hair. Great personality and an even better stylist. In a city where stylists are a dime a dozen, Tomas really does stand out! SO LUCKY I found him!

I have very unruly, thick, curly, long hair and not many hair stylists can style it properly. Thomas is amazing — I can get my hair done on Thursday and it will last perfectly for at least 5 days. He will blow it out so its straight and smooth from root to halfway, then gives the ends a perfectly bouncy loose curl (and again, they remain bouncy for days without any touching up). Plus they will charge me $ 50 when others will charge $ 60 and up.
