What People Are Saying About Self Salon
Featured Review

You may stand out after a trip to this Williamsburg salon, since bed-head, Flock of Seagulls-style looks are more common in this 'hood than high-end cuts. Owner and stylist Maria Barca opened up the shop in 2004 at just 23-years-old, and has since established a loyal clientele thanks to her natural eye, proficiency with scissors and commitment to friendly service. Several staffers hail from top-notch salons like Frédéric Fekkai and Oscar Blandi; there's even a Deva-trained curl specialist. And if the clean, white, open space isn't calming enough, acupuncture and zero balancing services are…

I love, love, love Self Salon!!! The customer service is excellent, everyone is so nice. Maria, who's the owner is such a sweetheart and styled my hair to look amazing for my son's wedding day. A week before at another Brooklyn salon, my hair was made to look horrible with a color job that was a nightmare. My poor hair looked fried after the damage was done. He didn't even apologize and I was charged almost 400.00. So grateful to Maria who did an amazing job with my hair, She made my hair look so healthy and beautiful. I received compliments on my hair and makeup all evening. Danielle who is also a love worked her magic and did an incredible job on doing my makeup for the special day. It was beautifully done and people raved how beautiful I looked. My son upon seeing me had a huge smile on his face and said I looked beautiful. Priceless. So grateful to Self Salon for making this mom extremely happy and beautiful. I will be going back to Self Salon for all my hair and makeup. Love them!!
Tranquil, Minimalist Salon in Williamsburg

I used to always get my hair done in Manhattan. I got fed up of taking the train to Manhattan from Williamsburg every weekend, so began to troll the neighborhood for new salons. One day I walked by Self and haven't turned back. The space itself is impeccable - modern, fresh and relaxing. The owner Maria did an absolutely amazing job with my cut and Danielle is a color magician. I'd actually never had color before and was so very happy with my new locks. I think my cut was $75 with Maria and balayage highlights which I got were $175 - totally worth it and still about half of what I used to pay! They also rock the blowouts! Love them.
- Pros: best cuts and color in the 'burg

Best Hair I've ever had!!
by Aish619 at Citysearch
I have been to a few salons around the city. Then I finally found "the one" I came into Self + Therapy a few years ago and have been hooked ever since. I had my haircut with Maria whom is the owner. After reading the two negative most likely fake reviews I felt the need to write a review to set some things straight. Maria is nothing but professional and a perfectionist when she is cutting hair she ALWAYS makes sure you leave happy and in love with your hair. She is super easy to talk to and is very knowledgeable about hair types and products for each different hair type. I also recently had Danielle the colorist add a few hilights to my hair. I had no previous color on my hair and was pretty apprehensive about coloring it, I knew it was time to add a little something to it being winter time i was feeling drab. Danielle suggested painting in a few hilights just to brighten my face. I am so thankful I listened I left the salon with my hair looking like Eva Mendez it was exactly what I had in mind! Thanks Maria and Danielle for making me feel so beautiful and brightening up my winter!!
- Pros: Best hair experience!
- Cons: I cant come in every day!
