Fantastico!

by CocolinaK

I did not know what to expect when I heard about this salon through a girlfriend of mine and it exceeded all of my expectations!

The staff was adorable and helpful and transformed my look 100%: I went from a brassy blonde to sassy brunette in 2 hours--the stylist was flexible and even rearranged her schedule to accommodate me.

I love the music and their welcoming atmosphere. Complimenti Ragazze!

Grazie mille ancora per un bellissimo lavoro!

• Pros: Great staff, location, and ambience!
• Cons: None

Great Stylist & Great attention

by NYnative

They take walk-ins!

They always try to help squeeze you in and accomidate you even if its busy!

Regular clients get notifications about monthly specials/discounts!

When i went in to cut 7 inches off i was a little worried,

(because my hair is very thick and curly and I didn't want a 'fro!!)...

but I sat down and got to explain exactly what I wanted and the stylist gave me ideas to help get it. She REALLY listened and offered great ideas that I didn't even think of !!!

....Some stylists are better at cutting/blowdrying and others at dying hair, so you have to be careful who you get for what. The first time I went in for a dye it was alright but the cut was amazing, when I went back a second time the other stylist who dyed my hair was a genius!!

BEST SALON EXPERIENCE!!!!!

by BKGirl524

I was just passing by and hadn't noticed this place before. I needed highlights and thought I'd see if they take walk ins... they do. I only had to wait about 10 minutes, and they were super attentive and even brought me a free cappuccino! I got the greatest shampoo I have ever had IN MY LIFE. My stylist Nicole was extremely knowledgeable and gave me amazing highlights. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!

• Pros: Atmosphere, customer service, skilled stylists

Simply the best

by ersyflafly

I live in the neighborhood and have gone to several salons here. This place is, hands down, the best. First, when you call to make an appointment, the receptionist is always friendly and eager to help match you with the best stylist if it's your first time. When you arrive, you are greeted by smiles, great decor, and a complimentary refreshment. The stylists listen to what you want, and offer helpful suggestions if what you want might not work (they are trained professionals, after all). Whether I've gone in for a cut to help tame my once long, curly hair, or to get it all chopped off for a sleek new look, I've never walked out disappointed. . I am surprised by the negative post left on here by "ihatemycolornow", as I have never been unsatisfied. Perhaps their whole story is not being told, or it's simply a character flaw. Regardless, don't be daunted by the negative souls out there looking to vent. If you haven't been here yet, what are you waiting for? Great prices, great service, great atmosphere. Who needs to go to the city?

• Pros: Service, Ambience, Parking

Nice people- HORRIBLE BLOND HIGHLIGHTS

by ihatemyhaircolornow

I just went to the donne salon to get my highlights redone- I asked them to stay faithful to the beautiful natural blond that I had spent years creating with the Elizabeth Arden salon. They assured me that they would- my hair LOOKS HORRIBLE. They gave me the most yellow, unnatural, streaky highlights i have ever seen. I am so unhappy and almost embarrassed. I am going next week to the kenneth salon to see if they can do anything to salvage my color. Blonds beware! Just because they use Kerastase doesn't mean they know what they are doing!

there are 2 words.......... ABSOLUTLEY AMAZING!!!!!

by sarab85

There are no words to describe the customer service you will get here. Not only that i think that my Valentina is a mind reader, i didnt even have to tell her what i wanted, she knew exactly what i wanted and what looked good on me. EVERYONE in DONNE SALON is warm, experienced and professional beyond any expectation.

I remember the first time i got my haircut,(and every time) i walked out feeling like a million bucks, and it showed! I went to work the next day, people were amazed! Everyone assumed i spent $300. My hair looked so good they didn't even bother to ask where i did it because they thought i spent a fortune. Then when i finally told them i got my super chic look for $65, i kid you not their jaws dropped! talk about a beauty secret.... that should never be kept!!!

GO TO DONNE SALON NOW.......

• Pros: EVERYTHING
• Cons: NOTHING

best haircut

by asuperchi

I recently moved from the City to Brooklyn and I was looking for a nice place to get an hair cut in my neighbourhood. I was walking down to Smith street the other day and I found Donne Salon by chance.

As soon as walked in I felt a great energy and I understood this is the place that I was looking for.

Mario cut my hair the same day and I have to be honest: I've got one of the best hair cut ever and for only $38.50... I could not believe it.

Thank you very much!

Outraged!

by Star23

It is true that everyone is entitled to their own opinion, yet I

definitely do not believe that your description of this salon truly

reflects them or the experience that I recently had there. This is the

first salon that has made me feel comfortable and really did the job

that I had requested. I was extremely impressed with the quality of

customer service as I left there feeling as though I had made new

friends. As for the fragment, "they only speak Italian", that doesn't

make much sense as I only speak English and we had delightful

conversations during my visit. The price was very reasonable and

Manhattan salons do not come close to the quality of this place.

Maybe you have a personal vendetta towards someone there because your

synopsis does not represent this salon.

best italian salon

by illary

I found what I was looking for the right place for my hair.

Fortunately I found valentina and linda at donne salon have saved my hair.

They are very good and they know what they do with great professionality ,the prices are not at all expensive.

In this beauty salon there is all the warmth and charm Italian.

Thanks to girls who have created it.

Overpriced underskilled

by nooyorwk

Italian ( they don't speak English) hairdressers that charges Manhattan prices and offers an amateur inexperienced service. The slogan say it all. What was I thinking? Buyer beware.
