Rieko is awesome!
by laughtera
I went to YO-C after my aunt had gotten a killer cut and beautiful color last month. I was welcomed by Rieko who introduced herself and sat me down to see what I was looking for. Because my stylist of 6-years left for Paris, I was very nervous to be in a new salon. Rieko reassured me YO-C was the right place for me. My hair came out IDENTICAL to the photo I brought along... she really did a great job and I will return many times again... she is also very soft spoken and NOT pushy which I love in a stylist... try her out, shes FABULOUS!
Pros: Intelligent Staff, Great Overall Hair
Cons: None at all!

Best kept secret in the city!!
by erarsena
I've been trying to find a hair salon I like in the city forever now. I randomly found this online and decided to try it out. It's definitely my permanent place now!
The atmosphere is perfect. It's clean, pretty and a very relaxed, calming space. I went in there not really knowing what I was talking about but knew I had roots and needed to get more highlights for the summer.
Yoshi listened to me and gave me the absolute best highlights I've gotten so far in the city -- and for about 100 bucks less than what I'd been paying for them. He was also really professional, yet soo great to talk to and friendly. His assistant gave me the best shampoo I've ever had and even used a hot towel on my neck and forehead after. Just when I thought it couldn't get any better she gave me a little head/neck/shoulder massage in the chair before drying my hair. I was in heaven.
I'm without a doubt going back to this place. I can't believe how much less it was than every other place in the city, yet was a million times better!
Pros: Great atmosphere, affordable
Cons: None.

Best East Village High End Salon Experience
by Millmann
I had an incredible experience at this beautiful salon. I loved the clean lines and relaxing atmosphere in this intimate space on East 5th street. The soothing introduction and attention to my needs was outstanding. The artists really know how to give a carefree haircut that is done in a very professional and calm atmosphere. The simple touches such as Lac\vender soaked hot towels on my neck as I was shampooed and the chair massage was a real treat and made me forget my busy rainy cold day from work. The haircut was carefully done and not rushed??.perfect. I got an excellent lesson in hairdrying and I was on my way expecting to pay so much more for this terrific experience?. I have been back for a trim and second haircut and it was even better than the first! Please support this local small outstanding neighborhood establishment!

THIS PLACE IS AWESOME... AND AFFORDABLE!!!!
by 1002311372
It took me seven years and many tries, but I've finally found my place. I went to Yo-C for Japanese straightening after a horrible hair cut and after a good review. What a great hidden gem! My stylist, Moouja, was fabulous and attentive without hovering and she never waivered during the 3 1/2-hour process. Her English was also excellent. I saw how the owner, Yoshi, really listened to his clients and asked many questions before he got started - a plus in my book. And the music was quite enjoyable and not the usual techno as in most Japanese salons. I highly recommend this friendly and affordable place to anyone seeking a professional and welcoming place.
Pros: great location, affordable, friendly, professional
Cons: none

Great Hair Cut

I highly recommend Yo-C salon. I got my first haircut from Yoshi a few months ago, and have been going ever since. Yoshi is very professional and takes great care in his work. The salon is very comfortable, and the location is great. Perfect hair salon.
Pros: Comfortable atmosphere; Great haircut
Cons: None.

Best hair artist in New York!!
by sy0803
Yoshi is definitely one of the best hair artists in New York! He has cut my hair for almost 5 years, and I don't trust anyone else to cut my hair except Yoshi.
I was so desperate before I met him because there are no good hairdressers in New York. He has not only the basic techniques but also his own technique that he has perfected through a lot of practice and dedication. He always pays attention to new styles and popular trends, and constantly tries to improve his techniques. The salon is very comfortable and nice. The shampoo sink is especially nice. You should try it! Believe me. If you try it once, you will never want to go any other hair salon.
