Fabulous hair cut!!!
by Itzel A
I have a hard time getting my haircut, I usually break out into hives. This was the first time that I felt like a stylist actually listened to what I was saying and used my body language to make sure that I was comfortable and pleased with my cut. The owner is fabulous and her apprentice that she was working with was great as well. I will definitely be going back for years to come!!!!! Patricia Hair Salon Highly recommended!

Patricia Hair salon excellent place for hair cut!!!
by sophia ken
From all the hairdressers and shops I have ever been Patricia's Hair Extensions Salon has to be the place I have felt the most relaxed and satisfied. Obviously some girls are better than others, but I have always been pleased with the results, after having my hair done at Patricia's Hair Salon. I have found that they did exactly what I like and suits me. They are not afraid to do bold colors or cuts like many places I have been in the past. I would recommend Patricia's Hair Extensions Salon to anyone, eve just to have a try.

Blowouts are the best in NYC
by rhea1960
For me it is the great blowout's or blowdrys that stand out. If you want a great blowout or blowdry, I am not sure the word people use, but get a good wash, and they blowdry and flat iron your hair, and give you some hair curls with your style, what is that, blowout, Blowdry? What ever it is this place is the best by far. I go once a week for a blowout or Blowdry. They do a great job in the style, and it lasts for days. I like to go Thursdays, and it lasts me to the start of the week. They have so many stylists that are good, tried them all, love them all.
Pros: Blowout, blowdrys, wash and sets

Truely blessed professionals
by lydia manning
I loved my overall experience at Patricia's Salon but mainly I was blown away by the expertise Claudia bestowed upon me. She is a truly blessed artist...
I bet no one can tell I had any hair coloring done, it is so beautiful...She is the first hair colorist who actually "understood" what I have
been trying to communicate to everybody all these years...
Thank you Claudia....and especially Patricia to have such a wonderful team
Pros: Did exactly what I wanted...
Cons: none

Good Service at affordable prices
by mariambright74
Atmosphere is very warm and comfortable and not intimidating to someone like me who can usually feel a tad out of place in a upscale salon.
and Nico was a wonderful listener, specially when it came to hair length. she made good suggestions for my face shape, hair texture (wavy and thick). She gave me the best long layered cut I have had. I just
wash, air dry, put my hair up in a bun which I let loose after a few hours and get lovely waves.
I have to say though the price is reasonable when you take into account the great cut, service and the fact that we are talking about New york a easily gettable destination.
Pros: great cuts, friendly service
Cons: affordable price in this economy

Best of the Best in hair colors
by bianca7354
The hair colorists in Patricia's Hair Salon are the best. Probably the best hair colorists in NYC. They are trainers to other hair colorists, so I guess one should not be too surprised.
Regardless, The hair colors are great, the hair color products they use are great, they use Redken products, which are my favorite.
I had hair extensions once also, for a wedding, and the hair extensions came out great.
So what I am saying is, I am a happy customer, and will be a long time client!
Pros: The hair colors, or hair colorists are the best

Best Brazilian Waxing Salon in NYC area
by brynnbender
Don't forget the Brazilian Waxing! I see everyone talking about hair extensions, hair loss, colors, and cuts, but people sometimes forget that Patricia's Salon is also a top of the line Brazilian Waxing Salon. They numb the area in 2 ways, with a numbing wax and a numbing spray. That helps make the Brazilian wax almost painless. That is what I love about the salon, a great Brazilian Wax. And they soothing lotion they use after prevents bumps and irritation.
I go ever 3 weeks, and they charge me $40. To me that is the best deal on the internet. In Manhattan, they charge you triple for the same excellent waxing. Patricia's Salon is the best Brazilian waxing salon in NY.
Pros: Brazilian Wax is the best

hair extensions have damaged my hair
by AliciaReynas
Nothing destroys your hair fasten than extensions. It?s taken a year and a half to get my hair grown out,? after Patricia salon horrible extensions, and they just don't care! Patricia and her friends must be written all these reviews, everybody I know is very unhappy with the extensions!.
Cons: just don't use hair extensions

Clip On Choices in their hair salon are great
by candace7044
Nice selection of clip in hair extensions. They have some clip in hair extension types that are not found anywhere else. I did custom clip in hair extensions, where I had something hand made just for me.
What I did was go in for a consult, and then did a hair color and bought matching custom clip in hair extensions. Nice choices, I use them on girls night out. Works for me.
Pros: Clip On's and hair coloring
Cons: ?

A fab blond look
by joymiranda198575
I have been longing to write this review forever! When i came to Patricia my hair was a mess. I went to a Manhattan salon to go blond and phew they
really messed up my hair.
Patricia fixed it and i have been going to her ever since. First, she carefully examined the damage done to my hair. As in.. i went from dark brown to blond, she managed to keep my hair in great shape. Second, she always makes sure that i look natural. No one can tell that i am not a natural blond.. they are always surprised when i say i have dark brown hair. She is great.. and I really owe her everything when it comes to my fab blond look. I love it! and i am def sticking with it.
Pros: experienced, pros, great atmosphere
Cons: They don't have branches : <

Professional Hair dressers
by Zyanya Q
If you ever want to get your hair done professionally and affordable then Patricia Hair Extension Salon is the place for you. The staff is friendly and accommodating.

I?ve also done their Brazilian Keratin Hair Straightening and it is amazing. It takes away the frizz and curls to give you shine and smooth straight hair with no chemicals. Also try their products for better looking hair. ;)

SoCap Hair Salon
by pandoralyons
I love my hair extensions I swear! I look so good. Did my hair extensions 3 weeks ago. When I saw that Patricia's Hair Salon had review sites, I jumped at the chance to write something. Patricia's hair extensions salon is amazing, the best of the best. I love their hair extensions. I did the SoCap hair extensions, a full head. I love my hair, it was short because it was damaged and I chopped of lots of my hair in haste. I was so sad. Anyway, I went to Patricia's and they took care of me the same day. Who does that? They did. I feel so much better, I was really depressed about my hair. They also colored my hair and gave it a nice hairstyle.
So the moral of the story? I love my hair, and I thank the best salon in the world.
Pros: SoCap Hair Choices for extensions
Cons: Nothing

Men haircuts are great in Patricia Hair Extension Salon
by daniel mark
If there are some guys who are picky about their hair like I am, then Patricia Hair Extension Salon is definitely a great place. The people are very professional and the cuts are as good as it gets. I go there the day before big events (weddings, big client meetings) etc...

Great Lengths Hair Salon
by maggyholder
The Great Lengths Hair extensions are really the best in Patricia's Hair extensions Salon. Where else can you do a same day consult and Great Lengths hair extensions? Patricia's Salon allows you to do just that, that is what I did yesterday. I didn't think it was possible until i saw 3 other people doing so yesterday when I was there.
i don't know how they do it, but Patricia's Hair Extensions Salon is just a well oiled machine in hair extensions, that everyone tries to copy, but they can never match. No complaints from me, I love this place also.
Pros: Great Lengths Hair Salon
Cons: Ha, not here
Posted 11/09/09
Great stuff all around.
by leonjescie
I have read all of the reviews of the types of hair extensions that people like, I must say the best ones in my opinion are the invisible knot hair extensions. They are light weight, last a long time, and look great. I see everyone has their own opinion, so it is my turn to speak up.
Regardless, everything is great. You can't miss with any of the hair extensions. Get a free consult and see what your hair extensions options are.
Pros: Great Stuff all around
Cons: My budget was also limited

For me, the hair extensions are the best in New York City
by maiadillon
I have a busy schedule, so just wanted to drop a quick note. Hair Extensions Salons come and go, but Patricia's Hair Extensions Salon, and their color team, and spa crew are amazing, plain and simple. Best hair experience in New York City.
Pros: Hair Extensions
Cons: not much

Hair Salon for female hair loss also
by brynne1984
Patricia's Female Hair Loss Salon is a great hair salon that specializes in Female Hair Loss solutions. They offer over 10 different female hair loss options, so when I went in for a hair loss consultation, I was able to get the right female hair loss solution at the right price. Places in Manhattan wanted to charge me 3 times more than Patricia's Hair Loss Salon, for a horrible hair loss solution. I am so glad I went to Patricia's Salon for my hair loss. I suffer from Alopecia, and was in dire need of help. Patricia's Hair loss salon found the right solution for me at the right price, and did everything in a beautiful private atmosphere.
Thanks Patricia, you saved me, and I love you guys!
Pros: Female hair loss options
Cons: Wish I didn't have Alopecia in the first place.

Professional and friendly
by isadorachurch198573
I have now been to Patricia's Salon 5 times. I definitely remember getting a free hair trim the first time (which I liked).
Yesterday I asked for a little warmer hair color for autumn and she got it to the point!
She knows I can only afford to come every 6-8 months for color and applies it accordingly.
Thanks!!! Patricia and Team
Pros: Understands your difficulty

Best Hair Salon by far
by gillian198362
The hair extensions are great. This is the best hair extensions salon by far. They don't push you into any one hair extension. They offer so many types that they take the time to see which one fits your hair type and budget. I liked that. They looked out for my hair needs, my hair extensions goals.
Went to a few other places that tried to be pushy to one solution, and I realized hey they are doing that because that is all they do.
Try Patricia's Hair Extensions Salon, I did, and I am glad I did.
Pros: Hair Salon services performed

Best hair cut and color I've ever received!
by Kaneonuskatewy
The place was very pleasant. My hairstylists gave me the best hair cut and color I have ever received! I have very long brown hair and she gave me a great, hip shag hair cut that everyone complemented me on. I also wanted to make my hair a darker shade of brown and she mixed the perfect color for my light skin tone. All the employees were very friendly. My favorite part was the shampoo and massage! I could go back every day just for that. I highly recommend Patricia Hair Salon and will never go anywhere else!

Full service hair salon and extensions excellence.
by chloe196522
Need a great color or hair extensions, then I recommend going to Patricia's Hair Salon in Astoria, Queens. The hair colors are great, and so are the hair extensions.
There are many different types of hair extensions that Patricia's Hair Extensions Salon performs. I recommend the Fusion hair extensions. They are light on the hair, and last 5-6 months. I like the Fusion Hair Extensions when I go to Patricia's. I have thinning hair, and I get them to fill out my hair, and increase the volume of my hair.
Everyone's needs are different of course. I just wanted to give you my two cents on which hair extensions are my favorite at Patricia's Salon.
Pros: Hair Salon Services and the extensions

The Hair Colorists are excellent
by simone197751
Patricia's Famous Hair Salon of New York, in Astoria, Queens, NY really does have the best hair colorists. They are amazing. I have tried 5 different colorists over the last 2 years, and I must say I have been impressed with all.
Many hair salons do think they are the best, but I tried some in the past, and they ruined my hair. With Patricia's hair salon, I look and feel great. Nobody does better hair services than her salon.
The Spa Facials and the Eyelashes extensions are also equally amazing.
Try them, you will love them. I agree with that!
Pros: Hair colorists are best out of any hair salon
Cons: none

Waxing Salon, Brazilian Keratin Treatment Salon
by ivy198177
Waxing and Brazilian Keratin are amazing. The Waxing is painless, they use a numbing spray and numbing wax. The Brazilian Keratin Treatment is great because they have different formulas, and use different formulas depending on what your goals are. They think about you and the your goals Pricing is good $40 for the Brazilian Wax, and $250 for shoulder length hair which is a steal. Patricia's Hair Salon is a great place, I am very happy with the results.
Pros: The waxing services are incredible, and the BKT
Cons: nada

Astorias best hair salon for sure
by istronger5
I can say without a doubt that Patricia's Hair salon is the best hair salon in Astoria, Queens, NY. I have been to 3 others, and they were in a word, horrible. With Patricia's Hair Salon, you get a classy, upscale salon, that is the World's Best Hair Extensions Salon. I live in Astoria, Queens, NY, and I must say the place adds prestige to Astoria, Queens, like no other store, or business can, and I am proud they are with us.

All Hair Salon services, especially extensions and colors
by pandoradowns
I feel that Great Lengths hair extensions are the best. Great Lengths hair extensions are the hair extensions that I use. They are the best on the market. Patricia's Hair extensions salon is one of only 5 I think that do all 3 Great Lengths types, and are masters in Great Lengths extensions. I was visiting from out of town, and was able to get great lengths hair extensions after my consult. I then caught a plane in the evening, and went back to Canada.
Patricia's salon is the best, can't agree anymore with all of the great reviews.
Pros: Extensions and Hair Colors

by arthurdickerson27
What can I say except I love you Patricia's. I got a full lace front wig. I had severe hair loss and got a premium lace front wig. Virgin Hair. I bought one in an expensive Manhattan Hair Extensions Salon, that did a horrible job.
Patricia's Salon not only had the best lace front wigs that were much better than the other salon, they were also cheaper and better.
You saved my life Patricia. Thank You

Hair Salon is really great
by florence196040
Hair Extensions leaders in New York. I feel Patricia's Hair salon is the best hair salon in NYC. No hair salon is better. I went to a Manhattan hair salon before I went to Patricia's and I was disappointed there. I complained to them about my service, and they were rude. I then went to Patricia's Hair extensions salon, and was treated professionally. They went over my hair options, and I found the perfect system for my hair. They are not biased in any one system, since they do them all. They find the right one for your hair type.
Thank you Patricia's Salon for the great hair service. I am so happy with my hair.
Pros: Hair salon is really great
Cons: No nail services

Great hair cut!!!
by Caluray Q
Despite being afraid to chance another bad haircut, I tried Patricia Hair Salon for the first time. I got an appt quickly (and early in the morning), and I was escorted to the shampoo chair at the exact time of my appt. The front-desk person was super friendly and helpful (especially with hair tips), and my stylist, listened to everything I asked for and delivered my request and more. She was chatty but fun and easy to talk to; in one hour, she gave me an amazing haircut.

Everyone needs to see the Remylinks hair extensions. Best Hair Extensions on the market by far. I have had them for one year, and I get them adjusted closer to my scalp every two months. Since I own the hair now, the maintenance is cheap now at $300. This has saved me a fortune in expenses.
