Manhattan has no single kind of beauty room, and this selection shows it. On one side are full-service hair salons: Shampoo Avenue B in the East Village, ROGER \/ MARKEL SALON (hair\/makeup) and AR Hair Salon in Chelsea, Timothy John’s Salon NYC in Midtown. On the other are studios built around a single craft \u2014 Namaste Brows Beauty Bar and Queens Beauty Parlor shape brows by threading, GS Blow Dry Bar Midtown New York City exists for the blowout and the makeup with it, and Athena’s Beauty gathers lashes, nails, brows and skin in one room.<\/p>\n

What separates them is specialization, the depth of the team and how far the technical menu goes. Fox and Jane Salon was opened by a former color educator, and color remains its center of gravity; Antonio Prieto Salon works through senior stylists and colorists on K\u00e9rastase, Oribe, Wella and Redken; AR Hair Salon goes deepest into chemistry, with Olaplex bond-building, keratin smoothing and thermal reconditioning. Choose by the service you need: here people travel across town for the right chair, so the block matters less than the specialty.<\/p>\n<\/header>\n
