This is the best of the best - Angie provides a level of quality, style, and care that simply can not be matched in the space. The haircuts, facials, products used, and amount of personalization will make you feel like your finest self.


Feb 06, 2024

Angie's the best! She loves taking the time to learn about what you want and is happy to give you tips on how to style your hair!


Feb 06, 2024

Really good haircut here. Accurate and cuts exactly how you want!


Feb 06, 2024

She’s awesome. Go here. Worth the cost. Especially for curly men’s hair.


Feb 06, 2023

Always the highest quality haircut and a welcoming and wonderful environment. Love Angie!


Feb 06, 2023

Angie and her team have created a true gem. An intimate and premium cut experience without any of the stuffiness you see in NYC. The clientele genuinely loves her and she gives it all back! In spades! I truly enjoy coming in here every single time and come away looking and feeling great.


Feb 06, 2023

Angie is incredible. A haircut should be a personalized experience and Angie goes to the next level. She listens and we collaborate. It’s not a point at a picture and approximate a cut, typical barber shop experience. She really wants to work with you and her passion for her craft is palpable. And the banter can’t be beaten! This is a one-of-a-kind haircut experience and Angie’s cuts set me up for long spells away from New York City. 10/10


Feb 06, 2023

Angie is the best of the best! After only a few visits, she has made me feel like family and it certainly doesn't hurt that her work is incredible. She really knows how to give the client exactly what they need--the cuts are exceptional, imbued with style, personality and individuality. Truly can't see myself going anywhere else for a cut!


Feb 06, 2023

Been in NYC for almost 4 years and Angie was the first and only person to cut my hair. Not only is her service exceptional, cuts on point, great environment and atmosphere, Angie is just a wonderful person to be around. Friendly, funny, inviting, she genuinely cares about her clients, to the point where she talks to us as friends. I wouldn’t go anywhere else and nor should you!


Feb 06, 2023

Highlo is the best experience for a hair cut. Angie is amazing with scissor cuts and pays such great attention to detail. She really loves her craft and it shows in how much she loves her clients. I can’t recommend highlo enough.


Feb 06, 2023

Highlo isn't just "a place to get your hair cut" — it's a vibe and an experience that will have you walking out feeling your best internally & externally. Angie and her staff are masters of their crafts. The attention to detail, professionalism, and talent at Highlo makes it elite ❤️


Feb 06, 2023

Highlo offers top tier service. The overall atmosphere is very chill and relaxed and I always leave feeling renewed. Angie has an amazing attention to detail and takes her time with each client never making appointments feel rushed. She always knows exactly what I’m envisioning and brings it to life.


Feb 06, 2023

Hundreds of haircuts and dozens of stylists and barbers, and I've never met anyone who can cut my hair as well as Angie can. In addition to being fantastic at her job, she's a warm and wonderful person.


Feb 06, 2023

I have been going to Angie for 3+ years and can't imagine anyone else touching my hair. She is incredibly talented and experienced, and I'm always happy with the finished product whether it's my usual cut or something new. I also have to shoutout John for keeping my skin glowing. He is a master esthetician, and his product knowledge is endless. The environment at highlo is warm, inclusive, and always fun. Their space is beautifully designed and private. Getting a treatment at here feels like visiting a friend's chic home. The team take their work seriously, but it's never stuffy, and they have built an incredible community around the shop. I can't recommend highlo enough!


Feb 06, 2023

I have been going to Angie for 3+ years now and I love seeing her at highlo. She has created such an elevated yet comfortable and easy-going experience, I always look forward to our appointments. I can't imagine going anywhere else!


Feb 06, 2023

I used to hate getting haircuts. Hate. My hair always grew out in a weird way and ended up being a floppy mess. But in 2018, I met Angie, and everything changed. Angie makes you feel empowered and confident not just in the way you look but in the way you live your life. Her knowledge of products and practices in hair and skin maintenance are also unparalleled. The environment is calming and friendly, and the entire experience is fantastic from start to finish. Highlo has become a safe haven for me, and I can't recommend Angie enough.


Feb 06, 2023

I've been going to Angie for the last 3 years because she's fantastic. I get compliments all the time on my cuts. And I'm embarrassed to say that it wasn't until the age of 45 that I learned to how to correctly use a hairdryer to style my hair. That's all thanks to Angie. Not only does she give great cuts but she actually teaches you how to take care of your hair and how to style. Love the vibe of this place too.


Feb 06, 2023

I’m a big fan of highlo - they give great haircuts and facials, and always have a great vibe. Just when I thought highlo couldn’t get any better, Gio joined as a new barber - I like to wear my hair short with a nice fade so he is perfect for me! He can even do cool designs. Go to Gio for a 10/10 fade (and try a design!)


Feb 06, 2023

I’m picky about my hair and take a while to find someone that does it perfect, and Angie is definitely that person for me. I’m stunned every time.


Feb 06, 2023

Not exaggerating - best men's haircut in NYC. Have referred 4 or 5 friends here and every single one agreed. Angie is world class, and a wonderful person. She. Will. Make. You. Look. Awesome.


Feb 06, 2023

There’s no better hairdresser than Angie PERIOD. An hour in her chair makes me look better, feel better and makes my smile bigger. THE BEST ❤️


Feb 06, 2023

3 years ago I uprooted my life and moved to NYC for a promotion. It took me 6 months of first dates with barbers to find Angie and after my first cut I knew I had found the perfect match. Angie makes you comfortable, listens to your wants while giving her expert opinion, and has some of the best skills in the industry. Very shortly after finding Angie she shared that she was going to open her own business—enter Highlo. Highlo is an intimate and elevated space where everyone is welcome, able to express themselves, and receive bespoke service that fits their individual needs. Now I can’t ever move again because nothing will compare to my Highlo experience. I have recommended Highlo and Angie’s services to anyone I know looking for a great cut and even better experience. Do yourself a favor and book an appointment!


Feb 06, 2023

Angie is incredible and always makes me feel awesome. Haircut is great and the vibe is relaxed and friendly. Tens across the board!


Feb 06, 2023

Angie is incredible. My go-to for amazing service! Super friendly atmosphere in her own private salon.


Feb 06, 2023

Haircuts are a vital part of overall appearance - and Angie is the perfect partner for dialing in your look. She takes all of the guess work out of what works for your particular look/style. Personally, it's a perfect blend of a low fade on the bottom, with length on top. No brainer standardization. You'll never get your haircut anywhere else again :)


Feb 06, 2023

Highlo is much more than meets the eye. Nestled in the heart of Manhattan, highlo is a one stop shop for a fresh cut and to get that infamous “highlo glow”. Founder and owner, Angie has an adept understanding of her clients hair type and she is extremely proficient both razor and scissor cuts. In addition to having a marvellous hair cut, pamper yourself with a facial. John is a knowledgeable aesthetician and he customised my facial to suit my sensitive skin, leaving it more radiant than ever.


Feb 06, 2023

I am a queer woman and I could not ask for a better barber. I have seen Angie for 3 years and every time I get a cut it is an accepting and affirming experience. She is MAGIC at all short and edgy cuts.


Feb 06, 2023

I came across Angie 6 years ago and I’ve never let anyone else cut my hair since. I’ve always been so particular with how I like my hair cut & styled. So when I got my first ever cut with Angie, I knew I would never go anywhere else. From the moment you sit in that chair, you are cared for and understood — the team has such an unmatched knowledge of hair styles, needs, and what will work best for each person. It’s my favourite ritual and self-care step: I always leave feeling looked after, perfectly styled, and with an extra bounce in my step. But beyond the amazing feeling of self confidence you get from highlo, you also feel so warm & energised after spending such a FUN time with the team. The vibe, energy and community is truly so unique, especially compared to the traditional stuffy or bro-ey environments you find at many barber shops. I can’t praise Angie and the team enough. Go check highlo out now for your best haircut ever — you’ll never look back!!


Feb 06, 2023

I have been going to highlo since the start, and have been getting my haircut by the founder, Angie for even longer. I would not even think of going anywhere else, it is the best cut in the city, full stop. I can go into highlo stressed from work, life or whatever and I always come out with the best fade in NYC and so at ease from the low key vibe and great conversation from Angie. Go book now!!!


Feb 06, 2023

I'd always had trouble describing what I wanted when I went to a barber but Angie just "got it" the first time she cut my hair and gave me the best haircut I'd ever had. I've never gone anywhere else since. She's also amazing at beard styling–I couldn't believe how good my pandemic beard looked after she trimmed and shaped it.


Feb 06, 2023

I've been going to Highlo for over a year and a half now, and I couldn't recommend Highlo & Angie enough. The cut is always excellent, and I have 100% confidence that the look will be exactly what I'm looking for, especially before a big event. Besides a great cut, Angie creates a relaxed, fun atmosphere where she really gets to know you, takes an interest in your life and grooming routine, and encourages her clients to learn about their hair and skin care to be the best versions of themselves. Come for the cut, and stay for the great atmosphere, patio views, education and Angie herself!


Feb 06, 2023

I've lived in NYC for almost 15 years and have been in search of the perfect haircut since I first moved here. Ive tried barbers, I've tried salons. Ive gotten $20 haircuts and Ive gotten $300 haircuts. None compare to the quality of cut Angie provides every single time. On top of her talent she is delightful to be around. I can't recommend Highlo enough!! ITS THE BEST!


Feb 06, 2023

Love this shop! Visiting highlo is always a joy and hands down my favorite appointment each month. Angie is so friendly and really takes the time to understand and then deliver what you are looking for. I have been coming here for a few years and wouldn't go anywhere else. I would highly recommend this place to everyone in NYC


Feb 06, 2023

She is simplt the best in town for all types of cuts.


Feb 06, 2023

Support small business owners!!! Angie is an incredible stylist who will make you feel comfortable in your chair, listen to your needs, and make sure you walk out feeling like the best version of yourself. Highly recommend checking out Highlo if you are looking for attention to detail with a great vibe. Not to mention the space is beautiful!


Feb 06, 2023

The best barber in Manhattan. Great vibes. Great space. Great haircut.
