Had the best experience for my first haircut with Maria! She was efficient and listened to exactly what I wanted. My hair turned out so well. She also was a pleasure to chat with. I will definitely be coming back <3

I went in for a balayage, and she said she would give me a caramel blonde or honey, but this is straight up yellow.. the only amazing part of the service was the shampoo massage the assistant does. I did come back for a redo on the toner, and it was better but then reverted back to the same. I wouldn't come back. I paid almost $400 for a balayage that doesn't even look completely done and yellow tones. I understand I came with different tones in my hair that could have affected the outcome but still dont promise a full balayage or honey blonde when hair was left out and it looks like a partial balayage, its not complete and to top it off the hair yanking i got with the blowout was horrid even after telling him he was hurting me, unacceptable.

I went in just for a root touch up to my medium blond color, not a change of color. After a long process and sitting under heat, my hair was white. Sat through redo, more heat, still not the color with which I’d walked in and Maria was nasty. Only 3 blocks from my apartment, but never went back.

Maria is very welcoming and talented. She made me feel very comfortable in her environment and to share my opinions and inspo on what I wanted and what she recommended through her expertise. My finishing results were stunning I fell in love with my new healthy revived hair. Her staff was amazing, always checking if I was okay or if I would like water as I waited through the process. The service was amazing and Maria is my permanent hairdresser for any event moving forward.

I recently had my hair lightened by Maria Cortes and was blown away by the results. For over 15 years, I've had highlights done, but Maria is the very best. She managed to turn my dark, weak hair into a beautiful, healthy beige blonde without any damage. This is the color I've wanted since 2015, and Maria made it happen. Maria treats your hair like it’s her own, and she works hard to get the perfect result without making excuses. The salon is fun and welcoming too, thanks to her friendly colleagues. I highly recommend her if you want great hair that makes you feel confident. Thank you, Maria!

This is definitely my favorite salon in the city! Maria and her team are the best hair magicians. They are super professional, good listeners and they always portrait all my desires.

Encontré a Maria a través de mi amiga Ana Gaby y estoy encantada de tenerla como mi estilista en NY para estarme retocando y cuidando mi pelito acá. Cortes de puntas, luces, tintes, mascarillas TODO. María tmb me cambió mi tono de cabello por completo de güero a café así que tmb hace cambios drásticos. Siempre hay buena plática y buenas vibras aquí. 100% recomendada. ❤️

I will definitely be coming back!!Caroline's work at Maria's was truly EXCEPTIONAL. Throughout the process, she consulted with me and asked questions to ensure that I received exactly the results I wanted. Her air touch balayage technique went above and beyond my expectations. The atmosphere at Maria's is incredibly welcoming, thanks to the kindness and warmth of everyone, Caroline, Maria and Michelle. I highly recommend this salon to everyone, they not only provide excellent service but also create a pleasant environment.

I’ve got the worst haircut of my entire life in this salon. If you’re looking for a bob, lob or French haircut, trust me this is NOT the place. They’re ok with long hair. I travelled back home to fix this mess and my all time hairdresser said “OHH my GOD who did this. It looks worse than a beauty academy student haircut” it’s extra choppy, she didn’t know how to layer my hair and I literally ended up looking like I was wearing a helmet. The shortest layers were up to my ears. Since December I’ve been trying to grow back my hair with expensive deep scalp treatments to fix this monstruosity. And I’m not being over the top with my review, just 100% honest since two experienced stylists gave me the same comment of “who did this to your hair?” Sometimes cheap can be very expensive, think twice.

Amazing experience with Maria! Got the most gorgeous cut and blow. A true stylist which customizes cuts for each individual. Highly recommend!!

Maria gave me the best cut and blow dry I’ve ever gotten!! I have really curly textured hair and I was blown away by the results of the cut. She was very attentive and took her time detailing and perfecting. Most stylists usually have a hard time blow drying my hair/ making sure it’s completely dry and the curls are blown out. But it looked PERFECT. Highly recommend!!

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Maria Cortes NY Hair Salon, and I must say that I'm absolutely thrilled with the exceptional men's haircut I received. From the moment I walked in, I knew I was in for a treat. First and foremost, the ambiance of the salon is top-notch. It exudes a modern, yet comfortable vibe, making it clear that they take great pride in creating an inviting atmosphere for their clients. The waiting area is cozy, and the staff is incredibly friendly, making you feel right at home. Now, let's talk about the haircut itself. I was fortunate to have Maria as my stylist, and their expertise truly shone through. They took the time to discuss my preferences and understand exactly what I was looking for. Their attention to detail was impeccable, ensuring that every snip and trim was precise and tailored to my desired look. What truly sets this establishment apart is the level of skill and craftsmanship. The haircut I received was not just a haircut; it was a work of art. The lines were clean, the fade was flawless, and the overall result exceeded my expectations. Maria demonstrated a mastery of their craft that left me feeling like a new man. She is a sweet person Furthermore, the experience was enhanced by the use of high-quality grooming products. The premium products they used during the haircut and styling made a noticeable difference in the texture and manageability of my hair. To top it all off, the entire staff was professional and friendly, ensuring that I felt comfortable and valued throughout my visit. The attention to customer service was refreshing, making this haircut experience one of the best I've ever had. I left shop not only with an outstanding haircut but with a newfound confidence. If you're looking for a men's haircut that goes above and beyond the ordinary, I highly recommend visiting this establishment. I can confidently say that I'll be returning for all my future grooming needs. Thank you to Maria and the entire team at Maria Cortes NY Hair Salon for an outstanding experience!
