Im probably too old to still be wearing my hair in the style of David Cassidy and Freddie Prinze (circa 1973), but Ive got a full head of it and, gosh darnit, Im gonna take care of it! I wish someone would have told me ten years ago that my $10 haircuts looked like $5 haircuts, but nobody had the guts, so I had to find Scissors and I had to face the myth-shattering truth that, when it comes to haircuts, you get what you pay for. Ive known Joe for a long time, but I had somehow come to associate Scissors with "one of those ladies places with the fashion magazines and the toe baths" and I decided it wasnt a place for me. One day, a friend with a similar mop of hair mentioned that he had been a Scissors customer for some time. He suggested that I check them out, so I walked in on a Saturday thinking I could just get a haircut on the spot the way I did all those years at Super Cuts. Apparently, it doesnt work that way. Did you guys know that you have to make an APPOINTMENT if you want a real haircut? So I walked around looking like a caveman for a few days until my appointment date finally came. Scissors turned out to be nothing like I had expected. I didnt sense any of the snobbishness that pervades many of the salons my wife has been to and, although most clients were women, I was surprised to see several male customers sitting for regular old haircuts. I immediately felt at home. The haircut Joe gave me, despite my constant prodding ("No, dont cut there!" "Leave that part alone!") was easily the best Id had in about ten years. It actually had shape and the ends didnt look like they had been chopped off with a hack saw. I had forgotten that I wasnt just wearing a cheap hairpiece all those years. Ive had several additional cuts by Joe since then. Sometimes I convince him to do what I think is right -- and I am always wrong. Rather than flog me over the head about it, he always graciously takes me back in the chair a few days later and fixes it. Im not suggesting that you go to Scissors expecting your stylist to touch up your hair pro bono every few days; Im just pointing out that the people at Scissors want you to be happy and will do what they have to, within reason, to make that happen. The price for a haircut at Scissors, while more than twice what I was paying at the bargain hair cutter, is surprisingly reasonable compared to other salons in the area. During my years as a performing musician in the 1980 and early 90s, I used to pay $37 at a now defunct salon in Woodbury. All these years later, my haircuts at Scissors cost way less than that! Most importantly, they are worth every penny.

Dia who is the owner is extremely unprofessional. I visited her on St patrcks day she said she is been drinking since morning couldnt even stand straight!!!! she managed to die my hair half haphazardly leaving all my whites still white...I let it go. I went there again and what a mistake it was. I asked her to dye my roots brown. She turned my hair orangeish blonde. It was a nightmare!!!. then she tries to cover it with a toner.. it looked exactly the same!!! She was working on my hair for 2 hrs and still was orange, she does not know colors...She noted how horrible my hair was. Then she asked me if i am not happy i could go another time to fix it. I had to take time in my busy schedule and going through the process of correction for the third time. She did not even bother to check my hair to see how the correction turned out, my hair turned into Auburn!!! she didnt bother to even check my color and i was so frustrated that I left.She does not know colors and when she makes a mistake doesnt know how to fix it. Although all the respect to Joe who is so professional and called me apologizing for Dia and offered to fix the color.I AM NEVER GOING BACK THERE AGAIN.....

I followed the new owner, Dia to Scissors from her previous salon. I absolutely love her. She is an artist. I tell her vaguely what I want and she makes something sensational with it. Although I was disappointed that she moved to Syosset, since it is sort of a hike for me, Im going to continue going there. Ive never been so happy with my hair (and its easy, too!). The staff at Scissors is friendly and accommodating. They are also very good at scheduling me in for last minute appointments ("I just found out I have time this evening to get my hair done, you wouldnt be any chance be able to fit me in?" -- "yes" -- it is always "yes".) I cant comment on the other stylists competence, except that I usually see people leaving with very nice hair. :-) -- Sylvia

Had eyebrows tattooed by Annette. I brought a picture, she said she could do it, she drew them on, all was good. Until she tattooed. Then she just did whatever she wanted. The are not anything like I wanted. They are so high, I look mean. when I said something about them being so high, she said dont worry they are swollen it will be fine, and when I returned for a touch up, they would be like I wanted. Well, they did not change, they look horrible, and I will NOT BE LETTING woman touch me again. This is my face! Now I have to have them removed. I will not be doing this again. I was so excited to be finally having decent looking eyebrows, and this woman made me look like a freak!!!

When I started visiting Annette for my acne, she reassured me that she would improve my skin tone and get rid of the breakouts. I have seen a great improvement in my skin tone and breakouts are not as consistent as before. She does a great job in removing the white and breakheads leaving your skin looking great. My skin is looking much better from getting a facial from her. Thanks for your great work and professionalism.

Talented staff with outstanding experience in cut technique and color to get the hairstyle and look right. Worked with my natural hair texture to have the style I wanted. Professionals who have good client relations skills to build long term relationship, especially if my cut needs tweeking after I get home and try to style it myself without success.
