Amidst the hustle and bustle of SoHo you’ll find Andrea Lord Studio. The moment you step inside the ambiance strikes the right chord. It’s a tastefully designed space that feels both stylish and genuinely welcoming. The carefully chosen photo prints on the walls and the abundance of healthy plants create a calming, positive atmosphere. And the rotating playlists are always a vibe.
Beyond the inviting environment one of the other gems at Andrea Lord Studio is Rita. She possesses that unmistakeable New Yorker energy. A real one. She’s lived through the city’s many changes time and time again. I like to do the same with my hair throughout the year. From edgier summer fades to an adjusted hair length for the holidays, Rita always listens and executes. She gives insightful suggestions when needed to prep in between each cut. The most memorable haircut being for my wedding last summer which had me feeling special and most of all confident.
Appointments with Rita have shifted from a routine necessity to something I look forward to. Catching up with a friend more than just a service transaction. If you’re searching for a barber who combines skills with a memorable personality I can’t recommend...
Read moreAndrea is a true artist that brings attention and detail to her work which truly shows in the finished product. I couldn’t be happier with the cuts she given me. I leave pumped up with energy and feeling amazing about my look and life. I have long hair and I’m an actor so my hair is very important to me- which in the past finding someone who could do the job to my liking has been tricky to say the least! (I’ve been to over 15 people without returning to any). That being said, I never need to look again- I’m going to Andrea for life- she communicates as she works and I see clearly why she is cutting, layering, styling with literally every single hair. The studio itself is also warm, inviting with a great vibe and killer music to relax to while I’m getting my cut…. Which truly helps! To top it all off Andrea is just a great human being to be around and our conversations are seamless. When I need a haircut (which I don’t even like calling it that with Andrea, it’s an experience) but needless to say….I know where I’m going and who I’m trusting with my...
Read moreI’ve been getting my hair cut in NYC for the last 8 years. And throughout those years I’ve lost count as to how many barbers I’ve visited. That’s until 2 years ago. I’ve been going to Andrea for the past 2 and I don’t plan on ever changing. You’re not just going to get the best haircut, you’re truly going to get a personalized experience. Andrea has planned a few different styles for me over the years and every time I sit in that chair, she gives 110%. She’s never altered once, never rushed. She cares so much about making you feel your best self, and succeeds every time. And her studio is incredible. The vibe is perfect. The quality and style is perfect. I truly can’t say enough great things. But if none of this review worked, she has a dog Charlie who hangs and she’s...
