Fabio Scalia Salon - Brooklyn — Local services in New York

I don't like giving negative reviews. Before, I was impressed with the quality of staff and my experiences at Fabio Scalia.

I was a model for a haircut. It was supposed to be some version a long, layered cut. I'm extremely unhappy with the results. It was a dramatic change from what I had. The haircut looks terrible. The hairstyle is extremely difficult to maintain. There was almost no communication between the stylist and myself, in terms of what she was doing -- and the intended result.

I came with healthy, waist-length hair. I left with an ugly, nightmare haircut. Most of my hair was cut to a dramatic, bob-length layer. As she was cutting, there were 6"-12" segments, flying on my lap. There is easily a 12" difference between the longest and the shortest pieces. There were thin, stringy pieces towards the back.

The end result resembled some horror hybrid between a long version of "The Rachel" -- an 80's shag -- and escaped psychiatric patient from some horror movie. At minimum, it's absolute nightmare to style. It makes my natural, curly hair look like an electrified, sloppy mess. There was absolutely no prior discussion about my lifestyle, styling routine -- or what I was looking for.

I understand this was a haircutting class. However, it's also unreasonable to treat a human being like a mannequin. I really wish that the trainee stylist posted pictures of what she was trying to accomplish, both to inform prospective models -- and to find an appropriate candidate. It really sucks when the haircut is a drastic change -- and cannot really be corrected.

Sure, it's "just hair". But it will take 6-9 months to grow out. Meanwhile, I have to live with this ugly haircut. I'm also stuck using styling products -- and wearing my hair in a bun. My hair looks absolutely gross, even when tied back into a ponytail. I'm very upset -- and extremely disappointed. ...

I just left this salon, almost in tears. I broke up with my boyfriend today (im 40) and wanted to get a fresh haircut to lighten the mood. I called ahead to see about having some bangs cut, the receptionist was super kind and accommodating in getting me seen that day. I did notify them ahead of time that I wear hair IYKYK. I spoke to the young stylist who was sweet but obviously green. I had to swap hair (again IYKYK) during the consult to show how i needed the cut to match. mid cut i was DRILLLED in the mirror by two male stylist, literally i kid you not making petty frown faces of disgust at my hair and making comments which i couldn't white catch, their faces said it all, this was not a comment in passing - i had two men staring at me making seemingly nasty comments blatantly obvious to me in the mirror. I wanted to run out of there, anyone who wears hair knows how DIFFICULT it can be to feel confident exposing yourself in a public space. A salon should be a SAFE place to do so instead I was humiliated. Dont go to this salon if your looking to feel better about yourself. I have never in my life witnessed such petty disrespect and so obvious! Side note 0 the receptionist and stylist were nice. its the other male stylists (dont know their names) I think one was the owner....
