Hair East - Utica (NY)

Trista Kealy First impressions are important, especially for a small/local business. Though I’ve known my stylist Mae for 20+ years, this is the first time I have visited this location. The outdoor styling of the establishment, the fun colors of the bricks, the painted mural that serves as the businesses sign… it’s all comfortable and inviting in my opinion. The first thing you see as soon as you crack open the front door, is some funky cool 70s era wallpaper. Stepping in to the salon, you feel a warm and inviting vibe. The ‘waiting area’ is comfy couches, cool music plays, and you’re greeted with a smile. Typically, it’s expected to be slightly uncomfortable when getting your hair shampooed. It’s usually a given. Not here. Even the shampoo bowl is comfortable. I got my hair cut and styled. My hair has been rough since my pregnancy and I wanted to feel more like ‘me’ again. I’ve noticed recently that it is starting to have the (minimal) texture it used to. Mae took her time, and brought as much of that texture out as was possible. And I love it. It has volume again. It has waves, and the random spiral curl, again. I feel more like myself. If you were contemplating booking an appointment here, stop contemplating and do it. You won’t be disappointed. They have a multitude of services meant for every style and texture of hair. They do basic cuts, braids, curly cuts, color. Anything you could want or need! So what are you waiting for?

I-DO-REVIEWS Great place, great owners. Very professional and affordable. Love the fact that it goes by appointments so no long waits, ever. Highly recommend to everyone.

Sara Garlock I have been going to Sarah for years now. She did my hair for my wedding and my entire bridal party and it was flawless. She made the whole getting ready process very stress-free!! She also is my hair stylist and she has educated me on ways to style my thick curly hair. I always hated my hair till I learned how to correctly do my hair and my hair has never looked so good! Definitely would highly recommend Salon One!!!

Dan Stedman Linda has been cutting my hair for over two years now and has done a wonderful job of getting the style and cut right. I go in about 2 a month or 2 every other month and she remembers my name and the style of cut I like.

Judy Sargent Great people, Great Service and Very Talented! Always do a Wonderful job ❤

kawtriples Ive been a customer for 40+ years. That should summarize how good they are. Highly recommended!!!

Serina Dorsagno We were married 7/1 and hired Christina D. & Julia as the hairdressers to do updos on 8 girls. Everyone looked GREAT! The hair was in place all night, despite dancing and sweating! They showed up to the venue on time and ready to get it done! They were personable , fun, and most reasonably priced! The girls truely were an asset to the day!

Jones Gregory (MYGBE) The prices are right an the service is Top Notch.

Cheri Myers Alison was wonderful, she has a great personality and did exactly what I expected to have done to my hair! She chopped about 8 inches off my hair and straightened it! Its so much easier to take care of and I absolutely love it!
