I come here for an emergency blowouts if I am going out after work. I loved all my blowouts so far. Not sure if its the way they shampoo/blow it, but my hair looks voluminous and super clean and shiny! And you cant beat the price of $20.00 which is decent in the city. I have went to those blowdry bars that cost $60.00 and it didnt even last, and honestly did not even look as good. Convenient location too .
Great nail job, good service, and great music. Highly recommend going in for a good pedicure.
A good salon to go to for an affordable haircut. Shampoo also came with a free 5 min massage which was nice.
A good experience!! 💖 Did a walk-in shampoo+cut on a Saturday afternoon and was taken in with a roughly 5-10 min wait. Was pleasantly surprised by the neck massage before they washed my hair. Like other reviews say, there is a bit of a language barrier if you don’t speak Chinese, but I was able to communicate with my stylist Sam just fine using a few reference pictures and got what I wanted for $35+tip! ✨ (For context: I asked for a soft take on a wolfcut + curtain bangs and I have silky/thin hair with a slight natural curl/wave)
My girlfriend got the worst haircut I have ever seen. It is an absolute hack job. Seriously, it is unbelievably bad, just look at the attached photo. She asked for 3” off and the guy cut around 10” off, and it was nowhere close to even. Just look at the photo if you want an idea of how your hair will look after you go here.
I searched where to get a cheap haircut in the area, and this won, I spent $15 pre-tip for a haircut and a wash. The haircut itself (barber #6) was a little uneven in areas by my right ear and behind my head.
Im so disappointed! I am a super loyal customer here, because my husband has been fixing his hair here, and I have become a customer here from the Japanese hair salon before. However yesterday I took my friend here to do hair straighten, they burned my friend’s hair! half of the hair fell out, they did not test the client ointment before it, which causing the ointment to instantly scorch her hair. The most unacceptable point is the owner’s attitude. From the beginning of my friend’s hair burn, the owner has been making excuses and reasons. She pushed the mistakes on my friend, and kept imposing unfactual incidents on her, saying that she had bleached her hair too much. But my friends didn’t bleach her hair at all. Maybe they saw it later, and they started to change their words and said that it was because she used high temperature to straighten the board at home. Anyway, we looked for various reasons, and then we reacted to the situation with the owner when we were ready to check out. , The owner said that we didn’t want to pay, and continued to shift the responsibility to the guests. She also reprimanded my friend and said: Then whose fault do you think it is? I really can’t accept a shop where they treat customers as take advantage, and I said that my friend didn’t want to get angry at the beginning, and it’s good that she hasn’t lost her temper all the time, just want to hear a sincere apology. But the owner said that my friend endured the hair because he hadnt finished the hair at the time, and didnt want to pay after finishing the hair. I dont want to come to this store now. Im so angry, no wonder they have fewer and fewer guests and staff.
Its a good hair salon cheap I mean you get what you pay for. Because I had to go back the 2 times I went because they didnt cut it evenly at all. I showed them a picture of what I wanted and ask the stylist opinion if it good for my round face etc, so she literally just told me yeah yeah look nice as Im asking which one plus showing her the way I want it cut. At the end wasnt what I wanted at all. She tried blaming it on because my hair was dry. And when I went back for a second try I did a wash 1 mins massage shampoo conditioner and cut with blow dry with another stylist and showed him 3 different pictures explaining how I want it. Look nice but when I went home and looked at it closer sure enough uneven and cut to much hair off nd then not the style I wanted at all in the back or the sides. I went back complained and its really a language barrier but the owner he literally comes over and explains what you want or what they messed up when I went back. So very frustrating because its very clean nice massage but who wants to go to a salon that u can even talk to the stylist about what he/she thinks would be good for my face shape and ho to style it even with a translator.
This is always where I want to go to get my hair cut! The staff is so sweet and you get a free 5-minute massage with your shampoo. Every time Ive had my hair cut here its turned out exactly like the picture I brought in. 10/10
Initial waiting time is about an hour while we were told to be 15 min. In total takes about 2 hours, while the actual hair cut is less than 15 min with the rest waiting on the chair inside.
Great customer service, wonderful staff who treat you very well and give great neck massage after washing, and my color looks amazing! They even give you a punch card to lead up to a free haircut! Highly recommended.
Came here today on an early afternoon. Ive been getting my haircuts here periodically for the past 5-6 years and my experiences have always ranged from average to excellent. Barbers here never seem to stay long so it was difficult to develop any sort of long-term relationship with any one barber, but at $12 pre-tip and walk-in availability, it was worth it. Pro tip: the place offers an amazing $18 wash + massage + cut combo but be mindful youll have to tip the lady who massaged you as customary to most Chinese hair stylists in the Chinatown neighborhood.My 2-star rating today is primarily directed towards my barber Sam. My entire haircut lasted a generous 7 minutes from the time I sat down to when I paid. He rushed through the entire process: he used a single clipper length on my sides and back despite me showing him a photo of the fade I wanted. He didnt spray water on my hair or even ask me how much I wanted off the top before chopping away. At the end of the very short haircut, he finally uttered a single word: Okay? When I asked him to grab the handheld mirror so I could see the back of my head, he begrudgingly obliged. I cant even imagine what the experience would have been like if I didnt speak Chinese.To be fair, the haircut wasnt terrible but there are a few noticeable rough patches where he rushed (sideburns, corners of my scalp). Mostly, my negative review is aimed at Sams poor attitude and lack of customer service. I wont be coming back here anytime soon.
Great experience here! I got a perm and the woman who did my hair was SO nice, helpful, and knowledgeable. The whole staff was really friendly and professional. They also gave me a massage while my hair was drying and played good music, so the 4+ hours I spent here for the perm were super enjoyable. Definitely coming back.
My boyfriend and I paid like $40 each for choppy haircuts 😭😭😭
I’m sitting here in the salon chair as I write this review. I decided to accompany a friend while she received a wash and blow dryer. I had no intention on getting my hair done. However, as soon as you enter, you are greeted right away and the man in the front was extremely welcoming. He convinced me to join my girlfriend for a wash and blow dry. I was glad I did. What a unique experience! They start you off with a shoulder and neck massage, they then complete a preliminary wash as you are seated . You are later moved to a sink to continue your wash. They are doing a great job and the price is right. Totally recommend.
Quick service and hair cut with wash is just $10.
Ladies STAY AWAY!!! I had the most horrible haircut ever. Hair was hacked off in a choppy manner. I noticed it was iffy when the stylist did not see my hair on eye level during cutting. Then when I asked for layering, he just started going through my hair chopping off bits of my hair like shark teeth style. It is the most choppy, ridiculously unprofessional haircut Ive ever gotten. It would have been better for me to to cut my own hair
I get my quick trims here. I love the way they wash my hair here, first half is sitting upright and they give a few minutes of a massage too. Their cuts are quick and easy but they dont speak much English. Averages around 30-40 for wash dry and cut.
Beware for long hair. Ive been growing my hair out for three years and have always wanted to have really long hair. My ends were looking dry so I went in and asked for a ONE INCH trim, and the guy ended up cutting off FIVE INCHES even though I said over and over again that I only wanted an inch off. My hair used to be to my waist and now it barely even hits mid chest :( This is gonna take me an entire year to grow out. Fair prices and good massage/wash but please be careful if you have long hair.
They reopened! Need to call to book an appointment.The massage was cut short now, but you still got a little extra work when they wash your hair. The hairdresser listens to your requirement nicely and does a good job! Fiat Chinatown price so no complaint.Limited people in store and you are taken temperature check before entering the store. Plus, you need to wear a mask all the time.
I don’t think they can style hair here. There was no change to my hairstyle after the guy supposedly cut my hair. I don’t know exactly what he did. At least I have a chance to go to real hairstylist to get my hair fixed this time.And be careful. They will not tell you how much they’ll charge you until you’re ready to leave. And the owner will point out to you to tip those who served you. I like the neck massage prior to the haircut. I told people I know that the place is bogus. How I ended up there is due to reviews too. I’ve learned my lesson. Be very careful everyone.
I have been patronizing Mian Tian Sing hair salon since 2013 and I continue to receive exceptional service. I usually opt for a wash and cut and this is priced fairly at $20.00. A complimentary scalp and shoulder massage is offered as part of the wash. There is always a hair stylist on standby to cut so you can expect to be in and out in 30-45 minutes.I recommend coming early on weekends or later on weekday evenings as there can be a wait during peak times. For first timers be sure to tip both the washer and hair stylist. If you are after an affordable haircut in a welcoming salon then look no further than Mian Tian Sing.
So here is the deal. The shampoo and blowouts are fantastic. Love the little massage (though the towels can be smelly) and they do a great blow out! However, do *not* come here for a haircut. They literally do not know how to cut hair and ruined my hair twice (i really gave two chances!)
Why on earth did I not know of this place for so long!? Non-fancy looking hair salon that provides a great hair-cut experience and heres why!* The shampoo before the hair-cut includes a 5-min neck and back massage.* They start shampooing while youre still comfortably seated in front of the mirror and build the froth while giving you a nice head massage! Never seen this anywhere else.* Dirt cheap prices* Courteous and efficient staff. They work for tips, so they put in extra effort to give you the best possible result. Since my hairs rough and bushy, he took care for thinning it by reducing the underlying layers and straightened my hair without any extra charge!* The owner and the staff understand English, so its easier to interact with them unlike most Chinatown salons and spas.Overall, a great hair-cut experience thats more like a spa for really affordable prices. They also give you a stamp card to get help you keep track of 10 visits and get a free hair-cut on the 11th. No reservations needed and theres never a wait time. I should add a caveat that this place is in Chinatown after-all, so dont expect a fancy decor.
Hands down the best haircut/perm I’ve ever had. Staff are very friendly and the atmosphere is welcoming. Will 100% be returning!
Massage is phenomenal here. Love it. The tech rubbed out all my aches in my wrist and arms. Followed with a relaxing hair wash. 😌
This is no longer the place to go for haircuts. I went last week and asked for a cut in the same style but shorter. The barber did not comb, wash, or even wet my hair before cutting away. He basically just cut an inch of hair off every side of my head.No styling, no layering, no finishing touches on the edges. I was there for less than 15 minutes including the post-cut wash.Maybe it was just my barber but I didn’t even get the pre-cut massage
I love a bargain and this hair salon is definitely a bargain. But This is also one of those places where the term you get what you pay for is so true. I came here to get a haircut only, without the shampooing. When you walk in, a man, possibly the owner/boss asks you what you want to do. I told him just haircut, so he calls one of the hairstylists over to cut my hair. Cant remember the name of the guy I had, but he was very nice. He spoke very little English. Luckily I speak Cantonese, which he can understand, but cannot communicate back to me as he can only speak mandarin. No big deal. I just showed him a picture of the type of hairstyle I want and the length and he understood what I wanted. He was very careful as he was cutting my hair. But I can also tell that he was an amateur and is still in the process of learning. I could tell in the way he was layering my hair and trying to cut it evenly and straight. FYI the hairstyle I was going for was a long bob. Nothing too complicated. I mainly went because my ends were extremely damaged from a double bleaching done by a different salon. Anyway, I was happy with the results. Then when I went to pay, the lady said something in mandarin which sounded like haircut? Then I nodded my head, and she charged me $30. I thought this was a little pricy, but I didnt mind. Then as I got to the bottom of the stairs, she ran after me and asked me if I did shampoo and haircut. In my head, I was thinking oh no, I have to pay more?! After we cleared that up, she said come back up here so I went back up the stairs and she gave me back $10 because she overcharged me. I think my hair stylist was the one that told her. Im so glad she did this because this made an average experience into a really good experience. She couldve easily kept the $10 for herself but she didnt. Honesty in people is so hard to find these days. I would definitely come back here for a haircut next time.
Had a cut and perm awhile back here. Never noticed any difference with the perm, maybe due to the fact that I had shoulder length hair? And for some unknown reason, they cut my inner back of the neck hair one inch long so when I tied up my hair I looked ridiculous.
Average China town hair salon however the main difference is that they do offer a very comfortable neck massage prior to washing your hair/cutting. Prices are slightly on the above average side. I felt that the hair cut was a bit rushed though
Very cheap and good quality haircut. Bring a photo of what you want as they dont speak much English here. Place isnt exactly state of the art, but every time I go I love my haircut and spend a little over $10.Most places in downtown Manhattan charge $20 or more for mens haircuts, and dont even give good quality ones. Ive already told all my friends to come here, been going for months and loving it!
Good, quick service, even on a Saturday! Probably the only place that does not charge extra for cutting my long hair (which never made sense to me anyway, considering theyre taking it off, not adding it on!) - very reasonably priced at that. They always do exactly what I ask. Just make sure you have cash to tip the hair washer and stylist- the owner will hold you to it!
Overall: 4 / 5Great haircuts at low prices with good service. Be careful of pressure on tipping however.The Cut: 5/5Very FAST cutting... literally the fastest haricut Ive gotten. The guy Brian is fast but the results are quite decent :) No complaints here, 5/5 on this part.Value: 4/5$18 for cut and wash for a guy. Thats great value.HOWEVER, the pressure for tipping leads to it being more expensive unless you resist. And if you resist, then what happens to your hair next time if they remember? :PService: 3/5When I went in I asked for the price, and was told $28. Then the person ran off and came back a minute later to say $18. Confusing but yay for lower price? :) However I noticed that when a non-Chinese person walked in they were noticeably nicer to them. This is a Chinese place, theres no reason for them to treat Chinese worse than others.They do a massage and shampoo your hair, then shift you to the back to wash. The shampoo and wash are typical. The massage is a nice extra tho! :)The cut itself, the stylist didnt talk much but he did a good job.Then comes the second bad part. After I finish paying the cashier didnt say anything. I walk over to my stylist and offer him $5 as a tip (27% tip)... the cashier suddenly yells at me What about the shampoo girl? You need to pay her! Shes over there. Like seriously? Tipping is an OPTIONAL practice. I like the haircut so I offer him a tip as thanks. I was so surprised I hand over an extra $2 (bringing the tip total to $7 on a $18 haircut, or 38% tip!). Seriously, I am against this expectation of tipping... its optional and always should be optional. Especially when I offer a 27% tip voluntarily, its pretty rude to yell and ask for more.
I had a great experience at this salon. A haircut, shampoo, blowdry and straightening costed 32 bucks w/o tip. I got a neck and head massage too! The stylists were very meticulous, patient and polite. Will definitely visit again!
The staff were very courteous and polite. I loved the hairwash in the chair and the neck massage. As for the haircut itself, the layers were choppy and uneven and the stylist did not show me the back when he was done. Still, he spent a decent amount on time working on my hair and was very courteous. I chalked it up to the fact that he only spoke Mandarin so thats on me.5/5 customer service2/5 haircut
Pretty dang good. I brought in a photo of the hair cut I wanted and I never get the same cut. They were on point!The back massage and shampoo massage is an awesome touch.$30...cant beat that. Dont forget to tip your shampoo-er too!
Awful. Just Awful. I had had my hair blown out there a few times and I was satisfied, however, I recently went there and a woman, I believe she was the owners wife did my hair. She talked me into a color touch up. What happened next was out of a horror movie-my hair fell out. The color, which was to be an ash blonde, was yellow, like a canary. My hair looked like a mullet cut due to all hair fall out. I was in shock. It was late on a Sunday and I was the last one in salon. When I went to complain, they suddenly didn’t speak English. I am totally disgusted with this salon that offers services that they are not qualified to do.
Definitely worth the money! Great massages and friendly service. You will get a shampoo sitting straight up! That was cool! When it was time to check out I got a price of $61 and some change for a haircut, mani, and pedi. Good price! I tipped the two individuals that did my service in cash very nicely might I add and paid for the rest on my card. When I looked at my bank statement I saw that $66 was charged instead of the $61. Not complaining however I would make sure to pay cash next time. It very check price and maybe they took out a store gratuity or something. I would go again tho...
This place completely ruined my hair. They speak no English at all, they pretended to understand when I asked to add highlights and they added a strange orange color that I’ve been trying to correct for almost a year. My hair is damaged, and the color is so weird. My current stylist have been trying their best to correct the color and it’s just not working. I called to ask what brand of products they use and they couldn’t tell me, no one could understand that all I wanted to know is what brand of products do they use.
Not the cleanest place. Reasonably priced. Most of the stylists do a decent job. Caught the male owner writing his own reviews on yelp. The reason I come here is for the 10 min neck and shoulder massage that you get with your haircut.
Amazing haircuts for the price. Ive been going here for 5 years and Ive never had a bad experience. Head and shoulders massage included with a shampoo. You wont get a better value.
First of all, the outcome of my haircut is completely different from the picture I showed to the stylist (the picture was me so its not realistic whatsoever). His excuse was that its impossible to do the hairstyle I showed him. However he didnt mention that before we got started even though I did ask him if he wanted to recheck the picture. The stylist was kind of delusional, when I showed him the picture he was like thats not decent looking as if I needed his opinion.The environment is not good, the capes they use still have many other costumers hairs on it. The comb looked dirty as well.They seemed pretty busy, but thats not the excuse for me waiting 10 minutes for someone to blow dry while my hair is still wet. During the perming no one came to check my hair.The customer service is probably the most awful Ive ever experienced. The stylist screwed up my hair, but instead of apologizing, the manager(or owner) told me to stop lashing out when all I did was to ask them to talk to me before they starting doing my hair next time. Eventually with hostile attitude she made me cry, she said that she couldnt believe I ruined the day of that stylist as if I dont have to face a few months of awkward haircut. Another costumer was complaining too but I guess because shes American so they didnt say anything back.After all this they charged $160… the stylist did apologize and had a decent attitude but the owner/manager was just rude, impatience and acting ugly by giving me side eyes.I dont recommend this salon to anyone, pricy and horrible.
Pretty standard hair salon in Chinatown. They do, however, give a mini massage on your neck first then wash your hair. I went in for a trim, but they do ask if you want your hair to be blow dried and then flat ironed, which I opted out. Overall a good experience.
For $15 you get a massage, your hair washed and blown out. Yes - $15. And when I say hair washed - your hair will be the cleanest it can be. The message and hair wash portion takes just as long as the blow out. They are that thorough. For an extra treat, spend an extra $5 for a face wash and massage.Some things to get used to... After sitting you at a station, they massage your neck and shoulders and while youre still sitting they begin to shampoo your hair - while youre still upright. After a thorough massaging of the shampoo, they move you to another room on these reclined chairs/beds and wash/shampoo some more. This is where you would get your face washed / massaged too. Then they move you to the blow out station.If youre like me and have bangs, that $15 will include a bang trim. Such a deal!
I love it the owner is great, and the worker are awesome. The keratin was not done wrong I called the owner a week later and he made it right and had the girl do it over with no charge. I recommend them to everyone you even get a small massage with your hair cut.
This place is awesome- the staff is very nice and listen to every request you have. They have tons of different options, and their hair washes are so soothing. Fairly spacious studio, nice staff, really affordable prices, professional cuts. I live quite far away from there but Ive been going here for years.
My go to hair cut spot. Few things for dudes. $30 including tip, massage and $5 for a face wash, my firend loved it. For gal, $45 or so for anything you want probably and above. Also they offer a gift card system which is a good deal. Call ahead for a not so busy time.
Do not recommend. My brother went here to get a haircut and came back looking like he went through a shredder. He had gone into this barber shop and his hair was done by a man of a short stature and was located at number 5. My brother had got a hair cut he didn’t like and he could not see the back. Thus after he saw how bad his hair was he wanted the barber to fix the back, after paying. The barber, on his break, became very intense and angry and proceeded to roughly cut the back of his hair and he gave him many bald spots. Note to him is that if you want to be in the service industry you probably need to fix your attitude and be able to lose a couple minutes of your lunch break to fix one of your customers hair.
This was the best money I ever spent. It was quick. I was in and out. The neck and scalp massage was awesome. I felt like a new woman when I walked out. My hair is silkyyyy. I didn’t get the name of the guy who did my hair but he definitely finessed my hair
Good, quick service. If you do the haircut/shampoo combo, you get a 10 min shoulder/head massage and shampoo. All of it for probably less than the price of a haircut at other barbers/salons in Manhattan.
Terrible place. Kept telling my stylist what I wanted and he kept telling me no good, my way is better. Then he said the haircut would look better after a hair wash. I accepted but all he did was rinse my hair, nothing more. Then when I was about to leave and went to the guy manning the register he tells me $20 but after seeing me glare at him corrected himself to $15 (price of a haircut and wash). Total scam, this place. Maybe come here if youre a Cantonese speaker but I think they try to scam everyone else with bad service and inflated prices to see who would fall for it. I guess you get what you pay for.
Mian Tian is excellent value for money, but what really stands out is the quality of the haircut - I have yet to be disappointed with the finish. The additional perks make this place a 5* establishment: your haircut comes with an excellent head, neck and shoulder massage and includes a pre-cut and post-cut shampoo/rinse for the price of a regular haircut elsewhere in Manhattan. I have returned a number of times and would recommend this place to my friends. The level of English varies among the staff, although I speak Chinese so do not have an issue with this. Peter is great and now recognizes me as a regular!A top tip: grab one of their business cards to get a free haircut on your 11th visit! The have also recently introduced a discounted pre-pay option.
Do not go here for waxing!! I came to get a brazillian and my eyebrows waxed and the lady TOOK OFF my eyebrows so I had tiny strips left. I used to have beautiful full eyebrows but now I look sick!! I felt like she wanted to mess with me and even left all the little hairs i originally wanted gone.The brazillian wax is patchy with bumps. I have been crying and crying.
I came here because I read pretty good reviews online and was drawn by the incredibly cheap prices for basic services (i.e. I did not want to pay £100 for a blowdry and polish change),and the fact that it was walking distance from where I was staying in the LES. The salon is in Chinatown so I was not expecting a luxury spa, and actually the salon itself was bright and spacious to my surprise. However, no one I dealt with spoke English (despite the presence of many non-Chinese customers) and I ended up with a stylist who had no clue how to do a basic blowdry on my curly but very soft and manageable hair. After a frustrating 30 minutes of watching him weakly holding the brush and my hair getting puffy and frizzy (not to mention I had to detangle my own hair as he simply could not hold onto the brush), I asked for another stylist. The new stylist also spoke zero English but seemed to be more comfortable with the brush in his hand so I relaxed for a minute - which was too soon as he proceeded to burn my forehead with the back of the blowdryer. I have no idea how that is even possible, but yet it happened, and I yelped in pain and he just laughed nervously and continued to blowdry my hair. I asked serveral times for ice or a cold compress, and just more nervous laughter from the stylist till I stood up myself and walked to the back of the salon where they wash hair and had to use sign/body language to explain to the ladies sitting there that I had a first degree burn and needed a cold compress immediately. Horrible experience and the manager did not seem to care at all. The only reason I am giving two stars instead of zero is because of the lady who did my nails, she did a decent polish change. Side note - a meddling customer thought it was his job to give me some words of wisdom « you are in Chinatown, this place is catered to Chinese people » - cute advice but this is NYC, if services are advertised in English then it is fair game for all who can read the sign. Enter at your own risk.
Cannot rave enough about my first time at Mian Tian Sing Hair Salon! I was lucky enough to have Richard as my stylist, and I could not have asked for a better cut and experience. Richard was such a pleasure to spend the morning with-not only did I leave feeling like a million bucks, he was so friendly and fun as well! I went into Mian Tian Sing Hair Salon this morning for a haircut and ended up having a really lovely Sunday morning. I definitely recommend Mian Tian Sing Hair Salon and Richard if youre looking for a salon in NYC-it has 4 stars for a reason!
Asked for a haircut and got it with a massage which I didnt ask for. The massage took most of the time whereas the haircut (short hair, not much needed) was done in a couple of minutes and thats how it looked - had to finish some parts at home. Also I had hair everywhere after the cutting. Be careful what you ask for so that youre not charged by the unrequested services. I dont recommend.
My two experiences so far have been exactly what I needed for an excellent price. Traditional Asian hair service involving hair wash and short massage. Relatively fast service. May need to know Chinese to get exactly what youd like.
Back in the city and went back to my old hair salon. Its still as amazing as I remembered, I love the back rub and shampooing before the haircut!
The worst the hair salon I have been to in NYC. Their massage wasnt bad. But their stylist TONY doesnt know how to communicate with his customer. The final results of my hair cut even not straight. I will not go to there again and not recommend other people go.
This place is incredibly cheap for what they offer. You get a nice head neck and shoulders massage and shampooing along with a haircut for the same amount as a minimal haircut elsewhere. Employees dont speak the best English, but what do you expect. This is Chinatown, live it up!
I love the haircuts here! They are quick and perfect. Gotta love Asia! And great price for New York. Note: bring cash as they charge a fee for anything under thirty dollars.
Ive been coming here for many years and usually get a consistently good cut (turnover is pretty high, so hard to stick with one stylist). However, they have recently raised their prices quite a bit (from $15 to $18 and then to $20 for a mens haircut)
Finding a good hair dresser in the city can be hard, but Mian Tian makes getting a haircut more of a treat-yoself occasion than a chore.Located in the heart of Chinatown, this 2nd floor hair salon delivers quality service at extremely affordable prices.A blow-dry and cut, accompanied by a head/shoulder massage and hair wash, will run guys $18 and gals $25 (but dont quote me on that). All of their staff members are professionals from either China or Taiwan, so you know they are ahead of the curve when it comes to the latest styles and trends.Their English is serviceable, but Id recommend bringing a picture of the cut you want, just to be sure.Anyways, quality haircuts for the cheap is Mian Tians claim to fame!
They do a good job for the price, especially love the massage. They do have weird practices like asking you to tip the hair washer and the stylist separately.
It is pretty good and reasonable price haircut saloon. Plus u can ask for punch card and after 9th times u go there u can get 1 free haircut for free (including hair wash and hair cut)
Horrible and overpriced. The most expensive pedicure Ive gotten in my life and the service sucked. The foot massage was lame. They didnt even put lotion on my feet after scrubbing them. Avoid at all costs.
Such good service. 20$ gets you massage , amazing hair wash. And ask for Leo he does incredible blow dry. Best place in New York City.
Thanks to all the reviews on google, Ive decided to give Capriese a try.He was such a nice and sweet stylist and so very charismatic....We talked through the trim since I wanted to keep the length and he made several suggestions. He styled it really nice and I told him that Ill never be able to replicate the same and he gave me some hints to blowdry and style it at home with a paddle brush....Thanks, Yelp and Capriese!
$20 for shampoo & styling! What a great bargain! The neck massage before the hair wash was phenomenal! Highly recommended!
Very good haircuts at reasonable prices . I got a complete transformation here in terms of a haircut in under $30 . They include shampoo and head massage too !
My favorite hair place ever. Been going to them for years and years and never once an issue. Great staff, amazing prices and awesome results every time. I cant say enough good things about them.
Fastest and (somehow) best haircut Ive received in NYC. Its a little shop in Chinatown but its great. It helps to speak Chinese, though, since the barbers dont speak very fluent English
Love the haircuts. They give you a neck massage and a amazing pampering shampoo experience before the cut. Great value for money.
Decent haircut for a cheap price, I suggest if you want anything fancy done make sure to book ahead with a stylist you trust, quality of cut definitely depends on the stylist.
Came here for a wash and dry and let me just said that OMG!! The lady that washed my hair was so amazing, she did a little massage before washing and during washing had like a scalp massage 😁
They have walk in. I went and they sitted me immediately. I showed the hairstylist a picture and he cutted it exactly the same. It was cheap and fast so definitely will be coming back again
Absolute worse eyebrow waxing I have EVER had!! I described in detail how I wanted a touch up and they thinned out my eyebrows like crazy!! Also they took weird chunks out of my eyebrows. This will take me months and months to grow back out. NEVER GET YOUR EYEBROWS WAXED HERE!!!!!
I received an excellent brazilian wax, a ten minute shoulder rub, the most thorough shampooing and a beautiful sexy blowout all for $50. Unless Im in a huge hurry I will never go anywhere else.
Solid mens haircut for $17.
I got my hair straighten, but after a week I notice I still have lots of curly hair, literally no change at all. very disappointed. But the stuff was friendly
Prepare to wait. With 1 person ahead of me, it took 35 min before my cut. Not enough barbers
Asked for a french bob, got an asian bowl cut with baby bangs while in the picture I referenced , the bangs are longer than eyebrows. Yea basically ruined my whole summer within an hour.
Today is my birthday and I came very late but they welcomed me and gave me the perfect haircut. Jimmy was my hairstylist and I recommend him to everyone.
Service was great. The best scalp massage and hair wash ever. And the blow dry was excellent! Price was great!
Excellent service. I have been using their service for 6 years. Never disappointed. Always go for massage, shampoo, facial and haircut. Very relaxing and rejuvenating.
Stylist no.3 was very rude when cutting my hair, and he still kept his rude attitude after I complained, had to call his boss at the end and switched to another stylist. Not gonna go again in the future.
Have been going here for 7 years. Its the absolute best and a hidden gem in NYC. Such good prices and excellent service. Theyre awesome.
My new favorite salon. Im pretty picky about a haircut, but this place does a perfect job every time.
Worst experience ever. The woman who did neck rub give me serious scratch and red dots! And after that I came out with a brand new stupid hairstyle, even though I showed the guy a picture to explain what I really want.
Spent 20 plus tip for a hair cut, washing and shoulder massage. Well spent
Fast service. I wish they didnt have a minimum for credit card. Make sure to bring some cash if youre only getting a hair cut.
No English$20 for an incomplete haircut.No razorNo shape upStill got hair on my faceManager gave an attitude after complaining
Good hairdresser for men asian hair. Ask for Jason. Good massage before the Shampoo. And Cheap 15-20$ !
Pretty decent service and prices for hair cut... Very recommend.
The barber on booth 10 will shave you hair no matter what style you want. He will force you to get bald, and rudely force you to give 20% tip
Ive been going here for nearly two years and I love that I can go in and get a cut, color, and style for under $60... and its quality!
We terrible the worst customer service they never even got to me they just left me sitting there I came up three times they kept saying it will be one more minute finally I had to go back to work since I was on my lunch hour and couldnt wait any longer I went all the way there after reading good reviews I had to leave without even having a service
This receptionist is rude and doesn’t know to treat people. I told them I had to leave and as they took forever to help me. When I came back they told me that they can’t do my eyebrows as they had 5 employees standing around doing nothing... worst salon ever.
Come support local businesses in china town!Amazing service! Great hair stylist!
Really cool experience. will come back
Solid place for a haircut, includes massage and wash. Staff is a bit pushy with the tips at the end though.
Typical Chinese salon. Good for a decent and cheap haircut. Communication with the hairdressers is a major issue
$18 dollars for a cut, wash, and massage. Thats a deal. They also offer a stamp card.
Professional and fast. Staff is nice. Head shampoo and neck massage were amazing.
Incredibly fast and efficient, average quality haircut, for a relatively low price
Been coming here for over five years. Reasonably priced for the services you get. Very fast service. Sometimes you have to wait depending on when you go in.
Very bad cutting service
Cheap, quick and great haircuts if youre a guy! Cant speak for the ladies
Great and fast service. For less than $20, you can get in and out in 15min with a great cut.
Best Service. Always get my nails done here. Service comes with a great massage.
Great value, also get a scalp and shoulder massage as part of your haircut.
Great place for haircut. Ive been coming here every month for the past 2 years
People who cat hair dont listen to what you say, for example I didnt wanted him to dry my hair, he did it anyway, had to jump pot if a chair.
As your getting your hair washed your getting a massage like no other from head to back n neck !!
Stylists who dont have great English but know what they are doing. Its actually a great value.
Worst hair salons ever.Don’t go.Take my words and you will thank me.
Cheap place to get a haircut or a perm. Don’t expect them to be too friendly/welcoming though.
Fast and reliable. For guys having haircuts, I recommend stylist Leo.
Had the haircut number 2 for $12 in about 15 minutes. Looks good.
Many different stores
Who cares about the language barrier?! As long as you bring a photo of the style you want, all you have to do is sit back and relax.
Great haircut good service!
The worst experience I have ever had！
Excellent head massage/shampoo. Cutting was efficient.
Amazing blow out. Head and shoulder massage. I will be back. A LOT
Got my hair done here a few times and it came out well. Thank you.
In and our really quick. cheap cuts. The place is like a factory.
Good place for a quick and cheap haircut.
Good place for hair cut and massage
Five star service and five star price. Worth to give it a try.
They do an excellent job and the price is right.
Its okay, but definitely deserve all the hype that it gets
Great haircut with a wash/massage.
For the price that they charge, this place is good enough
Great prices and the staff is amazing.
Sometimes good, but the No.7 right now is not good
Overcharged and rude customer service, I will never come back again...
Absolutely the worst haircut ever.
This place is the best!
They are so kind and good skilled
Stable service and quality
Allan #Seat6 @ MTS Salon Thank you

Tell me about my experience in this store. First of all, when I arrived at the store, I asked how long I could get a haircut, and I was told that I would have to queue for 10-20 minutes. Then waited an hour and 20 minutes to be heard. The aunt who cut the hair was very nice, but the haircut was very bad. I said that the sides were cut a little shorter and the top was cut a little shorter, and my aunt pushed me into a green skin as soon as I faded. The cut is really huge and short, and it doesnt look good at all... (but my aunt thinks it looks good...) The best, the price is still very cheap, only 20 for a mens haircut. I dont think Im surprised by the appearance at all, I just want a refreshing haircut here. If you want to look better, change another one.
The barber didnt listen to the request. He told me not to thin and kept beating. I turned my face and punched. Girls with short hair are so ugly, they have to pay more than 40 yuan. With this money, I can go to a very good Japanese barber shop.
Very bad hair salon. The so-called master does not cut hair at all. Depending on the direction of the head, you have to use a different method to cut it. Its almost casual to get someone in the street to help guests cut their hair.
The hairdresser is very patient, the technique is good, and the care is very careful.
Good service and quick (but need wait for long time in weekend). It takes 1 hour to wait for 15 minutes.
Can try

2022-04-24I went because I was excited for a head massage with the hair cut (something which is customary back home but I’ve not been able to find since moving here).The massage was fantastic.The cut was atrocious. The hairstylist (a young man with long hair in a pony) seemed confident in doing the mid length layered bob I described, I went in with a specific picture of the cut on someone with similar hair to mine. It is the same picture I’ve used the last three times I’ve had this cut elsewhere and have never had a problem. Today was just a trim of about 1/2 - 1”.He went at my hair like a demonic Edward scissor hands, taking several inches off leaving me with length to the bottom of my ears. Then he grabbed random chunks of hair and started haphazardly cutting. I’ve been left with a choppy extremely short bob and to top it off he missed 3-4 chunks of hair that were almost half an inches longer and hung down. I walked around the city like this! How embarrassing!I will NEVER go back. I’d rather pay 3x the $35 price and leave the salon with the cut I asked for and not have to go home and trim missed pieces myself…This guy went at my hai

2022-08-05I loved this place so much! I was visiting from TX and made sure to stop by! The staff was so lovely. I walked in on a Wednesday afternoon and got a wash and blow out with curls for $30 (before tip) and it was perfect! 10/10 would recommend getting a wash & blowout here!

2022-03-24I’ve gotten a haircut here a few times and sometimes it’s good but mostly it’s not. They tend to cut the hair very short without paying attention to how it’ll actually look once finished. It’s uneven and way too short. I know the haircut is very affordable but I could’ve done a better job myself if I had bought hair clippers. They didn’t even show me the end result. I said I wanted the top left long and he cut it all off. If I go back I’m just going to ask for the sides done and do the top myself

2022-05-30I’ve been going to Mian Tian Sing for my haircut since 2018 coming all the way from NJ.Never been disappointed!The icing on the cake is the free massage for about 5 minutes if you decide to get a shampoo along with your haircut. (There are options to extend the massage times for a nominal price.)All for $20.00, an unbeatable price for any place, especially in NYC of all places, but this place too has become a victim of the current high inflation ravaging the globe. So now, it’s gone up to $25.00 but still a real bargain. Highly recommended.

2021-07-03I had an absolutely lovely time today!! I waited for a bit, but it was a busy Friday evening so that was to be expected. Super happy with my haircut from Sam, chair No.9, I think I look super cute. It turned out exactly as I requested, and he was really careful cutting around the back of my head to make sure it looked even. The neck/head massage during the hair wash felt really wonderful as well, I appreciated it so much!! Will definitely be coming back~

2022-05-01Horrible. Second time having manicure at this salon and the colors that they use are old and never dry, there are a different location where you paid less and they have a lot of choices of color of good quality. Manager please invest some money on new nail polish

2020-11-17I came here to do my keratin treatment and they offered me to do the nails. This is Gel so Ill have these nails at least 3 weeks and as you can see they dont look good and are stained. I think the product was expired.

2022-08-06Hairdresser spent only ten minutes cutting my hair and did a terrible job, had to go home and cut the parts he missed myself. Won’t be going back. The price has increased but it’s getting worse.

2022-02-02My husband and I always visit when its time for his haircut. The quality and price cant be beat! Mens haircut is $20. The manager is really efficient so were usually in and out. My only suggestion is that they play something other than the cctv surveillance of the stylists in the waiting area.

2021-11-14I love this salon! I just went for the first time. I got a massage, hair cut, shampoo, and style. The massage by Amy was very relaxing and Leo did a great job with my haircut. It came out exactly as I requested! Great value as well. Ill definitely be coming back.
