Musa Salon LLC

"This is my second time with Rebecca. Had gotten so many compliments on my cut the first time that I decided to come back. Asked for bangs, which she agreed would look good for my face shape. She simply flipped some strands over my face and cut in a line over my eyes. The result is very short, uneven, choppy, and blunt bangs. The bangs don't even cover my entire forehead. I paid $93 (including tip). Rebecca does an amazing job with layers and simple trims, but I think $90 is very overpriced for those services."

"Great hair salon and very affordable. Both Bushi and Rebecca are very skilled. I have not tried the hair coloring but it's pretty well known their hair colorists are legit. Went and again , they do such a good job giving you the cut you want. Highly recommend."

"Can't recommend Bushi enough. He is the owner of Salon Musa and since finding it a few years go, I will only go to him now. He just understands; he and I seem to be on the same wavelength when it comes to what's right for me. That is very hard to find in a stylist! On top of that, the vibe of his salon is quite unique. It reflects Bushi's vintage-y style and it's a small but comfortable space. Bushi himself is laid back and friendly. Bushi's haircuts are also very long lasting in my opinion. They are so good that mine lasts for months and it grows out very nicely. A great value for a Soho salon!"

"I dyed my hair with Rebecca, who is rather lovely, and was pleased with the outcome. That said, I had to insist that the first attempt at pigmentation was too strong (it was a colour I had expressly said I did not want), and the assurance that it would “fade off in a month” was not good enough. (Why would one style their hair for a look that will only mature in a month?) Thankfully she quickly moved to correct it and used a special substance to wash some of it off. Bushi, the owner, holds the fort down with his charm and honesty. He said he gave me a discount for being a student, which I appreciated. The only not-so-great comment was that I was a bit put off by the energy Kyle, a fellow styler, was giving me. I hope I am misunderstanding but he seemed to be really condescending to anything I had to say or ask about the styling process of *my* hair. When I showed a picture of what I did not want to Rebecca, he turned around into a conversation he was not a part of to say “is there anything that you DO want?” If I were allow that, then I proceeded to share that the reference that I was looking at (for what I DID want) was not a semi-permanent dye, but toner mixed with bleach. Here he felt the need to say, once again in a conversation he was not a part of, “Don’t tell me what their hair stylers did, that’s up to us.” The tone and context was off; I clearly trusted Rebecca, else why would I come here after the consultation when I had other options available? Finally, when I asked Rebecca about when my hair would come down/be less stiff, of which I learned it would be different tomorrow, I could see Kyle roll his eyes. This was when I felt the need to say, “do I not have a right to be curious about the characteristics of and how to treat my hair?” I am sure he is a perfectly kind person from his interactions with his loyal customers, and I hope I am misunderstanding here, but I thought that energy was completely unnecessary for an afternoon I would otherwise spend time and hundreds of dollars to try to enjoy."
