KIZUNA HAIR New York 160 East 55th Street, Manhattan, New York,

"Went to Kizuna Hair for a wash/cut/blow dry. Price was $95 before tip. I'm very picky about my hair and didn't want it to be too short but wanted to make my hair healthier. Shima listed to what I asked and did not push me out of my comfort zone. Highly recommend coming here! I will be back. The shampoo itself was so relaxing/scalp massage was very thorough. I was pleasantly surprised how quickly my appointment was. Please try them out! I've been to several salons in the area and this one is simple but gets the job done."

"I have followed them from the original location on E. 40th St. well before Covid. And even when I moved to Boston, I would time my cuts and color for visits to NYC. And now that I’ve retired to Florida, I still time my trips get my hair cuts/color by Tenzin. Why? He’s very professional, very good at his work, and a very kind and good human being: I think it’s the Tibetan in him. Tenzin is also very knowledgeable about hair conditions and solutions to problem-hair. In my case, thinning and uneven graying. The new place is immaculate and modern in decor. Would give it 6 stars, if I could!"

"Wow! Kizuna Salon is New York’s BEST Kept Secret!!! I had the absolute pleasure of having my long hair cut there. It turned out beautiful beyond my expectations. Now after 2 weeks later, my hair maintained its bounce and shine… so easy to manage now! I’m really pleased and excited to have found this amazing salon! PERFECT SCORE!!!"

"It’s overall a terrible experience. I wanted to try out this new place because my usual hairdresser is out of town and I live really close by. And the price is 95 for a haircut so I assume with this price point they should know their way. Before this experience, I’ve had my haircut with several different salons in several different cities and I’ve never had a bad experience and this place was so far the most expensive. I asked for long layers which is in the past all I have to say to get a pretty good haircut. But the lady that did my hair did not seem to understand it. She cut my hair shorter (which is what I asked for) but did not section my hair at all when she cut it which was already a little weird. Then she said she’s done. I said I wanted more layers and showed her a picture. She then started to say how I have thin hair in the very back so she can’t do layers but she would try. I have always been told I have thick hair from multiple hairdressers who have done my hair in the past so her reasoning was a little weird. Then she tried to add more layers but did not look like my picture at all. And she also cut my hair kinda aggressively like I can tell she was not happy with my feedback. I pretty much gave up at this point. I told her I felt one side is slightly longer than the other side (at least I want my hair the same length) she then told me that’s because my hair on that side is thicker. I don’t understand how it had to do with length. At this point I just didn’t want her to touch my hair anymore cuz I didn’t want it worse. She also did not do a nice blow out or even tried the slightest to style my hair a little (like other salons would normally do). I still paid full price and tipped her. But I told them I was really unsatisfied with my haircut. They didn’t really apologize or tried to make it a better experience for me. I cried on my way home. If you want a layered haircut I do not recommend this place at all. Now I have to wait for my usual hairdresser to come back before I can fix my hair."

"Tenzin is a great hair stylist. I was first introduced to him by a friend. He has cut my hair from when I had a mane like Jon Snow from Game of Thrones to now when I look like a civilized professional. All along, he has shown great dexterity and care. He’s also easy to talk with and very thoughtful. Not to mention, the hot towel and scalp massage doesn’t hurt! I definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a great hair cut."
