I’ve seen reviews for this salon multiple times and finally was able to book an appointment. My hair is already semi dyed but my roots were coming in so I was hoping to get it dyed similar to the color I started with or similar to how it looked when I walked in for the appointment. My stylist Shalayna was extremely nice! Very helpful, professional and just really knowledgeable she informed me about my hair & what she recommended we do for my hair type and the tips I could use to maintain my hair as well as scheduling an appointment in the next two months so we could grow my hair to the desired length/healthiness it deserves! She is really knowledgeable and cares about her clients & helping them grow their hair/get it back on track. I would definitely recommend her/the salon in general. It was very clean & the music was great.
*The video is how my hair looked in February & the picture is how it looked after I finished my appointment today. I definitely recommend Shalayna! My hair was very damaged and short/long in different areas of my hair. Also different colors as well so now that its a single color it definitely looks and feels healthier/prettier!

Yup, this place is the real deal! Dailey knows her stuff. She had to chop off around 3" of my natural, shoulder length hair because it was damaged. My ends feel lovely and smooth now (plus I had a silk press). I was reluctant, but she explained it was necessary if I wanted healthy hair. My ends were damaged, dry, shedding a great deal, and I had not had a professional cut since around 2019 (too many bad experiences at salons). I was just trimming off around 1/2" every few months myself :o So, I'll be back in a few months for another trim. I tried several salons in Harlem prior to this and traveled 1 hour to get to H2 in BK. It was worth the trip!

I messaged friends and family about this place only to find out that they have been here already. I did not what to expect but I received five-star service, reassurance in the way I would look from a beautiful staff member and I got my confidence back. Ronald is an amazing barber with a great energy. I feel like myself again. Thank you Ron and H2 staff!

I had great experiences with my stylist. My issue is the young lady working the front desk. She rebooked me for wrong service and insisted it was an error on my end when I arrived. Because the service was not booked correctly I walked with the incorrect amount of cash and was told I a card couldn’t be used to pay the remaining balance. We had discussed since the ATM was out, that I would go up to the bodega to get the remaining balance. When I returned with the cash, the card I had on file to pay the deposit was used to resolve the balance. She claimed she “accidentally” charge my account with my card on file. I am willing to pay higher price for a professional experience. I will not return, due to a lack of integrity on this particular staff member.

I love my stylist Liyah. She saved me after I got scissor happy at home. I am giving four stars because the lady at the front desk doesn't have a great attitude.

I was hesitant about having another person do my hair after going to Dominican stylists the majority of my life, but I took the leap! I made my appointment at H2 salon and Melissa relaxed my hair with such professionalism and care. I can’t wait to go back in two weeks for my wash.

I’m long overdue in writing this review, but I feel it’s necessary given that it has been nearly a year, and my issue remains unresolved. On November 9, 2023, I visited H2 Salon, serviced by a stylist named Lauren. I was drawn to the salon because it is a Black woman-owned business that claimed to specialize in natural hair.
However, from the moment I arrived, it didn’t feel welcoming. The receptionist didn’t greet me, and while my stylist was pleasant, I can only describe the overall experience as average. Less than 24 hours after getting a bob cut and silk press, my hair completely reverted, leaving me looking unkempt.
After leaving a review on Fresha (the salon’s booking platform), Lauren reached out to apologize and offered a complimentary press and restyle. Despite her offer, she never followed up to schedule the service. I had paid for a style that I expected to last at least two weeks, and it didn’t even last a day.
On November 25, I reached out to the salon manager, Dailey Greene, hoping to resolve the issue (screenshot attached). While Dailey initially seemed eager to help, explaining that the holiday season made scheduling difficult, she promised to personally take care of the situation as I was hesitant to return to Lauren. She suggested I come back in January, which I agreed to.
When January arrived, no one contacted me. I followed up with Dailey on January 29, and after a brief exchange, she once again stopped responding. On February 24, I reached out again to request a partial refund, and my message went unread.
I really tried to give the salon a fair chance to make things right before leaving this review, but nearly a year later, I’ve received no resolution, no refund, no follow-up—nothing. This is simply unacceptable.
As a Black woman who has embraced her natural hair for her entire life, I was excited to support a Black-owned salon that I thought would understand my hair needs. Unfortunately, that’s not the experience I received. It’s incredibly frustrating, especially since I make an effort to support Black women-owned businesses. Seeing so many other Black women share similar negative experiences is disheartening.
We, as a community, need to do better. A business being Black-owned does not automatically make it Black-friendly.

My experience with Liyah was just what I needed! From the consultation portion to the end result. I was talked off a much needed ledge because I thought I needed to chop all my hair off. I especially appreciated the one on one experience, which got me in and out in about 2 hours, but it didn’t feel rushed. I have work to do to get my hair to where I really want it to be but with the best cut I’ve ever had, to the homework Liyah gave me with consistent trims/maintenance…I’ll get there. See you in December!
Attached is a quick video I made of my hair on day 2 and after going out the night before. I wrapped it overnight.

I received a silk press and haircut (trim) by Dailey on two occasions at H2. I am particular about my hair and chose Dailey as the owner and senior stylist to ensure I received the best service, though her pricing is higher. The first time went ok as far as the press and trim but I was left with dandruff afterwards, probably because the assistant only shampooed twice.
I returned again 3 months later but pre washed my own hair before going. The second time was a disaster. Dailey was very rough combing through my hair during the wash and conditioning. She attempted to comb through my thick kinky hair in four sections, which of course was not going to work.
After that, Dailey blow dryed, flat ironed/curled my hair. She likely forgot about the trim (although there is no option to book her for just a silk press without a haircut on the booking site) so I reminded her I wanted a trim as well. She explained that she curled my hair because she didn’t want it to be flat when she cut it. I’ve never heard of that before, but she’s a senior stylist so I went along with it.
When I arrived home and combed my hair it looked as though my hair was cut into layers. I don’t know what possessed Dailey to cut my normally blunt cut hair into layers without asking me, but she did it.
I didn’t realize how drastic the cut was until I asked my cousin, a stylist as well, who was visiting from out of town the next day to examine my hair. She confirmed my hair had been cut into layers and a section towards the back was cut very short for some reason, about 3 inches shorter than the rest. My cousin also explained that my hair should not have been cut after it was curled and that is likely why the cut was layered.
Overall, I’m completely turned off by the service I received at H2 salon and I will not be returning. I did not expect for my hair to be “trimmed” into a cut I did not ask for.
I have included photos of the “trim” I received from Dailey.
Edited in response to owner:
I was not able to leave a review on the Fresha booking site which would have included my full name. My google account is under my middle name. I was at to your salon in March.

Patrice gave me a silk press + haircut today, and it was an absolute pleasure. From washing to getting a haircut! Before cutting, she checked to make sure I was comfortable with the length she intended to cut. All in all, 10 out of 10. I made an appointment for my next visit before leaving!
