This review is for Danny M.
Just wanted to highlight your
skills/craftsmanship along with your professionalism. I'm a client that loves her
long hair I've had my fair share of challenges in the past with hairdressers that unfortunately chop off too much of my hair.
I do a great job of maintaining
my hair healthy and long .
When I come in to the salon I typically come in for layering or bang trimming . I appreciate Danny's ability to anticipate my needs he's a great listener and pays attention to details. If you look at the photos he delivered on layering my hair while keeping the length & fullness.
I leave his chair happy every time.
Thank you Danny

Anita is the best! I have been coming to this location for many years (through a few ownership and name changes) sometimes for color, sometimes for cut, but the staff is always stellar. One thing that never changes, is how friendly AND truly professional everyone is. Always down-to-earth people, in a comfortable, low-key setting of talented folks who take pride in the quality of their craft, as well as always making you feel welcome and special. Anita is especially talented at color, listening to my ideas, and bringing her years of knowledge to an outcome that is exactly what I communicated. She helped me transition to a version of my grey that is flattering, natural and I get compliments all the time - I always leave feeling relaxed - never rushed - and a more beautiful version of true me.

Tanya did such an amazing job with my color! She really took the time to talk through everything with me and made sure I felt confident in my choice. The result is absolutely perfect—I love it! She was so kind and patient throughout the process. Highly recommend her!

I have been going to Danny Medina for my haircuts and I can confidently say that he provides the best haircut experience you can ever have. Since my first visit, I haven’t gone to anyone else. Danny truly has the best hands when it comes to hair. He always starts by checking in with me to understand the style I’m looking for, ensuring that I get exactly what I want. Not to me mention the hair washing experience is incredibly relaxing and soothing. He has the softest hands, which I really appreciate because I have frizzy hair. After each visit , I receive so many head turns, making me feel like a whole new person.
Now that he’s at Blake Charles Salon it makes for the ultimate experience. Blake Charles has a self check-in which I think provides a seamless experience especially if the front desk team is busy . Their cheerful and friendly attitude makes it such a new breath of fresh air environment, I love it! The waiting area is comfortable, with nice refreshments available while you wait. I love that we can hang our coats and change into a comfortable robe. Best changing area with big full body mirrors with lots of bright lights for selfies. Let me not forget , how the natural lighting in the salon just makes it so much more inviting and bright just like the energy there .
Overall, Danny Medina and Blake Charles Salon provide an exceptional experience that I highly recommend to anyone looking for a top-notch haircut and salon experience.

Anita is amazing. She is so talented and has done such a wonderful job with my hair color. I’ve been going to her for a couple of years now and I absolutely love my hair color. She has taken care of my hair health while also creating the exact color I wanted. My hair is dark brown and with highlights she has created a beautiful caramel color. Thank you so much Anita.

I can’t say enough amazing things about Angela and Blake Charles Salon ! I’ve been coming to her for my hair color and trims for many years, and every single visit is a wonderful experience. Her attention to detail is unmatched—she truly listens to what I want and ensures every strand is perfect. Whether it’s achieving the perfect shade, blending tones seamlessly, or giving my hair the fresh, healthy trim it needs, she always goes above and beyond.
Beyond her incredible talent, she creates such a warm and welcoming atmosphere. I always leave feeling more confident and refreshed. If you’re looking for a hairstylist who genuinely cares about her clients and takes pride in her work, look no further than Angela at Blake Charles. Highly recommend!

OMG ! The worst experience I Ve ever had with ANGELA
I went there confident that I ll be professionally treated and served especially my hair ll look amazing after the highlights.
I went with a beautiful and healthy hair I did not colored them for two years. So I was so excited about having a nice work done on my hair.
Anyways, I walked out desperately offended. Sad, and mad about the result. I could notice right the way that the color was not what I wanted, she did touch up two times but nothing nice was coming out. Once I saw my hair in a natural light it was a complete disaster three colors was there ( some pink some white ( grey ) some orange kinda red ) and in a top of this it was burned you can see cuts right after the root ( my hair are very long so it looks very bad now with all the damage cuts )
When I reached out to the person who did my hair and told her about my feeling the only thing she said was that she ll process a full refund and she can’t do more she is not a good fit for me, wishing me happy holidays.
(Seriously ) I was like WHAT ??
Why you guys did not say that you were not a good fit from the beginning before even starting… when you were saying that my hair looks healthy and strong and it won’t be damaged.
Anyway just to let you know guys I walked there with a nice long and beautiful strong hair and walk out with a burned hair and the color is just awful 😞
I ve done highlights it never ended up looking like this. I can’t even detangle my hair now.
Be careful ! Don’t trust pictures, and talks.
Refund won’t get me back my nice hair. I am desperate now it ll take me 2 more years to recover from this.

I had an amazing experience with Tanya! She did a phenomenal job bleaching my hair - exactly what I was looking for! The process was handled with care and I appreciated her attention to detail and how she took the time to ensure the color was perfect for what I was looking to achieve. Plus, the salon atmosphere was so welcoming and professional. I couldn’t be happier with the results! Highly recommend if you’re looking for a skilled and thoughtful stylist!

I have a new stylist "Daniel". He does it ALL! From coloring, cuts, and styling. I've been coming here thirty years, and let me tell you my hair has NEVER looked better. I absolutely love him. He's the sweetest person on top of being an exceptional beauty professional. He can transform my naturally curly hair to silk my straight, golden highlighted waves, or timeless feathers.

I've always had separate colorists and stylists. I was going to an old friend that has cut my hair forever and ever and I thought always did an amazing job. I also am always open to helping anyone learn in any way, so have been a model for several education days here at the salon. My hair is complicated to say the least.
In my last education day, JAY was the educator and asked if they could cut my hair. I normally don't do the cuts here (since I see my old friend for that). I said yes, and wow! Jay is an expert and told me all about my hair and its tendencies by looking at it wet after color. I was blown away.
With that being an education cut guided by Jay, it was a phenomenal HC.
Naturally the next time I needed a cut, I saw Jay.
Best HC of my life - not kidding.
He took his time feeling and learning my hair before cutting it. He listened to my regular routine (I'm lazy during the work week and just throw it up in a bun or braid) and style on the weekends for date nights. He helped me with the right products for my hair. In the couple of months since, my hair has been more manageable, low maintenance and the best it's looked, maybe ever.
Jay is worth every penny and more!

I booked here when I had a last-minute December party and every stylist I had ever used before was already booked. Their stylist was over half an hour late for his first appointment of the day,, criticized my hair type, and then give me the worst and weirdest updo I've ever gotten in probably 50 professional updos. Everybody in the salon was coming out with Fox newscaster rigid blond hair and honestly, that would've looked better than what I got.
I would've let it go, but they were texting incessantly this week with ads. They do Botox now, apparently? A world of no.

This was my first time at Blake Charles. It's located right across the street from the Ritz-Carton Club in the financial district. I was impressed by the salon. It was welcoming and open. Jay took care of me. He listened to what I wanted and gave his ideas. My hair was down to my waist and I was ready for a change. He ended up giving me chic bob that made me look put together. I was self-conscious about hair loss. The cut, style techniques and products he used helped make my hair look and feel fuller. The scalp massage he gave was 10/10! I'd go back sooner just for a longer scalp massage. You're in good hands with Jay!

Shelby was the best hair colorist I have ever had! Could not recommend more highly. She was very nice and professional. I came in wanting a subtle, dimensional brunette look with a neutral tone on my naturally dark black hair. She did such a fantastic job making the lightening look very natural and dimensional and explained various steps when I asked. I can't stop looking at my hair, and am very happy with the outcome. Shelby is the best!

I needed a shampoo and blow out. I called and the kind man with a nice accent was able to get me an appointment with Connie.
She was very friendly and we got along great. We had great conversations while she didn’t d my shampoo and hair. She did a great job. In fact, it was probably the best hair style I ever had. Even though he doorman told me it looked great.
Kudos to Connie. I will be back!

OMG ! The worst experience I Ve ever had.
I went there confident that I ll be professionally treated and served especially my hair ll look amazing after the highlights.
In my personal opinion they don't have a good knowledge about coloring hair and also blow drying hair.
I went with a beautiful and healthy hair I did not colored them for two years. So I was so excited about having a nice work done on my hair.
Anyways, I walked out desperately offended. Sad, and mad about the result. I could notice right the way that the color was not what I wanted, she did touch up two times but nothing nice was coming out.

I ve done highlights it never ended up looking like this. I can't even detangle my hair now. When I brush my hair I am finding pieces by pieces on the floors all the burned blond hair and a lot of cuts
Be careful ! Don't trust pictures, and talks.
Refund won't get me back my nice hair. I am desperate now. It ll take two more years to recover from this.

Blowouts, cut, & color by Evan (Daniel) are the best anywhere. I'm a curly girl and he has the curly / every person touch. He's also a delight and such a sweetheart!
The salon is so gorgeous and well kept, and service throughout is lovely. They also offer facials, makeup, med services, and more, so it would make for a perfect pampering day.

Out of the 5 hairstylists I’ve been to over the past 8 years, Angela has been the greatest! She knows exactly what my wants and needs are and my hair always comes out perfect! First pic is what I came to her with. 2nd pic is after 1st balayage session. 3rd pic is 2nd balayage because I wanted something more low maintenance but still dimensional🥰

Mod is the best for blonde coloring- hands down. He does outstanding work and exactly what I ask for- sometimes I want a bright, summer blonde. Sometimes a more toned down with root smudging- he does it all.
I only have one photo from when he did a bright summer blonde..
Ladies- go here!
