I'm always up for trying new things, so when a girlfriend (with great hair) recently told me about the wonderfully hidden SoHo salon she frequents, I couldn't resist making an appointment for the very next day.
NY Mag best describes Aurbeautica's beautiful loft-like space, but their talented team of stylists (sans ego or attitude) is what truly distinguishes this salon from the rest. From the moment I arrived, I felt an intoxicating level of tranquility that put me to ease and allowed me to actually enjoy my time at the salon.
As it was only my first visit, I decided to go for a clear glossing treatment (amazing!) and a much-overdue haircut by Aurbeautica owner Jessica Nash, both of which turned out brilliantly. And, as an added bonus, they also use/retail the Davines product collection I was raving about earlier this week. It must be a sign.
Cost: $65 for a glossing treatment (which lasts up to six weeks) and $65- $120 for a cut.

i went to aurbeautica two weeks ago for a hair cut and the results were so good i decided to do my color as well. Both procedures were done by D a great stylist that listens to what you want, takes your hair's color and texture into consideration, does wonders and if that wasn't enough, is the absolutely nicest and kindest guy i've met. I struggled a lot to find a place where to do my hair in NYC and i'm so happy i found D i will not even consider going anywhere else but aurbeautica from now on.
