Ainur is incredibly talented and pays amazing attention to detail with every braid she creates. I’ve gone to her multiple times for special events like HYROX competitions and the Pride Parade, where I wanted colorful extensions braided into my natural hair. The braids always look beautiful, are comfortable, and hold up for days—even through intense athletic events. I highly recommend Ainur to anyone looking for high-quality, creative braids that last!

She was great. I will definitely return. My hair was in bad shape after braids and she gave me a nice cut and style that I'm comfortable with. Extremely patient. I didn't really know what I wanted, but she gave me the perfect style that looks good on me.

Raven truly exceeded my expectations with my daughter's Crochet braids! Everywhere we go, she's receiving compliments, which has really elevated her confidence. It's heartwarming to see her so happy. Best believe we will be returning for future styles!

I recently visited Jamal Amal Salon to get my hair braided, and I had such a great experience! The staff was incredibly friendly, helpful and polite, making me feel welcomed from the moment I walked in. They took their time to ensure my hair was styled perfectly, and the attention to detail was amazing.The atmosphere was warm and inviting, which made the entire process so relaxing. I left the salon feeling confident, refreshed, and absolutely loving my braids! It’s always such a joy to find a place where the service is top-notch and the people genuinely care about making you feel your best.

Ainur took SUCH great care of me today! I had never been to this salon, but decided to come since I saw great reviews online. I showed Ainur images of what I wanted (icy blonde underlights and a face framing highlight) and she was so open and happy to help me achieve this look! My natural hair color is about a 1B/2N. I also had box dyed the bottom half of my hair blonde. It was uneven and darker than I wanted. Ainur worked on my hair for 5 hours! Carefully checking the bleach and reapplying as needed. Once finished, both other clients at the salon complimented my hair! I couldn't be happier!

Monique was so sweet! My daughter loved her and found her very welcoming. I would recommend this hair salon to anyone who asked for a good, Black-owned hair salon.

Chona was great! I got a short haircut and she nailed exactly what I wanted, while also giving helpful tips on what would and wouldn't suit me. I'd 100% recommend Chona (especially for short hair!)

Desirèe exceeded all of my expectations today! I am still in awe of how beautiful my hair looks. I am so happy I trusted her with my transformation. From start to finish, Desirèe took her time, listened to my concerns, and was incredibly thoughtful throughout the entire appointment. Her attention to detail and care truly made the experience exceptional. Thank you, Desirèe, for helping me feel so confident and beautiful. I look forward to coming back and seeing you again!

Jamal is professional, warm and truly cares about the health of your hair. Whenever I fly into New York, I ensure to visit his salon and the clean and welcoming environment is the cherry on top.

From Jen Aniston flowy blonde, to Khaleesi Platinum fade, to Extra Fresh Mullet, James Andersen has given me more looks than Madonna. Only one stylist in New York I trust to get me event-ready! Trust!

Jamal, and his assistant Talia, are extremely kind, utterly professional, thorough and an absolute joy with whom to spend the afternoon. Jamal is a wizard with sensitive hair, and fixed my damaged hair so that it looks and feels healthy and amazing!! It was a great blessing to find them; I only wish they were in New Jersey :-) so I shall have to go up to New York many many times in the future!!

I've NEVER written a review in my life. No cap. But Desiree's work at The Way inspired my first. My daughter's hair was always this dry, clumpy mop that took stylists 10+ hours to braid—most visits took two days. Our first visit to The Way? A haircut and 2½ hours later, we finally got to celebrate her natural curly hair. Curls just popping and locking. Beautiful. For parents with mixed kids struggling with their children's hair—this place should be shortlisted. Highly recommended and will definitely return. Thanks, Desiree and The Way!

Ashiya is great! I did a blowout with braids with her twice now and she was so sweet and welcoming, and she was gentle with my hair from the wash and water temp, blow dry, to the braids. My braids looked amazing, and they weren’t too tight so I didn’t have a headache, and they last for days. I got so many compliments. I would highly recommend!

I had my first Russian pedicure and it was absolutely amazing. Every bit of dry skin and all of my calluses were carefully removed, leaving my feet feeling unbelievably smooth and refreshed. The nail work was equally impressive - my nails look perfectly shaped, clean and beautifully finished. The precision and care that went into the treatment really set it apart from a traditional pedicure. Thank you Katja.

Kateryna demonstrated attentiveness and thoughtfulness. She inquired about my nails before commencing her work.

Jun 15, 2026

My experience with Kat is excellent as always. Kat is personable and always professional. She is passionate about what she does and genuinely cares about her clients' needs. This is her vocation. I live in the Bronx and travel to Brooklyn just for Kat to take care of my tresses. Enough said!
