Fringe was one of the first salons to open on the Lower East Side 15 years ago, and it has remained for a reason. Amy Schiappa, the salon's founder, set out to establish an inspiring and welcoming environment, which she has accomplished with the salon's cute vintage barbershop-esque aesthetic and her crew of creative and attentive stylists.

The Fringe Salon had a casual, personal feel to it, and everyone from the receptionist to Amy herself was friendly—quite the contrary of the intimidating attitude that several NYC salons are known for. Amy's unique expertise, in addition to her laid-back demeanor, was the most beautiful, beachy waves.

Fringe Salon offers services:

• Cut
• Styling

Spoke and Weal is a full-service hair salon known for dry cutting and custom dimensional hair color. It also offers cut, color, keratin, extension, and styling services.

You don't tell Master Stylist Kelsy Osterman the exact length you want at Spoke and Weal Soho; instead, she lets your hair's natural texture define that for you. She snips to perfection after listening to your locks (by seeing where your curls and waves begin and end), delivering current cuts with body and volume. Meanwhile, on the basement level of the two-story salon, Master Colorist Madison Rae Garrett specializes in bright hues and beachy balayage, creating lovely tints every time.

One visit to their rainbow-colored website is enough to convince you that Fox & Jane's five Manhattan salons are unlike any other in the city. F&J, founded by hairstylist Lorean Cairns and entrepreneur Billy Canu, values fun and community while emphasizing salon culture to the point where Cairns published a book about it (in addition to hosting stylist education classes and events).

Customers like how their pricing is based on hair length and service difficulty (rather than gender), and that all of the products they use are cruelty-free and reasonably priced. Unsure whether you should schedule an appointment in the Bowery, East Village, Lower East Side, Upper West Side, or Brooklyn? We recommend looking through their inspo-heavy Instagram to locate the appropriate stylist for you.

Owner Kattia Solano describes her 4,000 square-foot second-floor salon as a "haven of beauty and artistry," and we agree. Her primp haven is the ideal spot to find peace with your mane. Translation? You can rest assured that your hair demands and wishes will be addressed.

Solano and her all-star team of stylists create perfectly-layered, easy-to-wear haircuts as well as cosmetics treatments. Given the vastness of the space, there is plenty of potential for a socially distant cut. The price of Butterfly Studio for a haircut starts at $115. Of course, there's always Kattia's Corner—the founder's step-by-step tutorials, which are available online for anybody to follow.

The East Village's White Rose Collective fosters individuality and creativity—the crew even creates mood boards together to keep the ideas flowing. In addition to creator Teddi Cranford's celebrity hairstyles (think Behati Prinsloo, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, and others), the salon is known for its wavy dry cuts and beachy blonde colorings, as well as stylish modern bridal designs.

One of White Rose Collective’s reviews said: “I had Diana do my hair for my wedding and I have never felt more beautiful or received more compliments on my hair! To be honest, I stretched my budget a bit with hair just to be able to have Diana (who is a genius) do my hair for my wedding. And it was worth it! She worked magic and my hair looked beautiful in a soft, textured up-do that *stayed all night*. I can't truly explain how much I loved my hair; Diana takes hair to another level that is truly an art. They only allow 5 stars for this review but I would give her 10+. In addition to being a master at her craft, she is a super sweet, calm person who I enjoyed just being around on the morning of my wedding. I'm serious, 10+ stars for Diana. If you can afford her, you have to do it. Tracy Mathew is the coordinator for White Rose and who you work with to book services. She is extremely professional, responsive, and a pleasure to work with.”
