Went to Pilo Arts Hair and Skin Salon for the first time. I have lived in Brooklyn my whole life and was very loyal to a salon I have been going to for 15 years. Was not as happy with my cuts and service as I was in the past. Someone recommended I try Sia for a new look. She was great, listened to me and was very generous with her time and suggestions.
I now am loyal to Sia and Pilo Arts and found a new hair and skin salon.

I went to Pilo Arts for the first time and had my hair done by Carla, who was recommended to me. Very happy with her work, gave me exactly what I wanted.

Beautiful salon! Carla did my hair and it turned out stunning! I did balayage and a blowout. Everything was fast, clean, and I love my results

I had a wonderful experience at Pilo Arts, I had Sia as my hair dresser, she was very professional and very friendly. We laughed so much and I came out feeling great, I will definitely be back!
10/24/17 GROUPON 6 OF 6 STARS Carol R.
I was extremely pleased with my highlights, cut and blowout. Hermina did an excellent job. She was very attentive to how I wanted my color and cut. My hair looked amazing when she finished. The staff at Pilo are very welcoming. I would highly recommended Pilo, especially Hermena, to everyone.

10/24/17 GROUPON 6 OF 6 STARS  Yanira Q.
Sia was absolutely amazing! She's very down to earth and made sure i was comfortable. She was very detailed on what had to be done to my hair. I will definitely be going back to her to get the blonde I desire.

10/20/17 GROUPON 6 OF 6 STARS Roberta S.
Very good cut with Sia. Excellent service overall

10/12/17 GROUPON 5 OF 6 STARS  Ann M.
Had a great experience, sis koutsopetras did perfect highlights and gave me a cute cut:)
10/14/17 YELP 5 OF 5 STARS - Danielle G.
Jessica is my stylist and she's awesome at highlights, cuts and blow outs. Some stylists are only good at one of the three but she's extremely good. She's very sweet and always does a great job!!! Make an appointment and be sure to give yourself plenty of time to get here cause parking is a bit of a pain. They serve cappuccino, tea and wine complimentary too.

I have been to pilo arts in January for a haircut conditioning treatment and blowout. This is a deal I purchased on Groupon. My stylist was Jessica and let me tell you she is a pro. I loved the way my haircut came out. So needless to say I recommended it my friends and 3 of them went to see her as well and all 3 girls loved it and are now permanent costumers!! Also its a very beautiful salon with excellent customer service. The front desk is handled by Blake who knows how to deal with a large volume of calls and clients and maintains a great friendly and very accommodating attitude. I am going back to Jessica next month to get highlights!!
10/12/17 GROUPON 6 OF 6 STARS Ammara S.
I came in through a Groupon and Hermina was my hair stylist. I had a Groupon for full highlights, a hair cut and condition. She did an EXCELLENT Job and I walked out satisfied!

10/10/17 GROUPON 6 OF 6 STARS Nadia C.
Sia did an amazing job with the highlights and haircut. She took time to listen to what I wanted and look at pictures. She did not rush me out of her chair until she knew I was completely satisfied with the highlights and haircut.

10/7/17 GROUPON 6 OF 6 STARS Janisel K.
Made an appointment with Anna for both my mom and myself and we were very content with the friendly environment, hospitality and haircuts. No complaints here.
10/3/17 GROUPON 6 OF 6 STARS - Alina Y.
Awesome experience & the salon is gorgeous. Dont think just go!

10/1/17 YELP 5 OF 5 STARS - Janine C.
I can't say enough good things about Jessica. I had started to go to another highly reviewed salon on 5th Avenue where they completely wrecked my hair with bad highlights. I decided to go back to Pilo after seeing a groupon for a highlight and cut. I first saw Jessica with a Groupon and she was phenomenal. She fixed my bad highlight job and gave me a great cut. I knew immediately I would be back and on my way out someone at the front desk offered me 50% off of my next visit with Jessica - I was already sold so an extra discount was icing on the cake. I've since been back to see Jessica 4 times, most recently to get a Brazilian Blowout which was completely worth every penny. If you're looking for an amazing stylist that will listen to exactly what you want make an appointment with Jessica ASAP!

I bought a groupon for pilo arts for a haircut, condition, and a single process.
I made an appointment and came in last Friday at 9:30am, the salon was almost empty, which perfect because it was very calm.
I was immediately greeted by my stylist, Anna. She's beautiful herself so I felt safe in her hands. She was warm and listed to what I wanted to do, and told me her concerns with my hair; that it's very damaged and I need to stop dying it and let it rest for a while, hitting the nail on the head. I came in to get an all over color closest to my natural hair color so that I don't touch it again. She worked quickly and talked with me almost the whole time so the process seemed much quicker. She shampooed and conditioned and then applied gloss to my hair which made it so shiny and feel so healthy!
She then proceeded to cut my hair (which she cut a little too much of) but maybe it's because I went from a v shape cut to a straight across. I'm still upset about that, but when I looked in the mirror once she finished blow drying my hair I was blown away. my hair couldn't have looked more fabulous, I didn't even recognize it! I wish we took a video of the way she tossed my hair. Absolutely gorgeous job, although shorter than I wanted, my hair feels healthier and I'm really happy with my visit.
I left the salon at 11:45am and got so many compliments and looks that day. Thank you, Anna!
9/10/17 YELP 4 OF 5 STARS - Misha K.
I just got my highlights by Sia, I am in love with my hair again. The color is beautiful and the style suits my face. I will highly recommend Sia to anyone who asks me. My two sisters are already booking appointments with her

9/10/17 GROUPON 6 OF 6 STARS - Leeza L.
Gotta say Carla did a fantastic job with my hair, I wanted to cut my hair short and it is a cute Bob. The service was great too. Thank you to the woman who washed my hair n Carla for such a beautiful cut n style.

9/7/17 YELP 5 OF 5 STARS - Maggie M.
Jessica is the best. I used a Groupon for my appointment with her and was kind of expecting subpar service, but Jessica and the rest of the staff delivered nothing short of professionalism. I am loving my highlights and haircut and will definitely return.
9/8/17 YELP 5 OF 5 STARS  Annamaria C.
I recently had my hair done by Sia at Pilo Arts and was extremely happy how she took her time and focused her attention on making the cut work for me since I was going from long to shoulder-length hair. Sia was very personable while working on my hair and that made me comfortable and know that she enjoys what she does. I am planning to return soon as I need to revitalize my color and have her do it and can't wait!
Give Sia a try and rest assured you will be pleased as well.

8/20/17 GROUPON 6 OF 6 STARS - Amy Y.
I loved it! Pilo is so amazing. I had Hermena as my stylist and she is so nice and professional. I loved what she had done with my highlights. This deal was a steal! I would definitely come back recommend this place to someone. The place is nice and the service is excellent!
9/6/17 YELP 5 OF 5 STARS - Maria C.
I made an appointment with Hermina for a haircut a couple of weeks ago and had an overall great experience! The salon is spacious and inviting, and the staff is super friendly. I was offered a drink as soon as I sat down in the waiting area (and accepted a nice Lavazza espresso) and was taken to my appointment on time.
Hermina is a great stylist; she listened to what I was looking for and regularly checked in with me throughout the cut to make sure I was happy. She was also very pleasant and we had great conversation. I'll be going back to her and Pilo again for sure!

8/26/17 GROUPON 6 OF 6 STARS Samantha S.
Carla was amazing, she listened to what I had to say and what I wanted and she was on point. My first every experience at Pilo but not the first time I have heard that they are great. Def found my new place. Don't doubt this decision, service was great didn't have to wait long and didnt have to spend five hours at the salon. I am sold!
8/24/17 GROUPON 6 OF 6 STARS Chelsea B.
Pilo was a pleasure the moment I stepped in. I made an appointment with Jessica, but all of the stylists have been there for two or more years and from what I saw do equally as wonderful work. I highly recommend going for the Groupon. They welcome you with wine and coffee and that to me was going the extra mile. Very

8/21/17 YELP 5 OF 5 STARS - Tanisha H.
I just used a groupon for $50 worth of services for $25 and all I can say is wow. My stylist was Sia and she was amazing. I had a cut, conditioning treatment and blow out. She really took the time to get to know my hair. She advised me on products that I can use to keep it looking healthy. The product recommendations were not only affordable but can be purchased at a local pharmacy. I'm so happy with my new style, my hair feels full and healthy. I can't wait for her to do my color in a few months. She shared her work with me (instagram) and she is truly skilled at what she does. No regrets.
8/25/17 GROUPON 5 OF 6 STARS Jasmine F.
Sia was the absolute best. I let her do as she pleased with my hair and I loved it, definitely going back :)

8/15/17 YELP 5 OF 5 STARS  Stephanie H.
The service here was superb! After reading reviews I made the choice of reserving a spot with Jessica early Saturday morning. Not only was I greeted and taken right away but I was surprised of how detailed they were explaining every step of my amazing make over. Jessica was super sweet and listened to all my concerns and questions regarding my balayage. She explained to me each step by step and even answered all my after care and up keep questions. I did not feel like I received a different t treatment for using Groupon and that was refreshing! I finally found a honest and professional salon in bay ridge. As a personal note, I think if you are using a Groupon and the hair stylist did a great job, the tip should be as if it was full price. In love with my hair
8/8/17 YELP 5 OF 5 STARS  Anna K.
Wow, what an amazing experience! I bought a Groupon to try out Pilo Arts and hopefully find a great hair salon in the neighborhood and I was completely blown away by the experience. Sia was my stylist and she was so knowledgable and thorough. She did an incredible job with my highlights. I loved how my hair came out and I will definitely be back. She also have me a card for 50% off on my next service as an additional promo to Groupon. It doesn't get better than this. Love this place!!! Oh, and the cappuccino was delish!!!

8/7/17 GROUPON 6 OF 6 STARS  Mindy L.
Easy to book appointment. Excellent service. Beautiful salon. Professional and beautiful haircut

7/30/17 YELP 5 OF 5 STARS Sheila Q.
I've been going to Pilo Arts for years. I'm usually not picky with stylists because I've been pretty happy with anyone I get but my last visit I had Sia. She was the best so far. Very honest and knowledgeable. I will be going to her again and trust that she will have my best interest in mind.
7/29/17 GROUPON 6 OF 6 STARS Samantha V.
This was the first time I had my hair done at this salon. My hair dresser was Jessica she was amazing. Very nice, excellent job. I will definitely be coming back.

7/29/17 GROUPON 6 OF 6 STARS Adrienne M.
Hermina was excellent, she listened to what I wanted and was so sweet! I'm loving my haircut and I'm very particular! Great customer service experience all around at this salon. I will be seeing Hermina again in the near future!

7/23/17 GROUPON 6 OF 6 STARS Anisha K.
The staff is amazing! My stylist was Hermina and she did a fab job. I recommended Pilo Arts to my friends and they had the same experience. Thank you!!
7/22/17 GROUPON 6 OF 6 STARS - Abby L.
Such a wonderful experience! The staff was incredibly warm and welcoming and the place has a very comfortable and homey feel. Sia made my hair look and feel amazing and we had a great time chatting as well. I'll definitely be back!

7/20/17 YELP 4 OF 5 STARS - Donna M.
Went there with a Groupon. My hair was a mess from other salon, I wasn't thrilled to pay another 200$ to fix my hair so i got the Groupon. I was afraid that they might make it worse but the girl in Pilo Arts, i believe her name was Hermina, did an amazing job! She even used two different colors to fix my hair and I really like what she did. The reason for 4stars and not 5 is only the way they treat Groupon customers. I believe the reason for offering Groupon deals is attracting customers, but the way they communicate with them is not really appealing.
7/16/17 YELP 5 OF 5 STARS - Donna J.
I had my hair colored today... Sia did it..I must tell you she did such an amazing job...She is so sweet that she made you feel so special..My highlights changed my whole face...The color she used was beautiful..I traveled all the way in from Jersey and I will tell you it was well worth... I intend to make this a return to have it done again again and again... The finished product was astounding she blew it out great...Thank you so much Sia

7/12/17 GROUPON 6 OF 6 STARS - Melody L.
Carla cut and styled my hair. She was very professional and did exactly what I asked her to do.
7/5/17 YELP - 5 OF 5 STARS - D.C.
I went here with a Groupon I had been here years ago and was always happy with the results so I tried it again. Hermina cut my hair she was amazing sweet and very professional I'm definitely coming back to her I'm so happy with my hair thank you!!!!!

7/8/17 YELP 5 OF 5 STARS - Ashley M.
When you go into a salon for the first time after having had the same hair cut, style, and color for years the amount of confusion and anxiety is unimaginable. Do I want bangs? Should I try a short cut for the first time in almost 10 years ? What happens if it's not what I imagined? All this raced through my mind in the days leading up to my appointment, and even through the first 10 minutes. Then I met Sia. I told her my ideas and what treatments, and products I use and she got to work. While she was styling my hair she told me I had supersaturated colors of red and showed me what I had been doing to my hair all these years. Now I'm leaving the coloring to her completely and I'm so excited to go back and get started on my new look! I originally went in for a cut and style through a Groupon gift, and I couldn't be happier that I got that appointment with Sia. I'll definitely be recommending her as my go stylist, and can't wait to see her work her magic on my colorful disaster!
7/1/17 GROUPON 6 OF 6 STARS - Morgan M
I had Hermina who was so wonderful and nice. I love talking to her while I was in the chair. My hair came out wonderful and I get so many compliments on my hair style. I'm definitely coming back. <3

Pilo arts has only one word to describe it......Amazing. Sia was my hair dresser and she did a beautiful job! I highly recommend her and will be back again to see her :) congrats Sia you da best!
6/28/17 YELP 5 OF 5 STARS - Dee G.
Sia is amazing! Totally transformed me from blah to goddess! Front desk assigned me to her and I couldn't be more thrilled! She used cutting edge products that left me with silky white blonde hair. She is young, fresh and educated about the latest and best products. She listened to what I wanted and knew what products would work best with my hair to achieve the best results. I recommend Sia to anyone needing color, cut, refreshing or a drastic change.

6/25/17 GROUPON 6 OF 6 STARS - Dawn
Sia was amazing! Totally transformed my hair using amazing cutting edge products. She is a up to the minute stylist with knowledge of the new products that can make all the difference especially to a blonde....

6/12/17 GROUPON 6 OF 6 STARS - Olivia G.
I received great service from Maria. She listened to exactly what I wanted and offered several options. My cut and color came out perfect. The staff was friendly and welcoming. I would definetely go again.
6/8/17 YELP 5 OF 5 STARS - Juliana T.
The staff at Pilo is so professional and so, so good at what they do. The salon is clean, spacious, and stocked with rainbow bagels and a fancy coffee machine for their clients. Fancy pantsy!
I had an up-do done by Alessandra, and believe me when I tell you she is a hair wizard!!! I showed her a picture of what I wanted done, and she made magic happen. My hair didn't look exactly like what I had showed her, but it was no less beautiful. Most importantly, every strand of hair stayed in place from the time I left the salon until 2AM that evening when I undid my hair, after hours of being outdoors and dancing at a wedding.
My up-do cost just over $100 with tax; a great deal, considering how beautifully my hair turned out!!

I went yesterday June 2nd had my hair highlights, cut and blown out by Sia. From start to finish it was as though she was in my mind and she knew exactly what I not only wanted but needed, it feels like my confidence is renewed. I didn't bring any pictures to show her, all I said was that my hair lacked dimension and she worked

Elena, one of the owners of Pilo Arts Salon in Bay Ridge sets an example for all business owners. She runs the business in a community-minded fashion, giving of herself, her time, and training her staff to really care for the women who walk through the door. Pilo Arts is a business that stands out amongst many others.

I FOUND A NEW HOME WITH JESSICA AKA JENNIFER...Yes they are one in the same. There are some that call her Jennifer, and I don't understand the stupidity.
I used a Groupon. I was greeted by the shampoo lady and offered wine. I was greeted with a smile by Jessica. She took the time to listen to my wants and looked at a picture of how I wanted my hair to result in. She was attentive, friendly, beautiful, patient, talented and aimed to please.
Jessica gave me great advise on caring for my color and finally gave me a very stylish cut. She blew my hair out first (after the highlights and shampoo) and focused on how the cut would around my face when it was actually dry. The cut was on point....The highlights were on point...The service was on point. Jessica spent a good 4 hours on me. Due to using the Groupon i was given 50% off my 2nd visit, which i will use.
If you need advise on who to get a cut or highlights, just ask for JESSICA. And make sure to take care of her (tip$$) when you are finished, because she will make sure to take care of you. Did I mention she is very educated. She has a degree is Psychology. She's very smart and we talked a lot.
3/13/17 GROUPON 6 OF 6 STARS - Hayet C.

Jessica was super friendly, welcoming, and professional. She listened to the type of cut and highlights I wanted, and did a SUPERB job.

I got the haircut condition and highlights. I was afraid to get highlights because the last time I did my hair was very light and I just wanted a subtle change. My hairdresser Carla did a great job with my cut and color. The staff at the salon treat me very nicely. the salon is also giving me a discount the next time I come in. I will

★★★★★ I won a gift certificate for a haircut about 2 yrs ago and the woman who did my hair was very nice but I was not happy with how she cut my hair. She got too scissor happy. HOWEVER, I gave it another try and this time I asked for someone who they thought was great doing highlights. I got this lady Jessica and I have seen her 3 times already. I love how she does the highlights and hair cut. She is the nicest person you will ever meet.

It was a 10, some places when you have a Groupon treat you like a 2nd class citizen. This place was a 10. Have been back 3 times since I was so happy and just bought another Groupon for highlights.

Carla was amazing.

9/18/2014 YELP Roberta M.
I've been going to Pilo since it opened. The only person I allow to touch my hair is Tony Chez. That's because he's wonderful. He listens to what you want and makes sure you're happy before you get out of the chair. I get a fantastic cut every time. Over the years the attitude of the people who work there and the ambiance of the place has improved. The staff is friendlier and it doesn't seem to be as hectic as it once was. If you go there and are not happy let management know the reason.

Jessica was a perfection !!! A creative genius who did such a great job with my daughters hair that I am bringing the rest of my family to her ! Pilo is a beautiful, elegant, classy salon that even served us cappacinos. LOVED it there. 100% favorite salon in New York !

Their hospitality is excellent. They took me right away. Rano was great and gave me a great cut. Definitely worth the full price of services and I would go back without a Groupon.

Carla was great! She listened to what I wanted gave me a warmer shade of blonde and a complete set of highlights. Her service was excellent and she treated me the same as a non-groupon customer. I definitely recommend her.

Dayna & Betsy are the ultimate go to for your wedding! My hair and makeup lasted all day and night without touchups, and to say I felt like a doll is an understatement! They are the godesses of hair & makeup!

Alessandra is the best! I have very curly hair and she is one of the very few people who I can trust to cut it. She cuts it in a way that looks great both curly and blown out. She has a good eye and offers suggestions. She is super sweet!

My Bridal Party, (5 girls) and I used Pilo Arts for the day of my Wedding. Each of us left Pilo looking absolutely GORGEOUS. I ordered some bagels and juice to be delivered there upon opening, and much to my pleasure, it was completely not frowned upon by staff or management. Instead, I was hailed as a very responsible, thoughtful Bride. Hooray for compliments! :) Fendi did my hair, and what an outstanding job she did!!! I had brought her a picture for my trial a month prior, and was impressed. The day of? I was FLOORED by the perfect job she did! Suzanne did ALL of our makeup, and her makeup artistry skills were full force on my Wedding Day! Although my makeup idea differed from hers, she very reasonably explained that the day was going to be over 100*, and she didn't want the makeup to wear off. I eventually relented, and I'm so happy that I did!!! My makeup stayed true and perfect for 13+ hours! Between Suzanne and Fendi, my Wedding Day looks could not have been better. THANK YOU BOTH! The staff at Pilo, while having a notorious reputation for being snooty and aloof, was anything but. They were accommodating, patient, and friendly.

I have never been to Pilo Arts before but since I had a gift certificate for a cut and blow, I decided to have my hair colored as well. Rano was my hairstylist and at first I was uncertain whether I was going to be happy with the outcome. I told Rano that I wanted something that would frame my face and have layers. She did the rest. After coloring my hair she gave me a cut and then a "Brazilian Blow Out". My hair, which is naturally curly and to me very unmanageable was now as straight as a board. I posted the pic on Facebook and received about 40 comments and likes. It was amazing. Some people did not even recognize me. I felt more attractive than I had in my entire life. I have Rano to thank for that and will definitely be back in a month for the same treatment. While pricey, you really do get what you pay for at Pilo Arts.

I have been going to Pilo Arts for years for everything from trims, haircuts, color, highlights, ombre, updos, makeup & lashes. Alessandra is the girl to see if you want great hair and Suzanne will make you feel like a different person with her makeup skills. I have never been disappointed with any service I've received and find their prices comparable to other salons in Bay Ridge.

I needed a change. Opted with Ombré with a Master stylist. I've had an ombré before and loved it. Cost me a fortune and I left not completely thrilled with the outcome. I thought it would grow on me but I just ended up hating it. $240 down the drain. The color just did not suit my face whatsoever and made my hair look completely dead. So I came back one month later and just wanted to go back to my normal brunette color. The ombré ruined any hope I ever had in 'change'. Bleh. So I had Colleen to fix me up and she was lovely. Listened to exactly what I had in mind and went above and beyond to make sure I loved it. I will be coming back to her for now on for future cuts and color.

Stefanie is an absolute artist! She has been cutting my hair for well over 6 years, fashioning me with everything from trims to full blown style changes (even a pixie!). Stefanie somehow managed to make the growing out process livable - a hard task when "recovering" from a super short 'do. Today was my first time dabbling in the color realm, and Stefanie far exceeded my expectations. As always, I walked out the door happy, confident, and with a gorgeous head of hair. When you go to Pilo, you're getting the best. With the prices in NYC, you're getting an absolute steal for the quality of the cut and color.

I've been here twice, once because I had a free blow out that they had donated to a charity benefit and the second time for a haircut.  I had great experiences both times, the staff was extremely friendly and made me feel very welcome and comfortable both times I was there.   My stylist is Danielle and she is great, she really listens to exactly what you want and offers her professional advice as a good stylist should do during a consultation. I loved my last haircut (got it in July) and today I am going back to get a trim.   AND....when you go here, they take your email and send you monthly promotions which is awesome!

Dilcia, oh Dilcia. I've never met an aesthetician so awesome and confident in what she does. I can't wait for her to start with facials!

My first experience at Pilo was recently with hard wax - a new product offered by Dilcia at this salon. I got my bikini done and it was amazing.

Pain was very minimal for a wax, and she got all that hair out by the root. You know how sometimes you go for a wax, but some of the hair rips and the root stays? Not with This wax. All my hair was completely out.
This type of wax is very low on mess, and I feel so good and clean right now. Im walking and talking a little differently and feeling like quite the fancy pants. Dilcia also gave me plenty of tips on how to keep skin healthy and naturally smooth.

This service is performed in a clean (most hygienic I've seen yet, actually), beautiful environment with a sweetheart who really knows what she's doing and will make you feel relaxed with both her positive attitude and skill. Go see Dilcia for a hard wax.

PS: I also had the pleasure to meet Elena, the owner of the salon. She is sweetness in a dish - very warm, knowledgeable and receptive.

I have been going to Pilo Arts for many years and have always gotten great cuts and color. However, my regular stylist was absent due to pregnancy and I was given Mo as my colorist and stylist. He is GREAT. I got such a great haircut and the color is fabulous. I praise him highly for his talents and his ability to please his customers. Thanks Mo!!!!!

This is the second time posting. Don't know why yelp puts it in the filters. What validity does my review have if the pick and choose what to post. To read all the great reviews click on the filtered link below.
What an AMAZING salon. I throughly enjoyed my experience there. They far exceed, by a big stretch, any salon I have been to in Manhattan and Bay Ridge.
Pilo Arts, from the minute I walked in was buzzing. A busy salon means a popular salon with a large happy clientele.
I was greeted with a smile, offered a drink, and my coat was taken and hung. I sat down in pure bliss, thinking to myself "now this is luxury." as I nibbled on the pretzels provided.
I barely sat waiting for more than 5 mins before being led away to the wash basin where I got the most incredible shampoo - I love head massages. After my wash I was taken to my stylist Paul who gave me an incredible color, cut and blow out, I walked out there feeling like I was on top of the world. What was amazing too was they ran on time despite how busy they were.
Pilo arts, I love you guys and can't wait to come back. Your prices are low considering what a top notch salon you are and I am impressed by all your awards, I can see why you are ranked as one of the top 5 color salons in NY. I can't wait to come back for another 5 star treatment and will def spread the word to my fellow colleagues, friends and family members.

I have been going to Pilo Arts for many years now. The five star service starts as soon as you walk in to the minute you leave. First being greeted by the staff at the front desk. Always being offered something to drink and even to snack on while you wait just a short time for your pampering service to begin. Never waited more then 5 minutes.
Every time I walk into the salon there are always crowds of people getting pampered just like me. Usually clients that keep coming back over and over again just because the services are top notch. (Nothing better)
Now being a mom to a busy toddler I look forward to heading out to Pilo Arts for my day of pampering. You can always count on anyone of the experienced employees at Pilo Arts to help keep you up with today's hair and makeup.
I highly recommend anyone looking for a amazing salon with top notch employees try Pilo Arts. You won't be disappointed and I bet you will continue going back.

Pilo Arts Day Spa and Salon is the best salon you can go to in Brooklyn or Staten Island. I have been going to this salon for years and love it. The Staff is friendly and nice, always trying to make you feel good and wants you to have a great experience from the time you walk in the door to when you are ready to leave. The service I love the most at Pilo is getting my hair done. Recently I have been seeing Danielle Pietroluongo for my hair services and this stylist is amazing. From cutting to color she knows her stuff. I have been getting highlights for over 3 years and have been wanting to do something different, but anyone i saw would tell me stuck to highlights it looks good on you and brings out your eyes. My husband has always wanted me to go darker with my hair color and people would always tell me don't do it your skin is too fair and you will look pale and morbid. I told Danielle i wanted something different and told her my concerns with going darker but she picked out an awesome color and made me feel so comfortable I trusted her judgement as a professional. I was so happy with the results. My hair looks so healthy and shiny with my new color, also it gave me a new look. All my friends can't stop telling me how much they love my hair darker & I think the darker hair makes my eye color stand out more. Now I have been back to her about 3 times for touch ups and every time it looks better then the last. She knows her stuff when it comes to color and picking color that will compliment your skin type and features to make you look beautiful. She is also very good at cutting and styling. I recently went to a wedding and went to see Danielle the morning of the wedding. I told her I wanted my hair styled but I did not want anything fancy as an up-do. Well she made me look and feel sexy and beautiful the way she waved and curled my hair. It was bouncy and lasted all night. All I have to say is go see her, she listens to what her customer wants but also gives suggestions on how to make the style work for them. Her prices are also very reasonable, you can't go wrong.

After searching for several years, I have finally found a salon which provides me with all the necessary facilities and accommodations that I need when it comes to getting a decent haircut. Pilo arts provides a terrific ambience with warm and friendly staff members whose main function is to assist clients to feel comfortable and relaxed while having their hair styled by some of the best stylists on this planet. I was fortunate enough to reconnect with Danielle, a kind and talented hair stylist, who I had the pleasure of working on my hair for some time when she was at another salon. Clearly her ability has improved significantly, and I am thrilled to have found her at pilo arts in bay ridge brooklyn. I can highly recommend Danielle to anyone who wants a professional hair treatment from one of the best stylists in this City. For any female who wants to receive only the best will want Danielle for this purpose. Don't wait another moment. Get on over to pilo arts Salon quickly as possible....!!

Great!  I just moved to Brooklyn from Manhattan to raise a family and was of course worried about finding a close to home salon.   My hair is hilighted and layered cut.   My neighbor said the only place to go is Pilo. So I took a chance and walked in to make the appointment.  Very pretty decor and some smiley faces.  I said to myself "This is good".
So I asked if they could take now. I lucked out.  Their colorist Don had a cancelation and took me rite away.
I wont bore u with the details. But after he did his magic with foils and some sort of low lites he escorted me over to a stylist named Nina.
The consultation was great and she did her magic with her scissors.  As she was finishing Don came over to check his work.  The haircut complimented the color and visa versa!  Before i left i booked a massage for my husband in their spa.  I highly recommend this place.

I travel all the way to Brooklyn for Pilo.  I live in New Jersey but travel for my hair appointments to Brooklyn for Jayne Chillo at Pilo. The environment is always welcoming, I've never not been offered multiple drinks or food while waiting for Jayne (which has never been long either). The salon is clean, comfortable, stylish, and always friendly. It is always a pleasure to go and relax at Pilo. I look forward to my trips there because I always feel pampered.

Jayne tried her first ombre treatment on me and I loved it! It was first done last March and has still stayed until now. I let Jayne suggest me what she thinks will be a good fit for my hair and color and after so long as her customer, I completely trust her skill and opinions. She has the ultimate ombre expertise! She is educated and trained with the best and even does shows to present her work and teach. Jayne has never steered me wrong with my hair.

I just want to say that I have been to this salon several times, and every time that I come here, I am not only treated great, but I leave here looking beautiful. When you look good, you feel good, and the stylists here understand this. They take the time to sit down with me, and ask me what i like and what i don't like, and this makes me feel like we are communicating well. Every time I decide to try a new hair style or color, my stylist advises me to bring a picture with me. It is great to get what I want, and also to learn how to keep up with the style. Don't hesitate to come here. You will be so happy that you did!

Can i tell you all how impressed i was , lets start with i have not been to Pilo Arts in almost 6 years . I received a few phones calls with great deals . Lately i have been thinking of switching hair stylists , it was faith. I walked in and right away was greeted with smiles and offer of coffee , tea , wine , cheese and crackers. The new front desk made me feel so at home and cozy , Elena the owner was there as she always is and was so nice to see her and herself taking care of her business. Shortly after Dimitri greeted me and brought me over to Nina what a women very attentive and gave me the best hair cutting consult. The shampoo i had was by far the best ever . Nina gave me an amazing haircut and the blowout was just as good . I came in on a very busy day and got to see all the stylist work and each person in there had there own style and edge , there work looked beautiful. I will be returning to the salon with nina often , just so you all know the whole creative team is now having a 15.00 blow out special..

I've gone to this salon on and off for the past 12 years. I moved out New York for seven years but still went to get my hair done there while visiting every few months. I used to frequently get my hair cut and highlighted there and they always did a fantastic job. I haven't been coloring my hair for the past year but still go in every two months for a trim and they always do a fabulous job. I don't have a regular stylist there but have never gotten a bad cut or color there.

The salon itself can be kind of busy but the staff is accommodating and I've always received excellent service. Everything from checking your coat when you get there to offering a drink while waiting for color to process! I'm not sure if they still do training days, but they used to offer extremely discounted cuts and colors on Tuesdays by their students. The students were always supervised - sometimes it took a bit longer but they always did a fine job. Make sure to book an appointment for training days - they are always full.

My only negative experience was getting a Brazilian wax there a few years ago. The esthetician was not very nice and she was pretty rough. I let her know that she was hurting me but she didn't seem to care. I wouldn't ever go back there for a wax but it is my go to place for cut and color.

best Facial!!!!!  5 stars.   I visited Pilo Arts because I needed a facial so bad. I had so many blackheads and whiteheads that made my skin break out every day and needed to remove them. Everytime I went for a facial in Staten Island they ended up making my face worse, and made my skin break out even more. After having the 55 min facial and massage with Tasneem, I felt wonderful. She cleaned my face til I had no more blackheads and she also removed some whitehead that were near my eyes that were very hard to get rid of. I was going to a dermatologist for this problem I had with my skin, but she took care of it and saved me a lot of money. Pilo Arts should hire more people like her, she makes you feel very comfortable, Thanks again Tasneem!!!!!!!! You made me feel fantastic after......I GUESS YOU WILL BE SEEING ME EVERY MONTH!!!!!!!!!

Great Salon!!  This is a wonderful Salon. Are they pricey?? Yeah...but all the good Salons in Bay Ridge are! I started out with Victoria....one day she was busy, so I used Mo....and have gone to him ever since. He's a creative stylist, so his cut costs a little under $50. But here's why I love this salon....I hadn't had a haircut in a while...so they sent me an email asking what they could do to get me back in. I told them that I wanted a discount....well, they did one better---A complimenarty haircut!! Plus, when I went to get my free haircute, I got a voucher for a free manicure! Now, that's a good salon...plus they always have some promo going on if you sign up on their email list.

CONGRATULATIONS Mr Labarca,
Firstly, I just wanted to take this opportunity, After recognizing you the other night at "Uncle Vinny's comedy club" to CONGRATULATE you and your absolutely STUNNING fiance on the upcoming arrival of your son. If he looks anything like the 2 of you he's going to be one handsome little boy.
Secondly, it's been years, since I moved to Staten Island, that I was last in Pilo. Seeing you, and dare I say, better half ;-) reminded me of what great people work there which has inspired me not to be lazy and take the drive into brooklyn to experience you outstanding services. I say OUTSTANDING because when I went there, I received nothing but that and am confident nothing has changed in that domain.
I am looking forward to returning to your salon. I wish you and fiance all the best with the baby, and a very happy and healthy 2010 :-)

My husband and I enjoy Pilo Arts... so much that we recently moved all the way out to LIC and are still making the trip for this place.  Is it the warm reception: attentive reception desk, actual coat check, then asked what you would like to drink... (i've had everything from mimosas to cappuccinos while my husband has enjoyed a scotch) Or is it the A+ stylings of their hair dressers? (I love the way I look and feel by the time I leave this joint) ...I'm not going to decide. Will you?

Book with Jayne!‎ I had heard all the horror stories about PA, but had a gift certificate, so I had no choice but to use it. I was "assigned" jayne, and have been going to her ever since--about 3 years now. She does my cuts, color and recently gave me highlights that I got a million compliments on. She is always honest with me, telling me when I need to take off more than my usual 1/2 inch and last spring she gave me bangs to die for. I used the spa once for a Brazillian, and it was just ok, hence the 4 star review. i have thought about changing to a salon closer to my home, but I just can't take the chance! Jayne is brilliant and so, so sweet!‎

Great place for a retreat! I have recently had my hair colored by Don and styled by Mohammed. These two gentlemen made my day when they put their professional touch on my red-head trusses! Also a few weeks prior...I have received an indulging facial from Bella whom I have been going to for years. I felt so pampered and relaxed that I did not want to wake up when the treatment was over. She also does the best waxing services this side of down state New York! Give them a try...you'll be pleased trust me! The front desk staff is also very friendly and courteous!  Pros: Best Hair Stylists, Colorists and Aestheticians in NY!  Cons: parking

WOW! I drove my wife to try another hair place. This time it was in Brooklyn. We are from Manhattan. I was not sure why she picked this place. But i soon found out.
I dropped her off a looked for a parking spot on 3rd ave, which was not easy. Finally i walked into the salon and my wife had checked in with the front desk after waiting on a small line. Immediately were were wisked away to this most fabulous waiting area. Available was almost any refreshment or snack available. A gentle men walked in and asked where i parked and if i would need anybody to watch my meter. NICE! I don't know how they do it. The place was jammed and it was a Thursday. But everything was moving smoothly. They came for my wife and she began what she told me later was a dream salon come true. A while later a person came by and told me not to worry about my meter -it was taken of. The colorist came over soon later and told me her color was processing and she would be getting her haircut soon. About 45 min later another person told me my wife was almost finished and i could meet her in the front of the place. And sure enough she appeared and looked great. After she paid someone wisked her over to a makeup applier and got a complimentary makeup. Really nice people. I still cant figure out how they do it. 2 very attractive women, i think they were managers thanked us for coming. And said hope to see you again. They will.
Pros: Great value, service
Cons: Very busy, had to wait in line to check in

I had my hair done by Dana. My curls were set by Mayor. Both were very friendly & conversed with me throughout. I was taken in right away & finished in decent time of 2 hours. They offer you a nice selection of beverages & have a coat check. All the stylists have photo books of all of their own work which really helped know their strengths & therefore made choosing a style simpler. I had clip in extensions put in & they were really secured fantastically. Dana was so helpful in trying & playing around with different styles since I didn't have a trial. My 2 dislikes: the curls were not set tight enough in the extensions and fell out before the ceremony while my actual hair stayed curly (didn't look bad but not what I wanted) & the price with tax was very high-$182 (not including tip).

Worth Every Penny!!! Felt Like a Vacation!! I was at pilo arts just yesterday getting services done. I decided that I work too hard and it was time for a "Christina Day." Upon entering, I was greeted with smiles of radiance and such great courtesy. The assistant came to get me, and I was ready to be washed and soon to look and feel fabulous in a matter of minutes. When I sat in Mo's chair, he smiled and introduced himself and got straight to the point of asking ME what it was that I wanted. I had brought a cut out of the color and stlye I was looking for and he got to work. Throughout my time in his chair, he interacted with me, making sure that I was happy with the services. The color came out amazing, far better then what I had expected it to be, as was the cut, which he cut perfectly down to the last strand of hair. It was an overall wonderful experience and I will surley be returning again.
Pros: Good service, cheery and polite staff

Pilo Arts is by far the best salon experience I have had in all of the metro area. I have lived in Manhattan for 13 years and have visited many top notch salons. Pilo blew me away. Their service was exceptional, the price, compared to what I pay in manhattan, was relatively inexpensive and I walked out feeling like a million dollars. I now commute to Brooklyn every time I need my hair done, a facial or massage. I have and would highly recommend Pilo Arts. GREAT JOB keep it up.
THANK YOU

Yes, yes yes YESSSS.   As a recent transplant to Brooklyn I was in need of somewhere to get my hair permanently straightened - it was time to touch up the Japanese hair straightening done to my unruly mess and I could not find hardly anywhere in Brooklyn to do it. The few salons I talked to were rude or snooty but the staff at Pilo was very friendly on the phone. I spent about four hours with Tony today and left with completely perfect straight hair. I can honestly say it was the best job ANYONE has ever done using the Japanese straightening technique on my hair. Tony was lovely, funny, and friendly and the staff at Pilo was extremely nice. In six months when it's time for more touchups you can bet I will go nowhere else but here. Highly recommend!

I am VERY picky and skeptical about how my hair would look but just trust her and you will be absolutely pleased! You have my word for it- no regrets! I travel from OH to NY to get my hair cut and its well worth it! It may be pricey- "you get what you pay for!" You don't even need anything in mind to suggest to her she will make you walk out the salon with your head up high with superior style!‎

Let me start off as I was a hairdresser in NYC before I became a baby popper. It is really hard for me to trust anyone to cut my hair. I went to this salon, I loved it the ambiance was nice. I had Athena cut my hair. She knows what she is doing. If you could go in to Brooklyn, I definitely recommend this place.

My first experience with Pilo Arts was...  because i recieved a gift certificate from a co-worker. I used the gift certifercate and now i'm hooked. I've used a variety of their services and have never been disappointed. Massages superb, mani-pedi fantastic, cut and style fabulous, facils wonderful. The service is incredible everyone is so so so nice. It's the prefect place to kick back and relax. I love spending my saturdays there.

Pilo Arts Salon & Day Spa   5 stars   I have heard excellent things about the Pilo Arts Salon & Day Spa. I have heard glowing reviews about their massages, haircuts and manicures. Pilo Arts Salon & Day Spa is pretty expensive, but virtually every recommendation for them has been great. They offer massages, nail care, hair coloring and cuts, waxing and other beauty services. They have great packages for mother's day and other holidays.

fabulous- my new favorite spot!  I had been meaning to get a facial for some time & I am so glad I finally did it! I have instantly become a regular customer. I don't know what these other reviews are talking about- the entire front desk staff was nothing but polite and helpful. I stopped in to make an appointment during the 3rd Ave Festival and didn't know who to go to. I couldn't have been happier with Yolanda- she is amazing and couldn't be sweeter. I am a former hairstylist and worked in a spa for years- I know how these places often work & was expected an attempt at an upsell but I never got one- not even for products (but I bought lots of Dermalogica anyway!). I have absolutely nothing bad to say about Pilo Arts. Go and relax and you will be happy.

I have been going to Don for my color and Tania for my hair for months now! Don's color knowledge, and expertise has turned my hair color from loud to sophisticated! Tania's hair knowledge and expertise has turned my hair from botch jobs...to total modern classiness! Marie Antoinette is a side kick for Don that treats you like royalty, and she should be a perfect example to all up and coming apprentices in the salon. Her hair treaments and shampoo techniques are top knotch and the main reason why I specifically make my color and hair appointments on Thursdays. The finishing touches that are done courtesy of the make-up staff...help enhance my straight out the magazine look! I love you all! Don't Change...Keep up the Great Work! Just hire a valet to park my SUV, and my parking troubles will be over!

Creativity & positive atmosphere.  Definitely not a typical Brooklyn Spa. It is more of an upscale European Spa in its great tradition & of the Greenwich Village style where genuine friendliness, all welcome, artistically inclined with a touch of imagination and freedom is felt.
The uniques atmosphere of the holistic massage room is awesome and well suited for those who need more than a typical accommodations: the water fountain, crystals with prismatic light, and the surround sound with ambient and light trance sounds of Europe put you literally in a trance. Drinks are offered for free, private lockers, and a shower combined with a steam infused with essential oils given complimentary after the Spa treatments add the effect of forgetting the problems of everyday life and entering a retreat for the calming of the mind and body. A unique place slightly ahead of its time.

Sit Back and Relax!  I won a gift certificate to Pilo Arts from a radio station that I listen to all the time. I came in for a full Day of Beauty and words alone cannot describe my overall experience. Their Spa is beautiful and very peaceful, their staff is friendly and kind, the place is beautiful and the services are the best I've ever received. Not only did they make me look beautiful but they made me feel welcomed from the moment I checked in. I will go back for more......and I'm definitely putting Pilo Arts on Santa's list!  Pros: Great Staff, Beautiful Place, Cutomer Serivce

**STAR QUALITY**  I have been a client at Citysearch of Pilo Art's for more than 5 years and have never been disappointed. From the moment i walk into the salon i feel like a million dollars. The managers and front desk always greet me with kindness. I know that the salon's top priority is customer service and you can tell by the way each client is treated. Its a beautiful place to be in and you are surrounded by beautiful people as well. Each time i get my haircut from Stefani, i am always pleased and cant wait until i can get another.

A taste of heaven.  I was recommended to Pilo Arts by a friend and I was blown away. Sara gave me the most pampering four layer facial ever followed by the magical hands of Jessica for a massage. Then the owner herself poured me a Mimosa and gave me a wonderful tour of the rest of the Salon. I would highly recommend Pilo Arts!!!

A great Day Spa in Brooklyn:  Received a mini day of beauty as a gift. I arrived early and was offered hot herbal tea to sip before my treatment. Down to the spa I went to see Stuart for a scrub and massage. Never been in better hands. I then went to get my hair cut by Stephanie and mani / pedi by Ella. I left feeling like a queen. Awesome place.

Best Birthday Ever.  It was my birthday recently, and my family had surprised me with a gift certificate for a one hour facial and massage from Pilo Arts. I knew immediately that I needed to call up as soon as possible since it is one of the most popular salons in Brooklyn and the appointments fill up really quickly there. When I called up later on that day, one of the lovely receptionists had answered the phone and helped me schedule an appointment for that weekend, which was exactly what I needed. And, from that point on, I became even more amazed. The massage with Jessica and the facial with Bella were wonderful including the relaxing steam shower that I took after all of my services. I felt like the most important birthday girl ever!

Melt like butter: I recently received a gift certificate for a massage at Pilo Arts in Bay Ridge. I was told to see Stuart. I wasn't comfortable with a man therapist at first, but he was very professional while he worked. If you are overworked or simply like to pamper yourself, Stuart's your man. The spa is clean, the atmosphere comfortable, the steam shower awesome. My advice would be to get there early to sip on a complimentary mimosa or cappacino.

A Picture Perfect Day!  When I woke up on my wedding day to see it cold and rainy, it didn't start out the way I planned. When I got to Pilo Arts, I was greeted with a warm and hospitable staff. I sat in the chair of their make-up artist, Suzanne, who came highly recommended. My make-up looked natural, yet elegant. I received my proofs, and I must say, I looked like a princess! Thank you Pilo Arts!
And I must say she ended my beauty time perfectly. Her calm nature kept me even toned and she worked very swiftly and professionally. I was so glad that my day had turned around and I have to thank Pilo Arts for that!

The best of the best without the trip to manhattan: I visited your salon to have my color corrected from a mistake made by one of your competators. I was directed to see Riccardo by a wonderful young lady from the front desk. Her name was Melissa.I wanted to be brought back, as close as I could, to my natural color. Riccardo talked with me for quite some time before he formulated my color. I was served champagne and made to feel comfortable. The atmosphere in the color department was friendly and professional. After lightening my hair and putting some final low-lites, Riccardo made me feel and look like my old self. It was my daughters wedding the next weekend. My daughter and my husband both couldn't get over the rejuvination of my hair. He is definatly a five star colorist. Thanks to Riccardo, I felt as pretty as the bride. The only complaint I might have is the parking conditions are not so great due to all the business in the area. Great restaurants. Thanking you again, Claudia Piazza

Pilo is Magnificant.  Pilo Arts Day Spa and Salon is magnificent and promotes beauty and excellence. As I arrived, the doors of Pilo open and the pampering begins as the receptionist welcomed me into their home with coffee, tea, or wine. The atmosphere is awesome because it is a calm and stress free environment which caters to the needs of their clients. I have received many services at Pilo such as haircuts with the artistic team, color with the color department, and facials and massages after a hard and long day at work. Pilo keeps me coming back for more because I want to see and experience everything the salon has to offer. I look forward for that weekly reminder to confirm my appointment because I will soon have the pleasure of returning to Pilo. I highly recommend Pilo Arts Day Spa and Salon because the staff is talented, knowledgeable, and professional.

The friendly and accommodating Front desk receptionist offered me everything to make me feel at home. I was given a cappuccino, had my coat check and seated in a special waiting area. Boy did I feel like Queen!! Even though the salon seemed to be very busy, the manager personally came to greeted me. One haircut turned to color, highlights, make up, eyebrow threading, & my nails done. Each department not only did a wonderful job but educated me with tips of how to keep up my new look. I was so impressed with all the talent that I found in one place. I think you too should give this salon a chance to make you beautiful.

You'' be satisfied.  Pilo Arts is one of the best, if not the best, hair salons in the Tri-State area. Paul Pastore, the owner of Polio, has been cutting my hair for several years now and I've never left unhappy with my new cut. The staff is friendly and polite. I've recommended Pilo to several people and there has never been any negative feedback from their visit. Some people may say parking is tough, but where isn't parking tough in Brooklyn. The next time you need a hair cut for a special occasion or its just time for a haircut, I'd call Pilo and make an appointment because you wont be disappointed. And while you there, get your nails or make-up done and maybe enjoy a relaxing massage.

Bad hair day.  I came to New York from my hometown in Pennsylvania. I never knew how horrible my hair actually was until I noticed all the stares I received from people that walked by me. I asked a coworker, who always had fabulous hair, where she went to get her hair done. She recommended Pilo to me, and I decided to check it out online as well. It received great reviews and I figured what more was there to lose. So I went in for a consultation and met with Don for color and Ivan for a cut. I decided to book the appointment then and there. Lets just say my orange coif is no more. I now have healthy, radiant hair. Watch out New York because here I come. Right off of a Pantine ad! A+

Mans view of Pilo Arts.  Came to your salon for a couple of services. Had a back wax by Yolanda which was totally painless. Went upstairs to see Riccardo for some Low Lites which brought me back twenty years. I had a haircut by Tonia. While I was in her chair she made me feel like I was the only one in the salon. The services I received were above and beyond any Manhattan salon. The prices are somewhat reasonable and parking is fair but worth the wait. I finally found a full service salon to take care of all my needs. I was made to feel like a King. My appointment was on a weekend and the salon was packed but everything ran on time . They gave me the best customer service I have ever received, especially with the crowd they service.

A Fabulous Day Of Beauty.  Last week I had the pleasure to spend some time at your salon. This was my first time there and it was one of the most delightful experiences of my life. For a salon to employee so many talented people and still be able to give you that one on one experience. You have a colorist there named Riccardo. He greeted me when I arrived and we had a consultation . He made me feel as if he knew me my whole life. He was very knowledgeable about his work. His over all appearance and personality made me feel as though I was in a Manhattan . My hi-lites were fantastic. The over all treatment at your salon was A+. From your front desk, to the assistants and right through to your color department. Riccardo catered to my every need. I would highly recommend Riccardo and Pilo Arts to anyone.

Loved every minute:  This was my first time at Pilo Arts after hearing many wonderful things about it. I had a massage and a facial. Apon arrival I was offered a drink and waited in a lovely waiting room with beautiful furniture and listened to soft music. I then was led to a room to change. During the massage and facial I was throurghly cared for, felt constantly relaxed. The massage left me completely relaxed and floating on cloads. Jessica was amazing and worked out every ache in my muscles. I then took a steam shower that I never wanted to leave. I would highly recommend Pilo Arts to anyone, and can't wait to go back for more.

a little bit of heaven.  I cant begin to tell you the great experience my girlfriends and i had at Pilo Arts. We traveled from Manhattan and from the moment we entered the pampering started. We were whisked away to to our stylists with champagne in hand. I started in the Spa with a facial from Bella. It was very quiet and soothing in the spa. Then i went upstairs to the color dept. Don gave me the most beautiful and natural hilites i ever received. After a massaging shampoo that lasted about 15 minutes i moved along to Tony for a fantastic haircut. We actually all walked out happy as can be.

Every visit is a special treat.. Every experience at Pilo is always wonderful. The front desk is always inviting. The managers are always extremely accommodating. The styling is exceptional. The spa relaxing. Pilo's make-up artists always provide services which enhance my natural beauty....The list goes on.... I usually go weekly for a blow out.. When my usual stylist isn't available, the receptionists refer me to someone else, and am always satisfied. Never one bad experience. Highly recommended.
Pros: Warm welcome, Wine

World ClassPilo Arts Salon & Day Spa. I have heard excellent things about the Pilo Arts Salon & Day Spa. I have heard glowing reviews about their massages, haircuts and manicures. Pilo Arts Salon & Day Spa is pretty expensive, but virtually every recommendation for them has been great. They offer massages, nail care, hair coloring and cuts, waxing and other beauty services. They have great packages for mother's day and other holidays.

Satisfied new client.  I just want to say that I was very impressed with the staff and overall services offered at Pilo Arts Day Spa & Salon. The customer service rivals the best day spas in the country, a rarity for New York City. I had the four layer facial with Bella and la stone therapy with stewart, and for the two hours that I spent in the spa, I was in total bliss. I then received a hair cut with Paul, who happens to be a member of Intercoiffure. The cut was incredible. I definitely going to return.
Pros: Reasonably Priced, Full Service Spa, On Line Booking

Me and all my girls were very happy with everything that they did for us. We were 5 girls and my mom and my mother in law. We all got our hair done and make-up. They had the time we needed and they took there time and we were all very pleased with the outcome. I recommended them everytime I knew someone was getting married. They evern have a great spa to relax you before you big day.
