This salon excels any other Fantastic Sams in the tri-state area. I was extremely happy with my haircut provided by Larena. She was professional and listened to what I wanted. I would highly recommend her. This is just as good as any upscale salon I have been to. You will not be disappointed!

Ask for Marah, she is sweet, gentle (I know because I am very tender headed), and really listens to what you want! She doesn’t make you feel intimidated or afraid to say when you want/don’t want something. She also does amazing hair tinsels!!! It was my first time ever getting them done and she was so quick!!

Pranvera did an amazing job with my daughter’s haircut and styling. She truly listens, understands what you want, and is excellent with customer service.

When I arrived it was pretty busy. So I sat down to wait. They went through the ppl very quickly. After 45 minutes the manager let me know someone would be with me. Meanwhile 3 others come and and left. The girl that was to get me next was to busy talking to the couple as she was doing the husband's hair. 1/2 hr later manager tells stylest someone is waiting. After watching her not give Af and still talking and taking her time I just left. Wasted hr of my time that I will never get back. Sad thing I always recommend this place and now I won't be going back again. They showed me my time and money wasn't needed.

I cannot say enough good things about this branch of Fantastic Sams in Colonie, New York. Myself and several family members have been going here for about 3 years and have never had anything but amazing quality service, friendly management and very fair prices. A special shout out to hairdresser Marina who does amazing work and manager Cheryl who is on top of her game and makes sure everything runs smoothly and efficiently. I highly recommend this branch.

Been coming here for years, it’s either a great haircut, an unpleasant experience or an average “we tried.”
Last 2 fades weren’t faded at all, they were buzzcuts I could do at home.
Today, (Drusilla?) gave me a 5 star fade, even touched up my lines and a proper shampoo! Great attention to detail, hope to see you back there next time! 5 stars
