This is truly one of the best hair salons I’ve ever been to. The amount of time, care, and attention the stylists put into every part of the service is incredible. Even the hair wash and head massage was so meticulous and relaxing, and my hair looked absolutely amazing when I left.
Toki was wonderful! so sweet, professional, and incredibly skilled. You can tell how much care he puts into his work. The salon itself is also such a cute, welcoming space.
The prices are extremely reasonable, especially for the level of service you receive. I’ve been to much more expensive luxury salons and genuinely had a better experience at Brave. I can’t recommend this salon highly… read full review

Reviews
This is already my 4th time getting a haircut and color here!! 😊
Aki is incredibly kind, and their hair styling skills are truly the best—the haircuts are absolutely beautiful with every single detail meticulously taken care of.
Aki always communicate thoroughly to deliver the exact style I want. When I was hesitant about coloring, they recommended the perfect shade based on my hair condition and my desire. They also use truly high-quality products. The reservation system ensures my time is fully dedicated to my hair with utmost care.
Even as a Korean, I find this salon far more trendy and luxurious than any Korean salon in New York. This is our only go-to place.🤗
Aki was very professional, precise, and thoughtful throughout the appointment. He carefully reviewed the hairstyle I wanted and made great haircut suggestions based on my face shape. I’m very happy with the result and would definitely return for other services.
