C and C Hair Salon

I was in desperate need of getting highlights and color since my roots were showing, they were at the point of Arrrgghhhh because I haven’t had time. I’ve passed C&C a few times going home from work and I liked the prices and the reviews.
One day, I passed by and spoke with the owner Gengis, he had an appointment for the next day during my lunch hour, he informed me everything would be less than 2 hours. I came back the next day and he did a wonderful job, he talked me through what he would be doing and I must say, I am beyond pleased especially with the price.
The atmosphere is small but it is warm and friendly, not stuffy at all. The woman who shampooed my hair, OMG! The best head massage ever while she was
Shampooing my hair.
I’ll definitely be back to get my hair shampooed and highlighted again :)

I love this place ! I have had my hair done in many different salons in Manhattan, from very high end to neighborhood places. This by far is my favorite, my whole family comes here along with a bunch of our friends and neighbors for cuts, highlights, straightening and blow drys. Great prices and the nicest people

I have been going to Gengiz for four years now and I would not consider anyone else to do my color or highlights. He is an amazing talent and always so accommodating. I have sent more friends than I can even count to C&C and everyone has been thrilled and continually returns and sends more folks. Well done!

Love this place! Amazing color and highlights for an amazing price ! No other hair salon like it on the upper east side.

Best haircut, color and blowdry on the upper east side for the best price! I’m a person who is extremely picky about my hair but C and C gets it perfect every time. I would never go anywhere else, I even travel 20 minutes by train now just to get my hair done here! I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great haircut by great people for a reasonable price.

I am very picky person when it comes to service. I want it all. Fair price, good manners, nice environment and people who know what they’re doing. I got all of that C&C salon and have never been happier with hair cut. Cemile was pleasant and professional and did exactly what I wanted. Thank you so much:)

I got referred to this place by a friend and got my hair done by Cemile about 1 week ago. She Dyed/​Cut/​blew dry my hair. I have to say the service was fantastic, she listened to what I wanted and even gave me advice on what would look better.
Also her blow dries are to die for. I have never experienced having my hair blown out and staying no more then literally 1 day. Her’s will stay at least 3 – 4 days.
I would recommend this place to anyone.

I stopped in tonight for a cut/​blow out as a first time client just walking by and in desperate need of a hair cut. The salon is very small with just a few chairs, and both stylists had someone in their chair. The male (who I assumed to be the owner) was just finishing up on a client and I figured he could give me a quick cut, and he welcomed me in saying it would be just a few minutes. To my surprise, the same person who washed my hair (who gave a great wash) continued to put me in a chair and take out scissors. This was clearly not what I was expecting and I asked if she cut hair often. She assured me it was fine and she would give me a trim.
I am not exaggerating when I say this was the worst hair cut I’ve ever received. She did not even know how to maneuver scissor and comb at once, and towards the end just began to cut along the edge of my cape… NOT USING HER SECOND HAND AT ALL. When it came time to blow dry… She used her fingers and no brush. At this point I was livid, and said «that’s it?!»
At THIS point the «owner» steps in saying it was a misunderstanding. He should have cut my hair in the first place. I worked at a hair salon for 2 years as an assistant, and while I never pursued beauty school, I could have given myself the haircut I received tonight. First impressions are important, and I can’t believe I was even charged the 26 and change that they took from me.
Absolutely never going back, and for anyone who plans to visit, think again.

One word — horrible! This place doesn’t even deserve 1 star. I asked for layers and a v shape in the back. No layers and my hair is choppy as hell. This old man has no techniques/​skills to cut hair. He does not know how to layer or blend resulting in very choppy layers. I looked at it in disbelief and told him how choppy this was. His response was «sweetie, it’s not» then attempted to curl my hair so that it won’t look choppy. WTH?! He doesn’t even compare the two sides at the end to see if it’s even, now my hair is shorter on one side. Grrr! I was charged for a blow out but again this old man cannot blow dry hair. It looks like I just air dry it. Seriously I don’t mind paying a high price for a good haircut, but this is expensive and it sucks! Now I have to spend more money to get it fix somewhere else. How can you call yourself a hair stylist?! I wanted to cry in the store.

I made an appointment to have an up-​do done for a wedding. The woman who did it was rude and not only did she do nothing that I asked with my hair, but the up-​do was TERRIBLE. Attaching a pic for reference. One of the male workers tried to salvage but it still was pretty bad. I will never return and encourage others to stay away!

Had the 2^nd worst haircut in my life here. It’s unfortunate I can’t give bad ratings to the person and not the salon. I’m not sure which part of «I like to hide my forehead, so could you cut my front hair just a little bit, and only vertically» compelled the person to entirely do away with my front hair. It was also the most painful haircut I ever experienced, and anyone could tell this person was very inexperienced. Seeing generally good review for this salon, maybe i would give it another try.

I don’t know who could cut my hair better, even at a much higher price. Ghengis takes his time, follows the picture I bring in, and my short hair looks good a few weeks later, not just that day. He is a quiet, nice man. My husband went to him first, and I’m glad I followed. The other people in the shop are just as nice. It is not a fancy salon, but if you are looking for a good haircut, you can find it here.

I got my hair cut and highlights by gengis for 2 years I m so happy I love the service, the owner gengis is the best doing highlights. Great job!

I get my hair cut and started doing highlights for the last 3years. I love this place and would not go anywhere else! The service and the price are phenomenal!

Gengis and his entire crew is awesome. Great cuts, great service. I’m one happy customer :-)

As several others have already mentioned, Gengis is amazing at what he does. My hair was really damaged when I started seeing him and now my hair is so much better. I now live in Chicago and I am still trying to find someone to do my hair as well as he did. Highly recommend this salon!!!

Just moved here a few months ago. Went to this salon last week and highly recommend it. Great haircut, friendly service and affordable pricing. I was thrilled!

Was in desperate need of a cut and, of course, short on time! Stopped in and they were able to take me right away. Gengis gave me a great cut, staff was friendly and you can’t beat the price.
I definitely wouldn’t classify this as a fancy, high-​class spot but very nice nonetheless!

I recently went to this salon because I was desperately in need of a trim for my hair. I have very long, thick hair, so I like to know that the person cutting it isn’t going to go crazy and get scissor-​happy. Gengis, the owner, did a wonderful job with my hair. He talked me through everything and my hair feels so much thicker and healthier after getting it cut at C&C. I highly recommend going here – ask for Gengis and your hair will be in good hands!
(Not to mention the coffee they gave me tasted really good…)

I got the worst haircut of my life at this «salon». I have dead straight hair and not only was it completely crooked but he cut it so it sticks out in the back. When I returned a few days later to ask him (Gengis– the owner) he was rude and insulting and nasty to me. He refused to correct the crocked and ghastly haircut. He told me it was perfect and even refused to look at my hair. He told me to get out of his shop.
Do not go to this salon. There are plenty of other places to go to in New York. It was the worst hair cut but also it was shocking how nasty and abusive he was to me.
