Ive been a Beauty for Ashes client for quite some time. My journey to Beauty for Ashes started with hair loss. I went feeling cynical and knowing they wouldnt have answers and boy was I wrong. I actually ended up stopping the regimen that was recommended by my dermatologist. It was not working at all. Andrea was able to do microscope exams and show me what was going on with my scalp and then help me develop a regimen that stopped the hair loss and retrain me to keep my hair healthy and strong. In 2016, I had patches thinning and whole areas that refuse to grow. I am proud to say that going to Beauty for Ashes Salon was the best decision I ever made regarding my hair. I have never been to a salon like this that puts hair Health ahead of style and everything else. We are continued customers. She has also taken on teaching me a comprehensive regimen for how to take care of my daughters hair and sees her quarterly as well for Trims and checkups. Andrea offers services that are both healthy and educational. And truly wants whats best for your healthy hair Journey. She is also a very talented stylist and will help you incorporate the look you are going for while keeping your hair Health at the Forefront. Pictures below are my hair this year and my daughters most recent twist out. You would not believe my healthy hair journey I cannot even bring myself to post pictures of my pre Beauty for Ashes natural hair. Trust me I am only one of her many testimonials.
I am disappointed with the pricing, lack of equipment working during my visit (being charged the same price for a service that was not fully serviced to me), lack of communication with the owner, etc. It has been three months since my appointment, and I honestly regret the drive from Queens and the money I spent because I did not receive the service I paid for. I support Black Owned Businesses (I purchased products, vitamins, and her book while there), but these Black Business Owners need to service and treat their customers better. This was a COMPLETE waste of money, tolls, mileage, and my time. I am suffering from hair loss, and she did nothing to help me with that. Never again!
A wonderful experience for my hair! The best thing about Beauty For Ashes is Andrea gives you tips and product recommendations on how to care for your hair AFTER you leave the salon! We all know maintenance is the key to your best hair and she sets you up to succeed.Her price point is higher than other places I’ve been but a visit with Andrea is the treat I give myself and feel great about it later!
I appreciate the kindness I received today when I came in to get my hair done. The discount offer email I received was the reason I came in today. Alyssa was gentle and patient as she did my hair. The conversations we had, the advice, and suggestions on how to care for my hair were genuine, and well received. Love my hair!! Looking forward to the next visit!! Thanks Alyssa. Thanks Andrea.
I had the most amazing experience with Andrea. After transitioning for nearly 2 years I decided to get a deva cut. Best decision I ever made. My hair looks amazing and I look like a completely different person. Andrea was very informative while doing my hair, from how to wash it and deep condition to how to maintain it when I sleep. Definitely 5* treatment.
This was my first visit and I wasn’t sure what to expect. I am glad to say that my salon experience was amazing! Alyssa took great care of me. She was very patient and took her time to answer all my questions and explain what she was doing and why. I definitely will be back!
Alyssa was amazing! so detail oriented and I felt like I was in control of my haircut from start to finish. The products she used were amazing and at the end I had a customized wash and go plan, couldn’t recommended beauty for ashes or Alyssa more and I am already looking forward to my 3 month re shape!
Love going to Andrea. She is attentive and informative. I went from not getting a hair cut in 2 years, to going every 3 months. I’m constantly getting compliments on how healthy and good my hair looks. Thanks for all the tips and tricks for keeping my curls bouncy. See you in September!!!!🥰❤️
I recently moved to the area and had previously gone to a curly hair stylist. I found Beauty for Ashes online and chose them based on the raving reviews. Andrea took great care of me and my hair - I appreciated her attention to detail and expertise. She gave me some great recommendations on how to improve my curl care and how to keep my hair low maintenance but healthy. I’ll be back!
Andrea is an excellent, knowledgeable and gifted stylist! I absolutely LOVE my haircut. She took the time to explain what she was doing and continuously asked for my input to ensure I received the style that I envisioned. Her staff are friendly, accommodating and professional and the overall vibe of the salon and experience was very positive! I shall be returning soon!Jade
Great salon experience! It was my first visit and Andrea made me feel at ease. She first listened, discussed options with me and only then did she proceed with our style plan. The way she shaped my hair confirmed that she had not only listened, but, had the skill to get it done just the way I wanted.Glad to have found a natural hair care salon I can trust.
I went in for the Cut it Kinky Cut and Andrea did an amazing job! I received a few curly cuts in the past, but this cut is by far the best. Finally a person who knows how to cut my hair and can recommend products that will give me the desired results. My wash and go at the end of the service was the bomb com. I purchased the recommended products and was able to replicate the style. Im so happy that finally I found products that works for my hair. Ill definitely be back.
Our first time there today, and Alyssa was amazing! She worked wonders on my 8 year old daughter’s silk press. Alyssa was gentle, and informed me about every step. So glad I found your salon on Google for her first straightening! We will be back :)
I have been searching for a salon like this my entire life. TYESHA cut my hair beautifully and meticulously. She clearly explained every step, and the results were more than I imagined. Fantastic salon. Very happy with my hair.
Always a great experience! It’s my third time coming to the salon everyone is professional and pleasant! I love how I am in and out with little to no wait. Andrea is very knowledgeable about hair and if you are looking for someone who will teach you and guide you on your healthy natural hair journey this is the place for you.
I wanted a salon that was passionate about natural hair. My experience at Beauty for Ashes Salon was everything I expected! My stylist was Alyssa; she provided me with information and tips to keep my hair healthy. I left informed and excited on my renewed natural hair journey! New client!
She was so kind, professional, and definitely knew what she was doing! I traveled an hour just for Beauty For Ashes and was NOT disappointed. This first visit made me into a regular client.
Ive been a client for 7+ years and Im never disappointed when I get my hair done by Andrea. Shes very knowledgeable and caring when it comes to any questions you may have about your hair. Even though I live in a different state and travel over an hour to get my hair done by her, its well worth the drive! Im grateful for Beauty for Ashes!
I can’t say enough positive things about my first visit with Tyesha. Her knowledge and skills are great but even more so are her willingness and ability to educate her clients. I left with a new look and the ability to keep it up. I’m super happy with my experience.
I had a great experience at the Beauty for Ashes Salon. My stylist, Andrea, was very knowledgeable and helped me to gain a better understanding about my naturally curly hair, as well as products that work best for my hair type. I am looking forward to my next visit!
I honestly can’t wait to come back. The women who worked there were very kind and there is no wait time. The time you picked for your appointment is the time they see you. They don’t do anything to your hair that you don’t want done and the atmosphere is just very soothing and welcoming. Can’t wait to be back in 4 months
I had a great experience at the salon. Alyssa instructed me on how to hydrate and define my hair during my curl therapy bootcamp session. It was very informative and would recommend it to everyone. This was my first wash n go and so far I love it.
This Head Spa service was excellent. The designer was VERY knowledgeable and took her time to see what type of service would suit my scalp the best. It was very enjoyable and I left feeling refreshed. I will be back!
This is such a luxurious salon. Spacious, modern decor, very clean. The services provided are not rushed. A lot of personal attention and care is taken with your hair. I highly recommend Beauty for Ashes Salon.
Alyssa is attentive and well experienced! She knows exactly how to take care and style hair! I always leave as a happy client because she is committed and devoted to her craft.
I really appreciated everything starting from the ease of making the appointment because of the technology but also how clear the website is. The experience at the salon was great! I didnt feel rushed. I felt listened to. I liked the honesty about the products and using what with new info about oils & butters.I havent been able to recreate the style yet but I love the cut and feel confident many styles will look good simply because of the quality of the cut/shape. I will be a regular for sure...20 years of DIY converted to routine pampering because of excellence! Thank you Andrea!
Highly recommended! I love my experience as a new client. The hair stylist (owner )took great care of my hair . The other staffs were very nice and they provided great service. I learned so much . The beauty salon is also so clean and the vibe is very soothing. Can’t wait to go back 😊
There’s no one I trust more than Andrea! With all her years of experience, she is a true artist when it comes to curly hair. She has the ability to ultimately transform your hair, to restore it to its natural bounce and pattern! In all my years of struggling with my thick curly hair, torturing it with straightening and harmful dyes, she brought it back to life!
Enjoyed the few minutes I spent at the salon. Didn’t have to wait to get my hair fixed. Very professional and accommodating.
I was very impressed with Andreas knowledge, honesty, and personality! My hair was a wreck and now its FABULOUS! I very much look forward to my next appointment
Great experience, Staff is knowledgeable and professional. There are no secrets, staff is willing to share any and all information with you to make sure you are able to achieve the same look at home, and to keep your hair looking and feeling healthy. My family and I will continue to be clients!
I cant tell you how happy I am with my hair. I had the express hydrate and define. Ive been trying to achieve a wash and go on my own with some success but my 4c curls look awesome! I appreciated the patience to detangle my mane and the helpful advice. I will be back for another express hydrate and define in August! Thank you.
I love, love, love my new curly cut! Thank you Tyesha! Customer service is always great!! The entire staff has been very supportive during my natural hair journey.
My salon experience was EASILY the best one I have ever had. Its a beautiful salon, everyone is so friendly, knowledgeable and professional. Alyssa was so sweet and answered every single question I had (I had a lot) but also walked me through the current state of my hair, what products I should be using and gave me a mirror so I could see what she was doing/how she was applying product while we were at the bowl. I left there with so much knowledge and cant wait to apply it at home. I came all the way from DC for this experience and Beauty for Ashes dont owe me nothingggg. I will be back next month for some color. It feels sooo good to finally have found a salon I can trust and call my own.
Great experience! Chyna was my stylist and I picked her for a reason. Really appreciate the care & attention she gave my hair. Not only did I received a lot of compliments @ work today I referred a few people to the salon. I will definitely return....
My hair was a disaster when I started coming there about 3 months ago. It was badly damaged but in terms of transformation, it has gone from 0 to 180 thanks to those super talented ladies. Their products are one of the best. All I can say to them is “thank you”. I’ll see you in a few weeks
Andrea was a true professional! My daughter left loving her hair. Definitely recommend this place to anyone. Thank you!!
Ive been going to Andrea for the last 15 years. She takes pride in her work & throughly enjoys what she does. This is always evident when she does your hair. Ive always left her shop looking & feeling better than when I walked in.Yesterday, she did a hydrate & define for me. She educated me on what products to stay away from & how to do it for myself at home. Im bringing both of my daughters to her in 2 weeks.Its so enjoyable to see her grow and become the best in her field. Im so happy for her & all shes accomplished.
I saw Alyssa on Saturday and got a curly haircut with her ! I cant say enough about her and how professional she was. I went daring and cut my hair short and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT, I COULDNT BE HAPPIER ! I will def. be following up and getting my hair cut every 4 months to keep it healthy ! If your in the Rockland/Westchester/Northern NJ and Need a curly cut this is your place to go !!
Kudos to Andrea and her staff who provide an awesome experience, warm, inviting, real but professional. Andrea knowledge of hair and maintenance was phenomenal. I so appreciate her service. Thank you for a great exprexperi.. Well worth the cost♥️♥️
Andrea is an excellent stylist! She not only makes your hair look fantastic, she educates you on how to take care of your hair yourself. The experience at the salon is excellent, thorough and fast.
Andrea.....First, my fault, I bring the wrong hair.Second, you create a high five style that I and others compliment. The drive from Westchester County is worth it for your chic styles, helpful hair growth/maintenance advice, on time appointments and professionalism. You stay true to your hair care mission and vision for your customers.
I am very pleased with all services given. My hair looks and feels healthy. My trim was much better than I expected. Not only did Tyesha refrain from going scissor happy, but she educated me while trimming. The ambiance is peaceful, unlike most salons that are too loud. Im so satisfied, I booked my next appointment already. Thank you Tylesha/Beauty for Ashes!
Had such a great experience at this salon (which was referred to me from one of their clients who also had a good experience)! The atmosphere was relaxing and they look at your hair as a whole. Already have my next appointment scheduled. :)
My hair stylest was very knowledgeable and ready to answer any questions I had. By far the best experience Ive had in a hair salon ever! I will definitely be visiting Beauty for Ashes again.
As usual walked out feeling satisfied and pleased with my hair and style. Andrea so honest with her feedback about hair and styles. Thank u for making sure I do not walk out looking like a hot mess because I want a style that is not appropriate.AndreaMedication and my own neglect caused the damage to my hair. I walked in and you listened to my hair woes. First, thank you for that. Second, you offered reassurance that we can again get my hair healthy. Thanks for the here and now hair therapy
Thank you for using your expertise to show attentive care to my hair so it can stay healthy, as well as look its best. Love this salon!
My experience at Andrea’s salon exceeded my expectations. Being my 1st visit I had a hair audit and attended boot camp. I learned so much about my hair a now I have a routine to follow. I’m someone who does not do her own hair I walked out of Beauty for Ashes with a great do and now a process for me. I did my hair yesterday using my newly gained knowledge, tips and products all I can say is WOW . I drove 99 miles to this salon it was worth every mile and dollar (prices are very fair BTW) I can’t wait to see where my new hair journey and Beauty for Ashes takes me. Thank you Andrea, Alyssa, and Patrick for the warm welcome. See y’all soon.
It is such a positive experience at Beauty for Ashes. I learn so much and I got a beautiful compliment on the street after leaving the salon!
My first time at this salon was phenomenal. I was kindly greeted and welcomed with great care. I was given a tour of the salon and had to fill out a questionnaire regarding myself and my hair. This was important to me since it felt that the employees were not just doing a job but actually cared about their clienteles. They gave me great advice on how to care for my hair and catered to my needs. Im usually terrified of trims but for the first time in a salon, I felt confident and trusted them to trim my hair. My hair came out looking fabulous. You dont many professionals hair salon who catered to natural hair in Rockland. This was a great one. I definitely would come back.
The staff is very knowledgeable and professional.My hair and my scalp have become very healthy and manageable.I would highly reccommed this Salon to anyone.
She provided a great service, she helped me to figure out how to better care for my and what products is best to use. She was really nice and gentle.
ANDREA is just a wizard with scissors. She really took her time for my Devacut and my husband said it looked gorgeous (and that’s with NO styling—which I opted for to save $). She’s a dear person, too.
Andrea is the greatest. The service at Beauty For Ashes continues to be top notch.
Great visit as usual. My hair was done well and enjoyed the conversation. Thanks again for everything ladies, see you next year.
I absolutely love Tyesha and the Beauty for Ashes salon. Every time I go to the salon its always a new and fabulous experience. Everyone is supper friendly and prompt. Theres never a long wait. The minute you walk in to the salon you are greeted and asked if theres anything they can get you. The stylists are all wonderful they are patient and understanding, they take the time to explain everything to you and answer any questions that a client may have. So happy I found this salon and I wouldnt go anywhere else. Très magnifique 🤩🤩
Always a good visit. These ladies know what they’re doing and give the best advice for your hair
Clean professional environment. Love the educational aspect of the service.
They are a 6 out of 10 on a good day, it really depends on whos working. Not the best stylist, but Andrea is a great beautician that can truly get your hair healthy, and keep it healthy. She does GREAT weaves with the best quality hair.
She was very informative and taught me so much about my hair and what I needed to do to maintain healthy moisturized hair.
Great, friendly staff, and they REALLY know what they are doing with curls! Even though it took 8 years in Rockland to find this salon, it was worth the wait!
As a mom to biracial children I always struggled with how and what to do with their hair. The older they got the harder it was for me. Today, you transformed my 15 year old daughters all natural afro, into an all natural defined curls afro. Her smile tells the whole story. You made me cry when I saw each defined curl, when her beauty glowed from her smile; and you gave her tools on how to achieve this daily . Thank you, for not only giving her hair a natura beauty, but for explaining how and what to do to keep the defined curls.
Beauty for Ashes is a great hair salon, as a Matter of fact, it is the best hair salon I’ve experienced. Very clean atmosphere and excellent customer service. Tyesha, my hair stylist really took the time and patience to explain each procedure before she did it and gave me a written analysis of my hair and in addition she gave me tips for home hair care. Tyesha has a customer for life. Gratitude to Tyesha and the staff members of Beauty for Ashes
I had an excellent experience. I was under the care of a knowledgeable and helpful expert!
Beautiful atmosphere and extremely informed yet down to earth stylists who pay keen attention to quality products, styling and your comfortability. This salon is truly a lux experience for curly, coily, and kinky hair!
Always a pleasure coming to BFA & getting my hair done :-)
As usual it was an amazing experience and my hair looks amazing
I love this hair salon so much, I have been going here for years and all the hair stylist there are super nice and are well educated. I highly recommend going.
Friendly staff and great service! :)
Always great service.
Andrea knows hair.
I want something good
