“So how do you really rate a salon that is beyond a salon and instead feels like an escape from the hectic day-to-day craziness? Not to mention, an extremely talented, sweet, caring, creative stylist (Karina)?? This is absolutely the best place I have ever come to for getting my hair done. I went from frizzy, dried out, breaking off, damaged hair to beautiful, silky, rich colored, chic hair. The first night I met Karina I had asked her for a chemical relaxer…she said there is no way I am doing that on your hair–it is so bad for it. She immediately suggested this Karatine treatment that I had never heard of before…I was interested…but was terrified of the price (I was just out of college, so you know how that goes). Karina worked with me. She said “Let me show you how beautiful your hair can look. I will take care of you.” And she definitely did. I went back for the treatment…and was completely in awe after that. I have received so many compliments on my hair since going to Karina. Once I went there, I never went anywhere else…and never will. Karina treats each of her clients with the utmost respect, and is more than just your stylist…she is your friend. i have gotten my hair highlighted, lowlighted, cut, eye brows waxed, manicure and pedicures, you name it. Every time I am more amazed. I go in now and say “do whatever you want” and trust that it will be more than good. I recommend this to everyone…give it a try…you will never go back to your old salon or barber. My boyfriend is going in the next few weeks for the first time…says he is skeptical? Ha, I will put another update after he goes because I am that confident.
Try this salon…you will be amazed and more than satisfied with how your true beauty or handsomeness prevails”

“My girlfriend got her hair done here and it looked awesome. I don’t always notice things like that but it really looked great!!”

“Karina is a veery nice person she does really nice hair and makes it last four about a lot of days she is a flower I wish I can be like Karina”

“Karina is an extremely talented hairstylist. I am very picky and have tried hair salons in many big cities. She is the best I have ever met. I am her customer since 2 years: haircut, color, keratin treatment; my hair looks fabulous since I know her.”

“I discovered Karine a couple of years ago, and she has transformed my hair style. It’s longer, looser, more attractive, and younger-looking. At my age (70), I need that! I even went to her a couple of days after a horrible haircut, and she fixed the damage. Magic.”

“I went recently for my first color root to tip. I have medium length black hair and dyed it light brown.
Karina was extremely helpful in helping me choose a brown that was light enough to be noticeable yet dark enough that it still matched my skin tone. I was really worried about this because I’m filipino and have slightly darker skin. And scared since it was my first full hair dye.
I actually almost picked a color that was too light but after Karina explained everything to me and I saw the color I was so relieved that I listened to her! She was so patient and nice with all my questions. My mom liked my color so much – I think she’ll be going in soon! Thanks Karina!”

“I’ve been going to 5th Ave. studio for 4-5 years now. The people there are all sweet and stylish people. Every time I go, I chat with an employee there about their hair or shoes…they really make the effort to look great and I love how much love they put into their salon.
Most importantly I seriously love my hair every time I go….. Karina has been my stylist from day one and she does a phenomenal job. I really love just going in and chatting with her about what I want, what she suggests, ideas, etc. and it always turns out perfect.
LOVE THIS PLACE!!!”

“Karina, was an exceptional hair dresser. Her professionalism is something that can not be beat. Not only is she one of the best, if not the best hairstylist in Philadelphia but she is such an amazing person as well. She brings years of experience and wisdom to her salon and her craft is something else. I have been coming to Karina to style my hair along with my girlfriend for many many years. She has a client book filled with clients in Philadelphia yet she still makes time to come up to New York to style and cut our hair. She creates the ultimate VIP experience and she is really a blessing to anyone who encounters such Beauty, talent and brains. Karina at 5th Ave Hair Studio in Manayunk is a diamond in the rough. Thank you so much Karina (if your reading this) for everything you do for my girlfriend and I.”

“5th Ave hair Studio is a wonderful salon. It is right off Main street in Manayunk and one of Manayunk’s best kept secrets. When I first came to Karina my hair was frizzy and breaking. Karina fixed my hair with so it is now long and very healthy. She is amazing with hair color. Every experience I have had at 5th ave hair studio has been so positive.”

“5th ave hair salon is absolutely fabulous!! Karina is such a sweetheart and does such a great job with my hair. The environment is so chic and friendly, I love getting my hair done! I got a keratin treatment from her and it was so great. My old damaged hair is now soft and shiny again. I would definitely recommend heading to main street if youre looking to get a great style. Karina is updated on all the newest trends!”

“Borica from Glow now works at 5th Ave Hair Studio! Since I have been a client of Borica’s for the past 4 years at Glow, I was really sad to hear that he was changing salons. However, 5th Ave is the perfect hair salon in Manayunk. It’s a quaint little salon that is very welcoming and comfortable, not to mention how wonderful my hair color and cut turned out. I recommend 5th Ave Hair Studio to everyone! Go see Borica, a definite miracle worker! :-)”
