Secrets of Vartali's success for almost 30 years

Vartali has always been one of the salons that has thrived on service. For all the savvy clients in NYC who visit all the trendy salons the one remark that is always on their lips when visiting Vartali is how comfortable they feel while getting top of the line styles and color. Vartan, the owner, prides himself for discovering the best talents in haircut, color and make-up but he also knows without his competent desk and management his services might not be the same. The team members take pride in their work and make every effort to make your visit to Vartali an experience you'll remember. Which is why none of these girls have the title of receptionist because at Vartali, unlike other salons, the way we deliver personal service is by having management be the same people, who take your appointment, check you in and out, and make sure your time at Vartali is running smoothly. So please don't ask who is the receptionist at Vartali. We are here to serve you to make sure you get the best out of Vartali services. After all, we are so proud of the talented people we work for we enjoy matching clients to stylists/colorists. So give us a call and give us a chance to make your next salon visit a memorable one.

Vartali's top 10 tips for healthy hair

Healthier, Shinier Hair May Be As Close As Your Next Meal...

Top 10 Foods for Healthy Hair
1 Salmon
2 Dark Green Vegetables
3 Beans
4 Nuts
5 Poultry
6 Eggs
7 Whole Grains
8 Oysters
9 Low-Fat Dairy Products
10 Carrots


The Foods you eat can directly effect the condition of your hair. According to Vartan, master stylist and owner of Vartali Salon in New York City, eating a well-rounded diet and drinking at least eight glasses of water a day can dramatically improve the health of your hair.

One of the most common questions asked in any salon is how to make hair shinier. "When clients complain that their hair is dull and lifeless, I always ask them what they eat. Often they tell me they are following some fad diet or skipping meals. If you do not get enough protein, vitamins and water your hair and skin are the first places to show the deficiency," said Vartan.

Even hair that is dull from over-processing and excessive blow drying can be helped nutritionally. "If you are getting the proper nutrition, hair will be stronger and better able to withstand styling demands in the first place," he added.

In addition to proper nutrition, there are several steps that consumers can take to improve the condition of their hair. The following are Vartali's Top Ten Tips For Healthier Hair:

1. Drink eight or more full glasses of water per day. Water rids the system of toxins and keeps your hair hydrated.
2. Eat a balanced diet. Avoid caffeine and alcohol.
3. Alternate shampoo every few days to prevent buildup.
4. Go to your salon for deep conditioning treatments.
5. If you must blow dry hair, use medium setting.
6. Rinse hair with an ounce of vinegar once each week to remove styling product residue.
7. Do not wash hair in very hot water.
8. Rinse hair with cool water after washing and conditioning to seal the cuticle and promote a smoother texture.
9. Less is more. Do not over use styling products which can dull hair.
10. Avoid styling products with high alcohol content.

Wedding Hair and Makeup Ideas from the Runways (brides.com)


Our favorite makeup and hairstyles from the Fall 2011 bridal market shows were pretty and, most importantly, wearable-like this Audrey Hepburn-inspired look at the Romona Keveza show. A demure, clean French twist with a deep side part had a retro, high society feel, while the makeup was pure pretty: a mild smoky eye was created by smudging a charcoal gray eye pencil near the lashline, and cheeks were given a natural, glowy look with soft pink blush view hairstyle gallery from bride.com

Top hairstylists and makeup artists reveal their favorite trends of the season

Megan FoxPumped-Up Lashes
Megan Fox knows how to enhance her bombshell status: "There's no better way to amp up your look than with long, lush lashes. I'm a huge fan of mascara-I love that women can wear oodles of it and it never reads as makeup," says Bret Freedman, who uses CoverGirl LashBlast in Very Black on clients like Emily Blunt and Vanessa Hudgens.

Vartali For Men

VARTALI now offers a new service to male clientele who would like to reduce their gray without any fear or commitment!


It is ideal for men who are just starting to show some gray, actually, for all the guys with 50% or less gray hair. The service is discrete - it can be done at the basin as a part of a regular, before-the-cut "shampoo" and fast, in less than 10 minutes the gray hair is just blended (not completely covered) with natural-looking hues that compliment the original hair color.
Products used in this process are specially formulated to only tone down the grays. The result is translucent, dimensional color that will slowly fade away without leaving a line of demarcation. By the next haircut appointment, the grays will be ready for the next touch up.
This is the easiest, fastest, greatest way to feel and look better and younger in just 10 minutes or less!!!


NEW! VARTALI EXCLUSIVE OFFER

Special introductory price: $50

Customer Reviews

tshirtfrescagirl :
I love Vartali! I've been to Vartali multiple times and i've loved every haircut, highlight, hair styling and makeup application that i've received. On my last visit, my hair wash was fantastic and it started off the excellent day i had at Vartali. They brought be a delicious iced coffee and my haircut was exactly what i wanted. Everyone should go to Vartali for whatever beauty needs they have.

Amanda S.,Brooklyn, NY:
Marco is my hero. He fixed my color after a bad experience elsewhere... He could have stuck it to me and charged for corrective color, but since he basically did highlights he just charged for that. My color looks great, totally natural. And I was in and out super quickly. I will definitely be back.

david10240 :
we found Vartali to be reasonable, especially taking into consideration the amazing experience we had. FIVE stars to this 57th street staple in the neighborhood. You cannot go wrong here, and you will be thrilled with your results!!!

marenm :

mariasingh :
Anything I get done here to my hair or when I get my makeup done it is gorgeous. I always come out feeling beautiful and like a new person. Its an amazing place, where they only hire professionals and friendly people. They know how to hire people that know their stuff!! I would highly recommend checking this place out.

mreils :
I have a relatively simple hairstyle and it's hard to make it spectacular. I went to Piet at Vartali on a recommendation from a friend and had a fabulous experience. The people at the salon were all friendly and Piet is a doll - so much fun to talk to and a very good listener. Piet took his time with my hair, doing a number of touch-ups even after it was dried, and did a fantastic job. 3 weeks later I am still very pleased. He was kind and complimentary and didn't insist on putting lots of product in my hair so it was one of the first times I've stepped out of a salon and not wondered what my hair would look like on a normal (product-less) day. Great experience.
