I've been going to Irina since 2000 for haircuts and hi and low-lights. She does an incredible job. Since moving from Kew Gardens to Manhattan, I've made the trek every 3-4 months. I keep trying to find someone in Manhattan who can replicate Irina's work but, to no avail. Alas, I will continue to travel over an hour for Irina's fine work. The hi-lights really last and my hair has remained healthy. It looks natural and the prices are much more affordable than in Manhattan. Now that I'm a mother, I'm introducing my 3 yr old daughter to Irina for haircuts.
Pros: Looks natural, affordable
Cons: Not in Manhattan, have to go to Queens
