Jane has been cutting my hair for years and she rocks! She and the staff is Karma are professional, talented, and incredibly kind! And now they are going above and beyond with their COVID safety precautions. Everything is proceeded and spaced out well, with all surfaces being fully cleaned before and after each guest. I felt very comfortable during my most recent visit.

I saw Brook yesterday after spending months being totally bored with my hair. I loved how she took the time to figure out what I would realistically want to deal with in a cut and style. She was so knowledgeable about the products the Salon carries, which smell amazing by the way! In the end I got an awesome cut and some tips on styling, and I'm incredibly happy that I went here. Best haircut I've gotten in a while!

I've been to Karma a number of times, and I'm honestly worried about eventually moving, because I won't be able to go there anymore. Jane cuts and colors my hair and does an insanely good job. My hair is tough to work with and she nails it every time. I originally came to her because I made the cardinal sin of attempting to color my own hair in a pinch.

You know the deal. it ended up tri-colored (and not in a nice, fun highlight kind of way. more like horizontal stripes across my head. not a good look). She put in some solid time and I ended up with an absurdly good looking balayage that I couldn't have even imagined would have been the outcome. She's been my go-to ever since and she's a rock star. Highly recommend - if you want to see their work, check out their instagram: karma_salon_nh

I went to this salon as it seemed to be a great place with good reviews. Honestly the worst waste of my money. I was promised, by Jane, that my hair would look exactly how I wanted, and left with half my hair one color and the other half another. The haircut was uneven and all different lengths, a five year old could have done better. I went back to speak with the owner, Cheryl, and was met with an unprofessional attitude and yelling while at the same time blaming the poor work of her staff on my hair.

The owner then proceeded to chase me out of the salon while trying to take pictures of me. I wouldn't waste your time, there are plenty of far better salons in the New Haven area who are actually professional and know what they're doing.

I'm new to New Haven, and desperately needed a haircut after almost 2 years without a professional one. I booked an appointment at Karma and was very satisfied with my experience. Katy was friendly and gave me exactly what I asked for. My hair looks and feels great and the price point was very reasonable. I'll be back!

Karma is great salon, and I have been seeing Cheryl for over six years. I love the salon and my cut and color from Cheryl so much that since moving to Hartford, I still drive down to get my hair done there. I feel so relaxed there like going to a spa. I have been going there many years, and I was nervous about going to get my hair done during COVID, but Cheryl explained to me all of the protections they are taking to keep us all safe while in her salon.

Some of the protections include not having anyone inside the salon until their chair is ready for them, no people waiting in the waiting area. The number of stylists and customers is purposefully reduced to limit interaction. During my last appointment it was only me, Cheryl, and one other stylist in the space while I was there. There are plexiglass walls installed between the chairs and everyone is masked in the space.

I have been to the salon three times in the past seven months and so far I have had a good experience and always felt safe coming in. Because this is one of the few places I go during COVID, I look forward to going in, and it still feels like going to a spa.

I went to Karma salon to fix my COVID haircut ( I had cut my own hair in a straight bob fashion, so you can imagine how well that went). Brooke, my stylist, was one of the friendliest and most knowledgeable stylists I have ever worked with. She was able to diagnose the issues with my hair (it is thick and coarse in texture) and was able to cut it so that it would not look bushy at the ends and would instead look sleek and well-shaped.

In addition, she was so effortless, graceful, and was full of recommendations for places to see in CT. I left with a haircut and a new friend! The haircut was also extremely reasonably priced for the quality of the cut and the expensive products that were used in my hair (including a soothing tea tree shampoo and conditioner and lots of heat protecting products).

Definitely check this place out! PS: They are really cautious with COVID stuff. Everyone is wearing masks and seats are separated by plexiglass. I was told that they spray-clean the place with disinfectant every week and wipe down the seats after every customer.

Cheryl has been cutting my hair and giving me highlights for years, and she never fails to do a terrific job. I was a bit nervous about getting my hair cut during a pandemic, but the whole experience was reassuring. Cheryl (and the rest of the staff) took every precaution to keep everyone safe, and she gave me an adorable bob at the same time. Highly recommend!

I have been going to Cheryl for 10+ years for hair cuts and many different colors. She is an absolute professional. Seeing how Karma has handled the pandemic just underscores this. I've been back 3 times since March. Karma feels clean, distanced, careful, and safe. Not to mention the consistently amazing cuts and colors. In this dumpster fire of a year, getting some hair self-care at Karma has been a welcome respite.

All of the staff is personable, stylish, and incredibly talented. The old school barber chairs are incredibly comfortable and you can be confident that whoever your stylist is, that they will get your hair to be exactly what you envisioned. Pamper your head here!
