"Robert Stuart is a Tonsorial Toscanini... seemingly incapable of turning out a bad hair cut."
Steve Fox, Good Morning America
"Ten years ago I stood outside the Robert Stuart Salon thinking, Should I or shouldn't I? I lived in the neighborhood. I'd read Susan Orlean's piece in the New Yorker. I decided, “Why not give it a try? What was the worst that could happen?” I'd already had my share of bad haircuts. It never crossed my mind that I was about to meet the best haircutter of my life. But that's what Robert is -- the best! I've recommended him to everyone I know, including my husband and my friends. And it's not just the great haircut (although that should be enough) -- it's the ambiance of this small, friendly salon. The no-nonsense prices. It's making an appointment for a haircut and knowing you'll be seen on time and out (in my case) in half an hour. Bad hair days are (almost) a thing of the past! Thank you, Robert!"

"I've only been coming here for 15 years! Why? Because it's consistent and terrific. And it's a great hang. Simply the best."
John Pizzarelli, Musician
"I think of it as “Robert’s Place” a hip, local Cheers but with the qualities of a classic New York literary, as well as literal, salon. When I arrive I am frizzled, frazzled and out of steam. When I leave, I am a chic, coiffed New York professional woman, equally prepared for the classroom and the opera. No one cuts hair like Robert, and his staff reflect his unique talents and sensibility. As an oral historian at Columbia University, I have heard it all, but I always hear something new at “Robert’s Place”—our Post Modern Cheers."

"The only place in town that you leave feeling as good as you look! It's a salon in the old sense of the word, a mixing of ideas, thoughts and feelings!"

"Robert takes my hair more seriously than I do."
David Lane, playwright
"Robert Stuart is the Dalai Lama of hair. Robert Stuart is Einstein, only his hair is better."
David Lane, playwright
"I can honestly say that the Robert Stuart Salon combines the best of New York Style: a warm welcome, sophisticated style and excellent service. Robert is amazing in making curly hair look stylish and the colorists, Theo and the others are deft and very capable with subtle color. It's my favorite salon!"
