Mount Vernon has one of the strongest Black and Caribbean communities in Westchester, so a search for a hair salon in Mount Vernon, NY is rarely about finding a chair. There are plenty. It is about finding someone who will not fight your texture. Our salon in Tarrytown, about twenty-five minutes northwest, is built around exactly that work: cornrows, stitch braids, locs, relaxer and transition management, and silk pressing that leaves the curl pattern intact when it reverts. We would rather you left with your edges where they started.
The city is dense, which is why parking near a salon in Fleetwood or down on the south side becomes its own small ordeal. Tarrytown has the opposite problem, being a village with municipal lots and metered street spaces that are usually open, especially in the evening. Clients come to us from both sides of Mount Vernon, from the Bronxville and Pelham edges as well as the neighbourhoods closer to the Bronx line. Tell us where you are starting from and we will tell you which route runs best at your hour.
Mount Vernon runs on shift work, and shift work does not fit nine to five salon hours. Being open 24 hours by reservation means a stylist can be booked for six in the morning or ten at night, so a full head of braids does not have to cost you a day off work. A good share of the 141 Google reviews behind our 5.0 rating come from people who needed exactly that kind of flexibility. Call (845) 219-2592 and we will quote your length and style over the phone.

Getting to our hair salon from Mount Vernon NY
How long does it take to get to you from Mount Vernon?
About twenty-five minutes northwest, depending on whether you start from Fleetwood, the south side or the Pelham edge. Call us with your starting point and we will tell you the easiest route for that time of day.
Is parking easier in Tarrytown than in Mount Vernon?
Considerably. There are municipal lots behind Cortlandt Street and metered street spaces, and outside a summer weekend you will rarely circle for long. Evenings are the easiest of all.
Do you work with relaxed and transitioning hair?
Yes. Managing a grow-out, spacing relaxers safely and choosing protective styles that do not stress the line of demarcation is a large part of what we do.
Can I book around a shift?
Yes. We are open 24 hours by reservation, so early morning and late night appointments can be arranged in advance around whatever your rota looks like.
Do you braid children's hair?
We do. Tell us the child's age and hair length when you call so we can allow a sensible amount of time and keep the tension gentle.
