Lemon Tree

I almost don’t want to give her name out because it’s hard enough to get an appointment for a $ 12 cut from this amazing hairstylist.
Okay, I will share! Kelly, the owner is superb. Show her a picture of what you want and it’s done.
She keeps her staff trained and does some amazing charity work at the store as well.
My entire family goes to her establishment.
Dang! The secrets out!

Lemon Tree is the best beauty salon chain in the New York area when you are considering price, value, and end results. I’ve gone to a dozen Lemon Trees all over Long Island for years, depending on where I am at the time and what coupon they are advertising at the time. The staff in Lake Ronkonkoma in particular are knowledgeable and pleasant. I get my roots dyed and they come up with the correct formula. I’ve recommended the Williston Park branch to several people who now go there regularly at my suggestion. It may not be a fancy place, but I would take an inexpensive visit to a Lemon Tree over any fancy schmancy over priced snobby salon any day because the end results are what I want. And why spend $ 60 getting roots dyed when it grows out every 5 weeks when you can spend half that for Paul Mitchell products and walk in unannounced versus needing an appointment a year in advance.

I get my medium length hair cut here once every 3 or 4 months. I have been coming here for a few years for the following reasons:
1) the price. I use a coupon most of the time and get a wash, cut and blow dry for twelve to fifteen bucks before tip. Even if there is no coupon running, they sometimes give me the same price they see in the computer anyway. Can’t beat that!
2) the girl who gave me my first haircut is still there and has a good following.
3) convenience. I never wait more than 10 minutes (with an appointment) and am out of there before the hour is up.
I tend to go during the week in the middle of the day so the customers are mostly elderly women who show up once a week to get their short do’s tended to. I don’t mind, I actually enjoy their conversation in the chair or while I wait.
The only issue I have is sometimes, the gals who work there are very busy gossiping amongst themselves. Normally I wouldn’t care, but when my gal is gossiping with the scissor in her hand next to my head, well, let’s just say, when I get home and check it out in the mirror, I have to finish the job myself because it’s crooked or she missed a spot. No biggie, it’s not like I’m getting stabbed in the neck… what do ya want for 12 bucks!!!

You always see those lemon tree commercials about how good their cuts are and how you shouldn’t pay salon prices for the same cut. This lemon tree is particularly good. The same faces have been there for years and they know what they are doing. You can’t beat the prices, the people are really nice, and you can just walk in and get cut. I would recommend calling before dropping in to spruce yourself up because they do get busy and the wait might be a while.
