___

Fox & Boy is hands down, the best salon in NYC. I've been salon-hopping for years, with various success (and horror) stories, and Julie tops the list. My cut and color are exactly what I was going for.
The salon itself is both chic and chill, and its in the perfect spot.
Highly recommended!

Nothing but praise for the marvelous Heather. She cut/colored my hair right before Labor Day and it still looks amazing. She was super patient while we talked over what I wanted to do with my hair, and she delivered awesome results.

The place is small and intimate, and the staff is super friendly. The prices definitely aren't cheap, but it's worth it for the results.

Julie is amazing. I've been salon hopping for the past few years, and none have warranted a return visit until Fox & Boy. She's the first stylist in a long time that I can say I feel completely safe in telling her to "do whatever you want". Even then she then walked me through a few ideas, to try to gauge what I might like best.... it kind of felt like going to Milk & Honey, except for my hair!

Review on Murphy's (New) Law

Another Kickass Haircut.

Today I had my second haircut with the adorable Julie Dickson of Fox & Boy salon in NoLIta.

I can't describe how awesome she is and how much I enjoy my haircuts with her! I absolutely need to schedule these more frequently just so we can hang out.

I showed up in a very typically CJM outfit: Black silk dress from Anthropologie, black herringbone patterned DKNY tights, shearling-lined leather Born boots, Lilly Pulitzer navy band jacket, Burberry scarf, London Fog black trench and a gold J.Crew birdcage necklace. Julie pronounced that I represent the perfect mix of uptown and downtown style (thanks, Julie!)

Daily Candy: Video Feature 7/29/09 How to cut your own bangs

Fringe Benefits

Easy Does It: How to Cut Your Own Bangs

Check out the video here

Your last DIY attempt resulted in a hole (okay, tunnel) from the bathroom to the bedroom and a local shortage on caulk.

But before you vow to never try anything by yourself again, check out our new series of how-to videos aptly entitled Easy Does It.

First up: Hairstylist Julie Dickson, owner of Fox & Boy salon in NYC, shows us how to trim our own bangs. We know, we know, taking scissors to your mane seems pretty cray cray, but we promise it’s easier than it seems, not to mention recession friendly.

As an added bonus, Dickson shows us the perfect way to tame our post-ocean coif in a looks-like-a-professional-did-it kind of way.

So prepare to be called a liar.

Fox & Boy Salon Opens

take a seat!

Play cowboys and Indians as a kid? (Or adult. Whatever.)

Then you might be game for Fox and Boy, a new salon with an active imagination. Julie Dickson (Beauty Parlour at ABC, Blackstones Salon) is the brain behind the quaint Mulberry Street spot (named after a scheme her children invented).

The space has the homey Nolita feeling we have come to love: moss green walls, tons of fresh flowers, framed artwork by Dickson’s daughter. Antique sheet music cabinets serve as stations where Dickson focuses on bone structure, eye color, and complexion before offering up her legendary cuts and color.

As you leave, check out the range of ecofriendly Davines products.

They’ll keep your new style looking foxy (oh, boy).

New York Magazine Critics Pick Feature

After earning her chops at a handful of well-regarded salons—Dop Dop, Minardi, Beauty Parlour, and Blackstones—hairstylist Julie Dickson took her accrued clientele and opened this pretty, personalized spot in April 2009 (the name references a game of pretend played by her young daughter and son).

The salon combines the cool factor of her former downtown posts with an air of uptown polish: The four stations face antique mirrors, and dated music cabinets bear styling tools and vases of fresh flowers. Globe pendant lights hang above ornate French parlor chairs in the small waiting area, and the two shampoo sinks are shielded from the rest of the space by an elaborately tiled, curved wall.

Dickson uses Davines, Redken, and L'Oréal products, combining wet and dry cutting methods to observe the natural tendencies of the hair. She tailors her technique according to her diverse clientele, which includes students, stylishly rumpled men, and various downtown creative types. Though Dickson is adept at both classic and sharp, angled cuts, her particular talent lies in fine tresses, which she coaxes into full-bodied, textured styles.
