Catalia was introduced to me by a friend who speaks highly of Avi and team for their skills and professionalism. Indeed I needed a hairstyle for a Gala and met Anna who after getting to know more about my style and what I want for my hair, came up with a fantastic updo which was elegant and stole the show. Her attention to detail was beyond … My following visit was for a facial and I was introduced to Madame Sofia. She is very attentive and really loves what she does! She is a seasoned esthetician who takes time to explain what is the best treatment for her client. I had a facial with collagen and oxygen therapy and my skin really felt the freshness and hydration. Avi, Rosy, Anna, Sofia have been amazing to me and what I appreciate so far is that they don’t try to sell you anything you don’t need. Great atmosphere and great energy !!! Thank you all

Absolutely amazing. We signed up for a great discount through Groupon for a couples retreat that was a full 50 min massage and totally private 50 min hot soak included. Setting up an appointment was super easy and the massage was really the best my partner and I had. You enter and they give you your own robes, towels and slides to make your way around the spa comfortably. Being guided to the private jacuzzi with glasses of wine and chocolate was the extra simple and indulgent touch that made the experience more romantic. Incredible experience and can’t wait to come back.

I booked for a balayage with my Licensed to Glow membership and couldn’t be happier with the results. I came in with a longer pixie that had been getting a double process and wanted to add some dimensions for a more natural look. Ghizlane knew exactly what I wanted, despite the english/italian language barrier and I could not be more impressed with how well she delivered.

I had a full leg and underarm wax done by Julieta! This is my second time getting waxed by her and she was kind and paid incredible attention to detail. She is certainly going to be my go to waxer and I’m excited to see her again soon! Also, not only is Julieta great, but so are all the people at Catalina. They are all so attentive and want to make sure your experience is as luxurious as possible. Everyone is consistently kind and welcoming and I appreciate everyone greatly! Definitely go to Catalina for all your beauty services! They will all take great care of you :) ♥️

As the daughter of a former stylist, saying I’m picky about my hair is an understatement! Avi has been cutting, coloring, and treating my hair for over 15 years, and I genuinely wouldn’t trust anyone else. I’ve tried every top salon in NYC—Fekkai, Barrett, Hershberger, you name it—and none compare to Avi’s work. He takes the time to truly listen to what you want, explains why something may or may not work, offers thoughtful alternatives, and if he can’t deliver a certain result, he’ll tell you upfront—unlike many salons that are happy to take your money regardless. I also have all my facial treatments done at Catalia by Marie, who is nothing short of incredible. Not only does she do all my injectables but dissolved some of my filler that had started to migrate and helped me create a treatment plan to correct that area with better, more appropriate solutions. My skin has never looked better! The entire staff at Catalia is warm, welcoming, and extremely knowledgeable. They also have one of the best inventories of hair-care products in the city. In short, Avi is the goose that laid the golden egg, and I would follow him anywhere!
