I have a new bounce in my step, and that’s because there’s a new bounce to my hair!
The boutique hair salon Fox & Jane has long been known for its expertise in hair styling and color, especially hand-painted Balayage highlights. It recently opened its fifth salon on the Upper West Side, and invited me in for a service.
I hadn’t cut my hair in forever (I’m not even going to tell you when, it’s embarrassing!) so I made an appointment with Ritchie and began Pinterest-ing new styles.
The salon is gorgeous and cozy, and has a perfect “high-end but relaxed” vibe. Yes, that’s a thing! Considering HGTV celebrity designer Bobby Berk created the space, I expected nothing less!
Notice the hamburger on the wall? After staring at it throughout my haircut, you’ll never guess what I had for dinner!
Since I moved here, I have had the hardest time finding a hairstylist that I love. That is until Ritchie came into my life! He is absolutely amazing!
I showed him some pictures and we discussed what I wanted (more layers and bangs). We talked for a bit about my styling habits and what I was looking for in a haircut, and eliminated what wouldn’t work with my lifestyle (bangs!). I appreciated Ritchie’s honesty, and how he took the time to work with me to find a hairstyle that I would love, but also wouldn’t take forever in the morning (because nobody has time for that!).
The before picture:
Look at how long my hair was!
I returned from the shampoo chair to a fun surprise:
I know, I know, hair appointments can be so difficult sometimes!
Ta-da! The finished look:
I love the new layers, and how much movement it adds to my hair. I don’t even need a Beyoncé wind machine to look good!
Thank you so much Ritchie and Fox & Jane!
I highly recommend checking out Fox & Jane’s new UWS salon, and booking an appointment with Ritchie or any of its other fabulous stylists.
You can book online here, or call 646.478.7948. Fox & Jane’s other locations are listed here.
If you get Balayage highlights let me know, I’m planning on trying them next time I visit!

I love Fox & Jane! I’ve been to the East village locale and the Brooklyn one. I’ll have to check out the UWS! I got Bayalage highlights there this time last year- it was a fun fall change and they grew out well!
I’m glad you loved the highlights- I’m excited to try Balayage!
