Our Story

Our passion and purpose is bringing trendsetting modern hair to New York City. Our founders, originally from the West Coast, were inspired to elevate the hair salon experience when they relocated to NYC.

Recognizing a void in contemporary salon offerings, they took the initiative to establish Essence, aiming to provide the city's residents with exceptional, modern hair care.

With extensive training and apprenticeships in Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, Chicago, and even New York City, our founders brought together a unique blend of urban sophistication and West Coast flair.
