How Heena’s Threading Salon Kips Bay Compares to York Salon in New York

Across New York, Heena’s Threading Salon Kips Bay and York Salon are the two names that keep coming up. The measurable difference is this: 4.7 stars from 207 Google reviews against 4.7 from 47, checked in October 2026.

What you are really asking

Most people comparing two New York beauty salons are not asking which is better in the abstract. They are asking something narrower: will this appointment be worth the money and the hour, and will I know the price before I am in the chair?

On the first half, 207 reviews is the larger sample, so Heena’s Threading Salon Kips Bay's 4.7 is the more settled number. A handful of new reviews moves a 47-review average; it barely moves a 207-review one. On the second half, only one of them answers in public. A published price is a commitment. An unpublished one is not necessarily higher, but it is an unknown, and on a first visit an unknown is a cost of its own.

What actually separates them

The two ratings are level at 4.7. What differs is the evidence behind them: 207 reviews against 47. The second difference is how much each is willing to put in public. Heena’s Threading Salon Kips Bay publishes 67 services with a price on every one. York Salon publishes no menu we could find, which is less a criticism than a fact about what you can know before you walk in.

The comparison

"Not stated" below means exactly that: the claim is not made anywhere a customer could hold them to it. It is not an accusation, and it may simply mean the information lives on a wall inside the business.

Where York Salon still shines

47 reviews is a real customer base, not a thin listing, and a beauty salon does not reach that number without regulars who keep coming back. A 4.7 average also hides a distribution: plenty of those reviews are five stars. If you already have someone there who knows your preferences, nothing above is a reason to switch. Nothing here is a criticism of the business.

Where they overlap

Both are beauty salons serving New York, both appear in Google's local results for the category, and both have enough reviews behind them that neither rating is guesswork. Either will do the core service you are booking. If you live between the two, distance is not the deciding factor.

Where this comparison stops

Ratings tell you how visits have gone on average. They do not tell you whether a particular specialist suits your hair, skin or schedule, and for anything technical a consultation settles more than a star rating ever will.

Which to book

If review volume is what reassures you, Heena’s Threading Salon Kips Bay has the larger base at 207. If you already have a trusted regular at York Salon, stay. If you are choosing cold and price matters, only one of them will tell you the price before you arrive.
