Avec Amour
Career Development Program
$75 - $100 per hour
Every great stylist starts somewhere. Avec Amour is our career development program, where newer stylists build their skills on real clients with a master stylist guiding each step. You get a lovely result at an approachable rate, and you help launch a career.
How it works.
Real Clients. Real time education.
A master stylist works alongside.
Every Avec Amour appointment happens with a master stylist in the room, guiding technique and checking the work as it happens.
Learning happens during your service.
Our stylists are newer to the industry, so they work with care and talk through each step. That means appointments take longer than they would with a master stylist. Plan your time with that in mind.
Services open up as stylists are ready.
Each stylist is evaluated and coached on a regular schedule. The menu grows as they do, so not every stylist offers every color or cutting service yet.
You pay by the hour, at a gentler rate.
Avec Amour appointments are $75 to $100 per hour, and like the rest of our salon, gratuity-free. The quiz below estimates how many hours your service needs.

Questions about Avec Amour
Why did we develop Avec Amour, and who are the stylists?
Avec Amour is our in-salon career development program. We built it because newer stylists deserve a real path into the industry: hands-on time with real clients while an experienced master stylist teaches alongside them.
Our Avec Amour stylists are newer to the industry and growing their skills in our salon. It also gives clients a more accessible way to get great hair.
Why is the rate lower?
Our stylists are still learning, and a master stylist is working alongside them to teach in real time. Avec Amour appointments are $75 to $100 per hour, compared to $185 to $225 per hour with our other stylists.
Like everything at Amour, it's gratuity-free, so tax is the only thing added to your price.
What can I expect during my visit?
A relaxed, unhurried pace. Because education happens during your service, appointments take longer than they would with our other stylists, so plan your time accordingly.
A master stylist is in the room guiding technique and checking the work, so you may hear them talking through steps. Our quiz will point you to the right amount of time to book.
Why isn't an Avec Amour stylist available on other days?
A master stylist works alongside our Avec Amour stylists at every appointment, so their schedule follows the days we can teach. As the program grows, we'll add more availability.
Can Avec Amour stylists perform any service?
Not yet. Services open up as each stylist is ready, so the menu is smaller than our other stylists'. Right now that includes highlighting services.
Text or email us to find out what's available and when more services will open.
What if there isn't an Avec Amour stylist available for the service I'd like?
Text us at 929-828-8255 or email bonjour@amoursalonnyc.com. We'll tell you if or when it's available with an Avec Amour stylist.
If you'd rather not wait, you can book that service online with any of our other stylists.
