I built Bodega Beauty NY for the client who wants real answers before another expensive appointment. We start with what your hair can handle, what you want to maintain and how you actually live.

Start before you sit
If you are considering extensions, color, smoothing or restoration but need clarity before coming in, start with a private FaceTime or video consultation. We will talk through your current hair, your goal, your budget and the upkeep—without rushing through an appointment.
Reserve a virtual consultation ↗Come with your hair visible and share inspiration photos when you have them.
We’ll discuss what your hair can support, realistic maintenance and estimated investment.
You’ll leave knowing which in-person service or consultation makes sense—before spending more.
The service menu
The menu is organized by what you want to do: consult, smooth, extend, maintain, color or restore. If you are unsure, book the free 10-minute check-in and I’ll point you in the right direction.
Meet with Kim by video to discuss your hair history, goals, inspiration, budget and maintenance before choosing your next service. Your consultation fee goes toward your service.
We’ll talk through your goal, your natural hair, the upkeep and the real cost before you commit.
Bring your questions. We’ll look at your scalp, shedding, breakage, routine and what has been done before.
We’ll decide whether keratin, Brazilian Blowout, Hair Botox—or none of them—is right for your hair.
Ten minutes with me so you do not have to guess your way through the menu.

Selected work
Real clients. Thoughtful placement. Finishes designed to look as good in real life as they do in the chair.






Meet your stylist
“I’m not here to sell you the longest appointment. I’m here to help you make the right decision for your hair.”
I’m Kim: a licensed cosmetologist, educator and the founder of Bodega Beauty NY. After more than two decades in beauty, leadership and training, I know the technical work matters—but so does telling the truth, listening closely and making sure you understand the plan.
I was raised in Queens and built my home in Houston. Bodega Beauty NY brings those two parts of me together: direct, warm, culturally aware and serious about healthy hair.
