Yesterday I went to this salon recommended by my friend to get my hair colored and cut. The stylist first applied essential oils to my entire head to protect my scalp and nourish my hair. I had my hair dyed six months ago. The stylist carefully applied the dye twice. The color was even and I loved it! I have a lot of hair, but the stylist is also very careful to help me cut layer by layer, the hair is very layered, just the way I want. It was a great experience, the stylist was very professional and will be back again read more

1000/10 request Jay all day every day. I hadn't changed my hair in 10+ years because I just didn't know what to do with it. I went to Jay not expecting anything and ended up with an immaculate transformation it's like when you go to get your hair done and all your life nothing ever looks great and you just settle. This is the opposite Jay is a master at handling hair, he knows what looks good and how to give you the hair of your dreams. Been to at least 50-60 stylists over my life never really felt great about my hair after, but I just was amazed. Not to mention he is so friendly and such good vibes all around. I would gatekeep, but honestly he's such a gem and I'm sure there's someone like me out there where you you just don't know who to trust with your hair, trust me this whole experience is going to scream finally! read more

Had a great experience here. Called to book an appointment for the next day and was told if I had time today I could come in too. Same day appointments are heavenly. Will took the time to ask me what i wanted, really listened, asked again to confirm what i wanted, and executed flawlessly. Hair cut was $65. read more

I came in for a perm and a haircut to which when I saw Jays instagram I thought very highly of their work which was well represented in their social media. Jay was very nice and very hospitable throughout the process. So here comes the not so great part, I had an appointment that started 15-20 minutes late with no apology or acknowledgment. By the time we got started, it already felt rushed--especially towards the end, when other clients were being helped during what was still supposed to be my appointment time. After the perm, Jay barely even cut my hair, which is very important after perming to make it look nice and takes a lot of time. However, I was still charged 50$ for a haircut that I felt i didn't even receive. I went to another barber for help and they even said that the stylist did not cut my hair at all and just trimmed my sides. They even noted that Jay curled my one section of my hair the wrong way and how he pretty much just permed my hair and charged me for a haircut. Unfortunately I made the mistake of not speaking up immediately because it was clear there wasn't time left to address anything properly and other clientele were showing up and being attended too. I also made the mistake of assuming that Jay had already cut my hair and this was just the process but ultimately I left feeling really ugly about myself and my cut. If I spend 230$ (150$ for perm, 50$ for a haircut, and 30$ for tip) I could just hope that the stylist will have me leaving feeling really great about myself. I sat in my car post treatment feeling really bad about myself and insecure to the point that I had to go to another person to help fix my hair since I have a very important event in my life this weekend. When I followed up afterward, I was told no refund would be given since I didn't raise concerns during the appointment--despite the obvious scheduling issues, being rushed and the lack of hair that was actually cut. I asked for a refund for only the haircut portion of the treatment since I felt that my hair was not even cut at all and just trimmed at the ear. Jay barely touched my bangs or any hair at the top of my head and didn't even try to blend any of it. There was hair sticking from the sides of my head which just looked really messy and felt incomplete because there was so much volume left on my head. I did ask that a video of the appointment not be posted, and while they did agree to delete it, the overall lack of accountability was disappointing and saddening. From the picture, you can see the post perm and "cut", the reference photo to which the hair is lying flat, If you are looking for a perm, please ensure that it is with a stylist who respects your time and communicates proactively, I'd consider looking elsewhere. ---------- In reply to the comment, the photo of my hair after the barber cut it was NOT what I wanted at all, I had to cut my hair off because of how bad the perm was done. The curls were going in the complete wrong direction as you can see in the pictures and do not look anything like the reference photo. I grew out my hair for 6 months and wanted a wolfcut type perm, and because it was so severely off from the photo I had to make the hard decision to cut my hair off because it did not look great. I know stylists work very hard as I am an artist myself. Because I am an artist and designer I know my work must always be 100% and something that I am confident in. The lack of accountability from the stylist and the pushing of all the blame on the customer is quite astounding to say the least. You can make the judgement yourself from the reference photo to my hair and see who was clearly in the wrong. Again I could not believe the stylist would shift the blame to the customer once again after seeing the comparison to my hair and the reference. Please ensure you're choosing the right person for your hair who is going to give you 100% and not cut you short and expect you to say nothing. read more

My first time at this salon today and I had a wonderful experience. I got a big chop- waist length hair to a pixie cut and my hair stylist did such a great job. I love how it turned out and have gotten so many compliments already. Service included a very thorough and relaxing wash and cut and was $65. The salon itself is also beautiful and clean. I would definitely recommend A+ Salon to my friends and family! read more

I decided to pop in before going to my nail appointment just to ask about women's haircuts. Before I knew it, I was sat down and Kevin was cutting my hair. Kevin was amazing! He was meticulous with my haircut. He spent his time and I truly felt pampered. He layered and trimmed my hair. He went over every section again and again making sure to give me the cut I asked for. I was very pleasantly surprised (given this really was just me walking in to ask about haircuts) and now I am obsessed with my new haircut. I made sure to ask for Kevin's name because I highly recommend him. I will be back to A + Salon when it's time for another chop. Thank you, Kevin! I love my new hair! read more

I've been going here for a few times. My stylist used to be Kaison and he did a terrific job. Apparently he has moved and I was told I would be seeing Jenny. I was looking forward to it due to the good reviews on her. When I arrived I was immediately brought to a chair and a different stylist, that was not Jenny, came out and started my cut. I decided to give him a chance and regretted it. He started using a method I have never seen to cut my hair and I'm wondering if he is new to hair cutting? I showed him a reference picture of long layers and curtain bangs. What I got was not the picture and it was way shorter than I agreed to. The layer pieces are so short and choppy and it has been 2 weeks already. It was also hard to communicate due to language barriers. I regret leaving a tip. You have lost a customer A+ salon. I hate my hair so much and now I have to wait for it to grow out. read more

Just a simple blunt haircut while I grow out my hair. The experience is nice and quiet. The hairstylist is very nice too. :) Low key liked my bangs before the cut. Had a hybrid of curtain and see through (albeit messy because I cut it myself, but it gave me the variety to style my bangs). Requested to fix my bangs as see through with curtains through a second picture but got French (it still looks good) instead. I can't push them aside anymore since it gives an awkward short tuft of hair so I have no choice but to keep it French across my forehead. I'll still come back tho! read more

My Chinese is very limited but A+ salon is so convenient when I am waiting for my daughter to finish her extra curricular classes. So, I find myself in this salon today. I didn't have an appointment but Harry was available. With gestures and Google translate, I was able to explain that I needed a hair cut. He suggested the length, I agreed and I told him to style it however he thinks appropriate. I'm not picky about my hair other than I'm a minimalist. He spent about an hour on my hair (with washing) and he's very detailed, making sure the length and flow is great. I highly recommend Harry at A+! Don't let the language deter you from trying them. read more
