Unpleasant experience with manager…read more I went to this salon to get blonde highlights. The last time I saw Amber, she did a good job and I was happy with the result. This time, I asked for more blonde streaks or "ribbons," but the result had very little visible blonde. It looked nothing like what I requested or what I had received previously. I called to have it fixed and was told I first needed to come in for a consultation with the manager, Gizelle. I went in and Gizelle spent 20 minutes telling me that I had not communicated my request for blonde highlights correctly. She insisted on placing the blame on me, even when I reminded her that Amber had no trouble understanding my request for blonde highlights on the previous visit. The interaction felt confrontational rather than helpful. I did receive a refund, but the overall experience was frustrating and disappointing. I also noticed another review here describing an unpleasant experience with Gizelle. Based on this experience, I would be cautious--not just about the consistency of the color work, but especially how customer concerns are handled by management.

I was trying to hold out, but with the humidity and toddlers pulling on my hair, the split and damaged ends were starting to drive me crazy. I just needed a little trim to get it looking healthy again. I am a busy, working mom of 2, so the fact that this salon opens at 8am is amazing! Most places don't open till 9 or 10, right in the middle of my work day. Booking online was seamless. I tried to get there early, but there was some confusion about where it was. I called before 8, not expecting anyone to answer, but someone did and she was super nice and helpful and I was able to find my way there. I parked in front of Cinnamons and went in, and walked around. But FYI, it's actually a different building--if you are facing Cinnamons it's to the right. But plenty parking, so that was nice. Matt was so great! I wish I did more with my hair, but I pretty much either keep it all down or all up (usually up). I do like it being long, but was more concerned about the damaged ends, so I really didn't care how much was cut as long as it was healthy again. They offered coffee and water, which was so nice in the morning. Matt was really friendly and efficient and I really felt like I was being pampered. I didn't expect to--I was just trying to get an early hair cut, but I walked out like I had just had a spa day. I will definitely come back for my next hair cut next year.

As a new mom to a 2 month old baby, I wanted a haircut to feel a little bit more like myself. I brought my son because I have no childcare. He is a very chill baby and sat in his bouncer the entire time. First, I was told that I could not eat my lunch inside and had to step out to eat. This was a surprise - I'm breastfeeding and literally starving all the time so this was a concern. Toward the end of the appointment, my son started crying because he had a dirty diaper. I went to change him on the floor in the waiting room area and another stylist yelled across the salon, "excuse me." I didn't realize she was talking to me. She came over and told me I couldn't change him in here but I had to change him outside to not ruin other's experience. Look, I get it. Baby poop stinks; however, I was going to take it with me and I was literally a new mom in a room full of women who judged and made my life harder instead of supporting me. I left in tears. Also, the parking spots directly in front of the establishment are designated as "employee only" instead of customer. I had to park down the street. I brought my wagon to carry my son's bouncer and received dirty looks for that too. As a woman owned business, do better.

I used yelp to find someplace that could accommodate me on a weekend afternoon and was nearby. Mahalo yelpers! Their website made it super easy to book, I put in the comments that I want to donate my hair and Candie messaged me back to confirm and just to bring something to put it in. It is located BEHIND the gated area of The Boardroom. You feel like you're walking into the restaurant, but it is a little area behind the outdoor seating. It took me a minute to find, I walked along the corner and my GPS kept saying I had arrived. Luckily I called and their VM had a clear description of the location. Candie was so sweet and lovely to talk to. She cut my hair just the way I wanted, and I appreciated that she was efficient. She offered to style it more to look cute, and if I had plans, I totally would, but I was just going home afterwards. She made sure to chop it all off at a clean break, so it was easy to wrap up and donate. She told me to contact her about maintaining it and that it wouldn't take long. Overall I had a really pleasant experience and I would definitely go back to Candie. Mahalo!

I saw a Groupon for Paris Green Salon for a Brazilian blowout, which I've been wanting to do for awhile. I checked out their Facebook page, and saw they had a 1st time customer special for $60 a haircut and color touch-up. I was so fed up with my hair, which my highlights were faded from being in the sun the last month, and unruly from the weather, I called them to make an appointment. I didn't even think that they could fit me in before the holidays, but she said I could come in that same day! Excited, I made the appt and hung up. I then realized I couldn't make it in till 5pm. Saddened that I may have to re-schedule, I called back, and she gladly said that my hairdresser Al was working late that evening. YIPPEE! You always get a little nervous when you go to a hair salon the first time, but they were very nice on the phone, and gave perfect directions. The salon is tucked away in Kailua, behind MacDonalds, where the old Gee, it's a Deli area was in a Coral building. It looked small from the outside, but very cute, clean and quaint inside. They use Paul Mitchell products which I like, but also Morrocon oils, which was a great product on my hair. I had been wanting to cut off 3-5 inches off for awhile, and was trying to grow my bangs out, but still liked them. My highlighlights had gone brassy. After I told Al my woes on my hair, he seemed to know exactly what to do! After seeing myself in the mirror, roots drenched in bleachy goo, I got nervous, but he assured me that I will love the rich color, and my highlights will still shine through. We put a Paul Mitchel Shine conditoner, which I like, he was right, the color was a winner!! Now the crying game, watching my locks being cut.. but before i knew it, I was already transformed to a Movie Star!!! He kept my bangs but "swooped" them to the side, and I still had length with my layers. I usually have them Flat iron my hair, which always make you look hot, but I can NEVER do right at home. Al showed me how to blow-dry it with a round brush that gave it more style, still looked straight, and easy to do! I got many compliments the next day at work, people were calling me "The Glamour Girl", and loved the color and new style. Frizzy hair gone, hello new look! I am a believer, and I believe I have found my new hairdresser!! Thanks Al, and as Arnold says... "I'll be back!" TIP of the Day- Get a shine, inexpensive and great on your hair!

Therefore, I read a lot of reviews before choosing Al at Paris Green Salon. I'm so grateful I happened upon his reviews and felt the need to post my own for the next new girl in town looking for a new stylist and salon. Al gave me a consultation before we began and listened to what I wanted before he provided recommendations to fit my face, hair type, and the low maintenance I was looking for. He gave me beautiful, bright, natural looking beach blonde highlights and a cut with long layers and face framing layers that honestly made me feel like a runway model! My hair has not felt or looked this good in so long. Al brought my sexy back and I definitely recommend him! Ps. For those of you that just want some quiet or reading time during your salon experience, Al made nice friendly conversation but also allowed me to relax and was not too loquacious. That's something I dread when finding a new hair salon! He had a very nice personality.
