The cost ended up being far higher than expected, and why I technically agreed, it didn't feel like a genuine choice in the moment. Overall, the experience felt more stressful than it should have, especially given how expensive it was. I just wanted people to understand before you walk into the salon that it is not a cheap salon. I had a root smudge low light and highlight which was 800 and something I have friends that work in the field and they thought I had extensions put in as well for the price, just wanted to make people aware

Her stylist, Laura did a thorough consultation and made excellent recommendations. My mom said she felt so relaxed and almost fell asleep while her scalp was being massaged and hair conditioned. Laura was extremely down to earth, sweet and educated my mom on the best techniques to give herself a proper blowout. Laura has been styling hair for over 20 years, primarily on the east coast and now Hilo is lucky to have her style and grace. Overall my mom and family love her new haircut and she's become more confident. Thank you, Laura! My mom will absolutely return for her hair trims. ‍

I didn't expect such a professional and perfect outcome, I feel renewed and am extremely pleased. Highly recommended!!!

I should be suing her, and I WOULD NOT recommend her to any one for hair services…read more It took me a while to do this review because I didn't want emotion clouding an honest review. I have spent the past month since it was done, a lot of emotional damage/turmoil and a few hundred dollars trying to fix what she has irrefutably damaged. I went in for an ombré, and a trim/style and paid $300 for the service initially (photo 1). I didn't receive an ombré, however, I received highlights which should have cost me $90-$130. I followed up with her and asked if she could redo my hair into what I had initially asked for (photo 2). She said that she could do it again after waiting a month or refund me $90; I said I would wait the month and asked her to do it again. She was pleasant when I got back into the studio and I had confidence that she wouldn't mess with my hair. I was WRONG. She proceeded to bleach my hair SIX levels in one setting (even leaving the room for 15 minutes after she put me under the heated hair dryer with tin foil over the bleached hair), causing my hair to become dry, brittle, unable to hold oil or moisture of any kind, and it has started falling out. (Photo 3). This is what my hair looked like before anything was done to it. (Photo 4 to show texture and photo 5 to show length) I'm going to have to cut my hair off and start over the decade it took me to grow it so long and healthy. Words cannot describe the turmoil this woman has put me through. If anyone could recommend a good lawyer, I'm all ears, no hair. FML. I just want to wake up from this $300 hair nightmare. Mahalo

I drove from Kona to Hilo to find someone that specializes in curly hair and she did such an amazing job! I haven't had my hair professionally cut in 7 years and asked for her to cut the dead away and help my curls come back. She's very professional and friendly and extremely knowledgeable about all hair. Any question I asked she happily answered and she taught me how to take care and style my hair at home. I've never been able to so easily achieve the curls I have today and I'm so beyond happy with my hair. Photos are of before and after. I have received countless compliments weeks after getting the haircut and I can't wait to go back.

I can see why this salon is booked way in advanced!…read more Please see a copy of my review from Vagaro: A lovely space in Hilo, close to shops and the main road so it's easily accessible. Plenty of parking shared with other businesses. There's good vibes, good music, and good hair to be had here. Remember the makeover scenes in Miss Congeniality or Princess Diaries and think, "Wow, I wish my hair could be as gorgeous as theirs." Look no further than Tonya at The Beauty Suite! Tonya is super knowledgeable and talks to you about what she's doing with your hair. If you're uncomfortable, let her know because she is full of suggestions to make your hair the best it can be. You leave with hair feeling lighter, healthier, and with more knowledge than when you arrived. I immediately booked for my upcoming wedding, that's how confident I am in Tonya and her business. Thank you, Tonya! Congratulations on the new addition to your family, and a happy 2025!

The best designer in Hilo!…read more I have been in Hilo for a few years, and a great haircut is not easy to come by. Especially if you have curlier hair and cowlicks. I asked Jon (the stylist) to bring life into my shoulder-length hair, that was at this point, a blunt dull drag. He added some bleach-free highlights or "lifts" and blended all of my layers back in. There was a time in my life when I had luxurious Victoria's Secret-esque layers...and I have had so many janky cuts over the past few years that I pretty much said goodbye to that style. Jon gave me a heavy trim, and evened things back out. He is from this island, however he has done hair in California for over a decade and done a wide variety of work, including male cuts. Go see him! Highly recommended!!

There is no sign outside but if you park and go inside you will easily find them. A wonderful experience at a reasonable price.
