Like most people, I really needed a haircut. My usual hair stylist is still out so decided to take a chance on this place. They can take walk-ins unlike other places where an appointment is needed. Rosie did a wonderful job with my hair! She is meticulous and took her time to make sure everything is even considering the fact that they are starting to get busy. They only take cash for now like most salons around the area. Give them a try and support local businesses during this difficult time. read more

DK Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - San Jose, California

First come, first serve but they play favorites. I have been coming to this barbershop for over a year since moving to San Jose and they get my requests right about 30% of the time. Before coming here I had a pretty good mid-fade with medium length hair on top and short on the side. After requesting for a mid fade, I ended up with an undercut so that's that. Ever since, I would ask for a low fade knowing they cut higher than expected. Only keep coming back because their prices are great but it's a mixed bag. Sometimes I get an amazing hair cut, sometimes I have to go back 30 minutes later because the barber didn't blend my sides and I can clearly see the line when she changed guards. Overall, it's okay. Kind of forced me to write this review because I went in, five minutes later, two guys arrive and the only available barber serviced them first. They acted a bit surprised to go first so I'm assuming they didn't actually call ahead and reserve. read more

I was doing errands Friday night and being stuck in traffic from Palo Alto to Milpitas I forgot I needed a darn haircut. So after I picked up my new spectacles at the Great Mall, I sat in the parking lot looking for a Haircut Shop that was not going to close at 7PM. Nearest one was DK Salon. So I hopped onto 680 south and proceeded to my destination. Upon arriving at the shop the front parking was filled so I parked on the side and walked in. Place is large but wasn't filled with customers mainly due to the fact that it was 7:30PM. Kim tended to my haircut needs and understood what I needed. There were no mistakes from her and she is gentle as caring as she looks. Her shampoo and scalp massage was very relaxing and I nearly fell asleep. I'll definitely be back in 2 weeks. Even if its out of my way. Kim does a wonderful job! read more

Chi has been cutting my hair and my two sons for almost 4 years. As long as I live in San Jose I can never go to another barber. She's great, she's always consistent on what type of hairstyle you want, and also beautiful. Great place My son-"Hi it's shane :0 I like this place it's Kool" read more

The workers here are extremely rude. I went here to get my hair done for an event. They kept talking shit about my hair in Vietnamese, not realizing I understand the language. I waited until the end to respond in Vietnamese and they looked embarrassed. I didn't leave a cash tip but a pro tip for this place is to avoid it at all cost. read more

I was skeptical coming here at first because I am a very picky person when it comes to my hair. But you know this place is great! I was greeting while entering by this lady name Jenny, and OH boy was she a sweetheart. I came here for a trim, and you know what? I am definitely going back here again!! Jenny takes her time cutting my hair to the style that i wanted it to look like. This place also does wax, hair color treatment, cut, etc. come on in and ask for jenny! read more

Haircut review only! This is your typical Asian lady numbers haircut. 8$ for men. I came through yelp reviews needing a haircut. Make sure to give them simple, but specifics or else they will take your hair to places you have never gone before. I like to keep my hair semi short (#4 on the sides with trim and texture on the top). They will cut small portion of your head and ask you if it's the right length you want. Place is kept very clean and space is very large. Employees are very friendly and talk about travels and beauties in life. WARNING: This is not a place for men to go styling. It's strictly simple or short haircuts. #tip 1. Shampoo and dry your hair before hand to make sure your hair doesn't have morning curls. (easier on them) #tip 2. Park on the side of the building. (You could easily get into car accident on the way out) #tip 3. It's a 8$ haircut so you should always tip! read more

Great place if you want your hair done, waxing, facials, etc. for quality work for unbeatable prices. The store is really beautiful inside and the atmosphere is so up beat, and they play some pretty good music. I come here all the time to get everything done. As a returning customer the quality of their service has not went down at all. If I want anything done, I'm always here. Jenny and her employees give quality cuts. She is the owner of the shop, and she has a 23 year old son that often stops by there to hang out, and he's super cute ;) All her employees are top notch, all of them licensed and do great work. If you want your nails done, ask for Sang. She does the best designs!!! It's a blast to be there, some times I come there just to hang out and have a good chat with her and the employees After getting a hair cut, if you choose to wash your hair/face, try to get a girl named Nguyen to do it. She gives the BEST massages while washing your hair and face, so good that I almost fell asleep within the first few minutes. She's also great with waxing, she's my go-to-girl for eyebrows. I would highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a good salon/stylist to always return to. Great employees and staff, you'll absolutely love them. Remember to leave a generous tip! read more

Wow! This place saved my life! Needed a haircut ASAP for a special event and my regular barber was not working so I had to yelp a nearby place with good reviews and came upon this. Now I came in and was welcomed by all of the employees and they asked if i needed a haircut so I went to some random lady. i was kind of reluctant because it's usually the not-so-great person that grabs a new customer but after explaining what I want, the lady acted like she knew what I wanted. My vietnamese is non-existant so I explained everything in mostly english and hand gestures. If i had her name, I would definitely would have mentioned it! She proceeded with my sides and confirmed with me how short I wanted, and how high i wanted the fade. I usually get a faux hawk from my regular barber in milpitas but I had no time to drive out there, but going here saved me about 10 bucks than what I usually pay for !! Thank you for the cut and here is 5 stars!!~ read more

I love you Jennnnnay! haha Ok for those looking for an awesome fade and a good straight edge line up this is the place to go! At first i was a bit scared because i have been cutting my own hair for quite sometime but i really needed a skin fade. Jenny is the person i regularly go to and her fades are fantastic and you leave lookin FRESH! The prices are very fair and if you ask for the shampoo you wont be disappointed. They give you a very good head massage and they clean up the face well. ASK FOR JENNY! read more

I got my bangs trimmed here as well as a brow wax. The stylist who helped me was really sweet and she did a great job. I didn't get her name but I'll be back so I will definitely remember to ask her then. read more

DK Salon - Interior - Hair Salons Near Me - San Jose, California

I hate to give bad reviews to places that aren't really bad, but after being on the fence as to adjusting the rating downward, I finally moved it to three stars. For a really simple, by-the-numbers cut, this place is a 4-star. For anyone who requires more of a style, then it's a 3-star. It's like the difference between hair salons and barbers: one gives you a simple cut while the other gives you a fancy style. (That's the way it's *supposed* to be, anyway.) After looking at my 2-year-old's hair for a couple of days, I realize that it just got hacked. It's like three different haircuts, and they don't work together. My little kid really needs a stylist for his kind of hair. The other kids can use the by-the-numbers cuts. Now, I am judging the place one the one person that cut his hair, too. It's hard to beat the prices here, but if you need a good styling, you might want to look elsewhere. read more

Astounded.. my hair cut was done by Jenny.. and it was quite amazing compared to the million other haircuts i have gotten in my lifetime. Highlights: 1. she finished me off with a razor.. She used one of those super sharp razors they use at Art of shaving to clean all hair off including my ear lobs 2. She washed my hair and face... omg.. never had the A+ detailing before. 3. Haircut was good. no question she is one of the best. YMMV read more

I don't know what the girls name is that cut my hair but I'm not happy. The cut itself was average. Definitely not a $18 hair cut, which is how much it costs for a women's hair cut here. When she was done with my cut she asked me if I wanted her to curl my hair. Sure why not? When I gave her my debit, I saw that I was charged $25.50. I was pretty pissed. I asked he why I was charged so much. She said the cut is $18, cut and curl is $25. I guess 50¢ charge for debit/credit? She didn't tell me it was an extra charge for the curl. AND SHE DIDNT EVEN CURL MY HAIR NICE! I had to tuck my bangs behind my ears because the style is so bad. I'm never coming here again read more

LOVE DK SALON. My hair is really hard to tame (anyone can vouch for this). Thank goodness for someone to keep my weave under control! Whether its updo's/styling for prom/weddings/raves or haircut or coloring or extensions (I do all of the above). They also do facials, waxing, nails...just lots of beautification options. Clean store, great ladies (JENNY does wonders), happy results whether you need your nails done, hair done, everything did. Come here, get fancy, and you won't regret it! For both males and females :) read more

Got my hair done by Jenny and my toes done by another girl. Usually I would go to LA to get my hair done but it gets tiring to go to la just for that. Found dk salon & love the color jenny did my hair!! Finally cut all my dead ends too. 5 stars baby. 5 stars And my feet. Maaannn...they were neglected for soo long. My feet feel soo much better now :) read more

Thank you fellow Yelpers for leading me to this great find! Wonderful, attentive haircut; straight razor shave; friendly late-night service; very affordable! read more

$18 basic trim from Jenny. They talk A LOT to each other in Vietnamese during the process. read more

I love this place! Nguyen cut my hair and she was very patient, careful. She really concentrated on cutting my hair instead of gossiping. I was very pleased with how my hair turn out to be. I would definitely come back for more hair cut/trim in the future. read more

I've been to this place three times. Gives you decent haircut at a decent price. I've been to better salons but for a $8(be nice give the stylist a tip) haircut what more can you ask. Be sure to tell the stylist how you want your haircut done, or else risking getting it cut too short. read more

I've had such different experiences every time I come to this salon, some good and some bad so it averages out to about three stars. My first experience was highlights. I'm not sure what happened, but the color that came out was not the color I chose. I wanted a deep burgundy kind of red, but it turned out candy apple little mermaid red. Came back the next day to fix it and they couldn't admit that it was their fault. They ended up dyeing my hair a brown color to drown out the red which resulted in a good brunette which red undertones. I was happy with it so I couldn't complain too much, except everything ended up costing me around $220...that's an arm and a leg! I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt so I came back a second time for a trim and another color. This time, I chose an auburn copper tone which turned out beautifully. The cut was fine and the lady who did my hair was really nice. This was a good redeeming experience for me. The only thing is that I think I get overcharged. I feel like this salon doesn't have a set price for services, the owner kind of makes up a number for how much she wants to charge and you either agree or you don't. This doesn't work out so well for me because I can never say no! Hopefully, since I'm a repeat customer and she remembers me she won't charge me as much next time? read more

This is my place to go get my haircuts! I always ask for Jenny She's great at listening to your request. I always go in to get high volume And she does an amazing job My mom my sister my best friend and even my boyfriend love her haircuts also For super affordable too! I always leave a big tip because the work is that good. However I will add that they're not great at doing color. So if your looking for a haircut this is the place to go ! read more

I have been coming here since 2007. It doesn't matter where I am in the BayArea I will always make the drive to visit my friends at DK Salon in the East of San Jose. The owner usually cuts my hair or her station neighbor, they have cut my hair in so many different styles from my top knot days to my high and low fades, i mean its been a ten year relationship I don't plan to end anytime soon. This is 100% my favorite place to get my hair cut because prices is $8 for men and they always get it right! They offer waxing, dye, manicures and an awesome quick neck massage after every hair cut. Definitely recommend this place even if you have to make the drive like I do, 30 minutes now a days but its worth it! They have Vietnamese novelas on sometimes or music and they are really friendly and talkative ladies. Oh and they sell hair related products as well. So many reasons to visit DK Salon in San Jose! I am adding a bonus golden star for consistency and reliability! You can always count on them for a fresh cut at a good price. read more

DK Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - San Jose, California

Cheap haircut and Definitely want to get a shampoo because they include a massage! Wow! What service! If you like shorter hairstyles, this is the place, but don't expect too much, just a very well priced haircut. read more

I came to this place because of the good review from yelp. the service is good. but the hair style is bad. don"t go there to cut lady"s hair they make you look like a boy read more

Probably the best place to get a haircut and definitely my go-to moving forward. I came in the morning around 10 was quickly seated and given a haircut. I asked for a high fade and was not disappointed. The parking is a little tricky if the lot in the store front is full but you cannot beat the price! read more

I love this place. And it's not because my friend's mother owns this store either. I've came here for multiple occasions. The first, was to highlight my hair. And even though my hair wasn't naturally black, the stylist tried her best to get it to platinum . It's difficult to pull platinum out of straight black hair. And she came pretty close. It didn't matter though, it still looked nice. Second time was prom, It was a simple HALF-DO, but it was reallllyy cute. It's stayed up alll day. Third, i took my sister here for a haircut, and it turned out better than our old hair stylist! So when i needed a haircut, i tried here also. Not to mention, this store comes with a good price. Facials, haircuts to nails. I also took my male friend here, and he couldn't get over his haircut. haha read more

I came in thirty minutes before they closed to get a haircut and they took me in and took their time. The employees were very nice and I would recommend going there to any of my friends. read more

Generally pretty happy with the hair cuts I get from this place. Good price and nice stylists. The owner is great at her craft, but beware the new girl, who is still learning.:-) read more

You. Must. Ask. For. Vu. You will not regret it. Both my mom and I have REALLY long hair and we've been coming to him for the last few years. We've both had several cuts and also the Japanese Straight Perms. He used to cut celebrity stylists hair in Vietnam. And here's the catch...he does NOT speak English very well at all, but you really don't have to worry. He's clearly a professional. You can definitely tell by the way he handles his shears. Frankly, he's better than the owner. He is often booked through the week, so make reservations early. read more

I got my haircut here and I absolutely loved it. I got it cut by Jenny. I also ended up getting a facial by Nguyen and she did a great job! The only thing I was disappointed in is that I still had quite a lot of split ends after the cut. It's not a big deal, but I think it would be nice of them to ask if you want certain services and let you know of the additional cost (i.e., hair wash). It's not a big deal, but I'd just like no surprises when I pay. Other than those two things, this place is great. I'd definitely come back! Another plus, I went in without an appointment and got my haircut immediately, Jenny was very attentive and didn't rush (which I appreciate). However, I'd suggest making an appointment first because after I got served, many customers came in and had to wait if they wanted Jenny. read more

I came in for the first time and LOVED my experience. I came in at 7:15ish and they closed at 8 that night. I didn't get seated until 7:30 and she worked on my haircut until 8:20 and there was STILL another customer waiting for her! I really appreciated that she took her time on me, instead of rushing to get off work. She (I wish I had gotten her name!) was precise and detailed. Affordable prices too! I'll definitely be back! read more

Nice Salon ! I usually don't stick to one place for haircut; but since I had haircut here, I have been going here. They nicely cut hair and friendly staff. read more

10 bucks plus tip for a great fade. i'd definitely come back if i'm back in town. space is clean and they are open late.

This is not a place to go if you're used to high-end salon cuts and styling and if that is what you're looking for. I am happy with my hair-cut, it was cut a little too short, but I will return for future trims. I just have to be persistent about what I want and watch carefully. A good decent price for the job done, she gave me fresh layers which was nice, although I didn't ask for it. She also gave me advice on how to maintain the health of my hair when using heating products. One down-side is that out of the two times I've been here they do try to push other products or services on you, but for the prices and quality it's something I can overlook. Haircut was $18.50 I've also gotten my eyebrows done here for $7. A price you can't beat and they looked flawless so I will be returning for this service as well. read more

Very fast, friendly, and affordable. One of the best haircuts I have ever gotten. And you get a neck massage!- that's what's up :)

Typical Asian salon with elderly Vietnamese woman gossiping all day.. That never really bothered me since I'm always on my phone doing my own my thing. Upon Arrival it wasn't busy at all just 2 customers and 4 lady's working. They made me wait about 10-15 minutes since I guess only 1 lady knew how to do a pedicure. As I was waiting soaking my feet in the water I seen a baby cockroach.. That should have been my reason to go.. But I lived nearby and really needed a pedicure. So I just went along with it since it crawled somewhere n I didn't see it again. A sweet Asian lady came to do my toes.. She wasn't the best but kept looking up to make sure things were ok. I got a pedicure with hot stones for $18.. Pedicure and nail painting sucked I should have just done it myself if I knew she couldn't paint. As I went to pay she charged me $18 without giving me hot stones. So I asked her why would I pay the same amount with hot stones if I didn't get it.. She seemed very confused and didn't seem to know what I was talking about.. I'm the one to never to try to argue over something small but she tried to make me look dumb while I was paying like she didn't understand English. Little did she know I could speak Vietnamese so I asked her in viet instead and she goes.. Oh...I didn't give u hot stones because it was so hot I didn't think you wanted it. Ok? That was pretty dumb. She never asked me once about it. I didn't care much for the hot stone since it was so hot in there I just wanted her to hurry up n leave. In the end I paid her $18 for a shitty pedicure. I'm never the one to be cheap but this is the first time I never tipped a nail lady. Overall don't come to this run down Asian salon unless u like to be ripped off read more

DK Salon experience was excellent. Came in without a picture or reference. Simply described it to the best of my ability and the stylist got it on point! Hair cut and head massage..left the placed as a very satisfied customer. will come back to this DK! Great staff and employees read more

I just got a trim of my wavy, fine hair from Jenny. She didn't wash it but wet it, which resulted in a very clean and lovely cut. My hair is hard to make even due to the waves. It was one of the best cuts I have ever had, I will be going back. read more

I have been going to Dk salon for about a year and I am really happy with their work and professionalism. I went today june 10 2014 for a hair cut and i was really happy with the results. Sang was very patient and she did a very good job with my hair cut. She knows her job and she cares about her customers and their needs. Sang offered a hair wash after the hair cut and she did a facial wash and light neck and back massage. I would recomend DK salon to anybody that needs a good hair cut. Thank you Sang. read more
