Wow, what an awesome experience! Johnny did an incredible job on my daughter's hair. This was my daughter's first deva cut and I am blown away by the results. Both Johnny and Diana were so friendly and accomodating. They really took the time to explain everything to us, step by step, and thoroughly answered all of our numerous questions. My daughter finally loves her curls! We are both so thrilled to have found this salon. read more

I came to Head Trip all the way from Portland, Maine and boy was it worth the 8 hour drive. Diana is an absolute genius. I had had one haircut in my entire 27 years and it was a terrible experience, so I vowed never to go back to a salon in my life, however when I heard about Deva Curl I figured I would give it another try. I was almost to the point of shaving my head out of frustration. I have very thick, coarse, natural, and undernourished hair. I am also mixed race, which has made it nearly impossible to find a local salon offering the services I need. Like I said before, Diana is a hair genius. She knew more about my hair in 2 minutes than I knew from 27 years of dealing with it. Thank you, Diana and Head Trip for making my dreams come true and for helping me embrace my curls! You are all amazing ladies. read more

If you have curly hair then you MUST come here. They are the only ones who know how to do curly hair. The best part is, the first time I went was free.. Jonny spent 2 hours on my hair, and all I had to do was buy the hair products (well I didn't have to, it just didn't make sense to not). You only pay for a hair cut if you need it. My mom went, and I will be taking my young son next. The pictures are all the proof you need. I left with beautiful curls that were so perfect, my hair looked wet..but it was completely dry. read more

So, my first two appointments were awesome!! Based on those reviews alone I could have easily given them five stars. I had gotten a Deva cut before and was still transitioning from a horrible dye job and heat damage. The first two times I went, I had appointments with Johny and she cut off as much as I wanted her to and shaped my hair very well. Excellent job and absolutely no complaints (besides not using enough product when styling to leave the salon so still having to deal with some frizz and having to re-apply products or re-do the hair at home because it looked like Day 5 hair versus day 1). Yeah, everyone gets tired of hearing the devacurl speeches, but I really do believe in the products and the philosophy. Why? Because even though Deva may not work for you, the curly girl method is a real thing and it can work if you are dedicated. The problem came when I came in two to three weeks ago for some pintura highlights and a trim. I told Johny that I wanted my length still but to just frame my face and trim my bangs a bit. I had gotten a very very excellent highlight job last year at another salon that caters to curly hair and also has devachan stylists, but she did not do pintura (I personally do not care for the method at all!) and she put three different colors in my hair, used a toner for the correct tones the first time and used the foils. Yes it was time consuming, but it was nice to not have someone cut corners and I got so many compliments on my hair! I sat down for my highlights and she told me that she would do the pintura which I was open to at the time, but I told her that I wanted it to blend in with the highlights that I already had and I also showed her pictures of what I wanted the color to look like. She gave me a gold color which I thought was okay at that time and she told me would lighten up as the days progressed and I was outside in the sun more. Okay, fair enough. She styled it well and I went along my way after re-upping my Deva product stash. 3 days later, I am re-doing my hair only to find out that she did huge chunks on my right side of my head and barely any color on my left. I don't really wear my hair parted on the right side regularly, so that is a problem. I was instantly annoyed and called Johny to let her know that I was not happy. A few days later, she called to tell me that she could do the toner on the 16th, which did not work for me. I called her back to give her the days that worked for me and she never called back. Finally, I called last week Thursday to see if she could squeeze me in behind my friend on Saturday for a "pampering day" that her Boyfriend was paying for. I asked if she could use a toner this time and told her that I wanted less gold and more of an ash blonde. Easy fix, right? Just use a toner. I get there and not only do they NOT have the toner and she doesn't tell me.... she doesn't tell me any of this before she applied a dye to my hair to "tone it down", or rather, put my hair through another process that I am not happy with. My friend explained to me later that they didn't have it and I didn't even hear her saying any of this. Yeah, it looks okay, some people think it's cute, but it's not what I wanted at the end of the day and I'm still pissed that he paid for a service that I didn't like. To be 100% honest, I will probably never go back to Johny for a color service. That was supposed to be a pampering day for my bestie which is why I didn't make a huge stink right then and there. Honestly, since I don't feel that they do very many color services and stick to the natural hair philosophy and the curly girl method, I don't think that she has very much experience. What have I learned from this lesson? That if you find a colorist that you like, stick with them and realize that not every stylist can do color. Also realize that you may have to shell out more cash for separate services at separate salons. Liking a stylist and finding one who can do what you ask are completely different things. Yes, I like Johny and I like the natural hair services that she provides, but she needs more experience in hair coloring and not rushing through her clients, which for the past two visits, she has done with both me and my friend. Maybe she needs to leave more time for her clients or leave a 30 minute slot open after each appointment so that she isn't completely ignoring requests (like my BFF not wanting Johny to scrunch her hair and she did it anyway) or me telling her that I wanted to try to use the diffuser myself and she did it her way then tried to stick me under the hooded dryer when we said our time was limited. Either way, she will probably not like the review so, I know that I am completely done with coloring services from her. read more

I got my DevaCut around June from Head Trip Studios and the experience was a little bland. If you are a curly girl like myself you know how glorified and talked about the DevaCut is in the natural hair community. I have done a lot of research and transitioning to get my curls to the state they are in now. I wanted to clarify that because I think that is the reason I did not have a "WOW" moment at Head Trip Studios. I came in for some shape and the cut itself was a good one but the experience itself felt a little rehearsed. I had Jonni as my stylist and I don't know if she just wasn't having a good day but she didn't have much enthusiasm and she was a bit quiet. During the wash and cut she did add tid bits of information, about a sentence or two long each time, but it was typical information for individuals using the Deva products for the first time. I just assumed that the experience would be much more personalized like in the Youtube videos but it wasn't. In an attempt for small talk, I asked her about my hair type and she just pointed at a chart of the four types classified by DevaCurl and told me I had S'Wavy hair. That caught me by surprised and I figured she notice because she back tracked and said I had a mix of S'Wavy and Bottecilli which is more of what I was expecting. I asked her if she knew what hair type/texture I was explaining 3a, 3b, and 3c type hair and she told me she didn't know much about that because they just use the DevaCurl classification system. I was little disappointed with that answer because I expected them to know more than just what information DevaCurl gives them. As a natural girl, I researched a lot about porosity and textures so I wanted to get an opinion from a professional on how I can pick products or maximize volume. Now, they don't push the products on you hard which I appreciate but they do let you know what they used and recommend the Deva Curl products as the best. During the experience, my face was just a bit serious and I think the owner noticed because she gave me a warm smile and compliment. I really appreciated that because I was nervous and wasn't sure what to expect. Jonni stayed true to what I requested and did not cut a lot of length off my hair which is a pleasant surprise because I know a lot of stylist that can go scissor happy. My hair felt lighter after the whole experience which took a little getting used to because my hair was very bottom heavy now that I look back at previous cuts. Overall, I was happy with the cut and just wished I got a more personalized experience. I did want to go back a give them another try but my call was never returned. I called to see if they had other pricing points for cuts other than their standard $85.00 DevaCut experience that I had received previously. I did not need to learn about the Deva product because I learned what they had to say already and just wanted a dry cut. Unfortunately, I never got a response and I am not sure whether to return or find another stylist. ****My rating is based on the cut and not on the experience. I would give the experience a 3 star but the cut is really whats important**** I am adding two photos to this review. The first would be the before and after photos that were taking right after the cut and quick diffusing by Head Trip Studios. The second is a few months later after I styled it with the DevaCurl Coconut SuperCream and CurlKeeper Ultimate Hold Gel. read more

Jonni is amazing! I have 4b/4c kinky hair. I big chopped last Friday at a different salon but the cut was uneven, had no shape and still had relaxed ends everywhere. Jonni took the time to trim each curl to perfection and shaped the hair to me face. She talked me through each step she was doing so that I can replicate it at home. It's pricey but worth it. You are buying the service and the instruction. This is better than salons who withhold sharing techniques and the ingredients of their concoction in a bottle so you are forced to return to their salon to get the same results. I appreciate the shared information so that I can manage my hair at home. I'll definitely come here again. And I love the house dog , Bella. read more

I want my money back. It is interesting that when I put my review of this place, it disappears very quickly. I want my money back. I went in and said it took a long time for me to grow my hair and feel that it needs a trim and maybe some layering. I said I hate the way it splits in top and need it cut so it stays together. So the first thing I was taught is how to put the shampoo in my hair while it is split- wring. Then it was cut. It was cut up to the nape if my neck and it was as if someone put a bowl on my head. They know nothing about curly hair or styling. I was hoping to find someone who can cut curly hair. The place I went to before kept my long hair but did not style it. This cut is horrible. The worse I have ever go It's been 3 months since I had the worst haircut of my life. I have tried to have another person work with this hair that was destroyed. she did her best but it still looks terrible. It takes so long to grow which I had told johnnie as she cut away without any thought. Horrible read more

Jonni has cut my daughters very curly hair twice. Both visits we left loving her new defined and nourished curls. Jonni and Diane are both extremely knowledgeable and friendly. I would highly recommend this salon if you have curly hair and you are looking for shape and definition in your curls. read more

I got my hair done a couple months ago and I forgot to write a review! This place is great. I had Jonni, who made me feel very welcome. She had great energy and personality to go with it. Before this visit, the last time I got my hair cut was probably 3 years ago! Which is not a good thing for people with curly hair but I don't trust people cutting my hair. I knew I had to go to a salon specializing in curly hair so I did research after reading an article about cutting curly hair dry. Choosing Head Trip was the best decision. My consultation with Jonni went well and I explained to her that I didn't want to cut it too short and I told her all the products I used which was at least five, not including shampoo and conditioner. She told me that those products dried my hair out because of the silicon and deva curl products did the opposite as it allowed moisture in. She walked me thorough all the steps of using the products at home from cleansing to conditioning to styling. The end result was amazing! I've never seen my hair so moisturized and curly! At first I went in just wanting a cut and that's it but my experience convinced me to get the products and now I will not use anything else! Now I don't worry when the weather is humid or rainy because I know my hair wont get frizzy and it's great not having to worry about that! Definitely go to this salon if you have curly hair. If you live in Philly, you can take the PATCO to the Haddonfield station and its a few blocks from there so it's very accessible! I recommended this place to someone from work (who is picky) and she was very pleased with her cut as well. read more

As a black woman with 4a hair, with a touch of 3c, I was a little leery of going here at first, but after looking at their Insta and speaking with the owner, I decided to give it a shot. I really like the way she cut my hair; true Deva Cut. She was also super knowledgeable about the products and gave me some good pointers that I have already put to use and has allowed me to use less product. If you use Deva products, you know they're not cheap, so being able to use less is huge! read more

I highly recommend seeing Johnny, it's a great experience. Also I've had my make up done by Gigi before, she really knows what she's doing I felt sooo beautiful after. read more

I really wish I could leave a good review, because everyone here was so nice. But I'm still dealing with a terrible haircut. My stylist was Johnny. I have naturally curly hair and went in for a Devacut. I've had Devacuts at other salons before, so I know how it goes. Your hair is cut dry, one curl at a time. Or that's how it's supposed to be done. Johnny decided to pick up some chunks of curls and cut them all together. I'd told her that I wanted to keep the length aside from a trim, but I have an issue with the top of my hair getting weighed down so wanted some more layers and volume at the top. What I ended up with was some weird cut where the top layer of my hair was way, way too short - think the tops of my ears - and the bottom was the same length I came in with - a few inches below my shoulders. The layers didn't blend at all. Non-confrontational wimp that I am, I put on a fake smile and hoped that after washing and styling with my own products, it would look better. Spoiler alert, it didn't. Side note, speaking of products...I understand that salons want you to purchase the products they sell. That's fine, they're running a business. What I don't like is being told that I should stop using the products I currently use and know work for me, especially when I've already tried many of the DevaCurl products and didn't have success with most of them. Johnny went as far as to say that other brands "lie" about not having silicones. Well, no, I can read an ingredients list and know that the ones I use don't. No matter how great a product is, it won't work for everyone, and that includes DevaCurl. She also hadn't heard of some common curly hair brands like Jessicurl and Mielle, which was off putting. Pretty sure she was only familiar with DevaCurl. I tried to give the cut a few days and see if it would look better, but no luck. I did call and go back in to see if it could be fixed (I was hoping for another stylist). Johnny took a few more snips off the bottom, but it was clear that the only way to fix the short layers would be to cut my hair several inches shorter, which I didn't want to do. She told me, "I wanted the top to grow out some." No one gets their hair cut wanting to have to wait for it to grow out before it looks decent. Again, I hate having to give the salon a bad review. Johnny was very sweet, didn't charge for me coming back in, and I wanted to like the cut so badly because I really liked her. But there's no way I'll ever go back and risk having a bad cut again. read more

This hair salon is great if you are just interested in products for curly hair; however do not go there for hair coloring. You will have better luck with the box chain salons. After doing my research there are other places that do color for natural curly hair. My daughter went in for coloring and showed several pictures of the color she wanted the stylist didn't know what she was doing and the color came out " MIDNIGHT BLACK " I will not be going back to Head Trip Studio. $85.00 dollars plus a $15.00 tip is money wasted I could have box hair color and receive better results read more

I came here in search of a beautiful full curly cut and left with a horrible, smushed cut. I later learned from a real stylist it was cut horribly uneven and it just made me even more mad. The woman Jonnie didn't listen to anything I said or anything I wanted. When I walked out I looked like I had a jerry curl. It was terrible and I feel I threw my money away. read more

I was super excited about going to this salon and I made my appointment about a month ago. I told the scheduler that I wanted my hair colored and she gave me an appointment with Diana. I finally went to this salon last week. When I get there she educated me on Devacurl which was great, and I showed her a picture of the exact hair color I was looking for on someone with a hair texture almost identical to mine. She asked if she could take a before and after, to which I said okay to and she took several pictures. But when she started I noticed that she was giving me highlights instead of all over color. So I'm thinking okay cool, I'm going for a drastic change so she's taking me there slowly and I'll come back to get the color I want. At the end when she was done, I asked her how soon I could I come back to add more color to get to where I wanted to be. Diana informed me that it wasn't a good idea to keep adding more color. She did NOT take an "After" picture like she said she would. I left the salon mortified and cried when I got home because I was nowhere near where I wanted to be, my hair colors didn't blend seamlessly and I looked like a bumble bee because my natural hair color is very dark and my highlights are basically platinum blonde. I began to wonder if she didn't take an after photo because she knew how badly my hair looked. My mom and sister even pointed out that some of my hair towards the back of my head was a greenish blue color and I had my mom cut out several pieces to avoid looking ridiculous in public. I ended up calling the salon back the next morning because I was so upset with my hair and Diana was FAR from apologetic and I was made to feel as if I was wrong for telling her that I didn't get what I asked for and she was SURE that she gave me what I asked, but she told me to come in so she could look at my hair. Fast forward to the appointment..Diana still continued to say that she had given me what I had asked for and said that she would be able to give me more highlights but I would have to pay for more color! I was completely shocked by this and I refused to pay even MORE money when I was not originally given what I asked for. In the end, I was refunded but I still left defeated and unsatisfied. I didn't want my money back, I simply wanted what I asked for and now I'm stuck with bumble bee highlights until I can find someone TRUSTWORTHY to give me what I actually want. read more

I have super curly hair and know that to get a good cut you need a Devacut. After some searching I came across Head Trip Studio. This is now my go to spot for my curly locks. I've seen Jonni a few times already and I'm always happy with the result! I love my hair but sometimes I want to be a bit bold with the cut. Most stylists would deter me from trying a bold new style, but Jonni was totally supportive of trying something different. My husband loves my hair and told me I should keep going back to her. I will! read more

I walked in with hair running down my neck. I asked for an inch off and a bit of lightening/reshaping at the top. When she was done, I had practically boy-short hair! It looked like a ball on my head, with no hair visible past my jaw! The curls didn't even look good, but there was so little hair left to curl. How can someone get "an inch off the length" so wrong. I like short hair. I've had it before. But I didn't ask for short hair. At one point, the haircut was visibly asymmetrical. I pointed this out near the end, which pained me because it was already too short. Johnny insisted, "That's just because of your curl pattern." Um, excuse me? I know curl patterns differ, but this looked like I had two different haircuts on each side, something no hairdresser has managed to achieve before. She eventually conceded and trimmed the one side, but then she decided she had to go back and even it out *again* on the other side. I sat mortified as my hair got clipped away to barely there. Worst haircut I ever had, and the most expensive too! read more

I've been a Devachan client for over 6 years. My stylist moved and no longer works for Devachan. I went to the Soho location 2 to 3 times a year. I figured I would see if there were any Devacut stylist in my area and this salon came up. The owner Diane was very nice but said she would be outta town and Johnnie was just as good. Well I received the WORST haircut ever! I've never had my curls chopped up and so uneven. Then she kept telling me her sissors were dull like that made me feel any better as she ruined my hair! I would never recommend this shop to anyone! I was in tears and had to get a corrected cut at Devachan. I was so embarrassed! Also I had to get so much length cut off because she chopped into my hair to "take out the density" who does that! If she were not sure how to properly trim/cut my curls I wish she would have said so. read more

I had my first consultation and appointment with Johnny and I'm in love with my hair all over again! She is fantastic!!! During the consultation, she actively listens to your concerns, your lifestyle and your wants. Your hair gets cut dry, which makes all the difference in the world. During your wash with the DevaCurl product, she teaches you how to use it as she's doing it. Same thing with each product. Her excitement is contagious as she can see how your hair is responding to a new way of being cut and the product. I've always loved my curly hair before but after my cut, it's like I never knew how fabulous my curls were this whole time. The product is great and by the way, 20% off product if you're a customer. Bonus! Although the cut may be a tad pricier, it's absolutely worth it and your curls will thank you!! read more

absolute waste of $85.00. all about pushing products. amature cut for the money and would never go back
