I live in Manhattan and commute 1.5 hours both ways just to get my hair done here. The owner is incredibly sweet and hilarious, and she knows exactly what she's doing. I came here alone my first time about a year ago, and she made me feel very welcomed and comfortable, providing a short yet effective consultation before bleaching, coloring and cutting my hair, which turned out gorgeous. The male stylist is also very talented; he cut my hair during my most recent visit and I am SO happy with how it turned out!!!! The reason why I commute so far to come here is because the price is so reasonable as well, even with a generous tip (which I always give bc they always deserve). In addition, the service is excellent and they always deliver the desired results! I cannot recommend this place more! read more

Hi cannot express my disappointment enough. I was quoted a price for a dye and the price they charged me was double without an explanation and without even warning me before I started the services. My hair came out completely different from the color I showed them. Advice to all - Make sure you get a written quote from them before starting your treatment. read more

DONT COME HERE!! Terrible experience!! Multiple people drag and touch your hair when coloring because the experienced hair stylist is busy with other customer! You are better off buying the dye and dying the hair yourself than going there and pay $200 bucks for a poor and rushed work!! I asked for some real color but look at what they did! You decide whether you still want to go. read more

I asked for volume and curls and that's what I got! I couldn't be more pleased with how my perm turned out. Miyoung took the time to give me a consultation and provided invaluable feedback based on the photos I showed her. We ended up going with a cold perm with body waves. I was well taken care of throughout my time at the salon and I felt comfortable. Will definitely be back! read more

The hair stylist did a terrible job cutting my hair. I showed her a photo of hair with layers, but she proceeded to cut my hair straight...most stylists taper my hair as I have puffy hair. I've rarely had a stylist give me blunt straight cut; I think a good stylist knows this. I had to ask her to cut layers towards the end when it became clear that she wasn't going to actually do it. She also did not ask me which hair parting I preferred (normally hair stylists ask me). Just assumed it was left even though I prefer center part. Another complaint I have is the laziness with which she blew dry my hair. She made a comment saying I should get straight hair perm...did I ask? It's not an excuse to do a crap job at blowdrying your client's hair. Overall, I don't recommend this place. I'm surprised that they have over 4 stars on here. Everytime I look at my haircut in the mirror, I get so mad...ugh now I need to go to another stylist to fix this poor haircut. read more

One of the best hair studios I have ever been to, I worked with the male color specialist here and he was able to turn my hair white blonde without damage in one sitting. Hidy is clean, the specialists are professional and polite, and has a very polished feel. I would highly recommend Hidy and Hans Hair Salon; they're my two favorite salons on the East Coast in the United States. read more

I previously had a very good experience getting my haircut here, 5 stars. So I'm really disappointed to say I did not enjoy my hair colouring experience. I showed the inspo and confirmed I want a cool color - ash with cool/lavender undertones. They confirmed saying they're going to tone it purple...it was a long process, 5 hours. And my hair came out super yellow/warm. I tried ask if they could fix it and the response was that my hair undertones were warm so this is just the result. I wish they offered to fix it.. I asked 3x if there was any way I can get it cooler (this was not a cheap experience either $350 before tip) and they just said they could either dye it darker or I would have to come back for another round of highlights. I don't really understand how a request for cool colors just resulted in a warm auburn one. They could've said in the begining that my hair was not apt for a cool color but instead kept saying they could do it and then in the end pretended I had asked for a warm color the whole time?! With tip I ended spending over $400 and am disappointed it was not close to any of the inspo pics I showed. read more

I've been getting my hair cut at Hidy for +5 years now and I've been very satisfied with my experience here. Everyone on the staff is very friendly, professional, and accommodating. I highly recommend Mirha--not only is she very skilled, but she also has a great sense for recommending personalized adjustments and changes to your cut (e.g. suggesting a slightly shorter cut during the summer after I mentioned that I sweat a lot). Parking Tip (as of writing this review): Make sure to have coins on hand since street parking in this area can be a little weird. Some of the meters accept credit cards, but not all of them and a few of the meters are sometimes have broken card readers. read more

Always love my haircuts form Jay the owner. I was admittedly reluctant to go during covid but I scheduled for the first appointment (10a). There was only one other client there. Everyone was wearing masks and Jay was okay with me skipping the hair wash and blow dry, so rather than an hour I spent 20-30 min in the chair. read more

After several missteps trying to find the right salon, I finally found the one! I recognize Hair Hidy as a Fort Lee staple and I finally decided to give it a try. Boy did I make the right call. Jenny and Jay took such great care of my friend and me. They are both so kind and gentle and they were very masterful in cutting, coloring, and treating our hair. I am so happy to have found professionals to whom I can trust my hair and Hair Hidy will now be my staple. read more

The salon is owned by husband and wife and I wish I had either one of them to cut my hair. Because it was my first time there I didn't know who was who, I made an appointment and they gave me Jimmy. (It appears that any non-Korean speaking customers go to Jimmy). Jimmy is a nice guy, but he is young, which also means less experienced. I could tell by seeing how he was cutting my hair, very slowly and carefully and it took him an hour when the owner had finished 2 customers during that same time. I so very much wanted to ask one of the owners as they seemed more experienced but at the same time I didn't want to seem rude to Jimmy, so I went along with it, and boy I regret for not following my instinct. I drove almost 4 hours (back and forth) to this place and I got a less than satisfactory haircut, with one side of my hair being uneven (looked inward) than the other side. With the tip I still paid about $60, but it was the amount of time / distance I drove to this place that got me really upset, all that effort for a bad hair cut. Word of advice for the owners, try to ask customers who they prefer when making an appointment, explain that Jimmy is the less experienced one, don't automatically give non-Korean speakers to Jimmy. I wish I had the choice of going with one of the owners and I would've been happy to wait for them or pay a little more for a more professional haircut. read more

Jay and Jenny are power couple managing this place. Their stylists also rock as well as the ladies in charge of the wash especially one of the latter gives me a combo massage. Jay got serious skills for haircuts and Heejin for balayage. I've been coming here for maybe 5 years now and I would say it's one of my happy places. Protip: Never go to any place without someone recommending you. This place is stellar and the same experience goes for those I've referred to this salon. read more

Had more than positively exceeding experiences here at Hidy Hair. I've gotten a straight perm, perm, and hair cut here and never been disappointed. Previously my straight perm lasted up to a year and a few months and I've gotten a regular curly perm which has also lasted me a year. Received a lot of compliments for my perm and found that my perm held up and consistently maintained its shape. Again this is my own experience and note all hair textures vary and differ when it comes to any type of perm or treatment. My stylist is Mirha and she is talented and extremely skilled with cutting and styling hair. She's also so sweet, takes her time, and has a good eye for detail. She's the one who did my perm back in October which currently is still looking great now! I would recommend checking Hidy Hair if you're looking for a new hair salon or need a new stylist. Mirha listens and doesn't try to take control over what you want for your hair. I've had times where I felt as if I didn't have any control or say over what I wanted especially in terms of my haircut. She also provided me with styling tips and gave me a quick tutorial and how to style my hair with a blow dryer. She's been super kind and sweet every visit and makes the experience incredibly comfortable. The salon took extra precaution with the current situation (required masks, took temperature, sanitized styling chair). Definitely would recommend calling ahead for an appointment and ask for Mirha! read more

This salon gave me the worst haircut I've had in a longest time. I wanted a simple layered haircut that was only up to my shoulders but the lady gave me a bob cut to my chin instead. I also said I wanted full bangs but she cut a portion of my hair which sits awkwardly to the side of my face. Never once did she ask where I part my hair and instead parted it where she wanted to. She didn't even blow dry my hair properly and my hair looked like a flat less pancake afterwards. For $45 I would expect more professional results but I've gotten better results at a salon school for $10. FYI, they give you a discount if you leave a review on yelp, hence all the beaming "5-star" reviews. read more

Would not recommend for thick curly hair. Hair dresser completely chopped 3/4 of my hair off when all I wanted was a slight hair thinning cut read more

5 star Hospitality 1 star style Showed the photos multiple times to the stylist and emphasized the style I want but received the one which is totally diff from what I expected. Tried to go this new place since I typically went to Manhattan to style my hair but the quality is hmm really different give the price are actually similar Very disappointed read more

I have been coming here for perm with Jade for years. He is the best hair stylist to treat my hair. Occasionally, I went to other salons in the neighborhood. But the perm didn't last long and I had to come back to Jade to fix read more

Tried out Hidy based on the good reviews. Showed up half an hour early for my appointment and they took me early. Probably helped that I did not have a specific request for a stylist. I'm the type of girl that just wants to look good with minimal maintenance. I didn't get my stylist's name, but she spent about an hour on my hair, trimming and layering - even had me stand up at one point so she can check the ends and work on it more meticulously. I like that she didn't rush through my cut, even though it's very basic compared to other requests. Only bummer is that I was growing out my bangs because I didn't want to trim them anymore, so I told her not to touch them, but she cut them anyway. I'm just going to chalk that one up to miscommunication. About $50 for cut and wash, blow-dry, tax and tip. Pretty happy with the place and will try it again. read more

1. The guy who cut my hair also cut another customer's hair at the same time. 2. 4 people blow dry my hair one by one while I was waiting the guy cutting my my neighbor's hair. (He cut both of ours hair at the same time) 3. The line of my hair is supposed on my right, he keeps cutting it in the opposite side till I stopped him. 4. He didn't show me the edge the hair on my back before doing the finishing curling. 5. They also mess up my mom's hair. ( the girl who cut my mom's hair dig a "whole" right on the top, she covered it with blow dryer) We found out when we got home. 6. Charged us $110 for a horrible experience. I just want to cry. Pro: 1.they cut your hair really quick at least. Lol 2.Easy to get an appointment. Of course, they will rush rush and rush. read more

It's probably a month after Jay (the owner) cut my hair and I still love the cut and the compliments I get on the cut. Another place that I just found out about through my sister and her friend that I kick myself for not coming to sooner. Jay gets my hair ... he took the time to assess it both wet and dry. I was a little scared that he was cutting too many layers but my hair looks fuller and is much more manageable now. He cut the layers underneath and my hair still has that long flowy look. $40 .... bargain! His assistant Miyoung (sp?) is very sweet and will finish your appointment with a styling (so plan on coming here before going out!). We booked a couple weeks in advance so that we could get back to back appointments for my 3 yo niece, sis (highlights) and me. There are parking meters out front so bring quarters. The staff at Hidy offered to put quarters in the meters while we were in the chairs, which I thought was really nice. There is a Dunkin Donuts next door for iced coffee. I am debating whether or not to get a digital perm, but if I do, I will get it done at Hidy. I like this place a lot. read more

Yes... I still go to the best hair designer in the area-- Jay2. After months of magic straight perm and steam perm for curling on bottom part of my hair, I noticed that the bottom part of my hair was getting very dry. If you have hair problems, Jay2 has an answer for you. He recommended that I get "Ruby" hair treatment. Sounds odd, right? He explained that it's some sort of purified water?? that's suppose to make your hair super soft. It's been week 3 and my hair is still in perfect shape. None of that dry hair. I can't go back to get the treatment done again. Next time around he explained that I can get magic straight perm AND the treatment done at the same time. Money and time saved!!! WooHoo!!! What are you waiting for??? Go get the "Ruby" done!! read more

Came here to get a hair transformation with Jay and I am beyond pleased with the service. I decided to get a magic straight and cut my long, overly damaged hair. I haven't had short hair since I was a kid so I was really nervous with how things would turn out. But Jay counseled me on my hair and had amazing attention to details. Totally worth every penny spent here - he takes time with the cut and makes sure every strand is aligned. I'm leaving here super satisfied with my new, low maintenance hair. read more

Please do not go if you want a decent haircut and perm. With COVID, I did not go to my usual hair salon in the city. My sister saw the reviews and recommend this place since it is near my house. Last Saturday, I showed the picture of the hairstyle I wanted and asked them to pick the stylist who can do it. Unfortunately, I made a huge error believing them. The issues I have are: 1. The hair cut is messy with uneven layerings. The ends of my hair looks damaged after the cut. Note, I never dyed my hair my whole life so it is very healthy. 2. The perm. I asked for a little tighter perm than picture but she made it so tight that I have curls up to my roots; it was supposed to be wavy perm. And the chemicals seems to have damaged my hair and some strands on the back left corner of my head is gone; that area feels like short beard.... 3. The style overall is not even close to what I showed in the picture. The stylist looked at the picture twice for short moment and started doing my hair so quickly, almost rushed. I should've known but I wanted give a benefit of the doubt and waited till I take the first shower after the perm. And wow, I've never had such a bad hair cut and perm done in my life. And please note, I get my hair done at least 3 times a year and drastically change my hairstyle. Please heed my warnings and don't go. If you want to go, just do trimming and nothing more. Oh, my mother got her hair done too. She bleached her hair but her roots are still black. So don't bleach and/or dye your hair here. Please. I'm going to give a call tomorrow but will not go back even if they wish to fix the hair for me. I'm too scared to. read more

I had previously colored my hair with Heejin, but I got my hair straightened this time with Miyoung. They are both very good. My hair came out straight and very soft and smooth. I appreciated the extra effort and concern Miyoung showed for the dry damaged part of my hair- giving protein treatment to those parts prior to the magic straight. Two thumbs up! I still need to color my roots, but I'm pleased with the results today. I would give both Miyoung and Heejin 5 stars, but as far as the price goes, it's a little bit on the higher side than I would like (causing me to lower one star). However, to their defense, their prices are comparable to other places in Fort Lee. read more

I came back here after trying a few different places in the city after moving there. Such great service, hair styles, and price - highly recommend the owner/top stylist read more

HORRIBLE SKILLS. The male stylist named Jay left me with horrific haircut. I literally have patches on the back of my head. I have very short hair, like 3-4 inches- how could you mess this up?!?!?! And I showed the photos of styles I wanted. It was suppose to be just a trim! A TRIM! This shop offers 3% discount if the customer leaves photos and good reviews on social media- hence all the positive reviews on yelp. Smh* I am so disgusted at his skills. They had the nerve to charge me so much for this crappy haircut. I am beyond livid. This place needs to fire that male stylist. THIS WAS MY WORST EXPERIENCE AT A HAIR SALON AND WORST HAIRCUT OF MY LIFE. PLEASE GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. ANYWHERE BUT HERE. They're rude, have horrendous skills, and they don't listen to customers. read more

Just wanted a straight trim. Came out with a uneven hair cut in both sides with about an inch and a half in difference in length, which is huge. Got the most inexperienced guy cutting my hair for an hour. Never again. Good thing hair grows back. I'm not sure how this mediocre place got great reviews. read more

The only haircut I was ever happy with. This is my second time with Jae (whom I believe is the owner). I've gone to many, many hair salons. This is the only place where I feel like I'm being taken care of. Jae cut my hair, I had 3 people blow drying, and then afterwords, I had Jae and another help straighten my hair. The cut lasted for over an hour. I felt like a work of art in process. Jae is a perfectionist who knows his craft. It's a $50 haircut, but I would pay more than double for the cut I get. He's the only person where I can say, I got the haircut I wanted. My only qualm is, I want to work out after my haircut and I feel like it's such a waste to put it up in a ponytail. I can't wait until the next time I go back for another haircut. Jae is seriously, no doubt, the best!!! read more

I have been going to Hidy for couple years. I get my hair cut by Q and he really is the BOMB!! He is super nice and he understands how I want my hair cut/styled.

The first time I made a visit here was 10 years ago and have been going to have my hair done with Jay ever since. Wherever I go I receive many compliments and ask me where I get my hair done. After I got married, I introduced my husband and he has been a regular since then and that was 4 years ago. read more

I love this hair salon- I have been here 3 times- have received really wonderful service each time. The level of precision and care they take is great- $45 read more

I came to Hidy for the first time based on a tip from a total stranger who had a fabulous hairstyle. When I arrived, I met Jay. As other reviewers mentioned, he's a hair savior- I couldn't agree more! Jay first looked at my hair- up close, from a far, standing up, kneeling down. This guy knows what he's doing. He first cut my hair dry, then it was washed, blow dried, then cut some more. Jay was very precise with his cutting and used extreme precision and attention, something I've never gotten from a hair stylist before. I showed him a picture of what I wanted. He asked me questions and listened in detail to what I wanted. My hair came out exactly as I pictured, and for the first time in a long time, I did not leave a hair salon disappointed. Instead, I can't stop looking in the mirror and smiling. Thank you Jay. I will be back :) read more

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this salon. My hair is the perfect storm--thick, curly, and abundant. All throughout my life, I struggled to find a salon that really understood my hair. From trying salons all around Bergen County to trying bougie salons in NYC, I just could not find a place I was satisfied with. Cuts were okay at best, coloring was sloppy, and treatments were an absolute nightmare (and a waste of $$$)! Honestly, I don't blame them--my hair is a handful (or two). BUT. A few years ago, I stumbled upon Hidy Hair and have been hooked ever since. Jay (the owner) always takes the time to examine my hair thoroughly before doing anything. Afterward, he consults me with his own professional thoughts according to my plans for my hair. Here's an example: I came today hoping to get the Brazillian Keratin Treatment but was quickly shot down by Jay. Long story short, he explained that I would be wasting my money and that I would be 100% dissatisfied with the results. My hair is too strong and curly and thus, the treatment would last only for a (very) short period of time. I was sad but happy knowing he just saved me $300. You see, the stylists here are not only knowledgeable but also there to help you. Every time (literally every time) I leave the salon, I'm bombarded with compliments from friends and strangers alike! My preferred hair stylists are definitely Jay, the owner and Jay2. Please, if you're scared and scarred from bad experiences, try out Hidy Hair salon. You won't regret it. read more

I have not been happy about the status of my hair in years, until I completed my appointment at Hidy Hair Studio! I had high expectations because of all the raving reviews and a reccomendation, however the experience exceeded even that. I finally decided to put an end to my no-coloring hair streak due to an outstanding recommendation to Hidy and a little courage, and I am happy I did! I feel my look is so refresh and revived and I'm so excited to show it off. Heejin did an excellent job at listening to my request, and more, definitely found my stylist and hair salon Everyone there definitely knows how to treat their customers and just an overall great experience! read more

I've gone to get my hair cut by Jay three times so far. Previous to Jay, I had gone to the same hair stylist since middle school. When he moved to Korea, I had no idea where to go. I was a lost puppy with flat hair and crazy split ends. Then I remembered my hair stylist had worked at Hidy for a while, so I decided to look the place up on Yelp and Google. A lot of people kept mentioning Jay, so I finally made an appointment with him. Best decision I ever made. Jay is always open to pictures and hair cut ideas. He takes what you want and modifies it to fit you. When he thinks it's a bad idea, he'll tell you straight up that a certain cut or style won't look good on you. He also tries to cut your hair so that it looks good after a few months. One style looked so good three to four months later that people kept asking me if I had just gotten a haircut. I'd say go to Jay if you want to make sure you get a haircut you can feel good about when you walk out the door. A cut is around $45 for women. read more

I went to Hidy Hair tonight for a trim and luckily, got the pleasure of meeting and receiving Jay's services. It's true, he's definitely a legend and I can see why (just Google him). I was lucky that it was a Thursday night and pouring out - just walked in. I told him that I had been growing my hair out and to not use the feathering scissors/razors because my hair is extremely thin already. The last place in NJ totally botched it. Anyways, my ends were totally fried and my hair had been so thinned out it needed some serious work. They washed my hair, as usual, and he asked if I wanted it heavy or light. Heavy, of course. He did an excellent job at giving more weight using the dry-cut method, and without sacrificing too much length. Totally love this guy--think I've finally found a new stylist. Prices are average. $45 for a woman's wash and cut, tip excluded. Definitely will be back! I've tried about 3 other salons in NJ and this is the only place where the stylist actually LISTENED to what you did and didn't want. read more

Very bad service and skills. Very bad!!!!! They also charged me extra without explaining why. I asked politely and they gave me a "you should have known" attitude! No offense, the hairstylist, a lady, can't even speak or understand English... I was in a rush and the Japanese salon I planed to go was all booked. Only this place was so empty- guess that's why! I should have known better! I have no idea how did those good reviews come from. But me personally had a super unpleasant experience. Be careful. read more

Got my first digital perm here yesterday. I was nervous because I had been getting Brazilian Keratin to straighten my naturally frizzy hair but after 4 months it wears off and I am back to frizzhead. I read so many mixed reviews about digital perms, but I thought, what the heck, I'm going for it! So i made an appointment. Two women carefully analyzed my hair and asked about my history (what i had done to it in the past, what type of hair is it naturally, etc.) I showed them pictures of what type of curls i wanted and they couldn't promise me it would be that curly. I figured let me try anyway. They were so meticulous, thorough, and worked as a team, constantly checking on my hair during the 3-hour project. The results... Better than we expected! Hidy employees are honest, straightforward with the price, and put extra effort to make sure you get the best results possible. read more
