I have been going to Hitto on and off for 2 years and am happy with my experience. It's quick and efficient, which is great because I don't really care for the extra fluff at more expensive salons. I've mainly had Alex as my hairdresser, but the other ones are great too. Definitely recommend it. read more

We just moved to Durham from NY. I have always had a Korean hair stylist after having had too many unsatisfactory cuts from non-Asian hair stylists. So I researched into this and found Hitto Salon and read the reviews. Today my husband, son and I went. Alex cut my husband and me. He did a great job. My son was cut by another person and did an ok job. I think next time we will all have our cuts done by Alex. I definitely recommend Alex for Asian hair. read more

Love this place! Everyone is really nice and they even wash your hair. Alex is amazing. He knows how to cut Asian hair and he styles it perfectly! Recommend! read more

My friend recommended this place to me. Alex is a wonderful hairstyler. He did it very fast and my hair looked awesome!

Worst place to get haircut. I had to give one star but I would not give even a single to this place. Treat their customers really bad. There was a young man who was going to cut my hair, even though I asked for an appointment with Alex. I just happened to ask the young man if he was a trainee. He spoke so rudely because I asked him that and left a huge chunk of my hair that was not cut. I happened to notice it after coming home. I did not want to go back and waste my time. Never going back. Worst and dirty place. read more

I came in around in Saturday afternoon around 4:30 PM for my haircut appointment. When I walked into the door, there was no one to greet me; so I felt lost and confused. I had to wait almost an hour before I even got greeted and helped. I was overall satisfied with the result of my haircut. I paid $35 for my haircut, which is more than what I paid before. read more

I myself have been coming here for my hair cut for a few years. Alex does a good job and i highly recommend him.

I've been coming to Hitto salon for my hair cuts, hair colors, and my husband's hair cut for the past two years now, and Alex has never disappointed us, the service is great and efficient, and the price is very reasonable as well, strongly recommend! read more

I searched for months for a regular hair stylist that could give me simple yet stylish, reasonably priced, and consistent haircuts. Alex is fantastic at what he does; I've never been happier with a stylist. My only regret is that I will be moving next year and will have to find a new one! read more

Omggggg! Best salon visit ever!!!! I just left from seeing Alex at Hitto salon. My ombre came out beautiful. He told me that my hair was very dark, and it might not change the color that I wanted, but it still came out flawless! thanks Alex for my new look.. I will be recommending you to everyone I know read more

Very happy with haircut. Alex is very personable. Reasonable price. Would recommend and will go to again.

great experience here- all the staff are friendly, prices are reasonable, and the place is clean. Extremely pleased with my hair cut - executed even better than I had envisioned! Recommending to all I know. read more

I have to say that the past few times here have been a disappointment. Before getting to the actual haircut quality, the appointment system is so disorganized. I usually call a few days in advance to set up an appointment with Alex because that's who I trusted. In my previous appointment, I was seated 10 min past my scheduled time and someone other than Alex started cutting my hair. I stopped him and said my appointment was with Alex. I then had to wait another 30 min for Alex to finish up his previous client. The most recent time, I again had to wait well past my scheduled appointment time. I asked for my usual cut which is layers and bang trim, but there isn't any trace of layers at all. It looks like one clean cut and it's a very awkward length that doesn't suit me. The hair dryer he used was SO hot it felt like my skin was going to burn. I think I will be switching to a different salon; it feels like since the stylist knows I am a regular he feels he doesn't need to do as good of a job to maintain my business. read more

Great hair cuts! I have been in the triangle for a long time and always had trouble finding a good stylist for my long Asian hair. Alex is very amiable and the service is great! read more

I got to my appt but had to wait almost 30 minutes before I was seen. When I made the appointment for coloring and a haircut, they told me Alex would be taking care of me. But he was taking walk-in customers as I waited. Apparently, he only does the haircuts, not the coloring. His assistant did my highlights. She was nice but very inexperienced. I came home $135 less, with bad highlights (very patchy coloring and brittle). Also, I asked beforehand whether highlights would cover the little gray I had. If not I'd prefer all over coloring. I was told yes. I asked again throughout to please take care of my gray hairs. I was assured yes, they are covered. I came home and looked in my mirror-- the grays were all still there. read more

Had a haircut couple of months back over here. It was fab! Loved the cut and styling. Will definitely be booking my next appointment soon ;)

The price was great, the salon clean, colorist awesome and got a stellar edgy cut from Andy the owner. Really great experience.

My hair was really fuzzy and had damaged/split ends. After the Japanese hair straightening, my hair really silky and smooth. I also did a color retouch. It was a good experience. Alex who did my hair is a excellent styler. I will definitely go back and recommend this place to my friend. read more

I've had better. I'm Asian but I have very wavy, voluminous, some-would-say-frizzy hair. Thus, it needs to be thinned out a LOT during haircuts. The actual haircut (done by Alex) was okay, with 2 complaints: the layers were choppy and not well blended, and my hair was not thinned out enough. The girl who styled my hair tried very hard but seemed somewhat inexperienced. Trying to blowdry hair like mine straight with subtle curls at the bottom simply does not work. You have to straighten it with a flat iron. After a while, she gave up and Alex fixed the styling and thinned my hair a bit more (but still not enough). Overall, it wasn't a disaster, but I'll probably try to get my hair cut back at home from now on. read more

Well, Alex is a super hairdresser! I have seen him since he moved to NC from NYC for the past 6 or 7 years. I would not go to anyone else! I am a Chinese lady and when I first moved here many years ago, I had a very hard time looking for a hairdresser who would provide great service and in particular who knows how to care of Asian hair style and hair type, etc. He's knows how to cut layers and not afraid to tackle new styles! I am hesitate to further recommend him to more people because I feel a bit selfish and not to make him too popular and keep him all for myself :-) But I have to tell the truth when it comes to writing review (which I don't write much). Remember NOT to go there on Saturday which is the busiest time of the week! I sometimes just visit him during lunch time at his Avent Ferry shop (yes, he's so popular now, he has two shops and he hire very good qualified hair dresser to work for him too!) I remember in some other American hairstylist shops, they rate their hair dressers for different skills to commend for different prices, I believe he's asking for a very reasonable price for a super MASTER skills! He could really charge a lot more if he wants based on his skills. But he's very reasonable person! Check out his web site at http://www.hittosalon.com/ read more

Horrible service. Would not recommend at all. Specifically asked for Alex and was given an appointment but some other guy ended up cutting my hair. No explanation was offered whatsoever. Even charged extra for a bad job. Don't waste your money here. read more

Alex is my life saver!! I have very thick, heavy, and extremely frizzy hair, so I have to do the Hair Straightening at least once per year. It used to take me more than 5 hours for a hair treatment, but Alex did it within 2.5 hours, and it was perfect! Already recommended him to all my friends. Definitely will be back! read more

It is a wonderful place to do hair cut and style d sign. The staff there are very nice and professional!

This place RUINED my hair. It's over-processed and the color has been leaking from it. The service was unprofessional and they don't even serve decent coffee. Do not come here! read more

Great salon in the burbs of Cary. Located near Neo-Asia and a FedEx store, so you can hook onto wireless from there. I have been to this place twice and was satisfied each time w/the cut and perm. Really got a lot of compliments from my friends. The stylist works quickly and efficiently and is friendly, professional. I really recommend this place. They also have complimentary coffee and tea, and great magazines to read! Better to get an appt. since they are often busy. read more

I have been going to this salon for 5 years and have always had a great experience. I usually get the Japanese straight perm, which I first found out about from Hitto. It does a great job relaxing my frizzy hair and lasts a really long time. Alex and the entire staff are always very friendly. I will keep going here to get my hair done as long as they are there! read more

I found Alex after a few failures at other salons to find a stylist that could work with Asian hair (including Blo Salon). I have now been going to him for 3+ years. He does work lightening fast, as another reviewer commented, and does a great job. He recently helped me donate my hair and gave me a whole new look. The low lights he gives me always looks natural. I've been getting compliments by strangers, friends alike. He is trained in Japanese hair cutting style, and this is what I've been looking for. I also send my Indian friends to him for the Japanese straightening, which they love. I wouldn't entrust my hair with anyone else around Cary. read more

Love getting haircuts from alex! Best person ive found so far. (Fyi im an asian male)

Great place for styling. Amazing service! Strongly recommend Alex. I went in to have my hair cut short for a fresh look. Alex helped me style and did a great job! read more

I cannot say enough about how wonderful Hitto Salon is! I lived in NYC and would get my hair chemically straightened there. When I moved to NC I went to Hitto on a whim and have been going there ever since (About twice a year for the past three years). Not only do they do an incredible job it takes half the time (about 2-2.5 hours). Alex is amazing and today straightened my hair and fixed a horrible haircut I got last week. I am extremely grateful and would recommend Hitto to anyone! read more

It is just ok. As a matter of fact, Alex's cutting technique, or styling is somewhat outdated. If you are there for the same old look you have always had for the past ten years, then it is the place to go, he is not going to mess it up. But if you want a change for a more modern, chic, and more "in" hair dos, try somewhere else. I wanted something refresh and a little different, and I was definitely disappointed. I waiting for for my hair to grew out to I get get it fixed, somewhere else. read more

Love Alex! While living in the RDU area, he was the only person who I would even let near my thick asian hair. Cuts it beautifully every time and it's inexpensive. I would give the salon 5 stars, but like other reviewers mentioned, his 2 assistants are pretty clueless and have no idea what they are doing. Alex used to be a one man show, but I guess he has gotten so busy over the years that he needed the extra hands. Hope Alex eventually finds staff members who have the skill set to represent his quality of work. Until then, those girls can wash my hair, but Alex is the only one coming close with a pair of scissors. read more

This place is great!! I got the Japanese straightening treatment about a year ago and just went back to get it touched up because Alex did such a good job on it the last time. The people here are very friendly. Would definitely recommend coming here for the Japanese straightening treatment for anyone that wants straight, shiny hair! read more

Alex consistently gives fantastic haircuts. Definitely one of the best hair stylists in the triangle, especially for Asian hair.

Terrible service and hair came out really bad. I would not recommend this place at all.

Went in to get a haircut with Alex and within minutes he knew what I wanted and executed my vision perfectly. He's very personable and professional. He definitely knows what he's doing. I am usually kind of picky with my hair but this is one of the best haircuts I've gotten in a long time. Only cost $35 to cut my hair which isn't bad at all compared to other local salons. Would definitely recommend and will be going back. read more

Before Hitto, I was getting haircuts at white barber shops but they didn't understand the texture of Asian hair. I started going coming to Hitto about a year ago and Alex serves me up right every time. My hair is very coarse and hard to cut, but he know his stuff and does an awesome job. Gave me a cut right before my first interview for a consulting firm up in NYC and I got the job! Come to Alex if you want to look good, feel good, play good. read more

Good place to get a hair cut for Asian hair. I would recommend Namun. I have hair that has soft curls and she helped to layer my hair and gave tips on styling. read more

Well I am reviewing about 2 years late but oh well. So I decided to be dumb and do all over bleach... BAD Idea. I am a natural red head and the person who did it ended making me look like a pumpkin. I then tried to "fix" the color with box dye... it took me a few tries to get a color I was ok with. By the time I fixed my color my hair was FRIED! It looked and felt HORRIBLE! So I found Hitto Salon... thank goodness! I got the Japanese Straightening treatment! It was amazing. My hair was soooo soft and so straight! IF you don't like your hair straight then it's not for you but I have very thick, messy, "body waves"... not the pretty kind either. I don't remember the guys name who did my hair but he was awesome. I use to have to straighten my hair any time i went in public but after he fixed it i could wash and wear! So much easier! Yes it is pricey but it's just as pricey as most people charge for Keratin Treatment that doesn't last near as long.... read more

I was told to go check out the salon Hitto from a friend and they recommended Ruthie as the stylist. I was a bit nervous and cautious going in, because I am EXTREMELY picky with my hair and barely let anyone touch it. I received an awesome cut and Ruthie recommended a bold color that I had never tried before. I left so happy, I almost cried! Ruthie is now my stylist for life! Love her read more
