Katie at J Bangs is the only stylist that I trust with my blonde hair in Nashville! I've tried a million salons in Nashville over the years! She nails my blonde color and cut every time! She is so kind, personable, and always takes her time to offer me hair advice. I've also seen a few other stylists at J Bangs when I needed to get in at the last moment and they have all been fantastic. Thank you Katie for another gorgeous blow out, cut and color!! read more

Finally got one decent haircut here after 3 people. Scheduled late in the evening specifically with the same person. He comes by and says the person that cut my hair the first time will be doing it. Once again. Terrible haircut. She's very pleasant but scheduled with a specific person for a reason Will not come back and would avoid this place if I were you read more

The people are very nice; the salon is beautiful and clean; the haircuts I got there were good. Do *not* go here for Japanese hair straightening (Yuko). I had 3-4 expensive Japanese hair straightening treatments there over a year and a half, and at first I wasn't sure, but after an August 2023 appointment I realized they damaged my hair. Past hair straightening treatments left my hair sleek, straight, shiny, and strong; J Bangs' treatment left it straight but bushy, coarse like hay, and very slow to dry. It will take me about a year to regrow my hair and recover. Normal haircuts and other services there are probably fine - just don't do Japanese hair straightening! Not worth the trouble and expense. read more

I'm new in town, just got my haircut with EC. He listened to me and gave me what I wanted. I made another appointment in 4 weeks. I'm so excited , it doesn't always go this well. Thank You, EC !! From your new BFF, Mary! read more

Heather is AMAZING! She's a master with cut and color, and great for blonde! Everyone at this salon is beyond sweet! Fantastic experience! read more

See all

Julie at J Bangs Salon Green Hills is more than a stylist. She understands your face shape and hair type to create a look that compliments your natural features. She is also honest about what looks good and will offer recommendations to create the latest style that matches your personality. Julie has been my stylist for 3+ years and I highly recommend her. She is truly talented, professional, and hospitable. I always feel welcome at J Bangs. Thanks, Julie, for always helping me look my best. read more

Julie is amazing! She is an incredible stylist and will do what you want. Shewill gives input if you ask and will do what is best for your face shape. Sometimes I like spontaniety while other times, I just want a trim. I have straight black hair and Julie knows how to layer them to give it the volume that I need. I work a lot so I can't have a high maintenance hairstyle. I'm planning to cut my hair again for Locks of Love once I have 20 inches to cut off and can't wait to ask Julie! I've seen other customers come in with terrible days or going through rough patches in their lives and J.Bangs provides them with that extra pep that they need. The salon is great and I would recommend this to anyone who wants to leave feeling attended to and great! read more

Recently my stylist I had been going to for a very long time retired. I was happy for her but really clueless about a new stylist. I tried a few and was very disappointed. Then I was referred to Mandy Harmon at JBangs. From the first appointment with Mandy to right now I have been very pleased. I get non-stop compliments on my hair. I get such great results because Mandy is very skilled, but even a skilled stylist will not make you happy if she does not listen to you. Mandy is the best at listening and translating what you are saying into exactly what you want. She does not make judgments about what you want. If you want something a lot of stylists think is not trendy and current, Mandy will give you what you want without judgment. Same with the trendy and current. If that is what you want, that is what you get. No judgment. I love that about Mandy. She does my hair color beautifully. If you ask for a tweak here or there, no problem. My hair always looks awesome when I walk out the door. Mandy can cut beautifully, mix some beautiful color, and she does the best blowout I have ever had. And I love the salon. It just has good vibes. read more

It pains me to write this review of J Bangs................ My first visit to J Bangs was very pleasant. I have a very challenging work schedule and often cannot schedule a hair appointment until 2-3 days prior. When I called J Bangs they set me up right away with a very talented colorist. When I got home it wasn't the color I wanted (much darker than I was used to). So I called to see if they correct it. My second visit was also very nice and professional and they didn't charge me for the correction. The reason I can only give 3 stars is because of my attempt at a third visit. They could not get me in for another 2 weeks. I understand that they are very busy but I had told them on my first visit that my work schedule didn't allow me to make appointments far in advance. They told me no problem. I even gave them my name and number and asked that the colorist call me if anything opened up. A shame but I won't be going back.... read more

I paid $350 for a Keratin straightening treatment at J Bangs and I'm not sure it was worth it. My hair is not smooth and glossy. It's just kind of dull with texture, like I tried to straighten it at home and then walked out in the humidity. The stylist also cut my hair dry, leaving lots of blunt, blocky pieces. Including the gratuity, $400 is a lot of money for a service that I am not completely satisfied with. Also, the shampoo guy, who looked like Billy Joe from Green Day with sleeve tattoos, dropped the shampoo bottle on my head. Ouch! read more

I went here and wanted a Keratin straightening treatment. The stylist and everyone else were super duper nice hence the stars given, but my keratin did not even last 1 wash! I paid $500+ for this service and it only last 48 hours. Super dissatisfied and disappointed honestly because when I left the salon my hair looked amazing and exactly like what I wanted, but 48 hours and first wash with sulfate-free shampoo it was completely washed out. SOOO SAD! :( I do NOT plan on returning. read more

Wayne is awesome. He is the first stylist in 8 years that has gotten my color (blonde) right! He listens to you but will also give his input on what he thinks will look good. Make sure you block off some time though because he is very thorough!! The salon itself is beautiful and has a really great energy about it. It has really great natural light and I always feel beautiful when I leave! read more

J.Bangs has a lovely environment and it is covertly located. I would say they were ok. Zach is amazing! I have been seeing him for a couple years now and he always gets it right. I change my style and color and he goes with it and always gets it right. He is smart, funny and great at his job. read more

I just realized I needed to update--I no longer go to J. Bangs because my stylist, Morgan, left to open her own place. And, as I'm loyal to stylists and not salons, had to say sayonara to J.B. As far as I know, it's still a good place to go though. Convenient if you are in the Green Hills (Hillsboro Road) area and I'm pretty sure they take walk-ins. read more

I've been going to Amanda at J Bangs for a year and a half now and I can't recommend her or this salon enough! I am notorious for always wanting to change up my hair color or cut at every appointment, and she always has a great idea, or brings my wild ideas back down to earth (because I can't always get that exact cut I see on Pinterest with my hair type). She has done balayage, long cuts, short cuts, deep purples underneath and the best blonde highlights I have ever had (I've stuck with the same color for at least three appointments now). I get compliments about my color all the time! The salon is very nice, casual, clean and comfortable. They also have a pedicure chair and manicurist. For a Green Hills location, the parking is usually pretty easy as well. Go to J Bangs and get an appointment with Amanda. You will not be disappointed! read more

I'm particularly difficult to please when it comes to my cut and color. I was frustrated with spending large amounts of money and several hours at salons only to walk out feeling "okay" about my hair. As a result, I've bounced around for years and I can't remember the last time I went back for a cut from the same person twice. After leaving J. bangs, for the first time in a long time I was excited with the results of my money and my time. The wait times on getting an appointment are pretty reasonable considering it's a salon, not a GreatClips. Don't expect to get an appointment a few days out, but I've never had an issue getting in within 1.5 - 2 weeks. The staff is always extremely friendly and polite and I feel that my stylist takes a lot of time to really understand what I want, but also makes suggestions based on what would look best on me. I found that to be missing most other places. They want you to know what you want before you get there. At J. bangs they will help you figure it out! I love my hair again and I get a lot of compliments on it (because it's the right fit for me thanks to my stylist). I've even had several people ask where I get it done! The salon is a little pricier, but that's to be expected in Green Hills. read more

Terrible! I paid well above $300 for a Brazilian blowout that did not last 2weeks. During the process, I even questioned was it a true one as the technique was so different from all the ones previously done elsewhere. Friendly, nice salon, but ripping off customers is not nice nor friendly. read more

Visited June Arnold at J. Bang's last week for the first time and had a great, initial experience. The salon gets a B- and June got an A+ in my book. She took the time to assess my needs and desires and didn't nickel and dime me on products and services. I will definitely return. read more

Ahh this place is lovely. I called for a last minute appointment and the owner made time in her schedule for me. Easy going, bright and airy atmosphere, easy parking, knowledgeable and listened to exactly what I wanted. Yummy strong coffee, great products, not pushy at all, and did exactly what I wanted. Would highly recommend. Thanks! read more

As a special treat to myself I had Jenn do a straightening treatment on my hair. So worth it! My hair has been a mess in the weather and the treatment made it shiny and frizz free, eliminating my get-ready time (which is good because I hate spending time getting ready). Ladies, do yourself a favor and try this!! read more

I rarely give reviews, please allow me to begin there. I don't give negative reviews, only positive reviews IF I discover a service or product that is so outstanding that I feel compelled to let others know--which brings me back to the reason for this review. I've used Dreamcatchers extensions for many years. My own hair is (now) as long as the extensions I use, but I love the volume and find them SO easy to style and use (IF they are implemented correctly) that I choose not to give them up! I've had them implemented and adjusted in many great cities and at many great salons--successfully!! Nashville is an awesome city, make no mistake. But I've had a hard time finding a SUPERIOR salon, an AWESOME stylist, an EXCELLENT colorist and a GREAT stylist that can DO extensions properly. It's been a continued struggle--to the point where I've been asking around for recommendations and I never hear the same stylist or salon recommended to me more than once. THE "SEARCH" became nothing but a huge potpourri of "maybes" and a WHOLE lot of "disappointments." And let's remember: it's MY hair, time and money being utilized and often wasted as I try place after place, stylist after stylist....on and on. And this cycle went on to the point that, sadly, on many occasions, I've flown to other cities to get the job done and done correctly. But that routine gets old and very quickly. FINALLY! I have found a superb salon with regard to service: J.bangs in Green Hills. A lovely salon WITH stylists that KNOW what they are doing, which is just the most amazing concept! I highly recommend this salon and, specifically, with regard to extension implementation, color or cut I highly recommend you save yourself ANY and ALL frustration and see Jen Neu at J.bangs Salon. I only wish I had found her much, much earlier/sooner! Further, it is my hope that this review will help anyone reading this to avoid a potential hair disaster and allow them to simply get the job done correctly the first time with Jen at J.bangs! And you don't even have to walk in with any fear or trepidation over IF she will do a good job. She will do an awesome job! You can count on it. I DO. And it is a relief to have someone you can trust, count on and believe in. I'm sure many of you can relate to that. The salon is top-notch, as is she, and I AM telling people, as people do ask me, when they ask, about Jen Nue and J.bangs. AND I am sharing this review in the event you are, as I WAS, seeking to get off the merry-go-round (more like The Scrambler!) of poor service, poor knowledge, continual disappointment and also away from the horrible feeling of someone else screwing up and setting you back as you seek to grow and take care of your hair. Jen Neu and J.bangs!! The BEST in the Nashville area in over a decade search! read more

Zach is great. Got a bad haircut from another salon so i came here to get it fixed. I highly recommend Zach!

About the worst customer service in the business. Don't know how they stay in business. Don't count on them for anything if you are not pleased. They could care less. I've tried to reach one of the owners for days and not as much as a phone call in return. Thumbs down for an owner that does not care about their clients. read more

I got my hair cut here once two years ago after getting a groupon type deal. The management was very nice and the experience overall was pleasant. However, unfortunately I received one of the worst haircuts I've ever gotten. I don't remember the woman's name but she did a really terrible job of giving my short, straight hair a simple trim and I ended up having to get it fixed somewhere else. She was also oddly quiet and unfriendly until the end when I think she noticed I wasn't happy, and started being friendlier. I feel bad giving this review when I was there so long ago -- hopefully this woman isn't even there anymore. But I think that if this salon wants to gain more clients (as I recall it was new when I went) they should focus on getting professionals to work for them, because this woman clearly wasn't. I would recommend making sure you get a well reviewed stylist if you plan on going here -- don't just go to anyone like I did. read more

My daughter's Wedding Party was catered to at JBangs last weekend. Starting with the lovely breakfast, and ending with each Lady Loving the style your staff freely created. Each hair style, an individual one. I highly recommend your Salon. You are a Find, for anyone looking for a top notch Salon in the Nashville area. read more

I love J Bangs Salon! Great, hip and everyone is fantastic. Mandy IS THE BOMB! She is a master Paul Mitchell colorist who is a true artist. Her blow-outs are AWESOME! And the girl knows how to cut hair. Tina is also wonderful- she does incredible manicures and all types of nails. Would not think of going anywhere else! read more

Actually the new J Bangs deserves six stars! I am very particular--about everything--and this salon has it all: stylists with skill and taste; furnishings that are chic, comfy, and immaculate; a welcoming atmosphere with FREE Steadfast coffee; great prices, great reception staff that make making an appointment easy; a VIP room for whenever you want or need privacy, and my favorite Bumble and Bumble products. My career lands me on television on occasion and sometimes in magazines. I count on Julie (co-owner with her mother Deb) Mahler for cut, color, blow-outs and makeup. Julie makes sure everyone at JBangs keeps up with classes and approaches each client with respect and a keen eye for aesthetic detail. JBangs is a no-drama zone. Though you sometimes see a face that you will also see on the Opry stage or the symphony orchestra stage this is a friendly salon--that treats everyone like SOMEONE! read more
