I'm delighted with my hair. I am a NEW, New Bernian in search of a new hair salon and stylist. After my online hair consultation, and a conversation with Jenna their Client Coordinator I was assigned to Chelsea, their Junior Stylist. I arrived about 10 minutes before about my appointment and was able to park right in front of the salon. I was greeted warmly by Jenna upon arrival when I checked in. My hair was in pretty rough shape, and Chelsea and I discussed what I requested ( at length) and gave me her recommendations as soon as I sat in her chair. What a lovely young lady she is. She did a remarkable job considering what she had to work with ( I had not done my hair for almost a full year). She is polite, professional, kind l, patient and competent. I will be back in July and look forward to building a relationship with her as my new stylist and Magnolia Jane as my new salon. read more

I had a cut with Norah, who I would not recommend. She tried to cut my hair and basically charged me 48.00 to nick my hair. She was polite and had me come back to "cut" my hair. What a huge mistake..uneven and cut my left side and didn't match the right side of my hair. My apologies, but she did an absolutely horrible job with my hair. I would never let her near my hair again. Had to travel back to Maryland for a real experienced styles to fix her mistakes...sorry, never again. read more

I cannot recommend Magnolia Jane Salon enough! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and absolutely beautiful--stylish yet comfortable, with such a relaxing vibe. My stylist, Kai, was nothing short of amazing. He took the time to really listen to what I wanted, asked thoughtful questions about my hair routine, and gave me expert advice without ever making me feel pressured. His attention to detail and skill are truly unmatched--my cut/color turned out even better than I could have imagined. I left feeling confident, refreshed, and completely pampered. On top of that, Kai is just a joy to be around--professional, friendly, and so talented. You can tell he genuinely cares about his clients and takes pride in his work. If you're looking for a salon where you'll be treated like royalty and walk out looking your absolute best, Magnolia Jane Salon is the place to go. Ask for Kai--you'll be in the best hands! read more

One of the hardest transitions with my move from center city Philadelphia back to NC was leaving my extraordinary hair stylist. Not just anyone can cut short hair but after a 2 year search I found George! He is the master of short haircuts and worth my two plus hour drive to New Bern to get my hair cut! read more

I am so thankful I found Laura! We have lived in New Bern less than a year. Trying to find a new stylist that you can trust is not always easy. She did such an amazing job on my hair. Thank you, Laura! read more

I was about 6 months past the point where you say "I can't go another day without a haircut" when I searched Yelp for a safe option for a haircut. Lucky me, Magnolia was already five stars AND they had clearly listed their Covid protocol on Yelp and their website. Even then, there was a reason why I let my hair get to the point where it only belonged in a bun- so I called to question them further. They were so friendly and calming from the second they picked up the phone, to when I walked out of the salon. There was only myself and one other client in the studio when I was there. They checked my temperature and had hand sanitizer everywhere. Everyone was wearing masks, the door was open to let fresh air in. I left feeling lighter, minus 3 inches- but my wallet still felt pretty heavy because the price was as reasonable as they come. read more

I honestly haven't been able to get a good haircut in this town until I went to Magnolia Jane Salon. I usually waited until I traveled to get a haircut. I haven't traveled in a while, so my hair went from too long to ridiculously too long. Thankfully, a spot opened up and Lianna did a masterful job of taking the crazy mop on my head and turning it into not just exactly what I wanted, but better than expected! She took her time and made sure every detail was correct. The environment in the salon is pristine clean, beautiful and cozy. I am thankful to have found this place and will definitely be returning. HIGHLY recommended! read more

Oh my.... Can I tell you how wonderful this place is?! To know me, you know that my hair means a great deal to me and to find someone who will take special care of my tresses is a feat in itself as I have been burned many times. I recently moved to Beaufort and having previously gone to an Aveda salon, I had a difficult time finding one Down East. I went a few months box dying my hair (I know, I know) and just when I thought I'd have to trek back to Raleigh for hair services, I found Magnolia Jane Salon on Instagram. My hair was damaged to say the least, and in desperate need of loving. I went to see Lauren for a consult and showed her some pics of a change I was thinking about and she told me what she could do and reassured me that all was going to be ok. Next was the appointment, it was with Holly. She and Lauren went over the notes from our consult and she began to help me with my transition. Holly was ah-mazing and explained everything along the way, asking me lots of questions about my thoughts and how I would like to care for my hair, would I style it, wear it up or down, etc. Once she was finished, I felt like a new woman! I had color correction, and a haircut and I could not be happier with the results! If you are someone who cares deeply about the love of your hair, d yourself a favor and make an appointment with Magnolia Jane Salon. Another bonus, you can book online! read more

Went in yesterday for a haircut with Alyssa and am very pleased!! The environment was very calm and relaxed but not snobby like some salons.

They also offer complimentary bang trims when you go back :) would definitely recommend! read more

I am so thrilled I found this salon! Maggie was my stylist and listened to all my concerns about my hair and worked her magic. She exceeded my expectations and gave me exactly what I wanted!!! The salon was clean and so welcoming. The receptionist made me feel comfortable from the moment I walked in and offered me something to drink as well which I thought was really nice. I will definitely only be coming here from now on! read more

The book online option is amazing and what made me book my wife's appointment here!! Jessica cut her hair and did a great job! She feltcomfortable and said the atmosphere was perfect! read more

Anne Lane has been styling my hair for over a decade. I even make the trip down from Charlotte to get it done. She is extremely knowledgeable, stays current on all the hair trends (and can help you get there in a way that keeps your hair healthy and looking fabulous!) She is friendly, personable and has a great attitude towards her clients! I honestly cannot recommend her any more highly! read more

Ask for Tia omg she knew exactly what I needed and I'm not easily opened to anyone touching my hair and I have to admit I was really nervous watching her different style of application. But I am super satisfied and the best part is that the salon is 10 min from my house. I use to drive an hr away! read more

I love this hair salon!!! I'm new in town I was recommended by my mother in law and I loved the place and the staff. The place is clean, in the heart of downtown New Bern. Brooklyn did a perfect job!! I would def come back. read more

Laura and the girls are amazing here! So professional and friendly. They rescued my hair from a chop job I received at another salon and made me feel beautiful in my moments of vulnerability. I will continue to drive 45 minutes just so I can have my hair done at Magnolia Jane. I couldn't recommend anywhere more!!! read more

I was so happy to find this place. Since moving here I struggled to find a salon that I was happy with. This place is clean, the employees are professionals and they also offer a great line of products to purchase. Lexi is a wonderful stylist and I highly recommend her. She is patient and takes her time and she knows what she is doing. She fixed my ugly brassy yellow blonde done by another salon and I feel so much better about myself now. read more

This salon is trendy and stylish, as are all the hair dressers who work their magic here. Laura Ann is my stylist and she never lets me down. I'm a bit funky and like a playful hairstyle and color so I need someone who's just as out of the box as I am. read more

Laura is a wonderful stylist! That is the key word- stylist. There are very few of those around anymore. I can't tell you amount of times I have tried to get a "blowout" to have people in this area not know what that means! No, I don't want keratin treatment! i want someone to blow dry my hair- with a round brush- not a flat iron! She understands the latest styles and trends and is a wonderful human being! read more

Love the atmosphere and my stylist who is unfortunately no longer there but working at a salon in Charlotte! Either way, easy to make an appointment, easy to cancel or reschedule is necessary. read more

As my husband and I were wandering around New Bern, we just popped in on a whim as I needed a little trim. We walked through the door into a fresh, open, modern salon. The owner was so friendly and accommodating. I just wanted a little trim for my pixie cut and Laura took it from there. She made me feel like a million bucks. My husband said it never looked better. Such a lovely place, lovely owner. read more

Just moved here and eager to find my next hair salon...this is it!! Emilee did a fantastic job on my eyebrows (waxing and tinting) and Jessica took care of my neglected hair color and brought it back to something beautiful! These ladies were wonderful and did a great job. The salon is clean, quiet, and classy. If you are use to a salon where people are knowledgeable and make you feel pampered, then this place is for you! Easy to book appointments, everyone I spoke to over the phone and in person was friendly and helpful! I will definitely be back! read more

We moved to New Bern from Chicago 6 months and two really bad haircuts ago , 5 if you count my husband. I had just about given hope until a friend recommended Caslyn at Magnolia Janes. My hair is not really that difficult to cut but it definitely needs to be styled, as does my husband's and the previous cuts were bad enough that we were scared to try someone new. However, we were looking pretty shaggy and he has a business meeting this week so we bit the bullet and made an appointment at Magnolia Janes for me followed by my husband. What a difference from the minute we walked in the door. We were greeted by name the minute we walked in and noted, to our delight, that the salon was immaculate and so attractive inside. Caslyn listened (really listened) to what both of us wanted in styling and cuts, explained the products that she was using and recommended some that I might like to try. But best of all she gave us really great haircuts. Really great! We went to a party that night and at least ten people complimented me on my hair. I felt like a Movie Star and it was with pleasure that I referred them To Caslyn. The best haircut I have ever had and I'm from New York. Thank you Magnolia Janes. We'll be back. read more

Laura, Caslyn and the rest of the staff at Magnolia Jane Salon are group of wonderful experienced stylists. The salon environment is very modern, upscale and professional. The MJS blowout by Laura is AMAZING!!!! I have very thick unruly hair and Laura is the only stylist who can blow dry it super smooth and not have to use a flat iron on my hair. Not only is the blowout amazing the ladies are up to date on the latest styles and trends and do an amazing job of listening to their clients and providing awesome service with a smile. MJS is truly a GEM and comes highly recommended. read more

I have been getting my hair done here for a year. All the ladies are so nice. I love the vibe and the music playlist is on point.

LInda gave me a facial yesterday, and I have to say it was the best facial I have ever had. She listened to my priorities and customized the facial to my specific needs. I left feeling relaxed, refreshed and glowing. read more

You will NOT regret booking with Laura--you're going to look and feel fresh and fabulous. Laura has been taking care of my hair for several years now, and I consistently get compliments about my color from complete strangers. Laura listens attentively and makes sure that she's understanding what you're asking for accurately, but she'll also provide you with good feedback if what you're asking for won't work well with your texture, lifestyle, or some other element. Besides being well skilled, Laura has an amazing spirit, and I look forward to seeing her each time I visit. The salon is flawlessly decorated in an atmosphere of simple elegance and sophistication that is indicative of how you will look and feel when you leave. read more

I found the salon on Yelp and I read a lot of great reviews my stylist was Holly and she was absolutely wonderful. I let her have free reign to my hair and she created a masterpiece and made me feel beautiful I will definitely return back to Holly. She listened to my like and dislikes and she perfected my hair. read more

Laura McGovern has always been nothing but fantastic! I had radiation earlier this year and lost about a quarter of my hair. She has been amazing and also incredibly sweet! I highly recommend Magnolia Jane Salon! read more

My regular hairdresser left at the new year, so I made an appointment with another hairdresser there. I was late to my appointment, she said she couldn't cut my hair because I was 15 minutes late she said in a lecturing tone. I have never in my life come across a hairdresser with this kind of snotty attitude. She wanted to reschedule and when I said no, she complained that it was her time. It could have good use of her time if she had just cut my short! hair. This is a early 30's woman with a ring in her nose, so on reflection, I wouldn't have wanted her to cut my hair anyway. I can't recommend this salon. read more

I always look forward to my appointments with Laura McGovern, Owner/Stylist at Magnolia Jane Salon. There are few people that I meet and have an instant connection, however, Laura has not only become my favorite hairstylist, but she is one of my best friends. Not only does she provide amazing color, haircut, and style with every visit, but she is also very interested in me as a person and how things are going in my life. She not only makes me feel good about my appearance, but she lifts my spirits and we always have a good laugh about something. Laura and her associate Ann Lane assisted with hair and make-up at my daughter's wedding for the bride and all the bridal party. Everyone was pleased and complimented. If you are looking for a great hairstylist and spa, I highly recommend Magnolia Jane Salon & Spa. read more

I used the lovely ladies at Magnolia Jane for my wedding day. The owner - Laura was very accommodating throughout the entire process, which I needed, since I am from Chicago and had very few visits to NC to get everything planned. They were able to fit me in for my trial hair and makeup on one of my visits in early January. For my wedding day, they came to me and my bridal party in Atlantic Beach. My makeup artist was Emilee. I had airbrush and lashes placed. Emilee was great, very calm, and kept me cool throughout the wedding day with friendly words of encouragement. My makeup lasted all day and night. I was too busy enjoying myself to remember to touch up my makeup through the evening, but my makeup still looks great in my exit photos. Laura F did my hair. It was PHENOMENAL! It looked amazing all day and night, even with a breezy beach ceremony. I couldn't be happier! I had a bridal party of 6 + my mother-in-law. Emilee and Laura F. managed to finish everyone's hair and makeup, with two unplanned ladies for makeup in our 4 hour time frame. They were professional and friendly. Highly recommended! (I can't seem to load photos from my phone, but will update with photos soon!) read more
