    Jenny is super sweet and really works hard. Everyone I've seen her talk to has always been treated well. This is my go-to place in Elmhurst for no frills haircut. I've not been particularly picky with my hair (typically get an undercut) these past years so some unevenness and choppy sections (see picture to be your own judge) that I've gotten with my cuts don't bother me too much. If you're very particular with your hair and want extreme precision, you may or may not have a good experience. It's neither upscale or luxurious but rather somewhat old-fashioned and homey. The haircuts here are very affordable ($8 for my short hair, a few dollars more for longer hair) so do tip well! My haircuts previously in Brooklyn would be 3x that price! I haven't had the chance to do a hair wash but I've heard it's also quite totally and worth it since there's added head massages which are great tension relievers (gotta make sure to tip here to)! If you're going on a weekend, I would recommend calling in advance to get an idea of the wait. Typically it's less of a wait on weekdays as well, but it might also be a good idea to call just in case either way.

    Before and after.

    Jenny is the best! I've moved to NYC almost a year ago and for months I wanted to get a haircut but everywhere the prices were crazy expensive and the stylists didn't inspire me any trust. I'm turning 30 in a month and I wanted a radical change. I found Melody Beauty Salon here in yelp and I couldn't believe it was only $10 for a haircut. I worked yesterday nearby and I decided to go to the salón to ask for info. And indeed, it is only $10 for a haircut! $12-$14 if you want to receive a shampoo wash and a blowout. I decided to stay and wait even though it was full. I sat and I waited for an hour, true, but in that hour Jenny did haircuts for about 15 people that were before me. She is really fast! She apologized for making me wait and asked me how I wanted my haircut. I said very short. She was surprised because I had very long hair and asked me why I wanted it so short, verified with me that I truly wanted like that. She even showed me a picture to verify for all the means that was what I really wanted. After I confirmed, she started cutting my hair. She does it with so much care and expertise! She was even asking me every move and giving me options for my new style. I heard her asking the same to the other women before me. "This much is fine?" "Do you want me to cut it more?" She makes sure that you are really getting. the haircut you want and she wants you to leave happy with the result. She is sweet and thoughtful, characteristics that I highly appreciate it because in the past I have had bad experiences where I got something completely different from what I wanted. I'm 100% satisfied with my new haircut and I would definitely go back and recommend to go there. You may need to plan to wait if you just show up, but I assure you the wait is worthy!

    Thank you Jenny!!! Purple hair on fleek  @raejuvenated

    Jenny is the greatest hair colorist I've ever had. I came with my hair pre-bleached (faded silver) and left with vibrant purple. Highly reccomend this place!

    Losing my hair..

    I did my jappaneese straightening here and I have been loosing hair since. The service was poor. The price were expensive and she applied the wrong technique I guess for me to face this kind of problem. I recommend y'll to research before doing anything!!!

    My haircut and brown toner!

    This no frills salon is my go to for a haircut. Jenny is super sweet, will not get scissor crazy and will actually listen to what you're telling her - all with the low prices we know and love from these Chinese salons. Over the years I've dyed my hair here twice and loved the result both times. The color stayed well and my haircut always grows out nicely. Last year I've made the mistake of going to one of those hip new places in Flushing and paid almost $400 for a balayage and hated it. My hair was brassy as hell and literally looked like a broom. I came in today for a trim and decided to also get it toned brown and my hair is SAVED!! It was $10 for the cut and $45 for the toner which is a STEAL. If you're looking for a simple haircut/color you cannot go wrong with this place!

    This is my go to place for haircuts and eyebrow threading. Jenny is the owner of this salon. Jenny is abrupt but she is a sweetheart. Prices here are very reasonable. Wash, Hair-cut, and blow dry is $18. Eyebrow threading is $5. Threading above the lips is $3. lip I also come for hair dye coloring - starts at $30. Beware of weekends - this is place is packed with customers of all ages! Be warned - you will wait awhile if you come on weekends. Best times are weekdays. Customers are mostly Filipinos, Indians ( jenny is Chinese and speaks the Indian language), and Chinese.

    asked for bangs and a short bob :)

    Customer service is not their strong feature, rude and un polite. And prices vary depending on your ethnicity.

    Even though she closes around 7pm, Jenny gave me a perm in 2 hours and used henna to color my hair in 30-45 mins.

    Upon making my appointment at this salon for a regular cut and blow, I specifically told the…read morereceptionist that I follow the curly girl method, and don't use sulfates, silicones and drying alcohols on my hair. She assured me they'd be able to accommodate me. I was optimistic when she said they'd also be able to diffuse my hair instead of blow drying it straight. I walked in for my appointment and heard the girls talking about my request like "what is the issue?" "is she allergic to it or just doesn't want to use it?" and had to get the products from the back to wash my hair. My hair was washed and I sat in the chair for a while, and by the time my stylist got to me, my hair was almost dry. Anyone with knowledge of curly hair knows it has to be styled while wet with gel and/or a curl cream. She did the cut which was good, making sure the length was what I wanted and took off the right amount. But then to style me, she put in some type or cream or oil in my 70% dry hair that was probably filled with silicones. She diffused my hair on high heat, scrunching from the ends first and not starting at the roots. She diffused me for like 5 minutes and my hair was still damp. It ended up looking very frizzy, kind of like Lucy when she left her perm in for too long. I told her myself I would have to rewash and style it myself at home. I'm lucky I had nowhere to go that day because it was bad. In summary, my hair is fine, but don't tell your customers you have knowledge of something when you just don't. I think this salon is OK for people with straight hair or those who don't care about ingredients. The girls before me looked gorgeous. But curly girls steer clear.

I called the day of to schedule an appointment for the same day which I was happy to get. I arrived early to check in and wait for my scheduled time, rather than let me wait one of the staff members starts to wash my hair and gets me seated at one of the stations. So far being there I noticed how clean everything was and how the staff were wearing their masks and keeping a safe distance. The hairstylist Edel introduced herself and i was happy that the staff informed her that all i wanted was a trim, blowdry and flat iron. I hate going to places and they cut more than what you ask for do something that you didn't want with Edel that was not the case. She slowly cut the tips and showed me what she was cutting. After that she blow dried my hair so straight that I could've asked her not to flat iron but I enjoyed the work that she was doing. Staff: was very welcoming, warming and professional. They informed me that they do keratin which i will call and schedule next. Environment: Very clean, good music, friendly staff and customers. Result: My hair felt great and better than I expected. Definitely need to go back soon as my hair will thank me for it .
