I didn't realize how unhappy I was with the vibe at my old barber until I stepped through the door here and felt right at home. Everybody actually enjoys being here, and that's contagious. Ethan did my cut, and he was super nice about talking it through with me before getting going, and spent time getting it exactly right, and even helping me out with styling pointers. I was happy with the cuts (if not the vibe) at my prior place, but now that I've had a chance to wash it, style it myself, and wear it for the day, it's definitely a cut above (pardon the pun) what I was getting at my prior place. Can't recommend him highly enough. Just an A+ across the board for making a new customer feel welcome, having a great environment, and giving a great haircut. Oh yeah, and it was $5 less for the cut than I was paying at my last place to boot.

I wanted to make sure to go to a place that knew how to do East Asian hair, so the $60 total (long women's haircut, $50 including a mandated $10 tip) was tough but honestly on the cheaper side for New Haven.

I just made a special trip from Brooklyn to New Haven just so Katy could do my hair…read more I've lived all over the place and gone to a bunch of salons that have really varied in how blonde they go with my hair... usually after 6 weeks there's a clear line of my roots through (let alone my hair will dry out or get frizzy from over-treating it). Somehow when I go to Katy this is all avoided (??) My hair looks very natural. Even as it grows out, it somehow blends. highly recommend!

I've managed to get a walk-in appointment with no wait almost whenever I went. I started to schedule appointments and have had no trouble with availability. The price is really great as well: with student discount, a basic trim for me was around the same price as most chain hair cut places. I've never had a bad haircut from here and I've had appointments with nearly all the staff members. My only disclaimer to this review is that I have only ever asked for relatively simple haircuts, basic trim/shaping, fades, etc.

I went in again today, and Erin fixed my hair (free of charge) and it looks absolutely amazing. The roots are blended perfectly, and my root touch up looks so perfect and it is blended seamlessly. She also gave me a free blow out, which she absolutely did not need to, but she did and my hair just looks so great! I am more than happy with it. I also did the conditioning treatment, which revitalized my dead hair. Overall, I would highly recommend Salon J and especially Erin. I have always loved her haircuts, and I'm now happy that I can confidently endorse her hair dyeing and root touch ups as well. I used to go to New York to get my hair done, and my only regret is that I didn't go to Erin earlier. I'll miss her and amazing hair cutting/dyeing!

So so disappointed and unflattering on me. I hate being seen in public with this hair that cost over $300.

Back in the day when I was young and impressionable, my mother told me that only Korean people…read moreunderstand how to cut Korean hair. For this reason, I have had more than one fobulous perm/dye job/you name it. I have also learned over time that my hair - dark, thin, and straight - doesn't require that much expertise to handle. Regardless, I find comfort in Korean hair salons, and am living proof of the efficacy of brainwashing. So when I found Park Jun on Orange around the same time that my bangs were going rogue, I decided to break my no-haircuts-in-New-Haven rule and see what happened. The space is clean, well-kept, and pretty open, with most of the interior visible through windowed walls from outside. I walked in and the lady on duty, who I suspect is the owner as there was no one else around, asked if I could wait for a little bit while she finished up with another customer (a male of, I suspect, the Korean persuasion, who minutes later had a spiffy haircut). I didn't wait long. I asked for a basic cut, and that's what I got. Shampoo, cut, blow-dry and all took twenty minutes or so, and cost a reasonable $40. Or was it $30? Shit, there go my "Useful" votes. The lady was very friendly and asked me questions about myself as if she were actually interested. She didn't judge me for my totally worthless language skills either. The one thing that I did find pretty funny was that I left the place with my hair styled almost exactly like hers, kind of straight with the ends curled in, and not a whole lot like mine when I walked in. It didn't matter though, as it washed back to normal, and I was happy with the cut. I'm glad I found this place and I'll be back again for East Coast hair maintenance.
