Stay away from Sal. He does not know how to color dark brown hair. My hair looks like black shoe polish,

I got a cut and a blow out in exactly the style I was thinking of. Adrianna can read minds; just kidding- she has great taste and a great hair cutting method for curly hair. The atmosphere at Bangles is cool/casual and they have wonderfully scented vegan & organic products in the salon. Finally, the price is moderate. I will definitely come again! read more

I absolutely love Salon Bangles, I have been cutting my hair with them for 15 years straight . From just a trim to a angled hair cut , to bangs , Kristen is perfect at cutting my hair just the way I want it ! And perfect with my balayage too! I super recommend this place!!! read more

Love it! I've been their customer for years now. Always very happy with my organic highlights. Best salon in the area! read more

Ugh I wish I can give this place minus 10, after I spend $350 on what they claim is haha "ORGANIC KERATIN" please !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry I have to laugh , I've done keratin in my hair so many times and my hair has never been dead and frizzy ever before And on top of that I had to buy their Special Shampoo !!!! Again what a waste... And on top of that one person started doing my hair and someone finished, obviously the second person didn't know what she was doing... Do your self a favor don't waste your money on this place, hate giving bad reviews but I've been so disappointed with how my hair is looking right now, that I have to vent.... read more

Incapable of cutting asian hair. They do not know what to do with it except compliment on how soft and healthy it is. Yes, thank you. After which, they will attempt at giving you subtle layers, so subtle you can actually see straight horizontal cut lines going across my hair. I was actually naive enough to go back to get them to "fix" it because the right side of my hair was so chunky. I left the place with that side of my hair shorter than the other. I guess Banglez does not exactly get the most diverse clientele. read more

This is kinda an awkward review to write....but here it goes I had an appointment to get my hair chopped off. The hairdresser was running a bit behind but no biggie. I climbed into the chair and semi-nevously but excitedly told her I wanted a pixie cut. I explained I just had my second baby and I had no time or desire to be styling my hair. She immediately seemed hesitant and told me she didn't want to give me a pixie cut because other people had bad experiences with them and growing them out. She told me she wanted to do a Bob on me first to see how I liked it before heading down the pixie path. I agreed because you can always cut hair, ya can't glue it back on. During the cut we talked about pixie experiences and she said she was giving me the cut she wanted her hair to grow to (she was growing out a pixie too). I kept saying how I really wanted the pixie, how my friends talked me into, how I really needed the convenience etc. When she finished, she showed me it wet. I asked if she was gonna style it and she said I didn't request that when I called. FYI, I would never chop all my hair off and leave with it wet! Then she told me she had another client waiting but blow dried it for me. It wasn't what I wanted though...I came in for a pixie, I didn't want to leave with a Bob and have to go to another place to get the cut I wanted. I had to be really firm with her to give me the pixie. By that point I felt like she was rushing because she had another client waiting (I'm guessing there was a bit of a client build up at that point). I left the salon with a sort of half pixie...one side is long and the other is the perfect cut. I kinda feel like she just didn't have time to cut the other side. It's a bit awkward of a cut..half perfectly what I wanted and half what she wanted. Kind of reminds me of some emo hair back in highschool. I have to style it so the longer pieces don't fall in the back and look so "half done". I contemplated writing the review because I had intended to go back to get the cut finished...but now I just feel weird about the whole situation and it's such little hair to get cut at this point. I actually really do love the salon, I used to get my hair cut all the time there before I started "adulting" and now I don't have time. I wish we weren't so rushed and I had just forced her to give me a pixie as soon as I sat down. It more than likely would have been a happier experience. I wanted to continue going to the salon to get my hair cut :-( read more

I wanted to write a good review but I'll say this a woman didn't cut my hair... I forgot the name of the guy who cut it. But he made it worse than I could imagine. I came in with a picture of what I wanted and it was nowhere near that picture.. It felt like a mean joke... I paid anyways even though I felt like it wasn't worth the pay. I'll stick to my norlandys in elizabeth or even sofis in cranford if I want to splurge read more

I've been going to Salon Bangles for a few years now and I LOVE it there. It's a little hard (well, more like annoying) to travel from NYC to Springfield, but it is SO worth waking up early on a Saturday to get a great cut from the talented stylists employed there. Every stylist I've had has really listened to what I wanted, gave great suggestions, and made me feel completely comfortable. They don't take cards, but there's an ATM right next door and another right up the street, The mother/daughter owners are super sweet too! read more

I've been going to see Kristin for a little over a year now. I don't go very often, usually every few months for a trim or cut. I just want to say that Kristin just gave me the most perfect haircut ever! I asked for a textured bob and she totally delivered! Honestly I'm so happy with how easy it is to style and it still looks amazing even if I don't wash it. So very happy! read more

Cruelty free, affordable and SO cute inside. Steph cut my hair and did an AMAZING job. I'm so bummed I'm moving bc I finally found someone I really like! read more

I had my hair cut at Salon Bangles for the first time and I wish I had known about this place when I first moved to NJ years ago! Love the decor/vibe of the salon, everybody is super friendly, and Steph had the skills of a stylist that should've cost a lot more money! I've been to several salons in the Summit area and found them either too expensive, too rushed, or too chaotic. Steph fixed the choppy layers I had done at a much pricier salon and took the time to make every detail right! The attention-to-detail, price, efficiency, kindness, skill and vibe of Salon Bangles have sold me. Highly recommend! This will be my salon as long as I stay in NJ. read more

When back to Jackie for some highlights and I am so happy I did. The color looks great and natural which is what I wanted! I cannot be happier with the experiences I have had at Salon Bangles!!!! read more

This was our first visit to Salon Bangles. It was a great experience. Everyone we interacted with was extemely nice and courteous. Adianna cut, colored and blew out my daughters hair. She got "mermaid hair" fantasy color and it came out beautiful, even better than anticipated. I observed all the hair dressers with their clients and they were all professional but really chill. One hair dresser was working on a young lady with developmental disabilities and he treated her with such kindness. The salon had a very cool vibe. We will definitely be back. read more

I have been coming to Salon Bangles for 9 years. I always work with Kristin and she is phenomenal! I always get compliments on my highlights and my hair cut. I have referred so many people here since I have been very happy with their services. I used to live in the area so I was only 10 minutes away now I have to drive an hour to get to the salon but it is worth it! All staff is very friendly and cheerful, the salons set up is really nice It is open space with cool decorations and different stations. I love the hair bar where you hang out as you are waiting for your the color to set in. They also offer organic color that is free of all the chemical. You will love their services! read more

I've been a patron of Salon Bangles for more than ten years. It is a very friendly shop, and while casual in atmosphere, there is seriously professional styling and coloring going on. I like that the age range of its customers is broad; this provides a nice balance of edgy, or more traditional results, based on your preferences. The owners are lovely and kind women, and I always feel welcomed here. Great location, always plenty of parking, and good prices. read more

After having had a couple of haircuts at Salon Bangles (from Kristin and Fabi), I would definitely recommend this place. In addition to being really pleased with the cuts -- I'd highly recommend both stylists --I really enjoyed the overall experience. The fact that it's in a strip mall can be deceiving and the first time I went I was unsure if I was going to be walking into a "chainy" store like Supercuts or Great Clips. However, as soon as I entered I was impressed with the cool decor and the overall vibe. Great music was playing and everyone who works there seems really down-to-earth. Definitely the best place I've ever gotten my hair cut. read more

My son received a hair cut from Kristin "salon owner". Putting my basis opinion aside I asked other stylist professionals and friends their opinion. --- all agreed extremely poorly done. Uneven bowl cut with ear flaps. Looks ridiculous. I will be taking my son to a true professional to correct this cut. I went to a consult at another salon - they were appalled by the haircut he received and were in disbelief it was done by a seemly "professional" and astonished it was an owner/lead stylist. read more

Amazing salon! Comfortable place to get your cut and color, everyone is very friendly. They listen and are happy to spend time making everything just the way you'd like it, unlike some salons that rush you in and out like a cattle herd. A great stylist is hard to find, I have one now thanks to this place and Ill never go anywhere else! There's a reason they've been in business so long, while other salons come and go...they're great! read more

I tried this place because I only needed a blow out, my appointment was with Krissy, she turned out to be really wonderful. I felt comfortable with her and so the next visit she colored my hair, which I liked very much. I continued to,see her for the remainder of the year . I was very happy with her, she listened and did exactly what I wanted. I was extremely sad and disappointed when I found out that she was no longer there. The girl I spoke to on the phone recommended Nicole. I saw Nicole in July and I wasn't happy with the color she did but I decided to give her a chance, I felt that maybe I didn't explain myself enough. I made another appointment for this Saturday, the 31st, she called & said she's not going to be around, if I can come in Thursday, I said it will be difficult but I would try. Any how I showed up, I explained to her what I wanted & she did the opposite the job she did was sloppy & quick. I could have done something better @ home. I said I would like to go a shade lighter with my color, because it would hide the grey hair much better. She did a chocolate color, when I asked for a caramel color or similar. Before I came in I said I would also need a haircut . She colored my hair, did a bad job & then said we are closing you have to go. I had to leave there with my hair soaking wet & no clue as to the color except it was very dark. She DOES NOT LISTEN TO WHAT YOU NEED, she does whatever she wants to. She is absolutely horrible. read more

Bangles is AMAZING! I went to Justin and he did an amazing job! He was very friendly and gave me tips on how to style it! I'm a very awkward person and he just made it fun! I will be coming back! read more

Not a very particular person when it comes to haircuts, but had a lot of trouble finding a good place in Union County. Based on recommendation from a friend and stellar Google reviews, decided to give Salon Bangles a try. Made an appointment(which isn't required), was seated almost immediately, and had a very lovely cut with Jackie, who was very nice and attentive. Pricing is good. Will definitely come back! read more

I was going to Bangles for a few years and initially the owner appeared to be quite friendly. Then I noticed that she spoke negatively about other customers to me. I found this to be quite unprofessional. They advertise walk ins but depending on the time of year, the owner's daughter decided to close early on a whim or stayed if there was a customer she wanted to impress---she stayed open for certain people and told others she was closed. Later the owner changed and started screaming at customers in front of others. She appeared or changed into a Jekyll/Hyde personality. I would not recommend this salon. read more

After my third bad haircut here, I had to ask myself why I was still coming to Salon Bangles. It is cheap and it is convenient, but that's about all they have going for them. Every time I walked in the receptionist looked at me like she couldn't for the life of her figure out why I came in and the stylists act like they could care less too....they just want you out so they can go outside and smoke a cigarette. The owner is aloof, not at all friendly, and the place is just strange. The last haircut I had looked like my 5 year old got a hold of a pair of scissors....needless to say a corrective cut was needed, but I opted for a more professional salon. I'm done with Salon Bangles. read more

Steph is hands-down the best stylist at Salon Bangles. I have been going to Steph at Bangles since 2009 and I will not let anyone else do my hair. She moved to another state for a few years (during which time I tried to find another stylist and NO ONE has ever come CLOSE) but she is working there again now. Her prices are really reasonable considering the work she does is absolutely exceptional. She has done every style/cut and color I've ever asked for, ranging from super funky to simple and natural; each time done perfectly. She has never made me feel rushed, she actually cares about what she does, and it is clear that customer satisfaction is her #1 priority. Additionally, she is so sweet; a very down-to-earth girl. To sum it up: Steph is highly professional while always incredibly friendly, and her knowledge and talent are incomparable. read more

I've been to this salon about 5 times. It's unfortunate that it took me that long to realize just how bad it was. The first time I had to have my highlights redone by another stylist. I went to the second stylist the next time I went in who put an incorrect base color in my hair and I had to go back and pay for additional highlights. The manager tried to fix my hair and did improve on it a bit, however, 1 side of my hair in the front is orange. I paid almost $300 by the time all of this was said and done. Now I have to go to another salon to have it corrected once again. On top of all that, the second stylist got color on my pants in two places. They agreed to replace the pants if I had a receipt which I brought in with me the last time I went. They would only agree to give me a $25 gift certificate for, of all things, color only. I would never recommend them to anyone nor would I return. read more

BRIDES: DO NOT USE THIS SALON! The OWNER does bridal hair. You must speak to her directly to schedule a wedding trial. Well I did and the day I walked in for my trial, she didn't know it was a trial. I showed her 3 pictures of styles I would like for my hair. I had a first choice and two other options in case one didn't work. She teased my hair, completely flattened it down then got to work on the back. Mid-way or more through she tells me she couldn't do the style I showed her because of my silky hair so she did a variation. I don't know about you but to me variation means close. I knew when she was finished that I wasn't happy but the combination of not having all the time in the world for her to start over, shock, and shear anger I kept my mouth shut. I had my make-up done (whole other story) and left. At home, I had my fiance snap a close up pic of my hair and it was a literal bird's nest on the back of my head. NOTE: the one thing I told the owner twice on the phone and before she started was I don't like curls! She had literally curled my hair and pinned it up randomly. Very ala late 90's prom style. To top this off, I spent 20 minutes the next day conditioning and combing the knots she created out of my head. The result was a ping pong size ball of hair lost. Because this has been eating away at me, I called the salon and spoke to the owner. I was very polite (trust me, I can be otherwise with no problem) and explained all as I just wrote above. Her responses to my, a CUSTOMER who came recommended from a past bride, concerns were that I am rude, how dare I question her ability to do hair as she is a bridal specialist and has done brides throughout the tri-state area, I am never going to get the hairstyle I want, I remind her of a customer who called a year after getting highlights to complain she wasn't happy they grew out, and good luck to the salon that has to deal with me, followed by a slam down of the phone. What I was asking for was a refund of the $45.00 I paid her for the hair portion of my services...prompting the highlights comment. I had to pay with a check since they don't take credit cards (too bad, I could have just disputed the charge). Since she would not work with me at all, my only recourse is to truthfully tell about my experience on websites like these. Hopefully I will save another bride some horror. As an aside, she told me on the phone I should have told her I wasn't happy so she could redo it. Ironically, when I told her employee I wasn't happy with my eyeliner I got a lecture in echoes from her and and another employee about why I was wrong about my eyeliner. Like mother, like daughter. Like salon owner, like salon employee. I can only imagine the lecture she would have gave me. By the way, the make-up products are hardly a professional line. They were mostly Victoria's Secret and E.L.F. products (which cost $1.00). AND, total health violation, the girl did my make-up back to back after another girl (who I happen to know) and used the same brushes on my face. They hadn't been washed in-between clients. I knew the girl so I never even thought of it then but, really? The owner will also charge you whatever she wants. The website says $35.00 for make-up. When I called to schedule the trial she told me $50.00 (should have been my first clue) and the day I went she charged me $40.00. Unless you want to throw money down the drain, find a better salon ladies!! read more

Nothing really special. I've been there a few times for a cut or color/highlights. The cut was mediocre, and the last time I went there the girl hacked away my hair, even after showing her a picture of what I wanted and told her I wanted to be able to tie my hair up. When I got color/highlights, they stained the skin around my hairline all around my head. They tried to get it off, but most of it stayed on until I went home and scrubbed it off with nail polish remover. They also didn't do a good job rinsing or protecting my clothing for the dye. I still had globs of dye in my hair from when one girl rinsed it and when the girl I made an appointment with was cutting my hair, she had to take me to the sink again to rinse. I also got dye on of my favorite hoodies. Also, the girl recommended a way she could color/highlight my hair, and it turned out horrible. I couldn't wait for my cut to grow out and dye it a different color (and I did, but I did it myself at home and it turned out a lot nicer...only took 2 months to grow out). Granted, it's probably changed since I've been there because I've checked their website and all the previous girls that did my hair are no longer there. I haven't been there since about 2008 because of my past experiences. Only went there maybe 2 or 3 times, giving them chances and because I didn't feel like driving into the city to get my hair cut. I'm Asian, and I feel maybe they should have a hairstylist who knows how to cut Asian hair. It's hard to find around these areas without driving 30 - 40 mins to either Fort Lee/Paramus, Edison/East Brunswick, or driving in to NYC to get my hair cut at my trusted stylist (though he charges me $50 - 60 for my hair, he ALWAYS colors/highlights/cuts it exactly how I want. Also, his suggestions are always spot on and look amazing on me.). read more

The minute you walk in you are greeted by the friendly receptionist. Next you get a super hair wash and directed to your stylist. Joan my stylist for many years listens to my requests and accomplishes my desires. Always love my visits to Salon Bangles. If you need color the salon has organic products! read more

The stylists here bleached and fried my hair so badly that I had to go to another salon to have them fix it. When I told the stylist that the color was not what I wanted, she shrugged it off and told me to go home and look at it in a different light. I came back the next day to have them fix it, and they only made it worse, and when I called the owner to complain, she was flippant, condescending, and did not seem to care one bit that she had an irate customer. They also charged me a fortune. Never again. I only give this place two stars because I had a good haircut there about a year ago. read more
