Lauren is the owner and one of the stylist there. Jeff is the co-owner and a stylist as well. They all stay up to date with the trends and personalize each cut/style to your hair type. Very professional. Lauren and Jeff have been in the biz and making New Orleans locals look good for a very long time now. Prices are competitive. They are located across from Clearview Mall. Nice cozy atmosphere. Cold beverages are offered such as soft drinks, water and WINE. read more

Lauren is the co-owner of Salon J.Elle and I have been going to her for years now. She always does an amazing job and really has a knack for suggesting what will look good on you. She truly is a color genius! Almost my entire family goes to her and everyone that I send her way gets hooked. No matter how trendy or conservative you are, they can style your hair. They recently installed a mani/pedi station which is nice for a one stop shop. I also hired Lauren for hair and makeup for my wedding and the up-styles Lauren and Sam did were breathtaking and the same goes for makeup. I felt beautiful and my hair and makeup held up the entire night, even with all the dancing. Lastly - spray tans...yep they got em! Very nice even color, natural looking and no streaks. They have 3 different color levels to choose from and the tan lasts at least a week. read more

I found this salon some time in April via YELP and haven't looked back since. In a nutshell: --Great prices. --Cute decor. --Convenient parking. --Friendly & Talented staff. I live in New Orleans but I grew up in Metairie, so making the trek over city limits doesn't frighten me like some New Orleanians! I shopped around in the past to various salons from uptown to the cbd to downtown and what I discovered was either 1 of 3 things: 1. Overcrowded salons where parking is a nightmare and you feel rushed. 2. Incredibly expensive due to location. 3. Rich, snooty attitudes. Yelp is my best friend. I typically don't go to a place without yelping it first. Although I dont review often, I like to write reviews for places I frequent: --This place has ample parking and is at a convenient location in Metairie (::ahem:: for those New Orleanians in need, just take the Clearview exit on I-10) the salon is just across the street from Clearview Mall on Vets. --My stylist Jackie is fantastic. She is extremely detail oriented and thorough. I tend to request haircuts that look a very specific way - ie.1920s bob - and she nailed it!!! She also does an exceptional job with men's hair. Being the girl who never went back to a specific salon/stylist more than twice in my life, it speaks volumes to me that I've been to Salon J-Elle almost every 4-6 weeks since April of this year. Sadly, I'm moving out of state in a few months so I am definitely gonna miss this place. read more

Marcy did a phenomenal job on my hair and makeup for am event yesterday, and did so on short notice. I had no idea what I wanted done and she took great care of me and made me look absolutely stunning. I will definitely be coming back! Lauren did my eyebrows also and I highly suggest her for her waxing. Overall a great, beautiful and clean salon with talented artists! read more

I've been a loyal Salon J-Elle customer for the last two and a half years and I seriously couldn't be happier. Each time I visit the Salon I have an amazing experience from beginning to end. All of the girls here are super sweet, and each one of them is a talented professional. I've been coming to Sam for my last two appointments, and she is completely wonderful. I never feel rushed, and Sam always takes her time to make sure my color and cut are perfect. I usually don't have a game plan when I come in, but that's why I love Sam! I just arrive to my appointment and let her work her magic. She has an eye for what works, and it's obvious she loves what she's doing because it is clearly reflected in her magnificent work! Sam is also fantastic at recommending the best tools and products to help keep my hair looking amazing in between visits. I always leave the Salon feeling like the best version of myself, and I'm already looking forward to my next appointment. A huge thank you to Lauren for creating and maintaining one of the best Salons in the area, and to Sam for providing a relaxing and therapeutic experience each time I visit! read more

A couple of months ago, I decided to get approx. 8" of hair cut off because I was bored with it. A quick Yelp search pointed me in the direction of Salon J-Elle. Bonus: Online appointment booking. I wasn't sure who to choose for my first appointment, but Sadie sounded like a cool name. Best choice ever. Not only did Sadie cut off the 8" of hair, but she gave me some kickass highlights and some great tips for styling/care. She was extremely conversational and made the 2-3 hour appointment fly by! I recently went back for a trim and highlight touchup and Sadie worked her magic yet again. Also, the dry shampoo that she introduced me to is magic in a bottle. I skipped a day of hair washing for the first time ever. EVER. read more

Quality of spray tan: excellent Friendliness of staff: is there a 0 star. This was my first spray tan and I have a physical disability that affects my balance. I went in with no expectations and that is exacts what I got. The girls were all business. Zero personality. There has to be a better salon out there for spray tanning. That place made me want to cry. read more

I believe this is one of the best salons in the area. I have been going to Lauren, one of the owners, since I was 16 and she has yet to fail me. I basically walk in, explain shortly about what I want, and she nails it every time. I have never been disappointed. The salon constantly goes to workshops and keep up with the latest styles/trends. I have gotten pedicures/maicures here (including gel) and they have lasted way longer than when I get them from anywhere else. PLUS it is very reasonably priced Lauren has also done our hair/makeup for many occasions. It is always flawless. For my brother's wedding, Sam did my updo and I can't believe how great it looked and how well it held up through the night. It didn't budge and I got constant compliments. I can't wait for Salon J-elle to move to a more spacious location. This place is too great for it to be cooped up in a small space :) read more

Ok, ok. So, I decided to make a last minute appointment with this salon after reading so many great reviews. I had a serious color correction that needed to be done 24hours before a Birthday party. I had no hope for my severely fried hair and was initially going to try and box dye it again and wing it for this party. SO GLAD I decided to go see Sam for my complete hair transformation! I never in a million years thought my hair would look anything close to normal after what I did to it (bleach over bleach over bleach under multiple box dyes). She was awesome! She's super sweet and told me up front what was going to have to happen to get my hair back healthy. She even missed her nail appointment so she didn't have to rush and could finish my hair (sorry again, Sam!). She's an amazing hairstylist and I would highly recommend her for any service. If you're looking for color correction, she's your girl! See the photos for before and after. The salon is a great little spot, very welcoming with cute decor and comfy little massage chairs at the wash bowls! Everyone there is really nice and funny. I've definitely found my new hair salon! read more

I found Jaclyn at Salon J-elle from reading Yelp reviews. I have been to her three times already and every time she has been great. Jaclyn really cares about giving a great haircut which is important to me since I'm a guy and not looking for a colorist. In addition to being very talented, she is also great to talk to and takes as much time as needed to finish your cut and make sure it is how you wanted her to cut it. At $30 for a men's haircut she is the most reasonably priced stylist I've been to in a long time. Salon J-elle easy to get to from almost anywhere and it has off street parking. I left my last place because it was in the Quarter and impossible to find parking. read more

I moved to New Orleans almost a year ago and I think I have finally found a salon that I will happily go back to. I got turned around when trying to find it, but I called and they were very helpful with directions. They weren't upset at all that I was a little late. My last haircut was pretty boring haircut, and I wanted something a little more sassy. The minute Samantha put her hands through my hair she knew how to help me out. She talked me through what she was doing and why. She was using techniques that I had never seen - I guess that's what happens when your hair stylist is well educated and up to date with the new techniques. She didn't rush through it, and I got a free Moroccan oil treatment since I was a first time customer! I was there for a little over an hour and it only cost $38. Seriously, try it. read more

Had a great cut here for my short pixie cut. Bridget was able to get me in right after I called and gave me exactly what I wanted! Will definitely be back!! read more

I almost don't want to write this review because I don't want other people to find out how awesome this salon is. Jeff gave me literally the BEST haircut I have ever gotten and I barely had to explain what I wanted. He came to me highly recommended by several women in my office whom I complemented on their hair. It's no coincidence that both of their cuts were done by Jeff. Price was beyond reasonable and everyone was very friendly. I will definitely be going back. PS: I bought this brush called "The Wet Brush". You can use it in the shower or right after, on wet hair, and it goes through like your hair has been dried and straightened. No tangles. It works even with no conditioner. I've never heard of it before but I will not go back to a regular brush for simple brushing (you can't heat style with it). read more

Got a 3 in 1 visit on Saturday! Hair by Brittney, makeup by Sam, an nails!! I loved everything! They were all so nice and easy. They wanted to make sure I loved the way everything looked and I totally trusted them. So happy I chose them to help me get ready for my ball!! read more

Bridget did my hair and did an amazing job. She was very thorough and informative! She is talented, friendly and easy to work with.

I WILL BE BACK ANYTIME I NEED A GOOD BLOW OUT!!! I came in town for Mardi Gras last week for a ball. I had already had a blow out from another salon but it was falling and starting to lose its volume. So I looked on yelp for a salon nearby to get another blow out done- got a walk in at J-Elle with Jacqueline, "Jackie" and she did an AMAZING job. She used just the right amount of product in my hair she literally understood exactly what I wanted and was able to deliver spectacular results. read more

This is the only place in the city that knows how to do hair!! Any time that I have gone somewhere else, I have been disappointed. I LOVE Salon J-elle. Lauren and Marcy are both wonderful hair stylists and treat you like family whenever you come in. They are very detail oriented and make sure you are happy with the final result. I refuse to go anywhere else to get my hair done. read more

It is easy to see that Margie has been a manicurist for over 30 years. She gives a top notch manicure and pedicure. She uses high quality products and she has a very nice personality. The mani-pedi area is private and quiet with a nice massaging chair. I highly recommend this service. read more

I get my hair done by Sam C and she is amazing! She listens and cares about what you want. I've had issues with other stylists/colorists in the past with my blonde hair (aka too ashy or too yellow.) Not Sam! She takes her time (lots of foils) and gets it right. Plus to top it all off she's fun and super sweet! Sam also did my hair and makeup for my wedding day and it turned out incredible, seriously incredible. People said I looked 'stunning' and I sure felt that way. Like a movie star! I asked to have a natural look, and she pulled it off to perfection. Sam will listen to what you want and if you don't like certain things just let her know. She wants you to be happy and beautiful for your wedding day! My hair and makeup stayed all day and all night, literally. The wedding ceremony was at 2 pm and the party didn't stop until 5 am and my hair and makeup didn't budge. Thanks Sam for making me feel like my most beautiful ever for my wedding day! read more

I've only had one hairstylist for the past 3 years, but I moved to New Orleans. So I had to find a new stylist on my own. After going through reviews, j-Elle seemed safe, so I booked whoever was available at a time I could come. Sadie was absolutely WONDERFUL! I have very fine/thin hair texture, and I needed someone who was good with clippers to give me a fade (like most gay guys, of course). She nailed it and left me with extra knowledge and how to achieve a more full head of hair. She was also a joy to talk to while I was on the chair and took plenty of time to discuss my options! A men's haircut was $30 from her, which is exactly how much I paid at my old stylist (before a tip). Definitely my new hair stylist while I'm in New Orleans! read more

OMG I LOVE my hair! Went here for the first time today on a recommendation to get a new look and that's what I got. Sam is amazing with color and I love the cut! I feel like a new woman and look like one too :D. Thank you so much! read more

This is one of the best hair salons ever! I have been there several times now and have never had to wait for my scheduled appointments. Jacqui is my hairstylist . She is very professional . Even more important , she is very talented! Incredible hairstylist and wonderful with color as well. If asked she will explain exactly what she is doing and why. Unfortunately I moved 2000 miles away but will continue to book appointments here every time I return for visit ! Thanks Jacqui! read more

Sam was an awesome chick!! The process to lighten hair is dreadful, but she made the time fly! She's definitely talented when it comes to color and I couldn't be happier with my hair! Everyone at the salon was super friendly and I will definitely go back! Thanks for the stupendous customer service! read more

Salon J-Elle - Lightning by Sam!! - Hair Salons Near Me - Mandeville, Louisiana

Lauren has been cutting my hair for over 10 years. She consistently provides me with not only the best men's haircut, but also the greatest all-around salon experience. Her staff is professional, accommodating, and always ensures I am well taken care of. Also, get a facial from Jeanni. They're amazing. I was so relaxed afterwards I booked another for the following week. Book one and you'll understand. And...my skin looks amazing now. read more

Salon J'Elle is great. Lauren does an amazing job and the staff is very professional.

I'd give less than 1 star if I could. They completely destroyed my fiancé's hair. She wanted blond streaks and they were grey. No shine. It looked dull. Definitely not worth nowhere near $300+. They also chopped off 2 inches of her hair. She left with a terrible color AND her hair wasn't soft nor healthy after whatever was put in it. I would highly suggest looking elsewhere for a salon. read more

Great place, awesome staff, and I walked away with a haircut that I love! Samantha (Sam) did my hair and I've never had such great results! I will definitely return this fall for a cut and color! Also, very decent prices. I am so happy with my hair and the whole experience! :) read more

I am new to Nola and live in the Garden District, however after reading recommendations online I called Salon J-Elle when I really wanted a fresh hair cut on my birthday. They were able to schedule me an appointment the same day. Went I went in Jackie was my stylist. She listened to what I wanted and did such an amazing job. I am in love with my hair cut, and Jackie was such a sweetheart the whole time it was a really enjoyable experience. The price was also very fair. As long as I live down here I will be returning to this salon for Jackie, thank you! read more

This salon is so cute, the staff is so friendly and Samantha is my hairdresser and she is wonderful! I found them on Groupon and checked out their reviews so I decided to give it a go for a full highlight and some long layers. Having been a hairdresser myself, I was so relieved to find Samantha to be knowledgable AND talented - she did exactly what I asked and wanted! My hair looks great and I even came back for a touch up and brought my boyfriend along for a haircut, too. read more

I can pretty much only answer the question of "Who does your hair?!" so many times before I have to make a PSA about it. I have been going to Lauren Moulton for a little under 2 years now and I will continue to visit this salon as long as I live in New Orleans, in fact I'd probably fly back if I had to. When I first started going to her my hair was very long and very dark. She slowly lightened me up to a beautiful golden blonde and then about a year later gave me the most perfect, swing bob, the first time I've had hair that short since I've been out of Pampers. It was exactly what I was looking for! Most recently she took me from blonde to brunette with rich colors and to-die-for dimension. Every where I go people are either asking me who does my hair or complementing it, including other stylists! One of my favorite things about Lauren is her vision, I can tell her a brief description of what I want, maybe show her a picture or two and she nails it EVERYTIME. I wouldn't trust anyone else do to the dramatic changes has made for me. Everyone in the salon is very friendly and they all work well together as a team. If you are looking for a new stylist in the G.N.O. area I would 100% recommend Salon J-elle. The salon is in a good location, parking has never been a problem for me, they are constantly evolving and growing in their services, they stay up on trends and products and the prices are reasonable. Do yourself a favor and check them out! read more

I was visiting family in New Orleans and booked an appointment with the salon and they were quite accommodating. BRIDGET WAS SUPERB! She used the right products on my hair and styled it beautifully. While I was there, I also got the chance to see the other stylists work on their respective clients and the stylists results were very good. This salon is a full service salon and excellent choice to have either your hair done (Brazilian Blowout or just a blowout), a facial, makeup application, the works if you wish. This is now my go to salon when I am visiting in New Orleans. So, if anyone needs to look smashing during the holidays, this is the salon to go to. read more

Jeff and Lauren are professional and skilled. I've gone to Jeff since I can remember, and I've never been disappointed. If you are looking for a new stylist, you won't go wrong at J-elle. read more

Lauren is amazing. I am extremely picky about my layers and having my hair styled after the cut and she was perfect! Gentle with my sensitive scalp and it literally was the best haircut of my life. I like to always be on top of how I look and this is the best place in the world to do it. The salon has the best atmosphere and everyone is happy to be there. I'm from San Francisco and those salons have nothing on this place! I'll definitely be back! read more

Love love love my hair when I leave here. I just moved to the area and by chance was set up with Matti. She not only listened to everything that I wanted, but she helped with me some suggestions as well. She was overly willing to please and even though I couldn't have told her any more than I already did that I loved my hair, she assured me that if I got home and felt differently that I could call and she would fix it for me. I'm so upset she's leaving, but she made the experience worth while and I have a feeling I will be going here as long as I live in the area! Thanks for the great service Matti! read more

I've been looking for a new stylist since I don't know where my last one went after she left her old salon and I found Salon J-elle with a search on the net for reviews. I really like this salon.

I am pleased to tell you that I enjoyed my experience at J*ELLE. My stylist, Matti was very knowledgable about hair care and keeping my hair healthy and tips for growth.

If your looking for a new salon, I definitely recommend you make an appointment today! read more
