I can't say enough great things about this salon--such a clean, welcoming space and an overall amazing experience every time. Jo is incredible at what she does. Her brow wax is always spot-on and perfectly shapes my brows, and her lash lamination leaves my lashes looking so full and lifted without mascara. If you want to walk out feeling confident and put together, Jo is the one. Highly recommend! read more

I got a haircut from Christina and she did a great job cutting and styling my hair. She was super nice and professional. It's hard to find a good stylist for thick Asian hair in Denver, so I'm very happy to have found her! read more

The only place I'll go to get my hair done! I had struggled to find a place in Denver that really does Asian hair well, and a co-worker had recommended it to me. Christina always does a wonderful job and is so friendly to chat with. She does book out pretty far in advance, and it makes sense why! I highly recommend Salon Joa! read more

Since I was recommended Salon Joa, I've never gone back anywhere else!! Christina does an amazing job here with my thick hair. You do need to make sure you are scheduling in advance to get a spot! There's a few reserved parking spots in the back, which is really helpful for me. The prices here feel reasonable and I always leave satisfied with my haircut! They're pretty efficient here too. I haven't tried any of their other services so I can't comment on that, but I'm definitely willing to based on the haircuts I get here. read more

I had a great experience here getting an all over color with Nadine! If you're looking to dye your hair brown, she does an awesome job. I'd definitely recommend going and doing a color consult first which made the day I came in for the appointment pretty straight forward. Nadine was friendly, fun and super efficient throughout and I loved my result. I'm leaving town soon, but I definitely will book with Nadine to get my hair done again next time I'm here. Clean, bright, salon with friendly staff. Definitely a great place to get your hair taken care of, especially if you have Asian hair. read more

Highly recommend Nadine. She did an amazing job fixing my botched balayage from a different salon. My hair was two different colors and streaky. Nadine carefully analyzed the colors and chose an amazing color to touch up my balayage and balance the different shades. I'm super happy with the result. The touch up was really affordable too. read more

Nadine is so talented and easy to talk to! Her consultation was thorough and she asked all of the right questions. I love my hair and can't wait to come back in a couple months for another haircut. I highly recommend her. Thanks, Nadine! read more

Booking was simple. I was quickly greeted and attended to. I felt like I was in and out in no time. The price was fair and it's been my favorite haircut! read more

Haircut before prom. Always friendly greetings and clean environment. The stylist I booked him with wasn't there but the other stylist who cut his hair was good. Men of few words for sure but know what they're doing. We will be back. read more

Was really excited to come in today and get my nails done, but they couldn't make it happen unfortunately. The place itself is bright and lively and very busy for a Thursday at 2pm - all great signs! I had scheduled to get gel x nails done and in scheduling, I couldn't find an option to remove the nails or just do a rebase, so before scheduling, I made sure to note that I already had nails on. I arrived 10 minutes early and after about 5 minutes of waiting after my apportionment time was supposed to begin, I was told that she only had a 30 minute slot and therefore wouldn't have time to take them off AND do them. Super bummed out as I've had these nails for 3 weeks now and desperately need to get them done. They have great reviews for hair, so maybe I'll come back and see how that goes - big maybe, but will probably find somewhere else for nails. read more

This salon houses many different stylists and offers many different services so the rating is kinda a consummate. I mostly want to put info out there for anyone looking for stylists who can work with asian hair especially since Vincent from Lilac has been closed for years. I had simple bob cuts from Jafet and Cristela using templates of my own previous haircut (so I know these are doable). The results were just awful. The cutting techniques were outdated, the end style was ugly layers. I carried them for months and felt very uncomfortable and self-aware the whole time. Christina on the other hand did a nice job, it's a hair I can live with. I have been travelling to LA and NY for haircuts previously, but I was determined to find a stylist locally, I think I will stick with Christina from now on. 5 stars for Christina, zero star for Jafet, his cut was worth about $25, two stars for Cristela, that cut's maybe worth $40 (but she's very patient and very nice). Four stars for the salon, it's clean and has nice ambient, and the price is reasonable, for Christina. read more

I have been coming here to get my black Asian hair dyed. They have bleaching agents in their hair dye so you don't need to bleach your dark hair first to go lighter. This is an Asian owned salon that I heard has a lot of minority patients bc they know how to work with black hair! The salon is located next to a brewery. I haven't had trouble street parking for free. I've had 4 diff stylists- all have done a great job with my hair. One of them did mess up and I ended up at the salon twice for a total of 6 hours but she fixed it with no extra charge and was super nice. I go in to get my hair overall dyed. Every time my roots grow out, I get the roots died and then the rest of my hair toned. I have long hair so it used to cost me $150 plus tip and now it's $175 plus tip (they raised the rates). It usually takes about 3.5 hours (ahhh!) But my hair looks great afterwards. It unfortunately fades to a copper hue in a couple months but that's what happens I guess. They offer tea water or coffee. I like the Kroger brand sweet cinnamon spice tea with honey. I really really hate their bathroom door lock. Lol it's unnecessarily complicated. Overall I like this place and the staff I have received services from have all been very friendly (and young, early 20s). read more

Shout out to Son! If you need a fresh cut with a clean fade, hit this man up! His attention to detail and expertise are next level. He knows how to cut Asian hair really well, and I can't recommend him enough! read more

I took my son to get his haircut and his stylist, Son, was so awesome. My son said that this was the first time he went in to get his haircut and came out happy because he got the cut he wanted. Thank you so much Son & Salon Joa! read more

I love Christine. The salon is awesome, non discript from the outside but really a great place. Very clean, nail salon and the coolest staff. It's legit cool staff. They're nice, helpful and hip. Get yourself a mimosa and relax whilst waiting. They are busy but that's a great sign. You can easily book online and choose your stylist and from the menu of things desired. See Christine W. She's the shit. I swore that when I moved from CA that I wanted to fly back to my stylist anytime I needed a cut and was completely serious, but Christine completely changed that desire. Now I actually wish I could fly back to CO just to use her! read more

End of a business relationship by the Salon Owner. Before I leave this review, I have "receipts" and an email exchange to back this up. I'm a working man and have two businesses. I've never had a bad review (not even one) since I've been a business man. Just received a gleaming review about how great my customer service is. So I know how to treat people and I know how customers should be treated. Hoa sends me an email after he saw me in his chair 4 days prior. Didn't say a word to me. That's fine. I get my haircut with the salon every 10 days. And have been for over a year. There have been times when I had to cancel (only due to work and a Covid scare). Each time, I call and offer (they NEVER had to ask) to pay for my appointment. A few times Hoa turned down my payments. On 11/9 and 11/26 I noticed my payments were higher. No communication from the salon or Hoa about it. So I paid it and tipped and kept it pushing. After the 11/26 appointment I called and said I noticed I was charged for "the mens long layer cut". I'm a black man with a short haircut with a fade. The recipient told me 3 times that the change was right since I had long hair. We both chuckled and I started again "ma'am I'm a black man with short hair". She and I were BOTH confused of the charge. Lack of communication from Hoa to me and this lovely receptionist. I book my appointment for 12/6 and choose "The Skin Fade". Days later I noticed it changed to "The Mens Long Layer Cut". I called and the receptionist changed it back. Again we both laughed about the "long layer cut" on a black man. Hilarious. Then I get a vague email from Hoa discontinuing our professional relationship without specifics. I had to ask him why. He started I was constantly canceling and I was rude to his staff last week. Which was not true. His staff as been EXTREMELY friendly to me. More than him. But I don't need him to be extremely friendly to me. Here's what I think happened: it is his right to raise his price on me and deny service. 100%. I think he threw a fit that he couldn't "get one over again" on raising the price without letting the customer know. Hoa, have that direct conversation with your customer(s). You mentioned in your email about being a business man and having morals. You handled this poorly as a business man. BUT ... EVERYONE ... where he lacks in communication skills, he makes up in haircuts. Brother man can fade! Best of luck to you. Thank you for your services to this point. Mazel! read more

I came in a month ago to get my hair cut and to give Salon Joa a try. I'm so happy I did because I have finally found my new hair stylist-- or should I say HAIR ARTIST. Christina is truly an artist, she fixed my split ends this month and worked magic on my hair that had turned brassy. My hair looks like the ads for Guy Tang . Christina has also made sure to be 100% completely honest about how to keep my hair integrity and communicative about what's the best solution to keep my hair healthy while bleaching it. She's even helped me figure out a plan to slowly bring my hair up the levels without having to worry about mass amounts of breakage and damage. I'm so thankful! Thanks Christina and Salon Joa! read more

Before coming to salon Joa, I got my hair done for the first time at another salon. The other salon completely ruined my hair (first pic... and that was 2 days after getting it done) and left me regretting ever trying to color my hair.

One of the things I hate doing whenever moving to a new place is finding a new barber. It took several bad haircuts when I was in Seattle, but it didn't take much to find a place when I moved to Denver. For some reason I would go to barbers where they did not cut my cowlick well so when my hair grows, I would have a bunch of hair sticking out and this seems to be a problem with stylists who don't cut a lot of asian hair. One haircut with Hoa later and I'm a regular! All I did was showed a photo of my previous hairstyle and he got to work. Hoa is quick yet precise. I've never had a bad haircut with him. He definitely is an expert in his craft and he's very relaxed and down to earth. The staff here are friendly and they do get busy. I've also never seen a business take so much time cleaning and making sure customers and their staff are safe during this COVID pandemic. Highly recommend! read more

Best salon ever! I have super short hair which I cut every 3 weeks, so 3 things are important to me: 1. Good haircut (when it's short, every mistake shows.) 2. Good vibe (I don't like snotty salons.) 3. Good value (I can't afford to pay a fortune every 3 weeks.) Luckily, Salon Joa checks every box. Christina is a great stylist who listens - and, more importantly, remembers! - my requests each visit. She's also super friendly and easy to talk to. The salon is clean, well designed, and relaxing. And they must have minimal turnover because I've seen the same friendly staff every 3 weeks for the past 2.5 years. That's a sign of good management. Looking for a great, down-to-earth salon with reasonable pricing? You've found it! read more

Both hair cuts I've gotten here have been amazing. The downsides are expense and wait time. All their stylists are so good, expect at least a 2-4 week wait.

Like plan your haircuts and especially hair color for the whole year or at least on the way out. And yes they know Asian hair! And their colorists can do ANYTHING! read more

I just had my service done on Thursday (10/20/2016) with Jay and I wanted to give myself a few days to see how the color looked post-salon. Sadly, I am very disappointed in my results. I had gone in and met with Jay at a consultation appointment (I highly recommend doing this) a few weeks prior and got an idea for how much what I wanted would cost and then set an appointment for my color and cut service. My starting point for my hair was roughly 1-1 1/2" +/- of regrowth (I am a natural medium-light neutral blonde with gold undertones) with the majority of my hair an icy basically white platinum. From a having the platinum color done previously at another salon, I had some mild banding mid shaft and discoloration from mid shaft to the ends (basically the upper 1/3 of my hair was white platinum and the lower 2/3rds were more yellow). REQUESTED: Originally at my consultation I had requested the banding to be fixed, all over color on the roots, and to have an even tone root to ends. I didn't want to be white or grey, but needed to remain very bright as in the summers I am an Elsa look-alike and would need to return to the icy blonde come summer. At my actual appointment, we decided that to avoid upkeep through the winter Jay would balayage my roots (basically creating a shadow root) but bring the brightness all the way up to frame my face. The rest of my original request did not change (fix the banding and have an even tone for all of the area that wasn't left natural, not white or grey blonde). RESULT: My hair lifted ultra light/white. Jay used a toner that I haven't had used on my hair before and that he had very little experience using. My hair ended up bright white tinged with violet at the top, yellow tinged at mid-shaft, and grey for the last 1/3. Not a fan. The balayage did not turn out the way I expected, instead of a shadow root and face framing highlight; the line of demarcation had been blurred slightly but nothing more. The banding is still present though less obvious (yay toner). The most surprising is that the toner actually changed my natural root color to be more brassy and warm... basically meaning my hair will have to be re-toned and touched up again instead of being able to just grow out. I waited to review because Jay had stated that the violet tones and grey tones would dissipate... they have not. Jay is great to work with and just for his bubbly personality I wish I could give a 5 star review. But for the money, I am not pleased and am disappointed with my results. read more

My daughter has been going to Jo for some time now and convinced me to get my eyebrows done. I'm 60 years old and was a bit worried that I was too old for something like that but My daughter reassured me I would love it! I did! I got my eyebrows Micro- bladed( I think that's what you call it) and I can't believe what a difference having eyebrows every day you don't have to worry about is just soo amazing!! Jo was patient, courteous, and very kind. Amazing customer care! If you are looking to have amazing eyebrows go to Jo, she's amazing read more

Update- it's only been 1 week and my hair color has completely faded (GONE!) and my nails look like crap. Very disappointing and a huge waste of time and money. --------------------------------------------------- Original review: Just got home from spending a nice Saturday afternoon at Salon Joa. Found this place on Yelp and made a last minute appointment this morning and was so happy they could fit me in. Hair color by Felicia: she did a GREAT job! I felt like she really listened to what I wanted and took her time. My hair turned out with rich even color that was so silky smooth after she blow dried that she didn't even have to use a flat iron. Very impressed! Eyebrow wax by Felicia - great job. Gel mani - I think the gal's name was Pa. She was super sweet & also did a really great job. My only negative feedback is about the pricing. I don't mind paying for quality services, but I was surprised by being charged more than I expected when I got to the register. Hair color advertised on their website as $50 but they tried to charge me $60 because they had to use extra color? My hair barely touches my shoulders - it is not that long and I don't understand why they tried to charge extra. Gel mani advertised on their website as $35 INCLUDING gel soak off, but they charged me $40 and said the soak off was an extra $5. I didn't argue because they already adjusted the price of the hair color, but this was wrong. $40 for a gel mani just seems way too expensive. I'll have to stick with my regular nail shops on CO Blvd that charge $30. Overall my experience was really great though. Very nice modern, chic, clean, and comfortable environment and everyone was really friendly. I will definitely be back for Felicia to do my hair again! read more

A group and I were visiting Colorado from Texas. I lived in Aurora for 3 years to attend Aveda Institute and so i moved back to my home state and town where unfortunately the pickins are SLIM when it comes to getting your hair done. A friend recommended salon joa. I called to see who was available for a Friday and Jay was. I researched/creeped Jay's Instagram and was blown away with what he did. I went in letting him do what he felt right for my hair. The salon is amazing, the sanitation practices are on point ( important to me ), everyone there is so beautiful and NICE they make sure you're taken care of. Jay made sure I had a drink, he explained the process and I feel like we may be best friends ?! I would fly out to Denver just to get my hair done by him. So talented and while there took the time to ask about me and my life. He is so great. See the pic of what he created with my hair! read more

Came here for my BRIDAL MAKEUP and up-do. Jo did my makeup and another girl did makeup for my best friend and my mom. All of our makeup was FLAWLESS!! I am so glad I paid to have my makeup professionally done. It was so worth it! I came for a trial and then again on the wedding day. Each visit was $100 - but this seemed to be in line with other professional make up artists. The makeup photographs well, too. She uses professional grade stuff that won't reflect off the flash or make you look like a clown in person. You look natural in person and in the photographs. Not many artists get that right. Jo is so sweet! We chatted the whole time. She listened to what I wanted my makeup to look like and she nailed it! They also have a full bar, so you can have a cocktail, wine or champagne while you wait or as you're being helped. My up-do was exactly what I wanted, too. 4 others got our hair done (just a wash and style) - we were all very pleased with the outcome. I definitely recommend this place for makeup and/or an up-do. read more

I like this salon as I have come a time or two in the past everyone is always nice and polite and my hair always comes out good plus it's close to home but recently they have had a new front desk girl with blue hair. She is so rude whenever I come in just says "name" not how are you or how's your day or would you like a drink, she always looks mad and unprofessional, as the first person you meet when you come in the salon it's a let down when your excited but she makes it seem like your bothering her. Also somehow she came up as a recommended person you may know on fb and it's weird to me that this would be a picture she would post in the salon Joa bathroom ‍ fitting I guess. Just thought the owner would want to know. read more

Salon Joa is incredible. This evening I had Xally color correct my green hair. The green in my hair has been an ongoing issue I have not been able to get rid of, and she was able to get the stubborn color out of my hair by creating this beautiful ombré. I cannot be more grateful for how thorough, patient, and caring Xally was. This place is highly recommended by me, it is even worse the extra money. I will most definitely be a returning customer. Thank you, again. read more

Crystal anointed my hair with color and I love the results. I started seeing her about a year ago when I moved nearby and was looking for a new stylist. She spent a good amount of time listening to me and checking out my hair before the initial haircut. I was really pleased with the results. Eventually I inquired about covering up my rapidly spreading get which I have never covered up. Crystal answered ask my questions and walked me through the process. I took the dive into hair color 6 months ago and I've been really happy with it. I appreciate the friendly feel of this salon. Everyone I've walked in, I am greeted warmly and offered a drink.

I was going back and forth trying to decide if I wanted to say anything at all but as I've been growing increasingly frustrated since my appointment, I decided I should. I received a new full set at Salon Joa and am incredibly disappointed with my experience. Customer service wise, it was one of the most awkward nail appointments I've had. When I walked in, the gal at the front desk wash polite but JUST enough. Right away, I just didn't feel welcomed in. My nail artist never introduced herself, never greeted me, just told me to sit at her chair. She didn't want to talk I guess because the only conversation she offered was about her recent breakup and lack of makeup on that day. My entire appointment I felt like a burden to my nail artist. My actual results were stunning at first, so I figured I'd book ahead and try her again. Maybe she was just having a bad day? However multiple nails started to lift after only 5 days and some have completely popped off in less then 10 days. $80 down the drain for only 5 days of wear. :( read more
