Queenie T.

I've been to a few top rated asian hair salon, like M-irror, salon Mei, salon Ava and soho salon. Sandy is by far the best hair stylist i have ever met in hawaii. If you are a FOB (from Korea, Japan, China, Taiwan and Hong Kong) or if you likeK-pop artists style, she is as close as you can get to a stylist you can find from your homeland cause she understand what we need and how to work our hair. I almost don't wanna write this review because she is so good and i wanna keep it as a secret, but she is a young entrepreneur and i admire her work ethics. She is not in this for the money. She charge a moderate price but does a fantastic job! Now call her for an appointment ASAP before she become too popular. ------------------------ Been seeing Sandy for almost 2 years now. She's still amazing!! So i decided to add more pics to support her work :)))

This is my to go place for any hair related issues! I have been going to Sandy's Beauty Salon for few years now and it never disappoints me. You can get any haircuts, perms, hair coloring, and hairstyling done there! If you want the latest style or Korean style haircuts, this is the place to go! The service is very professional and friendly, as they offer you coffee or tea. The workers there are very nice as well. I recently had my wedding and it was a headache trying to find a hair stylist that gets the job done for my hair since it is super straight and could not hold. I went to Sandy's and my hair completed the wedding look and I had a memorable wedding. I believe she is one of the few stylist in Hawaii that does wedding hair styles. I also cut my hair super short recently and I am satisfied with the results making me look fresh. I would definitely recommend this place as I have already recommended some of my close friends to visits and they were satisfied as well. Sandy could speak both in Korean and English so it is very convenient!

Look at the lengths. Right side is half an inch longer. I had asked for layers, not an Asymmetrical cut

Where do I start? I didn't want to post a review, but now it's a month past when i got my hair cut by Sandy(at least I think it was her? She didn't introduce herself..., no name tag) and after my hair has grown out I realize just how much she messed my hair up. I'm broke I might have to just fix it myself somehow. So, aside from the fact that A) this place is weird to get into because you need a lock code to get into the building & there's homeless out front the building in the driveway doing drugs. Also hard to reach number when trying to get in, as the stylist is also the assistant it seems? I know it's a small salon, but They need a front desk/receptionist hello! B) it is so small and not well ventilated and hot, so ur just in there with all the chemical smells from treatments. C) I believe they maybe are not adept at helping non-Korean customers because the communication was almost null. She asked for a picture of what I wanted, couple basic questions here and there. I really think the language barrier is what screwed me here. She totally butchered my hair. It looked good after a blow out and hair straightening with flat iron, but I realized after just a couple weeks. She gave me a hairstyle I didn't ask for. Never did I ask for an Asymmetrical hair cut, but that's what she gave me essentially. And it looks very weird when I have in a pony tail. Basically I can only have my hair up, and even if I had a flat iron and wanted to style it, everyone would see it is not even on the front. I have slight OCD: this really bothers me! Again: NOT WHAT I wanted. Was supposed to be simple rounded shoulder length Bob. Like Adele. Very disappointed. Don't go here If you are not Asian unless u speak Korean, they won't be able to figure out how to communicate and properly cut your hair. She could have used Google translate if she was unsure of what I wanted, or perhaps she just isn't as great as everyone says she is.

Pomade hair style with two block cut on the sides and back.

I have been a loyal customer here for over a year or two now. My girlfriend has also came here when visiting from Korea and she was very pleased with the hair service. My hair style is not very complicated but there isn't many salons out here in Hawaii that knows how to do men's Korean hairstyles. Ever since day 1 she has been very friendly and professional with my hair and I have been exceptionally pleased with her. If you are someone who is looking for a great hair style and an excellent service, come visit Sandy's and the price is also very affordable! Thank you Sandy for everything

I always satisfied with her excellent skills and services. I had hair clinic and dyed hair. She knew my concern about hair and always helped me make a decision.

I got paired with Leslie and she was amazing and did an extremely relaxing treatment which started off with examining your scalp with some kind of tv looking thing. Kinda fascinating seeing my scalp under the hair. The scalp massage was SO relaxing one of the best ones I've had and I did a scalp treatment in Korea. In Korea they sent me to some kind of massage room, but the one that they give you here with their hands was just as effective and dare I say even better. Leslie also styled my hair very nicely and recommended what products to use as well as care tips based on your scalp/hair type. She is very talented. I highly recommend! I would come back again! :)

Updated review: Oak Monsarrat is my and my daughter's go-to salon for good reason! The salon is…read moreneat, clean, and clients well-spaced out. I've tried a number of different stylists over the years: Yoshi, Sachiko, Marine, Sally, and Tiffany, and ALL have been terrific: kind, courteous, and total pros. The shampoo and head+neck massage are truly restorative and relaxing. Stylists ask questions about how you want your hair cut and execute very airy, light styles that bring out the natural movement and beauty of hair and which have staying power, even if you don't go into the salon often, like me. Appointments run on schedule, and I was out within an hour. Highly recommended! Original review: 6/26/21: More accolades for Yoshi, proprietor and head stylist at OAK Monsarrat Salon! Had wanted to cut my waist-length hair since before the pandemic, so decided to give this salon a try, based on the glowing recs from a co-worker and Yelp. So glad I did! Booking couldn't be easier: online, so you can see all available dates/time slots, select your stylist, if desired, and check off what services you want. You get an electronic confirmation of your appointment, once submitted. Pricing was reasonable ($50= women's shampoo/dry+haircut) and transparent--both the website and online booking indicate costs. First-time customers receive 20% off, and the salon offers a loyalty club for additional discounts and a free hair treatment after 10 visits. I opted for whichever stylist was available, but got lucky and happened to get Yoshi. OAK Monsarrat is located in the same strip mall that houses Bogart's Café and da Cove, so parking is convenient and free. Arrived early, but was courteously greeted and seated right away, and offered an iPad to browse styles or watch Netflix while waiting. The salon is elegantly minimalist and clean, with partitions between clients and COVID safety protocols observed. Staff and clients are masked, and social distancing observed. Yoshi's personable, professional, a good communicator, skilled, and efficient: he took me on time, and I was done within an hour. I wanted a low-maintenance, wash-and-wear style that would look good pulled back, French-braided, or worn loose, and he delivered a great, flattering cut that met those specs--his length estimate was spot-on. For those who're not fans of the shampoo component of salon visits, Yoshi might very well convert you: washing was thorough and seamlessly executed, with a warm towel placed under your neck, and the scalp massage= sheer magic! Walked out of the salon, relaxed and rejuvenated, 18" of hair lighter, and very happy with my haircut, which I've received many compliments on! Today, I received a nice post-visit email, thanking me for my patronage and informing me of the salon's 10 day service guarantee, in case there were any issues or concerns--really appreciate that courteous touch and commitment to customer satisfaction! I enthusiastically recommend this salon and will definitely return! OAK MONSARRAT SALON Phone: 808-772-4216 URL: http://oak-salon.com

I got lucky and there was a spot but often this lot has none and the businesses in that strip mall are pretty popular.
