    BEST HAIRCUT OF MY LIFE. This was my first time trying this place. I saw that they actually had reasonably priced guy perms and that had me sold. I have very straight Asian hair that is often difficult to work with. Especially for mainland barbers. I wanted to try out a new style so I went for a Wave perm. She executed it perfectly. I showed her a picture and she got it 1:1 accuracy. This is a highly underrated place. It definitely sold me as a customer. This shop has been alive for 6 years and I hope it stays open for another 100 because I just found my new main barber. I will come back for sure. Below are pics of the haircut.

    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 :)))

    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.

    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!

    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'm very happy with the men's haircut I got. Afterwards, she showed and taught me how to style my hair as well. I'll go back soon!

    I've been going to Dee for over 5 years now -- even back before he opened his own salon -- and…read morethere's a reason I've stayed this loyal. I usually go to him for both my haircuts and balayage, and every single time I leave loving how my hair turns out. His skills are truly top tier compared to other stylists on the island. I tried several hair stylists around Oahu before finding him, and none of them compared. Dee is incredibly talented, but what I appreciate most is his honesty. He'll always tell you what will actually look best for you rather than just doing something trendy that may not suit you. His salon is also absolutely adorable. The space has beautiful pink décor with gold accents that gives it such a warm, stylish vibe (definitely feels like his wife's aesthetic!). Both Dee and his wife are so sweet and welcoming, and their energy makes you feel like more than just a client -- it makes you want to keep coming back long-term. For anyone trying to find the salon: it's located on the 10th floor of the Ala Moana Center office building. The entrance is directly across from Genki Sushi inside the mall, which makes it really easy to locate once you know where to go. Most importantly, I trust Dee completely with my hair. That's why I don't go to any other hair artists or stylists on Oahu. He genuinely cares about his clients and about the quality of his work. He takes pride in his art and never wants you to leave disappointed. On top of that, he's a great conversationalist -- and I say that as someone who is naturally pretty introverted. Every appointment feels like catching up with a friend. Dee is also someone who carries a lot of wisdom, and seeing him always feels like a breath of fresh air. If you're looking for someone you can truly trust with your hair, Dee is it.

    Just got my hair cut with Mai for the first time today! I just moved to the area not too long ago…read moreand I had a rough 2 weeks at work and told myself that I was due for a beauty run/self-care (in this case, a haircut. My ends are so dry!) I was nervous at first but everyone especially Mai was SO welcoming, even offered me snacks and water. I explained what I wanted and she added her input - I didn't even have to show her a picture and my hair was exactly how I wanted it. She truly made me feel so welcomed, it was easy to converse with her. Her compliments made my day as well ~ I've never experienced this great of a service in a while. I had to hug her AGAIN after we were done lol. I have found my new, established hair dresser!! Will be taking my sister here as well, when the time comes. THANK YOU SO MUCH, MAI! YOU MADE MY WEEK

I came alot earlier than my appointment bc I read on other reviews that parking was difficult...so I made my appt in mid day, and parking was fine... Love it! Will definitely return! As Im waiting I notice all customers were loyal customers...regulars...came from all over for a cut by Mai...wow! So I gladly wait... I waited in a massage chair! $1 for 5 mins...sure! Then I cruised awhile, read some mags that were right on the side of me...with a wide selection too!...Then I added another $1. My turn comes....and she totally engages to what I was saying...talked with me and really tried to understand what I wanted... I havent had a hair cut for a year...got pregnant and my hair went wild!!! Long and out of whack really lol!!! Needless to say, I wanted my hair still long...but wanted all the crazies out...and she did it! MAI did it!! My hair was amazing!! Seriously, healthy hair, kept my length, and felt great!!! Sooooooo happy!!! Soooo lovely!!! Definitely will be back!!
