Juju is an absolute gem and really knows what she's doing when it comes to hair. She also speaks English pretty well so it is easier to communicate with her if you don't speak Chinese. Perms can take up to a couple hours so she also makes sure you keep up your stamina by offering you snacks and water/coffee. The service in general at this salon is pretty quick and efficient and thorough in terms of getting people in and out quickly.

I know Amber K ( the other reviewer) and asked her where she got her hair done because it does look super nice and she suggested Biyoshi after researching herself the best places to go. I went in with an appointment when it was opened and it does get busy fast so even though they do welcome walk-ins, I suggest making an appointment or calling ahead. With the hair style I had in mind, Andrea went at it and after cutting about ~10 inches off it looked amazing. I feel like a new person and am totally in love. Thanks Biyoshi!

LOOK NO FURTHER, your hair has found a home!…read more My hair is healthy because of Erin and her talented team. They even did my wedding hair which you can see in the photo! Where do I begin? Erin(the owner) This owner is the most hands-on salon owner I've ever come to know. If she's not personally working on your hair, she does her best to make sure no one walks out dissatisfied by double checking and keeping a watchful eye. Atmosphere Welcoming, beautiful and CLEAN. Team- Then know natural hair! They are learned hair professionals that are NOT stingy with home care advice. COVID-19 Safety Measures Upon arrival my temperature was taken 3 times by Erin herself. They have limited the capacity and have plexiglass installed. Masks are a must, of course. Price You don't just pay for how you look at Erin's...you pay for the lifespan of your hair!!!! It can be expensive BUT I don't trust cheap tattoos or sky diving trips so when it comes to my hair's health I am no different. Pay now, avoid hair ruin later...just saying.

Sometimes one place would give me a good haircut and then mess it up the next time. I've been going to Thoai for about a year now, and he's easily the best and most skilled hairdresser I've ever had out of any I've been to throughout my life! Thoai was also able to perceive that my hair would look even better with a perm. He was very patient and convinced me to get a perm and he was completely right, my hair looks really great permed and is so much easier to manage as well. He also does a really great job with perms in addition to regular haircuts. If you're an Asian guy who's had trouble finding the right stylist, I can't recommend Thoai enough. He's excellent, highly skilled, and extremely consistent.

They took their time and made sure everything looked good before finishing up. The haircut came out clean, and I'm happy with the overall result.

First, I have to tell you that Fenny is an absolute gem. Fenny will bend over backwards to…read moreaccommodate you. I wandered down here because I had some downtime before my Amtrak train left and the store was closed, but I called anyway. She was at home, but she jumped in the car and told me she would be at her store in 30 minutes! I was looking for a high quality haircut without all the pompous trappings that usually come with it, and Fenny delivered. I got an awesome layered cut for my very long hair for under $50 ($60 with tip). I will be back for sure.

I didn't have a good experience here. I have straight hair and a simple haircut. I told Fenny what…read moreI was looking for, which is thick ends with a few long layers and some front framing pieces, and 2 inches off. I DID provide several reference photos at the start of the visit, and we discussed them. I told her I didn't care about dead ends and I didn't want to go too short. She is one of those hair dressers who ONLY cares about dead ends and proceeded to chop off 4 inches of my hair. When I tried to explain the difference between what I wanted and what she had done she insisted that I must have misunderstood (? I've been getting the same haircut for years?). Then she tried saying that I didn't state what I wanted at the start. Finally, she said that it was my hair's fault, for being too tangly (???). I left the salon in tears and with lopsided hair with far more layers than I wanted and thin ends. I think she probably is used to giving similar haircuts to most of her clientele which is just not the haircut I wanted. Also, she still charged me $60 (versus a $70 original price) despite the fact that this was not at all what I wanted. I walked into a salon down the street and before I'd even said anything a stylist looked at the back of my head and said "oh girl. What happened to your hair?" It was THAT uneven and choppy. The cherry on top of all of it is that I tried pointing out a hole in the layers to Fenny, and she gaslit me and said 'oh that's just because your hair is pulled in front of your shoulders.' When I adjusted my hair at the salon I ran to to have them fix my hair, the stylist immediately said 'why is there a hole there?' It was wild. I left a review on Google too, and Fenny once again seemed unable to apologize without somehow implying that I made a mistake by not communicating clearly (despite the reference photos I provided and the instructions I gave before, during, and after the cut). Please consider going somewhere else unless you're interested in a cut that absolutely removes all dead ends and includes a ton of layers.

She asked what I wanted, 2-3 inches off with layers and got right to work. She worked quickly but precisely, no sloppiness here. When I asked for it a little shorter, she advised against saying the layers would shorten it a bit plus my hair was curly. I'm glad I went with her recommendation. I was in and out in 40 minutes and paid a total of $40, $30+$10 tip. This is a great place for an affordable haircut for those with curly hair! I'm just visiting but I'll keep Salon Monet in mind for next time I'm in the area. :) cheers

So she was supposed to cut them, give me a relaxer, and style my hair in a pixie style and cut. I did not receive that. And the worker lied and said she can do it when she quoted me. Just for me to cry in the chair telling her I don't like my hair. And she said to me "To get the style you want you have to do that at home" "I no do that here because of Botox treatment" and I payed $250 for her to cut my hair and give me a texturizer, and buzz cutters the back of me head. This is a lesson for me, obviously I shouldn't have gone to a Hispanic for a culturally black style. However she should have been upfront in terms of what she knew and didn't. And she also tried to up charge me at the end an extra 30 dollars because I came with my locs in my head still...
