This is an awful place. I was 10 mins late because maps had me take a wrong turn. This stylist called Michael acted like he the only hair stylist in this whole wide world very rudely refusing to take me even after me explaining it was a simple trim that I needed. He offered to do "consultation" instead. This is a damn haircut not a medical procedure that it needs to be complicated like this. Totally customer unfriendly. Never going back read more

Michael and the crew at Talc are the best- so professional, friendly and talented! I've been a client for over 13 years.

I have been going to Talc for 14 years and to Michael for 16-17 years. He is fantastic! And the Talc team is just as great. Michael takes the time to listen and then makes suggestions and every time my hair turns out perfectly. As long as Michael is working, I will be asking him to do my hair. There is no one better in my opinion! read more

I was referred to Michael a few years ago. Michael is a professional to the highest degree. During his consultation, he provides different options to treat/color/cut the hair. My hair looks natural and beautiful every time I visit and it lasts! Michael adjusts his approach based on the season, my preferences, and other factors. Michael attends professional fairs and performs a thorough research on products he uses. I had to cancel a hair cut portion of my appointment because of unexpected call at work a few minutes prior to my appointment and Michael refused to charge me for it despite my offer. Michael is not just an excellent professional but a decent and honest person. I very fortunate to know him. read more

Amy has been cutting my hair for years, and is amazing. Always does a wonderful job.

Always prompt and a no fuss good hair trim from Amy Pleasant salon and always clean and neat read more

Amy has cut my hair every two weeks for the past two years. My business man hairdo is easy for Amy but I've had the opportunity to see so many of her customers come through the salon. She is a true artist! She blends color so beautifully and so naturally that I can always tell which woman was her client. The bottom line is Amy makes her clients hotter than they were before they sat in her chair. Cheryl at the front desk also makes the whole experience fun. This place does not disappoint. read more

Stylist Denise - 5 stars Front desk- TBD, but willing to give it another shot read more

Michelle has been doing my hair for the past 10 years or so, and has perfected it each time. She has done all 3 of my teenage girls since they were little.... I wouldn't trust anyone but her. So many people have asked me about my color and I have referred them to Michelle and Talc. I am so glad that I have found one of the best hidden stylist in NJ. read more

I've been going to Talc for a while now, the entire staff is great but Chelsy is amazing! I had horrible highlights from "Markirk" in Whitehouse Station, my hair was an awful combination of orange and yellow. Chelsy corrected it in one session (the stylist at Markirk said it would take several sessions). I drank a couple glasses of wine and cut my own hair; Chelsy corrected it. She is friendly, professional, edgy and very talented. I will no longer let anyone else cut or dye my hair, and it's never looked better! She even went out of her way to teach me how to do beach waves with a curling iron and a flat iron! She is passionate and that reflects in her work. I highly recommend her services! read more

Talc is a really professional, great salon where you are always treated well and made comfortable by all of the staff. Sheri is an amazing colorist who I have followed wherever she goes for the past 20 years, and total strangers have stopped me to tell me how great my color is all the time (red/auburn). I will not go to anyone else, and she gives a great cut also. They are going above and beyond with safety and precaution during this time of CoVid-19 so everyone feels safe and comfortable going there. I highly recommend the salon to anyone, female and male.

Chelsea's the best! After a botched highlight job at another salon, I called Talc and Chelsea washed my hair with blue shampoo free of charge to tone it. I came back a few days later for proper highlights and keratin. read more

I absolutely love my stylist Michelle! I have incredibly fine, curly/frizzy hair and had been unable to find a stylist that could give me a good flattering cut. Michelle is awesome, she worked with me and actually figured out how to make my hair look amazing and fit my face. She's always up to date on the latest styles and is a complete professional. Her coloring skills are fantastic, a true artist. She did my hair and make up for my wedding as well and I couldn't have been happier. I followed her over to TALC Salon, and would follow her anywhere!! I highly recommend Michelle, you won't be disappointed! read more

Took my picky and sensitive 11 year old son here and we were both pleased! Thx Amy!!! Cute haircut!

Been here once and never again. Receptionist continued to talk to staff not even acknowledging I was standing there. Stylist was horrible no personality and only knew how to do a basic cut which was not great and was considered to be an experience stylist.. NOT and charged a $100.00. So NOT Worth it. read more

The WORST place. Overpriced. Dated and rude stylists. Awful. Are there negative stars you can give?

Curly haired ladies, come here and see Denise. She has been cutting my hair for five years and I have followed her from salon to salon. So far Talc is my favorite. Denise is a wonderful stylist and she really understands curly hair. She also did everybody's hair for my daughters wedding. She made us all look beautiful. read more

I went for my first visit today after seeing all the reviews on Yelp. I had the fortune of seeing Denise who gave me some fabulous tips on how to manage my wavy/curly hair. Lo and behold, my hair looks like it did when I was 16! I went home and raved about this salon and then found out that it's the same salon my husband has been trying to get me to go for the past 3-4 years! He's been a faithful patron for 15 years and now I know why. read more

I started going here about 4 years ago, I have used Amy, Tina and Chelsea for cut, color, keratin and blow outs. They are all amazing. I have since moved and now I drive the 40 minutes to go there, even though there are a ton of 5 star salons near my new home. It's a clean friendly salon with wonderful stylists and they used the top of the line products which makes a huge difference in styling. read more

Great salon: Friendly, comfortable atmosphere, talented staff, well run. Anna has been my stylist for 10++ years - I have followed her from salon to salon. I also travel from NYC just to see her since I have not been able to find anyone else who takes the time to understand, treat and style my hair. She is a true artist, top Goldwell colorist and trainer, and gives an excellent cut. I highly recommend Anna and Talc Salon. read more

Complained about haircut They saw review i left They Then called to apologize Then offered to refund 50 for haircut I still have to let my hair grow out another 3 inches before it can be fixed So needless to say I m not going back I hate when this happens I spend a lot of money on my hair Between 2x a month color ,cuts , blow outs .etc It amounts to over 400 a month I did remove the review Because its easier to be kind Kinda ........ read more

Since my last review I've been at TALC at least four times. I only wanted a color each time, and did not have time to blow dry since I was on my lunch hour. In spite of the fact that I stressed I was on my lunch hour, I still ended up waiting for my stylist. She wanted to chat and catch up, and again I stressed I was on my lunch hour. She would even stop working to make a point! Every single time this happened, and to add insult to injury, the person who rinsed me left color along my hairline! Even though I made it a point to mention it every time when I checked out, it happened THREE times. Finally I just gave up. Too bad, I was hoping that I had come across a hidden gem. For $70 I could get a cut, color and blow dry done properly at a place where they listen rather than letting me walk out with a wet head and color staining my hairline. Hey coworkers, guess where I went on my two hour lunch? read more

Nice ambiance. Friendly staff. And Micheal Paccuci has to be God's gift to hair. I don't want to say how phenomenal he is because I don't want to ever have to wait to see him, but he truly is the most incredible hairdresser known to the world of hair. There is no need to go to NYC, when Micheal exists in NJ. I will follow him anywhere. Anyone I have sent to him has said the same. Cut, color, blow dry,- you name it Micheal can do it. You will not be disappointed with TALC read more

Talc salon is amazing! I have the worst hair on the planet and when I leave Talc, my hair is gorgeous and shiny. Everyone is very professional and nice as well. Highly recommend Talc! read more

I had a hair cut last month May 2013, with a hairstylist that I would not like to bring up her name. I'm not trying to hurt her reputation however I'm not pleased with the customer service. I called back a few weeks later and I said I was not happy with the hair cut. I have a long hair asked for layers and I didn't get what I wanted and it took the hairstylist 3 hrs 30 min and by the time she finished the cut, my hair was dry and tangled and made the blow dry so painful. I wanted to go in for correction but they told me we have to charge you for another haircut which is $85. I said but I paid that last month and I never had a haircut 2 months in a row. I was told if I'm not happy with the haircut I should go to another hair salon. Is this a good customer service? read more

Just had my hair cut and colored by Connie at TALC salon in Far Hills, NJ and I was thoroughly impressed! For the first time in a long time I love my hair style and color too! The salon is spotlessly clean, warm, comfortable and tastefully appointed. Cheryl at the front desk was super friendly and accommodating. I had such a great experience, everyone was so nice and soooo professional that I decided to stay for a facial. Gloria the esthetitian did a fantastic job. Best facial I've ever had!! Very talented staff, very professional, warm and welcoming! I highly recommend TALC! read more

I've been going to Talc for several years now. Always an awesome experience. The salon is beautifully designed, the staff is professional, and the workstations are always immaculate. My stylist Melissa is a talented individual - color, cut, style, and I come away happy every time. read more

I've been going to TALC salon since it opened. It's clean and always kept neat. The assistants are great, they are constantly working on keeping the workstations clean and "hair free". Tina is my stylist and she's amazing. She is as professional as they come! Her skills are amazing. She's always on time. she never makes you wait and you are her focus the entire time. Even when she has other clients in between you, she's on top of every minute of your process. She does a cut and color for me each visit and I've never had anything but fabulous reviews afterwards. I've been so happy, I've stayed with her for almost 10 years. Reception is also very professional. My hair is one of my best features, I only trust Tina and TALC with it! Give it try, you won't be disappointed!!! read more

I have thick dry hair and I am allergic to many things. Anna took the time to talk to me about my allergy and convinced me to try a different process that she was guessing would have a much less chance at bothering me. Much to my surprise it is beautiful and both her and Lucy made sure I was taken care of beautifully. Chelsea also came and asked if I needed water or a book during process. How wonderful! I also got to watch Anna counseling another lady on her color that was very blotchy (done at a different salon). Instead of doing only what she wanted (fix but more highlights) Anna explained how it could burn her hair and stress it if they put a process on top of her incorrect one. Anna worked also with her to calm the effect and worked out a plan for her to have healthy beautiful hair on a timeline and really did a great job fixing it to start. I suggest Anna the best color specialist I have ever seen. - so very very Happy! read more
