The Beauty Spot
Kim M.

The Beauty Spot is a cute, little salon on Waialae Ave. between 8th and 9th Ave., across Punchbowl Fender Works. Convenience is key, and for me this place is "la crème de la crème!" It's literally a hop, skip, and a jump away from my bachelorette pad (that I share with the bf. Hehe.) Lisa is the owner and she just opened up shop not too long ago. She's experienced, skillful, and one of the nicest (and funniest) human beings on the planet (that I've come across in my 25 years of life). My schedule is absolutely bananas and Lisa still manages to fit me in. In other words, she's very accomodating and flexible with appointment times. I believe she takes by appointment only, so give her a ring-a-ling at (808) 221-9605. I went here last week for a cut and I am very pleased! My hair feels great -- healthier, lighter, and more manageable. Lisa and I also talked about some future hairscaping plans and I am excited!! I should be back in a few weeks or so. Reasons I will establish myself as a "regular" at The Beauty Spot: 1. Convenience (and there's parking, but I just walk) 2. Lisa's incredible reputation and work 3. The picky bf went before me and was delighted with his cut 4. The Beauty Spot just opened, so everything is especially clean (and brand spankin' new) 5. Prices are beyond reasonable 6. Hair is important! Gotta keep myself lookin' good! Yelp 365 - #205/365

Need I say more? Call Randi, the hair magician:0)

The Beauty Spot has an eclectic flair, staff is warm and high vibing, and the patrons happy to be there! I've been searching for a "SPOT" that didn't leave me mumbling...its only hair, its only hair :0( If you've had a bad cut or process...you know what I'm talking about! Thank you Leeeeeee for introducing me to RAND the Cut & Color Magician! HAWAII, if you want to get your crop dusted, your do did, or your flip whipped, jump yo' butt in the hoopty, get on down to The Beauty Spot and ask for Randi, the hair magician! Much gratitude hair angel!

I always had a hard time finding a colorist, and I finally found Gabbi!! She was able to execute exactly what I wanted (picture helps!) and I am so elated how my color turned out! I am horrible at up keeping my color but she fixed it! Gabbi also cuts hair and make-up, so she does it all. She is very fair priced, easy to talk to, and I will definitely be back

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.

My go-to salon. Great location and easy to find parking…read more Yoyo regularly cuts and colors my hair. She's the best! Price is also reasonable.

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

Feels like home!! The two ladies both greeted me as I…read moreentered the door...just like home... 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!!
