The Colour Bar is a fantastic SI have been coming here for over a year. Gina does my hair and is truly one of the best. I personally haven't gone to Gabby but I watch while I'm there and the cuts, color and styles I've seen her do are perfect. Dominique also does hair and Julianna does the makeup. All the ladies ( Gabby, Gina, Dominique and Julianna) that work here are friendly, professional and very talented. Highly recommend giving them a try. read more

Dominique did wonders on my hair. Feels and looks great! Been a long time since I've left happy from a salon. Thank you! Saw makeup done too. Very nice! read more

The Colour Bar salon - Hair Salons Near Me - Belleville, New Jersey

Decided I wanted to do something different with my hair and chose this spot. I wanted to treat myself after salons being closed for so long. Not a good idea, I honestly feel robbed. Keep in mind this was my first professional salon experience where I went to color my hair and I was EXTREMELY disappointed. I showed a picture of what I wanted (3rd picture, I wanted the color and to go lighter, nothing crazy, was told it could be done as a partial balayage at the lower layer of hair and single process pull) and I left the salon after 3 hours and felt like literally NOTHING changed in my hair color other than like 6 added streaks of highlight. I paid $190 + tip to come out looking exactly the same. I don't really write reviews at all but I've never had such a disappointing experience before. I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt and wait a few days to see if MAYBE it would get lighter but it stayed the same. I didn't ask for anything extravagant. As a customer you want to feel amazing after leaving the salon and I just ended up feeling super stressed out because it was basically $200 down the drain. I'll be honest, the atmosphere was really nice my stylist was super sweet but I didn't get what I wanted. I reached out to them for a refund or some sort and they agreed that it didn't come out as expected, they weren't able to offer a refund but they did offer to redo it for free, but I declined because I really didn't want to be disappointed for a second time. I was never mentioned to me that I would have to maybe, possibly come back or that my hair wouldn't lighten in one sitting. I took a gamble going the first time but I don't think I'll come back again, wouldn't recommend to anyone either. First two pictures were after I got my hair done, third picture is what I asked for, last photo is what my hair looked like before my trip to the salon. read more

Extremely unprofessional service! They will not take ownership of their booking error and charged me a no show fee for the wrong date. They don't send any confirmation via text or email and conduct business verbally. I showed up with my sister, the day I scheduled the appointment (when we had a wedding). They said they would charge another fee and not refund the presumed no show fee! Disgusted by their lack of service. Would give negative stars if possible. read more

The Colour Bar salon - Updo by Gabby - Hair Salons Near Me - Belleville, New Jersey

LOVE THIS PLACE!!! Firstly, I hate those sinks where they wash your hair because they pinch your neck and make me feel like I'm choking. But not here!!! They've got these awesome supports that hold up the BACK OF YOUR HEAD and I could fully relax for the first time EVER. It was amazing. Nicole and I clicked. She's fabulous. The staff was super nice and very intelligent (not to mention had wonderful hair). When I asked for something g new but had no real ideas, Nicole helped me out. She assured me my post-pregnancy hair wasn't beyond help, and she was right. I look amazing and feel amazing. Price was incredibly reasonable. Will return for sure!!! read more

Good experience for sure. Solena is just the absolute greatest! She's the best at figuring out what type of look you're going for, and making sure you get what you want.

You definitely have to get your hair done here. read more

Messaged her several times she refuses to answer. Very unprofessional read more

Wow! I am still stunned by all of Julianna's talent. My sister treated me to a makeup class with Julianna this past Sunday. It was an awesome experience . It was so humbling and informative. Julianna gave me great tips and advice on how to use my own products for work and "night out" look. She gave me her contact info and a couple of suggestions on alternative brushes and products that may benefit my skin for my make up routine. I will definitely be going back for other services! read more

I walked in to the salon to first inquire about prices and met with Gina, who broke down all of their services and gave a really detailed explanation of all of the facets of hair coloring. I went back a few weeks later and had Baylayage done with Gina. My hair looks amazing! She's really talented. The studio itself was super friendly and in general, it was a really relaxed environment. All the stylists were really inclusive, and that made the experience that much better. I will be coming back here for sure. read more

I was looking for a new salon and this salon was recommended by a friend. I went this morning for the first time. Everyone was friendly and nice. The salon is cute and clean. Dominique did my balayage and cut my hair. She did an amazing job! She explained everything to me as she was about to do it. She showed me how much she would cut off my ends before she did it to make sure I was okay with it. The color and haircut came out amazing plus they're reasonably priced. This is definitely my new go to salon and definitely recommending it to everyone. read more

The worst service , u make a appointment and they told u please wait 15 min becauSe ur stylish is busy ok no problem I wait , your stylist is supposed to attend you but she does not attend 5 people at the time and it makes you have to take 5 hours to make your color, then I make another appointment for another treatment and I'm 16 minutes late and you say you lost your appoinment because you were late ? the horrible color the horrible attention and overrated service. Better salons u can find trust me don't waist your money read more

Gabby is one of the best stylist there, she is the Owner and the original Gabby from Hair Ambition. I am so glad she opened up her own place . Her prices are also super convenient and her salon feels like home, she is always funny and attentive and her staff is great. All of her stylists are 100% professional and are dedicated in taking the time to listen. Prices are super convenient as well, they even quote your hair and are honest about every process before booking an actual appt . I highly recommend this place. Milkshake products are also recommended, and not expensive like other products . Try the treatments , they smell so good . read more

I had the best experience at Colour Bar today. Everyone was super friendly. I had a makeup tutorial with Julianna and she was incredible! She is very talented and able to work with different complexions, skin types and features. For our tutorial, she asked us to bring our own makeup so we didn't have to work with products and tools that were unfamiliar or spend hundreds buying new stuff and guessing if any of our existing products work into our new routine. She took us step by step through our existing make up process and taught us new techniques that improved the impact. The improvements will definitely help us save money over time too by not wasting product. She also gave us great recommendations to expand what we use if it makes sense and offered drug store brand alternatives so we didn't have to break the bank. I wasn't an expert but she helped me practice and even if you are pretty proficient at making yourself up, she has many tricks up her sleeve that will make it come out sooo much better!!! She knows her stuff and I can't believe i waited so long to learn how to do makeup properly. read more

So let me start by saying I am super picky and I barely change my hair because I never get the outcome I want. So I saw my best friend's new blonde highlights and I LOVED them and she referred me to Gabby at the Colour Bar. I went to get a caramel blonde balayage. I was super nervous and she knew it, but once it was all done I LOVED my hair. She was nice, funny, made me feel not as nervous. Needless to say I am going back in a few weeks for more blonde! :) Highly recommended read more

Gabby the owner is amazing. She took the time to ask me what I needed. The atmosphere is so great everyone is so pleasant.

Gina has been my stylist for a few years now. She spends the time to get to know your style and she aims to please. I would highly recommend her to anyone. Excellent with color cuts styles and keratin treatments. She is very knowledgeable about the latest treatments and styles. read more
