When I first moved to Hoboken I was in search for a new place to splurge and have a blowout. Up & Out came highly recommended and it was an fantastic experience - everyone was happy and extremely knowledgeable. Dena was my stylist, she was so friendly and I loved how she styled my hair. Now, I see Dena weekly and I would recommend anyone to Up & Out. The Salon uses R+Co and Moroccan Oil, which are both excellent high end hair products. What started as a special treat became a weekly indulgence. Always a nice time and blowouts last 4-7 days! read more

Up and out is an amazing establishment. Been coming here for years. Unfortunately I do not have my own yelp page so I'm using my husbands and I refuse to make one and make it look like all the fake pages that leave reviews. I'm very confident in all the stylists here. Never had a bad experience. Staff is extremely friendly from start to finish . Margherita runs that place like it's her own, makes sure she's on top of everything while making everyone feel welcomed and comfortable. Not to mention she does an amazing job on my hair. Hands down the best I've ever been to. Thanks girllll !!!! I've been a long time customer to up and out and I should have wrote this review sooner but better late than never. Thank you all for doing such amazing jobs and will see you soon read more

Got a wash, haircut, blowout, & styling last weekend here & it surely did not disappoint! This was much needed for me as I hadn't got my hair done in over a year & my birthday was in a couple days, which I was going on vacation for. Luz truly outdid herself on my hair! She gave me layers & curtain bangs just the way I asked. Also she was super precise & took my wishes into consideration. I had been looking for a good hair place in town FOREVER & this is now my go-to. Will be back very soon! It's been a week & I still love my hair so much!! read more

I would give 0 stars if I could because...I was never serviced. I called ahead on Wednesday, August 14 to make an appointment for 8AM on Friday August 16. The first red flag should've been that the salon is listed to open at 8AM on Fridays, but I was told I'd have to pay a $35 early bird fee on top of the cost of a blowout. Fine, no problem. The woman took down my information and told me she'd confirm with her stylist and let me know. She called back a few hours later to confirm my 8AM appt. On Friday I show up at 8AM and there is one woman servicing her client who assures me that my stylist is just parking. 5, 10, then 15 minutes go by and she assures me that the stylist is just parking. finally at around 8:20 she lets me know that no one is answering her messages (in what i assume is a group chat) and that she was surprised I had an appointment at all because usually no one comes in early. She then proceeds to tell me that no one is coming and that she has to leave after her client. At this point its 8:30 so I've waited THIRTY MINUTES for a stylist that never showed up and am being sent home with zero explanation. The woman there let me know that the manager would call me to rectify the situation. I'm now writing this on Sunday, August 25 after calling Up & Out and getting no response. No one has reached out to me or responded to my outreach. I was literally STOOD UP by a stylist the day before my engagement party. Ultimately I wasn't even charged because no one showed up, but I don't think that validates the fact that the service was never provided on a very special day and on top of that, no one ever responded to me or reached out to me. I would look elsewhere if you need a service performed. Ridiculous. read more

Great place to take friends from out of town. Insane cocktails, good vibes and in a great neighborhood in case you want to go elsewhere afterwards. read more

I had a scheduling issue with Up and Out that caused a lot of frustration and inconvenience before a very important event. The managers and employees I was in contact with were unaccommodating and the communication was very poor. However, when my issues were brought to the owners attention, she couldn't have been more kind or accommodating. She reached out directly, both refunding me for my original service and giving me one free blow out. I will be happy to give Up and Out another try! read more

I was in a right pickle when my hot water refused to work, and I had my first in-person event in over a year. My hair had not been washed in 3+ days and after many attempts to jump in a FREEZING cold shower, I just couldn't get myself to do it. I called UP&OUT but no one picked up. I did not think to leave a message because I figured they were fully booked. Melissa called me back in less than 5 mins and although she had a jam-packed scheduled, she squeezed me in for a flawless blowout that took less than 30 mins. Honestly saved my life! Thank you, Melissa!! It was my first experience, and I was beyond impressed. I will be going back :) read more

My stylist Danielle is fabulous! Super nice and friendly. Really listens to what you want to do. And when she gets to work, wow! She really knows what she's doing. I needed to do an up do with clip in extensions 20" - my own hair (fine) only goes down to the shoulders. Danielle worked her magic and even gave me tips how to clip them in myself in the future. Style came out beautiful and natural. And I'm one of those people who will visit 10 salons until I find the one I feel comfortable with. My hair is very personal ;) great salon, too - very clean, fresh aesthetic. Looking forward to a full social calendar where I come here again for more up-do's. read more

Love this place! All I wanted was a fancy French braid, and I couldn't find anywhere in Manhattan/Hudson County that would do it without charging the price of a full updo aka a 50-spot. Then, I found Up & Out. Made an appointment for noon on a Saturday, but they were able to accommodate me when I called at 11 and asked to come at 11:30. The salon was bustling. The manager was assigned to braid my hair. She did exactly what I wanted: two side French braids along the top of my head that met in a bun below my ear. I LOVED IT. Also, it only cost $25, which I think is a great price. I ended up taking out the bun at the end of the night but kept the braids for a few days. I watched all the other women as they paid and left. Every single one looked FABULOUS. These stylists really know how to work a blow dryer. I highly recommend for special occasions or even weekends. I heard one stylist say he has a client who never washes her own hair; she just comes once a week to get it fabulously blown out. If only! read more

This review is based solely on scheduling. I booked a cut and color at 9am on Sunday, the hair stylist cancelled day-of claiming "a miscommunication" with the schedule (I had called twice to make sure it worked) and that they didn't have a key. They asked to reschedule, I asked if the following day at 9am would work since the cut was for a video event for work so it was rather urgent, they said ok. Then day-of they didn't show up. I called them after 20 minutes of waiting outside and they said it was another miscommunication. There was no miscommunication it was in a text exchange and confirmed. read more

This place has NO business charging what they do for their services. This was probably of one of the worst salon experiences I have ever had. It felt like I walked into a cosmetology training school. The location and prices along with their social media presence made me believe it was worth it and I don't think it was. I hated my cut at first but did have a good hair day weeks later and thought maybe I was wrong. However, for those prices I should undeniably loved my hair and I didn't nor would I ever want to go back to some place that treated me like they didn't really want me there. These other reviews reminded me I was calling about appointment issues and the receptionist never called me back! So unprofessional and sloppy. read more

Came here for an updo for my brother in laws wedding. Got there at 10:45 for my 10:45 Saturday appointment and was seen instantly. Kai (spelling?) styled me. I basically told her I want a loose updo thats textured with loose waves. She was SO GOOD! She kept checking with me if I liked how it looked and when I wAnted a small change, she did it without any huffs or puffs. I say that, because sometimes I feel bad asking a stylist to change something because it's like they get personally offended. Kai was super cool and patient. I didn't get my hair washed (my choice to do that) so the styling took maybe 35min. Will definitely be coming back here again read more

Love Up & Out! Moved here last year and wasn't sure where to get my hair done for my engagement photos. This was a big decision lol because we all know that your hair can really make or break your look. Michelle did a beautiful pony tail for me and I absolutely love the way it came out. I showed her a photo of what I wanted and she nailed it. So friendly, and fast too. She had me done in less than an hour. Thank you so much Michelle! Definitely recommend and will be back. read more

I live in Hoboken, and wanted to like Up and Out so badly. I have tried to book appointments multiple times, and there are always scheduling issues with their stylists. The communication is so awful, the business often simply not responding to multiple phone calls and emails. Would not recommend this business to anyone. read more

I had a lot of expectations going into this appointment because of the great reviews. I went in at 8am this morning with an appointment to get a blow out. I told the stylist exactly what I wanted. It wasn't a bad blowout, but it was really limp...that's the best way I can explain it. All the other blowouts I've gotten (in Manhattan or otherwise), my hair is super voluminous and has some weight. Also the stylist never stopped to show me while I was there to make sure what she was doing was what I wanted. It didn't help that we weren't sitting right in front of a mirror. It's more a of a mirror wall but our seats are too low to get an actual view of what is going on. I feel like I could've done this at home and I'm not good at doing blowouts. I was pretty disappointed when I left to be honest. The last time I got a blowout, it was going strong even at the end of Day 2. read more

I've lived in Hoboken for 7 years and have tried every blowout bar. I love this place. I got a blowout with Anna and it exceeded expectations. Atmosphere is great and the stylists clearly know what they are doing. I have a ton of hair and Anna was able to do an amazing job in a timely manner. The hoboken Drybar around the corner is absolutely horrible so definitely come here instead! read more

Up and Out is the best blow out bar in Hoboken hands down. Their level of cleanliness and care is great! Their stylists are friendly and beautiful. Book a session with Kai! read more

I took my mom who was visiting from out of state to this salon over the weekend and they were absolutely phenomenal! It was my first time at Up & Out as well and they truly were great. The two stylists were both ready and waiting when we arrived for our appointment. They took our coats, offered us a drink, and got all the details of how we'd like our hair done. They checked in throughout the process and always asked us before putting any type of product in our hair. My mom has extraordinary thick hair and her stylist knocked it out of the park leaving my mom with a nice flat, sleek look when she was done. She is still talking about how amazing the shampooing felt in their reclining massage chairs! What a great addition to my parents visit over the weekend and we certainly plan on making it a routine! read more

This place is great if your looking to do a quick blowout and style. The place is small, super clean, and the staff is super helpful and professional. Most salons I've been to lately are either dirty or the staff was rude. The decor is modern but sweet. The girl that I had was really nice and did an amazing job on my hair. It was for my graduation- got my hair done at 1030 and it's still holding up at 11pm. I don't even get that when I went to a 5th avenue salon. I would come here all the time if I wasn't moving out of the area, but I highly recommend it! read more

I purchased the February Unlimited Package and I couldn't be happier. I've been to all of the major salons in Hoboken and I haven't been so satisfied with a blowout in a very long time. I've gone to Kai 2x per week since February began and my hair hasn't looked better! My hair is a bit curly and can be hard to manage, but Kai gets it done perfectly in less than 25 minutes. My blowout with her looks very natural and bouncy, lasting me about 5 days! I'll definitely be purchasing a different package once this ones over thanks to her amazing skills! I'd highly recommend this salon to anyone in the area that's looking for a great blowout at a reasonable price. read more

I was super nervous to try a new hair place for a black tie wedding I was attending, but figured I'd give this salon a shot. Making my appointment was easy as could be via phone for the next day! Jessica greeted me, offered me a drink, a magazine & shared small talk with me while she washed my hair. I told her what I was looking for and she executed perfectly. It was a cloudy day with some light rain so she sprayed extra hair spray to hold it in place. At the wedding, everyone, everyone, complimented my hair. The girls in the wedding said they wish they went where I went for their updos. I could not be more happy with the service, experience & outcome. Thanks Jessica! I will definitely be a repeat customer. read more

I absolutely love this place! I made an appointment online for 4:15 on Saturday, and when I got there a little early, they still started me with a nice long hair wash. The chairs at the sinks give a massage which is a nice surprise! They use all Morrocanoil products, so there's quality stuff being put on your hair. Clarissa did my blowout and was an absolute doll! She managed to give my chemically straightened hair some bounce and curl! My hair was perfect for my date later that night. I'll absolutely be returning! Between the friendly employees, the fantastic location and the fair price, this salon is a welcome addition to Hoboken. Also, you can buy packages of blowouts, which makes them even more affordable!! read more

EXTREMEY over priced. a simple Hair Cut (trim and face frame) was $120. Haircut was fine but definitely not worth that much. would not return read more

This place is terrific! Very welcoming - they are so lovely to my daughters who accompany me quite often. Comfortable - very clean, and great reclining shampoo chairs that massage you! But the best part of course is the staff - I've had blow outs from almost everyone and I've never had a bad one. And my blow outs last for a week. I realize that some of this is due to my hair texture. But it is also because they never put in too much product. And everyone is very nice! Also - they are always on time. This is a huge deal when you are busy as most people are. There is nothing worse than allocating a specific amount of time for something and then having to wait beforehand. I have never had to wait - in 2 years What started as a periodic indulgence has become a weekly ritual. read more

Solid place to get a blowout! The best way to go about this is to get a month of blowouts, try every stylist you can, and then see who styles your hair the way you like it best. Pro's: they give you a drink when you come in (water, tea, wine or champagne if they have it), they have a separate place to hang coats, a nice bathroom in the back, and 2 styling bars. They also have music on (depending on how busy it is, and who's working you can ask for something specific), and they usually have a good 80's or 90's movie (on silent) to watch. You're provided magazines to read if that's more your thing and they have hooks for your purse on the "bar" where you sit. There's even a small table and chairs if you come with someone or are waiting for your appointment to start. Ooh-and the chairs by the sinks recline and massage! Con's: it can be pricey if you do it often-it's not terrible, but depending on who does your hair and how much product they put In (And what kind of wash you get), it may not last which makes it more of a treat for you than something functional that will last a while. Unfortunately, there's a large disparity in talent there. To be more specific, some of the stylists are more friendly and accommodating than the others (e.g. some aren't as happy if you're specific about how you'd like your hair to be blown out/styled), so those are the real downsides. TIP: go early-they have a short grace period for people who are late, and they charge for people who are very late/no shows! read more

The time had come for my 13 year old daughter's 8th grade dinner dance. I was chaperoning and she and her best friend wanted hair and makeup. My daughter is a tomboy and doesn't do this stuff.....ever, so about a month and a half ago we came in for a trial with Kerry. She did an incredible job with both girls, taking the time to talk with them and discover what they really wanted and the best way to achieve it and have it last with their different types of hair. About 2 weeks prior to I was contacted by Kerry informing me she unfortunately wasn't going to be able to do our hair and would it be ok to schedule us with other stylists. I agreed that everyone should be more than capable and took the shot that everything would be ok........well it was! Jackie did both of the girls hair and Desiree did mine and the compliments are still rolling in and it's the day after!! Jillian did all of our make-up and I'm beyond impressed!! As a woman heavily involved in the beauty and fashion industry I have to say I would call her to do make-up any time and every time. My daughter never wears make-up and we wanted something natural and appropriate, but that stood out, she achieved this beautifully! Her friend's make-up was equally fabulous and my husband told me she had done the best job on my make-up ever! In addition to the fact that the services that we received were done extremely well, the way we were treated was perfect! The girls were treated like young ladies and enjoyed getting pampered and I enjoyed relaxing and drinking my mimosa while we all got our hair and make-up done. The bottom line is any time I need or want hair and make-up, the choice is beyond clear! We will without a doubt be using Up & Out again and again! read more

First appointment here a few days ago, and I loved the job they did on my hair. The shampoo+massage chair was great, and the water temperature was perfect. I liked that they asked me if I wanted anything to drink (water/tea/coffee, etc.) since it was early in the day. I had a wedding to go to later in the day, so I'm glad my hair held up for most of it. My hairstylist did tell me to come back if I felt that my hair was falling flat, unfortunately, time didn't permit me to come back to them for a retouch before the reception. However, I still say everything turned out great. Definitely going to use them for my next event. read more

Fabulous addition to Hoboken! This is something that was sorely needed in this area, and I think they will do very well. My stylist was friendly, and she did a great job. I was also offered a drink while I was getting my hair done. They only have two sinks, so if you are there while they are busy, you may have to wait a bit like I did. Also, i think the prices are a bit too steep, so this is definitely something I will reserve for special occasions. They do offer packages (3 visits, 5 visits, etc.) that will save you a few dollars, so this is something I may look into. The staff was very accommodating and you can also make appointments online. The hours seem to be good, and my stylist told me they open at 7am for anyone who is looking for a blow out on the way to work. read more

Disappointing experience at Up & Out - I was really looking forward to my appointment as I was visiting from out of town and was heading to a wedding later that day. I pulled about 8 photos that showed what I wanted my stylist to do and she just sort of stared at me blankly when I showed them to her. I wish I was exaggerating but literally she said nothing. Which I should have seen as a red flag but figured maybe they're just not used to people showing them photo examples and maybe she was offended. So I let her do her thing. Didn't come out aaaaanything like any of the photos I showed her. That's not to say it didn't look good, it looked alright, not great. It just wasn't the style I wanted, not the type of curls I asked for. Very disappointing experience. Additionally, it wasn't just my lady but I felt like the staff was really unfriendly. The shampoo girl and the stylist both were mute throughout my entire experience with them. Not at all looking to be entertained with conversation but when I make a comment about the rain etc. you can at least respond somehow. It was weird. I would not go back .There were a couple pros, listed below. But this isn't enough to warrant a repeat trip when there are other blowout bars in Hoboken. Pros Cute Place Online Appointment System Moroccan Oil Hair Products Used Jennifer Lopez Rom Coms playing on their TV Cons All staff that I encountered were really cold and unfriendly Did not take good direction Just generally not a warm, fun experience Not a single employee in the salon had an actual blowout, not very encouraging read more

Really loved my experience! They were kind, took me early and read the comments I had put in the comment section. My blow out looks great and I've already received 5+ compliments this morning (after having slept on it!) Highly recommend and will be going back. I should also mention I had thick, curly and dry hair -- it wasn't even an issue for my stylist! read more

Got a blowout with Michelle also upgraded and got the head massage. Holy cow amazing. And so so relaxing! My hair looked great and the curls held for days. Such a nice experience I told my girlfriend to use them for her engagement photos! read more

Made an appointment 2 weeks prior to appointment. I got stuck underground in subway. They did not honor my appointment... all they did was talk to each other and waste time and try to scold me. They could have washed my hair in that time at least, nope said sorry can't take you now. Never again there other places that are more accommodating, the world knows you are at at the mercy of transit when you live here. So disappointed read more

Have since gone many many more times. Only complaint is that they've gotten to popular it can sometimes be hard to get an appointment. Love them!! read more

When I saw these great reviews I knew I had to try this place but was disappointed. Go to dreamdry in nyc 100 times better same price. I got a"ten" minute scalp massage aka 4 minutes. There was also a bachelorette party there the time I went and the place is not big enough for that. The whole staff was dedicated to the party basically and paid no attention to regular clients. Get curling irons too... Idk a blowout place that doesn't own those. Poor customer service. :/ read more

This place was amazing. Stylist Christian was on point with my hair. I never am satisfied with beauty professionals, so this salon was the first that exceeded my expectations. I will definitely go back and 100% recommend others to not hesitate when booking. My stylist did his best and succeeded in getting the outcome I wanted. I got the updo bun with a scarf intertwined in it. It was my stylist's first time trying this but he did an amazing job. Also, the hair products they use do not give that thick feeling and the hair turned out very natural and yet secure. My hair stayed up all night. Will visit again! read more

This place was amazing. I came to do my hair and makeup for my senior prom and couldn't have been happier with the results. Everyone was so kind and I'm usually very picky when it comes to stuff like my makeup, but I walked out literally feeling like a goddess! I came with my hair already clean and straightened so I simply got it styled, and adored the way it turned out. The ambience was super nice as well, and I loved the decor. Would definitely return!!! read more

I have heard good things about the salon and decided to try out the blow out and makeup for a wedding I had to attend later that day. My makeup looked ok, however, one of the eyelash extensions came out before I even got to the wedding. I had to run around asking the guests for someone with a glue to reattach the extension. And to make things worse, I got an eye infection within a day after getting my make up done! I have no way of knowing for certain, but I never had an eye infection before and it is just too much of a coincidence. It was a different eye from where the eyelash came out, so I know the infection wasn't from fixing the eyelash. The hair was decent, but I had someone fix my extension at the wedding as the clips were showing through my hair. read more

Get my hair done by Michelle! She's fantastic at always making my blow outs look great. I came here off a referral and did not disappoint. Will come here anytime I need my hair blown out. read more
