Was VERY disappointed..... after seeing all the raving reviews and hearing about their amazing…read morecustomer service (and most important to me, the fact that they do nothing before scheduling a consultation), I was looking forward to going to STRANDZ. I called on this past Saturday and was told to come in Tuesday or Saturday before 6:00 for a consultation. I decided to go yesterday (which was a Tuesday afternoon), so I left work early in order to get there no later than 5:30, as I commute and it required me taking 2 buses. When I got there, at 5:22, a young lady opened the door and told me they were closed, she was the only one there, and she would be unable to give me a consultation. I told her what I was told on Saturday and without apology, told me to come back tomorrow after 9:00 or Saturday at the same time. I was so disappointed that I just said thank you and left. Maybe I am just in my feelings, but I was really looking forward to my consultation and annoyed that I took 2 buses for nothing. The young lady was not unpleasant, however, she could have been a bit nicer and at least apologized for the inconvenience. Long story short, unsure about whether I will go back or not.

Went here for the first time to dye and cut my hair. Yohayne (the owner) really listened to what I…read morewanted and did just that. I like how she explained step by step was being done on my hair. The vibes in the salon were great. Everyone was super friendly and sweet, they went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable constantly asking me for coffee and if I was ok. And they played music and had really fun vibes. So although I was there for a couple of hours it was ok bc of the energy in the salon. It's based by appointment so I was attended right away, but depending on what you get, prepare to spent a significant amount of time there. I saw girls that were in and out fairly quickly. But those that were getting some type of dye applied to their hair were there with me for quite some time. It is a little on the pricey side but I think that's ok bc I'm a firm believer in getting what you pay for. So the results and the service was def worth the price.

Lumie is an upscale salon in South Orange. It has an open, airy, clean design. Having now used…read moretheir services for about a year, I wholeheartedly recommend their services, especially for color and curly hair. Reflecting South Orange and Maplewood, their clientele is multi-racial as is their staff. Having spent years blow drying my hair straight, or sort of straight, I wanted to go back to my natural wavy/curly hair and correct my color. My natural color is medium brown but now is about half gray. For years, I'd colored it a dark auburn, but recently it had become unattractive, sort of harsh looking. Plus the salon I was using while friendly and reasonably priced had little experience in reviving curly hair. I have only had cut, color and highlights with Kosia, the owner. As a new client, we had a consultation. She examined my hair and carefully listened to what I wanted. We reviewed a book of hair color samples; I picked out a color. To set expectations, Kosia told me to take at least two coloring sessions before my hair would match the color I'd selected. She was right. Yes, my hair, when cut properly is curly. We both ended up experimenting with various products to find one that worked consistently well with my hair. Since waiting for color to set in is inherently boring, I spend a lot of time either reading or looking at the other hairdressers and their clients. I've rarely seen anything that doesn't look really good. I've also had my hair highlighted, and unlike prior experiences, the highlights blended very well with my hair so I only need to do this every other appointment. Prices are moderate for a high end salon in Essex County NJ. For example, my Rezo cut is between $100 to $200 at comparable NJ places and far higher in NYC. (Trust me, I checked). I pay $110 with the owner. To be honest, I was used to paying a lot less, but my hair did not look nearly as good. Every place else that provided similar services is roughly the same price or more. My hair looks great! The color is just what I wanted and I now have wavy curly hair. Really cannot recommend highly enough.

I got a ponytail with a bang and she slayed my hair!! Mind you, I haven't had a ponytail and bang since my high school days, so you know I was super nervous lol. My hair came out really nice.

If you are in a pinch and need somewhere to go and it's not Saturday then I'd say it will be worth…read moreyour money. If that is not the case, I would say stay away. Went on a Saturday morning when they opened and there was only one person there washing about 8 people's hair. About 45 minutes later the rest of the staff showed up and began to work. It's clear who are their regular customers as they get a bit more time and attention. If you are not one of those few, you may as well forget about quality service. They barely wash your hair and it's like pulling teeth to get a clean comb or towel. If you are relaxed then you will have minimal problems in the actual styling department. However, if you are a natural girl like myself only one person there is truly qualified to work with your hair type and she is so overwhelmed that you will end up waiting for hours. All in all, can't see myself going back. I moved from DC where Dominican Salons are quite prevalent as well. However, this is by far the worst of the bunch from my experience. Also, what's up with a lot of women in this area having balding in the crown from the way these salons pin the doobies? Never seen anything like it. Definitely steering clear as a result.

I have very curly, frizzy hair, and she did the layers in a fashion that made the curls fall beautifully. Unfortunately, she retired recently. On my latest visit, with a new stylist, I had the utter frustration of feeling I could not get through to her about what I wanted. (She kept saying things about products - and what was left of my good cut she called 'chopped.') I came out with a very average cut, such as one might get at a walk-in place. No flowing layers - just frizz. I didn't want my hair very short, but did want the split ends removed (yes, I know about conditioner...) - my hair was knotted at the bottom by the next morning. I'm disappointed, because I used to love the layered cuts I had at Ultimate Visions - stylish and attractive. I don't know where to look now for the quality I had up until this year.
