Naoto cut my hair a few times before I moved to Boston and had to find a new salon to go to. There,…read moreI got a balayage that require them to bleach my hair. Although I loved the style and color on my hair, it made my hair very dry. Fast forward to last weekend when I came back to Naoto after about 2 years and he was able to touch up my balayage without bleach and color it exactly how I wanted. He was very efficient and patient with the process of touching up my balayage and making it darker, per my request. He's also very good at cutting my hair to how I like, and I ended with a very clean and voluminous look that is perfect for the wintertime! What I loved most though was that he took his time with the consultation in the beginning to make sure I got the style and color I wanted for my cut and balayage. He also made recommendations and asked for my permission when he wanted to cut more then I wanted in order to get rid of all my split ends.

What a gem of a place. Had my hair cut and greys covered by Naoto. He took his time and you can…read moretell he really enjoys what he does. A note for those who have never been here - it's a cash only place so just be prepared!

I absolutely love 21 Godwin!…read more From the service to the ambiance & products, April is an amazing owner & top notch hair stylist! I recommend everyone near and far to come visit. Finally a salon that's not over crowded or crazed & a relaxing setting. Don't forget to peak at the herbs and other offerings which have made my hair grow 3x faster and shine more than anything I've ever taken! 100% highly recommended!

Transformative! I had an amazing experience at 21 Godwin…read more The owner fit me in despite a busy day. I've been frequenting many high end salons in NY and NJ but finally found my spot. She gave me exactly what I wanted, quickly and easily and to make the experience even more wonderful was the impressive array of skincare, hair care, teas and tinctures that she has carefully developed and crafted with years of experience and talent. Her skin serum is nothing short of a miracle and has balanced and smoothed my very problematic skin to the point that my sister thought she didn't have her glasses on when looking at me! Amazing business and owner that Ridgewood is lucky to have! So happy to have found this lovely business!

Three amazing stylists - Tina, Elza, and Victoria - took care of hair and makeup for our group, and everything was truly perfect from start to finish. They were fun, professional, and a wonderfully calming presence, making sure everyone felt beautiful and confident before they left. All of the makeup held up perfectly all night - even through many happy tears! I would recommend Lisa Thomas Salon ten times over to any bride looking for incredible service and beautiful work on their wedding day.

I have been coming here for the last several years, but today they have lost a client…read more A few days ago I scheduled an appointment for 10 am today. Over the weekend I received a voicemail asking if I could push my appointment to 11AM. I called this morning to follow up, but they confirmed my appointment was scheduled for 10 AM and expressed confusion about who called me to change it to 11. We confirmed that my appointment would be 10AM. I then came in 15 mins early and was coldly greeted at the desk when I checked in. I took a seat and waited for my name to be called. I waited 15 mins past my scheduled appointment, and during my this time the stylist assigned to me took a client that walked in after me. She was notified that I was waiting twice. She never once came to speak to me to let me know how much longer to wait. I got up to speak to someone at the desk to cancel, but no one was working the desk. I walked out. I tried to then call the front desk and was placed on hold for 5 minutes. Clearly, this establishment has issues with friendliness and with double booking. I shouldn't run into this much trouble for a simple haircut. I won't come back.

Looooove Haru!!! I started coming here after a not so good experience at a different "high-end"…read moresalon in Ho-Ho-Kus. I asked for subtle balayage there, got bright blonde highlights, and was not offered or given a refund. The owner at the other salon fixed it, but the result lasted for about 2-3 weeks... and I was left with bright blonde highlights again. A few friend recommended Haru to me. I was given an appointment with Hadley. Immediately, I LOVED her! Hadley is friendly, warm, and completely understanding about hair. As someone who is self-admittedly fussy, Hadley listened to me and made sure she understood exactly what I wanted. Since then, I've been to Hadley MANY times and she's brought me from balayage to my natural brunette, cuts from shoulder length to halfway down my back, and dealt with my particularness about my bangs. Hadley is super talented and has a wonderful, bubbly personality. I love talking to everyone at the front desk as well, and really enjoy my time there! Additionally, I brought my boyfriend to Haru for a men's cut. He was styled by Sylvie, and she was also WONDERFUL! Best haircut he's ever had :) Next up I want to try the facials!

Came here to write about my experience with Mimi the manager and see that other people have had…read moresimilar experiences. I was told that because my cut and color was scheduled in the incorrect order I would not be able to see my stylist for both services for my appointment 2 days later. When I expressed disappointment in this as I booked it weeks ago and timed it for an event, Mimi proceeded to tell me that 1. I assumed risk booking online and 2. I booked my appointment too late and I probably have roots that require more time anyways and 3. That I could simply get a cut with someone else but I refused (not even true)-essentially gaslighting me as if this was my fault and not theirs. When I clarified that I would get a cut with someone else and she said that was fine I said that it seems like there's no issue anymore, but then she proceeds to add that perhaps with my negative attitude I shouldn't come at all...like what? My husband who was in the room was appalled at how a MANAGER was speaking to me, let alone after the issue was resolved. The results are not worth the abuse this place shells out if you request any accomodations.

UM NEW OWNER ALERT!!! And wow is it OBVIOUS!…read more I recently had the absolute JOY of visiting Moxie Bar, and let me tell you, it was like stepping into a self care, all about me world! First up, Jackson worked his magic on my hair. Not only was he ridiculously talented, but he also became my personal hair guru, dropping knowledge bombs like "Did you know this product could help with XYZ" without making me feel like I was in a lecture. My hair has never looked better, and I walked out of there feeling like I was finally in the know about how to help elevate my hair and give it the TLC it deserves. Then, Sofia took over with my makeup, and I swear, it was like meeting an old friend. We hit it off immediately (because also who doesn't love a good chit-chat while getting some glam?), and she made me feel so at ease that I forgot I was even sitting in a chair getting glammed up. Her skills were out of this world, she highlighted my features like a pro, but kept everything super natural. I have to admit, I was very surprised I loved it so much. I normally do my own makeup, but have to admit, girls got talent!! By the end, I felt like a million bucks you know, the kind of million bucks that doesn't even need a receipt. Honestly, walking out of Moxie Bar was like stepping into a whole new level of confidence and beauty. It was an unforgettable experience. Not only will I definitely be back, this new owner definitely knows what she's doing. Everyone was so nice and super talented. And the place is gorgeous. When you go, tell em Bri sent ya!

First the good stuff, friendly staff, welcoming with a smile, clean and attractive salon…read more However, I received the worst haircut of my life the other day from Angela. I wanted 2 inches cut off but then she suggested 4 which I agreed to. The problem was not the length she cut off but the hack job she did with cutting crazy layers in my hair. I went in with hair to the middle of my back and came out with hair to my shoulders which is fine. Unfortunately, she hacked away at my hair and created awkward and very short layers all over my head. Now it is impossible for me to wear my hair in a ponytail or a twist because of these layers--some are as short as two inches. And I showed her pictures of what I wanted which just had a face frame layer. Now that my hair is shorter it is frizzy and curly which only makes it even shorter. I actually want to cry when I look in the mirror now. And the kicker to all of this, when I go to pay, this awful haircut (no color) cost me $80!!! For a No frills salon next to a deli in Ho-Ho-Kus. Very disappointing and it will take months to grow out the damage.
