    Fresh new cut!
    Kelly C.

    So I'm pretty sure Donna is a hair magician. She is a fun person who is super down to earth; I've never been so comfortable with a stylist before! During the consulting period, we decided on one style. The magic and experience with Donna is, the more she analyzes your hair and head, the more she suggests if another style would be better suited to your face and personality. I felt I didn't have to be flustered because she knew what she was doing. Highly recommend, I'll definitely be back to book China Town's best kept hairstyling secret! Thanks Donna!

    Donna is the bomb! Not only does she listen to what you want from a cut or color but she also gives incredible recommendations for the ladies wanting something new and fresh. I've been going to her for years now, and always walk out of the salon feeling like a new woman!

    Omg I have no words to describe what Donna did.... She took my unmanageable mane and gave me a cut & color that I actually love. Usually the day after the salon has been a complete let down. Not this time !!! I was able to wash and style with minimal effort.

    Starting with blonde highlights and then transitioning to a blonde ombré.

    Like all of you fellow ladies can agree, finding a hairstylist that understands what you want and can deliver can be quite difficult. I read all the amazing reviews about Donna so I decided I would give her a try.. Let me say she is amazing! I came in with partial highlights and asked Donna if she could give me a blonde ombré. Because some of my hair was previously treated, this was certainly going to be a challenge. Donna had to do two different sessions because of all the work. She was so meticulous, patient, friendly, etc. I only have good things to say about her. I am so so so happy with her work and will definitely make her my new stylist. She is simply amazing and she works with you in delivering what you want. The best part is that my hair is now "her's" so the next time I go in, she will know what's best and how to color it. I can't wait to try new things with Donna, maybe even add in some pink tips!

    Exhibit A of Donna's Genius.

    Like Maguro Brothers, Donna is one of those hidden TREASURES in the Downtown/Chinatown area. This updated review is much overdo.....my first review was in 2011. Fast forward 4 years and many a hair-transformations later, Donna's GENIUS never ceases to amaze me. I could go on and on about Donna's genius. But, my all time FAVORITE thing about Donna's hair and dye jobs is that she tailors it to what you need - your hair type and your lifestyle (maintenance, styling, etc). Donna knows that I'm on the low end of the spectrum - so, she does my hair in a way that it grows out just as nice and doesn't make me look like a Hot mess. How she does it? I don't know. It's MAGIC. Her shop is right on Bethel - up the road from JJs and Fighting Eel. When you walk right it, it's like you are getting your hair done at that super cool and posh Aunty's house. And if you're lucky, you might even catch her dog, Puppy. That's right. Her dogs name is Puppy. =)

    I hadn't done anything "professional" to my hair in years. My hair was up to the middle of my back. Frizzy. And I also had white hairs all over the place. I'm too young to have salt and pepper hair! Lol. I went in and Donna was so informative! She told me what worked best with my face and color of my skin. She walked me through each step and gave me tips on how I should maintain my hair! I would definitely recommend going here especially if you've never done your hair professionally and need guidance!

    I've been here twice in the last year and I'm never disappointed. In May I went to Donna get my hair cut and colored for my college graduation. It was better than I expected. I have her some photos, but asked for her opinion on how I should get my hair colored. She is so knowledgable about coloring hair and went beyond what I asked for. I'm went back today to do what I've never done - chop it off! My hair was very long but it was time for something new. I spoke with Min and let him know I wanted it above my shoulder and then I let him do his magic. Again I was very impressed - the best haircut I've ever gotten, no exaggeration. Everyone's very friendly and willing to work with you and give you what you're looking for in a haircut. Thank you, Fresh Image.

    Time for the transformation with amazing, successful results.

    Second attempt at posting this review. At the salon today to continue my 2015 hair color transformation. Donna Tokumoto has been my hair stylist for the last 16 years. Yep, I'm pretty loyal when I find the right person. What keeps me coming back 8-10 times a year is that Donna never seems to get bored with doing my hair. She always listens fully to me and then, using her professional expertise, guides us through a collaboration that inevitably is wildly successful. She is willing to experiment with my ideas, but never to the point of damage or just for the money. In fact, she will sometimes draw the line and say 'no, it's not for you, you will be unhappy'. That's honest and I appreciate it. Oh, and did I say that her color blending is so good that many people think my hair has not been colored at all. That's tops in my books.

    Donna gave me exactly what I wanted and more! Excellent colorist & so fun to talk to. Thank you, Donna!!

    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.
