I got my digital perm and haircut from Yosuke back in July and I am still so happy with it. It has…read morebeen three months and my hair still looks great. I showed him one inspiration video and he understood exactly what I wanted. The whole appointment felt easy, he explained what he was doing, and the results came out better than I expected. My hair is very low maintenance now and it has been so nice to style every day. I am already excited for my next touch up. Yosuke is amazing and I really recommend him if you want someone who listens and truly brings your vision to life.

After getting my hair cut by Yosuke, I have had so many compliments. Most of them say "wow you look…read moreso young". You know when people say that, you're old. When I was younger and had a good haircut, no one ever told me that. Another reason I love Yosuke is that he actually taught me something. He told me never go to bed with wet or damp hair because it will break. All these years I thought it was the opposite. I thought blow-drying hair was bad. Now I am taking his advice and most of the hair is remaining on my head instead of on the floor or in the trash can. He splits his time between Las Vegas and Oahu so you may need to wait before getting your hair styled. You can find him on Instagram - Yosuke's Hairdresseraccount. He replies quickly and efficiently. Women's haircut currently about $80 without tip, includes wash, head massage, cut, blow dry and styling. Fabulous!

My second time here at Salon Blanc was a disaster. My haircuts on December 16, 2025 at 1pm with…read moreAdam turn out so UGLY! I waited 20 minutes for my 1pm haircut, Adam seemed stressed and in a hurry when we finally started our haircut after 1:20pm, we went to the hair washing station, it was full, so he gestured me to go back to the hair cutting station, only to gesture me to come back to the hair washing station a few seconds later. Just gesturing me back and forth with his hand, no talking, no saying "please, or thank you", nothing polite about his gesturing. Being sent back and forth does not make me feel well-treated. Adam used all kinds of heating tools to make my haircut looked okay as I walked out of this "celebrity" Salon. When I arrived home to wash and dry my hair, it returned to its natural texture and it became a disaster. My hair became puffy and so many volume, that it resembled the shape of the letter "A", the shape of the Egyptian pyramid, it became the largest natural helmet you can imagine... a race car helmet! I calmed myself to wait a few days, maybe I will get use to it, maybe it is not so bad, maybe it will be okay, but everyday when I wake up to look at the mirror, I see my big helmet hair and want to cry! This disaster costed me over $100 dollars and $20 dollars in cash tip to Adam. Now I have booked another hair appointment with my old stylist to fix this disaster so I don't go to all the holiday parties with my ugly helmet hair, so that I don't want to cry everyday when I wake up. I also had to wait 20 minutes for my 1pm appointment with Adam. This so-called celebrity salon is not what it pretends to be. I don't feel like a celebrity, and I don't look like a celebrity, instead, my haircut at Salon Blanc made me feel unimportant for a long wait and UGLY!

The stylist initially demonstrated with her hands and we both agreed that it would be a bit below the eyebrows and tapering down to hit right above the cheek. I was left with incredibly short, choppy bangs that fell much above my forehead. I've tried styling it like she had suggested, but unfortunately it is much too short and not salvageable at this point. I understand that to some degree my straight hair makes it a challenge, but I've had bangs many times before but never anything like this. Lastly, I was left with all the loose hair on my face and eyes. At any other salon I've been to, the stylists would usually dust my face off as a courtesy at the end. I paid almost $35 for this and left feeling incredibly disappointed.

My haircuts with Mie are always fun and the staff are always encouraging and give great advice on what hair would look good on your face and even adjusting styles to see what would look better!

She also is so good about recommending styling product and heat tools to use if your hairstyle is high-maintenance. Mines is pretty high-maintenance but she always guides you on how to style yourself so that you look good every day not just after your hair appointment!

I've tried a number of different stylists over the years: Yoshi, Sachiko, Marine, Sally, and Tiffany, and ALL have been terrific: kind, courteous, and total pros. The shampoo and head+neck massage are truly restorative and relaxing. Stylists ask questions about how you want your hair cut and execute very airy, light styles that bring out the natural movement and beauty of hair and which have staying power, even if you don't go into the salon often, like me. Appointments run on schedule, and I was out within an hour. Highly recommended! Original review: 6/26/21: More accolades for Yoshi, proprietor and head stylist at OAK Monsarrat Salon! Had wanted to cut my waist-length hair since before the pandemic, so decided to give this salon a try, based on the glowing recs from a co-worker and Yelp. So glad I did! Booking couldn't be easier: online, so you can see all available dates/time slots, select your stylist, if desired, and check off what services you want. You get an electronic confirmation of your appointment, once submitted. Pricing was reasonable ($50= women's shampoo/dry+haircut) and transparent--both the website and online booking indicate costs. First-time customers receive 20% off, and the salon offers a loyalty club for additional discounts and a free hair treatment after 10 visits. I opted for whichever stylist was available, but got lucky and happened to get Yoshi. OAK Monsarrat is located in the same strip mall that houses Bogart's Café and da Cove, so parking is convenient and free. Arrived early, but was courteously greeted and seated right away, and offered an iPad to browse styles or watch Netflix while waiting. The salon is elegantly minimalist and clean, with partitions between clients and COVID safety protocols observed. Staff and clients are masked, and social distancing observed. Yoshi's personable, professional, a good communicator, skilled, and efficient: he took me on time, and I was done within an hour. I wanted a low-maintenance, wash-and-wear style that would look good pulled back, French-braided, or worn loose, and he delivered a great, flattering cut that met those specs--his length estimate was spot-on. For those who're not fans of the shampoo component of salon visits, Yoshi might very well convert you: washing was thorough and seamlessly executed, with a warm towel placed under your neck, and the scalp massage= sheer magic! Walked out of the salon, relaxed and rejuvenated, 18" of hair lighter, and very happy with my haircut, which I've received many compliments on! Today, I received a nice post-visit email, thanking me for my patronage and informing me of the salon's 10 day service guarantee, in case there were any issues or concerns--really appreciate that courteous touch and commitment to customer satisfaction! I enthusiastically recommend this salon and will definitely return! OAK MONSARRAT SALON Phone: 808-772-4216 URL: http://oak-salon.com
