Came here yesterday and was pretty nervous because i had never gotten my hair dyed at a salon before. Ana took care of me and she was an absolute gem. I am incredibly particular about where and who i go to get anything done such as my hair cut, nails, lashes, etc. The stylists offer drinks including water, tea, coffee, and are very welcoming. Ana walked me through the whole process so i knew exactly what what going on and what products were going on my hair. I got a honey/caramel balayage. I believe the price was fair as it reflects the amazing service and overall atmosphere of the establishment. I will definitely be coming back read more

Super happy with this decision: They were able to accommodate my mom's last minute appointment and she loves her hair! Her stylist was Matt and she was raving about his skills and care. Will definitely be trying this salon myself one day. read more

I love this salon. Alexa is the best stylist I've ever encountered. My hair has never looked so good or felt so healthy. She's an expert, and I trust her opinion wholeheartedly. I can't recommend her enough. I feel entirely comfortable walking into this salon. Their Covid protocols make me feel safe, and everyone I've interacted with is extremely friendly. read more

Drove from PA to get my haircut from Jess for the second time. Once again a great haircut. Thanks so much, it was worth the drive. I'll be back for sure. I'm super picky about my hair which most of us are, and somehow in a very short time, Jess understands what I'm looking for. read more

Today was my first visit to Hilights Salon. Upon my arrival, I was immediately greeted and given a tour of the salon which made me feel very welcomed. After waiting two weeks for my appointment, I was super nervous about getting my hair done by someone new. I've had horrible experiences in the past at different salons and wasn't sure what to expect this time around. I got my color and cut done by Cassie and words cannot express how happy I am with the final outcome. Cassie was super professional, sweet, easy to talk to, and extremely accommodating. She knew exactly what she was doing and made me feel comfortable throughout the process. I will absolutely be back to get my hair done with Cassie in the future. read more

Chanel was wonderful. They fit me in on short notice and she was super talented and sweet. Perfect blowout!

Erin has been doing my hair for the past three years. I had an incident a few months ago where someone else (different salon) had dyed my hair neon blue when I was going for a platinum silver. First my hair turned neon green and I had to wash it out with PRELL. My hair was fried (from treatment and the shampoo) and I had to cut 6 inches off my hair. Erin examined my hair carefully and we had to make the decision to dye it dark again, close to my natural color (a little lighter). It was a hard transition for me but Erin knew exactly what she was doing. It's been two months since I met with Erin and my dark hair is starting to fade back into a blonde that I LOVE. in the summer I will be able to get back to the original blonde that I had. I'm so beyond happy, she really knows her stuff. Obviously never risking my hair again and will be a customer of Erin's for life. read more

I had an amazing experience for my first visit to this salon! I hadn't had anything done to my hair in years and Tiffany was so helpful and asked plenty of questions and pulled up some pictures to make sure she knew exactly what I wanted and the result is amazing! She and her assistant were very patient during the long process (I have a lot of hair) and even though they had to stay late to finish i never felt like they were rushing. Everyone was very friendly and I will definitely be back! read more

I have been a client of hilites salon for years now. Admittedly, off and on for no particular reason. But I find myself always returning and for the past few years I have been a steady client. I am writing this review to say that ALL of the stylists at this Salon are great! I have had Tricia the owner do my hair, Deena and today had Jessica a newer stylist do my first balayage! She did an awesome job, the colors blended beautifully with the end result being exactly what I wanted. Tricia employs the best of the best for her clients!! On a personal note, I was recently diagnosed with breast cancer and had 3 surgeries in the past few months, Jessica made me feel beautiful again! Thank you for a great day Jess! read more

Very friendly staff. Professional. Nice decor. Average prices. Would return for a blow out read more

I cannot say enough good things about this salon. I had horribly, destroyed hair and I now have an awesome cut, color, and a healthy-hair look... all thanks to Yesenia, Krista, and Kimmie! They are all so friendly and welcoming. I am grateful that they took care of my damaged hair. Never before have I had my hair short and loved it so much! Every time I cut my hair short, I hated it and couldn't style it. This is the first time ever that I love my short hair AND can style. I have been recommending this place to everyone. read more

Great cut, exactly what I wanted. The stylist really listened to me and looked at the example photos I brought carefully and explained how she would achieve the look. Will return! read more

Just moved to the area, went in for a consultation for highlights. They had an opening same week. Mimi spent 4.5 hours doing a full head of highlights on me and did an excellent job! Love it! Will def. be going back. On the super plus side, they are open 7 days a week with evening hours! read more

So disappointed. My stylist had left so I was re-booked with someone new. She did the exact same thing as my previous stylist did (followed my previous stylist notes) and my hair turned out fine.... went to pay and she charged me $768 for a bleach re-touch before tip. I had my hair done in September 2020 and the exact same service was $229 plus I tipped her $72 (30%).... no one informed me in anyway at anytime that the prices have increased and honestly I get prices going up but I was charged $768 plus $159 in tip so total $928 for a bleach re-touch! That's a 308% price increase! I'm totally disgusted and I'm so disappointed. Please don't book here unless you know what they are going to charge you. So shady. Next step is reporting to BBB for their business practices. read more

this salon is awesome! the price is so reasonable and the service here is great. ive been here for blowouts a few times and always get compliments. today i went in for a balayage to get rid of my blonde highlights and get a warm color for fall. jessica did a fantastic job, highly recommend her! :) thanks jess for a great salon day!!! read more

Made an appointment and scheduled it around my week and made time to come in on a Wednesday. When I came they said Oh your appointment isn't until tomorrow. How hard is it to schedule an appointment correctly? And was just asked can you come tomorrow? Didn't offer to try to reschedule with that being said I will not come back. read more

Been bouncing around looking for a place to cut my hair. For a dude, hilights as a name is kind of suspicious, but fear not. Got my hair cut by Tricia. She was pretty good. Friendly and she seems to know what shes doing. $25 bucks a guys hair cut, wash, and style is pretty reasonable around here. For me, there are 3 major components for getting your haircut. 1: Has to be a good general haircut 2: the less talk the better 3: availability for appointments Hilights hit on all 3. I walked away feeling like i got a good haircut, she made sure not to get hair down my back, cleaned up the back at the neck line, did some styling, and offered some advice. Not to be an ass, but I like to take some me time to ponder life and think about things while i get my haircut. Tricia was an active talker, but it felt sincere, so I'll let it slide. I had an appointment at 12:30 on a Tuesday and the place was empty which was great because parking was easy and i was able to sit right down. I hesitate to even say that because I dont want to have to compete for an appointment. Overall, Tricia and the woman at the desk were friendly, got the job done right, and for a good price. The place is modern looking and clean. Als got a referal coupon for $15 bucks off for me and for my referral. Key things to know: They accept credit cards, but no tipping on them. There is a lot in the back that you access from valley brook. Also, the stylist washes your hair (went to a place where a guy does it. No thanks) Will go again and will tell others about this place. read more

The customer service is great But the stylist is horrible This is my 3rd time coming here and i hate how Erin did my hair last month i went for a root touch up and i came out the same way i went in since my hair was wet i didnt notice I complained never got a call back at all it is ridiculous i spent over $500 there in my 3 visits and i never became satisfied i quit on going there The first time i went i spent $300 and erin burned the Crap out of my hair my hair was all coming off and she didnt even do the color i wanted The secound time i went she was only going to do a treatment to fix what she damaged instead my dummie self asked her can she go a shade darker i didnt like the color and she goes DARK BROWN WTH I WENT BLOND BLEACHED MY HAIR FOR NOTHING WHY WOULD SHE GO DARK BROWN I HATE HOW WE HAVE TO PAY FOR SOMETHING WE HATE read more

I had to wait 50 minutes for my appointment and I had to ask 3 times for an update .... I understand you're busy but communication with your clients is key. Especially first time clients, you think you would want to make a good first impression since you only get one chance! I cut off 12" to donate and asked for a shaggy bob with lots of layers and side swept bangs.... I got a plain old bob! I had to ask Linda (an experienced hair stylist they claim) to go back and add more layers. I will not return and cannot recommend; stay away unless you want a boring cut and are willing to spend time waiting. Very disappointing, but the cut was for a good cause and hair will grow back ... can't wait to go home to have my hairstylist fix this boring bob. read more

I've been looking for a new hair place ever since moving back to north Jersey. I don't get anything fancy - just wash/cut/style. Therefore, I was not willing to spend a ridiculous amount of money, but I wanted something better than what I was used to - where the stylist actually had an opinion and helped me make decisions about my hair. I was set up with Melissa, who is supposedly only a "junior" stylist, so obviously I was a bit apprehensive about that. But to my surprise, she was amazing! Best hair stylist I've had to date and I love my haircut. She spent a lot of time consulting with me before doing anything and giving me lots of feedback and advice about how to cut/style my hair. On top of all of that, she was incredibly friendly, and I guess because she is only technically a junior stylist, it only cost $30! (and I have very long, thick hair too, which took a lot of time). I'll definitely be back for my next haircut and I've already recommended Hilights to a friend. Without a doubt, worth it! read more

What started out as a coloring for a few grays that I have in the front of my hair (very few) the process is a so called color camouflage that fads in 2-3 months, well for some reason Gennifer brushed this chemical process throughout my hair line and sections of the back of my hair, once washed out it had black highlights on most of my hair and she did not style my hair after. I was so upset I have a wedding coming up in 2 weeks and a 50th birthday party as well, I called and had to drive back and try to fix this mistake and know it has reddish orange highlights and looks awful! It cost me $107. I plan on going back to speak to the manager and get a full refund. I will not return to this Salon read more

Thru the power of instagram I found Hilights Salon and it has been a joy! Kendra was the lucky individual who took care of my partial highlights. I requested very casual natural looking auburn/copper highlights. She walked me thru the colors, placement and the thickness of the highlights. With her patience and finesse, the entire process was pleasant. It Took about 2 hours ( I have a lot of hair ) and the color results couldn't have been better. Just left wanting more. Because I was not blessed with bushy- thick- dark eyebrows, I wanted to color them and to my surprise the color Kendra picked was super perfect! Great color coordination Kendra! On my 2nd visit, I desperately needed a deep conditioning service because my ends were frizzier than a brillo pad. The conditioner treatment recommended worked marvelous on my hair. I was extremely happy with the result. I don't remember the names of the lovely two ladies who took care of me but they were great too. The salon is clean and tidy. Always find street parking. Staff is friendly and understands the meaning of customer service. I do want to go back to possibly get more highlights for my upcoming trips but I need to save MULA! read more

If I could give this place ZERO stars I would ! I went in there with some pics of what I wanted . Of course I understood I wouldn't get the exact same color . The hair stylist said I can't get this bluish silver u want but I can get a neutral silver . Mind you .. she still said she could get some sort of SILVER in my hair right ? So at the end of this my hair came out caramel/blonde . And it was just ugly . I said please fix my hair or I'm not paying for this or I'll only pay partial for your time but this is not what u said I would get . Now if she said sorry your hair will come out caramel but the second time around we can push for neutral silver I would've expected this . NO ! As much as she will deny it she promised I would at least get a neutral silver . Mind u she's only a level 3 stylist at this salon out of a possible level 6 but I'm pretty sure she should be a level 1. After I told them my options they called the police . Little did they know the police officer was a friend of mine .. even he said this was ridiculous and my hair wasn't how they said it would be . But it was up to me to pay . I paid because well I'm not broke and I didn't go there to not pay . But for a salon to go this far and in front of my 12 year olds daughter who's birthday was THE NEXT DAY ! This day was absolutely traumatizing. I have zero respect for this place . They are not as good as they claim to be and if I knew this would be the outcome I would've went to the ghetto and gotten the same exact thing done for less . Even my mother in law said it was ugly . Thanks for nothing !!!! read more

Last time I was here, I was treated poorly, they lost all of the appointments due to some computer issues. When we walked in we were given dirty looks by the staff (because they assumed we were "walk-ins on a Friday night" and no one did anything to help with the situation, they basically said, no one here is willing to help. The only person that helped out and took care of us was Megan, who I understand is not there anymore. It was my 3rd time here but my fiancee's first time and definitely our last. read more

The first couple of times I tried this place I was not a fan. When I made my appointment I asked for someone that could handle curly hair and I was told (kind of with arrogance) that all their stylist can manage all hair types....Not true! they assigned me to someone but I don't want to name them, that did a good job at coloring (it was just single process) but my cut and blowdry I hated, which sucks because it was really expensive. When I went back to touch up the roots (same stylist) it was $80 and she wouldn't blow dry my hair (this is why I used to color my hair at home). 10 months after that, I decided to give the place a try again, but ask for a different stylist and what a difference. I did a complete look change, highlights, bayalage, treatment, blow dry (which she did amazing) and bought product...paid so much money (like close to $420 inc/ gratuity) and I didn't care because I was happy. I have gone back to her twice and love it! I just won't buy product, because I can buy the same from Ulta and at least get points, get sales, use coupons etc. read more

Love this salon! It's reasonably priced and my hair always turns out great. I've been going to Tricia for a while now. She worked at Panico by my house in West Caldwell and then went to Highlights so I followed. I'm really fussy whether it's color or cut but Tricia always listens to me ramble about what I kinda want to do and then does it better than I pictured. I recommended the salon to some of my friends and it's very convenient to swing by after work from Jersey City or even from home in West Caldwell. Cute salon and friendly knowledgable staff. Definitely give it a try! read more

I came to Hilights with box dyed hair, hot roots, and a rainbow of colors on my hair. Jill did a phenomenal job of correcting all my errors and helping me get the blonde I've always wanted!!! read more

I have been going to Hilights Salon for two years and I would not trust my locks with anyone else! I have used many stylists, which all have been talented and professional. Melissa's expertise with blonde hair is unsurpassed; she has managed to prevent any further damage to my fragile, previously lightened areas. Love, love, love this salon!! read more

They offered me outstanding customer service when I explained my aggravation last time I was here! They took very good care of me moving forward! The new owner has extended open hours and made lots of great changes. For that - They get 2 extra stars! Hilights is still as great as it use to be! read more

Received my first balayage with Yesenia and I must say I absolutely love it!

If you're looking to get your hair done, I'd definitely recommend Hilights Salon!! Going to a new place and doing something so completely different to my hair than my usual, I was a bit nervous. Ana did my hair and made me feel like brand new. Throughout the whole process, she was completely transparent and made sure to explain everything she was doing / putting in my hair. Ana told me up front that it may be difficult to get my hair so light in one sitting and I didn't think it could happen, but SHE DID THAT!!! It's exactly what I wanted and I couldn't be happier! Thank you girl!!! read more

Upon arriving 10 mins early to my 10:45am appointment, I had a terrible wait time of 45 mins just to get in the salon to get my temp checked, because My hairstylist wasn't even ready to sit me at her chair. I waited an additional 10 mins waiting for the stylist to disinfect which she didn't do until she finally called me to her chair. What a disappointment! read more

Very friendly, I had my hair done by A.L, she did a great job on my hair and color since my hair is very thick/Long and try to get me to the color i wanted and explain the process. I ended up with a nice Blonde honey color and i'm enjoying the change! (: *It is on the pricey side for people who do have a budget !! read more

Cassie is a godsend! I went to the Highlights salon today to get a bad ombré job fixed (I had it done at a different salon and it was SO horrible - it was chunky and the blonde didn't blend into my dark hair at all). Cassie figured out a way to fix the issue and she made my hair look FABULOUS! I will never go to another salon again - they know what they're doing! read more
