My go to place for a quick blowout while I'm in town. Theres always a ton of people working so you usually don't have to wait long. If you want them to put in extentions, theres an additional fee. You can't go wrong with a $25 blowout and a nice hair wash before! read more

A "blowout" I asked for brush curls and she proceeded to only do brush curls on the back but gave me a hard time because I "didn't have layers" which I did. Then she used the flat iron to curl the front pieces which were clearly layered. Didn't dry my hair all the way. Very rude and dismissive. What happened to the customers always right? read more

Super happy with my experience at J1!! I have been there twice for a blowout & curl. The pricing is super affordable and the staff there are great! You can walk in or call for same day appointments. The wash is so lovely with a head massage and option to upgrade with an oil treatment. I've had Cheryl + Jackie for my blowout + curl and both have been great! I highly recommend going here if you want a regular blowout or to save time before a wedding/event! read more

I had my hair colored which costed $85. They upsold it for $25 toner and $20 blow out. I tried the hot oil massage for $6 and it was not worth anything to mentioned as I read on reviews. The lady with the shortest hair cut, cackled the entire time and probably massage my head for 2 seconds for this hot oil massage. The workers work fast and the cackling lady pulled my earrings twice till 1 fell out of my earlobe, thought I'd lose my ear really. So imagine how hard she must have tugged a hooked small hoop which for 22 years has never been yanked at the pool, gym or on the soccer field. The vibe is not professional. read more

I got a haircut, blowout with straightening on Sunday. I called at 9:30am to see if they can fit me in for a 10am appointment same day and they were able to accommodate me. I was greeted by a friendly employee and the person who washed my hair was great and efficient. The guy who cut my hair (I forgot his name) was outstanding. I have thin hair and lost a lot of hair due to anesthesia and I was pleased with the cut and style I was provided. The haircut was quick and affordable. I paid around $35 and my hair was long (plus cut/ blow out/straighten). For an affordable and great service, the stylist and hair washer were appreciative of my tip. My hair feels soft and healthy. I would come back here for sure. read more

DO NOT waste your money at this place!! The girl washing my hair didn't even listen to my request and was rude. When i got to the stylist I asked her to use heat protectant since i color my hair and was given a hard time about it. She was using 2 blow dryers which is way too much heat! I asked her to curl my hair using an iron so it would last a few days for Christmas (normally my hair curled lasts a week). It's only been 48hrs and my hair look awful. I tried calling the place and got hung up on. Absolutely terrible customer service read more

We visited J1 and J2 several times and my daughters love their hair and always came out great! Jeff and the crew are patient and took their time to make sure my girls' hair won't be damaged from balayage highlight. Jeff listens to what my girls wants and he's also very accommodating. I used to take my girls to Queen to get their haircut. Now, it's so much easier for me to go to J1 or J2 and avoid traffic and looking for parking! read more

Usually I go for a blowout because I have really long hair and love the way it looks. However today, I was pressured into getting a trim. I don't know who was doing my hair but he kept telling me to get a trim. I eventually gave in and told him to make sure to not cut off that much. He didn't listen. My hair was almost down to my butt. and now it's at the center of my back which is minimum 5 inches short than I went in with-- after two years of growing it out to a length I'm happy with. I am so upset about this. I never get my hair cut for this reason and I made a big mistake in trusting this place with my hair. The blow outs are great but I am so upset and probably won't come back. I have an update: I've been trying to get myself to like my hair cut or just get used to it-- I've been straightening my hair every so often or going in with the blowdryer and it's official: this is the worst hair cut I've ever gotten. A detail I forgot to mention before was that I told them my hair was angled. The guy said "no it's not" and cut it straight it across. His reasoning "angled doesn't look good with your type of hair" I'm never coming back again it's been decided. read more

Easily the best hair studio around! John is the absolute best, they are quick and efficient and my hair comes out silky and amazing. I absolutely love the set up! And I even started getting my hair dyed and cut here. I have nothing but amazing reviews of j1. I will always be a customer here! Their prices are BEYOND fair which is so hard to find now. Do yourself a favor and GO TO J1. read more

Came here for the first time because someone recommended to me. When they wash your hair you get to actually lay down. I did the $6 hot oil treatment which turned the hair washing experience into a 10min neck/scalp massage and pamper. It was great and worth the $6. My blow out came out great- I asked for curly/bouncy. They actually used brushes and left them in my hair to create the curl it was pretty cool. For the blow out, hot oil and paying by credit card (tax) was $27.30 and about 45mins. Would definitely come back. read more

I walked in with my mom today, they were kind and we didn't wait long. We both washes and blowouts. However, the shampoo lady was unbelievably rough, yanking at my hair, even after I asked her to be gentle. During my blowout I was tugged and pulled while she struggled to manage my longer hair. Horrible experience, and frankly painful. read more

Best place ever for a cheap, quick blowout. The sinks are comfortable because you're able to lay down flat. Not the most luxury atmosphere but who cares when you're paying $20 something bucks for a blowout that lasts all week. I'll always, always stan this place read more

Its like a nail salon for Hair. Quick, rushed, rough,impersonal & hard to communicate. Went there because of reviews. Maybe it might be a great spot for Blows outs. Fair price & lots of walkins which is convenient. But went there for a Balayage & had to go back. After 5 1/2 hours of foil on my head & emphasizing what I wanted & show Picture, , they did not do as asked. Went back to have added pieces and was charged almost the same price as the 1st time ($230 , then $180) IWas given the price of $180 because they said they remembered me & would include a haircut in that price which I thought was fair. Well after sitting there another 5 hours they still didnt do all of what was asked. When it came to the "Haircut" they provided.....Literally just freehanded with 1 hand maybe 1/8 of an inch Just off the bottom. I was shocked & even said, thats it? ... wheres my trimmed hair on the floor? They was nothing on the floor. Hardly ANYTHING taken off, Took her all of 3mins, What a joke. The cherry on top was that they also charged me additional $9 for using Debit Card without the courtesy of letting me know there was any service fee. The good of it seemed to of had alot of walkins for blow outs. So a NO for me on Coloring & cutting. Perhaps a Yes for blow outs. read more

I requested a touch up I sat down before I knew I was covered in a one process all of my highlights gone it came out pink hair breakage dry beyond belief so dissatisfied was a customer no more they don't listen they do what they want read more

I come here two times a year for the magic sleek straightening. I couldn't be happier with how it comes out.

I went to have my hair blown out with Angels not straightened after I told the person I don't want it straightened but whatever it didn't matter once it was done. Then I tip the washers and the person that didn't my sisters hair and went to go tip the person that did my hair even though he didn't do what I wanted and I was dragged in one arm by a lady and the other arm by the person who did my hair to tip the person that did my hair. I was literally assaulted to tip someone that didn't even do my hair correctly when I was tipping the person anyways. Will never be coming back. read more

Booked a last minute hair appointment for a balayage treatment, cut and wash. I provided the stylist with a photo of the look that I was going for and the color and cut came out perfect! After living in the city, I've had my fair share of horrible salon experiences. J1 Hair Studio was a breathe of fresh air. I'll definitely be returning back! read more

Went in ready to get a touch up and ended up getting some balayage highlights as well. Jeffrey was awesome and did almost exactly what was in the picture I showed him (the person in the photo had slightly different hair than me-so I knew it would be a tiny bit different). To be honest, I've gone to other, pricier salons in the past and have never been as happy with my hair. Been here a few times before for touch up as and cuts and have left equally as happy. Tip: GET THE HOT OIL TREATMENT! It's only $6-and you get an awesome head massage and your hair feels so soft after! Thank you to Jeffrey and the rest of the staff! read more

So happy to have found this salon and will never go anywhere else !!! So I had a color disaster from another place so I decided to stop by J1 and was greeted by Jeff who is so professional and explained to me step by step what needed to be done. Two days later my hair is now balayaged to a beautiful brunette/bronde! Love my cut and blowout as well! Jeff and his team are magic! There prices are so reasonable and a great list of services. Cant wait to try there green tea keratin! Give them a try you will not be dissapointed! read more

I highly recommend J1 Hair Salon. All of the employees are very nice and do a great job. Ivy is my go to person. The owners are very nice as well. You can walk in at any time for anything from a blowout to a keratin and you will never be turned away. The prices are great as well. read more

I called on Sunday and made an appointment for 2pm this Tuesday with a certain stylist. I show up on time and say who I am there for...3 rude ppl wearing masks are yelling at me from across the room, finally a women approaches me and says the girl no work on Tuesday....I say I called sunday....oh it changed. She proceeds to make me an appointment for Friday and writes it on a post it. So disorganized and insanely noisy place! It's a shame I like the girl who cuts my hair! read more

Good/bad review: 4 stars for price/service only. If you have thick, curly hair and go for occasional wash/blow outs this is a good place for that with some issues to keep in mind. They are fast and efficient. There are basic NYS pandemic protocols that most salons are following and J1 is doing bare minimum by keeping doors open and wearing masks. No disinfecting of chairs between people and basic separation. No clean hairbrushes ever. Take a look at how much hair is balled up in every brush. It's like they're never cleaned. As someone who is immunocompromised, I hope for some kind of NYS protocols to be followed. So while the service is acceptable, if you're concerned about protocols and basic safety during a pandemic, I recommend you pay more and go to a place taking better precautions. read more

I'm so glad my sister told me about this place. I came in as a walk in for a blow out before a party. I waited 5 minutes and they were happy to accommodate me. The wash was the best hair washing I've ever experienced. They scrub your head as you lay back and relax. They added a hot oil treatment for 6$. And a quick massage of my neck at the end felt great. I had a simple straight blow out which came out great! Service here is friendly and warm. I cannot wait to come back! read more

I was so excited to try out at this new place at first. I wanted to get a haircut so I proceeded with the shampooing. People just started coming and the guy who was going to cut my hair said he can't do my hair anymore. They sat me to a different chair and someone just blow dried my hair. DONE. I came in for a haircut and got charged $35 (with tips) without getting my haircut. Disappointing. read more

This place uses unlicensed staff to do chemical processes-that is illegal! They admittedly made a mistake on my hair tried to correct it only to make it worse. I later found out they used an different product than I paid for. I paid for magic sleek, a formaldehyde-free straighten product, but they used another product using formaldehyde then blamed their mistake on me- and wouldn't rectify the matter -I actually had to call the police because they locked me in the salon. I will make it my mission to ensure this place doesn't continue their illegal practices. Horrible horrible horrible!!!! Please steer clear from this business as they practice very very deceptive practices. read more

Jeffrey did an amazing job with my color...first time anyone was able to give me the exact color I wanted....very pleased with his attention to giving me what I asked for..which I have been to many upscale salons but never got that platinum look I wanted until I was referred to Jeffrey and the prices are very reasonable considering it took a long time to bring me up to the color i wanted...just made a follow up appointment even though its far from where I live...worth the trip !!! read more

didn't listen to me when I asked no men in the store for religious reasons and a man came in and when I asked him tht he can't see my hair he laughed and put his hands over his face and started laughing and also the staff was laughing and talking rude about me in her language.They also threatened to sue me, because I apparently left the store because they were being unprofessional???? read more

This salon has been making me happy for years now. Jeffrey Is so talented and personable  and his wonderful staff are always so friendly and a pleasure to go to. Whether I've gotten  a blow out , color, keratin , balayage or a hair cut , I have always left the salon happy and relaxed because here is where you will find the best head massage in town!!  Make this salon Your next visit, you will not be disappointed With whatever service you get! read more

Great salon...affordable pricing. Left happy after Balayage and haircut/blow dry service

Not coming back. I have been to this salon maybe 8-10 times for a blow out since their grand opening. I finally found a hair dresser that knows how to handle my thick hair and blow it out beautifully. Only problem,I call ahead to make an appointment with this specific hairdresser, when I arrive they tell me she's too busy or she needs to go eat her lunch now, and I have to have someone else do my hair. Or I show up early for my appointment and I sit and wait for 45 minutes. Isn't the purpose of the appointment to avoid this? This has happened to me more than 5 times and I'm sick of it. Nobody apologizes for the inconveniences ever, it's frustrating. Will not be returning. You lost a loyal customer ‍ read more

The hair stylist chopped all my hair off about 3 inches to be exact when I specifically asked for a trim ...horrible and do not recommend..so disappointed..loved my long hair read more

They did such an AMAZING job coloring. my hair! I am constantly getting compliments! They really took their time (which btw- Jeff gave me the heads up that I will be there for a few hours & that was nice) & made sure they got it right I got exactly what I asked for! Jeff, Sherry all of you..the whole staff is wonderful Thank you!! read more

I have been going to this salon since it opened and I have never been disappointed. I've been getting my hair cut and colored and I tell you they work magic on my hair. Very friendly and clean. Would highly recommend this place read more

I have very thick, coarse and frizzy hair. I'm always weary of getting a blow out at places because it usually frizzed up quickly and I wound up doing a pony tail which is just a waste. But j1 did a great job both times I've been there. The hot oil treatment is a must. The shampoo girl is wonderful and I tip her very well because she's that awesome. They stylists use two dryers on my head and finish it off with the flat iron and I'm very pleased with the results. I'm going to try them for color next time I need a touch up. read more

My go to place. Sherry and Kelly are amazing. But honestly I let anyone do my hair because they're all so amazing. My hair comes out beautiful every time I come and I get so many compliments. I'm now a regular at J1 and J2 now and so happy they are so nice and do an amazing job for such a good price. Love this place! read more

Haven't had a haircut since April 2021.Was excited to try this place based off of all the awesome reviews it has. I cannot even believe people love this place. I called to make an appointment for Sunday for a wash, cut and style and asked what times were available and they said anytime I want. Booked an appointment for 1pm on a Sunday. First red flag was they had availability anytime on a Sunday....a weekend when hair salons are usually booked up. Anyway, arrived for my appointment on time and the man Jeff at the front desk was super nice and they took me right away. That's where it ended. I was walked to a hair wash station and was sitting up until someone was ready to wash my hair. Supposed to be the best part of the visit right? Anything but that. This woman walks over and pushes my shoulder down and says in a shit tone "Move back more. Do you want a hot oil treatment?" I said no and she proceeds to wash my hair aggressively and super fast. The worst hair wash I've ever had a salon. Barely scrubbed, didn't feel good at all, was like pulling my hair with her fingers as she conditioned it. Water getting in my ears. Left conditioner on the underside of my hair. No massage on my neck and shoulders people raved about in reviews. No conversation at all. Very cold attitude. After she's done "washing" she wraps my hair in a towel and points to a chair and says "Here." Ok....I sit in the chair and a man named Jack comes to cut my hair. He says "Blow dry?" I said, "Well yes but I'm also here for a haircut too." He says, "Ok" and just grabs scissors and a comb and is about to go and cut my hair without even asking what I wanted! WTF! I was like, "Wait! I want to show you how I want it." I pulled out my phone and showed him the look I was going for. It's a look that has bangs. He looked at the picture with this confused look on his face like he had no idea how to do that look or something. I thought to myself "This is going to be interesting" he asked me how many inches I wanted off and I told him 3 inches. He starts cutting and I'm just hoping I get what I want at this point. He seemed like he was doing OK as he was cutting. Very cold personality though like he could care less about me and I was just another number. No conversation at all. Seems like you're not wanted as a customer unless you're dyeing your hair. I'm 31 years old and never dyed my hair once and have no desire to. It's not for everyone. He finishes cutting my hair and proceeds to blow dry. I wanted a STYLE. He starts blow drying it and my hair is just flying all over the place like it's a wind storm. Once it's like 90% dry THEN he starts using a brush which he should of done from the start. My hair is literally smoking bad as he's drying my already dry hair! Then afterwards he starts using a straightening iron on my already straight hair. I'm like what is this dude doing?! I want a STYLE! I never once said hair straightening. Guy literally wouldn't listen so I gave up. I figure let him just finish so I can get the hell out of here. The length came out fine but I have no bangs like I wanted and no style. I came in with straight hair and left with straight hair. All this took place within a half hour. He's either not licensed or has zero experience because he had zero clue what I was telling him I wanted the entire time. When it was time to pay it was $33. I paid cash to avoid the 5% charge when you use a credit card. I tip him $9 (which is more than 20%. If the service is good usually I'll tip $15 minimum no matter what the cost. Sometimes $20 but definitely not today) and he goes "What about the shampoo lady?" I look at him and say to myself "Seriously....? In my opinion she didn't deserve a tip. She was terrible in all aspects." And when Jack asked me that I see the grumpy shampoo lady staring me down from the back like the entitled person she feels she is. I hand him $5 ( even though she didn't deserve 50 cents) and said "That's for her." And walked out. I wouldn't be a nice person to not give a tip. No goodbye, no see you again soon, nothing. Left feeling singled out, mad and not getting what I wanted. Guess you get what you pay for and I will never come here again. Also, the place is dirty. They don't clean their tools or brushes after customers. I watched Jack countless times throw brushes and scissors back into the drawers after using them on me without putting them in that blue pesticide stuff (or whatever it's called). Nowhere to be seen in the entire salon so beware of that everyone. Let's see if I get head lice or something now. Dirty wash stations too. Maybe I got all the inexperienced people at this place but it was enough to turn me off and never come back again. read more
