    Unacceptable hemming of the shorts cuffs, just look at the lining!
    Tiffany R.

    So upset and disappointed I'm practically in tears. My brand new $88 shorts that have never been worn are now ruined. For $25, I asked that the bottom cuffs be hemmed up and the waist taken in since they were a bit too big. Not only were the cuffs not even ironed to create a straight hem, they were tacked in only two spots so that they hang down. To make it worse, the lining wasn't even altered so it billows and creates an unflattering silhouette. The hemming on the waistband is crude and there's even a tear in the inside lining now. I called Jenny to let her know how disappointed I am and she didn't even know what I was talking about re: the lining. I mean come on! All she did was fold them up inside the cuff, put two small tacks and that's it. I could've done that myself! Workmanship is very disappointing. She did offer to try and fix it, but based on her work I'm scared she'll make it worse. She may be ok for quick, down and dirty alterations, but spend a little more and look elsewhere for any nicer garments. I went with the great yelp reviews and close location to me, and got burned. Lesson learned, next time I will be patient and stick with Linda Fujioka's Alterations (she was closed when I needed this done). Her work is flawless.

    Linh's Alterations

    (229 reviews)

    I always come to Linh's for pant hemming. I'm short and don't have a sewing machine anymore, but…read moreeven when I did, Linh's still did a better job. The hems are clean, consistent, and exactly how I want them every time. Helpful tip: if you already know your inseam (and it's accurate), checkout goes much faster. Turnaround is quick too. My alterations are usually ready within a couple of days. I've been in when they're busy with things like prom dress alterations, so they clearly handle a wide range of alterations. Parking can be tricky, but I've been lucky so far, knock on wood. Will definitely keep coming back.

    I was quite lucky to have someone in my family who was very good at working the sewing machine. I…read morewish I had more interest in truly learning it when I was younger because it's a very useful skill! Especially since overall craftsmanship isn't the same as before. Linh's Alterations was highly recommended, so let's give it a try! I knew where this place was as it has been at the same location along Ke'eaumoku St, between Kinau and Beretania and next to Mai Lan Vietnamese restaurant for decades! There's dedicated parking stalls on the side of the building, in the same lot as the Texaco gas station. Look for the Keeaumoku Pawn / Linh's Alteration sign. It's the same place! But it's definitely more so an alteration place than pawn shop. My wife has been here several times for repairs and alterations. This time I needed repairs! One of my newer Aloha Shirts had a seam splitting after just two washes, and it was all sold out at stores and online, so I wasn't able to exchange! The inside was clean and spacious. Linh was very friendly, nice, and an excellent listener. She definitely has very sharp eyes. Also, she is quite efficient! My shirt was finished in just a couple of days. Shirt was clean, neatly folded, and stitched very nicely. It was $15 plus tax, which was definitely reasonable. It wasn't a big area and it might've been a "simple" fix. Overall, I was happy with my shirt and the whole process, and will definitely bring any clothes that need repairs or alterations to Linh's! It's not a surprise she is contracted and trusted by several high to mid luxury brands. Location is convenient and parking is free and available.
