Love the haircuts. They don't return phonecalls very well (or at all sometimes) that's why it isn't 5 star review.

Wow!! My daughters experience here was nothing short of Amazing!! This is her first Deva cut, this dry hair cutting technique is what she's needed in her life. The pictures I'm posting will be testament of the job well done by Veronica. The staff throughly explained how to maintain and care for her hair. We are completely satisfied and highly recommend this salon. Give it a try, you won't regret it! read more

Jersey Curl Salon - Before - Hair Salons Near Me - Cliffside Park, New Jersey

See all

It was my first time getting a curly cut, yesterday. I have 2c/3a combo hair that is very prone to frizz. I love the cut and info they give during the visit. Iris did my hair and I was very happy with the results. The shop is small, but has a good turn over time. All Deva Curl products. Everyone was very welcoming. Enjoyed my visit, I will be back for another cut in a few months. read more

I could have sworn I wrote a review about this salon. Anyway, I went there in July for a haircut and consultation on my naturally curly hair. I walked in to see if I could first have a consultation. They, Veronica and Jessica, were very nice. I asked for Jessica because she came recommended by a good friend. Jessica was in the middle of styling someone's hair but was more than willing to give me a haircut next. Jessica has received special training on curly hair. Therefore, she was very knowledgeable about curly hair in general. She explained the process as she cut and worked on my hair. I also told Jessica that my hair is thin and had been falling out due to a hormonal problem I have. Jessica recommended I use the DevaCurl products three times a week to boost the hair growth/strengthening process. It's still too soon to tell if it's working yet, but I'll let you know. ;-) Finally, I'm ashamed to say that I hate my hair curly even though Jessica did a tremendous job on my hair and curls. I was unhappy. But I wasn't unhappy about the results but because I have an issue with how my hair looks on me curly. I was never taught to embrace my curls. Therefore, I have become accostumed to straightening my hair. But, I am confident that both Jessica and Veronica will help me embrace my natural curls. After all, that is what they do best. PS. I was given a discount because it was my first time to the salon. :) read more

The place is has a modern feel and it's a nice location, parking is by meter. I came in today and I was introduced to iris ( sorry if I spell her name wrong). She took pictures of my hair and we started the process of my first DEVA CUT. I have type 3b-3c hair. She informed me about how to care of my hair and really showed me to maintain it. She added volume and kept my length. She even showed me my fall out and reassured me it was okay (it's normal). The process wasn't long, very sweet girl ! I love the results, definitely can recommend anybody with curly hair to come here. read more

Jersey Curl Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - Cliffside Park, New Jersey

They gave me a great cut and plenty of info on hair care and products I might try. Cannot recommend highly enough!

All my hairdresser did was bash my hair for being too dry and damaged. I understand she was trying to "help" me but no one wants to sit in a chair for two hours to get ridiculed. And quite honestly my hair before wasn't even that bad. I straighten it 3 times a year. She then went on to tell me not to use products with alcohol in them. She again bashed me for using Shea moisture curl enhancing smoothie because it apparently contains alcohol. After cutting off way more than the agreed amount, I then bought almost $80 in Deva curl hair products. Honestly if I used them in the way they told me, it would run out in a week. Not to mention that the WHOLE DECADENCE line contains alcohol!! Shea moisture smoothie cream does not. I feel like I was scammed. I would not recommend this place at all. The photo below was a picture of my hair BEFORE getting it cut. read more

Jersey Curl Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - Cliffside Park, New Jersey

This salon is a MUST in any curly girl's life in NJ or NY! I had my first visit there a week ago. I checked their great Yelp reviews and great Deva reviews and called for an appointment. I have extremely tight curls and have left many hair salons in tears (poodle is not a good look for me). My experience has been that the first thing a salon wants to do is straighten my curls. Rebekah asked me about my hair, the products I use and how I like to style it. She then proceeded to give me the BEST hair cut of my life followed by a great shampoo and conditioning. While Rebekah introduced me to some new Deva products--explaining each item as she applied it--she didn't push product on me. The salon is bright, cheerful and professional. The owner was working there as well and clearly knows her way around a pair of scissors too. The price was more than reasonable. Who can say about a salon in NJ? Do yourself a favor: go to Jersey Curl salon. read more

I'm really quite disappointed, but more upset at myself. I came to Jersey Curl because their website states they specialize in DevaCuts, however so much about this appointment didn't resemble anything I've received at a Devachan Salon in the past. First of all, I felt like I wasn't a priority to the women who were handling my cut, wash, and style. Second, the cut is much shorter than I wanted. She pulled my hair and snipped off the ends like an amateur at Fantastic Sams. I had beautiful layers that I simply wanted trimmed a bit shorter, but now I've left looking like a mushroom. Third, the girl who washed my hair put so much shampoo and conditioner and rushed the entire time. It was not relaxing at all. Fourth, a style crème was used in addition to Ultra Defining Gel when it came time to style my hair. Both times I've had cuts in the city, the stylist explained that I should never use a crème product on my hair because it will take away from my curls and make everything greasy. Well, BINGO...that's how my hair looks today. I'm so angry at myself for trying to save a couple of dollars by trying this salon out. Lesson learned: Just because something is cheaper, doesn't make it better. I guess I'll be going back to DevaChan in the city, but at least I'll leave happy and content. read more

I've had 4 visits so far, it's fair enough to share my opinion. I've been to one other deva cut certified salon prior to this one and it was not a good experience. But after finding this place I feel as if I've been saved. Overall the staff is great and very friendly, I appreciate the courtesy call to remind me of my appointment. Place is clean and presentable. Naeemah has been coloring ,cutting and styling my hair for about a year now, she is great. Very professional, polite, friendly and is good at what she does. During my first visit she was able to accomplish the look I wanted when the previous salon couldn't. I've never had to wait past my appointment time to be seen, they are very punctual and that is greatly appreciated. I feel like they take that extra step to make sure you feel taken care of, honestly I have never been to a salon that cares if they got hair dye on your forehead or ears, during the process they apply I believe some type of Vaseline to prevent the dye from staining your skin, and during the washing process they make sure all of the stain is washed off. I've left plenty of other salons with a brown forehead and ears, rushing home to immediately scrub off the stain to get off as much as I can. They always go the extra mile and I love it! read more

I'm still recovering from the breakdown going here caused me. I was so excited because I had never been to a curly hair salon before but if your hair is at all damaged don't go here. They only know how to work with already stablished curls which i witnessed while i was there. My hair came out worse than what it looked like when I came in which I didn't think was possible. They only use deva curl products which honestly suck, and after all of their lawsuits I don't know why anyone would use or recommend them. As a curl person you should know not all products/brands work on every curl type. I cried for a week after I got my hair cut, it was not worth the money at all. read more

The color was ok, when washing Veronica was very rough with my hair. Staff is unpleasant and unprofessional. Not going back.

Did not have a good experience whatsoever........ had to go back numerous times (3 to be exact) to fix the mess up highlights to end up having to go back to where I started. She couldn't fix it ‍ and of course they don't give you your money back. read more

Performed a photo shoot at the salon with Veronica doing hair. She is great at what she does....its great to see someone so passionate about their trade that is willing to share knowledge and experience with others... read more

I don't have curly hair, so let me start with that. While this salon specializes in curly hair, all hair types are welcomed. Mine is straight with a slight wave and all I can say is that I don't trust anyone other than the Great Jersey Curl Girl, Veronica, who, after years of making all of us hair happy, has finally opened her own place, to our applause. Veronica understands the deep-rooted relationship we ladies have to our hair and how to bring out the best, true, lovely color that blends with our features and makes us just look more fabulous! AND the hair products Deva Curl (again not curly chick here) are amazing! Yes, I use them too and my hair has never been so pretty... Am going back for some lights soon. read more

I've been trusting this Salon since 2013! Devacut specialist but way affordable than The City location. They have all styled my hair and all give amazing cuts. I went somewhere else for a cut a few months ago and I regretted it. I shouldn't have cheated on my Jersey Curl Salon, but they salvaged my hair once again! Best curly cuts in all of Jersey!! read more

I can not say enough positive things about this salon and the people that work there. The culture and positive atmosphere that exists is truely genuine, professional, & good hearted. My two daughters (ages 9 & 5) were treated so well that it brought a tear to my eye. They left the salon feeling them selves. LOL! And I Ieft the salon feeling more prepared and excited to maintain their beautiful, mixed, extra curly curls. Thank you ladies! See you again soon. Best, Team Fleming read more

I downloaded yelp just so I could post this review. I was so upset by my experience that I had to wait 2 weeks before I could write about it. So here goes... I had a horrible experience here after being a loyal customer over 4 years. It all started when I came in for a trim with Veronica. I arrived ten minutes early but I guess they were running a bit behind so we didn't get started until about 15 min later than my appointment - not a big deal. As I was waiting I watched another customer get her hair styled. She looked disappointed because her hair appeared to be really thin. It was styled by a junior stylist who appeared to be new. Veronica walked over and put her hands through it a little bit to fluff it out but it still looked thin in my opinion. This was probably my first red flag to walk out the door. Anyway I finally sat down for my trim and asked Veronica not to use Deva Curl products given all the negative press about the damage the products were causing. She immediately got defensive and accused the woman who started the online complaints of lying in order to launch her own new business. Either way I said I'd prefer not to use the products. As she trimmed my hair, which I told her hadn't been cut in a year, she told me my hair felt healthy and great. After she was done I sat down to get washed and styled and here's where it all goes downhill. The junior stylist was assigned to me to wash and condition my hair. After she washes it, she attempts to detangle my hair with the conditioner but it's not working...my hair is being ripped out! She tried switching combs it just got worse. After 30 minutes of sitting there in pain I offered to detangle it myself. I struggled to detangle it - not sure if it was the conditioner or the comb but my hair was not detangling as easily as usual. I had just washed and detangled it that morning so this just didn't make any sense. There were globs of hair everywhere. Veronica walked over me and I thought great she's going to help me...nope, she came to tell me she was leaving to pick up her kids from school. I was totally blown away by this lack of professionalism. Anyway, all the salon workers watched me stand at the sink dripping wet trying to detangle my hair on my own. After I washed out the conditioner I then had to ask for product to style my hair by myself. I sat under the dryer super angry and disappointed. When Veronica returned I pulled her aside to share my dissatisfaction and she then accused me of having unhealthy hair and bullying her stylist. I was in absolute shock since she had just told me how healthy my hair was. Also, I had been so polite to the girl who was literally ripping out my hair because I didn't think it was her fault. To add insult to injury Veronica charged me $100 for the trim and styling even though I detangled and styled my own hair. NEVER going back again. Horrible way to treat repeat customers. With this kind of customer service they'll be out of business in no time. read more

I had a very nice experience at this salon. The stylists were very patient and explained the whole curly girl process in detail. They were eager to answer any and all questions. The cut that I received was great. I felt that they spent a lot of time with each customer, and when it was my turn I did not feel rushed at all. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 because I didn't get seated until about 20 minutes after my appointment was scheduled. However, the reason my appointment started late was that the girl before me needed a lot of work done with her hair. So maybe it's a good thing that they don't rush a cut just to end in time for the next appointment. My stylist was Jessica, and I would definitely recommend her to anyone with curly hair. read more

So, a few months after my haircut and it still looks awful. The layers don't blend at all, they resemble 2 shelves across my entire head. I can't even wear it curly it looks so ridiculous. I can't wait to go to another salon who knows how to do a dry cut on curly hair. This place is a joke. read more

I went in and ask for my bangs to be cut . She did a few clips and it added shape to my cut that I got a week before. I had to go to her for a cut because I told my initial hair stylist not to cut my bangs. Because they are closed on Saturdays and I had to leave to go out of town on Monday I just went for bangs . While the few clips she made added dimension I soon realized my bangs were way to short but because my hair was long on bottom I just dealt with it . Fast forward a couple of months and I went back to this stylist to get a TRIM and just shape up only. Why did this girl take my hair off ? I called back and told her it was uneven too which it still is months later. She said I had to wait until the weekend ( it was the beginning of the week) and when I told her that I would have to wear it in a ponytail she gave me a curt " That's fine ". I called and cancelled because I was disgusted and decided I wasn't gonna let her butcher my hair anymore. I went from wearing my hair out to having to put it in a ponytail every day because it doesn't have a style really and one side is longer than the other. I blew it semi out and I can't even wear it like that because it is a mess. NEVER AGAIN ! I held off on this review to calm down and be fair. But after about two months and having to see what my hair looks like still - I had to write this. And to be even more fair - I went to a salon yesterday after months of growing this out to confirm - one side is uneven. The same side has a disconnect in the flow and she had to cut my hair shorter to fix the length. The disconnect in the flow will take awhile . So no Naeemah it's not "fine ". Never again will I step foot in this salon. read more

I had such a great experience here. I've been going to Devachan for almost 20 years in NYC but since having our daughter and moving to NJ it hasn't been feasible for me. Veronica who is the owner was fantastic as well as Naima ( I may have misspelled her name :( They even helped me with my 1 year old while I was getting my hair washed. If you have curly hair and looking for a great haircut this is the spot!! read more

I am curly, I love my hair and I already was using Deva before going to Jersey Curl. Jessica did cut my hair with her very nice touch and I liked it. Why three stars? because even if it's way cheaper than Deva, it's very far for me, the ambiance looks kind of untidy and the experience (maybe just for me and my husband) was very noisy (there was a kid, I think the owners daughter). Maybe because we were two persons attended just by Jessica... of course that took 4 hours (I am very bad for the 'small talk') and I didn't liked the doll effect at the end. That thing lasted almost 4 days more...maybe it's me. Besides that, the place it's worth it for anyone who lives in Jersey and has lots of patience. read more

The cut is good, and the color is okay but the pricing is ambiguous. be prepared to spend a lot more than you expect. There is a major gap in pricing between the stylist and the receptionist so just make sure you know what you're getting and the price breakdown. read more

Rebeca was my stylist and she's amazing. I even recommended her to my aunt and she did an amazing job there as well. I asked for heat damage to be cut while not losing length and she did just that. She also did an amazing job with pintura highlights- I get compliments daily!! Thankful to Jersey Curls for their amazing customer service and dedication to beautiful healthy curls- thank you!!!! read more

I'd been unhappy with my previous salon for a long time but reluctant to make a change. So happy I found Jersey Curl and finally took the leap! I called last week and booked an appointment with Rebekah for yesterday. I had to wait a few minutes past my appointment time, but that was cool - she was taking the time necessary with her previous appointment and so I knew she'd do the same for me. It was really interesting to watch the process of the previous clients. This place was hopping and is nothing like any salon I have ever been to! You are asked to come with your hair as natural as possible and no product in it. Then they cut your hair dry sculpting each set of curls so they will curl their best and look the best curled. After the cut, your hair is washed and then product applied to seal in moisture and bring out the curls. I knew I had curly hair but was shocked with how curly and not frizzy my hair was when I left the salon. Things I really loved about the experience: 1) they didn't drone on and on about how much grey I have or push me to have my color done there. In fact Rebekah initially asked me if my hair was my natural color and after I told her I did my own color with Madison-Reed, she actually complimented me on doing such a good job with my roots, especially in the back. 2) I wasn't pushed to buy product there - which sort of shocked me, since the products are sort of essentially for recreating the results at home. It could have been just because it was such a busy Saturday. In any case, I'd been using some Deva products before and now since my cut I have a better sense of the right product combination for me and how how to use them (so I headed out afterwards to Harmon Discount with some 20% Bed Bath and Beyond coupons to get the Deva products at a slightly cheaper price.). 3) I wasn't pushed to come back in 30 days to maintain my cut - in fact, Rebekah suggested coming back in about 4 months to get it shaped up. 4) Unlike some previous reviewers, I didn't lose more length than I was prepared for. In fact, I could have been okay if more length were taken away but since I never blow dry my hair anyway, Rebekah thought it was in good condition overall and just took about an inch of my longish (mid-back length, when not curled) hair. The cut was not cheap, but if I only need to go every 4 months, I'm totally cool with it. Plus, I learned a lot about how to better maintain my curly hair and keep it looking nice and frizz free. read more

I have nothing but wonderful things to say about JCS. I wish it had existed when I was growing up, because I would go to salons that would give me terrible cuts and upcharge me for the extra time my hair required for a blow out. I've found JCS has the best pricing compared to NYC salons that offer similar curly-specific services. Most recently I decided I wanted to color my hair for the first time. I was pretty nervous but went for it anyway. Wendy worked wonders. I showed her looks I liked on pinterest and she managed to get the exact color I wanted. Additionally, the past two times I've gone they have had a completely booked schedule, the salon was PACKED and they still managed to take me on time for my appointment. read more

After canceling on these guys a few times, I finally decided to give them a try. I went to see Veronica about two months ago. Had my hair cut and had it highlighted with the help of the Pintura technique. I wanted to wait and see how my hair will grow and all. I love it! I love the results even more now than when all was done. The cut was done very well, hair is growing out very nicely. The highlights were placed perfectly. Veronica is the bomb! read more

I have gone to the salon several times and I usually enjoy my cut. However, I went yesterday and I told Jessica (I normally get my cuts with Veronica) that my goal was to keep letting it grow. She decided to cut a big portion of my hair off. Needless to say, I am not happy with the outcome. It takes a long time for curly hair to show length and I guess I'm forced to wait again. The cut itself is not a bad cut, however, it's not what I wanted! If i decide to give them another try then I will stick with Veronica. Let's see. read more

Curly girl salvation! If you've never had your hair done in the Divachan method, you are in for a treat Curlygirls. They've created an entire method from cut (they cut your curls dry and individually like they should be) to shampoo, rinse, product and even a unique and effective drying method. It allows all your glorious curls to retain their individual shape and eliminate ALL the frizz. This is not an overstatement. It is possible and these are the ladies to do it- and they will show you the process so you can do it at home. Nice new basement salon is relaxing and equipment is sufficient. Shared parking with doctor's office (although it's not posted you can!) Here it's all about the hair not the pretentious decor. Both stylists are trained in the curly method. Treat yourself! Don't fight your natural curls, embrace what your curls could be! read more

today was my second experience at jersey curl salon. I got my first devacut here back in March with Stephanie and loved it so much that I decided to go back and get another cut for some layers and volume as well as adding some color. I had my appointment with Rebekah and she was so sweet! I explained how i wanted more layers at the crown for volume and curls to frame my face. As for color, I knew that I wanted to do blonde pintura highlights but not so light that it would damage my curl pattern. Rebekah explained every step of the way what she was doing and why she did it. My second experience was amazing! My outcome was a bit lighter than expected so after i got over the initial shock I was definitely pleased with the results. The only thing i didn't like was that it took so damn long and a little pricey (i paid $250 for both the devacut and pintura highlights) but I feel like it's worth it. You don't have to keep coming back every so often to keep up with the trim, they actually recommend 4-5 months. The staff is super friendly and attentive. Definitely found my new salon that tends to my natural hair! read more

After 41 years I have finally found a hair salon that embraces naturally curly hair and makes you love your own curls again! I happened to just be driving by when I spotted the name of the salon and said I need to go to that place and I took the plunge...best decision ever!!! They educate you and truly advise you as to what works best for your individual curls. Place was clean, staff was personable and entertaining. Looking forward to my next visit and loving my curls more each day! Thanks Jersey Curls!!! read more

I got a haircut - but not one that looks good on me and what I wanted. I don't want to look at myself in the mirror until it grows out. The attitude is that - they are teaching you what you "should do" and it has nothing to do about what you want. BTW the price on their website is $45 but I got charged $80. WHAT? I had such high hopes, but when someone feels they are "teaching you", run away. When you go to a salon and pay good money it's about getting what you want. At least that is what I expected. Shame on you Jersey curl read more

I've gotten curly cuts and have been using Deva curl for five years now. After moving to NJ about a year ago, I was looking for a curly stylist in the area and I was referred to Veronica by my hair stylist in San Diego. Veronica listens to what you want and the result is always far better than what you expected. She's given me both haircut and highlights and I couldn't be happier. I asked for very short hair cut which is tricky for curly hair but Veronica did an excellent job. read more

I went in for a cut and color and I am not happy. I had told the stylist that I wanted my roots to be touched up and to be blonder. She insisted that I stay darker and add low lights to my hair to break up the all over color I had. I told her I was against it. After the color was washed out I see she did not lighten my roots and put a few dark caramel highlights on my roots. I told her I was not happy and that this is not he color I had wanted. She stated that the sun would lighten up my roots. Another stylist that was there insisted the color looked good but I did not need her opinion. I am not happy with the service and will never come back to this salon! read more

I went to get my haircut after years of avoiding hair salons for the same reasons most with curly hair avoid them. Wendy took care of me and transformed my hair beautifully. Her cut was amazing, she listened to all I had to say (take off damage, add layers). After the wash, she walked me through the styling process. I was amazed how even before my hair was touched with product, there was already so much more volume and shape. Never in my adult life have I been confident enough to wear my hair down unless it was straightened. Wendy completely changed that. I feel confident in using the products I have at home to recreate enough control and volume to look great with my hair down. She also did a glaze, which after discussing it, we decided red would like great (I'm a natural redhead who's hair has slowly faded to a more auburn like color over the years). Although I may never get back to that youthful copper color I had when I was a child, the glaze still reminded me of my childhood and looks great! Thank you so much, Wendy and Jersey Curl Salon. You've made me soooo proud to rock my natural curls always! *Although it is not cheap, I would say it's about equal with most salons in the area and certainly cheaper than DevaChan salons themselves. I would highly recommend to all who have curly/wavy textured hair! read more

Today was my first Deva Cut and Veronica discovered waves I never knew I had. She talked me through every step she was taking, showed me how to apply the product in my hair, and let me know what I need to do going forward in order to maintain my waves. I could not be happier!!! read more

I took my 5yr old for a haircut and even though the haircut wasn't too bad; my daughter cried because both the hairdresser and the assistant were rough when combing my daughters hair. The assistant who washed my daughters hair was worst then the hairdresser. She was very rough and had no sympathy for a 5 yr old and seemed upset to be working. My daughter has gotten deva haircuts before and never cried. I brought my daughter here because it was recommended but maybe it's ok for adults but not for children. Everyone looks miserable working and if your going to work serving people then you have to try and be pleasant especially when working with little ones. read more

I had my curly haircut with Jessica and I am very happy with the results. I love the shape, the price, the place and my stylist. Definitely comparable in quality to Devachan or Self in the city. read more

I've always hated my hair....too curly. For years , I spent a fortune straightening it and loved the results, but changes in formulas, etc started letting me down. I saw someone with beautifully curled hair and asked her where she went . It turns out, she goes into the city but had heard about Jersey Curls and the owner who had trained at the salon in New York I took a leap of faith and am thrilled I did. Not only is this the easiest , laziest , greatest hair ever. She cut my hair the proper way and taught me how to take care of it. I even get compliments on my curly hair. Big difference and all owed to Veronica read more
