Just got a haircut and a digital perm! Almost exactly what i expected! Look wavy and cute! The 2 ladies who were helping me were so nice and kind. the whole process took about almost 4 hours. The only reason I did not give a 5 star is because i mentioned to her how short i want my hair to be cut (about my chest area) but without warning she just cut and cut and she was so fast before i can say anything the hair is already shorter than what I wanted and unfortunately i can't stop her or even have time to say anything. i wish she communicate more with me while cutting. But it turned out So so good and i love it! so i am ok with the result, but I just wish my hair is a bit longer! I made a TikTok video from the process please check it out! TikTok format made it impossible for me to upload the video here. https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTdWtDuh2/?k=1 read more

I got a really good haircut from this salon! My hair was damaged on the ends from bleaching and not being cut for a year. I asked my hair cutter if she could trim the ends without losing much length and she did a great job. She layered my hair in such a way that she gave me volume, which my stick straight Asian hair never had. Afterwards people complimented how fresh and healthy my hair looked and asked me where I got my hair cut. I will probably be back for a digital perm or highlights! read more

Juni Salon - Trim with layers which added volume! - Hair Salons Near Me - Oakland, California

Let be start off by saying I am actually a hairstylist myself and I work in SF. I should have scheduled a haircut with someone I know but I was being impulsive and I just wanted a inch off my length because I'm growing my hair out but I wanted my layers brought up. I thought, this is a simple ask. Well, since I am a hairstylist myself the first red flag was... I walked in for my 11am appointment and the first stop was to wash my hair. Which seems crazy because there should be a consultation between stylist and client about what services and haircut details are needed. Nope. My hair was washed. I said 'I want an inch off and my layers brought up'. Stylist said 'ok trim' that's it. I knew immediately she cut off way more than an inch because I know my measurements. I honestly just close my eyes because I knew my hair was now going to be much shorter when I really just wanted my layers reshape. The wash,haircut and blowdry was all done in 30mins. I was out the door at 11:30am. I tipped well $75 30mins haircut. I am also in the tipping industry so it's hard for me not to. As another hairstylist professional I'm very surprised at the price vs the experience& results. I am unhappy about the length of my haircut and shape. But I am very particular. The haircut isn't horrible just not what I wanted. I think brining pictures as examples of what I like and don't like would have been helpful since there was very little communication. read more

TERRIBLE HAIR SALON. I came here to get a perm and it took FIVE hours. I have gotten perms before and they have never taken this long. The stylist didn't listen to what I wanted and gave me a weird perm that left my hair all kinked at the roots. I have gotten a korean perm before and this one was incredibly disappointing :(( read more

Hello Yessss I LOVE my digital perm! Have been looking for a stylist who was DTPerm in the East Bay for YEARS. Jennifer is THE ONE! Yes, she is juggling multiple clients at once but I was never left waiting longer than a few minutes and more importantly came out with the hair I went in hoping for. I admire her hustle! She is a talented stylist and I'm so happy to have finally found her! read more

Great experience with Jennifer, owner of Juni Salon. She understood my expectations, help me to style, and analyze the best style for my face, hair texture and lifestyle. He can engage a pleasant conversation with my 11th years old son who is a bit particular he cut his hair. Location is clean and comfortable. Will come again! read more

Juni Salon - Choppy A line - Hair Salons Near Me - Oakland, California

I went to this salon for the first time to get a haircut today. I did have to wait a little bit even though I made an appointment, but the wait wasn't too long (maybe 15 min?). The salon was clean and cozy, so I didn't mind the wait. They have water, coffee and tea with some magazines which was nice. I asked the stylist to give me layers and cut my hair a little below the shoulder. I think she did a good job. My hair has more volume now and it frames my face well, which is all I ever really want from my haircuts. It is sort of on the pricier end ($70), but otherwise a good place. She checked in with how I liked the cut at the end which I appreciate. read more

Juni Salon - Jennifer styled my hair. - Hair Salons Near Me - Oakland, California

Got a men's perm and ash blue coloration and was very happy with the result. Jennifer and her associate were friendly, professional, and receptive to feedback. Just be sure to allot 2 hours for perm and 4 hours for bleach + coloration. My friend came with me and got his first perm too and loved it. Pro tip: Go eat AYCE KBBQ at Goji time across the street and drink a bottle of soju before your appointment to get your creative juices flowing :) read more

Omgosh yasss!! Jennifer performed a fantastic job on my layers and digi perm! I love her professionalism, she goes above and beyond! I appreciate it! Such a kind and talented soul! I have found my favorite salon! Thank you Jennifer! read more

I am not sure if their man's hair cut is worth to $50. I would rather find other hair salon. My first visit became last.

With most of the businesses I visit (especially without any recommendations), I would turn to Yelp to read visitors' reviews; and that is what I did today. I was so tired of my dull lifeless hair, so searched for a salon in the area and found Juni. There were not many reviews, but I took a chance here... I called for a same day appointment for a partial perm and haircut, and was able to secure a 3:30PM spot. Not going to lie, I was nervous after I made the appointment, but am so glad I came here for this service! Jennifer (owner of salon) was the only person in the shop when I arrived. She was finishing up with a customer and greeted me promptly. The salon was well stocked with various hair products and the place is clean and very welcoming. Jennifer is an awesome stylist. She listened to what I wanted in a perm. She showed me pictures and made suggestions on what would suit my hair. She was very sweet and easy to talk to, and assured me I will get the wave I like, and not to worry. I asked for a slightly layered cut and loose waves/curls, and she delivered. She also treated my hair prior to the digi perm since my hair was dry. The haircut, treatment, shampoo, and, DIGI PERM process took 2.5 hours, incl dry and style. Needless to say, I was very anxious to see the end result. Jennifer showed me some tricks on how to style my hair, and gave me some do's and don'ts on how to dry and style. I am very pleased with the outcome and will definitely be back for a trim in 3 months, and, depending if I need touch up or not, maybe another perm in 6 months or so. I would recommend JENNIFER from Juni Salon. Thank you so much for giving me the wave I have been wanting! read more

By far the worst haircut of my life. I tried this place for the first time thinking "how hard would it be to trim off 2 inches of my hair"? The imperfections are horrendous. The cut is super choppy, the line is not even straight, and the customer service was lackluster at best. Please, pay the extra $20-40 at a high quality salon. It's worth it. My boyfriend attempted to fix my hair for me and it's still sooo bad. read more

I went there for hair perm and cut. I clearly showed the picture of hair I preferred and told the lady that I wanted pixie bob. I also told her that I knew it was impossible to have an identical cut, but please use this picture as reference. She told me she understood what I wanted. Guess what! She cut my hair so fast without measuring and also she was rushing for next client. The chemical dropped to my face a couple of times and shampoo soap dropped to eyes a couple of times, too. Rushing! Rushing! Rushing! It made me so uncomfortable and really wanted to walk out for air ASAP. Pixie bob style has hair covering the ears which provides us flexibility to creat different look daily. Because she did not measure and only rushed for next customer, the hair was above my ears. I looked myself. Hah! I just looked like a mushroom. Not recommend this store. read more

I would highly recommend this place for anyone with a hair fiasco to be taken cared of! I recently came in here for a haircut and was very pleased. Not only the hairdresser Jennifer was very nice and accommodating, she also gave advice on hair care. She washed my hair before the cut because I had product in my hair, and according to others, she also washes your hair after if you haven't washed your hair the day of. The COVID protocol here seems secure. There are plastic sheets between every station, and only about 1-2 people are allowed in at once. I was very satisfied with my haircut and the service. Definitely check this place out when you need your hair to be done! read more

The owner of the Salon was very kind and friendly; had a lot of conversation in between the service. She also wad fluent in English, as I over heard the conversation from the previous customer. I only showed her one picture, but she exactly did what I wanted, which was both surprising and satisfying. Will visit once more if I have a chance to revisit Oakland. ~ read more

Juni Salon - Selfie after the cut - Hair Salons Near Me - Oakland, California

Jennifer is the only one who can tame my thick hair to perfection. Just a picture is all she needs to replicate the style flawlessly. Despite the four-hour round trip from Sacramento, her exceptional service makes it worthwhile. read more

My go-to salon in the East Bay. I'm a Berkeley student so I've l tried places like Edge, but Juni Salon is my favorite -- Jennifer is extremely nice and detailed during the process, and small things like washing your hair after the cut adds to the experience. I can always count on Jennifer for a reliable haircut! It's definitely more the expensive side but the hair cuts and experience is worth it. For reference, my haircuts tend to be $45 + tip and a perm was around $140. read more

Accommodating. Made last minute appointment. Friendly stylist. Highly recommended.

I have been going to Juni salon for over a year and absolutely love the experience I have with her. She is so friendly and patient with you and want to make sure you're happy. Prices are great and with a shampoo and conditioner included you can't go wrong. You need to book your appointment with her. read more

They say walk-in's are welcome. That is definitely NOT true. They should update their business info.

I went to Juni salon for the first time to get a much needed haircut and Japanese Hair Straightening and I'm very happy with the results! They recently opened a few weeks ago with social distancing protocols in place. They have plastic sheets between each station, took my temperature upon entry, have plenty of hand sanitizer available, and both myself and the owner wore masks the entire time (the whole 4 hour procedure). It was my first at the salon so I was a little nervous at the start of the straightening process. I'm used to the Yuko straightening system and this salon uses a different brand, but all of my worries were put to rest by the owner who explained how the process differs from Yuko (the main difference is that the solution is applied to dry hair rather than wet hair). Now my hair is straight and smooth and so much easier to maintain! I just gained hours of my life back by not having to flat iron my hair every morning. Thanks Juni Salon! read more

They messed up my hair and tried to play it off as if they didn't. They literally know how to do one hair style for men. No matter what you request, they will cut it the same way. Don't try here read more

Amazing perm! It was my first time getting a perm, which I wanted to get after growing my hair out during quarantine, and my stylist (forgot to get her name) was extremely helpful about informing me about perm styles. I just showed her a few pictures of what I was trying to go for and the results were amazing! I will definitely be back for future perms & haircuts. read more

2 perms in, and about to go in for my 3rd. Coming out of Act 1 of the pandemic, I really wanted to try something different with my hair, and given the new length I had acquired, decided to try for a perm. (I probably watched too many K-dramas while in isolation.) Saw a bunch of positive reviews for men's perms in previous reviews and decided to give it a shot. Very satisfied with the outcome, the new style has made it super easy to maintain my super fine hair. read more

I had requested for Jennifer due to the positive reviews. She was very nice and professional, but the cut she gave me was the worst I've ever gotten. It was also the quickest. I had requested her to cut my hair shorter and to give me some layers. She spent about 12-15 min and was done. The layers were not even at all and did not show a progression of short in the front to longer in the back. When I didn't see the layers, I asked if she can give me more layers and she said that her style isn't like that. It's more textured and messy, hence, that was what I got. She gave me 2 more snips on the left and right and I was thinking I could have done that myself with no technique... The cut came to $60+tip, which is quite pricey for a quick cut that did not meet simple expectations. The cost also included a hair wash in the beginning. It was also very quick and rough, given by an older lady. I would not recommend coming here if you want a simple cut with layers. read more

Was lucky to have my walk in request accommodated, although it seems like they can get busy on weekends so I'd recommend making an appointment beforehand if you're able. Received a great haircut from Jennifer, who was very welcoming and friendly. I brought a picture for reference and after confirming some elements of it verbally (length, where the layers were, etc.), she matched it with no trouble. Will definitely return in the future. read more

Love the owner. I always request for her whenever I do anything to my hair. I only get haircuts here, or in Korea. Juni isn't a hippster Korean miss. Nope. She's like a mum. Actually she is a mum, to a beautiful grown, married daughter. The service is so great here. I don't understand the bad reviews, which I think come from people who are too uptight about haircuts or perms. They will deliver what you ask for. So if your final product on your head isn't what you thought you said, perhaps you need to check yourself, and understand that clear communication begins with TWO people. Also, we can't always expect to come out looking like a model on some hair commercial. I cut my hair here before I left for Korea. I had super long hair that reached my ass, and I just chopped it all off. I had total confidence that this salon would do my head real justice. EVERYONE, loves my new hairdo. I LOVE my new hairdo. It was one of the best decisions I made, and I bet it will influence other females to do the same. Already people ask me, where I got my hair cut. JUNI JUNI JUNI salon. Well worth every dollar. 100% satisfaction. Hair grows out. When it does, get it cut by these ladies. Unpretentious, relaxing, and talented artists of the HAIR SALON LAND. I really despise going into salons where you have to pay at least 150 bucks just for a haircut. That's so friggin ridiculous. BONKERS. Here, the prices are decent, and the talent is obviously shown, as they always made me smile at the end of every type of hair style I've gone through. I've got the perm, the wave, the shoulder length, the bob, the long long hair maintained... now I'm enjoying the .... let it all go phase, of true freedom, hairdo. I'm thinking of sporting a cooler and sleeker hairdo... mohawk with super sharp spikes? Well maybe not that free... I may seem like a free hippy type person, but I'm more on the 'let's not get too free with our bodies and fashion'. Meaning no daisy dukes, and swimming bra top bikinis, during any smoldering hot summers. Anyhow, it's been about a month, and already my hair is growing out. Looks like sometime perhaps next month, I'll decide what I want my hair to be. It's all in my gut feelings as the days go by. :P read more

Juni Salon - My pops tells me this is the best hair style I've sported. Thanks Juni Salon! :) - Hair Salons Near Me - Oakland, California

On Friday my colleague complimented my haircut and declared it the best hair he'd seen on an employee in our company this year. I have Jenna L of Juni Salon to thank for this new do, which includes a foray outside my comfort zone: bangs. I was a wee bit intimidated when Jenna L busted out the flat iron to use on said bangs (and the rest of my hair). Given I spend very little time on my hair and don't own a flat iron would I be able to replicate the style? As it happens, a blowdryer does just fine! And on a whim I bought a flat iron and discovered whilst using it today just how versatile the cut is. Jenna L at Juni is my go to girl now! read more

I've been to Juni Salon twice now, which is a big deal for me. I rarely go to the same stylist twice. I only cut my hair two or three times a year. I really trust Sora with my hair and highly recommend her! Each time I've visited, Sora has taken a lot of time to thoroughly examine my hair and give me a great cut. She explained everything she was doing the on my first visit, telling me that different parts of your head have different thicknesses/density of hair and that a good haircut balances out all of these varying areas. My first haircut, which was an attempt to fix a terrible cut I got a Givae salon, took nearly an hour and a half, including styling. You know you got a good haircut when you're immediately hit on as you step out of the salon! Other details: Haircut cost $50. Street parking one street over for free, or pay for a meter. Walk ins welcome. They offer a bunch of types of perms: digi, setting, etc. read more

I really did not expect my 300 dollar hair dye wane off within ONE month. I came to this place to color my hair in dark blue so it is not visible indoor but shiny outdoor under the sun. Just within 1 month, the color is completely gone and now the light yellow color layer the hair dresser put on beneath the actual color is now there. It just looks TERRIBLE! Very disappointed at the quality of the coloring service! read more

This is way over due review. I've been coming here for almost 10 years. Jennifer knows Asian hair so well and I've been satisfied every time I come here. Her gentle personality has always comforted me and she knows what I want. I definitely recommend her to all Asian ladies having trouble getting a good haircut at regular hair salons. read more

Recently got my haircut here and had an awesome experience. Jennifer, the stylist and owner, followed all of the proper safety protocols so I felt perfectly safe getting my haircut. I left with shorter and lighter hair after having to leave it long during quarantine. Be sure to get your haircut here to support local and small businesses! She's awesome! read more

Listen up yelpers: 5 minutes ago, I just had the Most Amazing haircut of my life...! I'm a guy, and I normally go for affordable hair cuts and call it a day. This. place. is. worth. every. penny. I didn't get the name of my stylist, but she was so gentle and sweet and her level of focus was unmatched! It was astonishing to see someone so masterful and immersed in her craft, and I left thinking "I'll call it an amazing day!" @Kudos Juni Salon, 12:15pm(tues) read more

Maybe I have very high standard. I CAME OUT looking like college ROTC boy. No matter how much I show my ideal haircut I got from the past, they usually end up doing their own ways read more

I definitely regretted going to Juni Salon. I had paid $60, plus tips to make myself look ugly. I was her only client that day which had already said much about the business. I had expressed dissatisfaction with my cut and gave her a chance to make it right. On every attempt, she just doesn't understand English, had kept arguing with me, and feeding me BS--that I needed to come more often so, she can better understand me and the haircut I wanted to achieve. I had to go outside and put coins in the meter where my car was parked just for her to waste my time again. TL;DR: Don't waste your time and money. Cut was simple, poorly executed, and overpriced. Parking was on the streets. Stylist was unprofessional, inconsiderate and argumentative. Seriously, you'll regret that you did go because you'll be taken advantage for slow business. read more

I've been getting my hair cut from Jennifer for a little over a year now & love coming here! Jennifer is very friendly & thorough in her work. She definitely strives to make her customers happy and satisfied when they leave. I have had no complaints about the way she cuts my hair (which is a typical Korean/Asian hair type). She's recently re-opened (from the COVID closures) & takes proper precautions, like wearing masks & adding plastic dividers between chairs. I felt perfectly safe coming in for my haircut. I would recommend calling to book an appointment, but overall think the prices are reasonable & she does a great job! read more

I am Korean American and fluent in both the Korean and English language. Apparently, I must neither look Korean nor look like I can speak Korean, because what happened to me in this salon will make your jaw drop and make you cringe. This was a few years ago and I'm only leaving a review now because my Aupair just recently went there and had a bad experience too. (I didn't recommend this place to her. She totally found it on her own.) I went there to get my bangs cut. Thats it. I figured it would cost about $15 - 20. It took about 15 minutes to do. The nice woman who cut my hair asked the owner how much she should charge me, in Korean. The owner was casually sweeping the floor next to us when she looked up and said $45, in Korean. I didn't flinch but I was very surprised to hear her say that. Then the woman who was cutting my hair said "Thats too much. I'm only cutting the front of her hair." Again, in Korean. Then the owner looked at me again and said in Korean "She can afford it. Charge her $45." The hair stylist finished cutting my bangs, took me up front the register and charged me $15. I kept quiet the whole time but I was pretty upset and was probably shaking at that point. Also, grateful for this rebel hair stylist for her integrity and honest heart. I was going to walk out and saying something to them in Korean to the owner, but nothing embarrasses me more than seeing someone else embarrassed, so I walked out and vowed never to go back again. And I haven't. They know how to cut hair but I will never contribute my hard earned money to that money grubbing owner again. Instead, I head over to Leon's in San Leandro who does a BANG UP JOB for a GREAT PRICE! read more

Called in to make a same day appointment after work on a weekday, she accommodated me. It's located right across the street from Gogi Time. Juni greeted me with such a bright and warm friendliness. As for the haircut, based on my hair type and face/head shape I told her to do what she thinks would complement me the most...and she went at it. She gave me a cute a-line bob, took her time, and styled it carefully! My test for haircuts is how many compliments I receive from the husband, coworkers, and friends...all loved it and said it looked nice. And all for $45 for a salon cut. I'm not too picky with my hair and have settled for a quick, no-hassle chop from Supercuts or great clips, but I have now become a devoted customer to Juni Salon! Yaye!!!! read more
