TRANSFORMED. That's how I feel after my latest visit to MILA j. I always feel good leaving this salon -- where I've been going since it opened -- and this time was no exception. When I came in, my roots were showing and my hair was completely frizzy. Yasmin colored my hair and gave me a keratin treatment. She is a true artist! If you are looking for a new home for your hair, visit Yaz, who will listen, get to know you, and take your hair places it's never gone before. read more

Mila J Salon - Hair Stylists Near Me - Totowa, New Jersey

Called inquiring about Hollywood waves for wedding party; bride and a bridal party of five girls. Called and got put on hold twice which is fine but when I spoked to the receptionist, she was EXTREMELY rude. She was huffing and puffing when speaking with me. She asked me for my availability for a consultation and when I gave her it, she rudely told me they are not open those days and asked if I even knew what days they were open. I replied no and asked what days I can come in. She said Wednesday's and I said fine but then she switched from me needing a consultation to a trial. I was confused because I did not know why I would need a trial before a consultation and she seemed annoyed and asked me rudely "don't you want a trial?". I cut her short and said never mind. I will take my money elsewhere to people who give good customer service. First impressions are everything. Hire somebody who cares about customer service because they represent your establishment. read more

I highly commend Mila J Salon! Jen is a excellent, innovative stylist! I've been going her for almost 15 years. She and Holly could not be more accommodating. Big thumbs up! read more

Hands down best salon ever. I went here after needing a major color correction done and they did not disappoint. I initially started with Jenn (who is absolutely amazing) and just recently started getting my hair color with Yas! And trust me, you will not regret it. I went in there one day needing a self care day and left feeling absolutely beautiful and saw my glow back. read more

I've been a client of Jen's for 18 years. Almost all of my friends go to her or someone in her salon. When my brother started dating his girlfriend I referred his girlfriend and three of her friends to Jens salon and they've been going ever since for cuts and dyes (they see Malorie or Nicole). About a year after Jen opened her own salon I tried one of the other girls out, Malorie. Malorie is extremely talented, easy going and personable. Jen and Malorie are both excellent and flawlessly talented. Im never disappointed. Jen has a great place going and I'm so thankful to have her local! (Although when I moved to away for college I'd drive the 1.5 hours one way for my haircuts, the distance never stopped me) I know what I have going for me. Last additional note: I get complimented on my hair constantly. They know what they're doing! read more

My hair looks AMAZING every time I walk out of this salon. I honestly will not go to any other salon because Jenn knows exactly what I like and kills it every time when it comes to color/cut/style. Everyone on the staff is super friendly from reception, to the shampoo girls, to the stylists. They always make sure you're comfortable while you're there and they've got a great atmosphere. It also doesn't go unnoticed how hard working the entire staff is with their clients. Jenn was able to take my dark roots and bring me to bright blonde which I thought would never be achievable. She has done this twice for me now from natural dark brown to blonde, back to natural roots and now back to blonde again (full set of highlights) pictures attached so you guys can see what I mean. There is nothing I don't like about this salon, I highly recommend them :) read more

This is a gem of a salon and my favorite stylist is Laura. She has cut or styled everyone in our family. She is lovely and easy to talk to, really listens when you want to make a change and stays up-to-date on color and style techniques. I would get my hair done there every day! read more

Disclaimer: I hate getting my hair cut. HOWEVER... Mallory gets that. I feel confident letting her work her magic on my hair, whether it be a haircut, blowout or color. I started seeing her at her previous salon and followed her to Mila J. Ever since I started visiting her, my hair has been healthier and has a lot more shine. Previously, my hair was over processed and dry. Over the 3 years of visiting her, I have really watched my hair transform and make me feel a lot more confident. Aside from haircuts, I also get a full head of highlights on a regular basis. She is an expert when it comes to color. The color is never, ever brassy colored or dull. She is patient and takes her time when doing your hair. My mom visits Nicole at this salon, who also does a great job on highlights and haircuts. Overall, this is just a really good salon. I recommend it to everyone. All the girls at Mila J appear to be super talented and friendly. The salon is really cute, nicely decorated and comfortable. I love coming here and never have trouble getting an appointment. read more

Mila J Salon - Hair Stylists Near Me - Totowa, New Jersey

Love Mila J Salon! Nicole Mariella, you're my hair savior!! Many compliments, beyond words! I came to Mila J as a new client after a different salon did a bad brass/orange highlight job. As a dark brunette I wanted some highlights to lighten my look/provide some glow. Nicole nailed the color/photo I showed her during my consultation. She fixed and got rid of the different shades of brass the previous salon did to my hair. She thoroughly listened and explained everything she'd be doing to my hair to achieve the result I wanted, and I couldn't be any happier! Also, the owner Jen is a sweetheart and being at her salon makes you feel special . Prices are honest and reasonable, All the staff were nice & down to earth & the salon has very cool decor. I'm so excited to have my new go to salon! You guys are awesome! I'll be back! My hair loves you! Thanks again -Eve read more

My whole family gets their hair done here (cuts & color) and we trust all of the stylists. Jen Martinez, the owner, is an expert at producing natural looking color & gorgeous styles. Laura, Mallory & Becky are also amazing!!! Actually, everyone here is consistent, from blow outs to prom braids. It's such a treat to be pampered and leave the drama that I've experienced at other salons behind. Prices are reasonable & the salon is cute! We love MilaJif your in Montclair it's only 15 minutes away. It's worth the trip! read more

Highly recommend this salon. I needed to find a new stylist was not happy with my old stylist at another salon. Received highlights and cut by Nicole Mariella before scheduling I did come in to meet her because have a hard time finding a stylist that can cut and color short hair. It's either to short or color is to severe rather then "blended" so far I like the salon. Booking my second appointment shortly. There also open on Sundays which is a nice perk. read more

Super nice ladies. I came in for a trim but my hair ended up being super choppy :( one side was shorter than the other. When I called to let them know the issue they were super nice about it and asked me to come back so it can be fixed. It was not. One side still ended up shorter than the other. I'm glad I didn't go back for my highlights. read more

I've been getting my hair cut buy Jennifer Martinez, and literally, only, Jennifer Martinez for 20 years. I hate being girlie and having routine maintenance appointments for nails and hair so it took me a few years to get into a routine for highlights. In the interim, Jen was able to swoop in and save the day the multiple times in my life when I turned my hair orange, or green. I came running to her open arms in tears and left thanking her profusely, every time. Jennifer Martinez is a mad scientist. She can help anyone with color, cut, any hair issues. She's well and formally educated and has 20+ years experience. Not to mention, the Hair Stylist gene apparently runs in her family so she has the DNA on top of it. You can tell her what you want, and she can do that or tell you what might look better. Don't question it, give into her. She's a true professional. read more

So going to a new hair salon is always somewhat distressing. But the yelp reviews steered me to Jennifer at Mila j. Let me start with my hair. I am and older woman with dry, thinning on top, grey hair. I did not want to go to a young stylist because many of them don't understand the needs of us mature women. But I felt very much at ease with Jen. I did meet with her for a consult and she seemed very knowledgeable and did understand my issues. So I made an appointment for a color and cut. Once again I was concerned about the color not being right and the cut too short. But I am happy to say Jen got it better than right. I wish we had taken before and after because the change was unbelievable. Haven't looked this good in a long time. Jen is someone who I think you can trust to help you look your best. Can't say enough good things. The salon is very nicely decorated and not at all intimidating as some larger salons are. Will refer some of my mature friends to this Salon. read more

Real Gem of NJ! I finally found a hairstylist that understand what I like. Everyone in the salon is sweet, polite and courteous. Laura is an amazing stylist. Love my haircut and the color! read more

First time not a recommendation from a friend. I saw on Facebook pictures of clients before and after and I was impressed because of the different hair types that she had made look great. When I came my hair was a mess. Jennifer explained what she would do different in her consultation and it was exactly what I wanted without me saying a word. Since then I have been going to her for over a year and my hair has just gotten so much better. In the past, I would go to someone for a long time and they would stop trying to do their best and my hair color would show that. Jennifer also has helped me immensely with my curly hair. This is a true shock. If you have curly hair you understand how your hair is unique to you and it is very hard to find someone who can make it look pretty. In my 41 years, I have never been able to get someone to do it curly until now. Since I trusted her when she recommended products and used them at home on my curly hair, I am truly shocked with how good it looks. Furthermore, when you come into the salon you are treated like a valued customer which is become more of a rarity these days. The employees take your coat, direct you where to go, ask you if you want something to drink. Everyone in the salon acts like a professional and takes their job seriously and the results show. So finally, I whole heartily recommend this salon for anyone looking for a true professional salon that understands how important your hair is and how it makes you feel. read more

I really like this salon and my hairstylist,but I told her that my goal is hair treatment and be blond without yellow color..So i got my hair done and instead of blond my hair came out yellow ...so disappointing about results,maybe if I ll go one more time she can change it,but not sure,specially for this high price.. read more

Seeing all the pictures, looks like a very talented colorist at the very least, but I was in need of a cut. Was apprehensive with few reviews for the amount of time they have been at this location, but I decided to walk in on blind faith. I spent a decent amount of time talking with the stylist explaining to her what I wanted done & my concerns because prior to my visit here, someone had gone chop happy with thinning shears who clearly did not have a license to operate. Feeling comfortable that she understood & had a solution, I went ahead with the cut. Big mistake, she only made the problem worse. She was a younger stylist and I don't wanna name names, she may be the bomb to her regulars, but with me she detonated & it showed on my do. Sadly I didn't find my hair home & would not recommend this salon. read more

I love this salon and have been coming here since they opened. Mallory is my stylist/colorist and always does a great job! My adult daughters come home from out of state to go to Mila J for their hair needs. The entire staff is friendly and always accommodating; they're here when I need them! read more
