I cannot say enough about Phylis. I came in desperate with severely damaged hair. It wasn't always that way as I used to have healthy hair but somewhere along the way it changed and couldn't recover. As a result I became the Queen of Pony tails. I will admit she did have to give me a mini intervention as I had to learn to trust the journey back to healthy hair which included bangs and wearing my hair down but 10 months the later, the proof is in the pudding as they say. It's almost unrecognizably different. My hair is full, shiny, limited shedding, growing and feels good. To top it off I'm in the midst of transitioning away from perm and still have this silky manageable hair texture (never thought that was even possible). Lastly to top it off, she genuinely cares about her clients like friends making it feel like your just hanging out with a good friend. read more

To spare the essay, I'll focus on the worst most disappointing part of the experience which was the manner in which the lead stylist Phyllis spoke to me about my hair. After agreeing to squeeze me into my scheduled appointment that she overlooked or wasn't aware of (scheduled for 12pm, sat at 12:25) and letting the shampoo girl start my blow dry, she launched a series of attacks against my hair in its natural state, remarking on its poor condition. When she told me that I needed a trim, I told her that I wouldn't be getting one at this appointment because I was still looking for a new salon. And one thing that I've learned over the years is that not everyone can cut or trim hair and after rereading negative reviews about her scissor happiness, I'm even more glad that I passed. By the end of my time in the chair she claimed that my hair hadn't been trimmed in 2-3 years despite getting regular trims every 3 months and in between protective/natural styles over the past 7 years. When I showed a reference picture of my hair blow dried she insisted that they would need to flat iron my hair to get it that straight and went on to say how I "clearly think I'm a hairdresser." Each comment about the dryness of my hair and deadness of my ends wasn't isolated or even paired with her approach to repair but was simply sandwiched with insult. By the end of the appointment, she ran the blow dryer through my hair in large sections, offered nothing to hydrate my hair despite going on about its dry state (no oils, sprays, lotions, creams, etc.), and did not charge me for the appointment. For everything that she said I asked if she had recommendations for how to go about caring for it (because I'm always open to new tips), and she offered nothing beyond just finding a place that can care for it and a flippant remark that she "doesn't know how I wear my hair." (That's typically a question asked at the beginning of appointments or at least through styling to identify problem areas, concerns with maintenance, etc.) Hair is too personal to have it be used as ammo by the same people self-proclaimed to be hair care professionals. I'm sure it's a great place for some women but I found it to be the absolute worst salon experience I've ever had read more

Phyllis is a wonderful, professional and very kind hairstylist. Her knowledge in haircare, styling, dying, relaxing is not only innovative but it's far more advance than any other hair salons I've encountered in Canada and London (England). My hair has never been this healthy, naturally shining and the compliments I have received for my haircut has been ongoing! I truly am grateful to have met her and she really cares about your hair journey, how we can work together to elevate your look! I am impressed, pleasantly surprised and her clientele is top of the line as well! a fabulous experience! a wonderful human being! and more!! I applaud her hard work! Bravo! Bravo! (standing ovation!!) read more

Absolutely awful experience. I went to her for a basic wash and flat iron. First of all, never let her near your head with scissors, and second, make sure you confirm the price. The advertised price online was $90 for this. I was prepared to pay this or even $120. That would've been fine by me. Let me explain more below. My BIGGEST issue is that after washing and blow drying my hair she mentioned I have dead ends and need them to be cut. I know this is untrue as my last hair stylist I saw last month remarked upon how healthy my hair is and how I don't need a trim. It was all the way mid down my back before I met this stylist I'm detailing in this review. Well, this is my first time seeing this new stylist. She said, "oh all your hair is dead. It's dead. You need a trim." I said I didn't really need a trim but if it needs it so be it and asked her if she could trim it. That was the biggest mistake of my life. She didn't trim 2 or 3 inches as she claimed. She CUT 6 inches of my hair. I cried the entire way home and cried myself to sleep last night. I feel violated. She claims she cut 2-3 inches. I'll let you look at the photos of the hair I had versus what she did to me in that chair claiming she was trimming it and let you decide. Then to add insult to injury she cut layers into it and bangs I didn't ask for meaning it will be hell to maintain on my own and never communicated with me. Any good stylist would have shown me with her hands where she intended to cut or trim (as my old stylists from the last 2 places I lived used to do). There was no communication just CHOP. I am utterly heartbroken and have been crying all day today and cried myself to sleep last night. It will take me 2 more years to grow it back. When I told her I wasn't happy with it she kept insisting "well it needed it! I only cut 2 inches!" (never insinuated I wouldn't pay. I paid in full but I am still utterly upset). She cut like a minimum of 4 inches, at least 5 inches. Please don't go to her. She doesn't do a good job communicating and seems to just take it upon herself to decide to cut you a bob cut when you had long flowing hair down your back. She kept saying it was a "trim." Then at the very end of it she said, "that'll be $170 for the cut and wash." So now she admits it was a cut. I wanted a TRIM. I paid for it without saying anything more as its clear the owner is too stubborn to admit that she did something without my consent. My hair was one of the few parts of me that I loved, and for that I feel utterly violated. While I paid her the money without further comment, its not about the money for me. It's about the move I had for my hair. It will take 2 years for me to get it that long again. Please learn from my mistakes. If you go to her, don't let her touch you with the scissors read more

See all

Phylis is a great stylist that is skilled in working with natural hair. Being someone with thick kinky curly hair, Phyllis handled my hair with care and has always been one of the few painless hair salon experiences I've had.

I started my hair journey with Phyliss in 2021. I needed someone who was knowledgeable and had the expertise to care for my hair. I stepped out on faith booked an appointment. My hair was causing me so much grief, it was damaged and thinning. Phyliss made suggestions and started treating my hair thinning. She styled my hair in a manner to make it appear fuller until the treatment started to slow down the thinning. A few months in I decided to go short. I needed to be free from my hair. My now get up and go style is so easy and manageable. Phyliss always execute my hair desires. She's magical with her sheers too. Her personality is pleasant and fierce. It's a lovely atmosphere at N-joyable hair studio. I feel like home when I'm there. Thank you so much. XOXO read more

I am blown away by the short style that I received from Ms. Phyllis !!! While I am an advocate for natural hair, Ms. Phyllis took great care in cutting my hair and styling it so well! When getting your hair cut into a short style, it takes a lot of trust in the styler and let me tell you; I place all my trust in this hairdressers ability to style my hair. I can't wait to go back and get another curly-cut soon! read more

I recently moved into the area and had been searching for a hairstylist. I tried a few salons that didn't work out so well. I was never fully satisfied with the final outcome so I continued my search. I decided to try N-Joyable Hair Studio and I'm so glad I did. Phyllis is so professional and extremely skilled at her craft. I have a pixie cut and had been told by other stylists that I could not get the cut I wanted because of my hair being so thick, but Phyllis showed me that it was all in the technique and she was able to give me the style I've always desired. Phyllis goes out her way to make her clients feel welcomed and happy. I always enjoy my visits with Phyllis and would highly recommend her to everyone. read more

We want honesty here right? I found the ladies in this shop to be very unprofessional. There were people I assumed worked there just sitting around eating take-out that smelled, and not really doing anything much to help. They didn't even acknowledge the presence of customers. Another woman seemed annoyed that I was getting served before her because she's "a regular". Sorry, I made an "appointment". I went in for a blowout for a party that night and it took me almost two hours before I was able to walk out with a blow out that was 'just okay'. They sat me under a cap dryer for 25 minutes saying that they needed to get the moisture out, while I got cold, my hair started to frizz and my shirt got wet. Why weren't they using a blow dryer for that like EVERY OTHER SALON I HAVE EVER BEEN TO? She seemed annoyed when I questioned it. It seemed lazy and like they didn't want to be bothered. The blowout itself was odd. She told me right away she didnt have the brush she'd prefer to use on my hair and then the one she used she was yanking out and definitely splitting my ends. I told her I was hard headed and not sensitive, but I definitely didn't want to have my hair shredded. Not only did they seem to have no sense of time or urgency to get clients in and out, but they then they tried to charge me more than the giant sign in front of their store advertised - $40 for blowouts. I had even called in advance to confirm the price. They never once said - if your hair is long it will be $60. She acted like she was doing me a favor by honoring the price she quoted me, and that was when I knew I wouldn't be back. $60 for a blow out - BYE FELECIA! read more

I started going to N'joyable Hair Studio back in March of this year. I wore braids for a few years thinking it would grow and strengthen my hair, and it did just the opposite. When I took the braids out my hair was very damaged. I was determined to find a salon who was knowledgeable with textured hair. So I did some research, read some reviews, and decided to give N'joyable Hair Studio a try. The first time I met Phyllis (the salon owner), she advised me on what she think would work best for my hair which was the keratin treatment. I wasn't quite sold at first but I was so desperate at the time and felt that I had to trust her vision. After seeing my progress over the months, I wish I would have had knowledge of this treatment sooner. Within 6 months my hair grew so much and is now so healthy and vibrant. She shows genuine concern about your hair journey, and always follow up with and email after each visit expressing her gratitude. I'm always a satisfied customer. This is my new salon home. To top it off her shop is always a whole vibe, great music and laughs. She makes you feel so at home. I always look forward to my appointments with her. read more

Dirty salon. Messy floor, unkempt items, stuff in the drain, bad lighting. Felt very neglected and like it wouldnt pass an inspection. I should have walked out but felt rude. The hair dresser was SLOW. I was there for 90 + minutes just getting a trim and blow-dry and she kept stoping to talk to people. I was in a rush by the hour mark (my hair still wet) and let her know. The hair cut was UNEVEN and I had to go elsewhere to get it fixed. The atrocious cut wasn't even the worst part about this place. The hygiene and service were childlike. The owner was disciplining her daughter uncomfortably in front of the 2 customers they had AND talking down to her employees. Everyone seemed unclear on that this is a business and not a social gathering. Did I mention how disgustingly dirty it was? DIRTY. Don't go here. read more

0 stars! I made an appointment on the Yelp app and when I got there no one was even there!

This place is awesome! Phyllis is on trend, quick and professional. I have found my new stylist! She is the owner and loves hair care.

I've come here twice with Tay and she is awesome! Got relaxer and blow out - hair looks great.
