Tip: Answer phone calls or texts right away, or reply within a day or you'll lose customers! Lesson learned: don't buy salon Groupon before calling the salon for an appointment! I purchased the Groupon for Megan's women's haircut. A few weeks after, I remembered to use the Groupon by trying to call and text Megan for a women's haircut appointment last Saturday during hours of operation. No response from either until today. Today, I tried calling the salon's main phone number again during hours of operation. This time, I left a voicemail. With a busy schedule I have including wanting a haircut before leaving the island next week for vacation, I don't have time to play phone tag, especially when all other beauty services I patronize such as my regular nail salon and eyebrow threader are very responsive via text. I immediately found another Groupon for May's Salon. One call, and I already have a haircut appointment booked for 90 minutes from now. I better get off this review so I can show up to May's on time! I'll find a friend who has more time and who'll want to use my unused, nonrefundable Groupon before it expires. I want impeccable service the rare occasion I primp myself (I'm low maintenance)--friendliness, talent, and in this case, efficiency, promptness, and communication to satisfy paying customers like me! EDIT: Apparently, according to Yelp, the salon is closed on Mondays, but its website shows that it's open on Mondays 9 AM-6 PM; hence, me trying to call for an appointment. Another good business practice besides being responsive with calls and texts if it's available is frequently updating your website and social media. Not everyone uses Yelp. read more

I see Joe for my color and cuts. He's taken awesome care of me for the last year. I'm always very last minute and call him for appointments day of and he always does his best to accommodate me even though I know I drive him bananas. This past time I saw him I told him, "my princess hair makes me powerful...and he is the power source." Lol. I would highly recommend Joe. Additionally the salon is both clean and quiet and all the other stylists there are also always warm and pleasant. The prices are very reasonable and well worth the service. read more

Sabrina Fair - Taken after my most recent visit - Day Spas Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I found a Groupon deal for this salon and thought it would be a great idea to surprise my boyfriend with a new hairstyle and some highlights. I left the salon feeling happy, but it was an average experience. The Groupon coupon was for highlights, blow dry, shampoo, and haircut for $49 which is a steal. However, contacting Megan was really difficult for me. I left a voice message to the salon and I texted her, but I got no response after 5 days. I was ready to give up when I decided to call her number during normal business hours and finally got a response. Luckily, I was able to schedule my appointment with her the following week which went pretty well. The salon is located on the 4th floor of the Honolulu Club which is across the street of Neal Blaisdell Center. The salon itself is very clean and kind of up scale. The staff are really friendly. My hair appointment took 3 hours. I think Megan that day was behind schedule because she was finishing up a dye job/haircut with a client while working on me so at one time, I was waiting near this blow dry thing with the tinfoil and highlights mix in my hair for a good 10 minutes. I tried walking around to find her and couldn't find her. Luckily, after another 5 minutes, she showed up and took out all the foils. She also did a mask and shampooed my hair. She cut my hair okay. It wasn't the best hairstyle I got ever, but it was okay. I loved the highlights she put in my hair though. It turned out amazing. Megan is really sweet too and she ended up giving me 3 20% card off. read more

I used to go here because I've been a long-time client of Nellie's. However, the last two times I've been to her, I have not been satisfied with her services. The second to last haircut she gave me, she gave me a haircut I did not want at all, so I made her re-cut it. I had wanted a one-length bob but she proceeded to give me an odd inverted bob cut with very long sides and a much shorter back. The re-cut was much better and more of what I wanted. Although I lost length, she was able to make the cut look more like a one-length bob. She did a good job on the re-cut. Unfortunately, my last haircut was the worse cut ever. First, I needed to switch my appointment from 11:00. She said she would switch me with her 10:00 appointment. When I showed up for my 10:00 appointment, there were two of us waiting for one appointment. She had forgotten to ask her client to switch appointments with me. I had to wait an hour and nearly missed getting back home to pick up my son at school when I was done. Second, she gave me the same inverted bob haircut that I disliked and had made her re-cut. I even brought photos of an all-over layered haircut (like an updated shag) to make sure she knew exactly what I wanted. The haircut looked like the shag from the front. But when I got home, I saw the back was short with sides that were 2 1/2 inches longer. I was expecting a long layered shag haircut, not an inverted bob. It looked like two different haircuts on my head. She had made the sides so jagged and thin that when I tried to blow dry it the next day, they looked thin, flyaway and wispy. She had taken too much weight off my sides, which are already thin to begin with. I was extremely disappointed and upset. In addition, she talked me into "undercutting" the back of my hair, since that area was very wavy. She claimed undercutting would make it easier for me to blow dry my hair straight. "You'll love it!" she told me. When she had suggested I try to have her "undercut" my hair, I did not fully understand what it was. In fact, I didn't even know it was called "undercutting" until I went to another stylist. Nellie told me: "don't get mad at me now if I do this." In hindsight, her comment should have given me pause. But I had great faith in her because of her years of experience and expertise, so I wasn't concerned at the time. Up until the last two haircuts, she had always done a superb job on my hair and had always given me the cut I wanted. The undercutting didn't work. It made my hair harder to blow dry straight because a large section was way shorter and layered underneath the top layer. When my hair is short, it really get wavy and hard to control. And my hair lost thickness--she undercut so much that my hair didn't have any weight and felt so thin. While I could get the top layer smooth, the undercut portion was super curly and wouldn't lie flat, causing the back of my hair to stick out. I paid $100.00 including tip for a haircut that I didn't want, and one that was difficult to style. I felt it best to go to another stylist to re-do Nellie's haircut instead of having her re-cut it, since Nellie told me "not to get mad at her" for the undercutting. The other stylist said that undercutting is not done on thin, fine hair like mine; it is a technique reserved for thick, wavy hair. Twice in a row Nellie gave me a haircut I never requested nor wanted, so there was some kind of communication breakdown going on. I no longer felt comfortable, so I thought it best to move on. Update: When I posted this review back in December 2013, I got a phone call from Nellie a couple of months later. She was very unprofessional in dealing with me and never tried to rectify this issue. read more

I recently was on Groupon and saw a deal for a hair cut, deep condition, balayage, and style. I thought I hit the jack pot once i saw the trusty yelp reviews. Nope. Pros: 1. The salon is very clean 2. It's in the Hon Club building, so, they validate parking. 3. The hair cut I received from Megan was really good. That's the only reason why I rated 2 stars. That's where it ends Cons: 1. I showed Megan the picture of how I wanted my hair, she didn't do anything what the picture showed. My hair came out orange. (I'll upload pictures). 2. Megan had to tone my hair. Which is not a problem, but my hair is still orange. 3. While the salon is minutes from closing, she was rushing to finish me and another one of her clients. There was another older lady at the salon, who shampooed the other client. The client left with wet hair because Megan was running behind. 4. I didn't get my hair deep conditioned 5. I contacted the salon and Megan (through text) the very next day and expressed my concerns. It is now Wednesday and there have been excuses from here to the moon about scheduling, they can't fit me in, It makes me think that they want me to take off work so they can "fix" my hair. 6. I have asked to speak with a manager or someone since Monday. No response. I even text messaged the manager, Nelly, with pictures. I think it all chalks down to inexperience and a salon that couldn't care less about potential clients. Edit to add: the manager (Nelly) and I sent text messages back and forth. She would respond at like 1250a. I still tried to call the salon's number to no avail. I felt like we were going back and forth too much, I decided to go with a more professional and reputable salon. read more

I can't believe that no one has reviewed this place!!! I am soooo happy I bought this groupon. I mean I live in Chicago and this could have very poorly for us, but we were pleasantly surprised! I bought two groupons for $35 each for a mani-pedi with Nicole Christian. They validate your parking for 2.5 hours, a complimentary drink, and do a callus removal and salt scrub massage which were included in the deal. This was such a great find and Nicole did such a thorough job on the nails. I was able to upgrade it to a french tip with no problems. The pedicure lasted me longer than a month (until I had to get it removed for another pedicure for another event!). She was very gentle with my blisters on the bottom of my feet and I am very ticklish so this ended up very funny for my fiancee and her because I was laughing and giggling the whole time. I would definitely go to Nicole if I lived there because she did such a great job for the manicure and pedicure that I had for the wedding and reception in Hawaii. read more

There's only one reason why I go to this salon and its because of Nelly. I've had the pleasure of having Nelly as my hair dresser for over 10 years. I've followed her from Paul Brown to Bottega and now Sabrina Fair. She's the absolute best in the industry and your haircut will look great even after 3 months. She won't be the cheapest in town but the quality is definitely evident and worth the price. She's also a master at highlights and lo-lights. She will minimize the amount of damage done to your hair by using the best products available. Her technique and results remind me of what I see in Japanese models. With the different layers in colors, it looks radiant and very natural. Just trust in her and I promise you'll come out with your hair looking gorgeous. Although I've never tried any of the other services here, I've always been greeted by the most courteous and friendly staff. They offer coffee or water and have a tiny waiting area in the front. The parking at the Honolulu Club building is really tight and uncomfortable but they fully validate so I can't complain. read more

Buyers beware! Stay away from Missy. Never answers phone or returns calls or texts. Sabrina Fair salon phone was never answered & message not returned either. Unable to get a hold of anyone related to this place or stylist to even schedule an appointment. Don't waste your time or money on this one. read more

I'm so frustrated with this haircut from Megan. She did not do what I asked for. I left the salon thinking that it was nice, even though it wasn't what I asked for. However, the more that I try to wear this hairstyle, the more frustrated I become.... It's one of those hairstyles, where I just have to grow it out and have someone else fix it. read more

I brought a voucher from groupon -missy at sabrina fair on aug. 12, i texted her a few days ago to set an appointed then I got a text back that she is not running a campaign from groupon anymore for about a month now and advised me to contact groupon for a refund.

Similar to another customer's recent post, I have not been able to contact this vendor via the phone number provided on the Groupon. When I called, the voicemail recording was by "Missy", who also mentioned that she could be contacted via text. When I texted, no response...3 days later I received a response stating that she does not do Groupon, does not do hair, and to stop texting. Ridiculous. read more

Missy is awesome! I've always gotten $20 haircuts from wherever is convenient and my hair always looked like shit after. This was my first time at a nice salon and it was definitely worth it. Missy took her time and did a great job and wasn't in a rush to see another client. By far the best hair cut I have ever gotten and well worth the money. read more

Megan is a Wonderful Stylist!!! I needed a change for so long and never have time. Today last minute I found this salon on Groupon and contacted Megan, who responded my message within 30 minutes!

I recommend Megan 100%!!! read more

I bought a Groupon Coupon for a mani-pedi back in July and saved it for my b.day gift to me! Should have used it sooner so I could get to know Nicole. I was very pleased with her services and made an appointment for a facial with her in a couple of weeks. Unfortunately for Hawaii she is moving soon to SF. I will miss her, her level of professionalism is superb. And the spa itself is a nice retreat after a hectic weekend. read more
