So friendly and welcoming here! Manicure and pedicures thorough and professional. So many designs and colors available! Great service

I had a very disappointing experience at La Mode, specifically with a technician named Kevin. I came in to have my acrylic nails properly soaked off and to get a gel set with a specific shape and style. I showed a picture of exactly what I wanted. Instead, Kevin chose not to soak off my acrylic, he filed down with the machine and rushed through the process, leaving my nails uneven with leftover acrylic still on them. On top of that, he cut my nails short and rounded them without ever asking me, this was not what I requested at all. When I politely asked if he could reshape them, his attitude immediately changed. He became rude and dismissive and then said, "I'm done here," refusing to continue the service. I was left with nails I didn't ask for and had to leave feeling completely unheard and dissatisfied. I do want to acknowledge that another staff member was very kind and apologetic, which I appreciated. However, the overall experience was extremely unprofessional, and I would not recommend booking with Kevin.. read more

DON'T WASTE YOUR $$$$ HERE. Update..., two days after leaving this sorry excuse of a salon with the most vile & painful gel manicure of my life thanks to owner June & her hubby Kevin, I decided to request a full refund. Please refer to my first review for the particulars. After my husband's comments, the opinions of many friends & umpteen years of gel manicures I wholeheartedly concluded it was indeed so wretched that a full refund was warranted. Please view images I posted of the $60.00 gel manicure which chipped after 2 days. Kevin said he would refund my money & when I swung by the salon I was met by June who glared at me then practically threw the cash refund at me. I was surprised they so readily agreed to refund my money...., could it be because they knew damn well what a horrid job they both did & realized I wasn't going to allow them to get away with it. As I was putting my money into my wallet, predictably my gel mani chipped & ironically it was the nail of my middle finger which chipped first!! Armed with my refund I could only smile ruefully as I promptly spent it on a proper, painless & perfect gel pedi in the salon next door called Ambrosie. Perhaps I will get a gel mani there as well this week. Devyn read more

Salon La Mode - 2 days after a $60.00 gel mani at Salon LaMode. - Hair Salons Near Me - Millburn, New Jersey

Decent place for a pedicure. I went as a walk-in on a Tuesday morning and the place was empty. It appeared clean. It has about four hair styling chairs on one side, four manicure chairs on the other side, and three pedicure chairs in the back. There is a tiny sectioned-off area for waxing or massage or something in the back also. The technician that did my pedicure was polite and attentive. It's definitely a no-frills kind of place, but fine if you want 40 minutes of peace to get your feet worked on and your toes painted. I would go back. read more

Love this place & owners very welcome energy top tier service!!! They really take their time when doing your nails no rushing

I have not had my hair done here but my nails. The place is a bit dated and Ken does seem to be very talented with hair, but I come here from time to time to get my nails done. Reason - they are very competent AND unlike others use autoclaved, packaged supplies to avoid the risk of infection. Pretty much the same price as elsewhere too. If this is important to you, this is one of the few places that have this level of safety. And if not, it is still a good manicure. read more

This was my first time getting acrylics done and I am super happy with the results. Anna, my nail tech, was super kind and my nails were done very efficiently. The prices are also decent considering the quality of work and service. Overall I would recommend. read more

I give this place one star just because their hospitality was great. Otherwise I'm sorry this has to be the worst acrylic job I have ever had. Thick uneven and sloppy. It's probably best described to be if my 3 year old niece put playdo on my finger nails to play nail salon. I almost want to cry. I'm sorry but I will never be coming back. First and last. read more

Salon La Mode - Couldn't get worse - Hair Salons Near Me - Millburn, New Jersey

I recently redeemed a Groupon for a deep conditioning, cut, and blowout at this salon. After showing Ken a photo of what I would like to do with my hair, he was meticulous and methodical, showing me exactly how much he wanted to trim. He nailed the style perfectly, and blew it out magnificently. This salon may lack frills and spa-like decor, but it offers superior service. In fact, Ken has approximately 30 years experience doing hair, and his expertise definitely shows in this exceptional cut! read more

I regrettably had a terrible experience here a couple of months ago, my gel manicure bubbled and lifted before I even left the salon. Didn't have time for it to be redone so I had to leave with my nails scraped clean of the disaster, all scratched and messed up, only to be charged for a full manicure nonetheless. I'm not the fussiest of customers but was quite appalled that they felt that the way they left my nails warranted a full charge. Luckily I have since found a wonderful salon with top notch products and equipment down the road which will be receiving years of regular business from me! read more

Poor service, rude staff. And I saw a cockroach walk right across the floor while there.

I just left my appointment and I'm furious. I came here on a Groupon and he cut almost all of my hair off even though I told him how long I wanted it to be. Then he didn't know how to properly style my hair. I look like an old lady. It's a simple blow out and part to the side and it looks horrible. If you have even slight ethnic hair, don't dare come here. You'll be pissed just like I am right now. Now I can't wear my hair curly until I grow my hair out because it's above my chin. My hair was down my mid back when I came in. Very pissed! read more

Ken is the best kept secret in Millburn for hair cuts & blow outs! Excellent service & quality of work. You won't regret making an appointment with Ken! read more

I bought a groupon for haircut and deep conditioning. I couldn't be more happier with this place! Ken is very professional. He listened to what I want and did just the perfect job! The lady (too bad I forgot to ask her name) who washed my hair and deep conditioned my hair was so nice and sweet! I am so glad I found a awesome place that I will keep going there! Highly recommend! read more

Had a lovely haircut here by Ken! Had the groupon offer of a cut and blow out and was very pleased with it. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Will definitely be back! read more

Ken is very talented and his haircuts are great.. but.. he takes really long w the blow outs !!

Walked in here because the back of my pixie cut was driving me truly nuts. The salon isn't much to look at honestly. No real decor or coherence. They accommodated me though I didn't have an appointment. The Hispanic lady who cut my hair was very friendly and attentive. She asked me several times throughout the haircut if she was going in the right direction and styled it beautifully at the end. Got several compliments that night. Only downfall was the girl who washed my hair. I will have nightmares for weeks about her nails scraping against my scalp. Overall a good experience. read more

Yes, there may be a slight language barrier, but Ken provided me with a great haircut. He had me confirm length using a mirror before he cut my long hair into a shoulder length and was meticulous about both sides being symmetric. I came here for the first time with a Groupon and had no problems getting an appointment. Good service, friendly staff, and sanitary (when ken dropped the comb he was using, he immediately put it in the jar of blue stuff and picked out a clean one). Will definitely return. Took one star off because although prices are reasonable for the area, it's still pricier than salons further away. read more

I have a new place to go for pedicures - Salon La Mode. Lovely salon and a superb pedicure. No need to look further.

Ken & June are the most wonderful & professional individuals at this salon! Ken takes so much pride in his work and June will relax you with a massage on any day. They are an asset to this business. read more

Great place for eyebrow threading! The girl always does a fantastic job

Very nice people, but I'm sorry to say that I got an awful haircut. I think I didn't realize at first because of the way it was blown out, but after I washed it I saw how crooked it was. I'm seeing all these reviews about what a great stylist Ken is.... Is there more than one Ken at this place? read more

I have very curly and short hair (not what one sees in fashion magazines; ever). Yesterday I had a haircut wit KEN. He was amazing. He was professional, focused, listened to what I wanted and executed a healthy and wonderful cut. I highly recommend KEN. read more

I purchased a Groupon for a deep hair conditioning, cut and blow out. I had a positive experience. My appointment was with Ken. Everyone at the salon was very nice and on time. The service was good and my hair came out very nice. I will return to this salon again. Thanks! read more

Had my hair done by Ken for the second time and he did a great job! I showed him a picture of what I wanted and he made some recommendations according to the shape of my face and hair texture. It was similar but even more amazing! Also, the woman who did the wash and conditioning to my hair had a superb touch. Thanks! read more

I have been going to this salon for 5+ years and it is a real gem! June's chair massage is the absolute best!

Nice, nice people BUT - Hair straightening deal though Groupon - Lavox from France product. He tested my hair, said my hair was good and then ruined my hair. Un-combable from the start and has not improved with time. Texture is like elastic. It will take years to grow my hair out. read more

Ken did an amazing job! He is a perfectionist, in a good way! Hard to communicate if you change your mind about something, but if you go in with a picture of what you want, that is what you will leave with. Amazing skills! read more

I had a great experience here with Ken. He is very talented and he took good care of my hair, making sure that the length was right and showed me how to style my hair at home. I definitely come back using other services. Thank you! read more

I redeemed the Groupon deep conditioning/cut/style voucher here and had a positive experience with Ken and the team. The head massage after the conditioning was awesome! I showed Ken a picture of the haircut I wanted and he delivered. He also made sure to show me how much hair he would be trimming. Quick and efficient service - you can tell he's been doing this for a while! The friendly staff were an added bonus. read more

Now I finally understand when people say they wish they could give less than 1 star. Came into Salon La Mode to get a haircut by Kent. Showed him this picture http://hottest-hairstyles.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Rachel-McAdams-Loose-Locks-hair-252x336.jpg and specifically asked that he make my hair "not too short" to which he replied "yes, not too short" (My hair was nearly down to my elbows pre-appointment). He asked me to point how long I wanted to keep my hair and made an imaginary line below my shoulders. He made an initial cut at that level while I still had my glasses on so that I could be reassured that he would follow my direction. Then with my glasses off, the butchery began. After a couple minutes I realized something was going terribly wrong but jokingly said "that sounds like a lot of cutting" to which he replied "just making layers, just making layers". It wasn't until he began drying my hair that I realized what he had done. Take another look at the picture I asked to replicate and then look at this picture showing the end result of Kent's work. http://s14.postimg.org/d1mq9o8dt/hair.png Not only did Kent completely disregard my wishes, but he did so while repeatedly LYING to me about what he was doing. He purposefully misled me and tried to keep me calm by continually lying and reassuring me that he was doing as I had asked. Completely unprofessional and unethical. There was absolutely no warning or discussion about what he was planning on doing. Had Kent veered off the path I had provided but offered an on-trend, well-done look, maybe I wouldn't have been so upset, but this haircut is so out-of-date and the layers are so short (the shortest layer in the back is up to my eyeballs) that there is nothing that can fix this until it has grown out for months. Having someone physically change another person's appearance (in a near permanent way) without her knowledge or consent is entirely unacceptable. read more

I got the hair cut and deep conditioning deal form Groupon.com. First I got burned with the hair dryer stand that wasn't working properly(there was leakage and hot water was dropping on my left shoulder thank God I was quick), Second I didn't get the cut I asked for. I don't know why but all I know is although is close to my place but there is no way I would go there or recommend it to any one. Third: worst customer service ever!!!!! the supervisor didn't even said that Sorry for what they've done to me. read more
