I was recommended the salon through Reddit and they were actually very quick to respond…read more The salon is very hipster, slightly retro, but very bright. They have really soft couches if you're there to wait for someone else getting their hair done, and just everything is so aesthetically pleasing. I showed up for a 15 minute consultation with Aloura. We went over everything we wanted and she gave me a quote of what to expect, payment wise. She did project a little higher in case we needed more products, which I appreciated so I wasn't thrown off at the final payment. Day of service, she was really nice, really meticulous, and very knowledgeable about the questions I had. She was patient, and she even brought over a little snack cart to choose from which was really fun. Overall, we're really happy with the hair and we would come back to see her specifically when time comes! Thank you Aloura!

I have been a loyal customer of Jovi Salon for over two years, returning regularly for appointments…read moreand trusting the salon with my hair. That history makes this experience especially disappointing. A few weeks before my appointment, I had my service changed to a move-up only because I did not need a shampoo. During that conversation, I was never told that I would need to arrive with completely dry hair. Had anyone explained that requirement, I simply would have come with dry hair. On the day of my appointment, I called the salon before leaving because I wanted to confirm that arriving with damp hair would be okay. No one answered, so I left for my appointment. While I was driving, the salon returned my call, and I answered. I explained that I would be arriving approximately four minutes late, which was still within their stated five-minute grace period, and I wanted to confirm that my damp hair would not be an issue. That is when I was told the service could not be performed. This was not a situation where I ignored instructions or failed to show up. It was a communication issue caused by information that was never provided to me when the appointment was modified. When I spoke with the salon manager, Leah, I hoped we could have a constructive conversation about the misunderstanding. Instead, I felt like I was repeatedly interrupted while she focused on explaining the policy rather than listening to my concerns. Although she ultimately waived the cancellation fee, she also informed me that I would no longer be allowed to book appointments at the salon. After being a loyal client for over two years, being dismissed over what was clearly a misunderstanding was incredibly disappointing. There was no effort to acknowledge that the communication from the salon had been incomplete or to work toward a reasonable resolution. This experience also brought to mind other concerns I have had over the years. On multiple visits, I was seated at the center table rather than in one of the traditional styling stations while paying the same premium prices as other clients. While I understand there may be operational reasons for the seating arrangements, it often left me feeling like I wasn't receiving the same salon experience. Additionally, there were many appointments where my stylist was working on two or three clients at the same time. I recognize that this may be common practice in some salons, but as a client paying premium prices, it often felt like my appointment was fragmented. Instead of receiving focused attention throughout my visit, there were frequent interruptions while other clients were being serviced. Over time, it left me feeling that the level of attention and overall experience did not reflect the price I was paying. I understand that businesses need policies, but those policies should be supported by clear communication, consistency, and a willingness to work with loyal clients when misunderstandings occur. Instead, after trusting this salon with my hair for over two years, I was told I could no longer book appointments because of a misunderstanding that could have been avoided with better communication. I appreciated that the cancellation fee was waived. However, I was surprised that instead of treating this as a misunderstanding and clarifying expectations for future appointments, the solution was to permanently refuse future appointments. I don't write negative reviews lightly, especially for a business I've supported for years. Unfortunately, this experience left me feeling unheard, undervalued, and unwelcome. I hope this feedback encourages the salon to improve communication with clients and to handle misunderstandings with the same care and professionalism that customers expect when they invest in premium services.

New to the area and finding a stylist isn't easy but this is not the place to go. I've been getting…read morehighlights all my life and somehow I walk in for a scheduled highlight and walkout $300 later with a balayage? I asked for my blonde to be touched up. She looked at my hair and was like "kind of like balayage?" And I said yes because my previous hairstylist always referred to my hair as "balayage-ish". I should've known something was wrong when she wiped out syran wrap instead of foil so that's my fault for not speaking but but I'm a trusting person. I also needed a trim. JUST a trim. Homegirl chopped my hair off and then gaslit me by telling me she didn't. Ontop of that she told me it was my fault for how I sleep that one side was growing better than the other so she had to fix it. I understand my hair was damaged on the ends but she easily took 2-3 inches off. I cried the whole way home. How do you not talk to someone before doing that? Communicate to your client what needs to happen and don't just get scissor happy because you think that's what is best. Now I gave it 2 stars because I guess the "blending" is good? To be honest I can't even tell because the money pieces are just blocks in the front of my face, my hair is too short, and the cut job is awful.

Use to be a great salon with very professional service. Stylist double booked last few appointments…read moreso an hour long service now takes 2.5 hours. This is not fair to customers who do not have hours to spend waiting in the salon. Also seems a bit greedy on the part of the stylist. In addition, the color service was bad and then of course needed to be corrected. More time spent in the salon. No apology from the stylist who then tried to charge me for her mistake. Another blow! Finally, no receipt was ever texted to me after paying.

Really loved my cut and style then, so next time I needed a trim I called them up. Sadly, my stylist I saw then had left for another job and I was extremely nervous to see someone else. She was the first person I had liked in a long time! Luckily they set me up with Tasha and I've been seeing her ever since. I don't even remember my original gals name! Tasha is awesome and always takes good care of me. I have pretty fine hair I've been trying to grow out for years and she always styles it well without taking too much off. I've been teasing her about wanting to cut it since my initial appointment, but never have the guts. She still keeps it cute for me while she waits for me to grow a pair. Reasonably priced - $40 for a good cut is worth it to me. I don't get color so not sure how they stack up for that. Love the coffee offered when you come in.

I never know how to explain what I want, but I showed up with pictures and she made the magic happen. The shampoo and conditioner was lovely. I really like the smell. The salon itself is nice and clean. It's huge! Some people do kids cuts so don't forget about your littles. The price was actually very reasonable! It's tucked in the corner over by Judy's Chinese restaurant and a sports bar. It's behind the target. They take credit card and you can tip on the card! Everybody in here was really pleasant. It's nice and bright inside and once again, very clean! This lady did an amazing job on my hair. She didn't take very long just gave me the exact cut I wanted. Highly recommend!

My hair is exactly what I wanted, and she made sure to make it happen even if it took 7 hours . This salon is by far the best salon I have been to in Virginia Beach! Elissa has picked some of the best stylist on her team and give them 10 thumbs up! I have done a color with Kim as well and came out amazing!

This was my first time receiving a service at Bracha Salon and I couldn't be happier. I had a…read morehybrid extension installation (sew-in + tape-ins) along with a color service, and I am completely blown away by the results. I've worn sew-in extensions for over five years and had a lot of reservations about getting them again -- mostly because of comfort, styling limitations, and having fine/thin hair. But trusting Leilani and her team was the best decision I could have made. They are true artists and absolute masters of their craft. My install looks completely seamless -- no one can tell this isn't my natural hair. It looks thick, full, shiny and healthy. The extensions are so comfortable I can't even feel them, and for the first time ever, I can wear a high ponytail without anything showing (IYKYK!). They've completely reset my expectations for extensions, and I feel excited to keep wearing them long term. & as an added benefit this service included a kit of shampoo, conditioner, leave-in conditioner, and an extension brush -- everything you need to maintain your investment! If you've been on the fence about extensions or are looking for a team that truly cares about quality, detail, and the health of your hair, I can't recommend Bracha Salon enough.

New location, new job, why not a new cut? I sat on the chair and Robbie asked what I wanted. I replied, "I want something different, but I am not sure what. Can you just do something for me that will compliment my face?" Without any hesitation or a thought, he knew what to do. Before he cut my hair, he did tell me what he was going to do and even though I couldn't see what he was seeing, I trusted him. As he was cutting away, I kept seeing my hair, piling up on the floor. It was like 5 inches and a lot of it just flying off of my head. I started to regret my decision. Once he was done cutting, I told him not to worry about drying my hair since it was raining really hard, but he refused and said that we needed to see what my hair was going to look like. He dried it and also curled my hair to give it extra volume. I think I lost 5 pounds after he cut my hair, but to be honest, I absolutely loved my hair cut! After years of having the same hair cut/style, I actually felt like a new person. Weird, right? I felt younger, looked younger, and the look was fun and modern. I was so pleased with my hair cut that I wanted to find an excuse just go out for the night. hehehe.
