Got recommendation from Airbnb host for Salon 808 to get my hair cut before a wedding. Needed my…read morebangs, layers, and side shaves done and wanted 1.5 in trimmed off my length. They scheduled me with Brandy who was awesome, so attentive, educated me about clarifying shampoo, did a very relaxing wash and blow dry, and my hair looked like a Kpop stars by time she was finished. Extremely reasonable pricing (compared to where I'm from, San Francisco Bay area in California), I was shocked $75 for a very individualized cut, wash and blow dry, with lovely conversation along the way. Glad I waited til getting to Hawaii to get my hair did! The salon was clean, took a hot minute to locate cuz we didn't follow the driving instructions on their website. If u come from pedestrian level street u need to take elevator to 7th floor of the high rise.

This was my first time here. I searched the internet for someone who handles hair donations. Found…read morea few reviews for a stylist named Karen. She was amazing. I didn't think I would have much hair left to cut after the donation snip but boy was I wrong. The donation process was quick. She measured, tied it 3 times and cut. Then I asked for a haircut cuz I wanted it shorter. She gave me a discount on my haircut. She did a wonderful job. Everyone loved my new haircut. When I first got there, I asked if I could get a wash too but she was booked. However, after completing the donation and hair cut, she was able to squeeze it in! I was so grateful. We talked about my hair and body hormones and she gave me some really good tips and samples and we also discovered together that I'm allergic to metal! I was 37 years old and finding out, duh! lol. The place was busy and bustling with happy clients. It was a really good feeling, unlike some other salons I've been to. This salon had really good energy.

I cannot recommend Tiffany enough. I've had great stylists in the past, but truly -- nothing…read morecompares to her. I actually switched from previous stylists just to see her, and now I go to her every single month. She consistently makes my hair look and feel amazing, and I can honestly say I've never loved my hair or my color more than I do since seeing her. I get compliments all the time. Beyond her talent, she's such a genuine, kind person who really listens and cares about her clients. I trust her completely with my hair. I've already referred multiple friends to her, and they've all had great experiences too. If you're looking for a stylist who is consistent, incredibly talented, and truly passionate about what she does -- she's the one. The studio is beautifu, fun, clean and welcoming. Truly top notch.

This was my second time getting a haircut with Kelly because the first time was such a great…read moreexperience! I had some idea of how I wanted my hair cut this time around, but wasn't too sure. I was comfortable with asking Kelly on her thoughts because I wanted direction and advice - I had my hair cut elsewhere before, and they either weren't able to provide me recommendations regarding my hair type or just took my request and weren't able to give me proper direction. My haircut turned out way better than I expected! Kelly was great to chat with during my haircut session and made me feel comfortable. I also saw other clients having a great time chatting with their hair stylists - so no matter who you go with, you'll be in good hands!

I've been going to Dee for over 5 years now -- even back before he opened his own salon -- and…read morethere's a reason I've stayed this loyal. I usually go to him for both my haircuts and balayage, and every single time I leave loving how my hair turns out. His skills are truly top tier compared to other stylists on the island. I tried several hair stylists around Oahu before finding him, and none of them compared. Dee is incredibly talented, but what I appreciate most is his honesty. He'll always tell you what will actually look best for you rather than just doing something trendy that may not suit you. His salon is also absolutely adorable. The space has beautiful pink décor with gold accents that gives it such a warm, stylish vibe (definitely feels like his wife's aesthetic!). Both Dee and his wife are so sweet and welcoming, and their energy makes you feel like more than just a client -- it makes you want to keep coming back long-term. For anyone trying to find the salon: it's located on the 10th floor of the Ala Moana Center office building. The entrance is directly across from Genki Sushi inside the mall, which makes it really easy to locate once you know where to go. Most importantly, I trust Dee completely with my hair. That's why I don't go to any other hair artists or stylists on Oahu. He genuinely cares about his clients and about the quality of his work. He takes pride in his art and never wants you to leave disappointed. On top of that, he's a great conversationalist -- and I say that as someone who is naturally pretty introverted. Every appointment feels like catching up with a friend. Dee is also someone who carries a lot of wisdom, and seeing him always feels like a breath of fresh air. If you're looking for someone you can truly trust with your hair, Dee is it.

Yoshi is without question the best, in terms of skill, as well as delivery, of the "high style; low…read moremaintenance" haircuts that the salon advertises. He really listens to what the customer desires and uses his knowledge and skills to deliver the best cut and style that works for the person's hair and time devoted to achieve/maintain the style. Additionally, his shampoo experience, which is also offered as a stand-alone service,l because it is so exceptional, not only is the best shampoo experience, but it is a treatment in itself, as he incorporates pressure points and a mini shoulder massage to relieve tension and totally relax you, like a spa experience. Above all else, the staff and the energy at the OAK MONSARRAT SALON, truly exemplifies the Japanese omotenashi and service. All of the products are also hand-picked, for eco-friendliness and the finest quality for your hair and the environment.

The result turned out even better than I expected. His service exceeded all my expectations, and I also took away so many valuable insights from him. Sometimes making even a small improvement for someone costs nothing, but it can make a person truly glow with happiness- and that's exactly how I felt. I waited over a month for my appointment, and I can confidently say it was 100% worth the wait. Thank you, Yoshi!

I just moved to the area not too long ago…read moreand I had a rough 2 weeks at work and told myself that I was due for a beauty run/self-care (in this case, a haircut. My ends are so dry!) I was nervous at first but everyone especially Mai was SO welcoming, even offered me snacks and water. I explained what I wanted and she added her input - I didn't even have to show her a picture and my hair was exactly how I wanted it. She truly made me feel so welcomed, it was easy to converse with her. Her compliments made my day as well ~ I've never experienced this great of a service in a while. I had to hug her AGAIN after we were done lol. I have found my new, established hair dresser!! Will be taking my sister here as well, when the time comes. THANK YOU SO MUCH, MAI! YOU MADE MY WEEK

My haircuts with Mie are always fun and the staff are always encouraging and give great advice on what hair would look good on your face and even adjusting styles to see what would look better! I always get my hair cut by her and she always does an amazing job. I'm always amazed at the precision and skill it takes to pull off the hair styles I want but she never fails to deliver. She also is so good about recommending styling product and heat tools to use if your hairstyle is high-maintenance. Mines is pretty high-maintenance but she always guides you on how to style yourself so that you look good every day not just after your hair appointment! Whenever I go to her I always like to go out because I love my hair LOL No isolating for me :P Their space is also very clean and aesthetic. Everyone is so nice and I always feel calm and have fun with everyone... But I also just love to yap so.. Love their nice mirror in the bathroom that I take selfies in. LOL
