It was a very hectic week right before Christmas and the porch salon worked me into their appointments when I called last minute on a Saturday. Their prices are reasonable and they do a nice job with color and cut. Everyone is very friendly as well. I noticed from the conversations that their customers have been with them for a long time. Parents, kids, and grandkids use this same salon. read more

See all

alberto is the best. and you can always get an appointment, they make sure to accomodate you.

This salon was very accommodating when I had to make a late afternoon appointment on a Saturday when all of the other salons were closed. I got a blow out and a trim. The trim was acceptable however the blow out was god awful. First of all the woman took large clumps of hair and as a result wasn't able to get the frizz out. After I asked her to touch it up with a straightener and curling iron, she did - however only in the front where I could see... To make matters worse, my hair recurled almost 2 hours later. I will not be back... read more

Been a customer here for some time. Dee cuts my hair and I couldn't be happier. All the staff are warm and welcoming. My wife and son--when he is in the States--also depend on Dee to keep them looking good and she always delivers. From time to time, I've observed other stylists working with kids on the autism spectrum. The kids' needs always come first. I recommend The Porch if you or someone in your family has sensory processing issues. In one case, the stylist I observed was so patient. She let the child touch her tools, feeling the vibrations of the clipper before putting it near his head. Putting the kid at ease was the top job. She helped the child make the best of a tough experience. Just another reason why I find The Porch to be tops! read more

This salon is the best in town. All the staff is friendly and accommodating. Alberto is very in touch with the latest trends and styles. He is also great with teens. He took the time to explain to my daughter how to blow out her her and what products to use. I highly recommend this Salon. It has a very family friendly environment and the staff all have a very nice rapport. read more

As good as it gets. I, and at times different members of my family, have been going to Lin and her cohorts for over 20 years with wonderful results. We are all very satisfied. Lin is warm and friendly but, above all, highly competent. She is also an excellent judge of talent, and has assembled a staff - Denise, Kim and Alberto - who all have years of satisfied clients establishing their reputations. Indeed Lin and Denise have worked together for over 25 years In short, if you want great results at very reasonable prices, go to The Porch. read more

First time this afternoon and I am so impressed! Alberto did an amazing men's cut on my friend...and Kim gave me a perfectly smooth shiny blowout! Considering the rain it is still perfect! If you are looking for a new stylist make sure you visit them!! read more

Not too happy lately with my hair cuts - hair dresser missing the mark on what I want done . Need to move on .

I went to the porch for the first time today and Kim helped me with my hair. I had been so tired of its old style and was looking for something fun and new! She was so helpful giving me options of ways of styling my hair and I left very excited about my new look. I would highly recommend the salon to anyone even remotely close. I went when I lived in New Jersey and I make the trip from New York City as well! read more

Very reasonable prices. Cut & style is only $28 (sign in window). Dee did my sister's hair for her wedding (and my mom's as well) - fabulous. Michelle did my updo for that and also a style for a different event - I was very pleased! read more

I received a haircut and color at this salon. The haircut came out nice, however the dye job is so bad there are no words. Firstly, it was permanent and I specifically asked for something that would last at least a month or two. The color faded completely after 12 days and 4 washes. The fact that the color came out would not be so bad if it was ombre as it should have been. Instead it just looks like I have chunks of different colored hair. The dye job cost $100 and I will now have to have this redone somewhere else. Stay away unless you would like to cut off all of your hair! read more

The Porch is a quaint little shop in downtown Cranford. I have been going to Kim for years and followed her to this shop. Kim is great and knows the latest styles and is honest enough to tell you if a color or cut will not look good on you. I always get color, cut & highlights by Kim! She cuts my husband's hair too!! read more

My 15 year old son loves getting his hair cut by Albert. Albert asks him questions and gives him great advice and tips. I recommend him.

The Porch Salon is a great place. All of the stylist are up to date on all hair styles. Great atmosphere, and fun group of people. I watch them all go above and beyond for their clients. They take customer satisfaction to the next level. I never wait long for my hair cut and the prices are very fair. My daughter and I have been going here for many years and I couldn't image going anywhere else!!!! read more

I have been going here for years and always have my hair cut by Lin. She's always does a great job and she's a sweetheart. I rarely have to wait more than a few minutes, plus - their prices are very reasonable. read more

LOVE this place! Lin is the best and always fun to talk to. She does a great cut (I get a lot of compliments!) and she's a magician with hair color. I always feel pampered there. Voski threaded my eyebrows (a first). She told me I'd learn to love my eyebrows... well, after one appointment with her - I really do! I found Lin and The Porch by asking a woman in a restaurant who cut her hair? Lin is THAT good :) read more

I have had hair cut by Dennis for 40 years. He originally worked in Elmora and went "suburban." Good - less travel time. Call for an appointment and all of the stylists are within 10 minutes of the appointment. My honey is very pleased with Dennis' work. Very relaxed atmosphere here. read more
