“Ali did a beautiful job with my haircut/blowout today. Showed her an inspo pic and gave me exactly what I asked for. The service was quick as well. Definitely recommend!“

“I really like my experience here everybody was so nice i came in for a glaze and she literally gave me what i asked for the only thing that inconvenience me was that i asked if she could put curly hair products in so it could air dry and after she didn’t dry it i didn’t mind because it was hot out but i did put my sweater on because i hate wet hair on my back i had been so used to my hair not bleeding out that i forgot when its wet it bleeds out and it stained my hoodie it’s unfortunate because i did spend more than $100 dollars plus the tip“

“Boutique hair salon where you have a dedicated, and personalized experience. Jules energy is so welcoming. It was so fun to get my hair done. Jules is an expert. She listened to what I needed and recommended what I would need in the future. She’s so personable and sweet, I highly recommend this salon!!!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Truly Exceptional Experience with Jaclyn M.
Gumdrop Hair Salon is such a gem—stylish, edgy, and welcoming. The atmosphere is thoughtfully curated, and every team member I’ve encountered has been kind, attentive, and professional.
Yesterday was my second time seeing Jaclyn M., and I honestly can’t say enough wonderful things about her. I’ve spent years searching for a stylist who could get my blonde highlights just right. It may sound simple, but time and again, I ended up with tones that were too ashy, too platinum, or even slightly orange.
Jaclyn listened—really listened—to my frustrations and preferences, and she absolutely nailed it. Not just once, but twice now. Her skill and attention to detail are unmatched, and beyond that, she’s simply a lovely person to spend time with. Warm, genuine, and easy to talk to.
If you’re looking for someone who truly understands color and takes the time to get it right, I can’t recommend Jaclyn highly enough. She’s a rare find, and I’m so grateful to have found her.“

“Julia is truly a color expert! I showed her some inspo pictures I had, and listened to what I was feeling/had in mind. I didn’t even have to say much, Julia just KNOWS her colors! She gave me a copper that’s the perfect blend between what I want and what compliments my skin/eyes the best!“

“I cannot speak highly enough of the lovely people, specifically Andre, who work here :) I leave feeling like the best-looking and luckiest lady in town! I would recommend Salon 121 far and wide, especially for the Keratin treatment.“

“Barber & Co @ Montclair’s clean and comfortable interior is housing great talent like Mr. Mac, whose skill and experience was immediately demonstrated in his confident and welcoming demeanor.

I left my appointment with the perfect cut/fade to get me through these hot summer months, while still retaining the style I always aim for with my hair. Needless to say, Barber & Co @ Montclair is my new go-to.

Mac is the man!

Updated 12/29: Mak’s still got it! Feel like a million bucks after another visit to Barber & Company.“

“Just got another awesome haircut by Leah!!
Most importantly, my haircuts have been consistently great and similar. Leah thank you for listening to my needs“

“Yvette achieved the platinum color i wanted. My blowout lasts for days and handles my hair w so much care!!“

“I have been a client of Studio D&G for over 15 years, and I can’t say enough wonderful things about this salon! Nicole is truly a master when it comes to color. Gina is just as amazing—cutting and styling my thick, curly hair is no small task, but she handles it with skill and precision. She always gives me a cut that works beautifully with my curls.

The entire experience at Studio D&G is warm, professional, and consistently top-notch. After more than a decade of being a client, I can most certainly recommend them.“

“I normally never leave reviews because Im insanely lazy but this place exceeded my expectations. Maria is just amazing. She really worked with my type of hair and the style I wanted. She was insanely patient with my hair and making sure that I was comfortable with everything. And Ive never loved a hairstyle/haircut so much my whole life. Really boosted up my confidence so thank you to Maria, I highly recommend her!“

“Love the Pure Energy Hair Studio Salon in Montclair, which uses Aveda products — something I truly appreciate for their clean, vegan positioning and commitment to sustainability. It’s one of the many reasons I love going there, knowing that both the service and the products align with my values.

I’ve been going to Allison for over five years now, and I honestly don’t know what I’d do without her. She’s incredibly talented, and what sets her apart is how deeply I trust her — something I’ve never experienced with any other hairdresser before. You know that feeling of anxiety when you sit in the chair, unsure if they’ll cut too much or go in a direction you didn’t expect? That’s never happened with Allison.

Even when I come in with only a vague idea or a not-so-detailed description of what I want, she somehow understands exactly what I mean. It’s like she can read me like an open book and translate my thoughts into the perfect cut or style. Her technique is truly remarkable, and she has a gift for making you feel completely at ease and taken care of.

Allison is not just skilled — she’s intuitive, consistent, and genuinely cares about her clients. I feel so lucky to have found her, and I honestly dread the thought of ever having to go anywhere else! I even converted my husband — and now he goes to Allison more often than I do, haha!“

“I'm so glad I found this salon. Emir gave me an excellent haircut and knew exactly what would suit me. He truly is an artist.“

“Tella was an absolute joy to work with. She did my sew-in for my wedding and it held up through the wedding, honeymoon, and months after! She picked great quality hair, and answered all of my questions and concerns before my appointments. I’d recommend her to anyone! And getting my hair done there felt like I was hanging out with friends. It was a great experience.Services: Shampoo & conditioning“

“My female friends suggested I go here after many crappy barbershop haircuts, but I was worried about if they could get my hair right as a guy.

They did it better than right, it was perfect!

I love this studio so much, and I’m never going to a barbershop again. My stylist was so great at understanding what I want and giving that to me, and she made amazing conversation. And not the awkward uncomfortable conversations you might be used to from a barbershop, but genuinely wonderful, fun, and interesting talks that I still smile about looking back on.

Amazing spot, reasonable prices, lovely staff, and an incredible vibe. Couldn’t recommend it more.“

“I've been going all over looking for a barber that listens to me and get my bed right and my homeboy Pat right here in Montclair too it to the next level. Come check him out NASTY barber“

“I love going to hair karma! The staff is always lovely, very professional and personable! I will continue to go to this shop as all the stylists are great at what they do and make all styles look amazing!“

“I brought my 90 year old mother in law in today and she is very pleased and she looks fabulous. She stated that Grace was very kind and pleasant. We will be coming back.“

“This is long overdo… my new go-to salon. Obviously a hidden gem. I got a beautiful cut. I also had my hair done here the day before for a wedding. I had wanted to do both in the same day but booked myself way too late and only had time for a quick up-do before I ran out the door. The woman who did my hair knew I was running super late and literally just said just pay tomorrow when you come back and we’ll cut your hair then. Who does that?! This is why local businesses are amazing. Anyway my hair looked great that night and the long cut I got has lasted months and months and has grown out beautifully. I’m hoping they are open this weekend so I can go back. Thanks guys!“

“I’ve been living in Montclair for nine years now and have gone to every salon in the area until I found salon organic. It’s so nice going to a non-toxic hairdressing salon that is calm and relaxing. Anne and Dennis are so welcoming and do a really nice job on Colour. I highly recommend salon organic“

“The Shamilah Experience is EVERYTHING!!Yesterday morning was my first visit with her, and she was as amazing as I expected. Shamilah is a true professional who is highly skilled, very personable, and very knowledgeable. Everyone has been ranting and raving about my new look..I must admit it does look fabulous and beautiful! I highly recommend her!!!NOTE: Shamilah received a last minute call to do a celebrity's hair while I was in her chair. She refused the job. She said she would never cancel her clients' appointments, not even for a celebrity. Her clients are most important!Services: Haircut“
