J & A Hair Salon

Everything about there sucks. Right when I walked in, she looked at my nails and said «we don’t do acrylic» I would’ve done my eyebrows if she didn’t have an attitude. Maybe even a pedicure. I hope they go out of business soon! I wish I could give them a negative star

This is not the place to go if you want a spa like pedicure. The ladies her chat with one another even from across the salon, if that kind of stuff annoys you, avoid this salon. The equipment didn’t seem clean or well maintained either. The nail filers they used looks beat up and the lady that did my pedicure kept letting her long hair dip into my polish. Yuck.
Friendly, relatively fast service if you can’t make it to your regular nail salon for whatever reason and need a decent pedicure. My favorite nail salon on the island so far is Pearl Nails in Pearl City.

Came here with my other half to get a pedicure… As I walked in and told her we both wanted pedicure. The first thing the lady told me was «sorry my chairs aren’t strong enough and their old» as if she was giving me a hint that my boyfriend can’t get a pedicure just cause he is an over weight guy. horrible! Horrible!!! But then she told me If I still wanted a pedicure… Me as being mad and upset already because of what she said. I told her NO!!! and walked away… WHATS THE SENSE OF HAVING A SALON IF YOU CANT EVEN TAKE PEOPLE IN!!! What a disgrace!!! Ugh!!!

I went in for a manicure, and I’m pretty okay with how it turned out. I felt like it could’ve been better. As I was getting my manicure, the lady who was doing my nails kept talking to her coworkers in another language. I found it really unprofessional how she tried to go on her phone while trying to do my nails. I got the gel and she said it would last for three weeks, it started to peel after one week.

Buyer beware! I came here for my ombré and was very sad. I wanted an ombré hair with ash blond and left with orange and breaking hair. My hair was basically falling out when the lady took out foils. She said it was normal but it wasn’t. I went to another salon a few weeks after and they told me that she over processed my hair. And all the orange parts were all dead. I was pretty disappointed because I’ve always had healthy hair barely any spit ends. And I was stuck with a head full of dead hair. They lady in the other salon tried to fix it but you can tell it’s not healthy anymore.
I also came back 2 months ago to do my nails thinking that maybe the nail techs would be good because my friend told me that she got her nails done there. Also I had to get it done early and they opened early @9am. Thinking I should get my nails done before work since I start @12:30. I went there and the doors closed!!! I called and she said she’ll be there in 15 minutes stuck in traffic. I’m thinking this should be an omen. So I went home had breakfast and come back. Ok, I was skeptic at first. Yes!!! I need to trust my intuition. You guys trust your intuition!!! So this nail tech took 3 and a half hours to do my gel manicure and pedicure. And I got cut in the cuticles on 3 fingers. I also got charged $ 50 extra for a design that was only two lines and different for color for each nails. I think that’s kind of a rip off. The other salon I go to doesn’t charge that much when using more than one color.
So I recommend all of you to stay clear from this salon. I didn’t learn the first time.

Had a daughter/​mother day & decided to go there. My daughter did a pedi & I did a mani. We were satisfied with their service. It’s clean & very economical. We will go back there again…

My mom and I decided to try this place out for a change since we usually go to Cloud Nine or ViVi. It’s a small place but they have a total of 3 chairs for Spa Pedicure and 2 of them are behind a wall so there is lots of privacy.
We both got a pedicure. And even though we arrived a little past 6 without an appointment and they were going to close at 7pm they still took us happily. The workers did what they were supposed to. They didn’t really talk to us so we took advantage of the massage chairs and just relaxed.
I’m pretty pleased with how our pedicures turned out. It was inexpensive and its a good place to try with their promotion of 10% off services.

Anna did such a great job. She was very quick and amazing! And it was really affordable. Not expensive, at all!

This review is for Anna. Place to go if you want a fast hair cut. Only tried this place out because my friend who usually just cuts hair bangs over there said she was good.
Anna was cutting really fast barely tried to check if lengths matched on both sides. Usually when people cut hair they also part sections of the hair but she never did that once which is okay to me if they know what they’re doing. So at the end of the haircut I inspect my hair to see if my lengths were relatively close to the same length since she never did it once at the end of my haircut. And then she goes Oh this side is a little longer so she fixes it. Then I inspect again and she says you have to grabs the 2 back strands of hair and says you need to compare like this. OMG! I’m not fkn dumb! I want to compare other parts of my hair not just the back!
If you want a fast haircut with okay quality this is the place to go. Don’t come here if you’re expecting a good quality haircut.

melvin is one of the best hairdressers!
this review is for j salon (not j &a)

I came here for a mani and pedi combo and they did a pretty good job but I mainly gave them 4 stars for service and how friendly they are. They took me in right away as a walk in and the lady was super helpful and patient as I was trying to choose my colors. Also, she was a very umm… enthusiastic about up-​selling (don’t wanna say pushy lol). But what made me wanna come here was the ad on the window saying they are giving 20% off all services! So a Mani and pedi came out to be $ 26 :) (not including extra $ 5 charge for french)! I was gonna get the fading nails but it was $ 7 extra and her examples didn’t look that great.
So the lady I had took A LONG time on me… don’t know if that’s a good or bad thing but I ended up staying there about an hour and a half. I got a french manicure and the paint has already been peeling off after less than a week so the polish they use isn’t all that great. I mean, not just chipping but peeling… like I can pretty much peel off all the polish in one piece. And when she finished I noticed a piece of lint on the white tip and I wasn’t going to say anything at first then I though, this lint is going to annoy me and I better say something. So I nonchalantly just asked her what that black thing was under the polish and she couldn’t see it and thought I was talking about my nail line where the pink ends because you could see a little bit of the line beneath (if that made sense… sorry hard to describe!). After examining it for a few minutes and not understanding what I was trying to say, she just wiped it all off and said she’d redo it. So after she redid it I found another lint in the bottom clear part of my nail lol but at least it wasn’t as visible as on the white part so I just let it go.
Anyways, after I paid and everything, I went in the car and found a few other pieces of lint… haha oh well I guess you get what you pay for! But it’s ok they were like things you could only see in really good light and microscopic pieces, I think I’m just too anal. All in all, they’re friendly and cheap so I’d probably come back again.
