JV Salon

I’ve been seeing Jordy for over a year now and I can’t say enough great things about her! She’s taken my dark ash brown hair and turned it into a beautiful auburn, then a beige blonde with gold tones, then a gorgeous bright blonde balayage, then a sultry ash blonde for the winter, and recently a lovely toning treatment with highlight touch-​ups for my wedding. It was has been an incredible time working with her I’ll be sad to leave Hawaii later this year.
Bookings with her are by text, check our her ig page for some of her amazing work! jordy. locks
FYI: This salon has independent stylists who must be individually booked by contacting them directly. I’ve seen all of them work their magic and recommend coming here!

This was my first time at this salon. Best place ever! Jordy was my stylist. She is awesome! She helped me choose the color prior to our session and also gave tips and ideas. She made me feel comfortable and was very attentive. My boyfriend said that this was the best hair style I’ve had yet. I agree! Love my hair color and love the cut!

After having Kimmie play w/​my hair on several occasions, I’ve found a stylist I will stick with! I used to jump around at cut my hair at different salons just to try and have someone do it exactly how I want. On every occasion I’ve come in, I show Kimmie a picture of how I want my hair & in the end… I am always leaving happy. Pricing is decent. Usually $ 35 just for a cut & when I cut + balayaged my hair it was around $ 160-​$ 200.
This place is located behind goodwill the second left and you’ll see the JV Salon sign on the right hand side. This salon is BY APPOINTMENT only, so go and look up @jvsalon on Instagram & find a stylist you like & contact them! I love this place & highly recommend Kimmie! :)

I was so excited to go here until I found out how little they care. Tried contacting the phone number on the Instagram and she kindly referred me to her barber. I wanted a certain undershave so that was all good with me I also said I didn’t want a bowl cut. The barber told me that he would need a different stylist to cut the top and then he could do the undershave but it would look like a bowlcut. I told him that this would fine with me and now it’s been almost a week with no reply. It shouldn’t be this difficult to get an appointment! I ended up going to Bobbi and Guy in pearlridge. They obviously don’t want my business and I will be letting my friends and family know this.

First; I checked out @JVSalon Instagram page and found a style I really liked. Checked out the stylist @HairByNoreen Instagram page; her contact info was in her bio. I was in touch via text with Noreen; she asked for a pic of my current hair, I gave her a history of my hair within the past year, and what I wanted to accomplish (balayage ombré). She gave me a quote of $ 160 (I was expecting a price range for this kind of service). Glad she was able to accommodate the date I wanted!
JV salon is located in Waimalu/​Aiea area near Fabric Mart in the teal building (first left; can’t miss it. You will see a JV sign). I easily found parking right in front of the shop (a couple stalls RSVP for JV salon customers).
Great atmosphere and friendly staff! This salon is simple, quaint, clean, and chic!
I was seated right on time of my appointment! We Spent a few minutes consulting w/​what I wanted to accomplish (balayage ombré). Noreen; is very friendly, knowledgable w/​hair, and she made me feel comfortable! Throughout the process she explained what she was doing next, she is very efficient, she checked up on me while my hair color was in its process, she offered me water, and just made sure I was doing okay! End result; I really love how my hair turned out! My hair color came out natural looking (what I was going for) and look/​feels so healthy! Noreen; gave me tips on how to style my hair (effortless beach waves). I am definitely using those tips!
Noreen service was wonderful from start to beginning. Definitely going back to her when I have another hair crises!

I have never been to my soon to do something to my hair, and I spent a long time poring over Unilocal reviews and recommendations. I finally decided to go with JV Salon.
At first, I was pretty annoyed with the booking process. I had called the business number and got told to find a stylist I like on Instagram (@JVSALON) and contact them individually for booking and prices. I had plans to lighten my hair but I had never done it professionally, and I had a strict time limit before leaving for vacation. After contacting the owner, Julie aka «JuJu», she said she could squeeze me in after a last minute cancellation.
The book in process includes texting (no calling) the person you would like to book with, sending them photos and letting them know a little bit about your hair color and desired outcome.
When it came to the day of my actual appointment, the GPS Location took me to the wrong location… Across the street by Cajun King. The actual Salon is behind GoodWill, the third left turn in a real building, that has a JV sign hanging close to the middle. Julie gave me excellent directions and accepted me promptly as I arrived.
Because I had never been to a salon to professionally treat my hair and had no knowledge of how to care for my hair, it was extremely damaged and waxy when she began working on it. However, she was very informative about the products I should use and how my hair would react to certain treatments. I was especially grateful that she was straight up with me saying that because I box dyed my hair, the bleaching process may come out uneven or blotchy. I had not known the dangers and damage done by box dye and she educated me on this as well.
Our first step was the bleaching, which she left in about half an hour after fouling different sections of my hair. She said I was lucky because my hair life’s easily and became much lighter even though she had used a low intensity bleach that would not make my already damages hair fall out. She then toned my hair and blended my roots. When she washed everything out she game me a great scalp massage, which was honestly my favorite part of the whole experience. It was so relaxing!
After all the color treatments to my hair, she blew it out and curled it. The balayage highlight style she applied to my hair looked so natural and made my extremely damaged hair look healthy and lively again :)
Her recommendations for products and styling really came in handy and her expertise was really impressive! Her rates may surpass anyone else at this salon but her talent surely does as well!
Thanks again JuJu, see you again soon!!!

Absolutely love it here!
Cute little Salon. Located behind Goodwill.
The atmosphere is great, very friendly people and exceptional service!
Noreen is a doll! I definitely recommend her.
Keep up the great work. You guys are awesome.

I came here today to get my hair done by Jordie. When I scheduled my appointment with her, she was very helpful and pleasant! They are located behind cutter ford in Aiea. Parking is limited since every business there has only certain stalls reserved for their customers. I walk in and told jordie a brief description of somewhat what I wanted. I really didn’t know what I wanted but had a little idea of what I thought I wanted. I left it in Jordies hands after that. She offered me something to drink and we got started! I usually don’t do anything to my hair so I was a little nervous. As we talked, she put me at ease. At the end, I was really happy with the results. Thank goodness I left it up to her and not what I thought I wanted lol. Good job jordie!

After a LONG year of neglecting my hair, I finally decided it was time to give it some TLC. Plus, I needed to get it done before my engagement photos. I waited til last minute to book an appt with Kimmie and found out that almost everyone else was booked up as well. Luckily, I got in touch with Jordan and she had an availability!
I also follow Jordan’s hair IG and been a fan of her work as well. Jordan texted me earlier in the day asking if I wanted to come in half an hr earlier than what was scheduled so I did. Cut my mane, and she began her magic. She trimmed all the dead ends off, giving my hair life. Then she started on my ombré, forty minutes later, my jaw dropped cause it was SO blonde! But then I realized, DUH, she still had to do my toner! lol. Another 20 mins later, it got a whole lot lighter, and it was time to wash the toner off. Whatever Jordan did while she was massaging my head was HEAVENLY. Like… you eyes roll back kind of feel good stuff! After drying my hair, I loved how the color came out when she straightened it. Loved it even more when she curled it. She has given my hair LIFE… forreal. She’s really friendly, and really tries her best to give you what you want. But for me, she gave me even more!

I make an easy appointment with Kimmie through her styleseat @cosmokream and she did my hair just two days ago. I couldn’t stop admiring her talented works after being disappointed by a hair salon before I went to see her. She is a super nice person and she wouldn’t mind explaining every details of what she is about to do with your hair and she is a very friendly person. I’m glad I went to see her for my balayage ombré which turns out to be nicer than I thought it would be and not to mention I love every compliments I got since I walked out of the salon. I highly recommended Kimmie and JV salon if you want to have a beautiful change for your hair. All the staffs were really nice too. I love their hospitality, they work really professional and most importantly they know what they are doing. So keep up the good work guys. I’ll sure be back!

On a visit home to HI, Jordy was able to fit me in and made my hair look vibrant again and charged me such a reasonable price! I’m scheduling appointments with her the next time I’m back in town! Thanks Jordy!

I made an appointment with Kimmie and it was super easy to schedule an appointment on her style seat website. When I went to my appt I had an idea of the cut I wanted and the color I wanted but I was still unsure. So she recommended just to clean up my hair by thinning it and with a little cut. Come to find out that my layers were a little crooked so she fixed it for me and made it straight. When I showed her a picture of the color I wanted she knew what she was doing and it came out just how I wanted it. I’ve been to 3 other stylists before her and I regret not seeing her sooner. I honestly thing she could be my hair stylist forever! Lol.
Oh and also everyone else in the salon were very friendly, no one kept to themselves which is good.

So got my hair done here within the past month and like, styling was A-​ok. I mean, I have had better but that’s probably because my stylist wasn’t experienced that much. Obvi was satisfied but the thing that upset me the most was customer service.
With — — , I was really disappointed with the lack of customer service. Unprofessional to say the least. Will never return thanks to her behavior.

My friend and Aunty recommended I try out this salon, and after seeing how nice their hair turned out, I figured I need to try this place.
I made an appointment online to see Kimmie (@cosmokream). It was SUPER EASY to book online, and all the prices are laid out for you. I love that she has a website set up because I feel like that’s easier than having to go back and forth with texting a stylist for her next availability.
Anyways, I came in on a Saturday. At the time there was only Julie and Jordan. They greeted me with a smile and I had a seat. Kimmie came in right on the dot when I scheduled my appointment, greeted me and got me situated at her chair. She is awesome. Super easy-​going and friendly, knowledgeable and understanding.
I came in to change my base color and get a balayage. I know pretty much NOTHING about hair, but Kimmie was really nice and attentive to explain things to me so that I knew what to expect and how to manage my hair.
I am so happy with the results of my hair and the price is affordable! I will definitely be back, thanks to Kimmie! The rest of the staff was friendly as well, and as I watched them work, you can tell the staff loves what they do and really care about making their clients happy! HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Also, just a reminder! If you’ve never been to the salon before, it’s located in that shopping area behind Goodwill. It’s in a teal building across of Jelly’s. Parking can be a pain since there are SO many businesses in the area.

I booked an appointment with Kimmie through her website, which was super easy! She was so nice and helped me to find the color that would be best for me because I really wasn’t sure. I had previously had my hair done at another salon and I just wasn’t happy with the service or cost. But the stylists here are really great and it’s super reasonable with pricing compared to other salons.

After numerous HORRIBLE hair cuts/​coloring experiences on the island, I stumbled upon Julie’s (the owner’s) instagram page. I was impressed by her work but still skeptical given all my experiences to date with salon’s on the island. After chatting with Julie via text (LOVE LOVE LOVE that they have this option to book appointments/​discuss all things hair), I immediately felt at ease. She requested pics of my current hair and pics of what I was thinking I wanted, and she was honest about what was/​was not feasible. She was also up front about cost (I wanted bayalage and my hair was almost black as a starting point).
On appointment day, I was super nervous, but quickly felt at ease when greeted by Jordan, and then Julie. I ended up cutting like 10 inches off my hair– that’s how comfortable I felt with Julie!!! The cut was exactly what I wanted as well as the color. She is AMAZING. I FINALLY found my permanent salon! HIGHLY recco Julie and team!

I’m wary of trying out new salons but I was very satisfied! I had Noreen and she is very sweet, patient and honest. She made sure she understood what I wanted especially since this is only my second time coloring my hair. She made sure that I was okay the whole time I was there –getting me water and such.
Most importantly, I love my hair! I got a haircut and a balayage ombré. My hair was so unmanageable before but I left with a cleaner, lighter hair and a new color. I was worried it might look too colored, cheap, and bright for my complexion but Noreen is very good at coloring hair to make it the most subtle natural, beautiful look that suits your complexion (: (subtle meaning it blends seamlessly to my natural hair). All my friends compliment on how expensive my hair looks.

My first time to JV Salon and I was in need of a big change and shed a whole of hair and greys! KIMMIE was so sweet and made me feel very at ease and happy to answer my questions along the way. I LOVE my new cut and color and have received many compliments about how much younger I look :) Thank you KIMMIE! I’ll be back soon

Julie IS the best. No doubt or question about it. She is super trustworthy and knows what she is doing!
She lets you know what she would have to do to obtain the color you would want (such as requiring more than one session) and lets you know ahead roughly the price if you ask. I used to go to my Filipino auntie who would be the kine hairstylist that tells you «no, don’t do that. I’ll just color it this…» Jule is NOT that kind of hairstylist! She listens and is good at what she does! She is the owner so that shows her credibility already!
I have been going to her for a while thanks to a friend who introduced me to her when she just opened her salon and it was just her and her sister but throughout that time she has colored my hair from red to blonde! She has dealt with my indecisiveness and «always wanting to change my hair style» attitude lol. She is also good with cut — it was my first time going really short with my hair but I wasn’t nervous because I knew she knew what she was doing. I showed her the picture of what I wanted and she did exactly it! She actually looks at the picture and not just look at it once kind — like she would look multiple times to get the look you want.
Make sure to make an appointment and don’t walk-​in because this gal gets booked! I haven’t gone to the other hairstylists yet but from observing their work, they seem just as great too! This salon is overall the best salon I have been to!

I’ve had my hair done here a few times and every time I left I was very much satisfied! Julie is awesome and her assistant Jordan was too! I felt bad for Jordan because she had to wash my hair three times due to what I wanted with my hair! lol. Julie also gave me some discount because it was my birthday!
And little did I know, as I was about to pay for my hair it was already taken cared of from my boyfriend, who previously contacted Julie that he’ll take care of it! :) So awesome, so ladies hint to your man and maybe he’ll do the same gesture! ;)
I also bought some Bed Head Shampoo & Conditioner and my hair is so much healthier after I use it!
Thank You JV SALON :)
