Studio J Salon

Really happy with my experience here, I live in MN but was visiting and stopped in last year for a cut. I was thrilled with how my stylist managed to put layers in my heavy hair so evenly. That cut looked fresh longer than any I ever had. Stopped in again today on another visit and was lucky enough to get the same person, she is fantastic and so kind. I got a cut and color this time, I like how efficient and thorough Parvaneh is, all the time making you feel very comfy. Thanks Studio J!
If you expect cold and professional you might not enjoy being treated like family here.

This is a friendly hometown salon run by people who truly care. I have gone there for years. Jesse always gives me a great cut at a reasonable cost!

I just moved to Texas, and decided to go to this salon since it was close to my house. I was clearly the last appointment for the day. I could tell by the woman, Andrea, and her apparent body language as she was ready to quickly do the job to leave for the day. Things started out nicely with a shampoo, and condition. Then when we moved on to the chair, the barber cape that was placed on me smelled like moldy cheese, and feet. It was vinyl, and clearly had not been properly dried after washing it because of the god awful smell. After the cut, she rinsed my hair again. Then she asked me what product I generally use. I have very thick hair so I use got to be glued. She then proceeded to take some hair cream of some type out of what appeared to be a personal bag with a very professional looking picture of Bob Marley on it to use in my barely towel dried hair to do in up in a faux hawk. First off wet hair isn’t going to stay up with some cream. Anyone in this profession working at a salon should know that applying a product to practically dripping hair isn’t going to hold. After the fact she didn’t even bother to show me in the mirror what my hair looked like front or back. The whole process took 15 minutes, and when I got home to re-​do the hot mess she had done I noticed the hair was slightly longer in the front on the sides where she had taken a #2 to it. Never going here again. I had to change my shirt because mine smelled like shit from the nasty barber cape.

So happy I found this salon! It’s important to me that I feel comfortable and relaxed when I get my haircut, and Studio J is the perfect place. Adrea is my stylist, and I think she is fabulous! Not just an amazing stylist, but a wonderful person who makes you feel like a friend. In fact, all of the people who work in this salon are welcoming, friendly, and professional. Very happy with the service I’ve received here.

Was not happy with my experience here. Staff were unprofessional, loud, and yelling back and forth at each other. Definitely not a place where one would want to come relax at a day at the spa. Additionally, the building there is bankrupt so they might be closing shop here soon.

Family owned and operated — and that is just what they make you feel like — family. I love the reddish-​golden-​brown color that Jesse came up with for my hair; both women and men compliment my hair color and cut that I received from Jesse — he is a like a master colorist. His wife, Andrea, works there and does equally fabulous work also. As a matter of fact, I have not seen one bad head of hair walk out of that salon from any of the other hair professionals that work there. It is a little salon with a big personality offering mani-​pedis, massages and facials at unbelievably reasonable prices for great services. There is always plenty of parking (a must for me) in the strip center just east of Central Freeway in Allen.
