Tommy J Morgan

Once again, I am thrilled with my hair! Tommy did a BEAUTIFUL job on my highlights and conditioning. Even my husband noticed and said it looked great — and that is really saying something! Tommy was fun to spend time with and professional. So worth the drive from Hawaii Kai!

I love this stylist!!! I came in not knowing what I really wanted and left feeling beautiful, and happy. He gave great recommendations and styled my hair beautifully. I’m back for highlights and they’re looking amazing!!! Highly recommend him for anyone looking for a great cut, style, and color.

Thank you Tommy for my beautiful haircut and highlights. I’ve received a lot of compliments even when I go to Costco people are admiring my new look. You are the greatest and I’m so glad I found you!

Tommy is fantastic! I had recently moved here from the mainland and was a little nervous about finding a new hair stylist — I have really thick hair and it’s hard to find someone who can cut it evenly and do a good job. So, not only did Tommy do a GREAT job, but he helped me get out of my comfort zone and try something a bit more modern than what I’m used to. He created beautiful layers and long bangs, and I went from having LONG hair to more modern, classy hair. This is one of the best haircuts I have ever had, and I will be back. Tommy does a great job with long hair, I don’t know what some of these other reviews are talking about. He is very pleasant and nice, and I thought the price was very reasonable for a great cut. No different than what I used to pay on the mainland. Thanks for a great haircut, Tommy!

Best Haircut and style I have ever had. After the first time I went to him I haven’t even thought about going anywhere else. He’s the best at what he does and he’s fun to be around. I completely recommend him to anyone looking for an amazing cut color and style!

So, I found tommy through a friend, who… Has fabulous hair! I am extremely picky about my hair! Mainly because I’m naturally curly and proud! Embracing the curl and the length of my hair has been a long time coming! The referral was very last minute and tommy squeezed me in based on my schedule! Halleler!
Firstly…can we just talk about the shampoo! Oh tommy! I got a deep condition and well I’m not gonna lie… A mini scalp massage! It was fabulous, typically I get someone pulling my hair out, scratching my scalp off or barely touching my head! Tommy knows his way around a cranium!
Nextly…the cut, tommy listened to everything I asked… EVERYTHING «i’m growing it out», «just a trim», «but maybe layers», «i need some shape», «like hers… but different». nodding his head and looking at my head, he made sure he understood and as a result gave me a fantastic cut… Which he blew out and then checked to ensure quality work:)
I even flat ironed it once or twice over Christmas and the layers were perfect!
Lastly… Tommy is so fun to talk to! He asked about me and shared about himself… That made me feel more comfortable, since we were going to be sharing something so intimate as a scalp massage. I was also basically putting my vanity in his hands! Luckily they were very capable hands!
Check him out ladies and gents! You will not be disappointed!

He was the first person to finally design and cut my hair exactly how I wanted it. I literally showed him a picture of Victoria Beckham with a short elevated/​angled bob haircut and he did his absolute best to make it work for hair. He took his time and was very professional. Love my hair!

Tommy was amazing! This is my second year living on Oahu and my hair doesn’t need a lot of attention. Tommy gave me the perfect cut and it was exactly what I had been looking for years. Not only did he give me a great cut, he also gave me a new style and showed me how to do it. I would recommend him to anyone living on Oahu! :)

I needed a change, of course my first thought was my hair! I decided to finally get highlights along with a hair cut! I’m very particular about my hair, but I trusted Tommy. He had talked me through my choices based on my features and I felt comfortable with his opinion. I love the highlights! They fit me well and it was just the change I was looking for. The haircut compliments the highlights and adds some sass! I love it all!

I would recommend Tommy to anyone. He did a fantastic job! My hair really needed him! He carefully inspected my hair and gave me some very good suggestions.
He did some highlights and lowlights and the result was awesome! It looks very natural and the haircut is easy to maintain.
I also liked that he was not rushing it and he made sure that he does everything perfect.
I can’t remember last time when I was so happy about my new hairstyle.
Thanks, Tommy!

Tommy does a great job every time I see him. He works with me to decide what’s best for my hair. On a previous visit, I wanted to go red. After showing Tommy a picture of what I wanted, he was able to translate my idea into something that would actually look good on me. I’m so happy I trusted him. Thanks to Valerie for recommending Tommy! A good stylist is hard to find.

I am very picky about my hair, even for a guy. Tommy listened and provided a great style at an excellent value! I even got my hair dyed for Halloween and it came out perfect! I highly recommend Tommy for anyone looking for a quality stylist!

I’ve lived on island for 5 years now and wish I could have found Tommy when I first arrived! After seeing a friend of mine with amazing hair I asked where she went. When she said Tommy in Hawaii Kai I thought it was too far away coming from the North Shore, but she raved about him. And then I read the reviews on here and decided I had to see him. He was very quick to respond when making an appointment and accommodating for my schedule.
When I arrived he was super friendly and asked me what I was thinking about doing. I don’t usually do too much to my hair so I wanted to hear what he thought would be best and I went with that. He spent so much time with me and never made me feel rushed or like he had somewhere else to be. He was even so kind to get me a coffee… now that is great service!
I have never been happier with highlights or a cut. Tommy did an amazing job and it looks like I’ll be driving from the North Shore now because he was so great!

First — to Tommy. THANK YOU! I know how important Unilocal is and if I could give you 6 stars I would. You are THAT good! I’ll be back!
Second — to all future clients of Tommy’s.
He is the best I’ve been to yet and that includes all my previous stylists in other states. This is saying a lot because I am not one to flippantly give high props. I am known to be a perfectionist thus expecting that from others. Before even meeting Tommy (btw, I contacted him because of his high marks on Unilocal) he was prompt in communicating with me several times about appointment, location and other questions I had.
I went in to Tommy with a different color idea in mind. I even showed him a photo. He listened and consulted accordingly by asking pertinent questions like, «Are you planning on wearing a lot of makeup everyday? If not, that color on you would wash you out». I decided to leave my color/​highlight in his hands. He did a fabulous job. My hair not only looks great, it feels great too. I’m not washed out and yet it looks better than the photo I showed him. Often times, with previous stylist, my hair would feel course and damaged afterward. I actually waited a week to give this Unilocal feedback to be sure I was pleased. My hair still feels and looks fab. I’m more pleased every day. Tommy is very personable, professional, extremely knowledgeable (especially about current styles and colors). He’s confident and should be!

Tommy is an absolute dream! My hair is thick, wavy and generally hard to manage. Tommy takes what you want into account as well as what works best for your hair and face shape. His pricing is second to none when you consider the quality of his work. I highly recommend him!!!

I had gotten a terrible hair cut after cutting my dreads out and Tommy made my hair even and manageable! He gave me great tips on how to work with my hair. He was a life saver!

Tommy has been cutting my hair for the past year now — I first went to him when he was working in Kapolei at the advice of a friend. I’d lived on the island almost two years when I «discovered» him and prior to that had drifted from stylist to stylist and from one bad/​indifferent haircut to another. Tommy is now officially the only person on the island I want touching my hair, and I live in Ewa — he’s moved his services to Hawaii Kai and the distance doesn’t matter one bit — I’ll follow him all over the island if I have to!
I’m not rich, therefore I can’t afford to pay $ 100+ per haircut and Oahu salons and their «stylists» have frustrated me repeatedly with their outrageous prices and frankly uninterested/​uninspired stylists (Bellaviva Kunia, I’m talking about you!). Tommy charges about $ 55 per haircut which is amazing and totally affordable if you’re like me and only have time to go every two or three months. (I tip him about $ 20 each visit, which isn’t mandatory but I believe in treating well the people who are entrusted with making you look good — also, he flat-​out deserves it.) Tommy is the first local stylist who has actually shown an interest in the end result and who truly desires that I walk out looking like a much better version of myself.
This may have something to do with the fact that he’s a genuinely talented hair stylist — he’s a perfectionist, too (not in a bad way — but expect a haircut to last at least 45 minutes if you’ve got mid/​long-​length hair — he will wash, cut, dry, cut, flat iron, and cut — he’s meticulous and it pays off). He is not one of those ridiculously chatty, overblown, ass-​kissing and flamboyant stylists. His value lies in the fact that he’s professionally friendly, methodical, and confident in his work. He takes the time to get to know your preferences, get to know your actual hair/​hair type, and then to make your preferences and hair type work together.
He’s occasionally quiet, although his demeanor is warm. He’ll chat with you on and off during the process if you’ve known him a while but he’s generally laser-​focused and sometimes brusque — What you’re getting, I believe, is the attention of a man who takes pride in his work and who isn’t going to waste time entertaining you with pointless blabber — he’s not your monkey, he’s there to make you look better than you did when he came in.
Finally, let me tell you that my last visit was on 9÷4÷2011, and I took my 14-​year old daughter in for her first highlights. Tommy expertly juggled both of us (both of whom have long, unruly hair) and was able to give me my usual stunning haircut (which has evolved beautifully, thanks to Tommy, from a bad Bellaviva haircut CORRECTION to something that flatters my face and works with my hair type) in under 3 hours. Tommy came in to the salon where he rents space on a Sunday (holiday weekend!!) to take care of us since he understands how hard it is for us to come up from Ewa during the week.
I don’t know a lot of stylists who will do this without charging you more than your next month’s rent… Which just goes to show: This man is the complete package — truly a find if you’re looking for someone to take care of your hair for absolutely reasonable prices (frankly, he should be charging more but I will never say that to his face since I am not moving up a tax bracket anytime soon) and with a confident, professional manner. Get your head to him NOW.

I went to Tommy after going to three other stylist. He is not only very nice, but he really listened to what I wanted to do with my hair. He did a great job with the color and cut. I got complements from family and friends immediately after! My daughter is the one who recommended him to me. And her hair looks great too. In addition to such great service he even went and got me a coffee next store at Starbucks while I was under the drier. What great service!!! I have finally found a talented stylist.

Walked in and Tommy fit me in right away! He was so wonderful to work with. He really listened to my requests and I loved my hair cut !!! He’s such a down to earth guy and really knows what he’s doing !! So excited that I finally found a great hair Stylist !!

I’ve had Tommy cut my hair for about a year now, and it always looks great. He knows I don’t have a lot of time for styling every day, but the way he does it, I can roll out of bed and still get compliments. Let me tell you, this is something new — I was not this lucky for the rest of my 28 years!
Last time I saw Tommy, I had him do highlights — my first highlights ever. I was a bit nervous because I’ve never done any kind of color before. They looked fantastic and I am in love!
I’m a little sad that I have to drive to Hawaii Kai vs. Kapolei now, but you guys on the Windward side are getting a treasure! And I will still make the trek to see Tommy, my fave hairstylist ever.
