Hands down BEST salon in NJ! Beautiful, flawless experience from the second you walk in to the second you walk out; the customer service and inviting, vibrant environment that is created by the incredible Renaissance team makes this salon one of a kind. I've been going to Renaissance since day 1, and have never once been disappointed. The owner, Jen, has done my hair for over 15 years, her work is beyond talented! She's even a certified instructor and travels teaching other salons & stylists in numerous states (that's how good she is- everyone wants time with her). Jen goes above and beyond to ensure all customers are in love with their service, experience, and results. Amanda D assists Jen with my hand-tied extensions, and is so sweet and diligent. Amanda B gives the best scalp massage and wash, you'll want to bring her home with you. I recently tried a HydraFacial for the 1st time ever (new patented technology special facial machine) with Tara, and WOW, I'm in awe of the instantaneous results. I've gotten all kinds of facials, and this will now be my forever go-to. Tara's energy is everything and her knowledge and expertise of all facials/skincare/makeup is amazing. Seriously the best facial & face massage I've gotten. Rebecca did my mom's lash extensions for her birthday this month and they were beautiful. My entire family goes to Renaissance because it's truly the best. Every single member of the team is kind, welcoming, and talented. The endless services they offer are always tailored to everyone for a customized experience and guaranteed satisfaction. From haircuts, color, blowouts, extensions, braids, prom/wedding hair and makeup, facials...Any event or occasion, Renaissance should be your go-to.
More about the owner, Jen: She is also a huge supporter of multiple charitable and non-profit organizations, including Hillsborough's Steps Together, which she sits on the board for. She constantly gives back to the surrounding community, further showing her kind heart and values. Supporting a small business in town is always important, but supporting a small business who continuously gives so much back to others is even better. If you're looking for a salon for any of your beauty needs, Renaissance will exceed your...
Read moreI live in Florida and ran into quite a problem when my hair extensions didn't arrive in time for my wedding in NJ. At first I was nervous to try my "mom's salon".. but in the 3 weeks I spent in Hillsborough before my wedding. Jen, Amanda, Sylvia, Tara and the rest of the Renaissance team single handedly saved my wedding. Anything and everything I needed, they were able to do for me... with style and grace.
I am very particular with my hand tied extensions... Jen knocked it out of the park... like a home run immediately followed up by a grand slam She was amazing, welcomed me with open arms. did my extensions perfectly and now I think i need to fly back to jersey every 8 weeks for my maintenance.. I am not kidding. Amanda also helped (I felt like a celebrity with 2 people working on my hair to save time) and she was so sweet, detailed and amazing at her craft.
They also offer skincare and waxing, so of course I had to take advantage of that too. I got a hydrafacial from Sylvia... it was amazing and just want my skin needed before my wedding. I was glowing as soon as I left the chair. Tara waxed my brows perfectly. Again.. I may need to fly back just for that.
Jen also brought a team from the salon onsite to do my mom, bridesmaids and my hair on my wedding day. They were efficient, professional and we all had so much fun getting ready. The planning was super easy, we were all SO happy with our hair and it stayed all night. I have never felt more beautiful. With all the things that went wrong and stressed me out for our wedding, this was one of the things that went seamlessly, I was extremely impressed.
I can't say enough good things about Jen and her team at Renaissance Hair Salon. If you are looking for a salon to blow you...
Read moreMy experience there was TERRIBLE!! There were very nice girls there who did their job well, but the woman who worked with me was rude with my hair, she was all the time saying how badly was my hair and always complained about the extra work that my long hair was giving her. Every word she said she referred to my long hair always complaining. She work with hairs... Why does she complain about long hair? ... She also complained that I had dirty hair (I thought this would make her work better with my hair) but she made me feel really bad about it. She pulled my hair when she put the highlights on and burned my head several times with the dryer. She left me in very uncomfortable positions and didn't worry about this. I saw that all the other ladies were having some refresh, she never asked me if I needed anything, I had to please ask for water when I had already been there for 2 hours. When she was working with my hair she sometimes hit me with her work tray, she never said sorry. I told her that the highlights would never have to start from the root.. she made all the highlights from my root (as you can see in the picture attached) She had to correct and didn't get what I asked for. I think its the first review I write in my life but I couldn't let this be shared with the people. Im sure not all the people who work there are like here. I don't usually be able to invest my time in going to the hair salon. It cost me to make the decision and what was going to be a quiet and peaceful moment for me became a NIGHTMARE. Im not going to waste time coming back to this place, of course neither my friends and family. I will have to fix my hair after having spent almost $400 on a very...
