J & M Hair Salon — Local services in New York

A classic Chinese hair salon experience: *Great value for price: I got color hair cut shampoo for 60$ with long hair. Simple dry hair cut for 9/15$. *Focus on their craft: The stylists seem a bit older with an older customer base, they are very experienced and friendly. The place itself is messy and the interior is worn, don't expect anything to post about. *Experienced with Asian hair: I have very voluminous straight Asian hair and 99% of hairstylists don't do well with that, I'm very happy with the result. I also saw customers of other ethnicities mainly white/hispanic walk out happily. *Communication: they speak Cantonese, some Mandarin and limited English, ideally show them a reference picture of what you want on the phone, for men they have a print out of hairstyles in the salon you can point at. Communication is minimal, don't expect to be asked about your day, I appreciate that, I go to get my hair done not to socialize, although if you speak Cantonese/Mandarin you can socialize with other customers while waiting. *Drop in: just walk in, tell them what you want and wait in line on a little bench until it's your turn, there's no appointment, even though there were 2-3 people before me I only waited 10 minutes or so.

As a person with unruly Asian hair, I really just care about what my hair looks like after. This place is a gem and I'm really happy places like this still exist in...

Cheapest and Greatest place for a simple haircut. Not only do they handle Chinese straight hair well, they could also manage a great haircut for curly hair. My boyfriend loves coming here and get the hair cut from the owner of this place. He has very curly hair which is very hard to deal with. Also he needs to look professional for his work. He has been coming here whenever he is in town since we discovered this place 1 year ago.

The owner has decades of experience of dealing with hairs but only charges $5 dollars for a hair cut! I sometimes get my hair treatment here for only $25! They work very hard to make sure you loves the outcome!

The only thing is that they only speak Chinese. You might need to bring a photo of the kind of hair cut you like to get. Or you can ask a Chinese speaking friend to go there with you and help you to describe in Chinese.

I don’t think you will turn to any other barber shop after the experience with Ting Ting Salon in...

Very cheap and affordable, but professional as well! Although the price is slowly going up for a basic haircut (currently at $7 as of Dec. 2020). It is still one of the cheapest you can find around the city.

The ladies can speak mandarin, Cantonese and even English to get the job done. Don't let the price fool you, you'll still be getting a professional haircut that comes out more than decent! Further proof can be seen through the time and attention to detail they spend on...
