Satisfied Customer of 5 years 
I have been a client of the Howard Jones Salon for five years. The staff is talented and friendly. I love to change-up my hair, and have felt complete confidence putting myself in the hand of my stylist and letting them work their magic. It is not the least expensive shop in town, but tthe end product is more than worth it.

Very Happy :) 
I stumbled on to this Salon and my hairdresser Laurie because I lived across the street. It's not the cheapest, but I have consistently received some of the best haircuts of my entire life there, and I have very long, difficult hair. I would highly recommend this place to anyone, and I continue to drive up there although I now live over an hour South.
I'm not giving 5-stars, however, because I do sometimes have to wait. The laid back atmosphere is great except when you're in a hurry!!

GO SEE JEN AT HOWARD JONES! 
This stylist is an absolute GENIUS when it comes to styling and coloring. She is especially great when you have an open mind and let her "work her magic". I got an awesome mens cut with a new shape! This girl is very friendly and not to mention gorgeous as well. Prices are good as well, and you definitely get what you pay for when you go to JEN!

Not Happy With My Hair 
Yes the salon is in a good location, but I was not happy with my hair. I used the salon coupon and was booked an appointment with a new young stylist from the LA area. She did not listen to what I really wanted and the color came out grey! When I wanted my money back I was threatened by the owner that he was going to call the cops! So, if you see a coupon for the Howard Jones Salon do not be tempted and go somewhere else.

Salon does not take credit cards! 
My stylist did a great job with the hair cut I wanted. She was on time but I noticed many people waiting in the small reception area . Make sure you have cash; which is hard these days; because they do not take credit cards!

Nice salon and stylists, near my home, easy to get into 
I had been going to the same stylist for the last six years or so and in was getting tired of driving the distance to see her since I've moved a few times. Although I liked her it just wasn't practical, so I started searching for stylists. Howard Jones is near my home, and I called and they recommended a stylist for me. I immediately loved the cut and she did a great job on the color. My next visit I wanted something a little different and what came out wasn't exactly what I wanted. I lived with it for a week and called her back and she redid the color for free, an hour and a half process. That's service. Very clean and nice salon. A bit pricey for me but I'd say still middle of the road, its not on the high end. I'd definitely recommend it, and did to a friend of mine who is also now a repeat customer... I also never have to book weeks and weeks out, they usually get me in on within a few days if I want.
PROS: Nearby, professional staff, good prices, great customer service
CONS: A little pricey but worth it. Nothing worse than a ho-hum or bad hair-do

Great Neighborhood Salon 
I have been bouncing around from one salon to the next and I have not been satisfied by any. The big salons don't seem to listen, they do nice work, but I don't feel like me when I leave. The smaller ones like Sams and the Cuttery make me feel like I didn't get a good cut and I couldn't get color done.
This last week I went to Howard Jones Salon off of Golden Lantern and finally! I got people who knew what they were doing and the whole place felt really nice.
As I got my color done, I came to find that not only had most of the stylists been there for a while, but the clients had been coming there for just as long! It was a real home-y feel.
The place was clean, very nicely kept, and I didn't feel like it was so uptight I couldn't get a fun cut, but it wasn't so funky that I felt out of place either.
Okay, so I didn't pay a rock bottom price, but I also didn't have to turn over my whole pay check either and I felt like me for the first time in a long time. My color is awesome and the cut was just right.
I'll be back there definitely!
PROS: All of the stylists could do both cut and color, some offered special srvcs
CONS:

Great service, Great hair.
I have been going to Howard Jones Salon for about 3 years now, and I have never had anything less than amazing service. If my regular stylist is out of town or unavailable, there is always someone available to do my hair and make me just as happy. All the stylists are truly talented and the salon is very friendly, and family oriented salon. I highly recommend this salon.

OVERALL GREAT EXPERIENCE!
I went on this website to check the reviews, and although there were some negatives, I wanted to simply try Howard Jones Salon myself. I am an EXTREMELY picky client; whether it be about the atmosphere, the service, and the overall outcome of my hair. I watched all the stylists as I was getting my hair done, and all of their clients looked great as they left and seemed to be very happy.
When my cut and color was finished, I was completely satisfied and very happy with the turnout. The salon is a relaxing and creative setting that would make anyone feel comfortable. Everyone there is definitely skilled and very friendly.
Pros: great parking, great service

Avoid At All Times
I made my appointment because almost everyone who has reviewed this place just loved it, i.e Jen and Danielle. I was on time but my stylist was very late for my morning appointment. She then blamed the receptionist for not booking her correctly. It took her forever to mix my color, or I guess thats what she was doing in the back room. My color turned out ok, not exactly what I was thinking. My cut was ok, not worth the wait or the high price of services. I would not drive hours to come to this market shopping center salon. I would not fly over seas to come to this salon. I would not say these stylist were hair gurus, I think my stylist did an ok job for a beginner. I would just avoid this salon.
Pros: Close to many homes
Cons: Too much money for a market shopping center salon!

LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE
I recently moved and i still make the 45 minute drive to go and see Danielle. Ever since I have been seeing her for my hair I have never gotten more complements.
She does my colour so amazing. And the best part is I get my highlights done half as often as my friends but you would never know because she does that great of a job.
All the people that work there are really nice and I really do love Danielle is a sweet heart with some amazong talent. Plus I go in between cuts and she trims my bangs up on the house!
I have recomended many of my friends and i recomend all of you to give the salon a shot I have never left more then thrilled.

Jen is a hair guru!!!!
So, I don't know about all of you out there, but I've longed for a hairstylist who i can trust with my hair, and be able to just say "work your magic" to. It's taken me a long time, but I found her!
Jen, at Howard Jones Salon was able to educate me on my hair and create a "look" that was best suited for me, taking my style, my face shape, and hair texture all into perspective! She is a Beverly Hills trained artist with hair, and really knows her stuff!!
The prices are reasonable, and worth every penny, and the salon is beautiful, and has great service!
I strongly recommend you go to Jen at Howard Jones Salon and say: "Work your magic!!"
Pros: convenient parking, great service
