The new location and design of J Salon - in the IBM Building at 1240 Ala Moana Blvd. - is modern, stylish and fresh, complementing the stylists and their creative, up-to-date talents.

Charcoal-toned walls, black ceilings, high-gloss black custom cabinetry and chrome fixtures create a fashion-forward interior that houses top of the line hair products from Shu Uemura and Keratase.

The new space also features a Color Bar, where clients can watch as their color is formulated and mixed. And, once their color has been applied, clients relax comfortably in a serene atmosphere.
