Nancy, a sweet Vietnamese lady, washed, conditioned, and cut my hair and even applied the flat iron to my hair. I guess she didn't like my wavy hair. The scalp massage was on the rough side, but it comes with ear lobe massage. My hair just needs an occasional cut to keep it from getting too bushy, and Nancy gave me a salon treatment. Nancy seems competent and for that I'd recommend her.

Sharing my mom and my experience here for reference.Quick backgrounds:1. I had around 1 minute quick haircut + shampoo + half head perm (long hair) which costs $160 ( initial she say $70 and noticed i have thicker hair then increased to $160)2. My mom also had quick haircut, shampoo, plus full head perm with styling(to be honest it was more like a fixing mistakes session rather then styling) , which costs $140We spent total around $330 with tips. The price was okay but the service was disturbingEspecially my mom was very upset during the session and not happy with the results. I tried to calm her down and understanding the frustration from both sides.I have noticed there are multiple burns on mom’s hair, the Lady who doing our hair accidentally cut my mom’s front hair too short and make it too curly it was very awkward to look at. The lady likes to do things on her own way doesn’t want to listen nor understand the customer’s requests. When my mom first showed disappointment, i immediately told the lady that at this moment the only thing bothers my mom was the front hair, the back hair was okay she doesn’t need to touch it at all. However she won’t listen and ignored our requests, keep doing useless work for my mom’s back hairs. I think maybe it was because she doesn’t know how to fix the front hair so she was trying to buy herself sometime to think of a solution.I can feel my mom’s frustration because of the lady seems not professional at her work, she was very rushing, showed careless and impatient attitude during the session even though we were the only customers in the store. She also accidentally pulled lots of our hairs during the session. Also a little bit rude to my mom, she told my mom that she is not gonna fix it because it was not her business which technically speaking it was her mistake.Overall I was disappointed and pay the money without even drying my hair, because I just want to get out of there as soon as possible.Attached some photos of my hair for your reference, you can see how “incredible” the stylist is.

First of all the good points - I'm really thankful that I I was able to make a last minute appointment to touch up my roots, as I couldn't get an appointment at my regular Japanese salon. I made an appointment online on their website and they were quick to respond. Parking was validated at the attached parking lot at the hotel, so that was really convenient for Waikiki. They also offer a discount for Kamaaina, which is always appreciated.The not so good points - The hair salon is located in a pretty sketch hotel in Waikiki (complete with hostess bar), not exactly a classy place. To call it a Japanese spa salon seems pretty misleading. It definitely felt more like the Chinatown special. If you've ever been to a proper Japanese salon, you'd know that this was quite a stretch.Further, I had made an appointment specifically for a root touch up and confirmed with the stylist that that is all I wanted. After completion she charged me for a single process hair color. She agreed to charge me only for the root touch up after all, but I did find it upsetting that she did something that I did not ask for. My biggest complaint though is that the hairbrushes are not cleaned. The stylist was about to use a dirty brush completely tangled up with hair, from who knows how many people prior, before I stopped her. They didn't have any clean brushes there so she just had to dry my hair without using any brushes.

Big shoutout to Nancy for killing this peekaboo look! I brought a couple reference photos for different shades of purple, and to be honest I was a little worried that the purple wouldn't stand out from my black hair. However, Nancy told me that the shade I wanted was achievable! When she showed me my hair after washing and drying, I was amazed to see how vibrant it was. The salon gets filled up fast so I would recommend setting up an appointment. Studio 4TUNE does validated parking too. They also offer a kama'aina discount!Also, Nancy was very kind to wait for me as my appointment was right after my class. I appreciate how thorough she was with separating my hair during the bleaching and dyeing stages, and with styling my hair at the end.

Absolutely LOVED our treatment we booked here! I had heard about Japanese head spa treatments and there are so few salons where we live that actually have them available, so finding Hair Studio 4Tune while on vacation was perfect! The salon is located underneath the hotel itself so follow the steps leading downstairs right after the convenience store to find it. It is a small salon, and all run by Nancy herself so appointments are highly suggested, but she does take walk-ins if there aren't any customers. We came in and I sat down first for the treatment and it basically consists of two shampoo rinses (with a light scalp massage) followed by a deep conditioning treatment in which she really gives you an amazing scalp massage along with a few tools and a warm neck compress while you drift off to sleep. Both my husband and I received the treatment and we agreed that it was amazing and wished we lived closer to get these on a weekly basis! If you are in the area or are curious about head spas, I highly encourage you to visit Nancy and let her work some magic on you!

Nancy is the BEST HAIRDRESSER on the island! She transformed my dull lifeless hair into shiny miracle! I love my copper highlights and most of all, Nancy is very attentive to every concern or question I had when I first walked in. Go see Nancy ASAP!

I had the best pampering ever today taken care of by Nancy. She was extremely helpful when I contacted her last week for a much needed hair sesh: cut + color and got much more. She listened to what I wanted and we settled on doing this caramel highlights for my hair. She is an extraordinaire as she did awesome gel manicure and my eyebrow waxing all on this sitting while my hair needed to set. She made awesome recommendations of things I can do to continue with my amazing hair. I wish I lived here so that she could take of my beauty needs. I entered drab and felt fab once I left. Thank you!

I honestly wish I had a better before picture but the first is as good as it gets. My hair was roughhhh, grown out from its last balayage 5 months ago (which wasn't done very well either) & just all around needed some TLC. The stylist Nancy was awesome! She listened to what I wanted & executed it flawlessly. I'm so happy I found this hidden gem on here. There wasn't much to go off of but a couple of photos but I took a chance & boy, it did not disappoint. I guess I've found my hairstylist going forward & I'm so excited about it! Highly recommend

What a hidden gem! I was looking for a Japanese hair salon especially because I absolutely love head spa services. I got extremely lucky when I called and was able to get an appt that evening. The owner was so nice and welcoming. First of all, I've had long hair for 2 years and was scared to make the change. Nancy is amazing!! I showed her a few pics of what I wanted and told her that I want to go shorter but not too drastic! She did not disappoint! We cut off about 3 inches and my hair feels amazing. So healthy and exactly how I wanted it cut. The head spa was even more amazing!!! I felt so relaxed that I almost fell asleep!! And for kamaaina, the services were 15% off. Can't beat that! She also asked if I wanted to do eyebrow waxing before my head spa! I needed it so it was perfect timing. I really enjoyed my first experience at this salon :)

I had a lovely experience! Ruby did a great job with my haircut and she was so attentive to detail - she really wanted to make sure it was perfect. Throughout the haircut she always checked in with me to make sure I liked it and I was comfortable, and she was just so sweet. I also got a standard manicure after my haircut and it was wonderful! Very nice service, they do their best and take their time with your hail and nails. Not a rushed service at all, and very fairly priced. 10/10 definitely recommend!Services: Haircut

I have lots of grey hair especially around my forehead and wanted to do something before attending my friends’ wedding next week. It was my first visit last Saturday and I am very satisfied with the service. Ruby, the hair stylist, did a quick consultation and suggested I add some lighter colors (highlights) so that my grey hair blends in naturally. She’s very friendly and her service was thorough. She kept checking to make sure everything is ok. Also I like the way she shampoos my hair. Like a massage! I enjoyed the entire service and her customer service. Very professional.The salon is not too big and cozy, so I feel safer especially during the pandemic. Also you can do the nail too if you want to.My hair looks lighter, and I’m looking forward to coming back!Services: Hair coloring
