If you're looking for a place for Asian men's haircuts, this is the spot. Being from Los Angeles, I tried different barbers around Manhattan and Fort Lee area after moving here and couldn't find anyone that could do it like the Los Angeles folks (at ssooniestyle, shout out to them and Ray) until I came here. Yusa was the one to cut my hair and I plan to go to him only for my hair needs moving forward. I actually came in with many things I wanted to fix in my hair. Not only did Yusa patiently listen to all of my requests, he even spent extra time to examine my hair type and head shape and explained his thought process as he cut my hair. By the end of the haircut, not only did I receive an excellent haircut for a very fair price, but Yusa also gave me a ton of advice regarding how I should maintain and style my hair. Cherry on top, he's also super friendly, interesting and a great conversationalist. In terms of service, scheduling an appointment by phone is simple and quick, but the stylists here are understandably busy and have packed schedules. I would suggest scheduling ahead of time and mentally preparing to be placed on a wait list. Otherwise, finding the salon was easy and the interior is clean and pleasant to be in. Overall, I would highly recommend this spot, especially if you're looking to get a trendy and modern Asian male hairstyle for a fair price compared to places in Manhattan.

I’ve been coming here since I was high school/ college and I won’t go anywhere else. The staff is so friendly and welcoming. Sometimes they have to wait for a month because that’s how great they are. The highly recommend it! Always a great experience

Best place for a hair cut in northern NJ in my opinion. But impossible to get booked unless you plan months in advance.

Eriko is my go-to. She’s experienced, talented and great to talk with. Get a cut if you haven’t yet.

I drove about 3 hours (back and forth) to this place and spent $100 ($85 plus tips) just on a haircut, all I got was an average-Joe bob style. Honestly I am a little disappointed, I drove all the way here (also waited 3 months for this appointment and was willing to splurge to get the master level) to get a chic and stylish short hair but somehow I ended up with a boring and typical bob, which I could've gotten from a local hair salon for much less than $100.

Was a regular client at Akane when I was in college and when I moved back to NJ from Brooklyn a decade later, I gladly returned. They are just the best - from the quality of their products, the skills of their stylists, and the service you get when you go. Yuki has done such an incredible job with correcting my hair color and guiding my hair on this bleach journey to keep my hair as healthy as possible. The color is also remarkable and does not get brassy. And her cuts are 10/10. Kosuke is also fantastic but getting an appt with him can be near impossible. As long as you get your appts in advanced, you will not regret Akane.

Yuki gave me the best haircut I have ever gotten in my whole life. She takes her time and really listens to understand what I need and also gives great life advice while she is working. I will never go to any other hair stylist again because no one else can compare. Like the others have said here she is well worth waiting for!
