“I cannot recommend Lock & Shade highly enough! From start to finish, their team was an absolute dream to work with. As a bride, finding the right hair and makeup artist was crucial for me. So I asked my photographer for recommendations and she mentioned Lock & Shade, I am so thrilled to say that they exceeded all my expectations.
Blaise, the Salon + Bridal Coordinator, was incredibly responsive from the very beginning. Their attention to detail and commitment to ensuring I was happy with every aspect was truly impressive.
The trial session was a fantastic experience. The artists (Deanna and Gina) were patient, listened to all my feedback, and made adjustments until I was completely satisfied. They provided expert advice on what would work best for my wedding vision while still making sure I felt like myself.
On the big day, the team arrived on time and with such a calming presence that it immediately put me and anyone else getting hair and makeup at ease. They worked efficiently without ever making me or anyone else feel rushed. The hair and makeup were flawless. My look lasted all day and night, through tears, laughter, and dancing!
The team at Lock & Shade made me feel like the most beautiful version of myself. Their skill, professionalism, and warm personalities made my wedding day even more special. If you’re looking for hair and makeup artists who truly care about making you feel amazing, look no further. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
Thank you, Lock & Shade, for making my bridal beauty dreams come true!“
“Please do not hesitate!!!
I am so grateful Kay was recommended to me!!
She is professional, more than qualified, and enjoys her craft.
Kay has an amazing young approach for which I truly benefited from. I am 60 years old and I wish I didn’t wait so long!!“
“I’ve been coming to this salon for a while and as soon as you walk into the salon everyone is so welcoming! Shakira has been doing my hair for a while and she understands it so well because my hair can be complicated at times. I always leave the salon feeling gorgeous. I am thankful for all the staff and their hard work! ❤️“
“Kiersten is the best!! She did such a wonderful job on my color and cut! Love the atmosphere of this salon and can’t wait to go back!“
“Beautiful salon tucked away right on Main Street. Fabulous coffee bar and snacks, phone chargers, and a quiet peaceful vibe. Fabulous and accommodating stylists who added us onto their busy day at the last minute- two fabulous haircuts and blowouts, two happy clients!!“
“Oh, I love this place, so pretty and calm, my blood pressure drops when I walk in. Fantastic haircut today by Eileen. She's lovely and funny and really talented, a great listener about what I wanted to do. Took lots of time, I've never felt rushed. I have a feeling if I walked in there one day and wanted bangs or something dumb, she'd be able to talk me out of it, calmly. And she'd be right. Also, great value for the money, I think.“
“Lea Deloy has been my personal stylist for over twenty years. Not only does she expertly cut and style short hair like the artist that she is, but she frequently offers recommendations to me with regard to new styles that suit my hair type, face shape and age. Her color is, in my opinion, the best at the Jersey Shore. That aside, I am in the city frequently and am ALWAYS asked who colors, cuts and styles my hair; people are shocked when I mention that I have a stylist I have followed on NJ for twenty years. This shop is the gem in some serious rough as far as NJ salons go…“
“Amber is a hair cutting ARTIST & EXPERT. She transforms me on every visit! She is so VERY TALENTED!!“

“Keri Lynn is a Great and knowledgeable artist with color! She will work with you to find what you are looking for and then delivers!“
“I'm mortified I haven't responded sooner! Michele is a master, a true artist. Her knowledge, attention to detail and her committment to her clients is unsurpassed. Just put your trust in her and you will be estatic. We traveled 500 miles and would gladly do it again for the privledge of having Michele work her magic. She only got 5 stars because I couldn't give her 10.Services: Hair coloring“
“I FINALLY found a full service salon that it NYC legit in my neck of the woods. My hair has never looked better! Healthy! Shiny! The color is rich and a little cutting edge without looking juvenile. They use the best products on the market. I trust my stylist. She has NEVER let me down in the four years I've been going.“
“So happy to be back in this salon after quarantine, feeling so safe and taken care of by all of the staff here. Color by Renee couldn't have been more amazing and the needed cut by Michael with a perfect blow out made my day.“
“I'm So happy with my hair!! Thank you Nicole for the best keratin treatment!! I went from frizzy to smooth!! This will be my new place! Thank you ?“
“Liz and her team were fabulous. They did hair and make-up for nine people at my wedding! Every one looked amazing. I have had both my hair and make-up done for weddings before, but L studio knocked it out of the park. I would hire Liz and her team over and over again. Brides if you are looking for a team that will make everyone in your wedding look beautiful and no one will be crying sad tears because they hate their hair or make-up hire L Studio. There are not enough words to express just how wonderful they are. PS hair and make-up lasted all night! Thank you again to Liz and her team.“
“I love my permanent eye liner I had gotten from Brianna!! During my second visit to complete everything, she was training a nice women while doing my eye liner and just hearing her knowledge I knew that there was nobody better I could've chosen! I can't be any happier with how everything came out. With the results and her kind and amazing attitude towards everything I wouldn't suggest any other place to go to!! Thank you for a great experience!!!!“

“I called Lauryn because my skincare obsessed daughter was turning 9 and for her birthday I wanted to get her an age appropriate facial with a tutorial about how she should properly take care of her skin, and which products to use and which to avoid. The only knowledge my daughter had was what her friends have told her that they learned from TikTok.Lauryn was amazing from beginning to end. She planned a wonderful experience for my daughter, complete with balloons which decorated the studio for her birthday. She gave my daughter a wonderful facial and hand massage that did nothing to her delicate, sensitive skin other than make it glow. She also gave her lots of tips and tricks that she could use to care for her skin going forward.My daughter loved it so much and afterward she told me that she thought she needed a facial every month. I told her to start saving ?. Thank you Lauryn for helping me give my daughter the best birthday surprise.“
