Modern Mane Studios

Modern Mane Studios is located at 532 Clements Bridge Rd. in Barrington, New Jersey. The studio describes itself as a new take on the salon industry and says it aims to offer quality, luxury-level service to men and women while continuing to serve clients in South Jersey.

The men's menu is built around clipper cuts, scissor cuts, designs and beard trims, plus bundles that combine them. Clipper cuts run from $30 to $45 and take about 30 minutes; they do not include a beard trim or design. Scissor cuts start at $35 and take 30 minutes to an hour. A design starts at $15 and a beard trim is $25, both taking 15 minutes. Two bundles pair a haircut with a beard trim: a buzz cut with all-over clippers and a beard trim for $40 in 40 minutes, and a scissor cut on top with clippers on the sides and a beard trim for $45 in 45 minutes. A men's color and haircut bundle starts at $60 and takes one hour and ten minutes. The booking listing describes the studio as known for men's haircuts and curly cuts.

Clients can book a complimentary consultation through the website. The studio says its stylists have invested in learning current techniques and that each stylist has a personal style. Listed categories include Men's Services, Men's Luxury Services, Children, Women's Services, Color Services, Formal Hair, Waxing and Facial Services, and Lash Extensions.

Color work has its own rules. First-time color clients must complete a color consultation and sign a color consultation form. Color or toner adjustments need to be requested within three days of the original appointment. The studio does not offer refunds.

Booking policies for services lasting an hour or longer include a credit card kept on file. Cancellations and reschedules need 24 hours' notice. Cancellations inside 24 hours or on the same day are charged 50% of the service cost, and no-shows without a cancellation are charged 75%. Clients are asked to reply to the confirmation text by 24 hours before the appointment. The studio allows a 15-minute grace period for lateness: clients running late should call ahead, and arrivals after 15 minutes may lose the appointment. Lateness is the only policy that applies to all appointments.

The booking listing notes that parking is available and the studio is near public transit. It also marks the business as pet-friendly, kid-friendly and wheelchair accessible.

The studio says each stylist brings a personal style, and it aims for quality and luxury service for men and women.
