How the reviews on this page were selected
We opened the Hanoi salon on Google Maps on 19 October 2026, sorted every review by newest first, and worked backwards through four weeks. Each review below passed four checks:
- Written by an international guest in English, German or Spanish, not translated from Vietnamese.
- Public profile. Reviewers who keep their Google profile private were left out, however positive, because you could not verify the quote.
- Quoted verbatim. Spelling, emoji and punctuation are the reviewer’s own. German and Spanish reviews appear in the original with our translation.
- Linked to the source, where the review sits with its date and any photos.
Not every review of the salon is five stars. Read the lower ratings and the salon’s replies as well; that is a better test of any Hanoi salon than the average alone.

Five reviews posted on 19 October 2026
All five appeared within ten hours of each other on the day we checked. Two were written in German and Spanish, so their cards carry a translation.

Reviews from earlier in October 2026
Posted one to two weeks before our check. Both mention the consultation, the part of a Hanoi salon visit that worries first time visitors most.
Layla Yousif
“Very efficient!! As a girl with curly hair, they were very helpful in getting me the correct treatment and advice :)”
bllxmx
“lovely experience, was unsure what to get initially so i had an amazing consultation with them and got exactly what i wanted”
Lily Downie
“I came to get my hair coloured and cut. They were super attentive about the colour and knew exactly what I wanted. The price was super good , I would definitely recommend going out of old quarter to come get your hair styled !”
Two customer-uploaded photos, shown with the review they belong to. Lily’s profile is set to private, so this card links to the review itself rather than to her profile.

A longer review: Jane Chen found the salon through Gemini
This review, edited in August 2026, describes a full visit, including the part that is not perfect.
Jane Chen
“Wonderful experience! I found this place on Gemini, chatted with them on Facebook messenger and set up an appointment. I did a hair recovery (previous Japanese straightening 9 months ago and my ends were very dry), a full 1 color hair dye, trim, and did straightening on my roots. Took about 5 hours total and they were great! They don’t speak any English but Google translator helped a lot. I would come here again if I was in Hanoi!”

What international guests mention most often
Reading the twenty reviews together, four themes repeat, and they are more useful than the star count.
The consultation and colour accuracy
Lily, Jane, bllxmx and Layla all describe being asked what they wanted and getting it. Colour is the service international guests review most often. If you are planning colour, read our guide to hair colour in Vietnam for foreigners first.
Price compared with the Old Quarter
Several reviewers mention price without being asked. The salon publishes its prices on the official price page, and our guide to visiting Nhat Tam from the Old Quarter covers the 5 km trip.
Language, honestly
Jane’s line is the accurate one: spoken English at the chair is limited. English is handled on Facebook Messenger before the visit and with translation apps during it, so arrive with your request already clear. Our list of Vietnamese phrases for a hair salon visit helps.
Wash, scalp massage and relaxation
Sonia’s review is about relaxation and value rather than a transformation. The wash and scalp massage included with most services is the part guests from Europe most often say they did not expect.
How to check these reviews yourself in two minutes
- Open the Hanoi salon on Google Maps, choose Reviews, then sort by Newest.
- Tap any reviewer’s name. A public profile shows whether they review many places or just this one.
- Compare with Facebook: as of October 2026 the main page carried 10,335 reviews with a 100% recommended rating, and the salon’s public channels carried more than 2.28 million followers across 15 accounts, led by 1.29 million on TikTok. Open them and check.
- Apply our seven trust checks for a Hanoi salon to every salon on your list, including this one.
How to book in English
Message the salon on Facebook Messenger with a photo of your current hair and the result you want, or use the online booking form, which sends your appointment straight into the salon’s schedule. The Hanoi branch is at 89 Nguyen Hy Quang, Dong Da. Colour takes several hours, as Jane notes, so book a morning slot.
Frequently asked questions
Is Nhat Tam the best reviewed hair salon in Hanoi for foreigners?
We do not claim that, because no salon can prove it. The public record on 19 October 2026 was a 4.9 rating from 1,492 Google reviews, with 20 reviews from international guests among the latest 221. Compare that with any other salon on your list using the same Newest sort.
Are these reviews real?
Every quote links to the public Google source where the review appears with its date. Reviews from private profiles were excluded so that nothing here has to be taken on trust.
Do the stylists speak English?
Spoken English at the chair is limited. Consultation in English happens on Messenger before you arrive, and translation apps are used during the visit.
Can I see more photos of real results?
Yes. Reviewers upload their own photos to Google, and our guide to real hairstyle results at Nhat Tam explains what a result photo can and cannot tell you.
Do I need to book ahead?
For a cut, a walk in is usually possible. For colour, perm or straightening, book ahead so the salon can plan the hours.
