Getting here
Directions & parking
Canaan Beauty Salon is at 390 Communipaw Avenue, Jersey City, NJ 07304, in Bergen-Lafayette. Communipaw Avenue runs east–west through this part of the city, so it's a direct trip from Greenville, the West Side and McGinley Square, and only a few minutes from Journal Square and the Liberty State Park side of town. Searching "Canaan Beauty salon" in your map app takes you right to the door.
Parking: look for street parking on Communipaw Avenue and the surrounding side streets, and check the posted signs for street-cleaning days and time limits before you leave the car. Saturday mornings can be busy on the block, so give yourself a few extra minutes to find a spot and arrive relaxed.
First time visiting? Plan to arrive five or ten minutes before your appointment. It gives you time to park, settle in and talk with your stylist about what you'd like without feeling hurried. If you're running late, call the salon so we can adjust the schedule.
By bus: Communipaw Avenue is a local bus corridor, which makes the salon easy to reach without a car from many parts of Jersey City. Many clients simply walk over from the surrounding blocks of Bergen-Lafayette, too.
Your visit
What to expect
A friendly welcome
Let us know your name and appointment time when you arrive. Longtime clients remember being offered a beverage while they settled in and got comfortable before their service began.
A short consultation
Your stylist will ask what you'd like and confirm the service and price before starting. Bring photos if you have a look in mind, and mention any recent color or treatments.
On-time care
Clients say they were taken care of on time. Arriving a few minutes early helps keep the whole day running smoothly.
Time to relax
Wash and sets, color and longer styles take a little while. Plan your day so you can sit back and enjoy the visit instead of watching the clock.
Kids are welcome
Bringing a child? Mention it when you book so we can plan the time and have everything ready for a smooth visit.
Easy payment
Credit cards, debit cards and tap-to-pay from your phone are all accepted at the end of your visit, so checkout takes just a moment and you can be on your way.
Quick answers
Before you call
Can I walk in?
Appointments are recommended because the salon can be busy depending on the time. Call ahead and we'll tell you whether there's room for you today.
Are you open on Sundays?
No. We're open Monday to Friday from 8:30 AM to 7 PM and Saturday from 7:30 AM to 7 PM, and closed on Sunday.
Is there a restroom?
Yes, there's a restroom on site for clients, so longer appointments like color or a roller set are comfortable for everyone, including children.
Can I book online?
Yes. Our Google listing has a booking option, or you can simply call (201) 432-2812.
How long will my appointment take?
It depends on the service and your hair. A wash and blow-dry is quicker than a roller set or color. Tell us what you'd like when you book and we'll let you know how much time to plan for.
Can I bring my child?
Yes, the salon is good for kids. Let us know your child's age and the service when you call so we can book the right amount of time.
What if I need to reschedule?
Please call as early as you can. Early notice lets us offer your time to another client and find a new appointment that suits you.
Booking tips
Get the time you want
The salon can get busy depending on the day and time, so the earlier you book, the more choice you'll have. Saturday is popular — we open at 7:30 AM that day — so if you need a weekend appointment, call a few days ahead. Weekday mornings from 8:30 AM are often a calmer option if your schedule allows.
When you call, tell us the service you'd like, roughly how long your hair is and whether you've had color or chemical treatments recently. That helps us book the right amount of time and get you in and out on schedule.
Most clients come from Bergen-Lafayette, Greenville, the West Side, McGinley Square and Journal Square, but anyone in Jersey City is welcome. Not sure whether we offer what you're looking for? A quick call to (201) 432-2812 will tell you.
