Alternative Beaute was born from a simple belief: that everyone deserves a space where beauty feels personal, not pretentious. Nestled in the heart of Montclair, we've built a salon that listens first and styles second.
Our team brings years of experience and a passion for continuous learning in the latest techniques.
We use only premium, cruelty-free products that protect your hair and the planet.
No rushing. Every appointment is scheduled with enough time to get it right — and make you feel at home.
A glimpse into the transformations happening every day at Alternative Beaute.
The best compliment is when someone walks out feeling like the best version of themselves.
"I walked in unsure and walked out feeling like a completely different person. The color they did for me is exactly what I asked for — and then some. I won't go anywhere else."
"The atmosphere is so calming — it's my little escape all month. My stylist actually listens instead of just doing the same thing every time. It makes all the difference."
"They did my hair for my wedding and it was flawless — lasted all night and the photos are stunning. Everyone kept asking where I found them. Truly magical experience."
Stop by for a visit or give us a call — we'd love to hear what you have in mind. Walk-ins are welcome, but appointments are recommended.
