Matt did everything right with me and my hair. I have been seeking a hairdresser, since my long…read moreterm chica left for Hollywood. I would go visit someone based on multiple sourced reviews, only to be disappointed. This time around, I went to Reddit. Matt had replied to a request for a good haircut, providing a link to his cuts. They were unique, reflecting an artsy vibe, instead of the status quo. It was easy to get an appointment. Matt took his time exploring what I wanted and didn't want. Fortunately he has a preference for razor cuts as do I. Respect for a person who doesn't need scissors to shape the cut first. I He brought me a lovely French press as I had missed my morning dose. Matt is personable, making the wait entertaining as the magic took place. So charming,. My hair was cute on the day of the cut, but I did not capture it. The photos are from the next morning. I got exactly what I wanted and LOVE this hair.

THIS IS $290 I came to this salon in March and returned in…read moreMay for the same service: a highlight root touch-up. Aside from a few highlights around my face and on the top of my head, it didn't look like I had recently had my roots highlights touched up at all. My hair looks grown out as if I had not even had it done. Watch the video and you be the judge. When I brought up my concerns, the owner, I sent her this same video (Emily) explained that this is what the salon considers a partial ROOT highlight touchup. I already had my hair previously bleached . I respect that explanation, but for $240 plus a $50 tip ($290 total), I expected a more noticeable result. She offered to correct it for an additional $50. I'm sharing my experience so others can make an informed decision and have a clear understanding of what this salon considers a partial highlight ROOT service.

I'm terrible at keeping up with frequent touch-ups (oops) but thanks to Faith my blonde is so low-maintenance. I love how it turned out. She uses great products too. You can truly tell she truly loves her craft and stays dedicated to learning and growing in the hair industry. The Lotus Salon itself was very pretty and modern! Parking is just around the corner (like 5 steps) from the salon and everyone was really nice. I'll definitely be back. Thank you!

I've been going to Thao at Hair Society for several years now. She was the first person to ever…read morecolor my hair, back when I still had virgin hair. I remember feeling extremely nervous the first time I lightened my hair, worried about potential damage. Thao guided me through the entire process and reassured me that she would keep my hair healthy while also making sure it remained low maintenance. Over the years, I've gone from dark to light and back to dark again. Each time, Thao has been incredibly professional and patient. I remember sending her numerous inspiration photos, and she was always honest about what was achievable with my hair. Without causing any damage, she successfully lightened my hair without it ever becoming brassy. Keep in mind when you go light, you have to get it toned and maintain your hair or it could potentially get brassy. Thao is very personable and always makes me feel welcomed and comfortable--like she's not just my hairstylist but also my therapist. I constantly get compliments on my cut and color, thanks to her. Whether it's your first time getting your hair done or you've been coloring it for years and need someone new you can trust, I highly recommend Thao! Hair Society recently relocated and is now at Tomahawk Salon, located at 775 West 17th St, Costa Mesa, CA 92627.

I scheduled a haircut appointment with Jaimie and I left feeling like a million bucks. She knew exactly what I NEEDED. She walked me through my haircut and shared some knowledge about my hair.

Will be recommending all my friends to her.

I've done haircuts, balayage, highlights, full color, etc. with her over the years and always leave happy with the results.

I had an appointment with Asako, who is the owner, and she is very kind and extremely talented. I had the most relaxing scalp and shoulder massage, and she uses aromatherapy which makes the experience that much better. She also has different choices of tea, an iPad, blanket and pillow so that you feel really comfortable. I had to cut my bangs a bit shorter because I had damaged the ends, and so she cut them into curtain bangs. She was incredibly sweet to even show me how to best style them, and recommended how to avoid damaging my hair. She really went above and beyond. You can tell that she really loves what she does. Ever since I moved 5 years ago, I had been on a search for a hairstylist whom I loved and now I've found the place I'll keep coming back to. Thank you so much, Asako!

Brittany understood exactly what I wanted and delivered it perfectly.

The color, dimension, and overall blend turned out even better than I imagined. If you're looking for someone who truly knows how to bring your hair goals to life, I can't recommend Brittany enough.

Not the kind of white ashey blonde that most hairstylists do. I was also on a time crunch to pick up my daughter from school in time. I was totally apprehensive about giving someone new a try, but she totally delivered on exactly what I wanted, both the sexy cut and the perfect warm balayage. She also got me out in under 3 hours, which is crazy fast! When my husband saw my hair, he said, "I don't know what this is but whatever it is, THIS IS IT. This is the look." Best. compliment. ever. haha

Even though I only came in for a haircut, she took the time to give me honest advice about my hair. She recommended that I should focus on treating and restoring my hair first, and then come back next time for coloring so the results would look better and healthier. What really impressed me was her thoughtfulness -- she noticed that my roots had grown out unevenly in color, so she went ahead and blended the color to match the rest of my hair. And she didn't charge me anything extra for it, only for the haircut. You can truly tell that she cares about her clients and takes pride in her work. She's not only skilled but also very genuine and attentive. I will definitely be coming back to her again Highly recommend her if you're looking for someone talented, honest, and kind!

Cost was $110 plus tip for a long hair cut, which includes shampoo and styling.

I paid over $300 for a haircut and single-color service. My complaint is not simply about the final…read morehair result, but about the overall service and professionalism I experienced. During the appointment, the stylist made several comments that felt unnecessary, judgmental, and uncomfortable. Instead of feeling listened to as a client, I felt dismissed and pressured. A salon appointment should feel professional and respectful, especially when the client is paying several hundred dollars for a service. I also did not feel that my concerns were handled with care during the appointment. I felt uncomfortable continuing, but at the time I did not know how to address it directly. Looking back, I wish I had asked to speak with a manager before the service continued. For a salon charging this price point, I expected a much more respectful and customer-centered experience. Clients should not leave feeling upset, uncomfortable, or regretful after paying over $300. I hope management takes feedback like this seriously and provides better training on communication, professionalism, and how to handle client concerns during a service. Based on this experience, I would not return.
