At first glance, this is one of the local salons with low-cost services for regular haircuts, or…read moreone of those places to make chismis with your weekend manicuristas. I guess at some point, it kinda is. Being largely concerned about my hairstyle, I would only trust my hair to somebody who knows what they're doing. I'd like to keep its uniqueness, because any mistake would super suck. I tried this salon one time because it's just a few tumbles away from home. Owned by a Japanese businesswoman, I got curious. Maybe they train their hairstylists differently here? My current do right now is a super long, multi-layered shaggy-ish hairtyle and is dyed bright blond. And by long, I mean it falls right down my knee. And I am proud that this salon is my salon, not because I just spend less than a hundred pesos to get my perfect octopus layers (which they can execute correctly from my peg pictures, by the way), they also show care for me and warns me when I'm overbleaching my hair (haha!). I can also buy my own medicines and make them apply it, and it saves me the hassle of dyeing my own hair! This salon is also known for their long-lasting hair rebonding work. I think it's their most popular service. So if you're looking for a salon that's cheap and trustworthy, and you live around Makati, try it!

I was on a recent visit to Manila and really needed a bangs trim (or so I thought). After having…read moredinner at Jin Joo Glorietta 4, I casually mentioned my "need" to my relatives. A couple of them recommended that I get my quick fix at the Bench Fix Salon on the second floor. Up the stairs I went and was greeted by the receptionist, who mentioned that the price for the trim was PhP 500--no problem. I was then pleasantly greeted by senior stylist Roland, who sat me in the chair and started chatting with me about why I was looking for a bangs trim. He began combing through my hair with his fingers, expertly analyzing the cut and the layers. I knew right then that he was no slouch--that he could make my cut much better. And voilà! He asked if I'd consider some shaping instead, as the rate was the same. Honestly, the price was secondary to me. I was already impressed with the way Roland handled my hair while analyzing it. So the answer was "Yes." I love that there was a different person who shampooed my hair--the massage was amazing. I sadly forgot her name. She has been at this location for 10 years. I want to emphasize that her role is serving as a partner to Roland. She preps clients like me. She also did the blow‑dry after the cut, at which point Roland came back in and started doing finishing touches to my hair at the tail end of the drying. The result? More life. More modern cut. More style. More swing. He didn't even remove an inch of length--just added shape overall. I loved it. I wish I could be at this place every month. I then resolved to: 1. change my stylist when I get back to the US--someone who can follow this cut; and 2. return to this location on my next visit--asking for Roland in particular. I also recommended him right away to a couple of relatives and friends in Manila. What a find.

I am naturally curly (2b curls) and it took years for my curls to get there. I followed her advice - she said it will just remove the frizz but maintain the curls. I ended up with pin straight hair. I have a feeling its for commission without respecting the clients request. Even had the audacity to sell me shampoo after. If you're curly, dont go here. If you want what you request respected, don't go there. Dont buy anything; they're selling it not because you need it but because they do.

The result: I have a specific salon per specific need. I've awarded my threading and coloring needs to this Studio Fix. I won't tell you who colors my hair because he is my secret weapon (and you might rat on me and tell him that I just DIY dyed my hair black) but I will tell you who handles my brows: Glo. I've had many threading therapists in this life but only a few have landed on my go-to list. Glo is on this list because she knows her thread really well. She knows what shape your brows should have, doesn't overthread, does the service cleanly and fast and has the bibo personality that makes you feel at home. Plus, I love how this salon doesn't get crowded! Two brows up!

They also show true concern for your hair and they explain clearly if something can work or not in terms of hair care and if it will further damage your hair.

They might be on the higher end priced compared to the other local salons but I still Highly recommend, especially when I only color my hair once or twice a year.
