Service requested: - women's haircut long: fantastic haircut + great price! I asked for my layers to be blended + curtain bangs + minor thinning of my hair - my hair looks so healthy after styling + cut - Silvia definitely understood what I wanted even without a photo Quality: - Silvia is so fast! My long hair with shampoo was done in 30 minutes - did not have to wait long, started right on time Vibe: - clean, music playing - definitely looks different than old photos read more

Great price and super fast service for perm and cut. Small little shop, nothing really for the decor but she gets the job done. Small space, only Sylvia working with few clients at a time but literally she gets them in and out. I needed some volume in my hair because it was so straight, she gave me volume at the crown area so I could look fuller and trim my hair to add texture from the layers. She is quick and pull and tugs when she is combing your hair so definetely not gentle but I'm fine. Cash only, there is atm machines on the same block each corner has a bank. read more

Sylvia truly knows what's best for you. At first, she didn't exactly follow my request, and I was unsure about it--but I decided to trust her judgment. OMG, the result totally surprised me--I love it! The cut fits me perfectly. Yes, some high-end salons may be more polite and attentive, but the end result often leaves you disappointed, regretting the visit and waiting months for it to grow out. With Sylvia, it's the opposite: less small talk, more skill, and a result you'll actually be happy with. Now my sister and a few of my friends go to her too. Plus, the price is fair and reasonable. I'm definitely sticking with her. read more

Stylist knew exactly what would look nice and she was super super nice and friendly! I love my style! Now I have to go back for a color.

I had beautiful, long hip length hair and I just wanted a trim to about waist length and side bangs like I used to have. I heard good things about Sylvia and wanted to give her a shot. The salon seemed fine and I wasn't worried at first. Then she destroyed my hair. I asked for side bangs and a trim, NOT layers. I have wavy hair and layers basically ruin my curl pattern, and the only way to style them is to use a flat iron. The middle part of my hair is basically collarbone length so I can't braid my hair or do anything other than a ponytail with it now. I have 2 long strands, and the rest of my hair is short. She also trimmed it much shorter than I asked, the long pieces are not even waist length now. I'm devastated. If you are a wavy/curly haired person and/or a person with very long hair DO NOT GO HERE. She was very polite at first and then became scissor happy, I was freaking out after the first cut because she was hacking off my hair in the middle. The damage had already been done, so she had to finish it. Years of growth is now gone and it's going to take at least a year or more to have my hair back to normal. I'm sure she is a very nice lady and does other hairstyles fine, but she definitely doesn't know how to cut very long hair. read more

Silvia is so cute, I have been coming to her for years to chop down the weed also known as my hair. She's very accommodating with her schedule and works with lightning speed. Surprisingly, the speed doesn't affect the quality, she can make my mop look good after! I recommend paying a visit if you're in the market for a new hairdresser :) read more

My first visit today. It was satisfying with my new bob hairstyle. I showed her a sample picture. She shared her idea with me. And then she started cutting my hair. She is quick and skillful. Given the price range of 25 to 30 dollars in the market, she should be one of the top picks for your consideration. read more

skilled and can be quick, seems like she does a lot of the fancier cuts but also perfect for a guy just looking for a hair cut.

My wife introduced me to this beauty salon on Cloverly right across from the Ralph's parking lot. You'll see two hair places. The one on the right is a barbershop but the one you're looking for is on the Left! Baek's Hair Salon is the best and you don't have to worry about who's going to cut your hair because Sylvia the owner does everything herself! Men's hair, no problem! She'll give you a perfect fade on your lunch break. Women's hair, she's a master! Her prices are very reasonable. Be sure to call for an appointment because Sylvia is in high demand and always busy since she's doing everything herself! I always try to help when I visit by sweeping my hair cuttings off her floor! Give Baek's a try and make a new friend in Sylvia! read more

This is the worst haircut I've ever gotten in my life. It was an extremely rough haircut where I felt like my hair was just chopped off. The hair stylist literally just grabbed all of my hair in one hand and just used a giant scissor to cut off 4 inches of my hair in one go. There was very little fixing after that. For the record, I asked for my hair to just be trimmed by 1 inch, but when I told the stylist that she was cutting it too short, she denied it. The layers were extremely poorly done (3 big chops at different levels) and look like it was done by a child. The perm was also very roughly done. The hair perm chemicals were splattered everywhere onto the floor, mirror, and even on my face... I literally spent an hour crying because of how bad my new hair looked. What made it worse was the shock on my friends' faces when they saw my hair. I highly do not recommend coming here unless you want to look like Snape from Harry Potter. I can't even look at myself in the mirror. Save yourself some tears and please don't come here. I would do anything to turn back time to get my old hair back. read more

I only get my hair cuts here. I've tried to go to other places because I had to move a couple times but every time I went somewhere else and was mortified, I came back here and she was able to fix it. My mom goes here and took me here since I was a baby after a failed hair cut at home in kindergarten and I have never trust anyone else since! LOL if you tell her what kind of problem you're having with your hair (I.e. I told her today my hair was too heavy and flat) she will fix it! And not just the temporary one day fix after she styles it but for everyday management!! I seriously don't know what I would do without her. read more

I've been coming here for about 2 years now (only for hair cuts) with Sylvia. She's a super friendly Korean lady who always can keep a conversation going! She always knows how I want my hair and can match a style if I bring a picture along with me. The only con is that they will cut your hair fairly fast if there are other people waiting =( What i love about this place is that I can come back in about 3-4 weeks later and they will cut your bangs for free - one time. shampoo, hair cut & style for $25 not including tip. read more

In&out in 30 minutes flat and only $25 (+$3 tip) lighter! PARKING: Street or private lot south of the salon. LOCATION: I was confused about the location originally bc silly me did not realize there were two salons on Cloverly. It's directly east of the Ralph's parking lot on Cloverly! SERVICE: Silvia did a quick wash of my hair and sat me down in the chair. I noticed that she didn't brush away the hair from the previous client, but I didn't mind that much. She consulted me about length and cut TRUE to the length I requested. She completed the cut with wet hair and styled it. Not too bad considering the price of $25 for shampoo and cut. Call first to check if she's not busy. It was surprisingly busy on a Tuesday afternoon. I'd definitely come back! read more

The hairstyles (Sylvia) is Nice People and know what customer need and her english language is good too. But, inside salon not looks nice (so cahotic) read more

If you're a guy thinking about this place, I have two words for you. Move on. This place might be a 5-star place for the ladies, but she (Silvia) can't do it for the gents. Yes, she's friendly and chatty. Yes, she's quick, skilled, and easy to talk with, but she also blew me off in less than 10 minutes, and that included a shampoo/rinse off. I had short hair and was looking for a quick trim, and gawd dang it she took the #0 clipper and went right at it. After this, my hair looked uneven, inconsistent, and just plain weird. She even trimmed the two sideburns differently! This was the the worst chopped up hack job that I had ever gotten from a hair cutting place, and it costed me $20, tips included. I ended up driving right over to a different hair salon in Arcadia and asked them to "shave everything." At least this way it wouldn't look like someone took an ax to my hair. Again, no offense to Silvia's skill with the ladies, I'm sure she is a wonderful stylist, but this is just not the place for us guys. Sorry I won't be coming back, and I wish you ladies well. read more

Love getting my hair done here! The salonist is super efficient, fast, welcoming, and super nice! She listens well and makes sure to do what she can to get the style you want. Make sure to make an appointment bc she is busy and has lots of clients. However, what I appreciate is that she does her best to fit every client in the day from what i noticed :) read more

Okay... so Silvia is a super sweet lady and she is super fast. For me time is money and I like that I can be in and out quickly. I think you really need to be vocal with her if you want things a certain way, but my hair style is pretty simple and I expect to get it cut every month... so if side burns are a little uneven... I can live and fix them myself... even my old stylist in Ktown got them wrong every so often, but not a big deal to me, as long as I can correct it myself, I normally tell people not to go too high just for that reason. $16 for a men's cut and shampoo (albeit no conditioner like someone else pointed out) still cheaper than supercuts and I trust her way more. She might not be the best stylist I've ever had... but she is fast and relatively cheap. Maybe not $10 cheap, but I was used to paying at least $23 (with tip at supercuts) and used to have a regular stylist at The Hills in ktown in LA... but I don't get over there as often now and they raised the price for a mens' cut/shampoo from $25 to $30 to $35 now... so after tip it is $40. I think I'm losing a lot of hair, so hard to justify paying that much for much longer anyway. lol So $20 for a men's cut/shampoo (including tip) and to be done in a fraction of the time is a win for me. I normally just call ahead to see if she's free and pop in and I'm done in 15-20 minutes. Your miles may vary... read more

WAO!!!! This is definitely the best haircut place to go to ngl. Im that type of person thats not into the combover lifestyle or any fancy haircuts but they definitely did a spectacular job. The korean lady that cut my hair aka Sylvia was super nice and kept a nice long conversation with me and thats what really made me like this place. boy or girl, dog or cat, i recommend erryone to come here because they make ur hella nasty hair, not nasty!!!! hella bomb ngl read more

I used to go here when I was younger. There was only one disasterous hair cut, but I think that was just a miscommunication issue and I was in high school. We all know how well we communicated when we were teenagers. I usually got my hair cut by the younger lady when I used to go there. I've gotten my share of perms too. (it was the 80s/90s, leave me alone). The older lady did my hair for a dance in high school, and it was so elegant. WAY better than the $200 I had spent the year before at another salon that not did awful hair, the stylist burnt my ear and didn't even apologize or take money off the bill. My mom still goes there to this day. It's relatively cheap hair cut (last time I checked it was around $22 for long hair), and they are usually up to date on the styles, but most of their customers are middle aged ladies and their kids (and the some of the kids when they get older). I only stopped going here because I just do too much coloring and highlighting to my hair that I go to a professional colorist now. read more

Love this place! Been cutting my hair with Sylvia for a long time. She always does a good job.

I always have Sylvia for my haircut. I know she always do it in hurry, but I never complain. I also used to share about my gray hair problem to her. She suggested me to do highlight instead of coloring because she said highlight will be less damaging, more fashionable and I do not need to re do it so often. So after a lot of consideration, I made appointment for haircut and highlight on Saturday morning. When I came, there are some people waiting to have their hair done. I showed her a picture of haircut and highlight color I wanted which is natural brown. I need to wait few minutes before she called me to sit and applied something to my hair and wrapped it withfoil. She told one of her customer that she would do my hair first because highlight will be fast to do. She just did my hair in hurry and asked me to wait while she did another lady's hair. After a while she removed the foil from my hair and wash my hair. She told me to wait for a while again while she did cut another person hair. When I saw the color, which was turn out to be like mixed orange or light caramel?. not sure what color it was, I asked her why the color turned out to be different. She seems upset, she tapped my shoulder saying that it cannot be end up the same, it depends on the base hair color. Sylvia, I think before you said, you should look carefully the picture I showed you. It was black hair based, same with my natural hair color. Also because it was my first time to do highlight I did not really understand the process. I thought it was just applying color layer by layer, did not know it was bleached and she did not even explain the process to me. The highlight did end up disaster, not only color was totally different, the result was uneven in places. There are huge chuncks of my side hair that's colored. The back side do not have good amount of colors and my gray hair show up a lot. The color does not even help to make my gray hair less visible. To me it isn't even considered highlight. It is just like streaks or something. I am not a type of person who like to write comment on yelp or other social media, but for this one I feel that I really need to. It was really a nightmare. I really hope my hair will grow fast so I can get rid of this ugly color little by little. I will never come back again. read more

I can not believe it took this long (18 yrs) for me to write an review for Sandra. I've been coming to Sandra for all my haircuts since freshman year in college. I trust her more than anyone else. And if by accident, i had to get my hair done somewhere else, you can count on her to fix it for you. She is up to date on the newest styles and she listens to you on what you want. I live very far, but I still drive 1 hour to go see her. Every friend I've brought to her so far has stayed as permanent customers. Everyone loves her! And the prices are sooo reasonable. you will be shocked. read more

I've been coming to Silvia on-and-off for the past 3 years. She's amazing at her craft. My hair has been getting significantly thinner, but she cuts it in a way to make it appear more voluminous. I don't know how to exactly describe what she does, but she cuts my layers horizontally instead of diagonally in order to make it look thicker? She also uses a razor as little as possible on my hair given its condition. However, when I see her use the razor on some of my girlfriends' much fuller heads of hair, she does an AMAZING job. So far, I have only gotten haircuts from her, but have liked the natural highlights she's done on one of my girlfriends. Silvia's prices are extremely reasonable for the great haircut she gives you ($25). Oh, and she also has an awesome method of curling your hair with only a blowdryer and rounded brush (I admit that my description of her curling technique is not doing her any justice). Just call in advance to schedule an appointment with her. She works fast, does a great job, and has reasonable prices. What more could you ask for? read more

I have going to this place for years and so has my whole family. I trust what Sylvia does on me. She does excellent party hair too! The prices are so reasonable and the quality is great too. MUCH cheaper than other places around the area. read more

My mom has been going to Mrs. Baek for like thirty years...no joke. I used to get my haircuts from her when I was a kid and then stopped while I was away at school, working, etc. Now that I'm back in the area, I needed a GOOD, reasonable place that I could go to regularly. I found Mrs. Baek again when my mom was in town and we both got our haircuts from her. I consider my cut a trendy layered bob [I have wavy hair] and it was executed perfectly. She knew how to get the look I was going for with the type of hair that I have. She also knew how to cut it to flatter my face shape. I get compliments on it all the time. I'm so glad I'm reconnected with her now! read more

This is small place, but I like to got to this place for haircut. I like to go with Sylvi to do my haircut. The price were reasonable.

Recently came across Silvia per recommendation from a friend and I am happy with the result. Silvia is friendly and chatty, quick and skillful. Do prepare to show / explain what style you want for your hair, then she would take it from there. I went from shoulder-length, postpartum messy style to this fresh stylish short hair cut, in pretty much 10 minutes including hair wash for only $25. And I got a lot of compliments on it. : ) read more

The place is not fancy, inside or outside but don't let that discourage you from walking in. The fees are inexpensive, service quick, haircutter very talented and friendly. My son who is in college, very picky about hairstyle and has been to many stylists, says she is the best. Had my hair cut last week and am happy with it. read more

This is the second time that I came here for a cut. Silvia is super sweet, but the last time I went, she seemed super rushed. I felt like she could have taken a little more time on washing my hair. She only used shampoo. I've never been to a hair salon that never used conditioner on my hair. She took maybe 15 minutes to cut my hair. When she blowed dried it, she didn't put heat protectant or any product on my hair. I don't like the way my layers came out. When she cut it, she parted my hair in the middle, when i usually have it parted on the side, so the layers are weird and uneven. Won't being coming back. read more
