I had a hair extension service done last year at this salon. During the consultation, I discussed…read morethe look I wanted, but the final result did not match what I expected. The color was not a proper match to my hair, and I was not given a clear opportunity to review or approve the length before installation. After the service, I noticed that some of the extension bonds were visible and the overall application did not blend naturally with my hair. At the time, I left a positive review shortly after my appointment, but I later felt it did not reflect my actual experience. I was also dealing with personal circumstances that made it difficult for me to address the issues right away. I am sharing this update so others have a more accurate picture of my experience

My hair went from flat and unstructured to soft, styled, and full of life. It genuinely changed how I feel walking out the door. John has a great eye for what works and clearly knows what he's doing. He didn't just give me a generic cut. He shaped everything in a way that actually suits my face and texture. The result feels polished but still natural, which is exactly what I wanted. On top of that, he's just a genuinely kind and easy person to talk to. The whole appointment felt relaxed and comfortable, not awkward or rushed. If you're on the fence, don't be. This was one of the best hair experiences I've had, and I'll absolutely be going back.

He's incredibly talented and has a real gift for understanding exactly what I want and bringing it to life. He's amazing with his hands, creates such a chill and comfortable environment, and is genuinely just a great person. I even sent my mom to him because she can be indecisive and is a little self-conscious about her thin hair and her accent. She absolutely loved him and said, "He is very good, and he has very gentle hands." That honestly says so much. I've had some pretty bad experiences with stylists in the past, and Jonathan is hands down my favorite. He's incredibly consistent, talented, and truly cares about what he does. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a new stylist or hair artist!

When I say she's the one blonding and color queen in Los Angeles County, I mean that with my whole chest. There is no one doing it like Kelly. Not only is she insanely talented, but she's also one of the most personal, personable, and easy-to-connect-with humans you'll ever sit in a chair with. Every appointment feels less like a salon visit and more like catching up with a friend. The conversations are effortless, the energy is always good, and the amount of laughter we share during processing time is honestly therapeutic. And this pink? Absolute perfection. She somehow found the exact shade of pink that matches my personality... bold, soft, powerful, and unapologetically me. It's not just color, it's me! Kelly doesn't just do hair; she gets people. She listens, she understands, and she creates looks that feel authentic, confident, and aligned with who you are. So, if you're looking for someone you can trust long-term, someone who delivers consistently flawless color, and someone who makes every appointment feel like a vibe: Kelly Viviani is your girl. No competition. No question. No hesitation. Just call her.

I asked a lot of questions about layers, styling, washing frequency, hair health, and he patiently answered every one of them. It's obvious that he genuinely enjoys what he does and has a great understanding of hair. He was confident with his techniques, professional, and very kind throughout the appointment. Most importantly, he fixed the face-framing pieces I had been unhappy with and gave me a haircut that feels much more flattering and intentional. I left feeling educated, listened to, and happy with the result. I would definitely return.

I found this place through Yelp and was a bit hesitant since I hadn't dyed my hair in a while, but…read moreI decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, I left very disappointed. I paid $620 total (including a 15% tip, $540 before tip) for a balayage and haircut, which felt extremely high--especially considering the haircut alone was only $80. During the appointment, the experience itself was uncomfortable. Chemicals were dripping onto my face, leaving stains on my forehead, and when my hair was washed, the water was cold and splashed everywhere. A few days later, after washing and styling my hair the way I normally do, I noticed how off the balayage looked. My roots already appeared very grown out--almost halfway down my head. I understand balayage is meant to grow out naturally, but this looked like it had been done months ago when it had only been a week. Even my family commented that it looked grown out. I called the salon to see if they could fix the top portion, and I was told my stylist, Angel, would call me back--but I never heard from her. Overall, I'm really disappointed. Not only was the service expensive, but the results didn't meet expectations, and there was no follow-up or effort to make it right.

I truly only write reviews when I'm blown away with a business's outstanding service! I was in search of a hairstylist that would give me the perfect layered cut and highlights. Rain delivered on all points. She was very professional, warm and friendly. She took her time with me and didn't rush me out the door. I have been to MANY hairdressers before and they did not come close to the experience I had with Rain. I've had so many compliments on my cut and color that I refer everyone to her. She's a keeper, I won't trust anyone else with my hair again. Thanks Rain! read more

She truly took the time to consult me on what I wanted, teach me about the process, clarify any confusion or potential misconceptions, and ensured I was comfortable every step of the way considering I know very little about hair and get a little nervous in the chair. I actually came in looking for what I thought was a simple tone but ended up being a bigger job. And, even still, Susie didn't turn me away but instead agreed to do the bigger job despite it not being what I was scheduled for. She got my hair to where I've been wanting it to be at for months now because she was able to help translate what it was that I was actually asking for.
