    unfortunately, the way my hair looks is not what i expected from a salon i've been going to for quite awhile the length of my hair may have been a matter of miscommunication, but i did explicitly state that i only wanted an inch off the bottom of my hair. later in the session, my stylist had asked something along the lines of "do you want it to be shorter or just cut off as much as we need to?" assuming that the latter meant we'd only cut off an inch, i responded with cutting of as much as we needed to. my hair is 4 inches shorter than when i came in. i likely needed it to be trimmed shorter anyway, but the lack of communication took me by surprise and i did not realize how short she cut my hair until she turned me around in the chair. the length of my hair is the least of my worries, as i'm really upset with the way the color came out. i requested a dark root similar to my reference photos, and instead i received a root that looked mostly untouched, and possibly looking even more grown out than it did when i came in. there was a random line of black color in my blonde sections, the blonde sections start abruptly at random points in my hair, and the blend was overall uneven and choppy. it wasn't until the morning after (i left the salon around 8:15pm) i realized how poorly done the blend was. i am really surprised and disappointed that after 8 hours and almost $400 (on this session alone!) i was allowed to walk out of the salon with my hair looking like this in the first place. they made an effort to fix it for free (which i appreciate), but very minor improvements were made--it looks even further from the reference photos. at this point, i just want a refund. i've sent multiple emails and submitted feedback via the automated form that sends out, and i haven't heard back despite checking the box stating i'd like someone to reach out to me. very disappointing :')

    I love their customer service! They offered me a refund because I got the wrong product even though it was used. And when they didn't know which haircut one was you would just show them a picture and they would do it. It is so convenient and I would totally recommend going here. I would give 6 stars

    This is how I came in with my hair grown out and just some ends that were not it

    Tbh I gave this place a couple chances. I asked for bright red hair and she bleached my hair and dyed it violet purple and said it's red in the sun. I honestly which she would've admit and say let's fix it but paid $450 for something completely different. I ended up going back and she stripped it damaging my hair that I had just grown entirely out. But what can. I do. Moving forward I tried to go again for a blowout I normally got for $15 and there seems to be new ppl. This new girl EM I got is super cute but her vibe was not it. I am usually talkative with my hair stylist there suppose to make u feel confident. Coming in with ur hair is you know is something u wanna open up and trust about. She point out how it's dead and how I dyed it and this and that but the delivery was not it. She was talkative with everyone else but me. I get my hair isn't in the best shape but it was high key damaged from them too. Not her exactly but that same place. I'd say be very careful who u choose if u go!

    Had an exceptional experience booking a haircut for my boyfriend here at Bishop's. I really appreciated the kind service the wonderful cleanliness of the establishment and how well Tori took care of his hair!

    what i wanted

    Not great experience overall! Called and came in for a hair consult asking for a specific pastel pink color and was assured it could be made possible! I contacted my stylist through instagram and sent so many inspiration pics of the exact shade that I wanted ! She told me over and over we could do it! The day of my appointment everything seemed to be going fine but for reasons unknown the final shade of my hair color looked NOTHING like what I wanted and was super streaky and just overall looked very unprofessional! Made me so sad since i'm a teenager who works a minimum wage job and saved up for a whole month to afford this 200$ hair job and was given nothing like what I wanted.

    I booked Amy after a few friends had recommended her and she was so nice!! The service and atmosphere was great. I'll definitely be back!

    I needed a fresh cut before this weekend's conference and wanted to try Bishops. My usual spot for a cut is in Westminster but could not get out there this week. Let me tell you why Destiny is a superb stylist: I was greeted promptly and with courtesy upon entering this location. Since I had checked in early there was not any wait time. Me and Destiny had a good discussion about my previous cut experience and then decided on a zero-fade with a comb over. Destiny's technique is excellent, and I could tell she cut and blended with care throughout the process. The wash was very relaxing and I thoroughly enjoyed the mint fragrance shampoo and conditioner. Destiny also gave me a lot of tips on how to create shape with the blow dryer, and some pomade that will suit the quality of my hair (straight, hard to control). One suggestion I have for newcomers is to come in with a hairstyle in mind, or with reference photos. Since it was my first time I wanted to do something different than the ol run of the mill Asian fade n spikes cut (still a classic...). Even though I'm used to closer blends, this cut was still hella dope!

    It's $29 per hair cut. They do a really good job at cutting hair. Anita definitely knows what she is doing.

    Amy is awesome, always left me looking fresh (would usually get a 1-2 taper and the top trimmed).

I showed my stylist the cut I wanted and expressed the length I wanted as well. She suggested to make it longer and I agreed, surely she had the best intentions in mind. I wanted layers and walked out with a long bob. My stylist was too scissor happy. She hacked it all off in 15 minutes. The shaping is atrocious and its way shorter than I had originally expressed. She had cut 6 inches of my hair off and looked regretful at the end. Even her coworker was expressing in Korean how short it was. My hair is a mess and it's too short now to be saved.

I had just moved to the area again and wanted to find a hairstylist during my time here. I read a review that said she'll let you know her honest opinion and I'm so glad because for me personally, I would hate it if I came in wanting something and the hairstylist thinks it's ugly (but is quiet about it) and I walk out feeling regretful that I wanted to try xyz lol. My first haircut came out nicely after we chatted about what I wanted and what she thinks would look best, and she recommended me a brown I should try in the future. Today is that future time. It's my second time here! I came in knowing vaguely what I wanted (Some sort of lighter brown with bangs since I had black hair with no bangs lol). We chatted and then I simply trusted the process. She ended up giving me curtain bangs that can also be a little wispy also, and cut my hair to a length that looked soooo good. There was so much attention to detail when she was cutting too. It was great. For the color, she said that a lighter color might not actually look the best on me and a subtle brown might be better! I was pretty down for whatever she thought looked good so I trusted the process again. Let me tell you... this subtle brown looked so good with the cut. Also, my hair? Soft as HECK. It was kinda gritty before so I was shook when I touched my hair after the appt. She chatted with me lots and also gave me space too. It was a great balance and also she answered my questions!! I always have so many questions and she answered them all for me!! Including... how to style my hair because I suck at those things. I'll take any advice and tips I can get. Price is reasonable for OC too! TLDR; I walked in with messy hair that made me look dead inside and walked out with softer dyed hair AND styling knowledge. If that isn't a win, I don't know what is.
