    Before vs After
    Melanie H.

    My experience at this salon was phenomenal compared to other places I've gone for my hair. This was my first time experimenting with red and Jess did a beautiful job. She talked me through the entire process and answered all my questions. If anyone is looking for a professional stylist with a great attitude, Jess is your girl! The entire staff was friendly and welcoming, I would recommend this salon to anyone. (They also have very safe precautions regarding covid. Everyone wears a mask the entire time, your temperature is taken when you first arrive, and hand sanitizer is plentiful)

    This is how I walked in after terrible color correction elsewhere

    Blanc Noir and Dennis saved me. Seriously. I had a horrible experience with another salon (see review!) and after color correction my hair was a disaster. I called and they were able to fit me in the next day, thankfully. I was covering my hair in a ballcap - that's how bad it was. Dennis was lovely - I really enjoyed working with him, he knew what he was doing, and given what he had to work with he did a fantastic job. He even fixed bangs that had been cut way too short. It was worth the $550 (with tip) to feel good again. My only thing I would improve is that, while the assistant was nice, he pulled foils out pretty roughly and his blow out was kind of painful and not amazing - I was happy when Dennis took over and finished styling my hair because it looked beautiful when I left. I really appreciated Dennis taking great care of me - he was sincere and understood how I felt and I enjoyed talking with him. He made me feel comfortable and like I was in good hands. I feel lucky I was able to get in on short notice. I will be back.

    Yes . Just , yes . I have been coming to Blanc Noir since they were located in Costa Mesa for about , and I cannot day enough good things about them . Here is a rundown of what to expect from Blanc Noir ... Friendly front desk that actually greets you when you walk in and offers you a drink from a large variety of things ( I chose grapefruit Perrier yesterday , followed by bottled water since I was getting a lot done yesterday ) . Jonnie is a literal hair color wizard . I've seen him do beautiful darks , icy blondes, sun kissed blondes , reds , there is literally nothing he can't accomplish wIth color . He travels around teaching color because people trust his expertise as much as I do with my very long hair ( he has never fried it, even though I go very light blonde ). He's not only amazing, but so much fun to talk to! Abel is one of the most talented hair stylists ( cutters) I've seen . He has naturally curly hair , so he is not only good at cutting straight hair (which I've seen him do time and time again while getting my color done ), but he can handle men's cuts with ease and dIes the entire thing expertly without clippers , he has done my long hair and never cut my length shorter than I wanted , etc . He does a fabulous job with cuts, blow outs , styling, anD Brazilian blow outs . He's also incredibly sweet like Jonnie . Kelli sits next to Jonnie, so every time I get my hair color done , I see her incredible hair colors. If Jonnie wasn't available , I would 150% trust her with my hair . She has turned out beautiful color after beautiful color , and is also incredibly sweet. We were both pregnant at the same time , so I've seen her over the years, and she still kills the color into motherhood ! Liz has done a Brazilian blow out for me before , and she did a fabulous job . She also did a gorgeous , glamorous shoulder length cut on an older lady yesterday that was freakin stunning. Chloe has gone from receptionist to very confident colorist . I've watched her over the years , and am blown away by her confidence, professionalism , and skill. She did a blonde yesterday that was drop dead gorgeous . She looks like she's been doing hair for 20 years. Yesterday , I had the pleasure of meeting Cara. She is not only a total sweetheart, but she turned my wreck of hair into something I could really feel confident in. I generally am only able to get my hair done for special occasions, and so it had been a LONG time since I was in last. My hair was neglected , grown out , dry and frizzy . Cara did it all. She did a full highlight , Brazilian blow out and cut. She listened to what I wanted , and really delivered . She was pleasant , professional , made sure I had a drink if I needed one, gave a great shampoo massage, and had me leaving feeling stunning . She is a perfectionist and rechecks everything she does to make sure your hair comes out perfect . I don't think there is a single bad banana in this bunch . You are in good hands if you come here . They are not cheap, but you won't leave the salon with hair that will take you a year or two of recovery. You get what you pay for ! I personally like to get my hair done less often by a team that I know will deliver rather than chance it at a cheaper salon where I might have to cut years worth of growth off due to my hair getting overprocessed or something.

    Today was my first time at this salon and Cynthia absolutely NAILED IT! I'm in love with my hair! She got the exact blonde I wanted and have been wanting for years! She's also one of the most professional stylists I've ever had. My whole experience was amazing and I couldn't be happier

    Hair by Dennis - Blanc Noir salon Newport Beach!
    Suzie W.

    Shout out to Dennis!!!! OMG he's amazing. My hair needed so much TLC after a year in the pandemic and he just knocked it out of the ball park. I've never received so many compliments in my life. Dennis took the time to listen to what I wanted and did his magic. It came so naturally for him because not only is he an expert on color and highlights but also confident and rightfully so might I add. His talent is beyond words. Had a root touch up, highlights, and a great cut and blowout. Dennis is the all time super star. Also, the salon is top notch! The staff is amazing and friendly, they kept the place looking clean like a million bucks. This is my go to hair salon going forward, no other can compare. Shout out to Blanc Noir, owners, and the staff, y'all rock!!!

    Before and after. Color by Cara and cut by Liz!

    It has been over two years since my initial review, and Blanc Noir is still the best hair salon in Orange County. Their Covid-19 setup is impeccable, complete with plexiglass partitions, enforced social distancing, and even individually wrapped robes. All of the staff wear masks at all times, and clients are expected to do the same. Liz is a visionary with great taste. I strayed from her once and deeply regretted it. I came crawling back with a bad haircut, which she managed to fix, without taking off much more length. Today, she transformed me from quarantine gremlin to perfect princess with long, expertly executed layers. She has made invaluable recommendations regarding hair products and styling tools as well. I got color done by Cara today as well, and was blown away at her ability to not only read my mind (I struggle to express my hair goals), and make me look like a better version of my natural self. Her use of gloss added beautiful shine and dimension to my hair. Be sure you have plans after your appointment, because you will walk out of this salon looking incredible.

    I have never loved my hair more. My hair is softer than ever and I'm so happy with how my new hair makes me look and feel.

    Helena S.

    I'm always nervous to try new hair salons because I'm very particular about how my hair looks. When I got my hair done here for the first time Jess made me feel super comfortable!! She was absolutely amazing and I've had my hair done by her twice!! The first time I got highlights and recently she dyed my hair completely blonde. I'm completely in love with my new hair!!! Not only does my hair look amazing, but Jess made the time fly!!!! I highly recommend getting your hair done by Jess!! She's not only incredibly talented, but she's also very sweet and will make your experience at the salon amazing!! Definitely going back!!!

    Blanc Noir

    Was in the brassy orange brown hair phase which I understand is a process. What I didnt understand is why my hair looked abandoned mid process after three trips to two different salons, and almost a grand spent. Thankfully, Blanc Noir can back up their 5 stars. Cynthia and Cara did an awesome job. Cynthia nailed the coloring and Cara cut/trimmed my hair just right. Very happy with the results and will return for any touch ups.

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 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.

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.
