AMAZINGGGG cut and service! The owner is so nice and really takes his time getting to know what you want, which style is best for your face/level of style, and always asks if it's ok to cut more and will explain the reason why (it's unhealthy or there's more split ends etc) This is not the place that's gonna cut off 6 inches when you asked for 3! He was soooo careful with maintaining length. In my case though, I wanted all the unhealthy parts off so I was just like yep cut if off, yep sure cut off more. He probably cut off a good 6 inches or so and my hair has never looked healthier! I guess I got so used to hair stylists kind of doing whatever like a "consultation" is the reference pic and they're just like ok! But here there's back and forth and lots of suggestions and he really cares about customer satisfaction and even gives lots of advice (eg. try hair mask or hair oil for the dry ends) without selling you anything! Just good advice! No advertising. I was there for a little over an hour and felt so pampered and just knew my hair was in good hands. I also learned he's been in the industry for 10 years and his expertise really shows! It was my first time there but he's sooo nice and friendly you can tell he's best buddies with some of his regulars! It's just like that warm homey neighborhood feeling. Bilingual English and Mandarin speaking, very good haircut and really good vibes! Would totally recommend and will definitely be going back! There's a small parking lot out front! Just one row. Anywhere else I'd say it's hard to find parking, but the side of the strip mall where the studio is was pretty empty, so no problem at all finding a spot! read more

First time there. Found a $40 haircut on Groupon, didn't want to spend a lot of money on a simple haircut. That's when and how the cheap becomes expensive. I was told by Oscar that the Groupon was with Jason. I asked if he was any good, his answer was "Yes, he's very good". First impression, Jason looked unprofessional, the salon was dirty and gross. Floors full or hair from the day before, disgusting! Empty soda cans and a starbucks cup laying around. Very unorganized also. Jason didn't speak or understand English. We had to use Google Translate to communicate and I showed him a couple pictures on how I want my haircut to look like. I even had Oscar translate once he came in, to make sure Jason understood how I want my haircut. Well, the haircut didn't meet my expectations, to say the least. My fault. I should have known better, the minute I walked in. Once I got home, I noticed how crooked the haircut was with uneven hair length and one side longer than the other. I took photos and a video, sent them to Oscar. After saying " Could be the direction of the hair growth", he did invite me to go back so he/they can fix it. I thanked him and told him that I would wash it and see. Once I washed and straightened my hair, I could see the horrible haircut. Clearly, Jason has no skills and isn't competent. I could have done a better job myself. I still tipped him! The positive reviews I read were about Oscar. Unfortunately, he wasn't the one in charge of the Groupon. I definitely would not recommend Jason. I would never go back. It was a waste of money. I do regret it! read more

Oscar is such a good hairdresser. I was very happy with my haircut and how attentive he was. He was a good listener (very important skill for hairstylists, if you ask me!) and was caring. I also got bang trim from Jason and got styled by him, and Jason was also great. The studio also has very reasonable prices. Glad i found this studio! read more

Great haircut by one of the guys here. I almost didn't see this place though I had drove by it because it's inside of a small shopping center. The guy who did my hair was nice and got rid of all my split ends. read more

Oscar was amazing! He was so precise with my haircut. He asked for what I wanted and shared his suggestions to make it better. He did not rush, gave me a thorough shampoo/conditioner wash, and it felt like he gave attention to every strand when he was cutting. Highly recommend! read more

I had my first hair done with Oscar when he was working with InStyle and I've been hooked since. He's always so patient and taking time to care for my hair, from a simple trim so a meticulous bleach and lengthy color process. Never once have I felt rushed working with Oscar, and my hair always comes out the way I want it! read more

Oscar is so sweet. He is meticulous with the hair cut. He takes consideration of your lifestyle into deciding on the right style for your hair. He doesn't treat you like just another client and send you your way the quickest way possible. He makes sure you get the hair style that suits you and takes the time. He also educated me on how to style my hair to make sure the hairstyle will last after I leave the salon. Highly recommend. read more

I've been getting my hair cut by Oscar for almost four years now, and I can confidently say he's the best in the business. No matter where he's gone, I've followed--because when you find a stylist who truly understands your hair and your vision, you stick with them. Oscar recently opened his own salon, and it's nothing short of amazing. The space is stylish, welcoming, and perfectly reflects his professionalism and passion for his craft. But beyond the aesthetics, the experience of getting a haircut with him is always top-tier. He takes his time, listens to what you want, and delivers consistently great results. Whether it's a simple trim or a full transformation, I always leave his chair feeling confident and looking sharp. If you're looking for a talented, personable, and dedicated stylist, Oscar is the one. Highly recommend! read more

This is the best experience I've had getting a haircut! I was able to get a response over the phone immediately, and was able to make a same-day appointment. When I arrived, I was attended to right away. At other hair salons, I have waited over an hour past my appointment time, so this was already a welcome change. Then, I was asked detailed questions about what hairstyle I wanted, at what length, etc., and I felt confident that I would be able to get the exact cut I was looking for. Throughout the experience, I could tell that I was truly having all of my requests considered and that there was no rush to get me out of the chair. He made sure that the length was what I wanted multiple times, explained his thought process, and made sure that I was happy with every cut being made. It was a very meticulous process and I left very satisfied! Another thing is that I have very thick hair, and a lot of hair salons I have gone to have ignored this and left me with a haircut more voluminous than I would like. Here, when I mentioned I wanted to reduce the bulk in my hair, they actually listened to this request and helped to bring down the volume to my desired level. Not to mention, everyone was incredibly friendly! Great conversation, and just a comfortable atmosphere. This service was absolutely 10 out of 10, and I will be coming back here any time I need a haircut! read more

oscar is so sweet and provides good quality and service. i wanted to fix my hair due to not getting the result i wanted from a different salon. he helped me achieve the color i wanted and also gave me advice on how to take care of my hair, etc. he also provides his genuine opinion, in my case letting me know that to achieve my hair it wouldnt be a simple coloring but had to be bleached and that it would wash out easily. definitely recommend! read more

Fantastic!! I was looking for a new hairdresser (prior one moved) and I came across CQ hair. Easy to get an appointment. Jackson understood what I wanted, discussed it at length. Amazing, relaxing hair wash experience. Jackson exceeded all expectations. He was thorough, precise, and very professional. I have found my new hairdresser! Plenty of parking. I support small, local businesses. This is one I will go to repeatedly. I highly recommend you give them a try. And if you don't like the cut, well hey, it's California. Everything grows in California. read more

When I tell you this man has fixed all my hair sins, I mean it! I had previous hair coloring that was just not it and the first time I met with Oscar, he did a full examination of my hair and he fixed the color, the texture and made it softer.

I went to Oscar for hair coloring 3 times in total. I can say that I can trust him 100% with my hair. Never once failed to amaze me with the result. I always get a lot of compliments on my hair.
