    I love Creative Cuts International! The whole experience, from inquiry to getting my haircut to leaving, was the best! I will definitely recommend this place to friends & family. Evelyn, the owner, was able to cut my hair & giiiiirrrlll, y'all need to get your hair done by her. I freaking love my hair! Thank you!!!

    Recently came in for my yearly haircut. This time I was with Monica for a cut/color. She did an amazing job and spent four hours on some painstaking detail with my color. Thanks so much! *They do not accept tip from cards. Bring cash/checks. (I don't have a check book or carry cash.. wish I could have appreciated her a little more!!):

    Rhuki was our hair stylist. My daughter has wavy hair and I wanted more layers to show off her big curls. Rhuki did a great job. We also conditioned her hair. Our bill was $101. Creative Cuts is located inside the shopping center housing BevMo, Curry House, Union Bank on Hawthorne and Torrance Boulevard. This is a very busy salon with multiple hairdressers who appear to be all experts. It has complimentary tea and alkaline water by Nikken. It also has an air purifier by Nikken.

    Paula does an amazing cut! (I did the color myself this time but she will do fun colors as well!)

    I absolutely adore Paula! I am not shy when it comes to cuts and colors so I think we are therapy for each other! The staff is friendly and the other customers fun - a good crowd all around. Pricing seems comparable - just make sure you have cash for a tip. You can pay by card but all tips cash only. They also have plenty of TIGI, Aveda, etc., products to purchase.

    I don't normally write reviews, but we had such a great experience today at Creative Cuts Int'l that I had to do it. I was visiting my mom from out of town, and we took my 8 year old daughter back to school shopping at Del Amo mall. My daughter decided she wanted to not only get a new haircut, but a pixie cut! I was a bit nervous because I don't know any stylists in the area, let alone anybody who could take a walk-in on a Friday afternoon. So I opened my Yelp app and saw that Creative Cuts was close by and had great reviews. I didn't think we'd get in, but I tried calling anyway and the receptionist couldn't have been nicer and said she could get us a slot with Kristy if we came right away. When we got there I was glad and a little surprised to see it was an Aveda salon (I didn't notice that in any of the Yelp info). They took my daughter right away and Kristy was really patient listening to her explaining what she wanted and showing her pictures of ideas she'd found. Kristy really took her time with my daughter and gave her a great cut. My daughter left that salon feeling so great and just beaming. I was so proud of her going for a dramatic change that not a lot of girls her age would have the confidence to pull off. Let me tell you that we went to dinner and another store afterwards and she got several compliments on her hair! Nobody knew us or knew she'd just gotten a new cut, but it looked that great! Kristy was awesome and everyone in the salon (even the customers) were so nice and happy. I only wish we lived closer so we could make Kristy our regular stylist!

    I always have long hair for as far as I can remember. 1) I am always scared of getting short hair because I either look too boyish or I look like I'm in elementary school, too childlike - not sexy at all. 2) This year, I wanted to donate it. I do curls and style my hair, but years of no coloring or any treatments made my hair look...boring. Even with the occasional trimming. My hair is waist long. I spent weeks deciding which salon to have my hair cut short again to be able to donate it, and I am so GLAD I chose Creative Cuts again. I made an appointment with PAULA (after seeing so many good reviews here). Paula made me feel so comfy and I felt I've known her for years. She asked questions regarding my lifestyle and personality (job, fave colors, accessories you wear, etc.). She will cut your hair depending on your own uniqueness. It's getting a hairstyle that no other people have, it's just made for you. We spent a couple of minutes talking about that and she showed me styles that she had in mind, also showed me colors that will compliment my skin tone. She gave me 2 options on style and color. For the cut, I picked one that I think I'll be comfy with. The colors, I told her to go for it! I suggest you let your stylist have the freedom to express of his / her art through hair :) My friends and family don't usually compliment me when I have short hair due to the facts I stated above...but this was the only time I got so many compliments! Also, the first time I love wearing my hair short! Book with PAULA! She's awesome :)

    I've been going to the ever so bubbly Yoko at Creative Cuts for some time now and love what she does with my hair. She seems to really understand Asian hair and how it needs to be cut, layered, thinned out, and colored. I had a hard time finding a stylist that I trust my hair with and then my girlfriend recommended Yoko to me and I've been a loyal customer ever since. I also like the fact that she can pretty much to it all - cut, color, add bold chunks, highlight... I did have a consult with Quan to get my already straight hair straightened, but his prices were WAY too high (~ $400). I just wanted the process done to lessen my morning prep time, but the at the prices he quoted me you'd think I had super kinky/curly hair that would be difficult to straighten completely. I would recommend going to Kim Young Sun salon in Torrance to get this done instead. They're much cheaper (about $250) and I think first time customers can still print coupons online off their website.

    Christie did an amazing job.  And this was my first appt w her.  happy

    Brittany rocks. I always enjoy coming here , great Torrance location and near everything. This place has been around forever and thus place has pedigree and great people I was in between my Manhattan beach spot and creative for years, however I'll stick w Creative & Brittany from here on out. Why no 5 stars? It's pretty simple to me as a creative type and global designer, this place needs a serious interior update. It's way past the face lift call and can u imagine this interior brought into a new era call 2017! So owners it's time to get bright , modern and attract the changing and needs of the money and chic movement of things in Torrance. Look at Hawthorne Blvd and Del Amo. The entire beach cities are evolving. I'll be back , but this interior is just so old and not very lively. Thanks Britt!

He services his scissors in Japan semi-annually just to maintain his equipments in great condition. This helps prevent split ends and other hair troubles I used to frequently encounter. Nori also uses a scale to formulate the hair colors. You can feel assured you won't come out of the salon looking funky. Appointments can be made online directly from his website, or by emailing/texting him directly. He is very flexible and accommodating with appointments. Lastly, parking can be found adjacent from the salon building structure. You can also charge your EV for free too. Amex accepted and drinks and clean environment offered. Can't recommend Nori enough.

I have had fine hair all my life, but even still my hair has always taken well to perms, always. Even the last one over a year ago. The only complaint I had was the use of larger rods which made my hair more wavy curl than curly. Nori had said that my hair wouldn't take well to a perm, but because I know my hair's history, I asked him do it anyway and he agreed to do it. First he used a more gentle solution because of my pervious perm over a year ago (did not ask if I wanted that), and I didn't know until he was already in the process of using it on my hair... my hair needs the stronger solution. Second he did a loose curl wrap instead of a tight curl wrap. With fine hair (or at least my hair) it needs to be curled up against the scalp. I think he did this because it was a hot treatment perm (which I never had before) vs a cold treatment perm. He didn't give an option. So the perm came out ok on the bottom because it already had the previous perm that was there from a year ago. But the top part of my hair had virtually no difference. If you have fine hair and looking to get a perm, I would not recommend Nori. I'm sure he does really well with all other hair services. To his credit, the perm itself, aside from the lack of curl, was a healthy perm (did not harm my hair) and he did give a very nice cut prior to the perm process. I think if he would have explained his treatment process and how it differed from what I had previously experienced, that may have helped my decision to go elsewhere, before wasting over $200 I had taken a year 1/2 to save. Again I think he probably does really well with the other services he provides. I just think for women (or men) with fine hair, you may want to think twice if you're looking to get a perm.

[Parking]: Ace Beauty Center shares the same parking plaza as Tokyo Central and Daiso with plenty of available free parking spots. [Price]: $40 for a men's haircut plus one shampoo. [Process]: I arrived one minute late to my appointment and she wasted no time and began cutting my hair. I could tell Vivi is an experienced stylist and was good at what she was doing. I only showed her one specific Asian hairstyle picture on my phone and she was able to replicate the same hairstyle and complete the haircut process in 30 minutes. She asked whether I would like to wash my hair at the end and I said yes. Afterward she added some finishing touches and trimmed my hair. [Conclusion]: I was very satisfied with the end result and would definitely recommend Vivi. She was efficient and no-fuss with a reasonable haircut price.

Thank you Nikki and Joe for working on me for 5-6 hours to get this done. Honestly, I almost feel bad because Nikki would explain to me the process in detail and I would be clueless and just nodding my head since this was my first time and I got no clue about being blonde along with the technical terms included in the process of doing it. She knew this and changed her way of explaining so that I could understand it better. Haha. Things I learned was 1 close my eyes when they're rinsing off the bleach, 2 also close my eyes when I'm on the dryer with the bleach and 3 take all the stretch breaks that's offered. There's always a first time for everyone. The results were amazing!! I was nervous, scared and excited because it was a big change but also I didn't know if the color was gonna match me. She assured me that it would look great and it takes a lot to say something like that because that just meant that she knew what she was doing and it was true. Experience was great!
