Jarrod is my hero. Period. End of story. I will never go to another person for my hair again. Here's why: I played with dying my own hair in high school and college (adventurous type) went with red, green, blue, pink, purple, black, blonde and every combination of those that I can think of, cut my own hair, buzzed my head a couple times, grew it back, donated my pony tails to locks of love for years, permed, straightened, and for a brief while had dreads. I don't work in a stuffy stuck up environment so I continued to play with my hair through my professional life as well, I don't regret this. So when I bleach burned my hair 4 years ago and had to chop it off and grow it back for the millionth time I decided I'd like to have it long and leave it that way. I got the itch for fun colours this past February and because it was half way down my back I decided I'd have it done in a salon. Colour of choice: magenta. I asked for no bleach (my natural hair is a light golden brown) i understood that vivid colour wouldn't be attainable without bleach I have no problem with that. Five and a half hours later I'd been fully bleached almost to the point of cotton candy hair (fuzz for days) and I looked like a Smurffy Cheshire Cat reject had thrown up on my head. I tried to accept it as part of the change and told myself I would come to like it. I waited 3 days as instructed before washing to let the dye "set". Almost all of it rinsed out. I was crushed and vowed no more! No more stupid decisions with my hair!!! It's not fun anymore I want to love it at first sight not question who my reflection is!!! And then. And then I found Jarrod. He changed my hair. He changed my reflection. He changed my life. I could not be more ecstatic!!! I went from a bad bleach job gone blonde to the most beautiful red hair I've ever seen, it has tone it has light it makes my skin look better!!! Maybeline better find a new jingle cuz Jarrod just owned them. "Maybe she was born with it, maybe it she went to Jarrod" All I can say is thank you so much for everything Jarrod!!! (Especially teaching me how to use a blow dryer and rollers!!!) I'll see you in a few months and I'll love you forever!!! read more

Daniel Michael Salon - Jarrod worked his magic I'm an evil ginger now!!! - Hair Salons Near Me - San Juan Capistrano, California

I honestly have never appreciated getting my haircut. It was something I had to do and felt like a chore. I can honestly say that Trevor has given me the best haircut I have gotten and I had him cut my hair for my wedding. You can tell that he puts true passion into his career that is probably lost read more

Ask for Christina, she does a great job. The last time I was here was a few years ago and I was charged ~$85 for a hair cut and ~$125 for highlights. I presume the rates have increased since then, but if you can put the pretentiousness of the salon behind you, Christina is well worth the money. She's not much of a talker, so don't go there expecting to chat. She does her job and moves on to the next client. This salon is sort of like a factory that way. The salon itself is wannabe industrial with touches of urban chic--it wants to be hot and stylish like some salons in West Hollywood or Brentwood, but fails miserably because it's located in a decidedly un-hip area. A concrete floor and lots of staff walking around in black does not make you cool, m'kay?? read more

I have been going to Daniel Michael Salon for years. Regina has been doing my hair for about 30 years now. She is fantastic!

This is the best salon in Orange County and definitely in South Orange County. Danny Berumen is not just a hairstylist, he's a genius. He will transform your hair. I've known him for nearly 20 years and he's just simply the best. The salon itself has a wonderful atmosphere but most importantly your hair will look and stay looking amazing. read more

Daniel Michael Salon is the best in Orange County!! Danny Berumen has cut my hair for 17+ years. I wouldn't let anyone else touch my mane! :) Danny and his staff are the most professional and best stylists and color people in the business. If you haven't tried Daniel Michael, then it's time to experience the service and top notch professionals this salon offers. There really is no reason to go anywhere else..... Jim Zimmer read more

Best color and cut in town! They always treat you like a million bucks! Great people and great style! read more

I got my hair done for the first time here today and I love it so much! Everyone was super nice and the place looked very modern. Sarah styled my crazy curls and gave me a new fringe! Turned out to be super cute! I definitely recommend coming here. This will be my new salon from now on. So excited!!!! :) read more

Wonderful salon, Jenifer Martin is amazing. It is beautiful and the staff is wonderful. Thank you From Love Adoption. Sam read more

The reviews below are just plain silly. I am new to the area and a friend of mine had suggested I try Daniel Michael Salon. As soon as i walked in the staff was extremely attentive and helpful. The salon was clean and obviously very well managed. The receptionist offered one of their very best, Trevor Frykman to help me with a fresh cut and color change. He was amazing, and very easy on the eyes if i may say so. I left very happy and for amazing service, affordable prices and good looking people, you can bet i'll be back! read more

I have been going to Daniel Michael salon for the past 1 1/2 years. Cassandra has been doing my hair for the past 3 years now (I followed her here from another salon in Irvine) and she always does a great job. Cassandra has a passion for color and does it well. If your looking for a new stylist I would definitely give her a try. She listens to what you want and makes sure your happy with the finished product! read more

I had an outdoor appointment with Sarah for highlights & a haircut. She was SO thorough, friendly & fast (I told her I needed to be done quickly). Really grateful I found this place and Sarah! read more

I never usually write yelp reviews, but I had the most amazing experience here with Sarah. My hair was all dreaded and in knots (not purposely) and literally Sarah saved my hair. I honestly thought that I was going have to shave my hair. She had a great attitude over the endless hours on my hair over a course of 3 days to get them out. Then after she trimmed my hair and helped me figure out a cute cut to even it out and I am beyond thankful. She really cared about helping me as much as she could and the results were better than I could even imagine due to how it started of. I will definitely be going to see her for my hair on a regular basis. read more

Started going to Ryan after I got a bad haircut from a different salon. She has helped me so much to fix my old bad haircut. She is wonderful. The salon it self is clean and very professional. Highly recommend. read more

You need Krystal King as your stylist!! She's the best! She does amazing color and cuts! Krystal has great ideas to make you look your best and will always be honest with you. She also teaches a color class at the salon so you know she has to be an expert! Go see Krystal, you won't regret it!! read more

I moved to Southern California in the fall of 2008 and my first worry was how in the world will I ever find a stylist that I trust and adore as much as my stylist from back home? After my first cut with Lauren I was sold. She is the most professional, friendly and skilled stylist I have ever had the luck to meet and I always leave the salon feeling 100% satisfied. She is great about showing you different ways and options to style your hair (if you're in to variety, like I am) and has great suggestions. I would recommend Lauren to anyone--her talents are endless. She simply is the best at what she does and never dissapoints!!! read more

I have loyally followed Mucio Vidales for many years, much like I have followed my favorite sushi chef. I first discovered him at Christopher Perry Salon. I followed him to Vogue Salon at the St. Regis Hotel, and have gladly followed him to Daniel Michael Salon. Salons are only as good as their artists, and Mucio is a star. I've never worked with anyone so intuitive. I sit down and he knows what I want practically before I open my mouth. Most of all he listens. We have all had the experience of carefully explaining what we want to a stylist and then having them do the complete opposite. This will never happen with Mucio. He pays attention. And he has also saved me from bad choices also. He gets to know you and has suggestions ready when you sit down. He is a true professional. If he ever moves out of state, I might have to move too. read more

This place is the only place I will go to get my hair done. The staff are friendly and professional, and I have never had a bad experience. I get my hair cut and weaved regularly with Danny, who is a phenomenal stylist with a sincere and expert eye for what will really work for you, and the best colorist I've ever had. I've been a patron for six years now and I intend to be for many more. read more

Just left the salon, I was fortunate enough to have Danny, one of the owners, cut my hair. He was very professional and conversation was easy going and very informative. I'll definitely be going back again. read more

My 5 star review is for Trevor. I just got my hair done by him today, partial highlights, and I absolutely love it! He did a REALLY good job! Some might call him a perfectionist, he puts in the extra effort and time to make sure every strand is perfect, which I really appreciate. I already made an appointment to come back next month to get my hair done by him again. 5 stars, I highly recommend Trevor. Not to mention, he is so sweet and the conversation is great! read more

Danny has cut my hair for 10 years! I moved away from OC 8 years ago. I moved to the East Coast and would wait until i traveled back to OC to get my hair cut, i now live in NV and still wait to go and see Danny, i have tried different salons where i have lived, but nobody is as good as Dan. thanks guys read more

Danny has been taking care of me since 2000 when I moved to California. I have thick course strong wavy hair that was disabling me since the day I was born. Finding Danny conquered my challenge and I feel my hair always looks good and fits both casual and dressy occasions. Plus...his haircuts last forever if you get too busy to check in every few months. I was even spotted by Senior Editor Chris Christensen from Orange County magazine and chosen to pose/review for O.C.Style section December 2008 when she spotted me at a fundraiser and said I stood out at the occasion. Yes...the hair captured her first. I have been stopped many times and asked who does my hair...YES DANNY IT'S YOU!!! Let's face...hair matters! read more

Jarrod is the best hair stylist I have EVER had. I found him by chance at a previous salon and followed him when he moved here and would follow him anywhere. I have never had a stylist who truly is a master colorist along with caring about the health of my care. My hair has never been healthier or more beautiful. I am finally getting the length I want and he has gone with me from blonde, to red, to brown with highlights. I can not say enough about him. So kind, caring and knowledgeable. Thank you Jarrod for all you do! Love love love!! read more

My hair is super curly and was a mess but Trevor turned it around and did a great job. Really thoughtful work. I hope he and other workers who spend that kind of time and effort in their work are getting enough money to afford basic necessities to meet the insane rising cost of living in this country. read more

Jason Giras isn't just a hair stylist. He is an educator, an innovator, a straight-up synthesizer of style and image.

After writing my original review, Regina (one of the owners) immediately contacted me and addressed the situation. Now that is what I call excellent customer service! I appreciate how hands on the owners are. So if you're looking for the best in the business for your hair needs, make an appointment with Jacqui! read more

Wow! Hands down best men's haircut I've ever had from Trevor, definitely recommend this guy for someone who wants excellent care and wants an alternative to a Barbershop cut. Great atmosphere, and as a walk in I was taken care of pretty fast. I definitely will come back! Pricing was very reasonable based on the care provided. read more

I love this salon! It is fresh, hip and new inside. The staff is friendly and very knowledgable about the latest trends yet are willing to work with you on your ideas. Regina is magic with color especially if you are a blonde. She took the time to do several steps from tint roots to highlights to low lights throughout my hair making it look so natural and fabulous! My husband goes to Trevor for his haircut once a month too. This salon is as good as it gets! Two snaps! read more

I have been going to Daniel Michael Salon for years now, and I have had several different hair stylists. All were good except for Christina! She is the best!! Personable and great customer service. Did I mention they are in a new facility? Seriously check them out you won't be sorry. read more

I usually get a cut & color "elsewhere", but after complaining about the color & cut a day or 2 after it was done I decided to try this salon. Christine looked at my hair & decided to add a bit of lighter brown highlights all over then do my color. It just looked so good when she finished (even my husband complimented me) I had to came back a 2nd time! A good cut/color is not cheap but that old saying you get what you pay for is really true! I'm a very happy customer! read more

I finally found a great stylist ( TREVOR) who cut my hair & also gave me an experience that I truly enjoyed. This is the first time that I wasn't rushed out of a salon. He took his time to make sure that I got the best cut for my lifestyle and I have never been happier. I'm over 60, but still like to try and be current with todays look. This is the first time that I had someone explain the products that he used on my hair so that would get look I want after I left the salon. This is a new experience for me and already made future appointments. Give him a try I think you agree. read more

I have an amazing hair dresser Jason!!!! My hair is not easy to work on, its very thick, hard to dry and very time consuming. However there is no doubt that Jason knows his job. Every time I come to see him I look like a hot mess. However when Jason is done doing his magic, I leave the salon looking like a beauty. After Jason gets done working his magic on my hair there isn't a person who doesn't tell me, you have amazing hair. So if you're looking for a creative, hip, young, talented stylist call Daniel Michel salon and book yourself an amazing experience. The salon is a five star place starting from the receptionist who welcomes you with a smiling warm hello, offering to make you comfortable with a nice coffee and Jason's talent that make you feel amazing!!! You will never regret your experience. Highly recommend!!! read more

I have been seeing Jarrod for several years and followed him to Daniel Michael's. I would honestly follow him anywhere. I've seen A LOT of colorists over the year's, who claim to be "Master Colorists", but Jarrod is the only one of the bunch who is truly the "Master". He is extremely knowledgeable, professional, warm and welcoming. I've never had a bad experience with my hair, and trust him completely. read more

Lauren is the best! Literally! I am from the East Coast and found her a few years ago through an online review. I have since followed her to DMS and she is the ONLY one who cuts my hair (despite that 6hr flight across the country). Some are true artists in their chosen discipline and she is one of those people. Her styling is amazing. read more

I'm thrilled that there's an outlet for me to express my appreciation to Danny, my stylist of over twenty years. His dedication to continuing his education in terms of what is cutting edge with new trends and styles, his absolute skill as a colorist, and his attention to service have all been his unfailing trademarks. His staff, from stylists to reception, exhibits the same enthusiasm and passion as Danny passes on through mentoring the same skills and methods that make this place so top notch and service oriented. I highly recommend checking Daniel Michael Salon out, whether you make an appointment with Danny or another stylist. You will be delighted with the experience and thrilled with the results. read more

I have been coming here for over 6 years and the service is top notch. I love my stylist Lauren, she is amazing! High quality product, knowledge stylist, and a cool vibe. I love that they offer beverages and give massages when getting shampooed. I would recommend this salon to anyone looking for a change. read more

Wouldn't go anywhere else!! I have been coming here for atleast 20 years and I can't say anything but wonderful things about the team at this salon! They are nice, helpful, and very attentive to your needs! I get my hair done by Danny and he always has the latest and greatest on styles and trends! They also have a huge selection of hair products to fit anyone's needs! read more

To be honest, I've always had a hard time finding a stylist I like... It takes a combination of talent and personality to get me comfortable enough to really explain what I'm looking for and get to the point where I can even experiment. I can definitively say that I have found that in Adam Palmer. He gave me so much insight into haircare and styling, it completely changed my understanding. He was patient enough to hear everything I had to say, and got me to expand the idea I had, until I was more than satisfied with what I ended up with. What a relief! It was my first time to Daniel Michael Salon, so I don't know how the other stylists compare, but I will definitely be sticking with him from now on. Thanks, Adam! read more

I've been going to this salon for years! Over the years I've had plenty of different stylists but they are all friendly, professional, and great at what they do. It's a little on the pricey side, but I enjoy coming to this salon because I know I'm getting my monies worth. They're highly trained and always have great advice. read more
