[[HIGHLIGHT]]I had such a great experience with Jess at Dean Anthony Hair Salon today![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My first time with this salon. t had been about a year and four months since my last highlights, so I was definitely overdue. I came in wanting a fresh honey-toned look, and Jess absolutely delivered. She was incredibly patient, really took the time to understand what I wanted, and helped me choose a color combination that turned out even better than I imagined. You can tell she truly knows what she's doing and cares about her clients feeling confident and happy. [[HIGHLIGHT]]On top of that, she's just so kind and easy to talk to, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I walked out feeling like a whole new person. Highly recommend Jess if you're looking for highlights or a color refresh! read more

This was my second time going to Dean Anthony Salon, and I can honestly say it was the best haircut I've ever had! I've seen Veronica before, and for my most recent visit I had Becky--both were amazing. When I saw Veronica, I got a partial balayage and it turned out so beautiful. She blended the highlights seamlessly with my natural color, and it looked super natural and dimensional. It grew out really nicely too, which I loved. I have long, thick hair, which can be hard to manage, so it's not easy finding someone who can cut it straight and really take good care of it. But Dean Anthony Salon consistently does a great job! Becky paid such close attention to detail and absolutely nailed both the cut and the styling. My hair feels so healthy and looks exactly how I wanted. I'll definitely be coming back again! The vibe of the salon is also amazing--very classy and chic. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted warmly and even offered drinks, which makes the whole experience feel elevated and relaxing. It really adds to the overall luxury feel of the place. read more

I contemplated this review for months now. I had a bad experience at this salon. I have curly hair, and at the time of haircut it was 12+ inches long. Literally my first haircut in about 4 years. But I wanted to go short, a little shorter than shoulder length + with bangs. So upon making the appointment, we asked for someone with experience working with curly hair. We were told that every stylist has 10+ years of experience, and we were given an appointment with a stylist (I'm blanking on her name right now). At the appointment, I showed the inspo pics and repeatedly asked "do you have experience cutting curly hair?" And she told me something along the lines of "oh yeah I've been cutting hair for years" (this went off as a red flag for me idk). She cut off about 12in length at my request, and everything was downhill from there. After the botching, she washed my hair and barely styled it (curly-haired people know how much it takes to style it). And didn't even fully dry it. I left the salon looking like a knockoff Inigo Montoya. The stylist herself was extremely nice and easy to talk to, but it's an unfortunate situation where being nice isn't the service requested, nor the service being paid (a pretty penny btw) for. I literally cried to my family about how embarrassing it looked, couldn't even take pictures of myself. I had curly MICROBANGS. And some strands were so uneven to the area next to them (like I literally had a group of hairs that were almost an inch shorter than the group surrounding it in the section). Girl--be serious. Thank god it's grown out a bit now. Besides the botched hair, I'm so peeved that for the cost, I walked out with unstyled and still wet hair. Bffr. I seriously think this stylist does not have sufficient experience with curly hair. Rating 1 star solely on the haircut + no style or dry. The customer experience is nice. But this is a hair salon, and I'm rating based off my hair. read more

Had a great experience getting a haircut with Veronica! She fixed a previous haircut that I got at another salon that I didn't like, and gave me lots of advice and hair care tips for my hair type. Would definitely come here again! read more

I had my first haircut today with Michelle W. and I am beyond thrilled with the job she did on my hair!! She took the time to really understand what I was looking for. She asked all the right questions to ensure I got the exact cut and style I wanted. I walked out knowing my hair looks amazing! Happy does not begin to describe how I feel after getting this cut done! Thank you so much Michelle for taking complete care of everything I asked for and doing a better job than I could have imagined! read more

I like coming to this salon. It's such a vibe. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Every time I've visited this place it has been positive never a negative reaction from ANY of the staff.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I first came here about 2 years ago and I was introduced to Baky. She is the bomb. I love her positivity that just radiates from her, so sweet and easy to talk to.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I am such a picky person with color, I hesitate every time I try a new stylist but she did such a nice job. [[HIGHLIGHT]]She takes the time to consult you and really cares about what you want and gives good honest feedback on what will be good for you and your locks.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I started with a hair cut and roots in my previous appointments, hadn't been back in such a long time and decided I wanted some highlights but still staying brunette as well. I feel so good about my hair, all day I've felt like a new person after months of feeling down about myself. And my hair is not fried! If you're looking for an exclusive luxury feel and high professionalism and boost in confidence I'd recommend booking an appointment. [[HIGHLIGHT]]So happy I chose to come back and visit baky for a day of pampering myself.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Always positive experiences at the Dean Anthony Salon.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] For years, I've come regularly for cuts and toners/glosses. Last week, I had a balayage gone wrong from a different salon. Veronica took me in immediately, then not only fixed the color but also exactly nailed it to my original inspo pic. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I feel so much more confident.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Veronica also educated me on treatments of how to repair my hair from the damages. I've been following her steps and it actually works; now my hair feels great, more hydrated, smooth, and shiny. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I could not be more THANKFUL for Veronica. She is an absolute expert at her craft.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]The whole experience was great from the moment I walked in the door.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Everyone on the Dean Anthony team is friendly and knowledgeable[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] and Michelle is unbelievably talented - both with color and cuts. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I always look forward to going there![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Love my stylist. Loved my cut.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] But adding a petty 3% surcharge to use my credit card at Dean Anthony Salon? Ridiculous. That type of petty makes my type of petty want to go elsewhere. Are you going to add a surcharge if my stylist shampoos me or a fee to spritz with hairspray next? The Dean Anthony surcharge cost me $5.12 today. But it communicated so much about whether or not I'm valued as a client. With that I will flip my gorgeously styled locks and look for a new place to pamper that will accept my credit card with kindness. read more

Brooklyn did such an amazing job on my daughters hair! She really listened to what she wanted and absolutely nailed it. She took her time paying attention to detail and it came out amazing.

It feels luxurious but still welcoming. Make sure to check out the crazy cool owl wall in the back!!! Definitely recommend this salon if you're looking for great hair and an amazing overall experience! read more

Megan is amazing, the best blow dry I have ever had. The entire salon is professional and beautiful. I highly recommend all services here.

If you're looking for someone who really gets color and knows how to make curls shine, Michelle is the one. In the past my color always turned brassy, but she really understood the chemistry of my hair and chose a color and toner that worked perfectly with it. read more

I was new to the area and completely afraid of trying someone new . I have had a variety of services with Veronica- from Bleach to root touch up and even a few extensions thrown in . Never disappointed, always on time and so friendly . Price is very reasonable , I have noticed they cater to all age ranges . Super clean Esthetic. read more

I've been in long beach for over 2 years now and had a hard time finding the right hairdresser. I decided to try Dean Anthony and definitely feel like a hit a homerun. [[HIGHLIGHT]]From just entering the establishment I knew I was in the right place. Front desk was so nice, offered me something to drink and let me know my hairdresser Kathryn would be with me shortly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Kathlyn was wonderful and listened to me and what I had envisioned with my hair. She used her expertise and gave me a great haircut. Dean Anthony is a perfect place for a men's haircut. Already booked my next appointment! read more

I almost don't want to share my stylist name because it's already hard to book her but Jess is truly the BEST! She is honest and has a way with understanding your vision even if you don't know how to explain it. Such a kind beautiful person. I have been coming to her for years now. And honestly all the people I've interacted with at Dean Anthony are super sweet and cool people. Seems like a great work environment from my perspective. So much talent and good vibes! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Megan was excellent , patient and kind[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I was new to her and I'm sure not easy![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I did have a picture of a thought, and together we figured it out[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I had a disappointing experience here with Michelle W, before my appointment, I clearly explained my hair type over the phone dark curly hair (receptionist) and was told it wouldn't be an issue. However, when I arrived, it felt like the stylist was either uncomfortable or didn't have the experience to work with my hair. Instead of being upfront, I was told there wasn't enough time, which came across as dismissive given the prior conversation. I was completely open to suggestions and flexible, so the situation felt frustrating and honestly a bit offensive. I think it's important for salons to be transparent about their experience with different hair types so clients don't feel turned away or unwelcome. Clients deserve honesty and respect--if certain hair types aren't within your expertise. Also if you take 50 percent of cancelled appt then what do you give me back for my wasted time? read more

I had such a great first experience here! From the very beginning, everything felt welcoming and easy. I actually made a scheduling mistake and missed my original appointment, but they were so understanding and accommodating. They found an opening for me at their 2nd Street location and were incredibly gracious about the mix-up, which I really appreciated. The entire staff was friendly and helpful--especially when it came to navigating parking (which, as you probably know, can be a challenge on 2nd Street!). That extra level of care made a big difference. Brook did my hair and was amazing. She really knows how to work with long hair and gave me beautiful, well-blended long layers. I left feeling so happy with my haircut. Overall, a fantastic experience. I'll definitely be back in April for a keratin service! read more

I've been going to Jenny for over 7 years. After being referred to Dean Anthony by a couple of family members, I eventually found my way into her chair. Jenny is amazing at what she does, I tell her every visit that I trust her completely. From balayage to cutting my hair with a razor, I know that no matter what era of hair I'm in, she will make it look beautiful. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so here's 10,000 more. read more

If I could give zero stars, I would. This salon and its academy feel very unprofessional. I had a color consultation and haircut appointment scheduled, but it was canceled even though I arrived 30 minutes early. Thankfully, one stylist, Veronica, was kind enough to offer me her free consultation after noticing how upset I was. However, when I tried to book an appointment with her, the mean staff and cruel manager refused, said she was not allowed to give you consultation more than 15 minutes. I noticed it and disagreed, then Michelle, the owner, punished me to never come back!! Based on my very special experience, I would not recommend booking with Levels 1-4 at all at this salon. No basic skills up to level 5 was seen. I would call their level 5 as level 1. The manager, Michelle, came across as disrespectful toward both stylists and new clients, and overall the environment felt more focused on money than customer care. read more

Megan gave me the best haircut, highlights and covered my grays. She took her time and gave me advice on what she thought was best for my hair/coloring. It's by far the best hair cut & highlights I've had in a very long time! Thank you Megan! read more

Girls with bangs: watch out. I was looking forward to getting my hair cut for the holidays, and set up an appointment with Baky. For reference, I have two long bangs that frame my face. Baky told me one of them was shorter than the other, and asked if I would like to make them the same length. I responded yes. A few days later after washing my hair, I realized my shorter bang had been cut much shorter, to the point where people started noticing and telling me. I have had multiple friends and family ask where I got my hair cut as a result, and it is getting embarrassing. Additionally, I have noticed my hair is much thinner on the ends than it has ever been. I had had to meet with my dermatologist as a result and purchase daily supplements to help my hair regrow. I reached out through email to the salon, and have attached their response. I'm also attaching the three photos I sent them of my hair as they repeatedly said they could not see what was wrong in my photos. One photo is of my natural hair, one is with my natural hair and the bangs isolated in front, and one is with my hair straightened. It is very obvious that the hair is cut incorrectly. The salon has refused to admit their mistake and has refused to issue a refund. I am disappointed as I have had an unsatisfactory haircut in the past, but they graciously apologized and issued a refund. read more
