Absolutely loved my first experience at Exhibit M and Mya was amazing! I did the reset to clarity and it was sooo relaxing and much needed after an intense term at school. Will be booking again, highly recommend! read more

I got my hair styled here and my girlfriend hasn't stopped complimenting me on my new look! From consultation, to cut, style, and care, they took great care of me and looked out for my lifestyle and hair needs. The space is modern, yet down to earth, with designs that encompass nature and growth. A great place to look and feel refreshed! Would highly recommend! read more

Thank you to Eric for my 5-star experience with his "Reset to clarity" headspa service! The whole experience was so wonderfully curated from the very beginning to the very end. Customer service was top notch from the moment you walk in, and you can really tell every detail of this establishment has been so wonderfully thought out by the salon owners. (Even loved the subtle lychee fragrance in the restroom ;) Indulge yourself to an amazing headspa experience- Eric will explain everything every step of the way! & it is complete with before & after photos of your scalp and of course includes a blow dry service in case you were wondering! read more

I went in for the "reset to clarity" head spa treatment. I was not sure what to expect going in, but it was AMAZING. Mya really took the time to explain the process, analyze my scalp and answer all my questions. After the treatment, my head felt so light. It's been 2 days and it still feels great. Highly recommend! read more

I've been going to Annie for haircuts for a while before she moved to this location, and I can't say enough good things about her! She always knows exactly what to do with my hair, whether I need just a trim or a full cut. She's super easy to talk to and makes the whole experience enjoyable. She also does amazing eyebrow waxing if you are looking to get that service done as well, she is someone to trust with them. The location itself is well kept and very relax, I got to meet the owner and was very nice as well! If you're looking for someone who's skilled, friendly, and truly cares about her clients, Annie is the one to see. Highly recommended! read more

I loved my experience at Exhibit M!! Beautiful, relaxing environment! Eric was patient and thorough as he explained my Reset procedure and answered all of my questions. I was so relaxed I wanted to fall asleep! Highly highly recommend! read more

Had an awesome experience with Eric. My hair feels incredible, and they gave me great tips on how to care for it at home. Friendly staff, relaxing atmosphere--highly recommend! read more

What a lovely treat! I was able to get a reset to clarity head spa treatment complimentary as a service they were offering to new clients. It was my first time ever getting a head spa treatment (I had been holding off bc they're expensive!) and now I know they are worth every penny! The scan was cool to be able to see the follicles close up before and after and really see (not just feel) the cleansing effects. Not to mention the experience itself was so incredibly relaxing, it is a very pampering moment with benefits inside and out. I've booked a haircut for the near future so I can't wait for that experience as well! Also, I don't have a picture but it's a very nicely decorated, clean and modern space and I had no trouble finding parking in the plaza. read more

My girlfriend says this place gives me a +5 handsome boost. The team at exhibit M have a fantastic space and lovely stylists. They're professional and provide an elevated experienced leaving you looking and feeling clean. The service is worth every penny and I'm already excited to book my next appointment. BOOK AN APPOINTMENT ASAP! You won't regret it. Shout out to Char. read more

I highly recommend booking an appointment here with Char. Before Char, I was simply following whatever hair trend was in style. After my first cut with him, he taught me so much about my hair and inspired a lot of confidence for me to take the leap and grow my hair out. With each subsequent visit, I was able to learn more about the unique characteristics of my hair. Char was able to ease the process of growing out long hair while always considering my lifestyle and personal influences! Char is extremely passionate about what he does and will go above and beyond to take care of you. Do yourself a favor and book an appointment ASAP! read more

I went to exhibit M to try the clarity head spa for some relaxation. The service was amazing from beginning to the end. Felix welcomed me from the front and he was so friendly and helpful! He gave me a tour of the salon. It was so beautiful! Erik was my head spa therapist, and he was wonderful! First, he helped me analyze my scalp with the machine. I love it and I will come back ! read more

I've been in search of a new go-to hairstylist and my research led me to exhibit M. This place attracted me thanks to easy booking through their website and multiple glowing reviews. (Big shoutout to Yelp and Reddit!) They are a hair salon that also offers head spas and I adore the vibe of their decor. Lots of green plants and a lush woodland vibe! I booked an exhibit length cut and scalp renew. Exhibit length is for hair shoulder length or longer. The scalp renew was very nice and my hair smelled incredible afterwards, though it's not something I would personally seek out every time. I got my hair cut by Annie, and she is absolutely incredible! She was very kind and I genuinely enjoyed our conversations. Annie is a thoughtful stylist who listened patiently to all my hair concerns. She communicated well and trimmed my bangs to my exact preference. I look forward to coming back! read more

Took a chance and tried this salon through their promo for a free women's haircut with Annie and I was blown away by the outcome! I described what I wanted and what I disliked and she made my visions come true! Highly recommend! read more

See all

I was gifted a "reset to clarity" experience, and it was WONDERFUL. Eric was very kind and knowledgeable, answering my questions. It was so cool to learn about scalp health, and the whole experience was relaxing and regenerating. It consisted of an up-close picture and analysis of my scalp, a shampoo/conditioner, and even a scalp and shoulder massage! As a busy mom of two little boys, this was a great way to spend an hour for self-care. The salon itself is beautiful with tasteful decor, and you are greeted with a lovely scent of herbal freshness when you walk in the door. Definitely recommend! read more

My first visit to Exhibit M was for a haircut with Annie, and I absolutely loved it! It's nothing like what I got in Japan, but definitely better than all the salons I've tried in the US. I even recommended the salon to my aunt. Yesterday, I came back for a Reset to Clarity Head Spa with Eric and he was amazing. The salon is clean, inviting, and has such a relaxing, calming vibe. Going there truly feels like a form of self care. They are very gentle with your hair and really treat it like it's your crowning glory. The prices are reasonable, and I love that they offer promotions, making self care more accessible. The team really listens to what you want. The head spa experience was incredibly thorough. They even do a scalp analysis, which I haven't seen at any other head spa. I will definitely go back. Highly recommend! read more

I had an incredible experience at Exhibit M. From the moment I walked in, the staff was friendly and professional. The studio was wonderful and gorgeous. I chose the Reset to Clarity. First, Mya brought me into a private room - it was calming with soft music and dim lights. She then examined my scalp and OMG...I didn't realize how much residue I have on my scalp! She explained to me in details about what's considered good/bad scalp and how to improve it. The head spa with head/neck/shoulder massages was really relaxing - I was in cloud nine and didn't want it to end. It was a perfect way to end a long working day. After the spa, she showed me the before and after pictures - it was so much better! It was such a great experience that I bought two more sessions. I can't recommend this place enough for anyone looking to pamper themselves or address scalp concerns. I'm looking forward to my next visit. read more

I had my first ever 30 min head massage today with Mya. Everything was fabulous from the moment I walked in. I was greeted by Felix, who was so friendly and welcoming. And then Mya took me back and started with an examination of my existing scalp condition using this small microscope device to get closeup pictures of your scalp. It was fascinating to see my scalp so zoomed in. Mya is great at explaining and showing you what a healthy scalp looks like and where yours might need a little extra care. The head massage portion of the visit was so relaxing I'm pretty sure I fell asleep for a few min. I won't go into the details of what happens during it bc Jasmine's review explains it all really well. :) I can't wait to go back and try the 75 min version next time! Thank you, Mya!! read more

I've been going to Char at Exhibit M for years and he's hands down the best barber I've ever had. Not only is he extremely professional but he's also incredibly knowledgeable when it comes to hair products, styles, and treatments. He always takes the time to recommend the best options for my hair and pays close attention to every detail. He truly takes care of you. On top of that our conversations are always something I look forward to which makes every visit even better. Recently I tried out the head spa treatment with Mya and it was amazing, like a soothing relaxing head massage that almost puts you to sleep. The scalp analysis before and after the treatment was impressive and showed just how much expertise goes into what they do. As a long time member I can confidently say the monthly membership is absolutely worth it. Huge shoutout to Char, Mya, and the rest of the Exhibit M crew. They've created something special here. Highly recommend! read more

Came here for a head spa last 2 weeks from Mya. The best head spa massage ever . Today getting my hair dyed & trimmed by Annie. This place will be my forever to go to when it comes to hair care & head spa. Thank you ladies for your talent skills . Plus very beautiful & relaxing salon. read more

exhibit M - I love how Annie trimmed & layered my hair. So soft & pretty just how I like it - Day Spas Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

tucked away in a plaza near South Coast Plaza, this head spa and salon is a must stop if you're looking to refresh yourself! environment - you're immediately greeted by their friendly staff when you step in, and was offered sparkling or still water while waiting. taking in the atmosphere, everything feels relaxed, warm, and almost alive + breathing with the greenery and plants throughout. service [cut + face renew] - char is energetic, very knowledgeable, and professional! he consults with you at the start of the cut to understand your style preferences + routine and walks through what he'll do to achieve your look for before doing anything. he puts tons of care and detail in his movement. as he washed out my hair post-cut, it seamlessly transitioned into the face renew, which consisted of a facial toner + steamed and cold towel face wrap--a great and relaxing way to end the cut if you ask me. as the ritual concludes, char shared recommendations to continue achieving the look until the next cut. overall - this salon brings something new to what a "salon" is. it provides the same quality service you expect of one, and introduces new enhancements and rituals to your self-care routine. i would highly recommend--either it be you're looking for a new salon/stylist, or a refresh + pamper after a stressful week, treat yourself and check exhibit M out. read more

First impressions: The moment you walk in through the doors, you feel this calming sensation of being grounded... as if you're in a peaceful garden.

Amazing environment and vibe. The hair stylists are all very friendly and very skilled. Would recommend to anyone.

I cannot speak more highly of an establishment. For years I struggled with my hair from styling to maintenance. It wasn't until I first met Char, that I began to understand my own style. Every visit begins with a consultation; What do you like about your hair, how do you normally style it, and what are some areas that need more attention? The whole staff is well versed on different hair types and styles and helped me achieve my ideal look. I have been going to exhibit M since they have opened and I believe it is very well worth the first visit! read more

As soon as you walk In, we were immediately welcomed with a soothing ambience :) Plenty of room to lounge and relax, refreshments, and relaxing music. The haircut itself was very intentional! Char helped us out and did an amazing job. No knicks or scratches, and he took a lot of time making sure we were all satisfied with how It looks. From the looks of It you can tell he loves what he does and I recommend getting your next hair cut with him and at exhibit M read more

Very clean and beautiful new salon and spa. Service was impeccable and my head spa service with Erick was amazing! Thank you Exhibit M!!! Can't wait to be back! read more

Had a reset + clarity head spa with Mya - loved it! I'd been to a head spa once before but hadn't been impressed. This visit with Mya changed my mind (and scalp) for the better. It was fun to see the before and after of my scalp, and the different oils (rosemary mint smelled so good!) that I could chose from and hearing they made it themselves. The herbal tea (for my head, I thought I could drink it at first lol) was a nice touch, too. Especially loved the massage parts and wished she did full body massage too! read more

Got the chance to have my scalp analyzed this past weekend by Mya. I was able to see all my problem areas with a microscope and learn what to focus on when I do my at home hair care routine. Such a welcoming staff and relaxing atmosphere to add to that. Can't wait for my next return read more

My experience here was immaculate from beginning to end. I was warmly greeted by Felix who offered me bottled sparkling water. The waiting area is open and airy with lots of natural light and comfortable seating. I was then taken back for my head spa treatment with Mya who was very skilled, knowledgeable, and professional. She answered all of my questions patiently and thoroughly during the personalized scalp analysis. I left feeling calm, relaxed, and ready to take on the world again. :) Would highly recommend this place to all! read more

I've been coming to exhibit M since opening and have always had a great experience. Char is wonderfully skilled and incredibly knowledgeable when it comes to hair, scalp, and skin treatment. Everyone is accommodating, friendly, and makes me feel very comfortable every visit. read more

Had a lovely experience with the reset to clarity service. The staff were so welcoming and knowledgeable - you can tell they really care about quality of the service they are providing. It was interesting to see the before (yikes) and after of my scalp, and the treatment itself was relaxing and luxurious. I highly recommend Exhibit M. Thank you to Felix and Mya! read more

My daughter and I went for the Reset to Clarity scalp treatment. We were taken care of by Mya & Eric, and we couldn't have had a better experience. We were shown close up photos of our scalps and learned so much information about how to get our scalps healthy. The space was beautiful and the treatment was great! A much needed relaxation reset. Highly recommend! read more

Charles is incredible at cutting curly hair and extremely knowledgeable. He took the time to teach me what my dry curly hair needed to be less frizzy and worked with me to determine what hair style I was hoping to have, and how we would need to cut it now towards that goal. He gave me the best haircut of my life and knowledge on how to style it properly. I'll definitely be back here for my next cut read more

I've been going to Annie for haircuts for a while now, ever since she was at her old spot, and I happily followed her to Exhibit M. The new place is fantastic--really sharp interior design and a warm, welcoming feel that makes you want to stick around. Annie's as great as ever. She's super detailed with every cut, always getting it just right. Her skill and expertise are why I keep coming back. Exhibit M and Annie are a winning combo--definitely worth a visit! read more

He really pays attention to problem areas and makes sure you're comfortable the whole time!! Ty Char read more

Absolutely the best haircut I've ever had! Char was the one that cut my hair and he exceeded my expectations. First you go through a hair consultation which is already a good sign that they truly care for each customer. He understood how my hair is and worked his magic. The entire place is aesthetically pleasing, really clean, and smells amazing. Felt like I was in a luxury L.A hotel lobby. Shoutout to Char again I'm super happy with how my cut turned out and will be coming back every time I need a cut! read more
