Mikki is incredible and a miracle worker. I went to a salon that messed up my hair so bad. The color was completely wrong and damaged my hair. I was feeling so discouraged because my sons wedding is just a few weeks away. Mikki put me at ease and I knew she would make it fabulous again. In just a few hours my hair was transformed and is absolutely beautiful. Not only is Mikki and amazing stylist and color expert but she is also an amazing person and friend. She has a heart of gold and I feel truly blessed to have met her. Thank you Mikki for everything read more

I'm transitioning to gray/silver and Mikki was so supportive of my decision, unlike other hairdressers who push you to continue dying it. She did a gloss and styled it beautifully. I like that her products are high quality and vegan. It's also nice seeing her and having a good conversation. Highly recommend! Thank you, Mikki! read more

Point blank - Mikki is the BEST! I have been getting my hair done by Mikki for the last 6 years - since moving to OC and have followed her 3 times now. She is most definitely amazing with color and just a hair magician. In the 6 years that I've worked with Mikki, I have had long hair, short hair, bobs, brunette coloring, blond coloring...you name it and we have done it. I usually come in with a vision and she brings it to life. Not only that but Mikki is also experienced with all kinds of hair! I have really thin hair and she always manages to give me volume and make me look like a hair model - for real! We also never fail to have fun conversations about our families, travel, future plans, you name it! I love her spirit and her soul. You don't often meet people who are both amazing at what they do and are amazing to be around. SO! If you are looking for a luxury hair experience with a true Expert this is the place for you. I'm excited that Mikki is now closer to me, but I would travel to see her :)! Adding some of my looks over the years and yesterday's amazing transformation! read more

Exquisite Artistry by Mikki - Hair Stylists Near Me

If there were 10 stars I'd give them all! My hair was becoming so high maintenance from having to cover the gray, then highlight to be the blonde I've been forever. The more gray that came in, the more often I had to cover but, the base was either too dark or washed out to a brassy blonde, which is not flattering on anyone. Mikki invented a technique that blends your gray with highlights, into a beautiful blonde without having to cover, then you only need to maintain it every 3 months! She's brilliant. And as a human being, I feel honored to know her, she's a real one, with a heart that matches her incredible talent. read more

Just had my third session with Mikki and I am absolutely loving my new platinum icy blonde. Mikki does not turn and burn, she is a PROFESSIONAL. She has taken her time over the last 8 months to get me to my dream blonde, while still maintaining the integrity of my hair. As a naturally very dark brunette, I couldn't be happier. I highly recommend Mikki for all your hair care needs. She will walk you through what is possible for your hair condition, color, texture and advise on what products to use to support the health of your hair (caring for bleached hair is a full-time job y'all). Best of all Mikki has the greatest and most genuine personality. She does not disappoint! read more

Mikki is professional and knows what she is doing. After waiting over a year to get my hair done due to damage, she made me feel comfortable and did an excellent job. read more

So happy to be a client of Exquisite Artistry By Mikki. I love bleach and not everyone knows how to handle it properly, but Mikki is in fact an artist. I have learned so much about my hair and how to properly care for it, and the importance of quality products and a proven, skilled cosmetologist. She has set me up on a path to healthier and stronger hair, but also understands how important my length is to me. She provided some amazing new products to help conceal and tame some of the damage, along with regular trims, while we let it grow out. It already looks a lot better and though there is still damage from my previous stylist, I'm hopeful. I can see the goal and that's everything, because before sitting in her chair, I thought I would have to do a biiiig chop. But she poured her knowledge into me and I followed instructions for over a year. Finally I was able to address my roots. My hair is naturally dark brown and Mikki was able to lift me to a very light shade of blonde, without heat, and my newly highlighted hair still feels healthy and strong. This is a whole new experience for me. Magic even. Mikki is smart, straightforward, and funny and so enjoyable to share space with. It's important to have a stylist you can trust. It's even better when they become your friend. read more

Literally my favorite blonde specialist!!! I'm so blessed to have found her it was a miracle. After years of bleaching and damage Mikki is the most honest and I trust her fully with my hair and after so many bad experiences post color I have trust issues.. I recommend beyond anything and not to mention appointment with Mikki go by so fast because she's not only a stylist and pro but she's your girl. I love Mikki!!! read more

Exquisite Artistry by Mikki - Reverse highlight and color correction - Hair Stylists Near Me

This is one of the only times I'll ever publish a Yelp review, and it's because Mikki does magic. This is the first time I've had even, non-patchy blonde hair without any banding. Mikki was honest and upfront about the state of my hair and my options which I greatly appreciated. We had to cut off a good portion of my hair because it was so fried and absolutely beyond saving, but it was 100% a necessary sacrifice. Mikki also worked with me endlessly to achieve an end result we would both be happy with. She is the most communicative, honest, and accommodating hairstylist I have ever been to. I've never left a hair salon feeling so happy. I can't wait for my next appointment! read more

First time client here. Not only do I feel like I gained a friend today but she did a kick ass job on my hair.

I was under the impression that going full gray would age me but honestly after leaving the salon, I feel younger. 10 out of 10. Book your appointment with Mikki! read more

Extra Virgin, never touched, extremely long, curly girl hair!!! To BLOND BLOND!!! In one session! My hair is bouncy, full, and healthy. I came to Mikki with doubts, scared, and untrusting of anyone touching my beloved long curls. I don't even use a hair dryer, and I have never dyed my hair. After calling a few hair stylists, I came upon the wonderful and honest mikki, and I felt at peace immediately. She answered all of my questions. For DAYS! And she was patient and extremely informative. I must have asked the most basic questions, but she was so patient with me. I had to wait a bit to see her, but I was so glad to do it. I never contemplated going anywhere els. Mikki knew my number one worry was to keep my hair as healthy as possible. Even if I. Opulent go too blond, I wanted above all the keep my hairs integrity as much as possible. The outcome I could have never dreamt! She gave me blond blond blond hair!!!! I lost almost no hair in the process, I usually lose more in the shower wet detangling. So I was so happy to see she really gave me what other stylists said wasn't possible. Going from deep dark brown almost black hair to blond in one session with almost no damage, hair gods have blessed those hands. Thank you again, and I'm so excited and honored to say "Mikki my colorist"! read more

Mikki is an amazing person and truly an artist. She is incredibly honest and full of integrity. I saw her first last year looking specifically for an Aveda and/or Oligo color specialist when my hair started showing severe signs of damage. She has significant experience with both, knows how to manage damaged delicate hair, and coached me along for a year. She managed my cuts and healing process, and I am now on my way to getting highlights again. Her blending and babylights are perfect and she is such a kind person to work with. After just 2 visits post healing I got the shade of blonde I have been wanting for a very long time. My hair pulls super warm and she works magic! Truly talented and the best. read more

Well, what can i say about this place? Definitely nothing negative thats for sure. I took a chance and booked an appointment for my mom to get her hair colored because no woman likes to have her gray hairs showing unless you're into that trend. My mom had nothing but a great time and the service was phenomenal! First class service and she (my mom) said Mikki made her feel more beautiful than she had felt in years! Which definitely speaks volumes! She was greeted with a warm welcome then was offered a glass of champagne. I mean damn! Complimentary champagne! You know Mikki pulling out nothing but the best for her clients! When I arrived to pick my mom up, they were chatting and my mom had the biggest smile on her face. That alone was worth everything! I highly recommend it if you need a HAiR DOCTOR! Mikki saw my ends and said I definitely needed a trim those atrocious things. So, I made an appointment for myself and well damn!!! Wasn't expecting the level of service I received! Let's just say now I know why ladies go to a salon! Champagne! Is a plus but damn that shampoo and scalp massage had me feeling and relax, is probably the best way to describe it. She then proceeded to dry my hair and by that time I could already tell the difference! I believe she said that I got that Snoop Dogg Silky Press I'll take that compliment. She finished off with two braids and I really feel like a G! All in all, it's way better than those big ass chain salons since she caters to you and focuses only on you. As these kids now a days say, Mikki and her salon is "f*cking Lit!" read more

I recently moved to Irvine and was looking for someone who could color and cut my curly hair. I have had too many bad haircuts, and with curly hair, it is so noticeable. And also with black hair and adding blonde highlights, too many times it has looked brassy instead of the caramel color I desired. What I love about Mikki is how she really listened to what color I was looking for, she considered the complexion of my skin tone, and talked me through how she was going to do my highlights and cut. It was a heartfelt session with an amazing person. We talked, laughed, shared life advice , and I walked out with the most amazing hair I have had in a long time. She made me feel so good about how I looked. If I could give her 10 stars I would. I already have my next session booked as I have found my hair girl in Irvine! read more

Where do I start!! Nikki is the best hands down! She blessed my head with her hands and talent in 3hrs! Never have I ever felt so comfortable and confident in my stylist. I have been coloring my hair in I was 12 and I was always told my hair is "too hard to lift", or "your hair is too stubborn". Today was the first time I ever heard my hair was east lift! She deleiveered exactly what I asked which was"can you get my hair as light as you can without damaging it". Nikki used all vegan products, which you can defiantly feel the quality on you scalp. My scalp did not burn or itch a bitch durning the process which speaks volumes because I have scalp psoriasis. You get what you pay for and that is quality and confidence knowing Mikki has perfected her craft! Please not that I have natural curly hair and this was not a issuer to her. She still transformed my beast without sweat. read more
