It was well decorated and felt like a "proper salon" whatever that means. But it's just a vibe I wanted to write about. SERVICE: Everyone was very friendly. I checked in and had a seat and although I was early I was taken in quickly. Sammie (sp) was doing my hair and she was friendly. She me if I wanted water with ice (I did lol). It was just all around clearly good at handling my hair. I have found some hair stylists did struggle with my thicker South Asian hair but she was good. Clearly has the experience. Also apparently she does make-up too. PRICE: for my haircut and blowout was $60 without the tip. The tips must be paid in cash I believe. PARKING: behind the building. And on Saturdays this place is very close to the Bel Air Farmer's market. Just saying you can get some nice flowers and a great cut together. So overall, I would really recommend this place. I looked tired but my hair looked great when I came out so.

Jeff Asked me to wait several times while he worked on someone else's hair, which is why it took so long so my family was sitting there waiting for me. I wanted to keep the length but they cut off at least 2 1/2 inches. The cut itself was bad. I have wavy hair. The way he cut it looks terrible after a wash which tells me they don't know how to cut wavy course Asian hair.. They also don't give you a mirror to show you the back of your hair. When I got home, I noticed that when he texturized my hair and took weight out of it, he took out a heavier chunk on one side than the other. Will never go again.

So I sat down and waited patiently until their conversation was done. Both of them were done talking and the lady walks away and goes to another customer and starts working on their hair. She didn't even acknowledge me after the fact. After waiting for 10 minutes and no one came back up to the front, I decided I wasn't going to waste my time or money at this place. I left this place at 1:10pm. Honestly, I thought this place would be top-notch considering the reviews; however, this wasn't a great experience for me and will not be calling this place again for any service.

Paid, $650 for full highlight, 1 row install of bead extension (I supplied my own hair - they use Belliami hair which is awful hair - dont be sold on that crap). I walked in platinum blonde, with 10 weeks root growout, wanting to add dimension, blend extention hair and address under processed areas from previous stylist. Simple, nothing uncommon. 6+ hours later, I end up with a blended ashy dull blonde, dark unfoiled spots and extensions sewn in lopsided - opposite of what I requested or paid for. Reached out to request fix and given the run-around and told it would be an additional $175 to add additional highlights for dimenion and the unfoiled dark areas which a full foil of $385 should have acheived at inital time of service, not to mention the multible toners used. What I requested never changed from in-person consult, from shared pictures and day of service. My hair was healthy and hadnt been processed in 10 weeks, I was already very blonde (the hard part was already done) and during the appointment they tell you, you need metal detox, and k18 treatments for chemical services however when requested a fix a few days later Im told they didnt want to compromise the hair and that we will work up too my desired look but if Im willing to pay an additional $175 - we can schedule you this week- total foolishness. Who pays $650 with the intention of working towards something when I walked in 80% already there. You pay for time not services, and its a money grab. Morgan was pleasant however the poor customer service, pushback to correct and request to pay more are unprofessional practices. Save yourself the headache and your money - this salon is exteremly overpriced for amateur expertise. Total money grab and no recoarse. I dont want a salon credit, I requested a fix and that wasnt doable without paying more so how about a refund. I will post

I've probably tried a dozen or so places that could never achieve what I wanted even though they all said they could. Then I found this place and my hope has been restored in hair humanity. First, their receptionists are customer service experts. They listen, genuinely care and matched me to the perfect stylist, Eva. Janice and Vicki, I think you are rockstars and deserve bonuses. Totally made me feel welcome and special. Second, the salon is clean, chic and has a great vibe. The 14 women working there work really well together. At some places you can pick up on the cattiness. Not here. The vibe is serene and they all work like they actually like each other. Professionalism on fleek. Third, they carry great products like Unite, one of my favorite Carlsbad companies. And lastly, Eva was a rockstar. I presented hair that really need a champ and she delivered impeccable results that I'm loving. She was super friendly and easy to talk to. Her back up profession should be a therapist because after talking to her I felt a lot less weight off my shoulders and left feeling pretty again. Admittedly I was scared I'd still see the red the other place left me with. But Eva totally made me feel relaxed and I took the leap to trust her skills and am so glad I did. She's an amazing person and I'm glad to of found my hair professional. Oh the places we will go girlfriend. Great experience. Try them, you will thank me later!
