Had an awesome haircut with Alan today. From the moment I sat down, it felt like catching up with…read morean old friend -- we ended up talking surf the whole time, which made the experience even better. Alan absolutely nailed what I was looking for: a long haircut that keeps the length but still looks clean, intentional, and put together. It's not easy to pull that off, but he clearly knows how to shape long hair so it moves well and doesn't feel heavy or sloppy. Walked out feeling dialed in and refreshed. Highly recommend Alan if you want someone who actually listens, knows their craft, and makes the whole experience enjoyable.

She listens to me, looks at my inspo, and offers her professional opinion. She's also incredibly fast and kind. She's done a full head of highlights, cut & blow out in a few short hours. She's an artist and a friend. Thank you, Mitra!! The vibe of the whole salon is really friendly and welcoming. I always enjoy my time here. Easy parking across the street and a nice selection of beverages.

When I made my appointment at Miakel Bishay Salon, I specifically requested to be paired with…read moresomeone experienced in cutting long bobs because I knew the style I wanted required skill and precision. I wanted a shorter bob in the back and longer in the front. Since this salon is expensive, I trusted that I would be in professional hands. Unfortunately, my experience with Mitra Jam was extremely disappointing and honestly devastating. The first time she cut my hair, it did not look anything like the haircut I asked for. When I explained that I did not like how it looked, she cut even more trying to "fix" it, and it ended up way too short while still not looking like the style I wanted. I also mentioned that I wanted some volume removed from my hair, but instead of blending it properly, she started cutting random chunks throughout my hair. Now, weeks later, I still have pieces sticking out that are barely about an inch long. There is no way to blend them or style them naturally. I literally have to use gel just to keep those pieces down because they stick out everywhere. I truly believe that if someone is not experienced or confident doing a certain type of haircut, they should not perform it. It is honestly unbelievable to pay this much money and leave with your hair completely ruined. Despite everything, she was kind and told me that if I wanted her to fix anything, I could come back. But realistically, she cannot uncut my hair. I normally do not leave negative reviews, but this experience genuinely affected me and I would not want someone else to go through the same thing.

Over the years, she has color-corrected my hair, dyed a pink money piece for me, done beautiful highlights, and most recently brought me back to my natural color. Through every transformation, she has taken incredible care of my hair and kept it healthy and damage-free. I always leave the salon feeling confident and refreshed. Agi consistently delivers exactly what I ask for, no matter the length or style, and somehow it turns out even better than I imagined. Her skill, attention to detail, and dedication truly set her apart. In addition, the other hairdressers at the salon are extremely warm and welcoming to every client who walks in, which makes the entire experience even more enjoyable. Thank you, Agi, for all you've done over the years. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my hair!
