I've been going to Uyen since 2021, and it's truly the most beautiful my hair has ever looked…read more My natural hair is very fine, and when I first came to her it was just past my shoulders. Uyen added extensions and created a gorgeous bronde color. Over the years we've tried different looks, from very blonde to closer to my natural dark blonde, and I loved it every time! What impressed me the most is how healthy my hair stayed the entire time. After wearing extensions for over two years, I took them out for a while and my natural hair actually looked about 30% thicker than before (The thickest it has ever been). I just got a new set of extensions again and absolutely love them. I went from short hair to almost waist length, and this time we did wavy extensions to match my natural texture. It came out beautifully - the color matches perfectly and it looks very natural, even when I let my hair air dry without styling. Uyen is incredibly attentive and works very meticulously. She really listens and takes the time to make everything blend perfectly. I completely trust her with my hair and highly recommend her, especially if you have fine hair and are considering extensions.

I got my hair permed and the consultation was thorough without being overly long. She listened to my concerns and was able to bring my vision to life, thank you!

I had two recent appointments here and unfortunately had a very poor experience…read more I paid over $600 for lightening and vivid color services, expecting to work directly with the owner. However, significant portions of the service were performed by an assistant without my consent. The appointments were also heavily overbooked--I spent over 10 hours in the salon across two visits, much of that time waiting. More concerning was the outcome. My hair has sustained significant damage, including breakage in the front where an entire layer was overprocessed and broke off, requiring me to cut bangs to cover it. The overall condition of my hair is now extremely dry, brittle, and straw-like--the worst it has been in over 25 years of coloring my hair. There were also technical issues during the service. My color was rinsed prematurely, which removed pigment and required reapplication, leading to additional unnecessary processing. My eyebrows were also affected during the service and had to be corrected afterward at my own expense. I reached out directly to try to resolve this, but was only offered a partial refund that does not reflect the extent of the damage or the corrective work now required. He damaged my hair beyond repair and now refuses to even take accountability and refund me - so that I can attempt to begin the healing journey for my hair. When I attempted to resolve this directly, my concerns were dismissed and I was offered only a minimal partial refund that did not reflect the outcome. The tone of the response did not feel professional or solution-oriented. There is no amount of money that can reverse the damage to my hair, but a full refund would be a reasonable acknowledgment of the outcome and the cost now required to correct it.

But gives you space to know it's still, your choice at the end of the day. This is why I did invisible bead extensions!

Naturally curly girls! This is your hairstylist!…read more Marisa is incredible! I'm a curly girl and needed someone to put my curls up for my wedding. I had a heck of a time finding a hair stylist who understood that I just wanted someone to take my natural curls and style them. They all wanted to rewash and curl my hair - and I wanted my natural curls. When I contacted Marisa I knew I had found the right person, she was super responsive via email, understood exactly what I wanted and was very reasonably priced. I set up a trial, showed her pics and she did an amazing job making my hair EXACTLY what I wanted. She's also the sweetest person in the world. The morning of the wedding for about an hour before everyone showed up it was just my bridesmaid, her and me and it was wonderful - she made the morning of my wedding better. She's relaxed, fun to talk to, and of course quickly and easily made my hair look GORGEOUS! I couldn't recommend Marisa more! If you live in Southern California and need a fabulous stylist who will work with your natural curls LOOK NO FURTHER!

There isn't a single soul on the this planet I would have trusted more with my hair and makeup for…read moremy wedding day. Every girl dreams of this day and I was no different. I wanted to look like myself but with a flawless finish. My hair is notorious for being difficult, straight as a stick and doesn't hold a curl and thick as ever. From beginning to end, Marisa is focused on creating a professional and relaxed experience for her brides. She is prompt to respond and flexible when scheduling trials. My first round of trials actually took place in preparation for our engagement photo shoot. The makeup was on point, so natural and flawless. The photos came out beautiful and the hair was exactly how I imagined it would be. We had a follow up trail to work out the details for the BIG day hair. In true fashion, my hair would not cooperate. Marisa was so patient and had a plan, we tried again at another trial appointment, and VIOLA! She had changed her approach and choice of tools and figured out exactly how best to curl my hair for the look and all day hold I would need. As a side note, she is great about making notes for day of execution so all the time in between trials and the big day don't impact the end result. The big day was finally HERE! She was an army of one and manged to get my two bridesmaids, my mom, and myself ready with ease. We had a blast all morning and it set the tone for the entire day. The morning went without a hitch and the end result was exactly as I had imagined. I am still so in love with my bridesmaid who decided a too do a beautiful braid (she's a BRAID MASTER!) and their makeup was amazing. I almost forgot to mention that she was so kind and styled my future husband that morning as well. I simply can't say enough wonderful things about her, she is a true master of her craft and if you're lucky enough to book this beauty you will not be disappointed. I will be forever grateful for all her hard work.
