    The bangs that were cut (angle #1)
    Natalie H.

    First timer here & it was highly recommended by instagram folks and multiple online platforms. I'm only giving it 1 stars for the hair shampoo and dying was up to my liking and Lisa was pretty hard working when she was being told to do stuff left and right from blow drying to moving certain tables to shampooing customer's hair to putting towels into the dryer. Helen was very interactive while my hair was getting dyed. Very friendly. Caleb was my stylist. He was being efficient but sad to say he didn't meet my expectations with my haircut. He gave off high aurora after showing a pic of what I wanted once, which the cut wasn't similar to what my photo has shown to him. I didn't except my bangs to be this short and up against my face when the photo shown to be curtain bangs. I think he tried to style it a bit more so it covered up the bangs being messed up. I think this place is more so better at just dying and head spa treatment than cuts personal opinion wise I felt semi pressured to tip them so the cut wasn't worth over $300 for... Edit: I gave them a call after few minutes leaving the shop to ask for a refund. Caleb himself told the receptionist that they can't do that cause "time was spent cutting the hair"....20-25 min cut is equivalent to well spent. That's insane. I have shared to Helen, during my session earlier, that I've done some research on salons prior to settling down with this salon to cut my hair. I expected to feel renewed but it's the reverse. Personally I feel like when someone walks out of a salon with a new hair cut, you're basically getting a free advertisement for your product but I'm not proud of my cut to say that I'm walking out in public with confidence. Especially the fact that a hair cut helps bring an image/impression of someone. I'm glad I wasn't going on a date/interview or anywhere that needs to be physically presentable cause this cut would ruin it. Should've looked at the review made by someone 2 months ago who wanted a wolf cut too...I much rather have my hair looking like a mop than this. As the manager and head stylist of this shop, you shouldn't be proud that not just one but two customers has left reviews that aren't pleased with their cut, a free voucher to come back to get it "fixed" isn't gonna cut it. What else are you gonna cut? My bangs that's already beyond my forehead? Are you going to buzz off my hair too? On the call, I only asked for a refund for the cut (around $111) and not the full refund price of $375 including tax. But to state saying he doesn't even want a cut refund is ridiculous...it comes off as you're not apologetic for ruining someone's image for the next few months....spraying product on my hair isn't gonna hide the fact that you ruined the cut and it's nowhere close to the reference photo... Mind you, Caleb has never mentioned to me that the photo of my choice as reference was too long for my hair prior to cutting it. The only thing he kept emphasizing on was "you want to keep the back long right?". He also never mentioned to me that he would cut my bangs extremely short either, that's not even close to how the bangs are suppose to look like in the reference photo. The reference photo bangs were CURTAIN BANGS not SHORT, BOWL LIKE BANGS

    I had a terrible experience and am incredibly disappointed with a $120 haircut plus tip. I came in asking for a blended, texturized lob and showed clear reference photos. Caleb took a quick look and spent less than 15 minutes rushing through my hair, leaving the top layers completely disconnected from the bottom. It literally looks like a blunt bowl cut sitting on top of a straight curtain of hair (see my photos). When I told him it didn't look right, he just dismissed it, blaming the blow-dry and saying "I think the layering looks good." On top of that, the assistant's blow-dry was an incredibly outdated style that made me look like an ajuma. I contacted the salon to get a refund so I could pay a different salon to fix the structural mistake, but the receptionist hung up on me. I messaged management with photos, and they just sent back script responses refusing a refund. Careless and unprofessional. Check the photos to see the disconnect for yourself. UPDATE: The salon's response completely misses the point. This isn't a styling issue or a limitation of my "hair density"--it's a fundamental technical error. Rushing through my dense hair in less than 15 minutes is exactly why I was left with a blunt, blocky bowl-cut shelf sitting on top of a straight curtain of hair. Also, their "detailed communication" was just a copy-pasted script refusing a refund. I am not comfortable letting the same stylist cut more of my hair to "refine" a mistake he dismissed in the chair.

    Long layers

    I had an amazing experience from start to finish! Before my haircut, I treated myself to the hair spa service with Helen, and it was wonderful- she used the Arca Genol hair product on me, which smelled incredible and left my scalp feeling so fresh and clean. Such a relaxing way to start the appointment. My haircut with Caleb was honestly the best I've had in a long time. I have a lot of hair, and it's thick and coarse, so it's not always easy to work with:but Caleb nailed my request 100%. I asked for long layers, and my hair feels absolutely amazing now, so much lighter and more manageable without losing any length. The styling afterward was the perfect finishing touch. Highly recommend both Helen and Caleb!

    Evelyn C.

    Caleb and Helen did a wonderful job with my service from start to finish! I love my face framing layers and the length caleb cut is perfect!

    Short Layered Haircut
    Esther K.

    Just received my first haircut at Hair Arca. I was greeted by Helen who was so friendly. I wanted to get a korean short layered haircut and referenced a photo to Caleb. He knew right away what I wanted and was very meticulous in giving me a hairstyle that fit my face shape. They also included a nice headspa and recommended how to style my hair. I will be coming back!

This is my warning to others that are going here to have straightening done. Don't rely on her to tell you it's not right for your hair. To top it off when I called to tell her she did not apologize, she did not act as though she felt bad her response was not caring at all. Not to mention she didn't offer any advice or a refund. Now it will take me years to get my hair healthy and I'm so upset.

I had allotted 2 hours and now there was only 1 hour left and I had not even been seen or sent for hair washing. All the while I waited, I could see Sal doing at least 2 other people's hair. When I asked the front desk if I could reschedule, they said they would talk to him. Several minutes passed. Sal was aware that I was there, but chose not to speak to me himself. He chose not to even take two minutes to face me and apologize. He was going to Mexico the next night, and could only offer the next day during hours I had to work. The salon manager apologized for Sal and offered another hair dresser. I have curly hair and want someone experienced in curly hair- especially when the haircut is right before my wedding and will cost hundreds of dollars. I think the worst part was that Sal was right there but simply didn't have the courtesy to apologize. I will never return to this salon. As for my wedding in two weeks, I have asked my makeup artist to help me find someone.

I also met incredible people who became friends for life, which made this experience even more special. A very special thank you to my teacher Julia. I was so lucky to have you as my teacher. You are beautiful inside and out, and your positive energy made our days brighter and made us look forward to each new day at school. Your patience, encouragement, and belief in me meant more than you will ever know. You truly inspired me not just to become a great esthetician, but to grow in confidence and strength as a person. Thank you to Rino for always being there to help with anything and everything from the very beginning. Your kindness and willingness to assist made such a difference in my experience. And to Mr. J and Ms. Jenny -- thank you for your warmth and positivity. Your presence added so much to the atmosphere of the school, and I truly appreciate you both. I will be forever grateful for my time at KC Beauty Academy. It will always hold a special place in my heart. I miss you all

    I came in for a keratin treatment and ended up meeting the director, Mr. J -- he's amazing! He…read morereally makes sure his students do a great job and runs this place so well. He's knowledgeable, professional, and takes the time to explain everything clearly. I can't wait to come back for a balayage treatment!
