Caleb is wonderful and gave me the exact cut I wanted! Salon is clean and peaceful. Will be back again!

They were sooo skilled and I got exactly what I wanted! So happy with the outcome. Caleb was so helpful and did great!

Luna and Stacey are both great and very talented! $120 for a hair cut, free parking on side street or meters and parking lot that validates! Very relaxing hair and scalp massage for the hair cut! read more

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 read more

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. read more

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! read more

I've been going to Hair Arca for a year now and it's my go-to salon in Ktown. I received the deep hair moisturizer and head spa treatment from Helen and a face-framing haircut from Caleb.

I came in for a haircut and restoration perm. My hair was previously bleached and a bit damaged, and the restoration perm truly restored my hair back to healthy! I absolutely loved my experience - Caleb and Helen, Caleb's assistant, were so amazing! Thank you! read more

I always come for a hair cut / touch up with Caleb at hair arca and I trust him to do it right every time. I get haircut anxiety so I only go to someone I trust!! I like that Caleb never does something I didn't ask for, like some other hair stylists. If i want a 2 inch cut, then 2 inches it will be. I also think that they give the best hair wash in LA, like seriously. They use their own brand hair spa scalp treatment which is minty and feels so refreshing. Super recommend! will be back again and again read more

I came here for the first time for a haircut with Caleb and the experience and results are amazing. The service reminds me of the same level of service you'd receive in Korea. I plan to be back for a build perm. I don't have to go to Korea anymore for a quality cut! Thank you, Caleb! read more

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.

I will be coming back! read more

This place is all hype. I recently moved to LA and was looking for a reasonably priced salon that actually delivers quality--but this was a huge disappointment. The haircut took maybe 5-10 minutes, and it felt rushed and careless, like they were just chopping away without any attention to detail. It seemed more focused on appearance than actual skill. I was honestly shocked at how bad it turned out, and by the next day, my hair looked even worse. A good haircut should complement your face and still look decent even after you've slept on it. This didn't come close. Thankfully, I've since found a salon that takes the time to do precise, detailed cuts that grow out well and still look good even after a couple of months. Would not recommend this place at all. read more

Caleb is phenomenal. I came in wanting to get a short bob, but was quite nervous since I've had long hair for years now. He not only suggested the type of cut but also gave me tips to style my hair.

My son has seen Caleb for the past two years and is very happy with the variety of cuts he has gotten. I am pleased with results and price point. Not selling styling product is a hit miss in my view, my son has a-lot of hair and blindly finding the appropriate products to tame it means we've spent a-lot through trial and error.. read more

I got the grace perm which included root volume perm and a haircut and medium sized waves and I'm really happy with the results on my fine thin normally straight hair. Volume perm works. Caleb was my stylist and Helen was helping throughout the process. Everyone was super friendly and professional. Recommend this place for sure. read more

First time visiting and loved my short precision haircut by Caleb! I appreciate the attention to detail and how friendly everyone was. I also liked the vibe of the spot and would definitely recommend. :) Also, discounted parking right next door in the garage so very easy read more

Super friendly staff and pleasant experience The cut itself was about 10-15 minutes but they washed my hair at start and again at the end with scalp massage I was surprised to see so many men while I was there because I came home and my gf noticed several uneven and incomplete parts to my hair cut I was going to say they're clearly great at cutting women's hair and that I wouldn't recommend this salon to men but I assume their existing male customer base is happy read more

Got a hair cut from Caleb and loved it. First time getting a haircut at a salon and in LA. Enjoyed the head message and head spa treatment.

Got a sleek perm with Caleb and I'm obsessed. Totally tamed my curls into smooth, glossy strands while somehow adding incredible volume. Didnt expect this result but they nailed it. Highly recommend! read more

Caleb's build perm is the best!! I did my first Korean build perm with Caleb 3 years ago, it lasted a very long time, and I took a break to let me hair recover, but I have been wanting to come back! Caleb took the time to consult with me, decide on a style (it's great he has the lookbook), and we did hair bangs and the perm we chose. He also took the time to explain how to style it. I love the look!! Also love all the friendly staff!! Good vibes all around! read more
