This felt like the first time I left a salon completely satisfied with what I wanted! I asked for soft U cut, long layers, and face framing pieces. I really wanted to keep volume at my ends while getting rid of the thinned out pieces and Anna totally understood my vision. I appreciated her asking if I usually tie my hair up and suggested cutting the face framing pieces to where it's long enough to tie up. It's the little details like that which made a huge difference! Anna herself is so personable, warm, kind, and so easy to chat with. Her salon is clean and has beautiful natural lighting. I could tell she has years of experience and really poured into her salon & building a loyal clientele. I would recommend her, especially if you're looking for an asian stylist who understands asian hair, and plan on returning in the future! women's haircut with wash- $80 I was able to schedule an appt with her via yelp messaging. She also has a link via instagram to book- https://missannachung.wixsite.com/hairbyannachung-8 fyi- she'll be on maternity leave for a few months :) read more

I've been seeing Anna for years now, and she continues to impress me every single time. Her new studio is absolutely beautiful--super clean, private, and so peaceful. It gives us a chance to really catch up while she works her magic, and the whole experience just feels extra special. Anna really listens and takes the time to understand what I want. She's honest, skilled, and always delivers. I keep going lighter with each visit, and I'm loving the results--just take a look at her Yelp photos! She's incredibly talented (a true hairovoiánt) and such a joy to spend time with. I honestly wouldn't trust anyone else with my hair. Thank you, Anna! read more

After a long search of hair stylists, I went to Anna being impressed by her reviews. She did not disappoint and gave me a style cut that I am 100% happy with... I haven't found that elsewhere since moving to SD. She clearly has the skills and talent to give you exactly what you are asking for. Anna also has a wonderful personality that made the experience enjoyable. I look forward to returning to Anna for all my styling needs! Thank you Anna! read more

She did an amazing job on my haircut. I was new to this San Diego area and stumbled upon this page. I am so glad I chose to get a haircut by Anna. Looking forward to coming back again. read more

Paid by card. I found Anna on Yelp and I'm so glad I did! She's awesome! She has a chair at a salon and the salon has a lot of plaza parking. Even though she's usually booked at least a month out, I was lucky and took a canceled spot. Anna is so communicative and thorough and I can tell she definitely has a lot of experience by the feedback she was giving about my hair and by her skills. She's very open and honest and so funny to talk to! (I ended up getting skincare recommendations from her also!) I would definitely recommend Anna and will be going again to her again soon! read more

I'm so grateful for Instagram ads for introducing me to Anna! I personally am super afraid to try a new hairdresser since some judge my hair or don't cut/style the way I like it. But I gave my full trust to Anna and I'm so glad that I did. Not only did she style and did my hair so great but she's really fun to chat with! Finding the place wasn't hard at all and there are many parking spaces so parking is definitely not an issue. I didn't expect an hour to fly by so fast from her. She first washed my hair and then gave a cut and some curls to my hair and it came out so beautiful that I couldn't believe that it was my hair. I even prebooked my appointment with her in the coming months cause she is completely booked for a couple of months already! That's how you know many like to get hair done from her! If you're looking for someone to help change your hair up, definitely hit up Anna cause she's the one who'll make your hair so glorious! read more

Lovely experience! Anna is wonderful! I will be back. I felt really comfortable with Anna and I could trust her with my hair.

First off, my hair looks so amazing! I've been getting so many compliments on my most recent hair cut with Anna! I've been recommending her to all my friends. I just want to thank Anna for being so thorough with my hair and making me feel welcomed! She definitely takes her time to make sure you love your hair which I appreciated a lot. I've been searching for a permanent hair stylist, and I think I found the best one which is Anna! Thank you again for the great hair cut and for being so sweet. Can't wait to see you again! read more

Anna is incredible. She took her time to explain to me how she was going to cut my hair and where it would fall on my back. She didn't just go in cutting . She took off a small amount first because I was very nervous , I had ent had a hair cut in 6 years . But I needed one so bad. Anna trimmed the frayed ends first then went back in after it was dry and gave my hair shape so I wouldn't feel like she took to much off. It feels so healthy now and thicker then ever before ! I have found my hair lady finally! She's patient, gentle, kind and caring. She's also very easy to talk to . It's like hanging out with a girlfriend . Thank you so my Anna! Your literally a life saver read more

Anna is AHMAZING!!! Moving to a new state can be very frustrating for us females. Our hair stylists are as important to us as our medical doctors! I had lost my stylist due to the lock downs and having been stylist hunting ever since, getting a few bad haircuts along the way, however, I was tired of the mediocrity and decided I'm going to hunt down a great stylist for me. Being a licensed cosmetologist in 2 states myself, it magnifies my situation that much more to find someone you can trust with your hair, and I found that special person in Anna. Anna communicated very well with me about my hair. I was impressed at how much knowledge she had not in hair trends but hair products as well. She's, super laid back, funny, cute and has the best personality! Anna is confident in what she does and it absolutely shows in her artistry of hair. read more

Sorry in advance for the long post. (In case you don't want to read, just know Anna is amazing. You NEED to have her work on your hair. She genuinely cares and makes sure it gets done how you like it.) Okay so here's the long version: I've been putting off cutting my hair for a little over a year because I get really nervous about where I go to get my hair done. I recently moved to Poway, so I didn't want to drive down to Otay just to get a haircut. I finally had enough of my long hair, so I set out to find a new stylist. There were a few in the area I was looking at, but I kept leaning toward Anna. The main reason I originally went to her was because I saw how diverse her client base was. I wanted someone who was able to work with many different hair types. So I finally built up the courage and set up an appointment with her. I wasn't very clear on my appointment time preference so I had to go back and forth with her a couple of times. Even through my difficult schedule, she never made me feel like a burden. On top of that, she was able to fit me in on the exact time and day I needed. On the day of my appointment, I came in and she instantly made me comfortable. I usually hate the awkwardness of getting my hair done because I'm generally not good at small talk. She is a natural people person, so it was actually fun; not awkward at all! Alright, so the actual quality of her work was... amazing. She asked me what I was looking for and if I had any pictures, so I showed her a few. She instantly recognized the look I was going for (I now know it's called a lob/long bob). To make sure she didn't cut my hair too short, she cut it slightly longer than where I specified and made adjustments from there. She even offered suggestions on how to make it better. At that point I already trusted her judgment so I went with it. No regrets! (She framed my face by trimming/tapering the front) After she was done with the cut, she styled it straightened for me to show me how it looks that way. Then she went ahead and showed me how it looks with waves. She even took the time to educate me on the types of products I will need on top of teaching me how to do it with a hair straightener (I don't have a curler at home, I used to hate curls/waves so I'd always straighten my hair). I'll be honest, even though she taught me, I definitely need to practice doing my own waves. I can't do it as well as she did, haha. Anyway, I love my hair and I definitely plan on seeing Anna again soon (this time for some color treatment before my next trim/cut). If you made it this far, hopefully this helps you decide! I would say so much more, but I've written an essay already. Thanks for reading. And thanks again to Anna for everything! read more

I found Anna through yelp needing someone to help fix a bad haircut. My first visit was so pleasant. She described in detail exactly what she recommended to get to the style I wanted and delivered. I took my toddler in for her first pro cut and Anna was wonderful with her! Just went back today (Anna squeezed me in on her day off!) for my baby highlights and am super pleased again! She is skillful, confident in her work, and humble as can be. DEFINITELY A HIDDEN GEM! read more

Anna is amazing! I went in for a free 30 minute consultation and we really discussed what i wanted, what the process involved, what i had to commit to in terms of maintenance and hair care. She explains everything to you and makes sure you understand and trust in the process. When you book an appointment she alots enough time for you so that she's not rushing. The end result is beautiful! Also, time flies so fast as we have so much fun chitchatting about or dogs and our favorite TV shows! read more

I recently moved to Poway and I needed to find someone to cut my hair. This can be scary when you have no recommendations at all and because in most of the saloons the hairstylists are changing all the time so you never know what to expect next. I found Anna here on Yelp and I also liked that she works independently, not for a saloon. I saw the pictures that her clients posted here and I loved the transformation and the results so I tried it out and I LOVED IT! She suggested a certain haircut after listening to my needs and was super respectful of the length that I wanted to be cut out because of the dead ends. She's super nice and positive and time flied by while we where chatting and she was working on my hair. She put a lot of work (around an hour) and when I saw the result after the styling I was BLOWN AWAY. I don't remember liking a hairstylist's work as much as hers! Just try it out and you'll love her! read more

I found Anna through yelp and decided to contact her immediately after reviewing her work on Instagram. I've been wanting to find a good hair stylist who will understand my hair and will provide me good feedback, but it never happened. However, I'm so lucky that I found Anna, she's for sure my go-to person now! She's amazing! We communicate through text to make appointment and talk about my hair history. She knows exactly what I was looking for and giving me some tips on how to take care of my hair. I'm so happy that my hair color looks perfect after Anna's magic work too. Thank you so much, Anna! You saved my hair :) read more

She made the 3 hour process feel like an hour! I can't wait to go back to book for future hair treatments!!! Thank you so much, Anna! Love, love, love my hair so much! read more

Hair By Anna Chung - After one day with Anna! - Hair Stylists Near Me - Poway, California

I'm one of those people that are super terrified of doing anything with my hair, especially since my natural color is so dark. I've ALWAYS wanted to add a little color to make my hair pop but I was never able to find a stylist that had enough dark hair colored reviews and pictures that I felt super positive about. This all changed when I saw Anna's reviews, I instantly felt like she knew what she was doing. I was super reassured by her pictures and decided to take a leap of faith and make an appointment. Lucky for me Anna had an availability the same day so I rushed on over to meet her. From the get-go she was SO energetic and SO sweet. She walked me through each and every step of the process (since I knew practically nothing about hair and coloring) which I sincerely appreciated. I showed her a picture of a balayage style she had previously done and gave specifics of how I wanted it catered to me. I also told her I was EXTREMELY attached to my hair length and, even if it was dead, I only wanted her to cut what she had to. Anna was super understanding and reassured me she'd only cut off what was needed for it to look less frayed and healthy (a huge plus for most of us girls who have lost inches over a stylist who wanted to take the reigns on OUR hair). She took all my comments into consideration and went to work on my hair. She checked in on me on several occasions to make sure I was still alive and breathing as she put the color in since she knew how big of a step this was for me . After a couple hours of great conversation we ended up with a beautiful outcome!!! While this color is still a huge step for me I wouldn't have had it any other way or with any other stylist. I'm so happy I finally have someone I feel comfortable with to take care of my hair. She cut off the perfect amount of hair and helped me frame my face with the perfect amount of color and length. Thank you Anna!!! read more

I went to Anna I believe on the 2nd (sorry for the late review! ), and wooow. I have never been this happy with a cut before in my life. I found her on here LAST year and was so in love with her work, never found the time to go, then covid struck, and now when the restrictions are easing up I finally went and I am so happy I did. She works a lot with color as you can see from the other reviewers, but I just went in for a cut since my hair was half way down my thighs and I'm super touchy about who works on my hair. My hair looks a lot lighter in the first but that's using a different phone and other lighting. Hadn't had a trim in 3 years nor a cut in 10 years. I am so happy I decided to go with Anna. Her prices are so reasonable as well and you can tell she is in the business for the passion not the money. Will start getting my hair cut regularly with her if I can! Thanks Anna! read more

I have not been into hair coloring for at least 5 years, and one day I decided to bring my dull, busy mom hair back to life. Then I found Anna here on Yelp. I really like her personality, her hair coloring techniques, and she caters to many types of hair. On my 1st cut and color with her (9months ago), she recommended for me to ease my way back into coloring so we did something very subtle that I am comfortable with, and it exceeded my expectations. On my second cut and color with her yesterday, I definitely trusted her process for my hair going lighter this time. She gave me the lightest color I've ever had, and she did an awesome job. She gave me the confidence to go blonde and I love the outcome! I will definitely be back. read more

I've visited Anna twice. This is for a consult to change my jet black hair to a lighter dark brown color. She didn't actually change my hair color because the timing is really short for a special event and black hair takes so much time to lighten up. But I really appreciate her being honest and spending the time with me .. when Im ready to tough it out, since my hair most likely turns bright orange in the process.. I will be back. She has earned my trust. read more

Cute and clean place. I would say give it a try and be specific about what you're looking for

I've always been hesitant to try a new stylist. I loved how Anna was very meticulous and took her time with my hair. When I asked her about doing a color last minute she didn't take on another task right away because she had an appointment with another client later on that day, which shows that she respects her clients and their time. I'm usually turned off by service people who will say negative things about previous stylist's work, but Anna didn't do that when she evaluated my hair and the color. Overall, I loved how my hair turned out! Highly recommend and will definitely be back! read more

I love Anna!! She's so friendly and radiates a really nice energy. She welcomed me like an old friend and she got me talking even though I'm usually pretty quiet. I came in with super fried, over-processed short hair (really made for a great "before" picture) and I told her just to cut it all off because I thought the damage was too severe. She assured me it wasn't that bad and even gave me options about what she could do instead of chopping it all off. She explained she was doing every step of the way and advised me when I wasn't sure about whether or not something would work for my hair. I was seriously feeling bad about my hair before I went in, but she worked her magic and I left feeling pretty hopeful about my hair future! I'm excited for my hair to grow out and I'm looking forward to seeing Anna again :) read more
