    I have attached photos that speak louder than words. Do NOT go to Kenny! Kenny filters his posted photos and they are not all authentic. My Mom went to Kenny on August 31st after I was referred to him by a friend. I saw his work on social media and was so excited. She goes and gets a base color change, base, cut etc almost $300. Meanwhile, kenny sends me this blonde photo of my mom on social media while I'm at work, which looks amazing I thank him profusely. When I get home my Mom looks NOTHING like the photo, in fact she looks like she barely got a change. See attached photos. Basically we initially nicely asked Kenny if she can return to get some more highlights. This is where the problem begins. Myself nor my Mom didn't care about the work itself. My mom actually really liked Kennys attitude and personality and wanted to continue to see him. Kenny for no reason gives soooo much attitude to have her come in for a fix up. He makes it extremely difficult and we settle for a date like a month later because he's so busy though its shocking b/c when scheduling her initial appt he had availability the week of! So day of appt comes, my Mom is driving there for her appt at 12pm and kenny calls her at 11:45 to say he can only see her at 1pm, so she just sits in her car for over an hour b/c he informed her so late and she was almost at the salon. Then he see's her and says he can do additional highlights but there would be a $50 product charge, my Mom agrees. He then has the audacity to say "well actually I don't have any time today" with attitude. And my Mom basically storms off for him wasting her time! I don't think Kenny understands that he disrespected my Mother and her time is extremely valuable, she works 5-6 days a week and kills it at her career so for him to handle the situation like this is extremely unprofessional and he obviously can not stand up to his own work. He lost out on a lot of potential clients with this.

    Amazing and concise consultation. All expectations were met and exceeded. Kenny is a true master of cut and color. He has an uncanny ability to customize based off of independent features skin tone hair texture and whatever best suits the clients needs. A truly rare gem that is worth every penny. His work is the type of work he would pay $1000 for in Brentwood or Beverly Hills.

    Kenny is a Very Talented Hair Artist!

    Kenny is such a talented Hair Stylist. We had to drive more than an hour to go see him. We are all amazed by Kenny's many talents. Kenny cuts and styles your hair to fit your face, shape of your head and your looks... so he gives you the perfect cut, perfect hight lights, (he uses the most expensive & best and safe Coloring products too) Kenny cuts & styles with a passion. Truly an artist. He is the best. . Thanks Kenny!

    Hands down kenny is the best! He made me feel comfortable and made sure i was happy i love my new hair cant stop taking them selfies! Ive seen his balayage work and OMG i had to go with him and i couldn't be happier thanks kenny!!! You are my new hairstylist :D You will not regret

    Kenny has been styling my hair for a couple of years now because I only trust him to deliver exactly what I want! These pictures show two different hair dying sessions he has done for me that nailed it. An added plus is that everyone says my hair looks healthy!

    Long, thick hair!  Partial highlights + long layers by Kenny L - best Temecula hair stylist
    Tia K.

    I have been searching for a hairstylist for the past 7 years since I moved away from my last hair stylist of 10years. I gave so many other hair stylist a try, at first I'd like the cut leaving the salon, but never really loved it. After leaving Kenny's salon today, I felt great about my hair, it looks good and I don't have to fly back to my old stylist to get it fixed this time. I'm so happy to find someone close by in Temecula SoCal area that can take care of my thick, long, wavy/curly hair! Kenny is really an artist who is passionate about what he does, he's very focused and detailed oriented. He listens to you and really help you achieve the right look for you. Thanks so much Kenny!

    My hair before golden blonde to a pale blonde. Kenny L !! Great job!
    Cindy W.

    Kenny L did a fabulous job on my hair. I wanted a change from the golden dirty blonde and he took his time did a great job and making my hair beautiful. He was professional and has great attention to detail. I would definitely reccomend him if you want a beautiful color!!

    Kenny is the best at his art. He is truly an artist of hair. It is so hard to find someone who not only knows what they are doing but is passionate about their craft and only wants the best for their clients. He is very educated and talented with color and cut. He transformed my hair into everything I've ever wanted and was told by several hair stylist it was not possible. I'm so beyond happy I found him.

    Before, 6 month grown out balayage
    Quennie D.

    Kenny is amazing! My first time I came, he fixed up my balayage but at this appointment my hair has grown out 6 months so it was time for a touch up. I live in Miami, Fl but I wait to come home to get my hair done with Kenny. He gave me a fresh cut and touched up my hair with baby lights and I'm in love with it! I also got a hair treatment because it's been 6 months since I've been back so it feels healthy and new again!! I don't trust anyone else but Kenny with my hair.

    Ugh...it's hard for me to trust someone to do my hair! They normally never do what I want! But I have to Kenny L did an extraordinary job! I'm obsess with my hair! I feel like a new person! Kenny is someone I will definitely recommend anyone! He knows what he's doing! He's so patient! I loved his service! Definitely going back! Thank you Kenny L!!!! You're the BEST!!! Here is my transformation.....

    Amazing low maintenance haircut done by Kenny! #haircut #love #salon #hairbykennyl
    Tina T.

    Let's just say Kenny was the last straw when it came to finding a stylist in CA. I drive and fly to AZ to get precision cuts from my girl Shanelle but with me working in the industry as well, the schedule is very hectic. Luckily I had saved Kenny in one of the searches and I decided to finally reach out to him. He was able to take me in the same day (thank you). He works solo as well (his own business) located inside, "From Head 2 Toez". Kenny understood my expectations with how I needed my hair to be cut. He was able to even out the lob without cutting too much length from my shortest strand and gave me beautiful low maintenance layers for every day wear. Prior to the cutting he expressed what he was going to do and made sure I was okay with everything before proceeding and actually carried out what he said he would do with my hair. He was very attentive and made sure I was okay every step of the way. I've attached a photo of the cut Kenny did below so you can see for yourself the detail in the cut. Overall, if you are looking for a stylist who will listen to what you want, you got it... it's Kenny. If you're also looking for a change and need an up to date look, he'll be able to create a look catered to your individual needs. He also offers other wide variety of hair services as well so make sure you ask him about his other services. Kenny: It was a pleasure meeting you today. Thank you for making this experience calming and stress free. I love my new cut and I cant wait to grow out my hair! See you in a few months to freshen up my hair again. - @makemeprettie

Now I'm a male with a very low maintenance view on his hair, so I just lopped off my hair with the #2 shears. The salon was busy and livelyfor a Saturday afternoon, but there were a few staff still available for me to walk in. So the atmosphere was nice with music and conversation amongst patrons. I personally had a content time just peacefully enjoying my cut without any trouble. In the end, I managed to pay with Zelle. Understand they may not advertise it, they explain it was hacked before, but at least I got to leave with the cut I wanted without thinking too hard about what I owed, all in a good span of time.

Hair was looking choppy but I thought I should just trust the process. I heard her 11AM arrived while I was sitting. Girl why did you take me at 10:50AM if you have a 11AM? Anyways, It felt very rushed. Bangs are too short and look choppy. One side of my bangs are longer than the other. Hair has hardly any layers and when I look at the ends I see her define cuts. Probably the worst haircut I've ever had. I've been tying my hair and clipping the bangs up until it grows.

The salon itself is a bit dated but it reflects the price she's charging which I feel is very fair pricing. I'm a first time client and will be a regular. I noticed Lyly uses high quality products including olaplex in her services. She did gray blending on me which was ash highlights to help my gray hair grow out along with the process. She also gave a very good hair cut. If you have realistic hair goals, just ask her if she can do it. She's very responsive via text. I would suggest showing her photos beforehand.

I haven't gotten my hair done in around 2 years since I had my kids, I finally got the time and chance to get a balayage just in time for spring/ summer. She really transformed my boring hair to something beautiful and I feel so much more confident. Thank you Lyly! Definitely stop by her salon if you want to get dolled up. Will definitely bring my sister and mom here.

Unfortunately, most of the other times I visited, the staff seemed somewhat unfriendly. Yesterday, I brought both my daughter and my son in for haircuts. The salon did not seem very busy, so I asked if chị Hiền could cut my daughter's hair. She was busy, so I said anyone could take care of my kids. From the beginning, it felt like no one wanted to do children's haircuts. I'm not sure if it's because kids' haircuts are priced lower, but several stylists kept saying, "I have an appointment next" or "I'm busy." Eventually, one stylist agreed to cut my daughter's hair, and the front desk asked me to wait about 20 minutes for my son's haircut. I was perfectly happy to wait. However, the haircut itself was disappointing. Even my 8-year-old could tell it looked nothing like the reference photo we showed. He was just doing it the way he wanted despite I clearly told him what I wanted for my daughter's hair After waiting about 30 minutes while my daughter's haircut was being done, the front desk again asked if anyone could cut my son's hair. Once again, several stylists said they were busy or had customers. At that point I was frustrated and said, "That's okay, I don't need it anymore." What made it worse was that as I was leaving, I noticed a couple of stylists standing around without clients instead of helping with my son's haircut. I can honestly say that I've visited this salon three times, I tip generously, and I've never been picky. If you're considering this salon for children's haircuts, I would recommend looking elsewhere. In my experience, they do not seem to specialize in little boys' haircuts, and some of the staff are not particularly kid-friendly unless you already have a favorite stylist. Because of this experience, I don't think I'll be returning.
