She goes way beyond your imagination, unfortunately, I have given her a lot of things to be fixed over and over from damages that I had created. Nothing at all has ever been unfixable and just like how I said that she not only fixes it, but she takes it to a whole other level, creating dimension and vibrancy.

I have been coloring my hair professionally for years. My former hairdresser retired 2 years ago…read moreand I have been so disappointed with a number of other hairdressers I have tried since that time. Thanks to Yelp, I found Cynthia!! She is definitely a color expert! I came in with black/ brown hair and fine highlights asking to lighten my base and add highlights. She learned about my hair history and we proceeded with my understanding that it will be a process of a few visits to get to the color I desire. However, the initial results are beautiful! Looking forward to continuing to work with Cynthia on my hair color transformation journey!!

Rosie is wonderful. Warm, asks great questions, and extremely precise. Today she gave me a…read moreshoulder length beach bob and measured/trimmed three times to be absolutely certain everything was right. In my experience, it is difficult to find someone who takes such pride in their work and is lovely to be around from start to finish. I highly recommend Rosie for her talent and the care she gives each client. You will enjoy your time with her and your hair will look amazing. :)

I cannot overstate how incredible Michelle is! I've been so happy with every haircut I've had from…read moreher, she's so wonderful about taking reference photos and personal preferences into account and then working with you to create the perfect style. In addition to being incredibly talented, she is also incredibly welcoming. I generally consider myself a subpar conversationalist (awkward, bad with eye contact, sweats a lot), but I have NEVER ONCE felt awkward while getting a haircut from Michelle. She has an incredible ability to keep a conversation flowing naturally and every appointment is so pleasant! I used to DREAD haircuts and even cut my hair at home for a while, but now I look forward to them! I can't recommend Michelle enough as a stylist!

Gabby for the win! My first time here. Was feeling very…read morelazy, but wanted to straighten my hair for the day. I looked up on yelp for blowouts in my area and this place came up. Gabby was the only Stylist available last minute, but it worked in my favor. I was lucky to get an appointment within two hours for a blowout. I kinda miss the turn, so ended up parking on the street, but there is parking in the plaza lot that they are in. But otherwise there is plenty of street parking for free along Olive Avenue. Gabby is so sweet, and although I don't mind a heavy-handed Stylist, she is very gentle. The whole experience was very relaxing and satisfied with my end result. My only complaint and the reason I gave only four stars is, I didn't love the shampoo bowls. They don't have the rubber neck support in the bowls, and I just felt like I kept sliding down in the chair and it made me think too hard and not be able to enjoy the shampooing experience. I will definitely come back to see her on these days that I am feeling lazy. I just want to be pampered a little bit. I ended up having her flat iron as well. Blowout alone was $65 and with flat iron was $80 total.

I got my haircut, for the first time in 5 years, by Marina, and I could not be happier! I found…read morethis salon through yelp, after seeing they had many great reviews for handling very long hair. Marina was so friendly and welcoming, as well as very detailed about what it was I wanted. I felt very comfortable with letting her do her thing. She absolutely impressed me! Arax helped with my face framing, and another lovely lady (I missed her name) did my blowout. Everyone was so nice and supportive. They hyped me up after everything was done and made me feel absolutely beautiful. The salon itself was very cute and intimate. A warm, welcoming, clean setting, and everyone in there seemed very sweet as well. I will definitely continue to have Marina do my hair from here on out! Very pleased!

Definitely Not Worth It…read more I honestly don't understand how this salon has 128 reviews and every single one is 5 stars on Google. My experience was completely different. I asked for a French bob and showed the stylist a picture. I left with what looked like a mushroom haircut. For what I was charged, I expected a lot better. Then there was the pricing. The website advertised "Cut and Style $90." I was charged $150 because I was later told styling was a separate charge. When I questioned it, I was told there was a notice at the bottom of the mirrors saying styling was extra. I never saw that notice before or during my appointment, and I was not given an itemized receipt explaining the additional $60 charge. If styling costs an additional $60, that should be made very clear before the customer agrees to the service, not explained afterward. So, in my experience: disappointing haircut, surprising pricing, and definitely not the $150 experience I expected. A barber could have done a better job for $25. I won't be returning.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but I felt people should see what $110 got me here…read more I had to stop the service mid-appointment because basic nail prep was not being done. I work with my hands for a living, and my nails genuinely needed proper cleaning and prep before tips were applied. Instead, I found myself having to repeatedly ask for basic prep work while being made to feel uncomfortable for speaking up. The tips were then applied with excessive glue/product underneath the nails, leaving thick chunks underneath that make the nails difficult to properly clean. When I expressed concern, I was told the glue "had to be there" to make the nails strong. I have been getting my nails done for decades and have never had a technician argue with me for not wanting large globs of hardened glue underneath my nails. When I said I wanted to stop the service, I was told "let me fix it," but the issues were never actually corrected. The nail lengths and shapes were inconsistent, the filing/shaping was uneven, and there were visible imperfections, debris, and rough edges throughout the work. I also had concerns about sanitation. The UV lamp being used appeared dirty and damaged, and the drill/e-file bits looked visibly unclean between clients, which made me increasingly uncomfortable during the appointment. I've attached photos so people can judge the quality for themselves.

Ruzanna was an absolute joy. She was friendly, sweet and a warm vibe. I told her exactly what I…read morewanted and she executed it perfectly and efficiently. She didn't cut hair too short, which some hairdressers like to do. In less than an hour, I was walking out with bouncy, shiny layers. Very happy with how healthy my hair looks.

I even added the playlist to my Spotify. I can't wait to see her in month or so. I already booked the appointment! I'm so excited to keep going from dark brunette to champagne blonde!

I happened to find Ani a few years ago when I had a Groupon for A La Mode Hair Studio, and I've…read morebeen going to her ever since. I'm proud of how far she has come, opening her own amazing salon. She is the real deal. I have never had a hair stylist who was so honest, skilled, and such a unique spirit. I originally went to Ani with straightened, fine brown hair in hopes of highlights and a better cut for my hair type. Upon her expert suggestions and great eye, she gradually got me to a highlighted golden blonde color without at all damaging my hair along the way. My hair has so much more curl and volume now as well. I have fully embraced the blonde and my curls and have never looked back. I'm usually lazy about booking appointments and was only seeing her every 2-3 months. By the time I would be in the styling chair my roots were all grown out and I was in a serious need of some assistance. In December I switched to her $44/month roots and toner membership and it's been great so far. No more embarrassing roots! iColorHair is in a great location, right across from the super delicious Porto's. The space is spacious, clean and inviting, but Ani is the real reason for giving this place a try. There is never a dull moment with Ani and she is a master of her craft.

First of all, super loved the very chill and almost family-like vibe of the salon. All the other stylists were so fun to talk to, like older sisters! And Jenni herself was so personable, easy to talk to and vibe with! When you're with someone for 3+ hours, you want to get along with them! She was very straightforward about what she could and couldn't do since my hair was technically darker than it should be, but I trusted her 100% and have no regrets. :) I'm so so lucky to be able to have someone like her close to home and will be going to her for all future coloring needs!!
