    Sadia S.

    Great customer service. Veka is a great listener. She really tried to understand what you want before starting the process. I come here regularly for touch ups with my color, as well as cuts and hair product. My hair has never looked better!

    Glam Studio - Lauren & client after another happy Brazilian Blowout :)

    I wish there was a way to give no stars…read more I booked with Lauren at Glam Studios via their online booking system and got confirmation twice via text about my appointment. It was my daughter's prom and she needed an updo. Unfortunately Lauren sends me the attached text message a few hours before our appointment and says she cannot see us as "her booking system never updated and she was unavailable". I couldn't believe she contacted me hours prior to cancel our appointment! Ridiculous to see she also charges 40% of the fee if you were to cancel prior. So beware booking with her as she may not be available the day of.

    Glam Studio is located in studio #6 in the Sola Salon. There is no signage on the door, so I had a…read morehard time finding it, until I researched online again to try and identify which unit # it was in. My appointment was at 7 pm, but when I opened the door to the studio, the stylist, Lauren, asked me to wait outside on a bench around the corner since she was with another client. I wasn't called in until about 7:30. Lauren was friendly and talkative, and asked me some questions about how I normally style my hair and what I wanted to do with it. My requests were pretty simple, just a trim and some layers. I had purchased a Groupon that included cut, deep treatment, and styling. She asked if I wanted her to curl my hair to see what it would look like styled and I said yes (because styling was included with my Groupon). My hair cut was fine, nothing amazing, but not bad. I was disappointed with my experience for a few reasons. 1) I have never waited so long for a hair appointment after my scheduled time, and I was really hoping to be done sooner so I could go home and help put my kid to bed. 2) I normally get a hair wash before my hair cut at other places. I saw reviews on Groupon that they got a shampoo, but Lauren didn't wash my hair. It was a dry cut situation. 3) I was supposed to get a deep treatment, but didn't get that either. I thought the deep treatment was supposed to be a conditioning treatment of some sort after a shampoo, but I guess not. She did use some kind of spray (I think dry shampoo or hairspray?) and some oil for shine. 4) If you are one to prefer being around people that wear masks, you should know that Lauren doesn't wear a mask while working on your hair. There was another client in the studio that also didn't wear a mask.

    I must say that Maria Fajardo has a eye for Style. I met Maria in 2009, when I started working with…read moreher as a landlord, and Co-Worker (Massage Therapist). I was so very impressed at not only her hair cuts, but her eye for color as well. Given that I have curly hair, and a busy lifestyle, She has worked her magic on my hair, and has actually helped me to have a level of confidence, just knowing my hair looks great. Through out the years that I have gotten to know her, I have seen her love & passion not just for her Family, but her Co-Workers, Clients, & Community at large. If You are looking for a Fantastic HairStylist, who has Style & Talent, while making You feel Beatiful, Loved & Cherished. Seek out Maria Fajardo (Bellisima Salon, at the Corner of Lemon & Myrtle, in Beautiful Downtown Monrovia. You won't regret !!!

I did decide to get a blowout in the beginning of July because I had travel plans and wanted my hair done. I got to consult Maria and she gave me so much info on what it would do to my hair, how long it would typically last, and how to maintain/style it after. I went through with it and it is now November 9th, my hair is still styled and has grown so much since I last saw her! I would highly recommend her :)

    I went on a Sunday morning at 10am through ClassPass for a 60 mins. It's my first time at a head…read morespa. No one else was there which was kinda nice. When my scalp was examined, she mentioned my hair was oily so they'll use an oil-controlled shampoo which I liked the customization. I also didn't know how much your scalp can tell you about your lifestyle; the diagnosis was spot on. I don't know who I got but she was absolutely great! There was a language barrier but she used a translating app which I didn't mind at all. She turned on the massage chair which does your whole body and gave me a legit solid scalp, head, neck, shoulder, and chest massage with the perfect amount of pressure. She noticed how tight my neck and shoulders were and offered a longer massage on those parts (so grateful!). Since I don't wear makeup, she also massaged around my eyes and face which was much needed to relieve the head tension I had. Then she focused on my washing hair and other scalp treatments and more massage before blow drying my hair on the chair for the final scalp exam. It was very relaxing and enjoyed it greatly.

    I've been to about 3 different head spas now and this one had very nice and friendly service…read more It's more of a 4.5/5 star rating since I can't give half stars lol. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is because I wish I had more of a neck/shoulder massage as I've received those at other head spas & because my styling of hair was a little frizzy (I think maybe because of my hair type, they weren't used to styling it maybe). Now for the great things about this place! The ladies that helped my boyfriend and I were very kind and gave us both quality service. We both left feeling very satisfied and relaxed. I love that they did several cycles of washing, massaging, rinsing, and repeating on my scalp. Some of the products felt nice and refreshing (maybe tea tree or mint). The seats/beds had massagers built in which was awesome! I hadn't seen that at other spas before! Lastly I wanna mention I found them on Groupon and when I called to see if they had same day availability and mentioned Groupon, they said they could price match in person (assuming since Groupon takes a cut). I appreciated that and was happy to do so! Overall, I'd recommend this head spa (bonus points because the food in the area was GOOD).

I honestly needed a place like this after having a lot of product in my hair post-event, and this place did its job plus more. They have a very easy reservation system online through their website, although deposit is required. There seems to be enough staff for walk-ins too though. I opted for the royal deluxe without a facial to get more time for massage. This place is so well worth it. The lady was very kind working on me and actually surprisingly was able to find a lot of my knots across my neck and shoulder. I came in just for a quick scalp refresh but they easily won me over with the solid massage. They also do give out Molly Tea (milk tea, 70% sugar) to customers as an option. This is such a nice perk on their end. 100% I will be back in a few weeks for another solid head/neck massage!
