I'm glad she can get this Asian girl as blonde as she can get without destroying it. I trust Brenda because she knows what she's talking about and every color she put me on looks bomb. She knows how to work her magic and she knows what's best to keep your hair healthy so you don't kill the crap out of it. From what I've learned in the past, you need a stylist that uses the right products! Brenda appreciates her clients so you don't feel like a burden asking for appointments (strangely enough, I've experienced that with a stylist), she knows what's good for your hair type (another stylist that didn't know my hair and couldn't make me blonde), and she has the best products (again, another stylist that made my hair turned bright yellow). Anyway, no other professional hairstylist can work that type of magic like Brenda! One last thing, love thy hairstylist and don't give them a hard time by box dying your hair pitch black and then expecting platinum blonde on your first session. Trust me with all I've experienced, all hair stylist/colorist would want you to understand this. I was lucky that my hair was already bleached blonde. I've posted a few of my favorite colors - blonde/gray was my all time favorite and I had so much compliments!

The extensions were the perfect finishing touch and blended so seamlessly with my natural hair.

She is kind, easy to talk to, and really listens to what you want. She is so in tune with your hair goals and brings them to life. When I told her how much I loved the way she styled my hair, she walked me through how to recreate it at home, which was such a nice bonus. Her cuts are next level and her salon is adorable. The whole experience feels easy, elevated, and genuinely enjoyable. I will absolutely be booking with her again.

In a way, I don't want to write this review because this place is a little hidden gem in the world…read moreof hair salons. However, they do deserve to be bragged about!! After many extension consultations, I came to Dana and her cute little salon as my last stop. Other salons were either just not willing to make this a great experience for me, or definitely quoted too many extra services and pricing. After the initial extensions were put in, the stylist's first words were: "Oops, it's a little crooked. If you don't mind it, just try and pull some hair to cover the bald spot." Wait...WHUT?!? You know you screwed up but you want me to be okay with it? Extensions are $$$ & I had saved money so I could do cover my pixie cut as it was growing out. I left the salon because she said she couldn't do anything more that day. Can I tell you, having 6+" of the right side of my shaved head bare because the stylist misjudged where she placed the extensions is not a good look! I texted her within a few hours begging her to fix it and she was very upset that she was going to have to come in the next day on her day off because I was upset. Again, wtf? You goofed and now you're mad because you have to fix it? I was surprised she would want anyone to see her work looking like a disaster. After all, that is for calling card. I let her know I wasn't mad, but I had to beg her to fix it. When I went in the next day, she was frustrated and said she was just going to take them out. She wasn't willing to fix it. I paid how much to install these and she was going to take them out and not bother to fix the problem? Luckily the owner of the salon offered some of her extra tape in extensions. She saw the problem and while trying not to interfere, she offered a solution. That is when I decided to search for a new stylist. Dana responded quickly to my online request. When I arrived at her cute little salon, there was another consult ahead of me. I was listening to Dana discuss that person's needs and she was so professional, super knowledgeable, and accommodating! It immediately put me at ease and in a positive and hopeful mind frame that my situation could be fixed by Dana. As previous stylists pointed out, Dana noted my extensions were a bit messy but she definitely could fix it and make the whole hairstyle look fuller, more normal than it did, and for a fraction of what many other stylists were charging. Dana was not the most expensive, but neither was her quote the least expensive, but right in the middle, but her customer service, level of knowledge, and warm and friendly demeanor puts her way over the top of all the other salons I've been to. Trust me, that was over six salons! Then, the best news was that she could do my hair right there and then! I was the last appointment she had booked and she and her new stylist, Nikki, had time. I was over the moon! I did not have to put up with my funky, mullet looking hair another day. She took apart what I had already installed and added a few more tape ins and my hair looks natural, like it's my own, super cute now, and full volume! Not just a string of hair attached to my head. I am no longer self-conscious about my beads showing and having a thin set of extensions. I cried from sheer Joy as this was how it was supposed to be when I first thought about having extensions. Dana brought my vision to life and it was no more expensive than my first set! In my career, I have high visibility working with donors and large events and I always need to look professional. I'm not shy about telling people I have extensions especially when I have a pixie one day, and 24 hours later I have chin length hair LOL Another awesome addition to this story is Dana also does color so it is going to be a One-Stop shop for me! I know I know, this is a super long review and I edited it down already! But it is important to know I did do my due diligence and research and Dana was by far the most knowledgeable, down to earth, professional, most experienced stylist that I met with. I also referred her to my other stylists up in LA, Hawaii, and Washington for when they have clients who move to Orange County. Dana and Nikki are amazing! I'm embarrassed but I believe I told them I loved them at least five or six times. If you are in the market for new extensions or just maintenance, I honestly say to come straight to Dana and don't bother meeting with all the other salons in the Long Beach area. I've done all the leg work for you! PS if you have never had extensions done, absolutely come to Dana. She listens to what you want, tells you what she can do, and offers so many ideas, suggestions, and solutions. She also knows the best type of extensions for your needs. However, do your research. Extensions are not cheap. Yes, it's like a car payment or half your rent for a month LOL. My photos only show the result of what Dana did. It was too embarrassing to take photos of my before look!
