After getting a balayage from Sophia! Amazing

Stefanie V.

Sophia is my faveeee!! she's done my color for the last couple of years and nevvvvvver disappoints!! The first few times she did my balayage and it turned out perfect after becoming obsessed with being a blonde, I asked her to give me an all over bleach and tone and it was exactly what I wanted. She took her time and patience to make sure that my hair was going to be exactly what I wanted, and that the tone was spot on! I've never been so blonde in my life, and she made it look perfect! I've received so many compliments on my hair color, can't wait to get my hair done again! It's also a huge plus that she's the sweetest, and talking to her while getting my hair done is the best! It's one thing to love the final product of your hair service, but when you find someone you connect with, it's an all over amazing experience!! 100% recommend Sophia!!!

Megan S.

I LOVE coming to this hair stylist for all my hair care needs. She's helped change my color, going from regular black to a subtle dark chocolate balayage with caramel lowlights, making it look still super natural and very pretty (thankfully just in time for graduation pictures). I love how she knows exactly what color and tone best fits my hair & is always able to deliver. She's also helped trim my dead ends and thinned out my hair to make it feel super light. Not only is she talented at what she does but she is also super sweet & gentle overall. I highly recommend! My go to hair stylist and colorist!! Thank you Sophia ~

Sophia is the best! I got my hair cut and colored by Sophia in June. This was my first time getting my hair colored and I asked for an ashy blonde balayage. She made the 5 hours go by so quickly and made me feel so comfortable with her bright personality! I highly recommended that you check her out!!!! She was also very professional. You will not be disappointed!!!!

Allie H.

Sophia is MY GIRL. Truly cannot put into words how talented she is. She transformed my hair exactly the way I wanted it, and is just an overall awesome human being. Won't go to anyone else for color! Highly, highly recommend

Linda H.

Highly recommend Sophia for all your coloring needs! I was really hesitant and nervous when getting my hair colored for the first time, but when I saw the results I was in love. I asked for a cool brown balayage that was subtle and Sophia delivered. She did exactly what I asked for and blended the colors so well! Sophia listened to all my requests and even took extra time to recommend me products for my newly colored hair and made sure the color was what I wanted. She is also very sweet and easy to be around! For someone who is so young, Sophia has the skills of a experienced hair colorist and stylist. It's been a few months since I've gotten my hair colored and people still compliment my balayage because of how well the colors were blended! You will NOT be disappointed with her.

I've been getting my hair dyed at Sophia's for over a year now, and I've never gotten so many compliments on my hair than this last year. She is highly skilled at blonding even the darkest and most effed up box dyed hair. Sophia will take genuine detailed care of you from the moment you walk in and walk out. I've gotten my hair dyed to blonde, then pink, and now blue! And there's barely any breakage in my hair so far, since she uses effective but gentle products that won't force you to cut it short every time you dye it. Seriously, she's good at what she does. Put your trust (and hair) in her hands and she will make you beautiful

Going from blonde back to my natural hair color

Sarah S.

The best thing about Sophia is she will not sacrifice the healthiness of your hair. You won't have crunchy blonde if you want to go blonde! She cares about her client's hair and will tell you exactly how many appointments needed to get you where you want to be, all while keeping your hair alive. She's knowledgeable and explains what she's doing. Sophia deals with a wide range of clients from college to mature hair so don't be afraid to ask her what you want and the cost! Just show her a picture of what you want and talk to her, she's real sweet. I went from virgin hair to blonde back to my original and my hair feels and grows the same. I come to her for all my hair colors and cuts :)

Yvonne L.

BEST!! I found her through IG and looked through all the photos she had of her clients and decided to try it out. Keep in mind, this was my first time actually going out and being bold with the color, and she definitely made me feel so happy with it. Sophia knew what she was doing and made sure you felt very comfortable! Definitely would go back to her again!

Samantha D.

I've been coming to Sophia for almost a year now. I found out about her through a mutual friend who posted about her on ig and I love how her hair turned out! My overall goal was a ashy blonde and she really made sure we did it in a way that wouldn't damage my hair and I couldn't be happier. I've gotten so many complements even months after getting it done, I highly highly recommend her She's also SUCH a sweetheart so it's always a fun time when she does my hair

Sebastian V.

GREAT SERVICE! I met Soph at Toni and Guy a few years ago and she has been my stylist since! She is friendly, energetic, and very talented at what she does. Every time I need platinum, she's the one! You the best :)

Joy Y.

Been getting my hair done by Sophia for years now. She gave me the blonde hair that I've always wanted. And recently she dyed my hair brown and I've been loving it too. If you're looking to get your hair done I highly recommend you get an appointment with Sophia.

Katherine C.

My ONLY hair stylist for over a year now. Absolutely love Sophia. She is really patient as well as adventurous with my hair. It took me a few sessions to get me the blonde I am today but we did it a steady pace so my hair would stay healthy. Her color melts are magical and is literally the best girl to make you blonde especially if you're Asian. She is really gentle and I also love the way she styles my hair after a few hours of coloring. She is also always recommending the best products to keep your color long lasting and your hair shiny. Absolutely recommend Sophia to EVERYONE!!

Gee L.

Thank you Sophia for making my hair look amazing once again. I'm usually really picky about my hair and who touches it, because when you ask someone to trim and then they cut more than what you asked for. But NOT Sophia she will cut style and make your hair look and feel amazing. Sophia is very genuine and sweet! Book her for your next hair appointment!!

Sophia is amazing!!! She dyed my hair around 6 months ago. I came to her after my hair got dyed by another hair stylist - it was a bad decision to trust a different stylist, and I wish I came to Sophia first!! I came to Sophia with my hair orange/brassy and not blended from a previous hair stylist. I have super difficult hair to work with, bc of my thick and damaged hair. But she made the process seem so easy and is also so sweet and friendly, plus recommends some great hair products :') she made my hair look AMAZING after we finished our session, she fixed my hair and I was so happy with my hair. It was blended and I lovedddd the color too! I'm still in love w my hair six months months after!!! Come to Sophia for your hair, she's the best! read more

I went to Sophia for the first time in May and I will never go to anyone else ever again. Ladies, she knows what she's doing. I went to her with virgin black hair and told her to make me blonde for the summer and that's exactly what she did. She delivered. She didn't BS me and say it'll take 5+ sessions. She got me to become the exact blonde I wanted. She's a chemist!! And it doesn't hurt that she loves having conversations with you and getting to know you. So you're never bored read more

Sophia is the best. She helped me go back to a light blonde balayage without damaging my hair. She's super well informed and helped to educate me on the process of bleaching and toning. She also helped to trim off any split ends and add dimension to my hair. Even after the styling she helped me find products that I could use to maintain my balayage!!! Highly recommend her she's super friendly and is super talented (~: make sure to check her out !! read more

I've had horrible experiences in the past with bleaching my hair (can't get away from brassy tones!) but the exp with Sophia isn't one of them. She was friendly and meticulous, and super patient with every strand of my thick hair. I went in not 100% sure what I wanted, but she was professional about what would work well with my skin tone and vibe. So so so happy with the result, and will be going back to her for toning and further lightening in the future! read more

What a breath of FRESH AIR Sophia is!! After years of trying to find the right hair colorist and ended up with either damaged hair, a color that I wasn't looking for, needing to go back several times for corrections, etc. Sophia has solved all my hair woes. Sophia is a professional on all accounts. She will communicate with you before your appointment to make sure you and her are on the same page and all expectations are understood before you arrive. She is incredibly detail oriented and with such ease that I feel so comfortable sitting in her chair. She has taken my hair from black to blonde while maintaining the integrity of it, and has put the health of my hair first (despite me wanting to go platinum blonde immediately!) She has recommended product specifically for me which has helped keep my hair looking and feeling healthy. And she is just a joy to be around! We have great conversation and time with her passes by with comfort and ease. I've never been so happy with someone as I have with Sophia and am consistently grateful that my friend introduced me to her! If you are looking for an incredibly knowledgeable, talented, professional, and sweet hair colorist - Sophia is your girl!! Worth every. Single. Penny. :) read more

Sophia is awesome! I should've gone to her first for my hair but I unfortunately didn't and was left with highlights that I had not asked for. I was not happy with my hair. I shared my concerns with her saying I never wanted to dye my hair again and was afraid to damage it even more she was very positive in saying there was hope for it and I could get the look I was definitely going for in the beginning. She corrected my hair and I loved it!! I now know who I can count on with my hair she made me feel very comfortable and she's super sweet. Totally recommend her!! read more

Finding the salon was easy and there was parking right out front, which made it even better. I stay in South Pasadena on weekends at my boyfriend's house, so I decided to give it a try. EJ was incredibly kind and welcoming. I arrived a few minutes early while he was finishing with another client, and he saw me right at my appointment time. He also offered drinks and snacks, which I really appreciated because I definitely needed the caffeine boost that day. He washed my hair and gave me the trim I desperately needed, removing all my split ends while still keeping my hair long just like I asked. I'm always nervous about losing too much length, but he really listened and delivered exactly what I wanted. His station was also very cute and calming, with plants around the mirror and a dream catcher. I deal with anxiety, so I really appreciated his relaxing energy during the appointment. I usually get my trims done in Beverly Hills with my longtime stylist, and I was pleasantly surprised that the price here was about the same -- $120, which is pretty standard for a good trim in Beverly Hills as well. Since I happened to be in the area, I thought "why not?" and I'm really glad I did because it turned out to be such a pleasant experience.

I initially went to my appointment thinking I should cut the ends to help it grow faster, but ZZ took a very careful look at my hair and advised against cutting so that I could achieve my goals of growing my hair out faster. After she toned my blotchy hair to a beautiful chocolate brown color, I didn't even feel the need to cut any of it as it felt SO healthy, I was blown away!! I could tell her advice was coming from such sincere care, and in just one appointment I already trust her more than 100% with my hair. Thank you for coming to Pasadena, ZZ!!!

I've had my make up done multiple times for weddings and such by other people but I was never satisfied. (Actually that's an understatement. I hated it haha) I did my trial with Yuri for my engagement shoot and I could not have been more happy! She's amazing! She really knows how to work with the features you got without over doing it, yet making you look fabulous in pictures. Her and her team of girls did hair and make up for me and my 5 bridesmaids for the wedding and everyone LOVED how they looked! That's hard to do with 6 picky girls! She sweet, she's real, she's accommodating, she's honest, and a perfectionist. Everything you would want in a hairstylist/ makeup artist. I would definitly recommend her and go back to her as my hairstylist!

Yuri did my makeup and hair the day of my wedding, and I LOVED it!…read more I've always been very hesitant about having people do my makeup and hair, as I'm, like most girls, very particular about the way my hair is parted, eyeliner is drawn, eyebrows are filled, etc. Yuri customized my makeup to my face and understood my preferences on color with minimal guidance. Even my mother, who is extremely difficult to please, complimented my makeup and hair. My makeup lasted all day and night and photographed extremely well. I would definitely recommend Yuri!

Vanilla assured me the first time I visited that it was not just a promotion for the grand opening and four months later, it's still true! The space is great and really well-lit. They have areas for manicures, pedicures, and I think even permanent jewelry. It's like a one-stop shop for self-care. I came in for a haircut and was offered a drink right away. Vanilla was awesome. I had an idea of what I wanted, and he was able to take that and give me a more elevated version of it. He definitely understood the assignment! I already got a lot of positive compliments on the new haircut. During the haircut, Vanilla took me over to the high-tech massage chairs. It was so nice laying there while getting my head massaged and shampooed; I think I actually fell asleep. I left feeling relaxed and recharged. It still feels too good to be true, but I was reassured that the massage and wine will always be complimentary. There were no extra charges. The salon also has their own parking lot, though I was able to park on the streets without any issues.

I also like that there are only two chairs there and it felt more personal and less factory like. And I know she will be doing my nails when I book. All in all a great experience. Highly recommended and will go back again.

She asked questions and listened to my likes at the beginning of our session, and she customized styling my hair based on my preferences. And for the first time ever, I actually liked how my hair was styled after my cut; I usually never do after a dry cut/curly cut because stylists usually put too heavy products in my hair which weighs it down. All to say, I had a great experience with Jessie. She gives wonderful, positive vibes; and I will be booking with her again in the future!

I told Melissa he's a high schooler and also needs a sustainable cut/style. I should have never walked away leaving my underage kid there. I was really counting on Melissa to figure out if the look he wanted was possible with his hair texture after she got in his hair. When my kiddo came out, he had a fro with undefined curls, I was shocked and I could tell that my son was not happy. He said he thought there would be further styling or cutting but that did not happen. My teen doesn't quite yet have his voice to speak up. Needless to say when we got home, he was in tears and he had to stay home instead of going to a dinner event. I called the salon the next day and spoke to Angie. I sent her the pictures of what he wanted and what he ended up with. She said they would find a solution immediately. However it's been over a week of text messages that have not been returned. None of my voice mails have been returned. I even walked in to the salon and Angie was out to lunch. I was told Nicole would call me back. That has not happened. I managed to talk to Angie and she promised she would talk to Nicole that day and get me a response. It's now been over 7 days and this has not been resolved. We walked away paying Melissa $345 including tip. And another $100 in products. Seems like we need a call back and definitely need a redo which they advertise as their policy if there is unsatisfactory service or a refund. I hope that if Melissa reads this or the owners, they might consider growing a conscience in the treatment we have received.

I asked her to make sure she maintained my side walls and said I was ok with them needing to be longer if the length I specified would mean she had to file my side walls. This didn't happen. Side walls were filed off. 2. Nails look "ski sloped". 3. Set already looks grown out. It's been less than 24 hrs. 4. Salon was visibly dirty and tools were obviously being reused. Gloss is now a skip. Sadly, this was the end of the road for me with Gloss.

So you're not only talk to her about hair but so many things else.

Sally is your girl when it comes to your hair needs!…read more So let me tell you something about myself: when I'm bored, I tend to cut my bangs and then I mess them up to the point where people question my life choices. Sally, on the other hand, helped save my bangs when I thought there was no point of return. She also cut the rest of my savage- and uneven-looking hair and made it look normal (phew!). She knew how to work with my thick, Asian hair and she was able to tag-team with her assistant, Eden, to make sure that the whole mishap with my hair would not happen again. I'll definitely swing by when I'm ready to commit to the balayage since my hair needs more dimension; I just can't be too lazy when it comes to taking care of my hair. If you are interested in balayage, you can definitely check her portfolio on her IG - her handle is: bookwithsally. Thanks Sally and Eden!

I liked how Yvonne did not stick me under a heater just to speed up the bleaching process and also included bonding treatment to the overall service. Even though I went a little beyond what I was expecting to pay, I'm so happy with the way my hair turned out; both cut and color. It was exactly what I envisioned, if not better. Despite bleaching, my hair still feels so soft and smooth. I received so many compliments on the color of my hair and the dimensions the babylights brought forward.
