Lots of detail below, but in summary: "Mania" Maya is not familiar with curly/wavy hair texture and I had a painful, demeaning experience as a result of sitting in her chair. This review reflects my experience with her, and not any of the other stylists/staff or salon as a whole. I booked with "Mania" Maya due to seeing her name mentioned positively in past reviews - I'd never been to this salon before, but was looking for a local Drybar-adjacent service to have my hair styled before an international trip. My hair stylist is located in Pasadena, and I wanted a closer service. I have curly/wavy hair - when I let it dry naturally, I brush it after showering but not again until I'm ready to wash it. I scrunch it up to encourage the curl. That being said, I arrived with my wavy hair that hadn't been brushed. Upon arrival, Maya asked if we were washing my hair (which was part of the service I selected, so I thought it strange that she asked). When it was clear she wasn't going to brush my hair before washing it, I asked for a brush to do it myself. I rushed to brush it which inevitably still left some tangles. Maya washed my hair and immediately began brushing it without applying any detangling product. This led to one of the worst knots I've ever had, which she readily insisted we had to cut. I had to advocate to work on pulling the hair apart myself, and asked for product to be applied. She did not try to apply product first, she did not insist on trying to preserve what we could of my hair, I as the client had to do this. I would've lost a larger portion of my hair otherwise. She tried telling me it was okay because it was in the back of my head, and wouldn't be seen. I have never had any issues getting my hair done before, and I told her this. She asked me if I brush my hair everyday, which leads me to believe she is not familiar with curly hair. She insisted detangling product would not allow the style to last (which may/may not be true, but clearly I needed some product). She lectured me on how to keep my hair hydrated, how I should style it/sleep in it when I leave it natural, and shook her head every time she encountered another knot. She later asked me how old I was, which given the context, felt condescending. As if I must be too young to understand how to care for my hair. She didn't explain why she asked my age. Honestly, with how long and painful it was to try to reduce the knot, I was debating on leaving with wet hair. I was dismayed. I stayed for the full service, but would have to be a masochist to ever return to her chair. Another note, though less important, is that I was never offered water or anything to drink. I heard another stylist offer a client this, which makes me believe it should be normal here. Again, this review is reflective of my experience with this particular stylist and is not a reflection of any others. I cannot recommend Maya.

Diana did an updo for me for a wedding, and she absolutely nailed it. She was fun, friendly, and really took the time to ask questions to make sure it was exactly what I wanted. Somehow she made it look like I had twice the amount of hair, and it lasted flawlessly all night. On my way out, I asked about getting false eyelashes, and Mia was able to squeeze me in (lifesaver!). She picked the perfect lashes, then went above and beyond by doing my brows and eyeliner too. Everything looked perfect and really pulled my whole look together. The whole salon has such a fun, upbeat vibe, and everyone there was incredibly accommodating. they get my highest recommendation!

Sadly I moved out of state a year ago and tried several stylists in the state I live in now, and things when from bad to worse. I was used to Julie's expertise not only in coloring but also cutting my hair. Nobody could even compare . After my last stylist visit I literally ended up with hair that looked like cotton candy. It was terrible, i was beyond upset. When our hair doesn't look good, no matter how good your make up is or how cute your clothes are, nothing looks good. My husband suggested why not go back and see Julie? We are only a six hour drive away and so I did and I'm beyond happy and grateful I did. With just one visit Julie was able to revive my hair, it was silky and shiny again, my color turned out beautifully and my hair cut was so perfect, as always, that all I have to do is wash, dry and style and with a shake of my head my hair just falls perfectly into place. I now come to see Julie every so many weeks and I don't care how long my drive is. Julie is the best stylist I've ever had. Her expertise and talent is unmatched. I love the color she uses, not only does it look great but my scalp feels fantastic. Having an appointment with Julie is like coming to spend time with family. The atmosphere in her salon is so relaxing , and if that doesn't get you her head massage most certainly will. The hair color she uses is stellar. If you are like me and have thin, fragile hair please give Julie a try, you will not be disappointed . To me Julie is the best kept secret of SCV. Thank you Julie for all you do!

IF YOU WANT TO RISK IT STILL AFTER READING THE BAD REVIEWS DO SOMETHING WITH FRAUD PROTECTION. BECAUSE SHE WILL TAKE YOUR MONEY AND RUN! She was responsive until I booked my appointment and sent a $150 deposit for makeup for spring family photos. Then after kept randomly texting me asking if I could change the time a few days later. Which I thought was weird and made Me nervous. It ended up raining on the day of my family photos and I gave her a weeks notice that the date may need to change because they are outside. I gave her many optional dates from my photographer. None of them worked for her. Always an excuse. She had my money mind you. I didn't see these other bad yelp reviews about her either! So I said ok how about you do my maternity photo makeup in July. (It's March at this point!). That's plenty of time. Told her they were on a Tuesday. She said she had some on call thing for a clothing company on Tuesdays, can I move my shoot to Thursday. So I did. Got the fake "all booked babe!". Textbook love bombing covert narcissist btw. Flash forward to this past Friday. I text her to see if she's ready for next week and I get "oh shoot the clothing company moved shoots to Thursday's! Can you move your photos to Tuesday?" Thank god I reached out! She never told me anything. I only found out because I asked! I said NO. My husband adjusted his work schedule to accommodate this day, and I cannot tell the photographer to move my photos to four days away?!?! Who does that?! To someone who is 7 months pregnant?! She is a typical social Climbing narcissist in LA who has no integrity, and will drop you like a fly for anything that is more money. She does not care that you are pregnant or let's say getting married. Wherever the money is that comes first, not her pre booked commitments with deposits!! To all my pregnant mama's, please do not get stressed out like I did. Do not use her. She did this to another pregnant mom below! She is a flake. She will cancel your appointment with out notice if something bigger presents itself to her. Is that a risk you want to take for your special day? **UPDATE** After I posted this review a few hours later she text me "I sent it" and finally zelled me back my $150. After texting her for 4 days to please give it back. What a nightmare. I just can't get over how someone could do this to someone! let alone to a pregnant woman! Only work with people that have a solid track record of integrity and consistency. I learned my lesson the hard way.
