From the front, it was very uneven. From the sides, it was very choppy. I was nervous throughout the haircut because the guy was using techniques I've never seen before, lol. I understand it's $25+ tips and you get what you pay for. So I really wasn't expecting much, but I would say this is one of the worst haircut I got. Perhaps I got a different person from everyone else here, but I feel misled by all the positive reviews and should've known better when there weren't any pictures. Luckily I asked them to leave it long enough so I can still tie it up. If you're looking to get a male haircut, I think it's fine based on the two guys before me.

Notable highlights: * I mean it when I say friendly; I called on a Sunday evening and she let me book for the next day morning. Her good English means she can serve anyone but she does prefer Mandarin (which I can barely communicate in haha). For what it's worth, she also accepts Chinese-English hybrid languages. In English, she may sound uncertain or hesitant but I think it just means you're speaking too quickly; I tend to speak at 50 mph. * The haircut is about as perfect as it gets. I'm not ever really certain how to describe the haircut I want ("just cut it shorter" haha), but the owner made it work! Despite the vague instructions and my inability to describe any further. I would absolutely come back. I'm not just saying this either -- I came back myself! This is now my second time here, and it won't be my last.

In my defense, I need someone closer to home and with a bit more availability in their schedule...plus, have you seen the magic that is Eric's work with these colors?! I think I'm ready to take this step to a new stylist and that stylist's name is Eric Gutierrez. My friend recommended Eric after I saw how amazing her hair looked. The perfect shade of mushroom brown. She said, "You know how you show a stylist a picture and you want your hair to look exactly like the picture? That's Eric." TRUER WORDS HAVE NEVER BEEN SPOKEN! I had gone from super blonde to a faded brown (after trying to go dark) because I was ready to quit my blonde-Asian-girl-days and was not happy with the faded color. I knew I didn't want to go blonde again and I wanted to try something dark but different. Enter: dark denim blue. Or maybe dark silvery blue? Steel blue? I don't know, but I showed Eric one picture and then another one and then another one and basically said "yah something like that?!" My friend was right: my hair turned out exactly how I wanted it in the picture(s). I am sold! Also: Eric was so sweet to run and grabbed me a cup of hot tea when I started having a massive coughing attack while my head was in the sink. So embarrassed that I was hacking up a lung but so grateful for the kindness!

The Ultimate Review: From Stranger to Family "For the…read morelongest time, this place was just a blur in the background of my daily life. I passed by it constantly, always buried in my phone or rushing to my next commitment, never giving it a second thought. But today was different. Something--call it a gut feeling or a stroke of luck--told me to finally stop, turn around, and go inside. I had reached my breaking point with other shops; everywhere I went, I was met with disappointment. I'd walk in with a specific request, and time after time, they either couldn't do it or gave me something completely different. Today, I decided to give this shop a shot, and it was the best decision I've made in a long time. The moment I opened the door, the atmosphere hit me. Even though the shop was at full capacity and every barber was deep in their work with clients, the energy was incredibly welcoming. They didn't treat me like an interruption; they treated me like a guest they had been waiting for. Looking back, I feel like I wasted so much time at other places. If I had known that a shop existed where you could get this kind of reception, I would have been a loyal regular from day one. But the real magic happened once I got into the chair. I've never experienced anything like it. From the very first 'hello' until the moment I stood up to leave, the conversation was nonstop. It wasn't that awkward, forced small talk you usually get at a barbershop; it was genuine, effortless, and deep. We talked about everything, and the connection was so instant that it felt like I was sitting in my own living room. I didn't just feel like a customer; I felt like I was home. By the end of the session, I realized I hadn't just found a talented professional--I had found a true friend. Honestly, the way we clicked, I know it won't be long before they aren't just a friend, but someone I consider a part of my family. To give this place a 2 or 3-star review would be an absolute lie. I would be doing a disservice to the honesty of this experience. The shop itself is top-tier--immaculately clean, organized, and filled with a team of people who clearly take pride in their craft. You can see the dedication in everyone working there, whether they are focused on a fade or a complex style. This is my first time ever writing a review on Yelp, and I'm doing it because this place earned it. They took my request--the one other places couldn't handle--and executed it perfectly. I walked out of that shop with a fresh look that had me feeling like a K-pop idol ready for the cameras. If you have even a little bit of time, please, do yourself a favor and try this place out. You might go in looking for a haircut, but you'll leave with a boost in confidence and a new sense of belonging. All of the people here are friendly, the results are stunning, and the vibe is unmatched. I came in as a stranger, but I'm leaving as a lifelong customer. Highly, highly recommended!

Unfortunately as much as I hate giving any negative reviews to a local small business, especially…read moreone in my community, haircuts are very personal and finding a trustworthy hairstylist who listens is really important, especially when bringing your preteen daughters or children for their first stylist haircut. With my sister and niece visiting from out of town, I recommended this salon based on the reviews and friendliness of the owner, Joan (sp?). (The signage is spelled differently than on Yelp.) There's usually a wait on weekends too so it seemed an easy recommendation. Together we all stopped by the salon and asked Joan for an appointment with her next day for my niece. When my sister arrived with my niece, Joan was still busy with another client, so referred them to Sam. Based on all the reviews here and our family's experience having gone to many, many Chinese owned salons, female haircuts include a wash unless otherwise requested in the $20 price. Instead, for $25, my niece received a few sprays from a spray bottle (my sister was never given an option and would have happily paid more) and a cut way too short, despite being shown a photos and her mom twice confirming with Sam to make sure to give her long bangs mid-nose like the photo. He confirmed he knew how to do it and then immediately proceeded to make his very first cut above her eyebrows! The expression of horror on her face was painfully obvious and it was too late to do anything about it. There's no fixing bangs cut too short. For the rest of the cut, my niece tried to keep from bursting into tears while my sister's heart fell into a million pieces. They paid and left and as soon as possible and once inside my door, my niece couldn't stop crying. My heart broke too as they don't have a Chinese salon close to their home and entrusted me to help them make a decision. Living in the area, I love giving them the opportunity to explore Chinatown and our community here whenever they visit. I even told my niece she'd get to experience a great hair wash and head massage, typical for Chinese salons, and they came highly recommended. I now deeply regret the recommendation. I had seen the photos my niece picked out for herself earlier, and the long bangs should have been no problem even for an inexperienced stylist. I went to the salon with my wife and informed Joan of what happened and disappointment as I had requested an appointment with her and my sister confirmed and reconfirmed with the photo for long bangs. My niece was still crying when I left and still upset when I returned. I would have been too. Joan sincerely apologized and said the next appointment would be better. But unfortunately, after this experience and with the many other salons within a few blocks, we won't be back. I truly wanted to give my niece a good first hair salon experience. I gave 3 stars as the overall cut was good and owner is nice and apologized, but it's not at all what she wanted and no wash. My niece rates 1 star.
