Kaju Hair - Hair Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Lily did exactly what I asked for and gave me great advice on what would look best for my face/head shape as well as styling tips. I'm very particular about my hair, so I was scared to try a new place, but for the quality of cut and expertise, this is my go to salon. Same results I would get at places where cuts are double the price. Highly recommend her! I believe she's available Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Saturday. read more

Kaju Hair - Haircut - Hair Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Stay away from this salon - worst experience ever. I got my hair cut today by the lady here (straight bangs, in her 40s-50s) and it was honestly the worst experience I've ever had. She completely ruined my hair and treated me horribly. I asked for my bangs to be cut to eyebrow length. She chopped them at least 3 cm above, then told me with a straight face it was "the same length." On top of that, she cut the middle section way too short, the sides uneven, and everywhere it should have been longer, she cut short instead. It looks messy and jagged -- like a dog bite, not a professional haircut. When I told her to stop, she reacted with anger. She ripped the cover off me so violently that my neck turned red. Her attitude was mean, dismissive, and downright unprofessional. This lady is careless, rough, and clearly doesn't respect her clients. If you care at all about your hair (or being treated decently), avoid her at all costs. read more

I would not recommend this salon for a men's haircut. I called earlier in the day to ask about the price for a men's haircut. I was quoted $30; however, upon arriving, the receptionist told me it would be $35. I decided to get the haircut anyway as it was only a $5 difference, and the salon had good reviews. I was paired with a stylist that clearly didn't have proper training. Upon prepping my hair, the stylist did not separate and clip my hair evenly. She then proceeded to cut my hair unevenly. I had to request for the haircut to stop as I was scared that the damage would be irreparable. My stylist then had to consult another stylist at the salon. The second stylist then attempted to correct the mistakes and salvage my hair. While the second stylist was cutting my hair, she was teaching my original stylist how to cut my hair. Mind you, I was not warned that my hair would be cut by an inexperienced stylist. Please refer to the picture. The back of my hair is still uneven. Overall, I feel scammed by the experience. I was misquoted the price on the phone and had the price changed upon arriving. I paid full price to have my hair used as a guinea pig for teaching. I was not warned that each stylist would have such drastic experience and training. If you come here, my only suggestion would be to know which stylist you want to cut your hair. Do not leave it up to chance like I did as I was a first time customer. I personally will never come back here. read more

Kaju Hair - Uneven haircut. Please be wary if you're getting a men's haircut here. - Hair Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I get a straight perm every year and have been getting one for the past 10 years. I've been to so many hair salons in the OC and LA before no one does my hair better than MJ at Kaju! She's been doing hair 10+ years in Korea and she's so knowledgeable and has the sense to cut my hair just how I like it after telling her what I want/need. I haven't received this many compliments from strangers and friends/family before going to her. The owner is super sweet also! Highly highly recommend! There's also free parking in a lot w security and a coffee shop next door. read more

Always the most affordable and welcoming place to go! read more

I wanted to share my recent experience here. it was truly outstanding! The staff is not only incredibly kind but also highly experienced. During my discussion with my hairstylist, she attentively grasped my concerns and provided suggestions that exceeded my expectations. What's more, their service prices are fantastic! I guarantee you'll be thoroughly satisfied, and I'm already looking forward to my next visit. read more

I made an appointment in the morning. They took me in the same day. I went in and showed them a picture of a digital perm that I wanted. Lily was my hairstylist. Even though there were language barriers, she managed to give me exactly what I wanted! This is the best hairstylist that I've been to. Their price is a bit pricey but it's definitely good quality work that I don't mind paying for. She knew exactly what she was doing. read more

First of all I don't understand whats with the bad reviews. Today was my first time here, long story short my gf suggested this place to me, and I honestly did not know what to expect before coming here since I read up the reviews. But I wanted to give this place the benefit of the doubt so I took a gamble. The result was great! We made an appointment for 6:10 and arrived right on time. I also expected to wait 30-40 minutes after arriving but I was helped right away. I went there for a perm and haircut, the reason my gf recommended here was because it's cheaper than my previous salon also in Koreatown. The whole process took about 2 hours and I could tell the hair stylist was skilled and knew what she was doing. My hair turned out amazing and the total we paid was far below what I expected. Highly recommended this place! read more

Kaju Hair - Forgot to take a pic at the salon so ignore the background LOL - Hair Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I scheduled for hair color and cut but when it was time for the cut the hairstylist wasn't aware that I wanted a haircut and when I mentioned that I also scheduled for cut she was not happy. The hairstylist did not care what I wanted and just kinda did what ever she wanted. When I asked the hairstylist to add more layers she was irritated with me and just ignored me. She was in so much rush that as soon as I got up she seated the next person. While I was paying I told the cashier that this was not the cut I wanted and showed him a picture which he asked me to come the next day. The stylist came over and talked to the cashier in Korean like she was irritated and gave me a dirty look and walked away. Worst cut and worst service I have ever gotten. I didn't go back the next day because I just couldn't trust them anymore. read more

First time visiting after hearing great things from a couple friends. My hair stylist was MJ and my husband's stylist was Kelly. MJ seemed knowledgeable in the latest hair trends and she was super quick! My haircut took like 10 minutes. Kelly was super meticulous and detailed while cutting my husband's hair and she did a great job! Overall satisfied with price point, quality of service, and haircut. read more

My appointment was 10:30 AM, So I arrived at 10:20 AM but somewhat reason it was delayed until 11:00 AM, and I was supposed to change the whole color for my hair. But, no time to talk with my hairstylist because it's already been delayed too much time, so she was hurrying, so I changed my plan to change only my root. And While I was talking to my hairstylist that if the colors work on my hair or not and all of a sudden, the owner came to her and cut the conversation while I was talking and the owner said to her " you have other client soon you gotta hurry". What? Am I not client? I just had one sentence with stylist and you told her hurry up ? I was waiting more than 30 minutes then what about my time?? Anyway I finished almost 1:00PM and even the assistant skill was bad. My forehead(skin) got dyed too. Plus I said I'll just do trim little bit because I want to grow my hair and she cut and cut and cut again so I got shorter and after trim she did styling my hair but was bad. I'd rather do it better myself. I'll never come back again. read more

My siblings and I all had our hair done by the main hair stylist and she is so meticulous and perfect! Loved the way she did our hair and I'll definitely be returning every month!!! read more

I made a reservation for a haircut. I read other people's reviews and saw they had to wait for a while. But I was seated right away. Shampoo is optional with additional fee. The styling after the haircut was included. The hair stylist cut more than what I wanted, but it was still good. The price may be the cheapest in the area, but the result was better than one of the boutique hair salons. read more

I would give zero stars if I could. Made an apptmt - and even confirmed couple days before - about our early morning apptmt because I was bringing my mom (from a nursing home) as an outing. Needed an early morning apptmt because she has to be back at the nursing home for her afternoon therapy. Got there ten minutes before the apptmt time because I hate being late.. NO ONE. Waited 30 mins... NO ONE. We finally left because I can't have my sick mom sitting in the car for too long. Hey owners, DON'T MAKE APPTMTS IF YOU CANT KEEP THEM. I highly suggest customers go elsewhere. Plenty of Korean salons nearby. read more

This salon is definitely underrated. I got my hair cut by two different ladies on two diff occasions (sorry can't remember the names). But both times they gave me exactly what I wanted. The hair cut was nice from the initial cut and looked even better when it grew out. Super flattering to the face.The two lady's attention to details really made all the difference. But the best part is it's very reasonably priced. When I went this weekend it was $40 - $45 . Also $1 parking with validation! read more

I have been getting my hair cut at this salon for about a year by the same hairstylist. I had made an appointment for 1:30 and arrived at 1:25. However, I ended up waiting for over 20 minutes, and to my surprise, a different hairstylist showed up. I informed them that the stylist wasn't the person I had made the appointment with. Suddenly, the old shop owner approached me and started yelling, claiming that I hadn't told him my stylist's name, which I already had done. I requested to reschedule the appointment because I didn't want to have my hair cut by a different stylist, but he continued yelling at me for making that request. If you want to avoid being treated in such a horrible manner, I recommend avoiding this awful shop. read more

The haircut itself is always amazing. I always ask Young to cut my hair and I have never loved my haircuts so much. The issue I have is the appointment system where they take reservations but I always end up waiting 20-40 minutes even after the appointment time. Not sure why they have this system in place if it isn't much different than just walking in. Another issue I have is that the owner (older korean man) takes our payment and tip and then gives it to the person we got a cut from in front of us. That just seems disrespectful and unprofessional. A tip may reflect our gratitude for the great cut but the amount may not live up to what they expect sometimes. I'm not gonna tip 20-25 percent when I waited for 30 minutes even though I made an appointment but it also may be that I can't financially provide a larger tip. Either way it just makes an awkward situation for the employee and the customer with no time or reason for justifying the amount I tipped. read more

So I've been coming to this place for about ten years for haircuts, and I never gave a review because, despite my fondest affections, they used to have a long wait problem. But the wait problem seems to have finally been fixed! Things are a lot more timely and orderly now. Also, I finally bit the bullet and decided to say goodbye to my virgin black hair this past weekend and the results deserve a review. I showed my hair unnie Young pictures of really light ash lavender hair and asked her for a browner version of it because I was too scared to go full purple. What she gave me was full head of a beautiful light purple blonde ash - which shows up in pictures as slightly pink, but in person definitely shows shades of really light lavender purple mixed in with shades of honey brown blonde. I'm loving the results and I've been getting compliments at every corner. Go get your hair fix, now. Young's awesome! And make sure to make a clear and specific reservation in advance. Deets on the do - a bleach session, toning, and a color session later: virgin brown black hair to light ash purple/brown blonde read more

Kaju Hair - After a couple washes, it lightened up - it's definitely like a really pale ash blonde with a pinkish purplish tint - Hair Salons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I got the magic straight perm with keratin treatment for the ends of my hair due to unhealthiness and breakage, and it turned out so well! My hair is naturally curly, frizzy, and hard to manage but now it feels sleek and calm after I shower. Not completely straight, but so much better than before. My stylist Sarah was so nice and quick and very professional. Although I couldn't understand much Korean and had my mom translate (who also got her hair done) it was a quick and easy process. My hair hasn't been so soft and healthy like this for many many years. I love the treatment so much that I recommended the same thing to a friend with extremely curly hair and she loves it as well. The only minor issue is the language barrier due to speaking very little English. I will be returning for a touch up in a few months! read more

Worst haircut of my life. I'm Korean but not a native speaker and the lady who kept on cutting my hair kept looking down on me and talking at me instead of to me. She commented to my mom that I looked pissed all the time compared to my sister. She failed to listen to my wishes and instead did what she wanted to my hair. I specifically told her long layers and keep the length and instead she cut it extremely short in a weird fashion where the top of my hair is cut into a bob and the bottom is long. It is essentially a mullet and I'm devastated. When I told her I was unhappy with the haircut she got shocked and complained to my mom. Don't come here if you want to make decisions about your own hair. read more

A few years back, I made a spontaneous visit to this place after hearing a radio ad about a special on hair color. It was advertised that just for that week, they're charging $30 for hair coloring, for all kinds of hair. $30 for hair color?!?! I've always wanted to try going darker, I thought to myself. Well, get this. When I walked into the empty salon (I should've known then why it was empty), I asked about the special and they told me that what I heard is true. Quickly after that, we chose a color and decided on a very dark brown color for me (because my natural hair color is ash brown, but because it's on the fine side, it gets bleached in the sun easily). They assured me that they were using the best kind of hair dye and that I shouldn't have to worry about my hair getting damaged. First of all, when we were done, I was appalled to find my hair with tints of red when I specifically told them that since I am a cool-toned gal, no orange, red or bleach of any kind should be used on my hair). Furthermore, instead of the advertised $30, they charged me $60 for the dye job, saying that they accidentally used the more expensive hair color for my dye. I reasoned with them and the price was brought down to $50. I was upset and didn't want to spend my time at that place any more, so I walked out with my reddish brown hair (which was not flattering at all), which, by the way, was so incredibly dry and brittle after this dye job that a few weeks later, I had to chop my hair off. I feel they completely took advantage of me because I was a young girl then, without any adult supervision and this is definitely a place I will never ever recommend to anyone. Just stay away from this place. read more

3.5 I was mistaken when I thought my perm had been $40 before. It was, in fact, $60 and that was because of a package deal (the other people I was with had their hair done too). When I went today to accompany another newbie's perm experience, we were charged $70 because of a sale that was going on (original price: $80). A trim was included before the perm. I think the price of the trim + perm is determined by length of hair... but when I asked, the price of a regular perm seemed to be around $80. A digital perm or wave is around $100. Hmm... not as cheap as I thought. Today, they were short-staffed and busy. We had made appointments for 11 and arrived 5 minutes early. We were actually helped (the hair was starting to be trimmed and washed, and etc...) at 11:40. 40 minutes of wait time for a set appointment. And the perm took a while because the hairdresser, Young, was busy helping other customers and forgot about us. Hmmm.. However. The price was still cheap and the perm turned out well. It just took longer (and more patience) than expected. Kaju, I'm returning, but if this long-wait and forgetting-abouts keep happening, I just might have to find another salon. read more

I had a great experience at Kaju Hair. I think that the lady (hair stylist) who cut my hair is the director or owner of Kaju Hair. She was very friently. Not only that, while cutting my hair, she gave me great advices. She noticed that I have naturally curly hair and very thick hair. She recommended for me to have regular thinning of my hair. This was actually the very reason I went to cut my hair yesterday. My hair felt so heavy when I wash it, and I wanted my hair to feel lighter. The hair stylist also noticed that I regularly dye my hair at home, even though I didn't tell her. So I told her that I dye my hair at home every 3 weeks because I have a lot of gray hair. She advised me to only dye the roots because that's the only area that has new growing white hair. She said that I don't have to dye the rest of my hair because that will only damage my hair. She said that my hair is already very damaged because it was hard to comb through my hair. She also asked if I use conditioner or treatment, and I told her that I use shampoo and conditioner combo (mixed as one) to save time. She recommended me not to do that. Since my hair will always be damaged due to frequently dyeing my hair, she said that I needed to take extra care of my hair and put conditioner or treatment separately, after shampooing my hair. She said that she recommends me to use treatment more than conditioner because that would be more helpful to maintain a healthy hair condition. After cutting my hair, my hair feels much lighter and I am happy! I will visit Kaju Hair again. :) read more

I have been going to many different salons in LA but this salon is my favorite. Young is the hair stylist that I go and she is wonderful. Parking is ok if you go during the morning to maybe around 3 but during the night, there is a restaurant next to the salon which is very popular so the parkig lot is very crowded. Its better to make an appointment and if you are trying to perm or dye your hair, try to bring snacks because they take as many customers they can so it gets delayed and you are going to be hungry. If it wasnt for that, I would give this salon 5 stars. read more
