I've been coming here by my stylist Art (Artur) for a little more than a year now and I wouldn't step foot in any other place! Art does the best color, cut and blow dry. He always has me looking and feeling fabulous every time I leave this salon. The salon is clean, parking is convenient and the staff is friendly and welcoming. The salon and Art get 5 stars for the best customer service experience! read more

I've been coming to this hair salon for a year now, and I've never had any single problem getting my haircut. For a man's haircut, $10 for detailed, attentive, and homely service is the best deal that you can ever get. This establishment was obviously not built for high-maintenance people with ego issues, so I don't know what the other girl's problem was (Especially when you can't even correctly spell the idiom 'once in a while', you have to have some reservations about how well they can accurately assess a business establishment.) It's a place for people who are on budget and those who would rather spend just enough money for service than how the decor of the place goes along with their style. Too many yelpers judge the place critically because it's not up to their spending power. Their ignorant reviews hurt businesses, and that's a sad reality. Very satisfied for the money I spent. End of story. read more

I love this place! But, more importantly, I love the owner. I had been looking for her for a while. She had been cutting my and my daughter's hair for over ten years. Linda is great at what she does and she does it with a smile. So glad to have such a great lady back in my life. read more

Definitely recommend this place. I loved my hair color and cut. Art and Linda are a great team and are very hospitable.

So I'm back in the Valley from school and went here based upon the Yelp reviews.. and I have no idea why everyone is so positive? Poor presentation, a frustrating haircut, and a negative experience within the store all equals to these two stars. **GENERAL ADVICE** This lady is Korean and understands English ok, but not to the point where you're comfortable using plain English. I exerted a lot of effort to try to communicate what I wanted. So if you don't speak Korean, it may be a bit tense for you to communicate what you want and know she's understanding you. Additionally, the place looks pretty darn rundown. Pictures are pretty faded and the decore just looks old. I'm not knocking too hard on this b/c I care about the cut more than the ambience, but still the place felt cold, slightly unkept, and almost like she took no pride in her shop. **THE CUT** The store owner was actually not as nice as some of the other reviews say. She just asked me what I wanted (no hello, smile, etc.). I asked for a pretty standard "faded undercut," something a lot of men these days are asking for. She looked confused, however, and I had to dig up a Facebook picture to show her what I wanted. The cut was going ok.. she did the fade fine (you can't mess up fades.. I used to do it on myself and friends for free) and was layering ok, but the whole time it looked like she was winging it and wasn't too sure what she was doing. I don't mind clarifying and conversing with stylists about my hair, but it's frustrating when it seems like she's guessing and isn't asking follow up questions, how I like it, etc. Her tools are also not up to par. Having styled hair myself on the side, I could tell her scissors weren't sharp or well kept, and her buzzer wasn't well-oiled. No pride in your tools or shop isn't helping her case. **THE WORST PART** 40 minutes into my cut (which is already really long for what I'm asking for), and this other Asian customer waltzes in, astonished that the woman is cutting my hair. The lady demands that she has 10 minutes for a cut (who takes 10 minutes for a cut?!) and needs to go home and shower and drive an hour away for something. I understand everyone has busy schedules, but this lady didn't have an appointment and was standing 2 feet away from my cut, staring us down trying to intimidate the barber to finish faster. I kindly told her that if she didn't have an appointment, then she had no right to demand the barber to finish fast for her. What irked me though was that the barber did not stand up for me; she begun cutting fast, finishing me up, and blewdry my loose hair. She didn't even ask if I was satisfied with the cut (which I wasn't yet!) and promptly walked me to the front desk to pay. Maybe these two ladies are friends, but still, if you have no appointment, you have no right to intrude into my cut. And if you're a store owner, you should defend your customers, no matter the relationship. This was just... a horrific experience. **OVERALL** To put it in perspective, I always tip barbers nice (usually above 15%) b/c I know it can be a tough business, but the experience here was so edgy and frustrating that I paid and left. Thankfully the cut was only $10. I would not recommend unless you are a homey with this lady or you have a reference, and you speak Korean. The only pro is that... well it WAS a $10 cut and she didn't screw up necessarily. But customer service, ambience, and ultimately the cut has led to my 2 stars. I'm not going back here. read more

Great haircut, very reasonable price. Tammy is very friendly to boot

My favorite barbershop! Tammy does an amazing job! She is very detail orientated, takes her time, and does a professional job. She gives you first class treatment. Sometimes I guy needs a nice haircut, and not just a buzz cut. I highly recommend this salon! All for only $10. read more

I came here because of the good reviews on yelp but I was not happy with the cut. It was nothing like what I asked for, I even showed pictures. I wanted a deep side part in my hair, but she insisted it looked better a different way and wouldn't allow my opinion. She was very kind and seemed to want to help but I didn't feel like my wants were being taken into consideration. read more

I've been getting my eyebrows done by Linda since I was 14 years old. I'm 28 now and won't let anyone else touch them. She is great at what she does and she's a genuine and kind person who has become a family friend. Her salon is the best! read more

Been coming here for a few years and wouldn't want to go anywhere else! Temmy is very kind and knows what she's doing. She takes her time to achieve a perfect haircut for you, which I always appreciate a lot. Also, the price is lovely and won't break the bank. I tell all my friends to go to her and they all leave satified! read more

It is old style hair shop,but Tammy does know exactly how to do haircut. Her skill is great enough to cover the little uncomfortable circumstances in the shop. Because there is no air. It is better to go there early. read more

Linda does amazing cuts---I haven't let anyone else touch my hair in years. And when she finally convinced me to let her color my hair as well I wondered what took me so long! Art does special blow outs. The salon is basic but the service and value for your money is amazing. I always get extra looks and comments after I've been to see them....and dropped jaws once I tell how much I've paid! Go see them. read more

Been going to Linda for years. She's so amazing in so many ways. So sweet and compassionate. She is an artist with the eyebrows. Always offers refreshments. I'll never go anywhere else. Love you Linda! read more

Tammy is a perfectionist, and spends twice the amount of time as anyone else. Her salon is the "best deal in town", and I recommend her to all of my friends. I work for one of the networks where appearance is of great importance and would not go there if she was anything but "the best". read more

I discovered this Hair Salon 2 years ago, and go nowhere else, now. I work in Television and a neat personal appearance is a must, even though I am in engineering, not talent. One of my jobs is quality control, and I have to judge ABC TV's network programming in detail for technical quality, etc. I am trained to be picky, in other words. Tammy, were she in broadcasting would pass QC with flying colors! She takes twice as long as anyone else that I've been to in 60 years and charges so little that I tip her 100% out of guilt because I've gotten way more than I paid for. Even doubling her fee she is still cheaper than any other high quality salons that I've been to. She lets nothing get by her vision of what my hair should look like. If there were a word which described being more than meticulous I would use it here. The atmosphere is clean, open and friendly; I have no trouble parking, either. I always call and make an appointment, but I don't think it's "required". Some people think that quality is related to price and go to very expensive places where they can be around other people that like to be charged too much but, as in "The Emperor's New Clothes" fairytale, the quality of their expensive haircut is an illusion only seen by themselves.. I'm not one of them, and care only about results. I live half way in between Tammy's shop and Malibu and could afford a Malibu hair cut if I wished, but I choose Tammy.

I had super long hair and want to cut it all off. Whenever dramatically changing my hair, I am very cautious as to who cuts it. I didn't want to spend a ton of money, but still wanted a quality cut and nothing fancy. This place fit the bill perfectly. It was $20 for a cut and it came out great. She was very meticulous and took her time to get it right. I would definitely go here again! read more

Today was the first time I went to La Contessa. I have to say I have found my new hairdresser...Tammy is amazing! She is so nice and really takes her time in cutting your hair like you want it! I loved my cut! read more
