    Aida G.

    I have been going to Nicolette for last 3 years and recently decided to go much lighter than before. I showed her a picture and she promised to be able to do it in 3-4 sessions. Doing the math, each time I go to her I spend $175-$200 only for highlights. No cut or blow dry. Fast forward to a couple weeks ago, it was my baby shower and I made an appointment for my 5th session, mind you, I was no where near the lightness that she had promised in 3-4 sessions. She tells me 3 hours, so I plan out my day for 3 hours. She never keeps her word and keeps me for 5 hours. This time I really only had the 3 hours allotted. Long story short, not only did she completely fry my hair, instead of a ash blonde, I am now a brassy Orange!!! And it's my baby shower!!! The most important thing I always stress to her is not to get me brassy. Her knowledge of product and color is very poor. I would stay away from her at all cost. But what left me no choice but to write this review was her poor attitude and extremely bad customer service. She can't take constructive criticism, I contemplated letting her know how bad she damaged my hair and that I was unhappy, but my husband pushed me to text her so I finally did, and sure enough instead of her being apologetic and understanding, she lashed out at me. I will be posting a screen shot of her insensitive and rude text back to me. Because of her response and her insensitive and rude text, I am now requesting a full refund of my recent transaction. She fried my hair, now I have to chop at least 3 inches and to top it off she's so disgustingly rude! Stay away from this salon and Nicolette at all cost! She'll fry and destroy your hair, then belittle you with rude comments. And now blocks me so I cannot respond to her last belittling text....(calling me broke for requesting a refund due to the extensive damage she caused my hair. Especially during this important time in my life. My first baby shower. Please see attached the 4 screen shots of our conversation....

    Hair by Joanna!!

    I have been going to Joanna for a couple of year now and I am never disappointed. She has taken me from a dark chestnut brown to a light ombré blond. Anyone who has dark hair knows how hard it is to go lighter but Joanna always gets it done. She has done several techniques on my hair and uses only the best products to make my hair look/feel healthy and smooth. She also gives great haircuts(doesn't get scissor happy like most stylist) and amazing blow outs!! To take it one step further Joanna also educates you on how to maintain the healthiness and color for several months!! The staff at moniques are super friendly and accommodating! I would recommend this place to anyone no matter where you live. I live in the Glendale area and would gladly drive out to tarzana just to get my hair done. Honestly I do not trust any other place or person to take care of my hair!!

    Relaxing waiting area, perfect mood set to pamper myself!

    This is officially my new nail spot, without a shadow of a doubt! I was seen without an appointment and was treated with upmost care and professionalism. Tracy was my manicurist, and she exceeded any and all expectations. She was very personable while meanwhile making sure I was nothing less than completely satisfied with the end product. For service you can only hope for, and quality you wish for, there's a one hundred percent chance that I will be recommending her and this place to all of my closest friends and family. Thank you so much, Tracy, I'll see you very soon!

    Stiletto nails by Karen

    I've been coming here for years now and everyone there is amazing. There's such a great vibe in there that you just wanna stay and get pampered all day. My favorite person to go to for my nails is Karen, she does such a great job. I always get acrylics and she does them just the way I want them fast. She's very clean about her tools. She's so sweet and she'll leave you happy as can be with your nails. It's worth it! I love this place it's the best salon That I've been to.

    As I said in my previous comment. This Lisa lady is nothing less then rude.

    Lisa is a horrible person. She is so rude and the completely the opposite of understanding. Her words to me were your money is no good to me because I was late to my apt because I was trying to find parking. So Lisa told me not to bother coming she's not doing my hair and my money is no good to her. I highly suggest you do not go to this salon.

    LISA KOH! I bought Lisa's Groupon for full highlights. I have very thick and longer hair, she was upfront about additional costs and all. The last place I had been going to would not give me full highlights even when I paid because they were lazy. Lisa was extremely thorough with my hair making sure each section got the color it needed. It turned out beautiful and can easily say I will be returning to pay full price--she's worth it. Thank you Lisa

After 5.5 hours and $350 + tip, my gray hairs in the front were still completely visible--the main reason I came in. When I brought it up, I was told I should have specifically asked for gray coverage, which should be part of a basic consultation or at minimum asking the client if this is something they want. I also had uneven, patchy highlights. I returned the next day for a fix, requested a different stylist, and was denied. They said the same person could fix it all they needed to do was tone it down a bit, and cover the greys The "correction" resulted in my hair being taken darker overall, with the highlights essentially gone. I paid for highlights and left with dark hair. They told me eventually it should lighten down but I'm not seeing any improvement it's still really dark. To make matters worse I also left with visible dye on my forehead something I wouldn't expect after paying this price at a salon. Very disappointing experience and not one I would recommend I honestly wanted to cry. I really would have expected a partial refund or a proper correction by a more experienced stylist.

    I hate to leave reviews this long, but this experience was so unbelievable that I feel a…read moreresponsibility to share it with other people, especially when it comes to something as important as our hair. I booked a color and cut. My starting hair was a medium-dark brown with some red undertones, which is why I wanted it refreshed to a warmer, richer chocolate shade--nothing drastic, nothing near-black. In the salon, I selected the Level 4 chocolate brown swatch. I also looked at the Level 3 dark brown swatch and asked for her opinion. I told her I wanted my hair a little darker than it currently was, and she said she could mix a little of the dark brown into the chocolate brown. At no point did I choose Level 3 as the base of the formula or request anything close to a near-black result. When going into a salon and selecting a color from the book, it is the colorist's job to explain how that specific shade will read on your actual hair and to create the formula that will produce a result similar to the swatch you selected. If your hair is already dark and the swatch will pull much deeper, a professional should explain that clearly and adjust the formula. She did not do this. Instead, my hair came out significantly darker--almost black--nowhere near the chocolate brown I chose. I didn't notice how dark it truly was the night of the appointment because I was exhausted, nearly falling asleep in the chair, and it was already dark outside. The next day in natural light, I was shocked. I told my husband I was disappointed, but he said he liked it, so I tried to live with it for a few days. But it was just not what I was looking for at all. The haircut was just as bad. She cut a huge chunk in the front without angling it into the rest of the hair, and all the layers in the back were cut blunt with no blending, no texturizing, nothing. She styled it wavy with body, which masked how choppy it actually was. I was also floored by the pricing. Her website lists all-over color as $120+, and I fully expected to pay more for long hair--but not $250 for the color alone. She charged $250 for color, $75 for the haircut, and $65 for the blowout. The cut and blowout prices were reasonable, but the color price made no sense compared to what's listed online. I actually walked back inside afterward and told her I was shocked, and she adjusted the color price to $180. When I reached out looking for a solution--not a refund, just a correction--her tone over text was extremely unprofessional and dismissive. She insisted she "followed the shade I chose," even though I did not choose Level 3 and never asked for anything close to this result. She repeatedly contradicted herself by saying she followed the shade I picked, while also telling me my hair would naturally come out darker than the swatch because my hair was already dark--essentially admitting the result would never resemble the swatch I selected. I was so confused and taken aback by her refusal to collaborate that I decided to go into the salon to speak with the owner--only to find out that she is the owner. She refused to even look at the swatch next to my hair. I had to take the book myself, walk to the mirror, and compare it. When I asked her to come over and look, she said no because she wasn't going to do anything about it anyway. She even accused me of showing her a before picture that could have been from "5 years ago" which prompted me to scroll through my phone and show her that it was in fact from a few weeks ago and she still took 0 responsibility. Then she told me the only way to fix the color would be to bleach my hair for hours and that it would cost $1,000. Any trained colorist knows that is simply not true--she could have easily lifted the color and retuned it. The fact that she suggested extreme bleaching as the only option showed me she either doesn't have the proper education or simply didn't want to help. At that point, it became clear that she wasn't just unwilling to correct her own work -- she was refusing to acknowledge any responsibility at all. Between the incorrect color, the poor haircut, the inflated pricing, her dismissive tone over text, her refusal to look at the swatch, her refusal to offer any solution, and her claim that the only fix would be thousands in bleaching, I cannot recommend this salon to anyone. I now have to pay another professional to fix both the color and the cut. If you're considering booking here, I strongly suggest looking elsewhere.

The most concerning issue was the lack of cleanliness. The photos I've included were taken during both the initial appointment and the follow-up visit, and they show visible dirt, smudging, and buildup in client areas (walls, baseboards, and stations). This clearly was not a one-time oversight, but an ongoing issue. There were also concerns with tools being taken from drawers and appearing to be reused without clear sanitation, which added to the overall discomfort. On top of that, the results themselves were not satisfactory and required a return visit, which still did not resolve the problems. When I reached out to the salon to address this and request a refund, the response was not solution-oriented and instead required repeated justification. For a salon at this price point, basic standards like cleanliness, sanitation, and quality should not be in question.
