I trolled yelp and google and found Carlos close to my work. First of all parking was surprisingly easy, second very chill little salon.

The best haircuts of my life…read more Since moving to California, I've been keeping my hair longer. And in part I've been able to do that because I have Carlos, a stylist with a great eye who gives me good-looking, long-lasting cuts. He's also patiently realistic. I don't put product in my hair, and I'm not going to start. Rather than insist that I should, Carlos understands, and found a way to cut my hair that looks good anyway. He's also an engaging person with a fascinating personal story. This is the best time I've had talking to the person who cuts my hair since I was 12. I've sent all of my male friends with moderately difficult hair here. You should go too.

Update with lighting:…read more i am disappointed with the blotchy results I came in for a bleach partial babylight touch up service to an ashy level ten, and left with patchy, uneven results with visible hotspots and areas where the bleach overlapped so that caused breakage. I gave the stylist a chance to make it right. She initially offered a redo or refund if I removed my review, but then left me on read and didn't followed through. I asked if she wanted me to come back or just refund me, and got ghosted instead. She also did slices instead of babylights, which are small weaves; she did not feather the bleach. I even told her the formula I used, 10T, 10P, and 10V. When she combed through my hair, she used a wide tooth comb, but she tugged from the roots instead of the ends and whole chunks of hair just came out. I told her her to not brush so hard and she deflected it with, "it's is your scale sensitive?" No, you're a licensed hair dresser, we both know you aren't suppose to do that. When I went home, there was still bleach powder in my hair, which I had to wash rinse out. If you care about your hair health, transparency, or integrity, I wouldn't recommend coming here. See the attached photo for what I was left with. The ashy bottom is what I initially had, the yellowish areas were the touches up parts.

He does wonderful highlights, which get more complex the more a few white hairs establish themselves in my naturally black hair. He has done my son's hair throughout his life, taking him through his teenage experimentation, university surfer stage and now in his late 20s, his professional dark blonde hair era. My son looks great when he sees Eric. An order of degree or two more handsome. Eric has always made my hair look its best, giving me gentle nudges when I get excessively lazy. See him - you'll look better and your hair will be healthier.

For men: He does wonders with fully textured, thick hair. No more butchered hair after my husband started going to Eric. For women: If you're an Asian women, you MUST go to Eric. Consistently excellent results. I get lots of compliments-- even after the layers grow out! Wedding hair: There is no one else I would trust with my hair for such an important event. My up-do was an intricate work of art, perfectly complementary to my dress style and accessories. No cheesy 80's prom hair like so many other outdated stylists!

I've been going to Ryan for the past ten years and refuse to see anyone else. He's a true artist…read morewho understands hair on a level that feels intuitive. If you have Asian hair, you know how hard it is to find someone who actually gets it, but Ryan does. Before meeting him in college, I spent all my teenage years fighting with my thick, wavy hair, and every stylist made it worse. When I moved away for grad school, I called that time my "dark period" because my hair never looked right until I came back to him. His work completely changed how I feel about myself. After years of uneven cuts and awkward layers, Ryan gave me a look that felt modern, high-fashion, and personal. He knows exactly how Asian hair falls, how to shape it so it frames the face naturally, and how to bring out your best features. I've tried all kinds of adventurous cuts with him, from the Wolf Cut (a 70s-inspired shag I wore for years) to the Jellyfish, a mix of wolf and mini-mullet that fits my alt aesthetic perfectly. One of my TikTok videos featuring that haircut even got thousands of views. Ten years ago, I had an anime-style bob that people still mention. It was crisp, layered, and cinematic, something out of a 90s cyberpunk film. Ryan has that rare precision and creative touch that makes a cut feel iconic. He's also one of the few stylists who spends extra time perfecting every detail because he genuinely cares about the outcome. He even gave my boyfriend a flawless mini-mullet and nailed the Broccoli (Alpaca) cut on the first try. He's young at heart, open-minded, and always tuned into what's next in fashion and culture. Conversations with him are easy because he's curious, kind, and creative. I always leave the salon feeling like I just caught up with a friend who happens to be ridiculously talented. You'd never guess his age (sorry, Ryan) because he looks incredible and stays completely in touch with youth culture and its substyles. I've been cut at Vidal Sassoon once or twice, but it was overpriced and nowhere near as good as Ryan's work. He's a professional and one of the most underrated stylists out there. There's a Polaroid I took in 2017 after one of his cuts that people said looked like a 1980s Japanese ANRI album cover, which made me laugh because City Pop is trending again. Ryan keeps me ahead of the curve. He's adaptable, fearless, and endlessly creative. I'll look back on photos of my late teens and twenties and thank him for helping me feel confident and expressive in every version of myself. Thank you, Ryan!

It feels great to go to his salon which is elegantly designed and sit with no worries about how my hair will turn out at the end. I have thick hair and for those of you with the same hair quality, you know the struggle gets real when you have the certain color in mind and you don't end up with it because you were not in the right hands. I now take my family to him only cause I get to enjoy his amazing haircut on my husband and son!! My only advice is to book in advance as he is highly demanded and doesn't usually have last minute openings!! #heisthegreatest
