I am so glad to have found Gabriel! Great customer service. He doesn't require a deposit. He doesn't double book. He focuses on one person at a time .and you get what you ask for! read more

Gabriel has been my go-to for the last 10 years, cutting and coloring my 50 shades of grey hair. Cerebral dialogue to go with it.

Gabriel is excellent a hairdresser skilled w color and cut, and he's fun and friendly. I highly recommend Gabe! The salon is serene and beautiful with its calming atmosphere. I already booked my 3rd appointment for later this month. read more

I got my hair cut and colored by Gabriel himself. He knows how so shape your hair to your face . This place is best . The price of the hair cut and colored is perfect . read more

Have you ever walked out of the salon hating your hair? Is your hair so damaged that each time you go to the salon you have to have a few inches cut off? This was me before I started going to Salon Gabriel Anthony. I honestly was scared of finding a new hair stylist; even know I was not happy with my old stylist. I kept asking myself what if the new stylist causes more damage or totally changes my look and I hate it? UGH... After reading all of the Yelp Reviews on Salon Gabriel Anthony, I decided that it was worth giving him try. I have been to Salon Gabriel Anthony 3 times in the last 6 months and have never felt more beautiful and confident. He has in incredible eye for color and what works best with my skin tones. The brand of color he uses is Goldwell and has not damaged my hair. I no longer have split ends. My hair is now rich in color and healthy. Usually 5 weeks after getting my hair done, my hair has lost all of it shape and the ends are completely fried. I have never received so many compliments on the color and shape of my hair. Thank you Gabriel for your professionalism. You are a true artist that loves what you do and obviously takes the time to know and understand your client's needs and desires. read more

I had been with my stylist for just over 25 years. She fell ill and I was left to find another. I am VERY particular with products and the kind of color product a stylist utilizes due to going through cancer. Finding out that he used Goldwell was amazing!!! Gabriel Anthony was a God sent!!! I was very nervous but he listened to what I was looking for and he delivered 125%!!!! I am thrilled to build a long lasting relationship with him as my "hair physician". I could not be happier! Thank you Gabriel!! See you in a month! read more

I came to see Gabe with blue black hair that had been dyed once to try and lighten it by someone else. The highlights were a terrible orange color and did not look natural in any way. I showed Gabe a picture and he told me that we can achieve this desired result in a few sessions because my hair had so much black color on it that so as to not damage the hair. I was very pleased with my color and received so many compliments! My hair also felt really healthy and looked amazing. I would definitely recommend seeing Gabe as he knows color very well and can give you exactly what you are looking for. The salon is also a nice and relaxed friendly environment in a great central location. I look forward to getting my hair done again very soon. read more

Salon Gabriel Anthony - Hair by Gabriel Anthony - Hair Salons Near Me - Orange, California

I've been to a few really good hairstylists in OC (and a few not so good) but I've been looking for a stylist close to the Orange Circle since I spend so much time in that area. And I found him. Gabriel Anthony is a fantastic hairstylist/colorist and a really nice guy as well. I've been to his salon a few times now, including an appointment for a Functional Keratin Hair Taming treatment which is something like a "Brazilian Blowout" but without the formaldehyde. It worked like magic and my once-frizzy hair is now, indeed, tamed. His price is also about $100 cheaper than what I've seen at other salons. Gabriel's pricing for cut and color ($115 for both) is also very reasonable and he uses my favorite coloring and hair styling product - Goldwell. Needless to say, my hair looks a hundred times better when I leave the salon. In fact, my toddler barely recognizes me when I come home (which I suppose says a lot about how I normally style my hair...yikes!). Gabriel's salon is small but very modern and clean and there is always good music playing. It's a very relaxing environment, which I really appreciate. Gabriel is getting busier and busier (which made me almost not want to write this review!) so you'll probably need to call a few weeks out before an appointment. However, there are a few other hairstylists there as well if he is booked. Actually, maybe you should just call for them instead since I don't want any problems getting an appointment with Gabriel in the future! read more

Considering the only reason I joined Yelp was to review this salon, I figure what better place to start than here. I've been going to Gabriel since before he opened his own salon. That being said, he is AMAZING. We attended cosmetology school together, and he is the ONLY person I trust to do my hair. He is constantly going to classes to further his education, and I really feel like it can only get better from here. The salon is very modern, very clean lines and the music is never too loud. This isn't one of those pretentious salons that most women feel uncomfortable going to. When I'm there, everyone is extremely nice and I never feel like I'm being judged. I know some salons are like that, where you feel like its a constant fashion show and the women are talking bad about you, but not here. I've never had a problem getting an appointment here, and they always call to confirm the day before. I can not say anything bad about this salon or Gabriel Anthony. read more

Quick & Dirty: A great haircut, reasonably priced, near the plaza in Orange. Long & Cut: At Salon Gabriel Anthony you get your hair cut by the actual Gabriel Anthony, and he's a pretty cool guy. One thing you'll notice right off the bat is that the guy likes to talk and make you feel welcome. He has some pretty funny stories that's for sure. I've been to get my hair cut here a couple of times now and the first time he described (in detail) what kind of cut I needed. You can tell that he has a lot of experience and is good at what he does. The price of the cut is around $30 and that's completely worth it considering it's an above average cut. Would I go here again? For sure, Gabriel is a great stylist. Should you go here? Yep, his full service salon can handle anything and everything. Later, sam read more

I got my hair cut and colored by Mr. Gabriel Anthony himself. The salon is located right by the Orange circle on the corner. It's been a while since I went, but I remember it being a smaller salon with out too many patrons, maybe I just went at an odd time. It is very clean He uses Goldwell products, which he told me were high quality. I liked the way my hair came out. Maybe I might come back again, but the price quoted over the phone was way off from what I ended up paying. read more

I've always only had my sister as my hairstylist since she's amazing like that, but since I recently had her cut me some bangs for the new year that had already grown out and the fact that she lives in MN, I really needed to find a local pro for my hair woes. I found Gabe through Yelp since I live down the street and decided I'd nervously make an appointment. Gabe got me in quickly as I wanted to get in before the weekend. I arrived this morning pretty nervous since no one else has ever touched my hair, but Gabe was so nice and made me really comfortable with my hair in his hands. He's really an expert at what he does and it shows. He fixed up my bangs and gave me extra layers as well as awesome tips on how to style my hair and keep it looking awesome. The salon is small, but has a great ambiance about it without the big salon drama of lots of noises and voices trying to talk over each other. I'm making Gabe my SoCal hairstylist :) read more

I'm an actor so I'm extremely vein and obsessed with my appearance. I first got my haircut by Gabriel Anthony a few years back. I walked up to his salon. The door was locked. He saw me outside and opened the door. Despite being closed, he let me in, personally cut my hair, and gave me a student discount on top of it all. I've been coming to him ever since. He always does a fantastic job. Better than anyone else I've been to. And I've been to some high-scale places. My only reservation in writing this review is the fear that too many more people will start going to his salon and it'll be harder for me to book my next appointment! read more

Sunhee thanks for all the compliments I get for my hair. Oh and great talks as well. Everyone should know her scalp massage is very relaxing. read more

Salon Gabriel Anthony - Hair done by Sunhee - Hair Salons Near Me - Orange, California

I stumbled upon this salon by pure accident but have been a loyal client now for three years! At the time I had an A line bob that I wasn't quite happy with and the guy I had gone to originally claimed to be a pro at those type of cuts. He wasn't and I was regretting the decision I made when I cut my hair so short. But then I walked into Salon Gabriel Anthony and Gabriel explained that my cut was asymmetrical and required specific training which he had. I loved my hair when I walked out and got so many compliments. It's been 3-4 years now and although I don't sport the same style Gabriel remains my go-to guy and I'm impressed at how he continually stays in-the-know with all the latest techniques. He's very talented and knowledgeable. read more

Gabriel is great. I work in the music industry and had long hair before coming in to see him, he took my long hair and gave me a rockin short haircut. I had half an idea of what I wanted, but the 50% I left with him he utilized so well! He loves cutting hair and is a true artist in his field. I don't plan on going to anyone else ever. I was pretty nervous going in to cut off all my hair, but am so glad I did thanks to Gabriel! (I got sort of a long mohawk type thing...it rules) read more

I have been asking for chocolate brown my entire adult life and have always been dissapointed with the results...until a few months ago when I booked an appointment @ Salon Gabriel Anthony. I came in with a mess of red highlights I had not been able to get rid of for nearly a year and Gabe transformed my hair into a soft brown with beautiful complimenting highlights! I was ecstatic...as was my boyfriend ;-) Gabe truly is a color specialist and I would recommend him to any of my friends. He is easy to talk to and made me feel really comfortable. The salon itself is very modern. Love the decor, music, etc. I just had my second appointment last night and am even happier with the results. I've already gotten a few compliments from the ladies at the office. I think I've found me a new stylist read more

I was referred to Gabe at Salon Gabriel Anthony by my best friend. Since I was in need of a new hair stylist, I thought, why not? I can tell you that I'm so incredibly happy that I scheduled that first appointment. And now today over a year later, I had yet another color/cut with Gabe; he is pure genius. Great hospitality...always coffee, tea, or water ready to go and some yummy sweet treat. Cool tunes on the speakers and great modern, yet warm decor. Funny, intelligent and interesting to talk with, but ultimately what he does with your hair is art. He really does a fantastic job! I have no hesitation recommending that you check out this salon - you will not be disappointed! read more

This place is great.. I don't usually write reviews but I need to let you know Sunhee is awesome!! She did an amazing job on my hair I love it!!!

Her number is 714-270-1525 see for your self what I'm talking about :) read more

I went in yesterday for my first haircut with Gabriel and was a little nervous and excited (have had BAD experiences elsewhere. We've all been there..) but right away he made me feel welcomed and listened exactly to what I wanted and the outcome were perfect layers! I got a ton of compliments yesterday from friends and family and after not having my hair cut in almost a year I walked out feeling like a million bucks! Thanks Gabriel you'll be seeing me again in the future! read more

Love Gabriel . He de my high lights and hair cut and I really really liked it . As always !

Ok so I should probably start by saying that I'm not a California native, however I've lived in Orange County the last two years and finding the perfect stylist has been quite a struggle for me. When I found Salon Gabriel Anthony I was obviously skeptical since every other place I have gone to for a haircut had similar reviews that were great, but I always left feeling less than pleased with my haircut. I am so glad I chose to see Gabriel Anthony today because he did such an amazing job on my hair! I feel completely confident that I've found my perfect stylist in California. The customer service was wonderful, the conversation was great, my hair feels absolutely amazing, I feel like a new woman! If you're in the area and you need a change for your hair, go see Gabriel Anthony at Salon Gabriel Anthony and I guarantee you will not be disappointed! read more

I found Salon Gabriel Anthony thru the Goldwell Salon finder. I was hunting for a salon that uses Goldwell color. Believe me it makes a huge difference in the color and texture of your hair. Including giving your hair a wonderful shine with the Goldwell toner. So Gabriel colored and cut my hair. He did a wonderful job on picking the right brown . Explaining cool colors & warm colors etc. He listened to what I wanted and the color was perfect. My hair cut was also exactly what I wanted . I am on my second visit and requested a slight change on my side bangs. When I styled myself it was effortless. This is also what I wanted. Gabriel is the owner of this salon and knows what he is doing. Gabriel is a high end stylist at a fair price. Gabriel is the owner of this salon and although young has been doing hair for a long time. Another young lady that just had her hair styled and colored said she found him by asking a lady that had beautiful hair can you tell me who does your hair? Gabriel Anthony read more

I am a student at Chapman University and whenever I need a haircut, I know exactly where to go. Gabriel's salon has a delightful atmosphere which lets you know that this guy really takes pride in what he is doing. He also has a charismatic personality, we always get carried away during my haircut talking about something new. Last but not least, this guy does a really fantastic job, he always gets my hair just how I like it and have a super picky taste when it comes to that. Bottom line:The prices are very affordable for what you are receiving; great experience and great haircut. read more

Love, love, love this salon. The owner is the best hair stylist and colorist I have had. My friend Nancy introduced me to Gabe 5 years ago and he's been our family's stylist of choice. He does precision cuts and does a phenomenal job with covering my grays and highlights always come out very natural-looking. Check it out. You will not be disappointed. read more

I went to Salon Gabriel Anthony yesterday for the first time. I needed someone to remove the black dye from my hair and my friend highly recommended him. WOW I was impressed by his work. He completely removed the black without damaging my hair which we all know it can be very harmful to hair, he did an outstanding job. I will continue to go see him !!!! The salon is a very up to date, clean, & the music is MAGNIFICENT (his iPod)....... read more

I went to Gabriel about five or six months back in need of a good haircut. He was very personable and seemed to really know what he was talking about. I had him color and cut my hair and pretty much gave him the freedom to do whatever we wanted with it. I thought the end result was great. He took into consideration my face shape and the thinness of my hair and really helped my hair get back to feeling healthy again. He even offered suggestions for ways to keep it looking great and feeling good for months afterwards. The price was reasonable for the amount of attention and effort he puts into making his clients look great. I will definitely be back again sometime. read more

Had my hair cut yesterday by Gabe, and I am thrilled with it. I have very fine, straight hair, and not a ton of it, so it's surprisingly difficult to find a stylist who knows how to give me a cut that doesn't make my hair look sparse at the ends. I didn't even have to tell Gabe this - he could tell by looking at my hair what had been messed up previously, and how to fix it. My hair looks fantastic, he didn't push any products on me, didn't condescend to me for the fact that I simply don't style my hair and therefore needed a wash-and-go cut, AND - this is a biggie - he didn't insist on covering up my gray. He's great to talk to, the salon is perfect in that it's very clean and chic while still being cozy and intimate, as opposed to ominous and pretentious as so many salons tend to be. I already booked my next appointment and recommend you do the same! read more

I have been coming here for the past four years and have never been disappointed once. Gabriel has been the only person cutting my hair since my first visit and he is a natural at it. Passionate, detailed and professional. The result is always impeccable and he really knows how to listen to his clients' desire. I have long hair (longer than the average man) and so I am very picky when it comes to who holds a scissor to it. Gabriel is the only person who has had that privilege. read more

Unlike any other salons I've been to, this place is peaceful. And Gabriel is AMAZING!

My hair needed major help! He was not only kind and professional about my mess but he made me feel like he could fix it and he did!! He also didn't try to sell me any high priced services because he knew I had a set budget in mind. He's not only handsome and talented but he's funny, fun, smart, great conversationalist!! read more

I absolutely recommend Gabriel Anthony Salon. Gabe is knowledgable , professional and a darn excellent hairstylist. I don't know what I'd do without you!! read more

After reading such great reviews I went today and had a cut done by Gabriel. He did a beautiful job, exactly what I wanted and much more. He was friendly, and gave me great hair tips as a bonus! I can't wait to get my color done by him next time! And yes I already booked my next cut and color because he is VERY popular. read more

Gotta a new do from Gina Montes. LOVE IT!!! She was awesome. Took the time to answer my questions about the color ( my old was awful). And some styling tips. I was stuck in a pony tail rut! Thank God the girl had patience. She was great. I will be going back to her for sure! Thanks Gina!! You rock! read more

Great place to get your hair done! From the modern feel of the salon, to the music played... Salon Gabriel Anthony has "the big city feel, in a small town". I look forward to my haircuts from Gabriel now. read more

In love! I found Gabe thanks to a best friend of mine and the minute he touched my hair he knew I had an uneven cut. He fixed me up the first time and sent me home with a repair condition. Since, my hair is healthier and looks amazing! Man knows how to color and I love my highlights! I absolutely recommend him to any woman who knows what she wants but has struggled finding a stylist to create the vision! Love you Gabe!!! read more

Gabriel is a super nice guy. Always gives my wife and I a great cut!
