Ken is absolutely the best. I highly recommend coming to this salon. He was able to fix my hair exactly to my personal preference in a quick and efficient manner, and he was so kind and professional throughout the entire process. I don't know much about hair, but he took the time to explain what he was doing and educate me along the way -- which I've honestly never experienced before. He was incredibly informative and genuinely helpful. I would absolutely recommend this location to anyone looking for a great experience and beautiful results. read more

Shear & Shine is a quality salon. I found them on Yelp in May 2019- that is 7 years ago!!!!!!! I have been going there since. First, it was Ken's tender care and soft spoken demeanor who was taking care me whether it' is coloring my hair , roots touch up, or shampoo and style. When Nika joined the Shear & Shine, I started asking for Nika. She is an excellent colorist, hair stylist, and also keeps my hair trimmed. She also does men's haircut with fade away and such. Nika will work with you and would make you comfortable. It is easy to trust her with your prized mane. As a colorist, Nika knows just the right shade of blond to cover my grays. I have received many compliments about my hair from women, men, and the younger generation. I have attached Nika latest treatment of my grays. Thank you Nika for always making me look good and special read more

LOVE SOREDA! Such a beautiful kind loving little lady! I will never not come back to her! Have been seeing her for a couple years and she is the best! Today I brought in my little sister (20) to have a cut she hadn't had since the last time I brought her in which was 4-5 years ago! Soreda never disappoints ! She exceeds expectations and I think all the stylists do as well. The feeling I got when I watched other guests was that they definitely have been here before .. asking about family or personal things.. it's a great vibe in there. All the stylists seem so kind and warm and funny very welcoming. I would suggest this place for sure and the prices can not be beat! read more

Benz has done it again folks!! I came here a few months ago for my first haircut with Benz. It was by far the best haircut I've had in years. My usual hairstylist whom I've been going to for over 15 years was unavailable for color and highlights so I thought why not give Benz a try. He exceeded my expectations. The top of my head upon arrival had about 6 inches of dark almost black roots. And my hair was extremely faded. Benz did the most beautiful shades of blonde and soft brown. When I posted the photos to my Instagram after EVERYONE was asking where I went and how they can get in too!! lol I took that as the best compliment ever. Also I was so surprised that Benz did a scalp and temple massage during washing, and a shoulder massage before blow dry. I'm absolutely blown away by the amazing treatment and quality I received. I highly recommend this salon and most of all BENZ!!! read more

I desperately needed a trim and decided to try this little salon. Because I have curly hair, I was a little hesitant to go. I don't trust people with my hair but, I read the great reviews and gave it its best judgment. When entering it was clean and very welcoming. Nika was the gal who cut my hair and she was extremely thorough and even cut my hair DRY because she KNEW how curly hair worked. She gave me so many helpful tips on how to keep my hair hydrated, it was extremely comforting knowing she cared about my hair and the way I like to style it. I got home this evening and washed my hair, I kid you not my hair looks so cute after air drying! Turned out better than when I was there! I will definitely be returning to see Nika! read more

I got a cut from Ken and it was just what I was looking for. He was quick and very detailed.

I truly love coming here. It was my first time ever coming in for hair dye, and Ben made the whole experience so comfortable and it came out absolutely beautiful. I get compliments everywhere. I loved it so much that I came back a few days later for a haircut, and once again I left so happy. Ben is always smiling, kind, and you can really tell he cares about his work. The shop is always busy, but the energy is so welcoming, and everyone who works here is friendly and great at what they do. You truly feel taken care of here. If you're thinking of coming in, go see Ben you won't regret it. read more

Ben did a great job on my highlights. I have agoraphobia so as soon as I sit in a salon chair my anxiety is through the roof but Ben was really nice about it. I asked for caramel highlights and he did a great job and also gave a little massage in the bowl. I was an anxious mess the whole time and couldn't sit thru a haircut or blow dry but I feel really happy about my hair. Thanks Ben for your empathy and for the highlights! read more

I was searching for salons near my workplace for a haircut when I discovered Shear & Shine, a hidden gem. I arrived without an appointment, hoping for a cut, and Ben promptly welcomed me in and did an excellent job. I wanted a short, winter-friendly style that's easy to manage in the morning. He listened carefully to all my requests, offered helpful suggestions, and did a perfect job. Plus, the prices are very reasonable! read more

Ben is a great stylist. I'm picky with haircuts and I had no complaints. He did a nice layered cut, and was fast, too! What more can you ask for? Prices are reasonable, which is always a plus :) read more

Update: I don't want to mislead people but after a few days as I washed my hair I suddenly noticed the difference of the first time I had my highlights. I saw some uneven parts of color after I straightened my hair to have a better view of my hair. It took me 4 days before I washed my hair and I already noticed the uneven tones. I even used a purple shampoo. Ken offered a free toning service but I had to pay $30 for shampoo and styling but what's the assurance of my hair getting fixed? And I have previously bleached hair so I can't afford to have breakage or have a worse outcome. I think somehow him being on the phone and with other clients without assistants checking on my hair took a toll on the process of bleaching of my hair. I had to get on and off his chair coz he had to cut another clients hair and it's not only once. Coz he was pretty booked. I'm sorry as much I would love to have a perfect rate for this salon especially because of their friendliness but I wasn't overall satisfied. It's salvageable if I will have to curl it so you won't notice but as a busy mom I can't afford to do that everyday. I had my hair done somewhere else that I didn't have to do that and my hair was completely fine. Maybe it was a miss that day. I don't know, but it's hard to gamble when it comes to your crown of glory. So just something to consider. read more

10 out of 10 experience! I highly recommend I haven't had a hair cut since 2022 and I have extremely long and thick hair. I set up an appointment with Benz because I seen so many great reviews with him. I was nervous because my hair is my "safety blanket" but i was planning to chop a lot off. Benz was so nice and gave me exactly what I wanted. I got a huge chop, layers, curtain bangs, and it was styled. I was charged $45 for everything, I can't believe how reasonable their prices are! Thank you so much Benz read more

Shear and Shine Hair Studio - Layered haircut with light curl styling. Pikaboo dye was from diff stylist ages ago. - Hair Salons Near Me - Long Beach, California

Prices were great for the service and they were so flexible with timing! Everyone was so sweet and positive.

I've done the so fancy for you salon life for almost all of my haircuts. The wine and hair wash at upscale places is nice but at the end of the day the cut is the most important. Ken gets it done and he is so calming, sweet and thoughtful with styling. He knows his stuff and makes sure to understand what you want while also suggesting things based on your hair type. $25 a cut. He styled it so beautifully like I was going to a gala. So the test was what it would look like after a shower and no styling (aka my normal daily life) and... I LOVE my new layers. If you want talented hair stylists and like a no fuss, welcoming, relaxed environment, this is your spot. read more

DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME. I made an appointment on Monday for today (Friday) at 9am. The man who scheduled me on the phone that day said I was all set for my appointment for Friday the 7th at 9am! He said it himself! Just for me to wait an HOUR in the parking lot and have no one show up. The place was closed. I decided to leave after waiting an hour just for them to call me 10 minutes after saying they had me for tomorrow. Which is WILD. I came here back in 2021 and it was a great experience clearly I've been gone for to long. Keep your money spend it on a place that values your time. read more

I have premature grays all over my head since I've been in high school. It was a pain. I had to dye my roots every month just to hide my embarrassment. During quarantine I let my roots grow wild and after six months I decided it was time to tame the bean sprout farm amassing all over my scalp. I just let Ken do his magic and he was able to do a low maintenance hair color that blended the grays. They way he balayaged my hair allowed my grays to grow longer in between root touch up. I love how my hair color came out and next time I plan to go brighter and go full on mushroom gray. Even if you're in your 20s and graying, Ken and Soreda have the best solutions for you! If you'd like something like this, definitely have a consultation with them!!! read more
