    Shannon fixed my 3-tiered, colored hair and gave me colors that flow MUCH better.
    Ani Q.

    I got my hair done by Shannon Levy (owner) 3 weeks ago and I couldn't be happier with the results. I found Sojourn by looking around on Groupon and Yelp. The reviews were so top-notch I knew I had to try it out. When I made the appointment, I knew fixing my hair was going to be a project and that Shannon was in for some work. Last year (my first year in college) I got some box hair dye from the local CVS and dyed my hair black--something I've been told not to do numerous times as black is notorious for latching on to hair and never coming out. When I got tired of the upkeep from having black hair, I decided I was ready to go light again. When I went home, I met up with my aunt who previously worked in a salon and told her I'd like to go lighter. The problem was that part of my hair was black, and the rest was grown-out roots (oh, and a bleached strand with pink residue left over from a previously purple experience). My aunt gave me highlights attempting to lighten my hair. This didn't turn out the best, but I knew it would take some time until my hair would be lightened. Long story short, my aunt left town a couple months ago and again I was left with no one to tend to my mess of a mane. When I showed up at Sojourn, I had highlighted black hair, highlighted natural hair, and non-highlighted, grown-out roots. Shannon took a look at me and I knew she was thinking what I already knew: This is gonna be a project! We talked about what I wanted and how we could realistically achieve it. She confirmed that this could take multiple visits in order to fix the damage that had been done, and I agreed that if that is what it would take then I'm all in. What I liked about Shannon was that she didn't just dive right in and give me highlights trying to make money off me while knowing that I would still be stuck in the same situation, but not wanting to deal with the time it would take to fix this. Shannon took her time and really thought about how to move forward, and even consulted with another stylist to perfect the process. In the end, she ended up adding color to my hair in order to blend the black (so that there wasn't such intense contrast like I had previously had), while also adding balyage highlights so that I wouldn't walk out without getting a little of what I want (which was to go lighter). In other words, I walked out with lighter AND darker hair. Lighter because that's what I requested, and Darker because that is what was necessary to correct the black color without actually going black. All in all, I left extremely pleased and will definitely be back! I'd also like to comment on the pleasantness of Shannon, the stylists, and staff at Sojourn. Every single person I talked to that was employed at Sojourn was extremely friendly and welcoming and it really felt like I was talking to family. This is a big deal because I'm the type of person who prefers to sit in silence at salons in order to avoid the awkward, inauthentic small talk, but these ladies really made me feel at home. I would 100% recommend Sojourn for your next visit. Give it a try!

    Bought a Groupon for this place, and will definitely be back! Shannon is incredible. I was greeted immediately and offered a beverage (yes, including wine! My color looks incredible and my cut is gorgeous. My highlights are very natural looking. The place is clean, modern and welcoming. Lots of products if you are looking to purchase as well. Highly recommend.

    Love when Ashley does my hair. Everyone thinks I'm an all natural blonde. Shhh. Don't tell them it's Ashley 's work!

    I only know about this place because of Ashley McNulty. She has been doing my hair for a few years and she also did all the hair for my wedding. When she started working at the salon I did not hesitate to go there. Once I got there I LOVED IT! They offered me coffee and the other women who worked there were very friendly. Will definitely be going back!

The place is clean, welcoming, and stylish. It was an overall amazing experience!! I also bought a dry brush for exfoliation and so far it works great. An awesome deal that Kasey offers is $48 Brazilian instead of $60 when you come in before 4 weeks. What a steal!! Highly recommend to anyone, 10/10 in all aspects. I've been coming to Kasey for sugaring ever since my first review and I have had consistent, positive experiences. Last time I got sugared Kasey referred me to Natalie for a hair cut and color and I am in love with my new hair!! Natalie is easy to talk to, knowledgeable, and professional! I enjoyed my experience with her and my hair looks fabulous. I had previously DIY box-dyed my hair from blonde to a dark brown, which washed out within a month or so, and she brought me back to the dark that I really wanted. I also did a split-end treatment that left my hair looking silky smooth. My previous stylist had also cut my hair a little funky, but Natalie fixed the choppiness and now it looks perfect. Her pricing is absolutely reasonable and she really knows best. I'm a forever fan of Sugar Junkie!! Great people and great service :)

    I have been a loyal European Wax Center customer for over 10 years, including regular visits to the…read moreRancho Cucamonga location before moving to Ventura County. Unfortunately, my experience at the Ventura location has been consistently disappointing due to one receptionist I've encountered repeatedly since 2019. Each time I visit, I am met with unnecessary pushback regarding promotions or discounts- despite them being valid offers sent directly to me. Instead of a smooth check-in or checkout process, these interactions often turn into awkward and uncomfortable exchanges in the front lobby. I am routinely made to feel as though I'm doing something wrong or "trying to pull a fast one," when I am simply using legitimate promotions provided by the company. During my most recent visit, I attempted to use a promotion for 50% off a new service not received within the last 12 months. When I mentioned this, the receptionist immediately responded in a short, dismissive tone, stating, "that's not a new service for you." I clarified that it had, in fact, been over 12 months. She sighed and reluctantly said she would "see" if the system would allow it only for the discount to go through without any issue. The interaction didn't improve from there. After paying, I waited for an envelope to leave a tip for my waxer. Instead of offering assistance, she passively pointed to a tray and told me they were "over there," without even looking up. The entire experience felt cold, dismissive, and unnecessarily uncomfortable. While I understand that everyone can have an off day, this has been my experience during every single interaction with this employee over the years. At this point, it feels less like an isolated incident and more like a pattern of behavior. It has even made me question whether there is a personal issue, or if this is how all clients are treated. Waxing is a personal service and, for many, a luxury due to the cost. The front desk experience should reflect professionalism and customer care- especially as it sets the tone for the entire visit. Unfortunately, that has not been the case here. I've hesitated to write this review for a long time, but after repeated negative experiences, it felt necessary. If this location is struggling with customer retention, I strongly recommend evaluating front desk interactions, as they are the first and last impression of your business and they matter. I wish I had taken down her name, but she is a red-haired female.
