I have thin hair, and it can be hard to find a hairstylist that can do long layers while keeping the bottom layer looking full. I had a bad haircut right before my wedding and he was able to fix it. He also made sure to cut it in a way that will perfectly fit my plans for an updo. Thank you SO SO much!!

My haircut is simple, easy, and fast. anyone could have taken 3 inches off and especially were I was coming in with it already washed and ready to go. I'd even asked if there was someone else there willing. Manager seemed very unimpressed with the efforts I made to be there on time and unsympathetic to my circumstances. maybe they figured they weren't gonna make bank off of a haircut, however I'm a great tipper. They canceled it because the hairstylist took on a color re-correction, but I'm such an easy cut I feel like they could have respected my time and effort to be there and cut while the color was processing. they simply didn't care for my business and thought a simple cut wasn't worth their time. Fortunately I did reach out to another salon and after I explained my circumstances they squeezed me in. They were apologetic for the other salons mistreatment and showed me wonderful customer service. I'm a simple haircut, but that doesn't mean you wouldn't make good money off of it. Believe me the hairstyle willing to fit me in and sympathize with the circumstance of being a mom of four will be tipped big time and have a loyal customer. this wasn't just a fail of the hairstylist Addie but the salon as a whole.

After a couple of pictures he started right away and recreated it pretty accurately. He was very nice explaining how to style it after the cut and also explained the details of his work :) The salon itself was clean and bright. I was confused at first, but it is the corner salon right off the block! I think he is also a very sweet and chill person and has a lot of experience cutting hair! I think if you tell him some details he will give you good advice. You should definitely try the salon if you're looking to cut all sorts of styles, especially Asian hair. He is also fluent in English and Korean! I would come back again :) thank you Touru!

The highlights placement was completely different from what I asked for, the cut was significantly shorter than requested, and the styling honestly made everything look worse. What's most frustrating is that I felt like my concerns and requests were largely ignored throughout the appointment. I left feeling shocked and upset, especially given the price (450) and the salon's reputation. I'm posting this because I genuinely would like the salon to make this right, whether through a refund or correction with a different stylist.

Yet after I leave his salon, I have a smile on my face and a spring in my step. He makes me look my best. He is a real gem. I have been going to him for 22 years. There are many other stylists, closer to my home but going to him after all these years is always a treat! Try him, you will not be disappointed!

Augusto is a skilled professional who gives you the best of both worlds; vision for a cut that is…read moresuitable to you, and respect for your wishes. He manages to blend these two sometimes divergent factors to create a gorgeous and manageable look FOR ANYONE. Case in point; I first heard of Augusto when at a restaurant I saw a woman in her early 20's whose hair was so stunning and flattering I just had to ask who her stylist was. She mentioned Augusto. Still leery of venturing out (what if this girls hair was a one-off? What if he gave the same exact haircut to every girl regardless of any other factor? What if my unruly hair is too much for this virtuoso to handle?) I did not call or make an appointment, just a mental note. Then, some time later, I met a woman in her mid 50's who had a completely different but equally flattering look. She happened to volunteer in conversation that she was a long time devotee of this Augusto that was recommended to me before. What? This as-yet-unknown-to-me man was able to cut two completely different hair styles for two completely different lengths and types of hair on women from two completely different generations, and pull off a striking look for both?? I was sold! As someone who knows relatively little about hair I am able to give him a very vague idea of what I have in mind and he inevitably will come up with something simply PERFECT. I have very thick, wavy, course hair which I have been told is a challenge to cut. Well, I know from personal experience that it is definitely a challenge to style!! Augusto changes all that. Every time I leave his chair I manage to feel gorgeous, with a cut that I am very happy with. Apparently I don't only feel gorgeous but also look that way, because I have been so many times complimented on my hair I have had to recommend so many people. Better still, I can always style the cut easily!! It's only a bonus that Augusto, through his professionalism and charisma, manages to make a friend of every client. He is friendly in a very unobtrusive way. Several very fun and interesting people wander into his shop, some of them for their hair appointment and others simply to stop by and say hello to Augusto and all of his guests. He will take his time on your hair and his painstaking attention to detail is seen in the results. You may have to wait a few moments, but it is one hundred percent worth it. I don't mind waiting as I know when the scissors hit my hair, the job will never be rushed. With my hair type, to be able to find a stylist who listens to your preferences, is able to find a cut that is very flattering for you within your desires, and makes it manageable for a novice to recreate at home on a daily basis, has proved a lifelong impossibility until now. Augusto is the needle in the haystack!!

I had to come back the last time so Candice could fix my cut, clearly annoyed, and left me with a choppy bang-like piece that I ended up fixing elsewhere. Then this last visit I showed her a photo of what I wanted - a very blunt shoulder length bob. Pretty simple. I was there 20 minutes tops and wasn't shown the back with a mirror, and when I got home and looked with my own mirror, I found the cut was uneven, angled, and longer at the front. Sure it looked nice after being blow dried, and I typically play around with my hair afterwards to to be sure the cut flows nicely, but I felt uncomfortably rushed with her standing at the register waiting for me. The floor should also be swept between each client. That was definitely my last visit there.
