I appreciate that she checks in with me to see if I'm happy with the progress at each stage of the cut. I will make the drive from SD just to see her. I'm not sure how my haircuts just get better with each visit (literally not exaggerating look at the photos). Booking an appointment is a breeze since she's so responsive. I want to gate keep her so bad but her skills and attention to detail needs to be shared. I always have a calm and peaceful experience at her studio. She has such a sweet and easygoing personality. I'll be back, Hyejin!!

Y'all, let me put you ON this place. Jessie/Jin is the best. The first time I came in was last year…read morefor a hair cut. I had just moved to the area again and wanted to find a hairstylist during my time here. I read a review that said she'll let you know her honest opinion and I'm so glad because for me personally, I would hate it if I came in wanting something and the hairstylist thinks it's ugly (but is quiet about it) and I walk out feeling regretful that I wanted to try xyz lol. My first haircut came out nicely after we chatted about what I wanted and what she thinks would look best, and she recommended me a brown I should try in the future. Today is that future time. It's my second time here! I came in knowing vaguely what I wanted (Some sort of lighter brown with bangs since I had black hair with no bangs lol). We chatted and then I simply trusted the process. She ended up giving me curtain bangs that can also be a little wispy also, and cut my hair to a length that looked soooo good. There was so much attention to detail when she was cutting too. It was great. For the color, she said that a lighter color might not actually look the best on me and a subtle brown might be better! I was pretty down for whatever she thought looked good so I trusted the process again. Let me tell you... this subtle brown looked so good with the cut. Also, my hair? Soft as HECK. It was kinda gritty before so I was shook when I touched my hair after the appt. She chatted with me lots and also gave me space too. It was a great balance and also she answered my questions!! I always have so many questions and she answered them all for me!! Including... how to style my hair because I suck at those things. I'll take any advice and tips I can get. Price is reasonable for OC too! TLDR; I walked in with messy hair that made me look dead inside and walked out with softer dyed hair AND styling knowledge. If that isn't a win, I don't know what is.

Out of all the stylists I've had, she is by far my favorite, and I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone who truly knows what they're doing and delivers consistently beautiful results.

Since her regular hairstylist was away on vacation, I decided to look for someone new nearby in Irvine and came across Lily's Salon on Yelp. After reading all the glowing reviews, I had high hopes and I can honestly say every single one was true. Lily was incredibly kind, sweet, and so patient with my daughter. From the moment we walked in, she made us feel comfortable and cared for. What surprised me most was hearing my daughter say she likes Lily even more than the hairstylist she's been going to for the past year! That alone says everything. I'll definitely be recommending Lily to all my family and friends. Thank you, Lily, for such a wonderful experience, we're already looking forward to seeing you again next month!

Her technique is also a true balayage that blends seamlessly and gives hair wonderful dimension, and I'm impressed by her ability to lighten hair in one setting then toning to get Asian hair to a more ashy, cool-toned since Asian black-brown hair tends to pull red/orangey by nature. You can see her work on instagram @hair_by_na_na She uses super quality products too like schwarzkopf and olaplex. I left with my hair feeling really soft and healthy despite the bleaching. I also like hearing from stylists what they recommend as maintenance. She was very thorough and detailed with her aftercare tips! - No shampooing for 3 days (she said water only is ok - not too cold or hot). This allows the cuticles to close while the color is getting deposited into your hair. - Start using a purple shampoo in 3 weeks to help keep brassiness at bay. - Use sulfate-free colored hair friendly shampoo/conditioner like Pureology. - Use something like Olaplex or K18 to keep hair strong and healthy. - In 2 months, come back for toning to refresh color. My balayage and cut took about 4.5 hours. Nana and Sean work together with the foiling and painting so it speeds things up. She provided a Fiji water and there's a little basket of snacks there too that you can munch on while she does her thing.
