I walked in last minute today not knowing what to expect... and wow. Tony absolutely delivered…read more For $40 I got one of the best cuts I've had in years. I upgraded to include a wash and blow dry for $10 more (so $50 total), and it was worth every single dollar. First of all, the wash. Tony washed my hair so thoroughly and thoughtfully. It didn't feel rushed or mechanical. It felt intentional and relaxing, like he truly cares about the experience. Then the cut. Clean, balanced, and exactly what I needed. He paid attention to detail and shaped it beautifully. It's one of those haircuts where you leave feeling lighter, fresher, and more put together. The fact that this was a last-minute walk-in makes it even more impressive. If you're looking for someone skilled, kind, and reasonably priced, go see Tony. I'm so glad I found him and I'll definitely be back. Thank you, Tony!

I am extremely disappointed with the service at SK Salon. My wife went in for a haircut and the…read morestylist, Tony, clearly told her she could come back one time for a free bang trim. When she returned for that trim, he started arguing about it and making a big deal as if she was asking for something unreasonable. This is not about the cost of a trim. It is about honesty and professionalism. If you tell a customer something, you should stand by it. Saying one thing and then refusing to honor it later shows a complete lack of integrity. Very unprofessional and disrespectful experience. EDIT* This is not a malicious review, it is an honest account of our experience. Reviews are meant for customers to share what happened. There was no discussion about specific time slots. The only statement made was that "no place would cut bangs for free," which directly contradicts what was originally told to us. Again this is not about the cost. It is about consistency and professionalism. If something is offered, it should be honored, or at least communicated clearly and respectfully. We simply shared what happened.

I came to The Maya Salon for a last-minute trim. After calling several salons trying to get a last…read moreminute appointment, this was the only place that had an opening. Finding the salon was easy and there was parking right out front, which made it even better. I stay in South Pasadena on weekends at my boyfriend's house, so I decided to give it a try. EJ was incredibly kind and welcoming. I arrived a few minutes early while he was finishing with another client, and he saw me right at my appointment time. He also offered drinks and snacks, which I really appreciated because I definitely needed the caffeine boost that day. He washed my hair and gave me the trim I desperately needed, removing all my split ends while still keeping my hair long just like I asked. I'm always nervous about losing too much length, but he really listened and delivered exactly what I wanted. His station was also very cute and calming, with plants around the mirror and a dream catcher. I deal with anxiety, so I really appreciated his relaxing energy during the appointment. I usually get my trims done in Beverly Hills with my longtime stylist, and I was pleasantly surprised that the price here was about the same -- $120, which is pretty standard for a good trim in Beverly Hills as well. Since I happened to be in the area, I thought "why not?" and I'm really glad I did because it turned out to be such a pleasant experience.

She did exactly that and styled it the exact same and it looked amazing! I went home and realized that I actually wanted it more flat than voluminous so I messaged her the same night and asked if I could come in to get it thinned out more and she managed to squeeze me in the next day. She was very kind and thinned it out exactly how I wanted and I can't be happier with my cut. I could tell she was booked through the day back to back so for her to make room for me the next day since I was traveling the day after was very sweet of her. I seriously can't imagine going to someone else to get my hair done after coming here. Tia is accommodating, friendly, experienced, and hardworking.

Ladies, proceed with caution…read more I walked in for a shoulder length haircut with layers. The lady didn't seem to be paying attention, parting my hair in the way I didn't want it and missing an entire section of my hair. She even jabbed my scalp with an electric shaver and left a mark. I stood up after she styled my hair, removed the collar, and said she was done. Then she suddenly told me to sit back down because she forgot something. She had missed the whole back of my neck and went back in to cut it with scissors and a shaver. She left a ton of prickly pieces of hair debris in my jacket from this, and it's sooo uncomfortable when those pieces stab your skin! The next day, the right side of my head felt heavier than the left. I noticed chunks of hair that were blunt and cut unevenly. I think the positive reviews on this salon are mostly for the man and not the woman hairdresser. The men coming into the salon were practically glowing by the time they walked out. I felt like this woman is here because she needs something to do. I tipped out of pity.

Grace immediately got to work after we communicated what I was looking for, using the reference photos she asked for along with her own input as a hush cut specialist. The salon itself is very clean, airy, and modern. Despite looking small from the outside, it doesn't feel small at all. There's no strong chemical smell from hair dyes, ammonia, or bleach, which I really appreciated. The staff are super friendly and made me feel comfortable right away. I would definitely come back again in the future. After the cut, my confidence level boosted so much. Thank you Grace.

When reasonable pre-service questions about timing, sessions, cost, and hair health are treated as…read morea problem, that's something potential clients should know. I reached out before booking a $500-$600 hair service because I genuinely care about my hair and wanted to be thoughtful before committing. I asked straightforward questions about how many sessions it might take, how long it would take, pricing, and how my hair health would be handled. These were not abstract questions. They were about my own hair and my own money. At first, I was told I could come in for a more direct consultation. When I followed up and asked when a good time would be, the tone changed. I was told this is "not an educational organization," that questions about my own hair should be directed to my previous stylist, and that consultations were not available because they were "too busy," especially on Fridays and Saturdays. That honestly caught me off guard, especially after being encouraged to come in. It started to feel like asking questions at all was unwelcome. What bothered me wasn't that they were busy. I get that. It was how I was shut down. Instead of simply saying we might not be the right fit, the responses felt dismissive and made it seem like I was being difficult for wanting clarity. I stayed polite the entire time and never asked for anything unreasonable. I just didn't want to walk in blind. This experience was especially disappointing because I chose this salon intentionally after reading negative reviews and believing the public responses showed care and accountability. I understand every business has bad reviews and nobody is perfect. But after this interaction, those reviews suddenly made a lot more sense. I'll be honest: I almost booked based on the photos alone. The work looks beautiful. But talent isn't the only thing that matters. Integrity, communication, and having a client's best interest in mind matter just as much. Sharing this so others know to read beyond the pictures and decide for themselves what kind of experience they want. No one should feel small or brushed off for asking questions before paying for a service.

The cut has incredible flow and dimension -- the layers are seamless, light, and give my hair natural volume without sacrificing length. The face-framing pieces and airy bangs blend perfectly, adding structure while still feeling effortless. What impressed me most was the precision.

Beyond the technical skill, the experience was smooth and professional. My stylist listened carefully, understood exactly what would work for my hair texture, and executed it with confidence. This is the kind of work that looks polished but never overdone. Highly recommend if you're looking for refined layering and movement that actually lasts.
