Unfortunately i've never had a bad experience at a hair salon until now. I booked my appointment with Alyssa on 3/30 at 9am and left at 7PM , She wasted 10 hours of my time & didn't even give me what I asked for . I asked for a bright blonde and she did a brown orange . she fried my hair now I have to cut it short and on top of all that she charged me KNOWING I wasn't happy with my hair . Please save your money and time& don't book with her . read more

We were looking for a hair stylist for curly hair and decided to book with Amy based on the other great reviews. Amy took time to understand what we wanted and gave some suggestions and education for our particular textures. She also checked in during the cut to see if we wanted anything different. We are very happy with the final results. We love Amy. She takes a lot of pride in her work and has great communication! Whether you have curly hair or not, I think you'll get a great cut here read more

I really enjoyed my experience at Ultra Hair Studio. I've been with the same hairstylist for a while now but when neither of them responded I was forced to look elsewhere. I went on a deep dive yelp search and came across Ultra Hair Studio and saw people were saying good things about Amy and how she was good with curly hair. I made my appointment and it was such a great experience. The salon is cute and has calming vibes which is nice for relaxing. As for Amy she is fun, talkative, and really listens to what you want. She takes her time and is very detailed. Being a SAHM it was nice to talk to another adult and we had some good laughs. I HIGHLY recommend Amy and will definitely be back. read more

My go to place! Amy has been my stylist for a few years now and my hair is better than ever! So healthy and shiny. Bonus is the great conversations we have! read more

Ultra Hair Studio - This was taken myself, so don't mind the horrible picture skills. Just look at that shine! - Hair Salons Near Me - Whittier, California

Darlene is a curl goddess!!! I'm so happy I finally found someone who knows what my curly hair needs. She never disappoints and truly listens to all my concerns and works with me to get the hair I want. It's so hard finding someone who knows how to cut my curly hair because my curls shrink so much. She always does such a great job and I'm never letting anyone else touch my hair! She has colored my hair twice and both time the color was exactly what I wanted and it didn't do a lot of damage my curls. If you have curly hair and haven't found someone you love and trust, I definitely recommend checking Darlene out. read more

Ultra Hair Studio - Color and cut by Darlene - Hair Salons Near Me - Whittier, California

I found Ultra using Yelp. They're about 5 minutes from my house and were able to squeeze me on short notice. And I'm so grateful i did. My appointment was for 9 am which is also their opening time but they let me in when I got there 10 minutes early and greeted me warmly. Natalie was my stylist and I couldn't have been in better hands! She was very knowledgeable and helped me decide on a long term plan to get my hair healthy and my desired shade. She chatted with me but not so much that I felt overwhelmed and told me everything she was doing and why, always making sure I was on board with what she was doing. I walked out with gorgeous color and silky smooth hair. My pictures don't do it justice but I know she did a good job because my nephew didn't recognize me from behind read more

I was long overdue for a haircut. I wanted to try a salon that was closer to home so I turned to my trusty yelp app and found this place in Montebello. I read the reviews and decided to make an appointment with Darlene. I kinda felt the need to do something different, maybe some highlights. Thanks to this salon I discovered the ombre look. I decided to talk to lovely Darlene about it and give it a try. I wanted a softer ombre and not the intense dark to blond look. She knew exactly what I was talking about. The salon is small, clean and cozy. You can park in front of the salon or in the lil lot in the back. Darlene was super friendly, she was a great listener and very knowledgable. The ombre turned out perfect and the cut was great. Great experience at this salon! I am definitely coming back! read more

Ultra Hair Studio - Ombre by Darlene - Hair Salons Near Me - Whittier, California

I walked in one day just to check it out, and Maggie was the one who greeted me. She was so sweet and warm that it made me feel like I had been going for years. She asked what I wanted and did exactly that. She does fantastic color as well. I just gave her a more or less what I wanted and it ended up coming out better than expected. Im one happy customer and still continue going and trusting Maggie with my hair :) read more

Ultra Hair Studio has to be one of the best hair salons around. The service is great, very welcoming and inviting. I had my hair cut, dyed, and styled. I couldn't have asked for better results! This is a place worth coming back to and telling all my friends about! Darlene always works her magic! She rocks! Most recent color was on point!! - August 2018 read more

I was in need of finding a new hair stylist and found this place through yelp. My stylist was Karina and she was was amazing! She did exactly what I asked for, and gave me great suggestions for upkeep/helping me as much as she could with my partially damaged hair. The salon is clean and well kept would highly recommend read more

I've been following Darlene since she worked at Carlton. She is the best in business!!! Before her I did not trust anyone with my hair. Her staff is also amazing, very friendly. read more

Paris did an amazing job on my curly hair. It turned out better than I wanted. Yay! I will definitely be back.

I've been getting my hair done with Darlene for years & I'm so glad she has her own place now! Ultra Hair Studio is a quaint spot with cute decor. They use great products and do the works there! The girls are super nice and make you feel at home :) It's hard to find a good hair stylist that REALLY knows what their doing...and Darlene does NOT disappoint! read more

I got my eyebrows threaded and a hair trim on a Saturday morning. I made an appointment - although it was busy, Maggie saw me right on time. Eyebrows - I had asked her to clean up my eyebrows. It was a lot less painful than all the other places I've gotten my eyebrows threaded at. The last time I waxed them was quite awhile ago, so I can't really compare the two pains. But I do remember that I barely teared when Maggie did my eyebrows. Then I asked her to shape it a bit - I didn't know how I wanted it, so I asked her to choose. She did an amazing job! Hair - so I came in for a trim, same cut that I had - just a bit shorter. After my wash, she started to "examine" my hair. She was very thorough and seemed to do a great job. Se kept my layers. Now the reason for the loss of a star - I've never seen my bangs cut the way she did them. But they looked okay after she blew dried my hair. Sooo the problem is that she curled my hair and stuff so I couldn't really see my hair until after I washed my hair to see how it looked. Although she kept the layers and the bangs, she seemed to have added her own style to it. I didn't really like the style in which she cut my bangs, but it seems to look okay. The layers look nice, although not as long as I had hoped... But that seems to be more my fault for not specifying when she cut it. All in all, thy are very nice and courteous. And my hair ended up looking pretty nice. read more

I found Ultra Hair Salon from yelp and first came into the salon as a walk-in. I was helped by Paris (or is it Parris?) who was fantastic. Very friendly and professional. I was going from blonde to dark and everyone knows that a terrible transition time. They use Schwarzkopf color which also happens to be what I've been using to color my hair since I started so that was a definite plus. Paris was very understanding and listened to everything I said. She has a good eye and cut my hair perfectly. I've gone to her a few times now and she always does a great job. The salon does get busy, but Paris has never shorted me on attention at any point of being there. The other stylists are just as friendly and personable as well. I definitely consider myself a regular now since I wouldn't trust my dye jobs to anyone else now. -The prices are on the lower end for salons that I've been to, but they are in the average price range for hair salons. You aren't going to be getting a Supercuts or a Fantastic Sam's cut/color so don't expect the prices to be. -The location can be tricky to spot, but keep in mind that it is at the end of the row of stores and nearby an empty lot on the corner. -Also when you first go they have you fill out a customer form thing and if you give them your email they on occasion have specials for a month or extra things that they offer at the salon.I took advantage of a cut&color one a few months ago. It's a really good deal. -they do close fairly early 6-7pm, but on one occasion Paris stayed a little later than usual to finish up my cut & color. I was working till late so I couldn't get there earlier, but she was amazing and worked with my schedule which definitely means a lot. read more

I highly recommend this place for many reasons. For one, Paris always gets it right. I am very easygoing and believe in letting the artist work their canvas, but for some reason every other place I went to would end up making my hair look the same. Not with Paris- she just gets it. She's highly trained and constantly working to improve her craft. She is teaching at a beauty college and that speaks for itself. My hair went from boring everyday curl to blonde bombshell. I am so happy here and thankful for her. I love the staff and the environment. No pretentious attitudes here as in other salons. Everyone is friendly and welcoming. Appointments are easy to make. Very happy after 20 something years of searching :-) read more

This is my second review at this salon. I have been trying to let my grey grow out and having highlights put in hoping to make the transition easier. I remembered this other hairdresser (Paris) who's hair color was impressive to me and decided to try her. I'm so glad I did. She took almost all of the gold out of my hair and it blends so much better. She asked a lot of questions and really nailed it. If you are looking for a colorist, PARIS is the one. I'm very pleased. read more

Ultra Hair Studio - I love Parris. Her service is thoughtful and amazing. She is true to her craft and it shows! #flawlesscolor #flawlesscut - Hair Salons Near Me - Whittier, California

They moved from Montebello to this new location with the same great smile, service and skills. My hair is very important for the type of work I do. I am very happy with Darlene and Paris. read more

Can't say enough about this salon! Its beautifully decorated and superbly ran by the stylists. After having my hair long for years, I finally made the decision to cut it and although I was very apprehensive and nervous, Parris was very reassuring and I couldn't have been happier with the final look! She even suggested making the cut a-symmetrical which I thought was crazy but I LOVE IT! Parris is a genius and Darlene is a gem! I never get my hair done anywhere else. Prices are very very reasonable and the customer service and the quality of work cant be beat! If your looking for a new stylist you have to try this salon out!! read more

I couldn't be happier. Paris cut my hair so nice and clean! She's really nice and cut my hair so its even. I had her cut it very short and I am in love with it. I would recommend her to anyone. read more

First time at this salon and it was amazing! I was nervous because I wanted a makeover with my hair. I saw Darlene, she helped me pick a color and style that I would have never even considered. She was sweet and attentive to my concerns and even gave me some tips and hacks on quickly styling and maintaining my hair. I Absolutely love my new look and recommend Darlene!!! She's the best!!! read more

I got my hair done by Parris about a year ago (June 2017) and I am still receiving compliments on how good it looks. It was my first time changing my hair color in a long time and I asked for a balayage with light brown tones so that the change was subtle (since my hair is naturally brown) and Parris nailed it. She gave me exactly what I wanted and I was so happy with my hair. It has grown out a lot since then but the color still look really good. I am planning on going back to her soon to get it re-done and I would highly recommend Parris to anyone! read more

Ultra Hair Studio should be called "Magic-in-a-box"! Darlene is amazing! I have been getting my hair cut with her for quite some time now, and I am never planning on going anywhere else. She is very down to earth, friendly, funny, and a genius with those scissors. The salon is super clean, and the other ladies that work there are very kind +friendly. Altogether, they all make my experience refreshing every single time I step through the door. Much deserved 5 *.*.*.*.* read more

Darlene has been cutting my hair for over 10 years and I'm so glad she opened her own shop! My hair is long and thick and other stylists had trouble taming my mane. I used to dread hair appointments (I've even left salons crying) and would wear a ponytail or baseball hat most days until I met Darlene. Darlene does an amazing job with my hair, taking the time to make sure each strand of hair is cut, colored, and put into place. I love that she offers honest advice and isn't afraid to tell me that a color or haircut will not work with my face shape or hair type. She has also come in early or stayed late to accommodate my busy work schedule. The shop is super cute but small (so advance appointments are a must). There are also great brushes, shampoo and conditioner, and styling products available from all my favorite brands. I've had blow outs, up-dos, highlights, cut and color and never been disappointed! read more

This place is great I've been a customer for a year now after carlton in montebello closed down and I love their service!! Maggie and Veronica are both great hair stylist... Plus they have positive personalities. read more

The hair stylists here are professional and very approachable. My hair stylist is Paris and she rocks. Glad this place is close to home :) read more

I'm really picky when it comes to my hair I either want blonde highlights or dark hair. Paris is always able to help me out with my decision and she knows what I want. She also tells me what I need to do to keep my hair healthy which I love that's my goal is to have healthy hair since I had a really bad experience with a hairstylist years ago. This is a super cute place all of the girls are friendly and always have nice hair! They just moved from Montebello to Uptown Whittier so give them a try you won't be disappointed! read more

Maggie is amazing she has been cutting my hair and doing my eyebrows for quiet some time now. She is very professional and does an amazing job. She always ask me " how do you want your hair done this time?" and I always tell her surprise me because in the end I know I'll love it. I will not let anyone else touch my eyebrows or hair. She is also amazing with cutting my child hair, she makes her feel so comfortable and has a lot of patience with her. If anyone is looking for a friendly, professional and clean environment this is the place to go. Sincerely one happy customer Cynthia M. Alvarado read more

I really love Ultra. I discovered this salon about two years ago on Yelp! and Parris has been my go to gal every time. She really listens to what I want.

I really recommend this little gem! read more

Ultra Hair Studio - Love the ambiance of this salon! - Hair Salons Near Me - Whittier, California

My name is Nancy and I came to get my hair cut after a year and once again my stylist, Parris, knocks it out of the park! She always executes the style I ask for and then goes above and beyond. She always makes me feel comfortable and made sure my health and safety was a priority during this time. I feel so confident and I absolutely love my hair. Thank you again Parris! read more

I first came to this salon over a year ago, and soon became a loyal client. This is where I met my fabulous hairstylist, Maggie :))....Maggie does everything for me, from cutting my hair, coloring, makeup, and threading. I loved the way she did my highlights! They looked so natural! When my roots came in she found a way to give me my natural color back without coloring my whole head! I came to her for threading and when I asked for an arch she gave me an arch even though I naturally have rounded eyebrows!! I love my long hair and she never cuts too much off when she trims my ends and bangs. Maggie is very patient, and she takes her time so that it's perfect! She has a remarkable strategy with blending makeup and it's absolutely gorgeous! Maggie has been working with cosmetics for a long time now and her experience is revealed among other clients and I!! I commute from Rancho Cucamonga to Montebello every three months to get my hair and brows done...no regrets this far read more

The owner here is not very friendly at all! I have gone 3 times and she never even smiles or says hi. She just looks at you from head to toe. & the worker there that is always changing her hair color is always in a bad mood she looks angry and doesn't even greet you. Never coming back again. Customer service is just a joke!!! read more
