Unfortunately, my experience this past Tuesday was extremely disappointing. My appointment was scheduled for 3:00 pm. I arrived on time, but there was no one at the front desk, and a few stylists assumed I was a walk-in. The stylist who was supposed to do my pixie cut was still with another client, blow-drying her sopping wet bob-length hair, and didn't acknowledge me for quite a while. When he finally did, he said he would be finished in 15 minutes. I told him if it would take longer, I would rather not wait, especially since I had driven 35 minutes from Orange County (one way). I left briefly and came back at 3:15 pm, but he was still with the same client. A professional would have communicated a delay and respected the client's time. By 3:21 pm, when I decided to leave, he was still styling her hair with no end in sight. Meanwhile, another employee attempted to divert me by offering a shampoo. She handed me a robe that was far too small and insisted I wear it, even though I explained I didn't mind hair falling on my clothes since I was going to the gym afterward. I also mentioned my long drive, and she responded with an insincere comment about how "beautiful" the 91 freeway is--something that felt dismissive and patronizing. As she led me to the shampoo area, she rolled her eyes and made faces to a coworker. At that point, I stood up, told her not to make faces, and informed the stylist I was canceling my appointment. The entire atmosphere felt unprofessional and immature--more like a schoolyard than a salon. There was no customer service, no apology, and no manager present to address the situation. I genuinely feel bad for the salon owner, who may not even be aware of how poorly NEW clients are being treated.

I was nearby the area getting off of work & it worked out so well! I had asked for face framing bangs, layers and my long hair being kept in tact. I had so much dead ends and i needed a change! It wasn't a drastic change but it was so needed and so refreshing. Crystal helped me out and made me feel like a new person, as she would call it my Alter Ego!

I'm usually a little disappointed, but not this time--everything exceeded my expectations! Cindy was incredible! I shared an inspiration photo, and she offered guidance and suggestions, which I truly appreciate in a stylist. It shows she genuinely cares and wants the best for her clients. She was also attentive, asked thoughtful questions about what I liked and the results I was aiming for, and was so friendly throughout the process. I also liked that she didn't pressure me to do anything I didn't want. She is definitely my new hair stylist!

'Im so happy with the results…read more Cindy did a wonderful job with my color correction. I had a lot of brassy tones Abd my grays was overwhelming my roots. Im in the process of growing out my gray roots and blending my grays w my hair. To achieve it Cindy helped me decide on what's right for me. Everyone will have a different journey with gray blending or when you grow out your Grey. I'm glad I found Cindy and she made it easy for me. You will start with a consultation and she will take the time to explain the process and what I need to do for my hair care routine And together you'll make a plan. Just do it. Treat yourself. I'm glad I did. I'm returning again in 8 weeks and we will see what's the next step for me. Just be patient because growing out your grays is a process. I got super lucky my first session was a slam dunk. Thanks Cindy!! See u soon.

It was lovely to see the stylists have assistants to help them with each client, as if they were the only ones in the store. Plus the complimentary beverages were offered to both me and my niece, which was super awesome! I got the "Brad Pitt" latte, which was tasty! My niece didn't partake, but that was ok. Once she was done, payment was easy and my niece said her hair felt and looked amazing! She actually wanted to know what products were used in her hair (when they did the complimentary shampoo and rinse) because she said it was so soft! I'll definitely be back!

Also last minute I decided to do a treatment and I kid you not my hair has never been this shiny and healthy. Originally I wanted a Brazilian blowout but she recommended I try the keratin treatment instead and I'm so happy I went with that to keep my hair healthy but still give me the outcome I wanted :) I loved everything about my experience getting my hair done she is so sweet and makes it a fun experience. I liked that she has a tv and music options for entertainment so it wasn't like any awkward silence like I've experienced in past salons so that's a huge plus for me lol I will most definitely be rebooking once it's time for a touch up!

My previous hairdresser who I'd been going to for 4 years moved out of state. As a person with an…read moreanxiety disorder, this was pretty stressful for me. For months I searched for the right person to do my hair. Someone I felt I could be comfortable with and who was also talented. I searched through the Sola Salon Studios directory and found Brooke - Salon Obscura. After following her on Instagram for a few months, I booked an appointment. I was admittedly a little nervous going in to my appointment (and probably sounded a little bit crazy because of it lol) but as soon as I started chatting with Brooke about what I had done with my hair previously and my current hair wants/needs, I knew I was in good hands. Her salon is clean and cozy, which is a plus. We watched Schitt's Creek while she did my hair and now I'm addicted My hair came out so much better than I expected! Brooke took my ideas and put her own twist on it and it came out AMAZING! She's a color specialist, so she definitely knows what she's doing. Her pricing is reasonable, especially because of how quick she is (it took my previous hair gal 6+ hours to do my hair and Brooke about 3.5 hours), but keep in mind that reasonable doesn't mean cheap! For this level of expertise, expect to pay for quality work -- especially if you're getting multiple services done like I was. Definitely check her out on Instagram so you get a feel for her work and her vibe! You won't regret it!

I can't say enough good things about Amazing Cuts and Lyda, the owner. She is genuinely one of the…read morekindest, most positive people you will ever meet. Not only is she an incredible human, but her haircuts are always absolutely dialed in. She truly cares about her work and takes her time to make sure the final result is perfect every single visit. My brother is also a barber, but he lives too far away for me to see regularly. When we moved to the Long Beach/Lakewood area, I started searching for someone local--and my brother told me the mark of a truly excellent barber is consistency: being able to deliver a great haircut every single time. Before I found Lyda, I tried other barbers where the cut would turn out differently from visit to visit (even with the same person), and I was never fully happy with the results. Lyda is the opposite--she's consistent, detail-oriented, and the results are solid every time. Honestly, the shop should be called Exceptional Cuts because that's exactly what she delivers. Lyda consistently goes the extra mile to make sure her clients are happy, comfortable, and confident when they leave. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does and truly cares about her clients. I always leave feeling great, and seeing her genuinely makes my entire day better. I'm grateful for the attention, care, and pride she puts into her work. I've been going to Lyda for over two years now, and I can't imagine trusting anyone else with my hair. My wife also comes to see Lyda and feels the exact same way--she's the best. Thank you, Lyda, for always doing such an exceptional job.

If you have a vision for your hair, she will execute that vision. She's helped me try different hairstyles throughout the years and even with thinning hair she can cut your hair to make it look more thicker. She understands people where both extraverted and introverted people can enjoy her. Highly recommend! My brother, mom and friends all have got their haircuts from her because of my recommendation. Be respectful of her. Try to avoid late cancellations and be sure you can make your appointment consistently. If you do this you can become a VIP client.

This can be hard to do, especially since I have ethnic hair and about a decade of vivids, henna color, and other experiments in my hair. I came in with blue and purple fun hair. This is my hair after two sessions and she's done a great job delivering on Grey blending. She found an ashy beige that would work with blending in with my silvers. She really understands color. Rizza also has very chill energy and listens to your requests. I also needed to handle personal medical stuff during my appointment and she was very helpful about it.
