I found Rena the hairstylist through a mutual friend. I was pleasantly surprised with my results ! The shop was nice and clean and easy to find. They also do nails and lashes if I had more time today I would get the works. Rena is so sweet , and made sure my experience was memorable. I've already booked my next appt ! read more

I came across Rena on style seat and I was so happy I did. Not only was she a very good communicator but she was very understanding as I was sick at the time that I booked and I had to keep rescheduling. The shop is nice and very clean and Rena and the staff are very personable. Rena did a great job on my hair and I definitely recommend her as well as use her again. read more

Yssl Hair Studio - Hair Salons Near Me - Bixby Knolls, California

Came here on whim to get a trim and was welcomed by Rina with open arms after frantically searching high and low for a place that could still be open. (It was 7:30pm). We arrived not knowing what to expect and left with a smile and finally, bangs-that-aren't-too-long-or-short. I will definitely come back here for another trim or if possible eyelash extensions!! read more

I forgot to add. Before telling me about some black guy she was dating who was very "n*iggerish", she went outside for a while and came back In smelling like weed. She also talked crap about the girls hair she did before me saying that the girl "needed it redone and not washed" but she wanted to get the money either way. Do yourself an favor and go to a professional. It is what it is and she isn't worth the money read more

I am very select with people I deal with, ESPECIALLY when it comes to my looks. In my line of work, I am usually the front line of a promotional company or major 400-500 company. With that being said, I completely trust Kristen with my hair. I had my hair colored last year to a brown,gold color with highlight, and I STILL get compliments daily. She is patient, and listens which is most important to me. I never want someone to not take my wants and considerations into account when it comes to my hair, BUT also, respects her for letting me know what she recommends especially since this is her line of profession. Mine is public speaking, I can't tell someone about colors and highlights. Lol. So thanks again, (sorry for the delay in writing how happy I was/am), and thank you for being YOU! read more

AshleyAyanna is without a doubt the best stylist there. She is beyond professional and she knows what she's doing. She's the only person I trust to do my hair. I would give her 10 stars if I could! read more

NEVER AGAIN! I would never recommend this place to anyone! From the get go - I made an appointment for 6:30am she no showed. Said her phone died - gave me a complimentary lash. Understand things & life happens okay. I make appointments and almost everytime tries to reschedule. I sent a picture of how my hair looked & how I wanted it. Paid $90 for bullshit ass hair. I asked for black hair - my roots are still brown. She blames it on "MY" miscommunication. I drove 45 minutes to get my hair done for her to say I can't do what you want. As she argues with me that this "misunderstanding" was all my fault. I get upset and ask to leave. Keep in mind I have color in my hair as she allows me to leave. My appointment was at 6pm - I was 4 minutes late. As I am arriving I receive a text that says she has an event and can I come the following day. So unprofessional - never again will I give this place business. Too bad I can't attach print screens informing you that I would be late the first appointment & showing you exactly what I wanted. But a no show for your client is acceptable. Thanks for leaving my hair looking shitty after paying you for services you didn't do. I leave for out of town in the morning at 5AM. Since you insist on keep updating your response after several weeks should I bring up your messyness that ruined a pair of my pants because you didn't inform me before I arrived that your machine that accepted cards was down and you asked me to leave with my hair in a cap to be able to pay you. It's not my problem that your machine is down and it's your responsibility to inform you clients. As I also mentioned in the text the hair dye got on my seats and door panel. So you can stop now! Nobody is slandering your business - it's preventing others from having to pay OVERPRICED for services they won't receive. When I left your salon the first time & second time - neither were blue as shown in the picture so regardless what did I pay you for? A bad attitude & a lesson to never use your salon again. If you were so confident in your work & you say you've been in the business so long - why did you have to confirm with a colleague wether you should apply bleach again to my hair? read more

Pretty clean place. Everyone was super friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this hair studio to anyone.

Kristen has restored my once damaged hair to healthy hair. I came to her 3 years ago and have only had her hands touch my hair since. From coloring, cuts, and keratin treatments my hair has never been healthier. I have seen major growth and i attribute it to Kristen's knowledge when she has done my hair. She has always been very sweet and professional. read more

If you're looking for a place to hook your lashes up and give them life, this is the place to go! I am actually a client of Kristen's when she worked at a different lash studio and then she switched to exclusively working at this studio. Although it's a little farther from my house, I am willing to make the drive because she is literally the only person I trust with my lashes! I'll seriously follow her anywhere haha If you tell her what kind of look you're going for, whether it's natural or more dramatic, she'll know exactly what to do and give you the look you're striving for. She is very patient and careful with applying each lash to make sure they're comfortable for you. Seriously every time I leave, I feel like a new person! Try this place out, you won't regret it (: read more

Rena really hooked my Goddess locs up. I've received a lot of compliments. She is so sweet and very professional . The ladies in the studio had such a great vibe!!! I really enjoyed my time sitting in the chair. Luv ya girls... read more

Super cute studio and really friendly staff. Got my eyelashes done by Kristen and I can't be any more happier! She knows exactly what she's doing and it comes out gorgeous every time! First time I did a natural look with mink lashes, then a couple weeks later for my fill I decided to go bold with volume lashes. Seriously love them so much. Highly recommend this place! I will definitely be back. read more

Kristen is amazing! Extremely talented and professional. I love coming to her for my eyelashes every time I leave I am extremely happy with her work! read more

This place shows great hospitality. Extremely clean and professional. I had my eyelashes done by Kristen and the look amazing.

Communication was poor. Calendaring an appt was basically impossible. All appointments made were canceled on me after multiple excuses.

I usually get my hair done by Kristen and she ALWAYS does an amazing job but today I switched things up a little and got my lashes done instead. It was my first time and I couldn't have been more satisfied! My lashes look so full, and natural! I'm definitely going to continue coming back! read more

My experience is not my own but one of my friend. Also, the sad part about it is that I never stepped foot in the salon. The salon looks beautiful and may be reputable. Their traveling stylist Rena however comes to Florida and uses the salon's name to promote her business. However she is not a licensed stylist. She has a license in braiding that apparently isn't even valid in the state of California. She showed up 3 hours late to my friend's previously planned appointment, not finishing until 3 in the morning. My friend called her a few hours later to let her know she was not pleased with the hairstyle due to crooked parts, some locs being significantly larger than others and there only being about 50 locs. Rena admitted that she had worked on three heads before my friend and she overbooked that day and stated she would be willing to fix the style. She gave my friend the option of Wednesday or Friday and my friend chose Friday telling her she was off by 5:30PM. They were supposed to meet up around 6:00PM and my friend text her at 5:00PM to solidify. No response. Not a response until 7:10PM and she was again working on the hair of someone else. By this time my friend was frustrated and told her she didn't feel like Rena was being professional and Rena offered to refund the entire amount for the style. The next text then stated she could be there the next morning at 7:00AM or she could refund her money. When my friend stated the refund was the best option because she didn't want to give it another try, Rena decided to make up this policy on the spot stating she had to get a picture of the locs out of her head before she could get the refund. A policy that was never previously discussed, put in writing, etc. She is using the YSSL Hair Studio on all her social media so they were contacted and we were told since she's not an actual stylist it was nothing they could do. If she's allowed to reporesent this brand and continue to work in the salon while being unprofessional and doing subpar work, they too must be held responsible for the lack of action. read more

I've been going to Kristen for years...She is always on time and always has me leaving the salon gone with the wind Fabulous...I have recommended her to numerous family, friends and coworkers and we all are always satisfied...Her professionalism and certified styles make her stand out amongst other stylist!!!
