Katie Lounsberry I spent 28 years of my life hating my thin and lifeless hair, but after one appointment with Frank and Judith I walked out OBSESSED with my hair. Im on year two of letting them work their magic and I still walk out of the bathroom each morning talking about how great my hair looks. I love the cut, the color, the style, everything. And I love the people. I highly recommend.

Crystal Estrada Ive been a devoted client of Aldos for years, and what keeps me coming back, besides his remarkable skill in hair color, is his exceptional consultation approach. Aldo isnt just an expert in transforming my hair between light and dark shades; hes also fantastic at recommending what works best for me. His insightful advice and personalized consultations always ensure I leave the salon feeling thrilled with the results.

roya zandieh Disappointing Hair Cut Experience A nightmare by a vindictive ZzzEta I recently visited Zeta and unfortunately, the experience left me feeling extremely disappointed. Without any prior discussion or consultation, the Zeta proceeded to chop off a significant portion of my long hair, resulting in a style that was completely different from what I had explained to her in detail. One of the most fundamental aspects of a successful haircut is effective communication between the hairdresser and the client. I believe it is crucial for a hairdresser to understand the clients desired style, preferences, and overall expectations before making any drastic changes to their hair. However, in this case, that important step was completely overlooked. The lack of consultation was both surprising and frustrating. I would have appreciated a discussion about the desired length, potential styles, and any concerns Zeta may have had regarding my long hair. This would have allowed us to establish a clear vision and ensure that we were on the same page. Zeta didn’t care and her lack of professionalism was clearly displayed. It was an act of malicious conduct. The immediate aftermath of the haircut was a mix of shock and disappointment. Instead of feeling refreshed and satisfied, I left the salon with a hairstyle that didnt suit my face shape or personal style. Moreover, the abrupt change was difficult to adjust to and left me feeling self-conscious about my appearance. While I understand that hair grows back, the emotional impact and the time required to rectify an undesirable haircut cannot be overlooked. I hope that by sharing my experience, it serves as a reminder to clients alike about the importance of clear communication and mutual understanding in achieving the desired outcome. Overall, my experience with Zeta was a nightmare & very disappointing due to the lack of consultation and understanding. I would caution others to ensure thorough communication with ZZZeta this obnoxious so called hairdresser to avoid similar situations and to have realistic expectations about the outcome. I thought One to One owners/mangers have a little decency! But their lack of professionalism was proven to me as well. The salon at first reach out to correct the cut by someone else, but soon after they called and cancelled the appointment because Zzzzzeta the ignorant person that she is apparently got a restraining order against me for complaining about destroying my beautiful hair and me voicing my opinion! Hope zzzzzzeeeeta one to one will soon realize what a mistake it is to let you rent a chair there not good enough to be employed anywhere. I will not give the time of the day Zzzzeta to think about you vindictive ignorant person that you are. I don’t look back I move forward. Please consider your options before going to this salon.

Pink Panda Terrible Experience - Avoid Aynaz at All Costs! I had the worst experience with Aynaz, who claims to be an experienced stylist, but it’s all talk. After a disastrous keratin treatment that didn’t deliver any of the promised results, she made excuses and offered to reapply the product. But instead, she just blow-dried my hair and sent me on my way, completely ignoring the issue. I waited for the manager to step in, but they never bothered to respond either. To make matters worse, Aynaz even threatened another client who knows me, warning her not to expect future help if I left an honest review. Then, she called me directly to say she would refuse service to me moving forward. Her behavior was completely unprofessional, rude, and downright threatening. I paid $550 for this nightmare, and not only did I not get a refund, but she also cut off half my hair when I only asked for a trim. I feel completely scammed and heartbroken over the damage. Avoid Aynaz—she’s inexperienced, dishonest, and a complete scam artist. Don’t waste your time or money on her!

She even helped me save quite a bit of money because I selected the wrong appointment type and she adjusted it which other salons have not done and took advantage. The salons vibe did seem more like a guys barbershop but dont be fooled, they specialize in not just mens hair but do amazing work with womens hair and all the crazy styles we have now! This will definitely be my go to place for all my hair cut and color needs.

Anna Kee I went to this hair salon after many friends had recommended Miho, the hair stylist, to me. I havent hair a hair cut since Jan 2021. I told Miho my lifestyle and asked for her suggestion. She recommended the hair cut style and color for me. When doing my hair, she was very detail and didnt rush through the process. First she did the color. Then she washed off the color. Immediately after that she shampooed and conditioned my hair. Then only she cut my hair. I am very happy with the result. Thank you Miho.

sunflower Ive been here multiple times. The quality is great and comparable to salons in Japan. The price is reasonable and worth it. The stylists (Ive tried 3) all know how to cut Asian hair well. The shampoo feels good too. Plus they have given me advice on how to take care of my hair. Also, I like that the stylists dont force small talk so I can relax in peace! The salon itself is spacious and stylish. I like that its not cramped or loud. Lastly, I like the convenient online booking system. However, usually you have to book weeks in advance.

Jenna Said Came in because a previous salon destroyed my color and I needed it fixed. After 6 hours and $370 (that didn’t include a blow dry) I left with the exact same problem. She said it was my fault because I didn’t ask for the right thing. I repeatedly said it’s orange. The problem is it’s orange. I left and it’s orange. She asked if I wanted the base color done and I said idk I just hate the orange. I also have no idea why it took that long. I’ve had highlights a million times and it’s always around 3 hours. Came home and cried.

Anyways, the service, cuts, and conversation have been nothing but positive experiences for me. Also - the location is convenient being near the 5 and located in a plaza with lots of shopping and restaurants.

Last month, I had a special event to go to for work and at the last minute I decided to reach out to Kim to help style my hair.

She’ll also teach you how to upkeep your hair between visits. She knows getting hair done is expensive and will teach you how to make a DIY toner at home so you don’t have to come to the salon often. She’ll work with your budget and her prices are GREAT for this area. Totally worth it. Go text her!

First $80, then $90, then $110, $120 and yesterday $145 (I have the receipts to back this up). 5 stars for the nice ladies that work there, -10 stars for "whatever I feel" pricing.

Savannah Hernandez I have been going to this salon for a few years now and have realized Sima (owner) does not listen to her customers requests for what they would like to be done to their hair. I went in and explicitly had asked for a trim (no layers or anything). I proceeded to watch Sima cut my hair much shorter than I had asked her to and she said she did it because all that hair was dead. I let that go and again explicitly told her to not cut layers. She ignored my requests and continued to cut uneven layers and my hair much shorter than I had asked for. It is probably going to take me at least 6 months for my hair to grow back to a somewhat acceptable length and I am disappointed that I trusted a salon that completely dismissed customers requests.

I will never go anywhere else and hope that she will always be here. I truly cannot imagine entrusting my hair to anyone else. Everyone here is always so considerate and professional. The entire staff is personable and very kind. The salon itself is clean and organized as well. There is ample parking outside, and the establishment is located in a very safe neighborhood. Every appointment has been a wonderful experience. I am always so thankful!

Hannah I love this place! I requested an appointment on yelp and they got back to me quickly. I asked for a haircut and subtle highlights but wasnt too sure about what I wanted. My stylist did an amazing job! She made my highlights ash brown and subtle, adding nice dimension to my hair. I loved it and it was exactly what I asked for!! She also did an amazing job with my haircut. I think my stylists name was Bella- she was super professional and detailed!

Sara Al Baqui My first outcome of the service at the salon could have been a better experience, hence I’ll review accordingly. That being said, all the stylists sincerely did want to do the best job they could. I went in for a cut and colour with a pic for the first time and it was a FIVE hour process. Since it was my first time colouring I had no idea what to expect. My stylist barely spoke much english - hence I think I finally wasn’t happy with my length and style and it took this long. When the process was taking this long ultimately, many stylists put in all their effort to get me taken care of. Now that I’ve visited this place once, I think I know whom to speak to and better explain in the middle of the process. I’m willing to go back to the same stylist but my recommendation would be to clearly explain to them (translate into a Korean using google if you have to) beforehand instead of expecting them to communicate with you. The facility had a great feel to it since it was clean, organized and professional.

C C Horrible haircut. They first assigned me a stylist that couldn’t really understand English. Then they assigned me a person who can speak mandarin but can’t really do any haircut at all. It looks like he doesn’t know how to cut hair and was extremely slow and often did it wrong making my hair looking terrible. When I showed him the hair bang I want, I can see he tried but his extremely limited skill really made it look terrible and become way too short. I couldn’t believe why this salon would allow people who don’t really know how to cut hair to do one’s styling. Later, another stylist came to save the haircut but the damage was already made to my hair bang and now my hair looks terrible.

khirad This place is absolutely amazing. I cannot say enough about how wonderful Ryan was. Ive never liked getting haircuts or going to a salon, since lve always had bad experiences and felt like I wasnt listened to. This was by far, the best experience at a hairdresser, that lve ever had. Ryan was so talented. I came in for a consultation, showed him what I wanted, and the next day I was in. He managed to color my hair super fast, listened to exactly what I wanted, and gave me the beautiful subtle balayage I asked for. I know it’ll grow out well too, since my friend recommended this place to me, and her hair always looks gorgeous after coming here too. I will absolutely be coming back.

Adam H Incredible experience with Brian. I’m a male with very long hair and have struggled to find a stylist that can properly cut my hair the way I want. Brian is extremely easy to communicate with and very personable. I’ll always be coming back!

Yelena Yermilova I found Brian through one of my acquaintances and my hair needed some good care. Brian was focused, friendly, funny and professional. I stepped out of the salon feeling better than ever! So happy with the color and cut!

Maria Lucy is amazing. I walked in and she gave me a same day appointment. I am very satisfied by my haircut. She taught me how to maintain my pixie cut. The atmosphere was welcoming. The chairs are comfortable. The hair washing station is relaxing. I recommend making an appointment. They also do kid’s cuts! You can bring the whole family.

Jean Gibson Lucy is awesome! I soo needed my pandemic hair fixed. She took her time to ask me questions as it was my 1st time in the salon and she explained how my flat thin hair could be shaped and cut to give me the best look and for the health of my hair. She gave me a few choices to help figure out whatI wanted. She showed me step by step what she was doing asked for my approval and explained how to style it and taught me how to care for it at home. Great service and I love my new cut. It is so much softer. I definitely would recommend making an appt here and I will for sure go back.

ZINAH ELIAS The guy who works there he is professional and very kind person, but the old woman she’s v disrespectful, she makes me feel like she’s doing a favor for me and done my hair for free, more than time i call to schedule an appointment, in the end i say bye have a nice day , she’s just hangs up, i don’t know what’s wrong with her but even if this is her personality she has to be nice and show more respect, we are all humans and no one better than other.

Sunny Ng Ive been getting my hair cut by Lucy for seven years. As someone whos extremely picky about who cuts his hair, I mean it when I say their haircuts are worth the price. Hair Days is attentive, accommodating, and I always walk out looking great. Plus, Lucy gives the best advice.
