Got a haircut with Kevin Yoo. I've known him for a while and decided to give his services a shot after seeing some of his great work promoting "Aldo Alan" on his Instagram feed. He was attentive, personable, and charged a fair price. Of course, the quality of the cut was a 10/10! He's definitely earned my business and I will recommend him to everyone I know. read more

Aldo Alan - Low fade - Hair Salons Near Me - Irvine, California

The owner is really nice, easy to talk to, and experienced. I missed an appointment, and he was very gracious about rescheduling with no drama, which I appreciated. They have great artistic judgment. I have a cool complexion, and he astutely went with a cooler, ashier toner that suited my complexion, age and face proportions. read more

Changed up my sisters hair style ! People were so kind. It was very comfortable. They did an amazing job on my little sissy !

I rarely write Yelp reviews, but I had to share this amazing find. I'm incredibly loyal when it comes to my hair, so when I find someone I trust, I stick with them. I know my family and I will be going to Aldo for years to come. Before finding Aldo, I was going to a well-known, high-end salon on PCH in Newport Beach. Somewhere along the way, they stopped listening to what I wanted. My hair always looked great when I walked out of the salon, but the moment I washed it myself, I realized the cut just wasn't right. Either it wasn't a good cut, or it simply didn't suit my face. I'm a busy person--I don't have time to spend every morning styling my hair just to make a haircut work. I spent weeks researching salons on Yelp and probably overthought the whole process before finally making an appointment with Aldo. From the moment I walked in, I knew I had found the right person. He's genuine, straightforward, and refreshingly honest--no fluff, no sales pitch, just someone who truly cares about doing great work. The salon has such a fun, welcoming energy, and it's obvious everyone genuinely enjoys working together. Aldo took the time to really listen. We talked at length about what I had liked--and more importantly, what I hadn't liked--about previous cuts. He looked through my inspiration photos, explained what would realistically work with my hair, and was honest about what would and wouldn't flatter my face shape. I appreciated that he didn't just tell me what I wanted to hear. I loved my haircut the day I left the salon, but the real test came after I washed and styled it myself. It still looked fantastic. That's when I knew I'd found my hairstylist. I've since gone back for both cuts and color, and every visit has been just as great. My 14-year-old daughter is also incredibly particular about her hair. She's been to Aldo twice now and has made it very clear that he's the only person she'll let touch her hair. That's about the highest compliment a teenager can give! We're so grateful we found Aldo and the magic he works with our hair. If you're spending hours researching salons like I did, save yourself the time--just book the appointment. I don't think you'll regret it. read more

Love my haircut with layers! Aldo and Demitri did a wonderful job with my wavy coarse hair. Everyone was so friendly as well. I almost never wear my hair down, usually it's tied back or in a bun, so when I went to a work event Friday I got so many compliments. thank you!! read more

Great cut, quick, clean salon, super chill owner and stylist. I will be going back for sure

I recently started going to this location because it's next to my work. They're very flexible for scheduling and the service is outstanding. I got my men's haircut with Dimitri, he's such a cool guy and the haircut was probably the best one I've gotten compared to all my barbers. The people at this location are fun to talk to, feels like family. I recommend if your local in the business area of Irvine. read more

Beyond happy with my experience here. My hair girl moved and I needed a last minute apt and they were so kind to accommodate and get me in last minute. The salon and people there had a kind and welcoming vibe and I loved Aldo! But the real star, is my hair. WOW. WOW. WOW! I've been getting highlights almost a decade and have always been okay with them, but wow I'm obsessed with my hair. He was thoughtful about doing them in a way that helped brighten my face while retaining my original color and made some major improvement with my hair movement. I am glad I went with my gut and trusted him implicitly, because I'm just blown away at how darn good it looks. Go here!!! I will definitely be back!! read more

Such an amazing staff and fun environment! Always love coming here to get my hair right! Aldo is the man!

Had my hair done by Aldo a couple of months ago and I absolutely loved it. As a natural brunette who loves blonde balayage, he took his time to process my hair in a healthy way. Can't wait to go back! read more

Best hair I've had in so long! I asked for a cut & balayage at Aldo Alán & Co. and they took incredible care of my hair. They were experts at giving me recommendations to add back dimension & movement to my hair. They were also so kind and considerate. Highly recommend!! read more

My wife and I recently moved to Irvine a few months ago and this is the first place we went to get our hair cuts. Unfortunately, I can't recommend it, at least for a men's haircut. Dimitri cut my hair and it was probably the worst haircut I've ever had. It was uneven, unflattering, and the back especially looked so out of place with the rest of the cut. I made a call and Aldo answered and said to come in and that they'd fix it, which I thought was great. I assumed Aldo would be fixing the cut, since Dimitri didn't seem to know what he was doing. Wrong. I get there and it's Dimitri 'fixing' it... Didn't fix it much at all. So I felt they handled this all wrong. There wasn't any apology, not even a pretend one. And it seemed so casual to them for me to have to go back and fix it, maybe this happens a lot there? I don't know, but we definitely won't be back, and I would recommend looking elsewhere for your haircuts. read more

Did an amazing job with my bleach out. Highly recommend for all services. These guys are great!

Super great experience, my very first time going in was for a haircut for really overgrown hair and dead ends, Aldo was super helpful and kind, the service was amazing. Vibes were chill and really great, they do their best to welcome you and the atmosphere is so nice! Would love to come back again ! read more

Aldo started doing my hair this past year. I had kept my natural color for about 5 years and decided I wanted to back to lighter. This is my third time seeing him for a touch up. He always do amazing work with color and style and is able to do it without damaging it. Highly recommend to have Aldo do your cut and color! I posted my recent before and after! read more

By some miracle, I found a same day opening for color/root touch up. From the moment I stepped inside, I felt welcomed. During our consultation, I felt at ease. Aldo explained the process along the way and my hair came out better than I had hoped for. It's a fun environment and Aldo is a master at his craft. I'm beyond grateful and so happy with the results. 10/10! read more

The people that work here are incredibly talented - Ruby Tran is a hair artist. the overall vibe of the salon is super fun and they go out of their way to make everyone feel like they are friends read more

I was absolutely amazed by my whole experience here! I came in as a walk-in and got super lucky due to a cancellation just in time. I'm pretty sure Judith was just going to head out since her client cancelled, but she stayed and did my hair anyway and I appreciate that so much. She was so thorough asking me exactly what I'm looking for and what I don't want to see. We both discussed the way my hair had been done before and why I haven't been happy with it. She went above and beyond to ensure that I got what I wanted and I have never left a salon happier. The whole atmosphere was so inviting and the staff were amazing! On top of all that, the cost was lower than I initially expected. Typically when I go to a place with raving reviews like this, I'm expecting to pay upwards of $300/$350 before tip, but they charged $250 and did way better than any of the other places I've been. read more

I've been to a lot of salons over the years, but this one is truly a gem. Aldo has over 20 years of experience and knows color, like really knows it. Every time I leave, my hair looks amazing. The vibe is relaxed, no snooty salon energy or weird pressure. Just super chill, professional, and welcoming. It's the kind of place you can actually enjoy going to. Highly recommend if you want expert color without the attitude. read more

I cannot say enough great things about mine and my daughters experience at this salon!! After many year of looking for a local hairstylist in Irvine and a few okay haircuts I'm so happy to share we've finally found our go to place! Aldo and Demetri are very welcoming and soo talented. My teen has thick wavy hair and was afraid to get a cut that would take some length off, and to see Aldo work his magic was amazing! She was glowing after and can't wait to go back. I booked my own haircut appointment this week and Aldo gave me such beautiful, precise layers. I'm soo happy and excited to go back for some color! Also shout out to Demetri for the relaxing wash and blowout I was so ready to fall asleep in the chair lol plus the music and vibes are so chill. Ps. The Davine hair products they use are fantastic!

I decided to go to a salon and not a barber for this haircut, as I had a big job interview . I have wavy to curly hair, so barber's have a hard time occasionally. Aldo had good reviews so I went to him. Aldo gave me a great haircut and promised that it looked so good, I would get the job. He was not wrong. Just got the job offer today. Thanks Aldo! read more

Aldo is the only person I have trusted with my hair for the last 3 years now. Several of my friends have gone to him as well. I will never forget how for my wedding, he was able to dye my hair so that it exactly matched and blended in with my hair extensions. He's simply the best!!! read more

I had lost my connection with Frank during covid time and after he left the Alkali salon. I have difficult hairs, thick, frizzy, multi colors with stubborn grays and I can tell that Frank is the only hairdresser who knows how to do my hairs. Thank you Frank for the amazing job. I love his exceptional hair cut. He uses the best products and he is honest in his business. Thank you Frank Doyle! read more

Love this salon. Aldo is great and always gets my hair looking gorgeous and healthy. I got balayage done at a different salon earlier this year and after a little while my hair was looking really yellow/brassy and drab. I came in to Aldo's salon and he fixed it up amazingly. Been coming here ever since for all my hair needs. You'll get great hair, great vibes, and fun conversation here. And pricing is very good! Would recommend! read more
