Outstanding Experience - Highly Recommend for Men I walked into Amalya's studio as a skeptical guy who'd spent years in traditional barbershops. What I found completely changed my expectations. Amalya doesn't just cut hair - she understands it. Within minutes of our consultation, she identified exactly what would work with my hair type and lifestyle. The precision and attention to detail throughout the cut showed real mastery of her craft. What impressed me most was her versatility. Whether you have thick, thin, curly, or straight hair, she knows the techniques that will make it look its best. The result? A cut that not only looked fantastic leaving the studio but continued to look great for weeks. For men who think salons aren't for them - I was you. Amalya's expertise, professionalism, and genuine passion for her work made me a convert. This is where I'm getting my hair cut from now on. read more

The BEST ! She is a colorist- gets it just right, time after time. Precision hair cuts; always wonderful. And she's interesting but doesn't talk your face off. Oftentimes, I read while she works on my hair-she's fine with silence. read more

Amalya Is Pure Magic Amalya is hands down the best hairdresser I've ever been to. She has that rare mix of real talent, artistry, and genuine care that makes every visit feel special. From the moment you sit in her chair, she makes you feel completely at ease. She listens, understands your style, and somehow always creates exactly what you were hoping for (and usually even better). Her cuts grow out beautifully, her color work is stunning, and she just knows how to make your hair look healthy, natural, and effortless. Beyond her skills, Amalya has such a warm, calming energy. It's like catching up with a friend who happens to make you look amazing every single time. If you've been searching for someone who truly loves what they do and takes pride in making you look and feel your best, Amalya is it. I have been going to her for a few years now, and she's a total gem, and I'm so grateful I found her!! read more

I am blown away by how STUNNING this haircut was. This is by far the best salon experience I have ever had. She greeted me so warmly, washed my hair thoroughly, and listened to exactly what I wanted with my hair. She took so much time and effort to cut with precision. This is my hair with a quick blow dry and no intense styling. I am so excited read more

Very skilled & professional. Extremely knowledgeable about coloring - pleasant & comfortable shop.

I've been getting my hair done by Amalya for almost seven years and I wouldn't go anywhere else. She's a phenomenal colorist and does precision cuts and trims. Plus, she's a lovely person inside and out and really cares about her clients. read more

Amalya has been cutting and coloring my hair for close to 10 years now. I have my hair straightened (Japanese straightening) and I am super careful with the color. Amalya is excellent at what she does. Never once did I wish I cut my hair differently or it didn't look right. I like people who love what they do and are experts at it. And she is one of those people. I will not switch to anyone else. read more

I was looking for a new hair stylist and haven't found one to my liking. So I went on Groupon and discovered Amalya, and I am glad I did. I got the Groupon called and made an appointment. I let Amalya know i am using a Groupon and she was so friendly over the phone when I booked my appointment. Some places treat you differently when you mention "Groupon" Amalya did not. She understood my past experiences with paying full price on a new hair stylist only to leave disappointed. I came into my appointment and was greeted with a warm smile from Amalya. We got to talking about how I want my hair cut and other things, Our conversation just flowed, which is important to me. I am trusting her with my hair. She gave me good honest advice about my hair. Which is very nice considering she could have up talked me into coloring my hair to make more money, but she didn't. She said I shouldn't color my hair since it is so healthy and I never colored my hair before. Her honestly and her work she did on my hair is what made me decide that she will be my new hair stylist. read more

Amalya was so wonderful and kind. I bought a groupon for a cut style and condition and used it last Friday. I showed her a photo of my friend who's style I loved, and not only did Amalya cut my hair perfectly, she showed me how to style it and make use of my new layers. I would definitely consider going to see her in the future when I need a new cut! read more

Beautiful place, clean, comfortable, lots of parking...I first came to Amalya's with a Groupon, a couple of months ago...I came back! I loved what she did for my hair the first time! She is such a lovely person, and really cares about what you want done to your hair and is professionally knowledgeable to advise you, on cut, color, products...she goes for what is most healthy for you, with your approval, of corse. So I waited until I got home to take pictures of my fabulous new hair... she has a beautiful mirror in her shop I should of done it there! Next time! Oh, and did I mention, I called her just yesterday and I was lucky and got in late this afternoon... how sweet! Also, if you ever have special or extenuating circumstances, she will accommodate you! Just ask...home visit, hospital...if you can't get into the shop. I can't help it, when I see someone that's good and when you are self employed word of Yelp is the best review!!! I love my hair Amalya's... see you soon! read more

Probably the worst haircut of my life after trying to let it grow out for a few months seeing if it would look better. She thinned out my naturally thick hair way too much. She did this twist cutting technique a lot which I think made the top layers of my hair way too short, choppy and heavy. It didn't blend well with my bottom layer of hair which is so thinned and visibly a lot longer. So now my bottom and top layers don't look cohesive. Very disappointed read more

One of the most positive salon experiences I've ever had- highly recommend! Amalya is not only an extremely talented hair stylist, she was also super friendly which I appreciated very much. She went above and beyond for no extra charge. I will definitely be back for more! read more

When I first met her we did a blonde to my hair from dark brown to a light blonde and it was so beautiful then months later we did a keratin treatment on my hair and it was beautiful! Thank you for always making me feel beautiful! read more

Amalya is AMAZING. I just moved to Long Beach and had no idea where to go for a cut and color, so I turned to Yelp for it's reviews, and it led me straight to her. She is warm and welcoming, and she definitely know what she is doing when it comes to hair. I was unsure of the exact dark brown I wanted, and she whipped up a gorgeous warm cinnamon and dark brown for me. The cut she gave me is elegant, yet simple. I LOVE IT. She even gave me some tips for washing my hair to help it keep the natural oils to help it stay healthy and strong. I will definitely be returning to her for my trims and color touch ups. You will not regret your decision to go get styled by Amalya! read more

I love Amalya!!!! I moved to Long Beach 2 years ago and on my street there are so many hairstyles, but when I pass Amalya studio I knew she was the perfect person to color, highlight and cut my hair. If anyone knows about Latina hair she does. I am very picky person and I trust her with my hair for sure. read more

Loved getting my hair highlighted and cut by amalya! My hair had been bleached all over and she beautifully blended the harsh roots with the rest of the hair. It looks awesome and super healthy, I recommend her to everyone and especially blondes! Here are some before & after photos read more

Amalya did a great job! She did exactly what I wanted. It's not too often you show a hair dresser a photo of what you want, and they get it exactly right. The salon is just a fun little bike ride away from my house, and she's excellently priced, unlike a lot of other salons in SoCal.. Will return! read more
