WHAT I ASKED
Tiffany B.

What I asked vs what I got. I specifically told the lady I wanted to keep the length tht I already had but she kept cutting my hair. I wanted to get this hair cut so I can get that volume effect, but hair still looks flat. My hair looks nothing like the picture I showed her. I went to this salon because it had good reviews, but I paid $80 for a haircut I don't like. I'm never coming back to this place

Love this place!! I have been going here for years and Lindsay and Lanna are AMAZING!! It's a one stop shop for all of your beautification needs. Hair, nails and pedicures!!

I have been a client of Vicky Diaz for about 10 years. She is very skilled in color and highlights. She was the first hair dresser I found that could give me blond highlights that did not damage my hair or turn it orange. Vicky creates amazing haircuts. Very skilled and talented. She listens to what I want and ensures my haircut is what I am asking for. My husband is a long time client of Vicky's and frequently heard me complaining about my hair and suggested I try his hair stylist Vicky Diaz. Some of the best advice he has given me. I have been seeing Vicky ever since. I receive many compliments on my hair style Vicky is a wonderful hair stylist for both men and women.

Toshiro is not just a hair stylist, he is an ARTIST and a MASTER of his profession! His meticulous attention to detail is second to none--particularly when it comes to my requests for creativity in coloring. I went to see him today and asked for a mix of purple and pink, as well as my usual blond. Once again, I LOVE what he did! I've been with him for seven years now and he has never once disappointed me! The time I spend at the salon is "me time" and I can just sit back, catch up on my reading, and relax. The salon itself is very bright and always has a beautiful floral arrangement that further adds to the serenity of the total experience.

Thank you Mayu San for this perfect ombré! Love it!

Mayu san is an amazing talent! I went in with an old ombré that needed a major fix up and she did more than just fixing. She patiently listened to all my demands and delivered exactly what I asked for. My ombré is blended in naturally and color is exactly what I wanted. Having thick black Asian hair, I know this is not an easy task so much respect to Mayu san for pulling this color off for me. Highly recommend! Clean, cute hair salon tucked away in suburb area of Torrance is a true diamond in mud. Love it!!

First time trying this salon. As soon as I walked in I was greeted with a smile, and friendly…read moreservice . I felt very welcomed. The place was full of beautiful women getting their hair done. There was good music playing in the background. Talk about vibes lol. I absolutely intend to go back. Prices are very reasonable! Great service!

I had high hopes for this establishment and I really wanted to like this place. I was so excited…read morefor my appointment. Unfortunately not only was the customer service horrible but so was the service provided to me. While expressing what I wanted to get done I confirmed with Chohee if it was achievable. She said absolutely! I was thrilled and excited and said lets do it, we agreed on a price $400. I thought it was a bit pricey but said I deserve to treat myself. I was sitting in that chair for 4 hours. My phone died. I was hungry and thirsty. No one asked if i needed anything or check up on me. She was attending other clients and overall I felt neglected throughout the whole process. Despite the poor treatment and feeling of abandonment, i still had high hope that I would receive my new look and it would all be worth it. I stayed calm, kind and patient. She then revealed the final result and it was not what I had asked for. I pulled up the reference picture and said to her "I was going more for this look, is this it or were you still working on my hair?" No attitude, no negative tone, just a question. She suddenly got defensive and said she did not appreciate me saying "is this it?" And that she felt insulted. I apologized to her and said "that wasn't my intention it's just that I've been sitting here for hours expecting a different result that we discussed and agreed to." She said if I wanted that look then it would be another $300 and probably another 2 hours. I was shocked. She changed the price from what we discussed and at this point I felt like she was trying to take advantage of me. As Chohee was finishing the final steps of my appointment she was extremely cold, and unpleasant to be around. I felt VERY uncomfortable. I felt like i was beings reasonable and accommodating the whole appointment and to be treated so poorly really disappointed me and made me feel so small. Definitely won't be coming back here.

I brought in example/ inspo photo (just simple long layer cut) and asked for face framing pieces and showed it to the stylist, but the stylist barely looked at the photo. My hair looked nothing like the photo I showed, and it was cut much shorter than expected and the end feels choppy. I gave it more chance by washing and drying the day after, but it's overall disappointing. I had mentioned a few times I want to keep it longer like the picture I showed, but it wasn't heard. I couldn't say much more once the stylist made the very first snip and had to go along with it. It became even shorter by the end. I wish the stylist had been more proactive about the consultation before proceeding with the cut. I got an impression that the stylist wanted to get through the hair cut session as a quickly as possible. This was for upcoming graduation, so it is more disappointing. Again, very nice lady. Not too sure if it's just one time issue!

Nori is one of the finest stylists you can frequent…read more He has a meticulous attention to details and I super appreciate his precision cuts. He services his scissors in Japan semi-annually just to maintain his equipments in great condition. This helps prevent split ends and other hair troubles I used to frequently encounter. Nori also uses a scale to formulate the hair colors. You can feel assured you won't come out of the salon looking funky. Appointments can be made online directly from his website, or by emailing/texting him directly. He is very flexible and accommodating with appointments. Lastly, parking can be found adjacent from the salon building structure. You can also charge your EV for free too. Amex accepted and drinks and clean environment offered. Can't recommend Nori enough.

I went in to get a perm and cut…read more The vibe was very nice. Very respectful. His space was very clean and tidy with what seems, state of the art tools. I have had fine hair all my life, but even still my hair has always taken well to perms, always. Even the last one over a year ago. The only complaint I had was the use of larger rods which made my hair more wavy curl than curly. Nori had said that my hair wouldn't take well to a perm, but because I know my hair's history, I asked him do it anyway and he agreed to do it. First he used a more gentle solution because of my pervious perm over a year ago (did not ask if I wanted that), and I didn't know until he was already in the process of using it on my hair... my hair needs the stronger solution. Second he did a loose curl wrap instead of a tight curl wrap. With fine hair (or at least my hair) it needs to be curled up against the scalp. I think he did this because it was a hot treatment perm (which I never had before) vs a cold treatment perm. He didn't give an option. So the perm came out ok on the bottom because it already had the previous perm that was there from a year ago. But the top part of my hair had virtually no difference. If you have fine hair and looking to get a perm, I would not recommend Nori. I'm sure he does really well with all other hair services. To his credit, the perm itself, aside from the lack of curl, was a healthy perm (did not harm my hair) and he did give a very nice cut prior to the perm process. I think if he would have explained his treatment process and how it differed from what I had previously experienced, that may have helped my decision to go elsewhere, before wasting over $200 I had taken a year 1/2 to save. Again I think he probably does really well with the other services he provides. I just think for women (or men) with fine hair, you may want to think twice if you're looking to get a perm.

The last 2 or 3 times there were a few things I didn't like (toner left my hair too silver or bleach wouldn't fully grasp the roots of my hair) so I would go back and he would fix them. I had an appt early July and he mentioned he doesn't do blonde hair anymore because his back hurts and always complained about me having soooo much hair. I texted him 2 days after washing my hair, he didn't reply. I waited 1 week after texting him the first time with no reply, then I texted him a third time and no reply. I feel like I had a good relationship with him, I could let him know what I didn't like and he would fix it. I did pay over $400 for my hair color ONLY, no haircut. He could've fixed it, then told me, I'm not doing your hair anymore or I'm not doing any blonde hair anymore. I'm so disappointed. So unprofessional not to message back.
