(Review based on 4.5 stars) Located across from The Peach Cafe with it's own parking lot. It is the yellow looking house in case you are on the look for it on Colorado. I came by this past Friday a little before 11 am for my hair appointment. When I came in, I was not initially greeted or acknowledged. The lady whom was talking and working on her client's hair saw me but turned away. She kept looking at me but never said anything (deducted 0.5 star for that). But another woman in the front greeted me and offered me something to drink. Since I came early for my 11 am appointment, I just sat at a chair in the front and waited for Isabel. When she arrived (before my appointment time), she greeted me and took me to the back where her chair was. She then told me that I could put my purse down and lead me to the sink to wash my hair. It was rather relaxing as my hair was being washed. She asked if the temperature of the water was okay with me and continued. Then when she was done, she walked me back to her chair. She asked me what I would like for my hair cut. I told her that I wanted to cut my hair for charity (Beautiful Lengths, http://pantene.com/en-us/experience-main-section2/beautiful-lengths for more information) and that the organization I donate it to (I do this every year) request that the hair is dry and tied in a pony tail, banded with a hair tie from the top and bottom to secure it. Isabel made sure that my hair was fully dry before she tied it up and cut it. She explained that with a cut from the pony tail, it would leave my hair uneven. She made sure that my hair was even all around after cutting it. Last September when I got my hair cut (at another salon), the person who cut my hair did not take the same care as Isabel and so my hair was a little uneven (did not find this out until I came home). Isabel asked me what is the minimum length that the organization I am donating to requires. I told her 8 inches and so she measured my hair before cutting to let me know how short it will be and afterwards, measured it again to show me that it is exactly at 8 inches. During my time, Isabel was a delight to talk to while she styled my hair. She was friendly and I enjoyed learning about her family and sharing about mine. I truly appreciate the time and detail that Isabel paid to my hair during this visit that I tipped her rather higher than most hair salons that I have gone to in the past. I will definitely go back to Isabel in the future for my next hair cut (which will most likely for charity again). read more

Awesome owner hairdresser, stylist. I've been seeing Michelle for many years.. She is a very knowledgeable color expert. Stop by when you set up your appointment. Highly recommend her services. Thank you for your fantastic services I've received. read more

Michelle is AWESOME!!! She has been cutting and styling my hair for several years now, and I am totally hooked. Super talented stylist combined with a fun and friendly personality! read more

Sara LaPlaca is a wonderful stylist! I was very happy with my previous hairstylist, but having to pay over $100 just for a haircut alone didn't always sit well with me. So I decided to make an appointment with Sara - and I'm so glad I did. She did a fantastic job on my hair and is now my go-to gal! Sara listens to exactly what you want and is on point with her delivery. On top of that, she's very accommodating, super friendly and her prices are so reasonable! If you haven't made an appointment with Sara yet, you should. You won't regret it! read more

I have known Emily forever and followed her from her previous salon to Ashton Joseph Salon. Although it is a long drive for me there is no one else I would trust with my hair. She is a color GENIUS. She is as conscientious with my hair as she would be with her own. She really wants to please and will not let anyone leave less than 100% happy. She really wants every woman to feel beautiful. She was my stylist before I lost all my hair to chemo therapy last year and has worked with me as my hair has grown back and changed in color and texture. Her sense of style and current trends has made my transition from long hair to no hair to new hair less traumatic. I trust her completely. On another note the salon itself is very chic and comfortable. All the stylists seem to get along and are extremely friendly which makes the entire experience worth the drive read more

Had a lovely experience here today. Was able to grab a walk-in appointment by chance, which was super helpful for my schedule. Michelle, the owner quoted me $65 for a wash, deep conditioning (with check-in!) cut and blow out which is a stellar price. I was amazed at the care in which Michelle treated me. I've never had a stylist spend so much time getting to know me/my hair and finding out exactly what I was looking for in a cut. The end result is fabulous, and she was able to fixed a botched prior cut, which is not an easy feat, especially with short hair. The studio itself is adorable, well-appointed and cozy. They offer you coffee and tea to help you feel at right at home. I think I found my new stylist! read more

I have loved going to Michelle. She suggested a balayage for me when my hair was short for a wedding I was in. I hate getting my hair cut (and colored), and she said it would grow out well until I was ready to go for another cut. It was beautiful! She was kind, a great listener, and very clearly very experienced. After some less-than-great haircuts elsewhere, Michelle has become my go-to woman. Whenever I have a semi-crazy idea for a change, she talks me through what would look good for my complexion and what will grow out well since I don't cut my hair often. read more

I'm happy to say I finally found THE hair stylist! I recently moved and came across Michelle on yelp. I'm glad I listened to the reviews and booked an appointment. She is great with everything but is just amazing with color and the keratin treatment! I know people can be skeptical with reviews that speak too highly of the service (because that's how I am) but Michelle has changed my way of thinking! She is up to date with all the trends and colors and is very knowledgeable of what works best and flatters each person while also listening to what you want. I've done haircut, color, baylage highlights, ombre, keratin treatment and color gloss. I'm so happy with the results that both my mom & sister now go to Michelle. You will lose a chance to great hair if you pass up the opportunity make an appointment with Michelle! read more

Michelle is awesome!!! I love that I can sit back & relax in the chair, and let her do whatever she wants because I trust her work and know she is going to do a fantastic job. She is professional, so good at both hair and makeup, knows the latest trends, listens to what you want, is patient, accommodating, and such a sweet person. read more

I found Michelle on yelp when I was searching for somebody who does keratin treatments. (I love the Keratin Complex). She has a great first time deal on yelp and she does a great job. Her prices are always reasonable which means I can go more frequently or get more done. I am a blond and she does a great job on my highlights. The salon is professional, clean and stylish. Although I wish the owner would spring for satellite radio, I hate listening to commercials. But she said she would talk to her about putting on an iPod. Overall I am very happy I found somebody good and reliable and reasonably priced. read more

I had seen the ombre style and I wanted it so bad. And I was so scared because I had been looking and looking for so many years for the ONE hair stylist. Many upset moments and disappointments at many salons...But!!! One day I came in contact and connection with Michelle and I was scared but I had the courage to let her transform my hair. I decided to do the ombre style. It was so natural and beautiful I couldn't believe my hair could look as wonderful as it does now. She was so understand and I told her exactly what I wanted and what I didn't want. The price was extremely reasonable for my hair length and style I wanted. Look no more darlings she is the real deal. And believe me you will not be disappointed. read more

If I could leave 10 stars I would! I LOVE Michelle. I basically let her do whatever she thinks is best every time I sit in her chair, because I trust her and I know that I will walk out looking and feeling amazing. In addition, her prices are reasonable, she's friendly yet professional and the salon is always clean. read more

An adorable convenient little full service hair salon. My secret treasure is Emily Faulk. I found her when I was looking for a skilled colorist. She was highly recommended by her peers and she never disappoints. She is young and creative, friendly and personable. Reminds me of hanging out with a friend who really cares about you. Her schedule has always been flexible and she takes her time to get things right. I never feel rushed. Yes she is a treasure. read more

I LOVE MY GIRL IZZY!!!!! I have long hair and most stylists do a half ass job because they just can't handle the sheer volume of my maine!

I am new from South Florida & was desperate to find a hair dresser. I was so lucky to find Michelle. She is an expert at what she does--a true professional! She exceeded my expectations! I'm set! Thanks Michelle! read more

I love Michelle's work! Michelle did my hair and makeup for my big day, she did exactly what I envisioned for my wedding. I would not have chosen anyone else but her. read more

My hair stylist for 10 years or so is here now. Cute little yellow house in downtown Monrovia. Close to where I live so it's convenient. Go see Sara La Placa for great hair! read more

Isabel was kind enough to schedule in a last minute appointment. She did a great job and was super friendly and know kind. Will go back.

I live in Texas now, but grew up in the Pasadena area and went to Isabel for a blowout before my baby shower. She did an amazing job blowing out my hair! That's saying a lot too because I'm very picky. I have long and very thick hair and some stylists have said it's a bit intimidating to work with. I was so happy to feel so pretty going to my shower. I'll definitely go back to her next time I'm in town! read more

I have been so blessed to have Michelle work with me in my salon for the past 4 years! She arrived the day we opened our doors nearly 4 years ago and brought with her a great talent and passion for hair. Her work is always stellar. She is a true professional in an industry where professionalism is often absent. She is amazing at everything she does: Great hair, inspirational color, and stunning makeup. Everyone here at Shag'd Hair Studio misses her dearly! Thank you for inspiring so many and so much of what we do here! Best of luck Michelly. XOXO, Your boss, your friend, Niko read more

Love love love this salon and Michelle !!! She always listen to what I want and delivers. I grow my hair... I cut my hair off.... I'm always wanting something new , fun and sexy and she just always nails it. My blonde color is amazing - I LOVE the way she colors my hair!! Beyond her skills as a hair stylist she is a consummate professional and always friendly, kind and accommodating. My schedule as a nurse can be a challenge but she has always fit me in and worked around my schedule. I have gone to salons where you wonder if they actually want your business and you feel judged. Never with Michelle!! She makes her clients feel so comfortable. read more

I have known Michelle forever and she's such an awesome stylist! I have done everything from pink to blue highlights and they always look stylish. Plus she works so fast and so well. I'm always treated with cookies and drinks when I walk in too. I love this cute location. read more

My hair is so crazy all the time and it's so hard for me to find someone that does a good job with it. Emily has only cut my hair twice but I love going to her! She's super sweet and takes pride in her work! Not only does she do a great job cutting and styling my hair, she did an amazing job on my best friends highlights today! read more

I've been depressed since my amazing Michelle relocated back to CA. Michelle had been doing my hair for about 3 years! She was able to manage this curly mane and leave it silky, smooth and fabulous. I can't say that for many places I go to!! She always listens to my wants and goes above and beyond! read more

I highly recommend Izzy as a hair stylist. She does not rush you and does a great job. If you go to this salon I would ask for her as she seems to truly love her job and it shows in the results. A++++ read more

Buyer Beware! Purchased a Groupon for this salon and left three messages over a weeks time trying to book an appointment. No response. They never answered the phone. Got my money back from Groupon. read more

Out of all the hair stylists I've ever worked with, Michelle has by far been the most talented. She did an outstanding job when she did hair and makeup for a band that I had to photograph for the magazine I work for, Relevant. Sometimes you get those stylists that don't listen to what you want very well, but Michelle listens and always gets the look you love! read more

Cute, stylish salon. I started coming here when my hair stylist, Ingrid, set up shop. She is the friendliest and most organized stylist I've ever known. I can always trust that she'll color and cut my hair based on my preferences. And she sends me a reminder before every appointment. If you see a tall blonde smiling and chatting with a client, that's her. read more
