    Healthy, glossy, natural looking hair. Thanx Matt!!
    Cat M.

    Matt is very professional and knows a lot about color. In my very first visit I noticed he cares about preserving the integrity of your hair besides achieving the best result. He won't let you go blonder when he knows your hair can't take it. I really appreciate his honesty. He'll be able to place the colour to suit your skin tone so it''ll really light up your features. Not only he made my damaged hair look balayage awesome, he also did the best color correction. And he always gives me good advise on how to take good care of my hair, and what are the best products to buy. He's not only a sweetheart, but also one of the best colorist I've ever went to. He knows how to create soft, glossy, natural looks. I won't let anyone but Matt touch my -now sun kissed, healthy- tresses anymore. Whatever shade you're searching for: Matt is the man. Healthy hair is attractive hair and that''ll never go out of fashion.

    Matt did this in one sitting and it looks spectacular in the sunlight.

    Matt did an incredible job on my hair. In a single sitting, he took me from chestnut brown to dirty blonde. My color is natural looking and beautiful. I can't stop looking at my hair! He's warm and friendly. His assistants were amazing. I felt pampered and welcome the entire five hours I was in his chair. You will not regret going to Matt. He's the best, just look at his Instagram!

    What would I do without Matt. Seriously, he's the best! I don't mean to state the obvious, but he definitely knows what he's doing and he's just incredible. I seriously have horse hair and he just works his magic on it. I've seen him twice and I just told him I wanted my hair lighter and showed a pic or two and he gave me exactly what I wanted, with his own take of course and with his technique but I wouldn't have it any other way. He's so sweet and reaches out to see how I'm doing and if I need to come in with a toner, etc. he also gives great recommendations if you just reach out for any hair care suggestions etc. Don't think twice & just do your lovely self a favor & make an appointment with him now.

    Gorgeous highlights/balayage by Matt! LOVE

    Love love love my hair!!! Matt did an amazing job and made it look wonderful without me having to really go into detail. I decided to go to Ramirez Tran after seeing so many beautiful ombré and balayage before and after photos. I read great reviews about Matt and am SO glad he did my hair! On top of it all, he's super sweet and easy to talk to... Which is important considering we ladies spend a few hours in the hair chair! Go to Matt, you won't regret your decision!

    The left is me after a horrible experience with an evil stylist. The right is the miracle performed by Matt!

    I'm not sure what can be said about Matt that hasn't already been said! He is nothing short of a hair styling GOD. I first saw Matt after a horrendous encounter at another salon left me with orange streaks in my hair. I was frantic and called Matt after seeing his amazing work on Instagram. Not only did he reverse the atrocious damage done by my previous stylist, but he made my hair a million times better. He is seriously an artist and takes his time analyzing and planning every piece of your hair. The result is absolute perfection! He is insanely talented-- see my pictures for a taste of how talented he is! He can practically read your mind and turn a vague "I thought I might want to go a little lighter or something?" into the perfect hair color that you've always wanted but couldn't put into words. It looks unbelievably natural and he colors it in a way where your roots are virtually nonexistent for months. He makes sure your natural color blends perfectly with your new highlights and creates the perfect amount of contrast and dimensions in your hair. It's actually kind of mind blowing how precise and beautiful his work is! I have COMPLETE peace of mind when I walk in to see Matt, unlike the feeling I've gotten when I sat down in other stylists' chairs. I've happily referred my friends to him, knowing they will leave 110% happy with the results. It doesn't hurt that his salon is absolutely stunning and luxurious. I honestly don't think I can ever go to another stylist after seeing Matt. Ever. If you're on the fence about booking an appointment, you should do it RIGHT now because he will work wonders on your hair and you will never want to go anywhere else :)

    Matt is an artist! I know when he touches my hair I will leave the salon loving it. He is meticulous and he and his staff put out a great vibe. I love the whole experience and most of all my hair! Thank you Matt!

    Matt and violet made all my hair dreams come true and more! Matt listened to what I wanted and made it happen. Not only is he great energy to be around he really puts his all into your hair and goes above and beyond to make sure it's perfect. I've never been more happy with the color of my hair and I owe all of my thanks to Matt. I will only go to him for my hair color from now on.

    I have been going to Chelsi for a few years now for partial/full balayage, toner, a quick gloss,…read morelayering, and trims. She is incredibly talented and capable, you can show her one pic and she will either make recommendations based on your hair, or gets straight to it and makes it happen. I've seen her 7 times now and have never left an appointment feeling anything but confident and stoked about my hair. No joke, last month I got a full balayage and some face framing layers, and within an hour of leaving my appointment, running errands, three strangers stopped me and asked me where I went for my hair/commented on how amazing it looked. Finally, you will not find someone with more flexibility on timing - she is beyond accommodating with her hours which is amazing for people with crazy work schedules. Do you have a stylist that will meet you at the crack of dawn for a quick, 5:30AM partial balayage before you go to work? I doubt it. Could not recommend Balayage by Linet (and Chelsi) more!

    I called to make an appointment with Soonie for a cut and blowout. Grace, the manager, made the…read moreappointment and informed me that all women's cuts come with a blowout so in the future I could simply request a women's cut. This information was confirmed when I called to reschedule I mentioned I wanted to reschedule my cut and blowout and Grace repeated that a blowout automatically comes with a women's cut. On the day of my appointment I arrived 20 minutes early but Soonie was 20 minutes late. While I waited I saw women leaving the salon with sleek, straight hair and I was excited to begin my appointment. When my appointment started I explained to Soonie how I wanted my hair cut and then asked for her input. I always do this because I value a professional's perspective and even when I don't ask stylists typically offer guidance. When I told her she was the professional and asked for her opinion she replied that I'd had enough haircuts to know what I wanted so she had nothing to add. When she began cutting my hair I told her I wanted a center part. My part was crooked from the wash and my hair hadn't been brushed afterward. She said it didn't matter and left it crooked while cutting. Stylists always ask where I part my hair and use a comb to part it properly but she did not. When she finished the cut she took out a diffuser and began diffusing my curls. I told her I wanted a blowout. She insisted I keep my hair curly and I explained that I specifically booked a blowout with my cut. She then put me under a dryer and told me my hair needed to be 80% dry before a blowout. I told her I wanted sleek, straight hair and she said it would be. After about five minutes she came back and proceeded to fully air dry my curls with a blow dryer before attempting the blowout. She never used a round brush she simply pulled my hair taut. I could see the frizz immediately and she could tell I was upset. At one point she told me she "could feel me sweating." She didn't section my hair and it was going in every direction. I tried helping by holding sections but she said it was okay even though it clearly wasn't. She continued making a bigger mess of my hair as she "worked." I watched women with beautiful, sleek hair walk past me in the mirror while my hair looked like a tangled messy bird's nest. My hair came out frizzy with waves and dents so she took out a flat iron and began flat ironing the frizzy hair and causing constant snagging. I've never had a stylist flat iron my hair after a blowout and I was surprised again. Her unrelenting conversation was about how I must be very good at blowing out my own hair, how I needed a trim every month and a half and then she drifted into awkward stories about when she first started working. All the while my hair looked nothing like a professional blowout certainly nothing like Cristophe of Beverly Hills. It felt more like a child playing hairdressing. I was stunned when she said she was done. I told her I would need to go over my hair at home because this was not how my hair should look. She simply said, "Okay, good." I was shocked she was comfortable letting me leave like that. This wasn't my first haircut or my first blowout. I know how a proper result should look. I even watched her give the woman before me a blowout and she took her time with a round brush and used pins. It says a lot when someone can only blow out straight hair. For Cristophe's reputation this was unacceptable. For someone advertised as a "master stylist," Soonie's work was atrocious. Her work looked like that of a beginner and I felt like she was practicing on me. I was deeply disappointed by her unprofessionalism and her bizarre uncomfortable conversations. She said she likes cutting but doesn't like blow drying. I wish that if she at least liked cutting she would've done an exceptional job there but the cut itself is ridiculously basic and she missed a section leaving the front uneven on one side. I go several months between cuts but not with this one. I need another cut immediately. I'm used to leaving salons with glamorous, bouncy, flowing hair that turns heads. Instead my cut with Soonie is heavy, has no movement and looks like a wig. She knew this would happen and should have said something when I asked for her input and even if I hadn't asked a professional should offer guidance. I cannot believe I specifically asked for her opinion and she refused. When I went to pay I was charged $200. I was stunned she had the audacity to send me out with frizzy, dented hair and waves at the roots and still charge me $200. I told the person at the front desk that I was very upset and she agreed my hair was messy and unkempt. She gave me the names of three other stylists who she said were good at blowouts and added that they were master stylists. I told her that according to the website so is Soonie.

I consigned a purse with the owner Ronnie in April 2024. It sold within a few days for $2,500. I was suppose to be paid 50% of the profit within 60 days of the sale. So $1,250. It is no April 2025 (a year later) and I have only been paid $100 of the $1,250 owed to me. If anyone else is in a similar situation please feel free to reach out to me in my DM's.
