I asked for a honey beige/bronde from my virgin Asian hair and oh my god she delivered. We spent about 5 hours on my hair. She was extremely detail oriented and time flew by so quick with her it did NOT feel like 5 hours at all! So grateful I found such a nice salon so close to my house!!

I have very long, thick hair, and Dustin always follows exactly how much I want taken off while adding the perfect amount of layers. I don't style my hair much, so it's easy for layers to look choppy, but with Dustin my hair always looks fuller, healthier, and has so much movement even without styling! He also has a great personality, and I always enjoy chatting with him during appointments. I've followed him from another salon and now drive quite a distance to see him, and it is so worth it! Highly recommend Dustin! (Attached is a photo after a recent haircut with him at his previous salon!)

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!

From the complimentary drink to the inviting conversation and my shampoo and massage ‍ was relaxing .

Parking is always packed despite my early appointment but I guess it's just because this is the place to spend hours easily.

When I raised my concerns, the stylist blamed the color issue on the fact that I had washed my hair, even though I was never advised not to do so or given any instructions about that beforehand.

For the cost and effort involved, the experience was disappointing, and I would not recommend this service for hair extensions.

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.
