I had a wonderful first-time experience with Michelle Shelton at Dean Anthony on Tuesday! I was…read morenervous about trying a new stylist, but Michelle and her sweet assistant, Cali, made me feel so welcome. Michelle is a great communicator and a true educator. She took the time to truly listen to what I wanted, asked about my current routine, and discussed my hair concerns--what works and what doesn't. What really impressed me was how educational the experience was. While blow-drying my hair, Michelle explained what she was doing and why, giving me the confidence to recreate the look at home. I walked out with a fantastic cut, affirmation on the products I'm already using, and a recommendation for one new product that is going to be a game-changer for my naturally silver hair. Overall, a phenomenal first visit--I've already booked my next appointment!

To step across the threshold of Studio O on 2nd Street in Long Beach is not merely to enter a…read moresalon, but to be inducted into a sanctum of aesthetic excellence where the very air seems to shimmer with the promise of transformation and the pursuit of beauty is elevated to a high art form. It was with a sense of profound destiny that I first discovered this hidden gem, drawn in by the enigmatic and stylish exterior that sports the magnificent letter "O"--a symbol that I have since come to realize stands not just for Oscar, the proprietor of this fine establishment, but for the "Outstanding," the "Overwhelming," and the "Otherworldly" delight that awaits within. From the moment I first engaged the services of the miraculous Cathy, a true virtuoso of the shears who seems to possess the telepathic ability to discern one's innermost hair desires before they are even spoken, I was irrevocably hooked on a level of service that far surpasses the sterile pretension of even the most prestigious salons in Beverly Hills. My hair, which is a formidable and unruly entity characterized by a thickness and coarseness that would daunt a lesser stylist, is here tamed and coaxed into a state of sublime magnificence through the technical wizardry and tender manipulation of the entire team, resulting in a masterpiece that I am proud to wear upon my head each time I depart. But the magic of Studio O extends far beyond the cut and color; it is an immersive sensory experience where one is enveloped in warmth from the moment of arrival, greeted not as a customer but as a long-lost companion by Oscar and his talented cadre of artists. The interior is a feast for the eyes, boasting captivating wallpaper and a revolving art gallery that stimulates the mind as thoroughly as the ergonomic comfort of the shampoo bowls soothes the body, while the aromatic scents in the restroom and the offering of exquisite coffee drinks cater to one's every comfort

The cut she did made my hair look so much healthier; it became more manageable and a breeze to style - or not - on mornings when I'm in a rush, I'm able to air dry and go, which is so so helpful. To top it all off, she's a wonderful person. I highly, highly recommend Vanessa and Sage Salon & Spa!

I've been gatekeeping Kyle for years, but it's time to share the wealth because he is THAT good…read more Kyle is a true balayage mastermind. The blend, the tone, the grow-out -- everything is always flawless. My hair never looks brassy or overdone, and it somehow manages to look better and better as it grows out. I can't tell you how many times I've had complete strangers stop me to ask who does my hair or if they can take a photo for inspo. No exaggeration. Beyond the talent, Kyle actually listens. You don't have to over-explain or bring a million photos -- he just gets it. Every appointment feels easy, consistent, and intentional, and I always leave feeling like my hair looks expensive (in the best way). I've trusted him with my hair for years and wouldn't go to anyone else. If you're looking for natural, lived-in, perfectly blended color... this is your sign.

THE -'s: street parking only. :( if you come during the middle of the weekday though, it shouldn't be too much hassle. SUM: booked an appointment here with kyle after reading the yelp reviews because my lifelong hairstylist retired. you pay half of the cost as a deposit up front and the second half is due at the end of the appointment. i actually really love this because it spreads out the cost and i'm not shelling it all out in one go. the appointment with kyle was a fantastic experience. not only is he skilled and gave me the exact cut i was looking for, he was also a great conversationalist. i spent the most relaxing saturday morning with him. kyle and beachy waves is now my go-to!

BFFR Period…read morepoint blank I have made time out of my days to commit to our appointments and the first time I did have to change the appointment I stated IF SHE CANT ITS FINE WE CAN STICK TO ORIGINAL, no biggie I can make the original, and then she cancels like bruh we could have stuck to the original & then I couldn't say yes to appointments offered the following day or week because: 1. I had a flight the next day like at 6am 2. when I return I go back to school Mon- Thurs literally 10am -3:30pm and then 6:30pm-9 3. I work 14 hour shifts Fri- Sunday . Not once did she offer if I'd like another stylist , not once did she offer a real accommodation . Let's be real and hold accountability , because this second cancel the day of appointments, messaging me hours before on IG asking to move my appointment earlier to then canceling is WILD . Original : I know the stylists have their own way of booking or dealing with affairs apart of the salon but I think it's wild they have a rebooking fee of over $30 if client has to reschedule last minute their appointments BUT when I get my appointment canceled TWICE by the stylist ON THE DAY OF THE APPOINTMENT , due to "family emergencies" that apparently always happen. I think it's wild that a stylist can waste a clients time and day considering the first time it was canceled I had planned to get my hair cut before my birthday trip and today it got canceled I had just told my boss no to coming in for a shift because of my scheduled appointment ... what do we clients get in return besides wasted time and lost money ? At least she returned my $20 deposit that has been kept since August but damn , homegirl really needs to take care of home before taking appointments , we have a life out here too.
