    Balayage
    Soojin A.

    It was the most satisfying experience I've had at a hair salon recently. First of all, the hairstylist was very nice and friendly, and the price was really affordable! I got my hair done with balayage. Before I was there, I was a bit worried since it was my first time there and the estimated price was so low. However, she really protected my hair (She bleached my hair twice), and the color came out exactly how I wanted, so I was really happy. I've already booked an appointment for next month to do the treatment of my hair. I think I'll be going there often from now on.

    After magic perm

    My sister had such a great new haircut, so I asked her where she got from, and she introduced me this amazing place, Boa Boa. Christine is so professional and really kind. I just received a magic perm today, and it turned out pretty decent. She provides the best service but charges less. I already introduced this place a lot to my friends. Highly recommend!!

    My appointment went so smoothly and it felt so relaxing. I added in a trim and she included dying my eyebrows. It was incredibly affordable and I enjoyed herself so much. i'm already excited for my next appointment! Thank you so much!

    Ashley. P is absolutely AMAZING. Not only is she incredibly talented, but she is also one of the…read moresweetest and most accommodating stylists I've ever met. She took me last minute without hesitation and truly made me feel like a priority. She listened to exactly what I wanted, paid attention to every detail, and completely delivered. My hair came out PHENOMENAL -- better than I even imagined. You can tell she genuinely cares about her clients and takes pride in her work. I walked out feeling confident, beautiful, and so grateful I found her. I will 100% continue coming to Ashley in the future. If you're looking for someone skilled, professional, and kind, she's your girl! ‍

    PERM DID NOT TAKE -- MANAGEMENT BALMED MY "HAIR CANVAS" INSTEAD OF SERVICE!!…read more I'm severely disappointed with my experience at Salon Technique in Fullerton. I went in for a spiral perm with clear reference photos and left with a result that did not match what was discussed and was assured was possible. Within weeks, the curl continued to fall out, and at this point there is very little curl remaining--even with styling products; what a loss of $460! After multiple attempts to follow up with Pamela Coryell the owner and Piage their "perm specialists", I did not receive any timely responses from either. When Pamela did finally reply, my concerns were dismissed and the outcome was blamed on my "hair canvas", including claims that my ends were lightened and too porous. This is simply not accurate--my hair is NOT colored, and I have had previous spiral perms which held well 8+ months and have matched the spiral perm look requested. To be certain I was not off my rocker, I had another salon in evaluate my hair that very same week I got the perm, and they confirmed the perm did not properly take, did not reflect what was asked for and they said I should be refunded. What's most disappointing is the lack of accountability from Salon Technique. Instead of acknowledging that the service fell short, the responsibility was redirected onto me the client! I requested multiples times for a refund and was denied and the only offer sent back was that I could return and re-perm little ares here and there with no promise that they would take! UNBELIEVABLE - I'm sharing this so others can make an informed decision. My experience says beware and do not go here. I expected professionalism and accountability, and unfortunately this salon does not hold to this level of professionalism. UPDATE 4/25/2026 JUST RECEIVED A SPIRAL PERM FROM Avy The Curly Girly at a different salon in Fullerton and I got EXACTLY what I asked for (see photo) and to boot... for way less! Dear Salon Owner Pamela and Paige it is NOT my "canvas" that's the issue!

Recently, I wanted to get my hair cut by her again but she gets booked so if you want your hair cut by her, book a good amount in advance!! Instead, I booked with Alice. Her english seems to be a little limited but I didn't mind at all, she was very kind and I just played her a video showing the haircut I wanted. I got a long layered haircut with some curtain bangs, and cost me $130. I only complain a little because I'm broke lol but otherwise I suppose it was worth it, because it's one of the better haircuts I've gotten in my life. Also, my hair was extremely long (butt length) but Alice handled it well and was also able to finish the haircut in about an hour. Would definitely come back in the future to see either alice or stacey! *note: at the time of my haircut (oct 2024) they were no longer working out of their DTF salon! they're now in brea.

Because of her skill and care, I try to get an appointment with her when I visit OC, even though I live in NorCal. So far, very worth it! I think what makes it the most worth it are the little details in her service. She taught me how to style certain parts of my hair using the blow dryer, which I asked about because I liked the way it looked on a kdrama actress, LOL. Now I do it everyday and love it! She also provides great product recommendations. Lena's salon is petite and cute, but it feels spacious enough since she usually has one customer at a time. Lena has a gentle and sweet approach to hair, making recommendations without feeling like they're being forced on you. I really appreciate that. She has done a great job dying my mom's hair, which seems to be her speciality, but I've also really loved having my hair cut by her. The products she uses smell very good. I believe she is able to speak in Korean, Spanish, and English. Highly recommend her services!

    I drive two and a half hours each way to see Ashley. Here is why that will never change…read more She has been doing my hair for 4 years and was the first person to touch my virgin hair since my teenage years. Incredibly patient, always wonderful, never needed more than a description to know exactly what I wanted. One thing to know going in is that Ashley keeps it real with you. Once you understand that, you realize it is actually one of her best qualities because it means she is completely focused on your hair. I moved and tried to save the drive. My hair paid for that. I rolled the dice on a local salon and asked for a soft natural look on my dark hair. They bleached 80% of my head. Went back to fix it. Came out looking like a tiger. Orange, blonde, dark brown, black, all at once. Went back a third time. Left fully orange. My hair was nearly beyond repair. I reached out to Ashley. She had me come in for a consultation on a Wednesday, saw the damage in person, saw my inspiration picture, and was shocked. We booked that same Friday. She blow dried between every round to check the tone. Never rushed once. Fed me her favorite Korean snacks and got me completely hooked. By the end of that night she nailed it. The color, the softness, the health Not many stylists can lift naturally dark hair, correct that level of bleach damage, and preserve the hair all at once. That is a rare skill. Ashley has it and she makes it look easy. Five hour round trip. Twelve hours in the chair. Worth every minute. Love Ashley

    Went in for a magic perm + cut since over call she told me it'll be $250. She asked how much length…read morethe cut so I asked for a slight trim but she ended up chopping a large portion of my hair (make sure she cuts the RIGHT length u ask for). The perm procedure took place (slightly different from the traditional, normal straight perm process since she did the neutralizer step while my hair was soaking wet dipped in their washbowl.) She also cut my wet hair while it was still soaking wet immediately after rinsing my hair post the breaking bonds step, instead of blow drying and flat ironing it (other places cuts ur hair while its dry). After she blow dried my hair after the final rinse, she charged me $270, different from the price she gave me at the start of the process saying "haircut itself is like +$30." I won't ever be returning due to this scammy malpractice *** update below: I told her that I prefer English but doesn't mean my Korean sucks which would cause miscommunication in the pricing. I was never communicated in either Korean or English that the price was an estimate, I was given a solid price no range or the word "about" was used during the call. I was never informed before the service that there would be extra steps in the service due to my hair condition - this should have been communicated before so I can decide whether or not I'd be able to pay the extra $20, instead of receiving upcharge price after all those additional "steps & curls" which I never asked for. The curls could have been done with a curling iron myself after the cut + perm, I never asked for permanent curls. I never had a single bad of this experience at any hair salon. I am honestly hoping for a hair undo and refund/my money back if possible

I recently visited for a men's perm and cut, and let's just say Judy (and her fantastic assistant) are absolutely amazing. From the moment I walked in, the welcome was so warm I felt like a VIP. They kept me fueled with coffee and beverages throughout the process. The efficiency was top-tier, and the vibes were even better. Pro tip for the fellas: Take a second to look at the haircut gowns before you dive in. I managed to squeeze myself into a very petite, very leopard-print woman's gown. Judy and I had a laugh once she realized I was rocking a look that was... well, a bit tighter than intended. Turns out, there is a men's version, but honestly, the service is so good you won't even care if you're accidentally making a fashion statement. I've finally found my "hair home" in Fullerton. I'll definitely be back for the next round! Gamsahabnida! (감사합니다!)

I took him to a new stylist at Elle after Judy left and she butchered his hair so bad loll so I went on a mission to find her! I don't write reviews often, but hoping to help her build her clientele because she is so good. My DH is crazy picky about his hair and he has a hard time finding someone he likes. After finding Judy and going to her this year, he was so upset when Judy left Elle and the previous salon wouldn't say where, so I went deep diving the internet and found her! She cuts my 2yo boys hair soo well. She is also so sweet and great with babies. So patient and has a quick hand, so she doesn't make mistakes even when they move. Also my toddler remembered from the previous salon that they gave him a lollipop after his haircut was finished, but this one didn't have any so I told him they ran out. But the Judy was so nice and went back, and remembered some lollipops from her bag and gave him some!! he was overjoyed loll It's so hard to find a good place to take baby boys, and I'm so glad I found her again and will be her forever customer. Also, cost is very reasonable for kids and men's cuts and it's worth it for all that's included. For women, it's on the lower end pricing for a Korean salon. Highly recommend Judy for all your hair needs!!
