Poor Customer Service. We just moved here and needed a salon for the whole family and decided to give this place a try. Called ahead of time and booked an appointment with the hair stylist Gabriel. We show up early and checked in at the front. We waited pass our appointment time, but he didn't show. Finally I walked up to the front and was told he was still with another client. It is fine that he's still with a client but the girl at the front should I said something to prepare us. Gabriel should have at least introduce himself and gave us a heads up for the wait. Serious poor business etiquette where customer service is important. read more

Recently came in for my yearly haircut. This time I was with Monica for a cut/color. She did an amazing job and spent four hours on some painstaking detail with my color. Thanks so much! *They do not accept tip from cards. Bring cash/checks. (I don't have a check book or carry cash.. wish I could have appreciated her a little more!!): read more

I absolutely adore Paula! I am not shy when it comes to cuts and colors so I think we are therapy for each other! The staff is friendly and the other customers fun - a good crowd all around. Pricing seems comparable - just make sure you have cash for a tip. You can pay by card but all tips cash only. They also have plenty of TIGI, Aveda, etc., products to purchase. read more

I had a haircut with an older asian gentlemen named Gabriel! Although he was kind and polite, I'm not quite sure how hey got carried away with the texturizing, but my hair shape is misshaped (like a triangle cone hair style on top of longer puffy sides), as well as my soft spot curly part now permanently sticks out like an alfalfa hair. However, I want to mention I have him instructions that perhaps were unclear, but I'm not sure. I instructed the older asian man that I'm a big fan of hair texturizing. By the way it was cut makes it look more frizzy, than beach texturize-zy. Anywhow, for being last minute I suppose it is OK. There are many hair stylists there so please keep reading reviews for a more holistic assessment. read more

This was my first time getting my hair done here. The salon was nice and they had a friendly atmosphere. Everyone, clients and stylists had a good vibe. This is my new place. I didn't know who to ask for and was placed with Monica. I'm so happy with her work. I only had a general idea of what I wanted and she literally made that happen. It was exactly what I had imagined. Just beautiful. She did a layered cut and a bayalage coloring. She's the bomb!! read more

Rhuki was our hair stylist. My daughter has wavy hair and I wanted more layers to show off her big curls. Rhuki did a great job. We also conditioned her hair. Our bill was $101. Creative Cuts is located inside the shopping center housing BevMo, Curry House, Union Bank on Hawthorne and Torrance Boulevard. This is a very busy salon with multiple hairdressers who appear to be all experts. It has complimentary tea and alkaline water by Nikken. It also has an air purifier by Nikken. read more

Creative Cuts International - Hair Salons Near Me - Torrance, California

I don't normally write reviews, but we had such a great experience today at Creative Cuts Int'l that I had to do it. I was visiting my mom from out of town, and we took my 8 year old daughter back to school shopping at Del Amo mall. My daughter decided she wanted to not only get a new haircut, but a pixie cut! I was a bit nervous because I don't know any stylists in the area, let alone anybody who could take a walk-in on a Friday afternoon. So I opened my Yelp app and saw that Creative Cuts was close by and had great reviews. I didn't think we'd get in, but I tried calling anyway and the receptionist couldn't have been nicer and said she could get us a slot with Kristy if we came right away. When we got there I was glad and a little surprised to see it was an Aveda salon (I didn't notice that in any of the Yelp info). They took my daughter right away and Kristy was really patient listening to her explaining what she wanted and showing her pictures of ideas she'd found. Kristy really took her time with my daughter and gave her a great cut. My daughter left that salon feeling so great and just beaming. I was so proud of her going for a dramatic change that not a lot of girls her age would have the confidence to pull off. Let me tell you that we went to dinner and another store afterwards and she got several compliments on her hair! Nobody knew us or knew she'd just gotten a new cut, but it looked that great! Kristy was awesome and everyone in the salon (even the customers) were so nice and happy. I only wish we lived closer so we could make Kristy our regular stylist! read more

Had my hair cut and dyed by Gabriel. He is very knowledgeable about hair and gave me a lot of great advice. I got a peek a boo done behind my left ear and Gabriel helped me choose colors that would match my natural hair color. He brought out several color samples to help me compare. Gabriel was very careful and meticulous about my hair. The whole process took about 70 minutes and included a blow-dry and styling. My hair has never felt so soft and light before. I definitely recommend Gabriel. Very talented and very humble stylist. He doesn't accept tips! I tried to give him a tip but he gave it right back to me! read more

I always have long hair for as far as I can remember. 1) I am always scared of getting short hair because I either look too boyish or I look like I'm in elementary school, too childlike - not sexy at all. 2) This year, I wanted to donate it. I do curls and style my hair, but years of no coloring or any treatments made my hair look...boring. Even with the occasional trimming. My hair is waist long. I spent weeks deciding which salon to have my hair cut short again to be able to donate it, and I am so GLAD I chose Creative Cuts again. I made an appointment with PAULA (after seeing so many good reviews here). Paula made me feel so comfy and I felt I've known her for years. She asked questions regarding my lifestyle and personality (job, fave colors, accessories you wear, etc.). She will cut your hair depending on your own uniqueness. It's getting a hairstyle that no other people have, it's just made for you. We spent a couple of minutes talking about that and she showed me styles that she had in mind, also showed me colors that will compliment my skin tone. She gave me 2 options on style and color. For the cut, I picked one that I think I'll be comfy with. The colors, I told her to go for it! I suggest you let your stylist have the freedom to express of his / her art through hair :) My friends and family don't usually compliment me when I have short hair due to the facts I stated above...but this was the only time I got so many compliments! Also, the first time I love wearing my hair short! Book with PAULA! She's awesome :) read more

Creative Cuts International - donated for Locks of Love. stylist PAULA - Hair Salons Near Me - Torrance, California

The owner is very nice and the salon is at at great location (next to Bevmo on the west side of Hawthorne). Service is what you'd expect from a salon and that they're a Bumble and Bumble shop, Avenda and Head Bead. With those lines of products, you can tell that this place is definitely more upscale. As far as the hair cut, I thought it was just okay. I've had better but I think my hair is tough to cut and it takes a couple of cuts to get it right. If you're in the area looking for a place for a salon, I'd say to give this place a try. read more

First time coming into this hair salon and and all I can say is that it was the BEST CHOICE I've made ! This review was during COVID and I can say they have handled the situation to the best of there abilities. Tadashi was my hair stylist and I would 100% recommend him ! I came in for a trim and some treatment for my hair that was very dry due to hair tools I use daily . Not only did he make my hair look and feel super healthy but he gave me products to take home to keep the moisture in my hair for free . To all the salons I've been to he has been the only person who has truly listened to all my concerns ! They have definitely won me over and have a client for many years to come ! read more

Whatever you are looking for, they can do it ! Male or female, casual or formal. The entire staff is warm and inviting. In this Covid era, they are extremely cautious and have safety in mind at all times. I was hesitant leaving my hair stylist if 20 years, but, once I went there, I learned the difference in someone who cuts and colors, Vs. Artists who take great pride in what they do and delivering what the patron wants. I've been going there for many years now. They even helped repair my attempt to color my hair during the pandemic. Never again ! If you want a cut, color or even repair of damaged hair , try this salon. You won't regret it. They also sell hair products , skin care products and some makeup but, not only do they hVe it there to sell, they don't push you to buy it. If you hVe questions and want recommendations, they know the products well. I once got there early ( pre Covid) and the staff was going through a training in some new products. The owner is as kind as can be. She has high expectations for any stylist on the floor which is why she has such a high rating. Give them a try!! read more

I've been going here for awhile now. Cherish does amazing work. I get my cuts and colors done here for a great price and wonderful work. I'm so glad they're back open so I can do something with this hair! I've been missing my shop. read more

I have been entrusting my head of hair to Lorna Fuji since 1996- She did and amazing job to help when meds "thinned" my hair to a FOURTH of what it was; she made it look beautiful for the day I needed it to look most beautiful for my wedding; I've grown it out and cut it four times in twelve years to help cancer victims. She takes care of that every time. I'm growing it right now to cut it again in November. Every time I go in I love the products she uses. She recommended Tigi Bed Head (blue) and I've been using them for over a decade. Even though I'm 54 years old, I'm fortunate enough that I don't need to use any chemical products yet. I know she'll tell me when that time comes! She is not just a woman who cuts my hair, She has become a trusted friend! read more

I've been going to the ever so bubbly Yoko at Creative Cuts for some time now and love what she does with my hair. She seems to really understand Asian hair and how it needs to be cut, layered, thinned out, and colored. I had a hard time finding a stylist that I trust my hair with and then my girlfriend recommended Yoko to me and I've been a loyal customer ever since. I also like the fact that she can pretty much to it all - cut, color, add bold chunks, highlight... I did have a consult with Quan to get my already straight hair straightened, but his prices were WAY too high (~ $400). I just wanted the process done to lessen my morning prep time, but the at the prices he quoted me you'd think I had super kinky/curly hair that would be difficult to straighten completely. I would recommend going to Kim Young Sun salon in Torrance to get this done instead. They're much cheaper (about $250) and I think first time customers can still print coupons online off their website. read more

Brittany rocks. I always enjoy coming here , great Torrance location and near everything. This place has been around forever and thus place has pedigree and great people I was in between my Manhattan beach spot and creative for years, however I'll stick w Creative & Brittany from here on out. Why no 5 stars? It's pretty simple to me as a creative type and global designer, this place needs a serious interior update. It's way past the face lift call and can u imagine this interior brought into a new era call 2017! So owners it's time to get bright , modern and attract the changing and needs of the money and chic movement of things in Torrance. Look at Hawthorne Blvd and Del Amo. The entire beach cities are evolving. I'll be back , but this interior is just so old and not very lively. Thanks Britt! read more

First time coming here and haven't been happier with my hair in a VERY LONG time! This place is professional with a cool and new look to it.

They harassed me by the manager stefani abe demanding I lie that I got my hair done at creative cuts when I did NOT, but they did leave my daughter under a heat lamp for 2 hours, overcharge her for it when they pressured their sales tactics on her, and threaten police on a child unexpecting a huge bill because she was just asking for a cut. It's family operated and controlled. They are money prioritizing and manipulated my family too many times. read more

Today I had the pleasure of receiving a haircut from Jason. I am beyond pleased with the results, Jason's work is fantastic! My hair was completely wrecked after a stylist razored the entire length of my waist length hair to thin it out without my consent in September of '19. The only healthy hair I had left was my re-growth from after the razoring which wasn't much. I walked in asking for a pixie as it was my only option with so little healthy hair. As someone who never wanted short hair or a pixie, finding the right stylist was extremely important to me. I conducted an extensive Yelp search and took a chance on Jason due to positive Yelp reviews and photos of his work and I'm glad I did! Jason took the time to listen as I explained to him what happened and why I wanted to cut my hair into a pixie. I explained that I wanted a soft & feminine version of a pixie as I've never had hair this short before. I showed him a picture of the cut I wanted and my end result is close to identical. Overall, I found Jason to be an excellent listener, empathetic, detail oriented, and highly skilled. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone, and especially to any females considering their first pixie cut. read more

Love this place! I've been going to Kara for about 2 years now and she never disappoints!! I would definitely recommend her!! She is friendly, accommodating, and knows exactly how to style/cut my hair. She was the first person I let cut 10 inches off my hair to donate and to devirginize my hair! I also drive about 30-40 mins just to get my hair done by her. The salon is also doing a great job to take precautions during COVID-19! read more

Thank you Kara for helping me chop off 10 inches of my hair to donate to locks for love. I love my new haircut. I am giving this place a 5 star because as a new mom it was really hard finding a place that would be flexible and allow me to come in with my newborn. I really appreciate the help this studio offered in terms of being flexible, getting me an appointment 2 hrs out, accommodating my Stroller and here is the best- allowing me to nurse my baby after cutting my hair. Nevertheless- you have found a customer for life! Thanks everyone! read more

I wish I remembered my stylist's name but all I can remember is that it started with an M, and it's not Monica. I asked for a cut to get rid of all my dead ends, put in some layers, and thin it out because my hair is thick and wavy. She proceeds to wash my hair and gets shampoo and water on my face and in my ears. After that, we move on to the cutting and she immediately starts cutting before clipping it and parting it. Throughout the process she used her fingers to brush out my hair and it was so painful. She began to blow dry out of nowhere and still used her fingers which made me almost ask to leave at that point. She asked how I style usually and I told her that I just put oil in and call it a day. She goes to the straightener and tells me it'll help maintain it. In the end, she told me that she kept the layers to a minimum so that it will prevent frizz. It is blunt, poofy, and I'm worried about how to work with it now. Not a word of mine was listened to. I will not be going back. read more

They just moved to a bigger space. The place is roomier, and vibes here is infatuating. Everyone here is super friendly and they always offer coffee or tea to sip on . Monica has been working on my hair for a year now. She's meticulous with her work, and legitimately cares about her customers. When I met Monica, I had been growing my purple hair out. Now I have silver/charcoal ombré hair and the best part, my hair is currently in the most healthiest state. Stop by and ask for Monica. read more

What a horrible place. By reading other reviews I am not the only one who had an issue with the lady in front. When I came in, she was talking to another lady, so I had to wait a while until they finish their conversation. Of course she knew I was waiting. She asked me what I want, and after hearing me, they kept chatting some more. Once the lady left, the front lady asked me if I could come back tomorrow and gave me a card to call. I asked her what time is available so that I can make an appointment, and she told me 2pm, 5pm.....so I told her 2pm works. Then she had this particular look and said "CALL TOMORROW" with a tone of voice as if she were convincing a child to get out of her place. How rude. She pretty much told me to go somewhere else or not to return here. She did not even allow me to make an appointment for God knows what reason, how I look? how my hair looks? I am sure something unreasonable, so if you don't want to be discriminated, you'd better avoid here. read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE it. Usually I dread getting my hair cut. I'm one of those people who had not found a permanent hairdresser, so I was bouncing around from one salon to another, and kept suffering from getting my hair hacked at. When my sister convinced me to try this place with her, I was definitely apprehensive, to say the least. I was in dire need of a cut, but tired of getting my locks chopped at. I was assigned to Yoko, and MAN ALIVE, that woman knows hair. I wanted a simple trim and my layers re-done, and I came out with one of the best, if not THE best, hair cut I've ever received. She took her time, but it was obvious to me that she knew exactly what she was doing, and what would work best for my hair. I love it!! I think I may have found a permanent salon... read more

I came here for the first time to cut my bad ends. My hair was tailbone length on a v shape. I told the girl that i wanted to keep my length but we agreed to cut about 5 inches since my ends were in bad shape. While she was finishing cutting my hair she reassured me that she had cut 5 in. After she finished drying my hair, i stood up and looked in the mirror, I couldn't believe it! My hair was bra strap length!!!! NEVER COMING BACK!!!! read more

Paula at the Salon is absolutely fantastic. Although she is a new member at Creative Cuts, she is certainly no stranger to the art of professional hair cutting. What I love about Paula is that she incorporates what you want along with your personality. She asks you questions as to how you perceive yourself to be and then makes suggestions as to how the haircut would suit you based on what you want. Another strong point about Paula is that you can tell she absolutely loves what she does and is passionate about making her clients feel like superstars. She is also savvy about current trends and if you like certain celebrity cuts, she knows exactly what you are talking about. Personally, I have had quite a few stylists give short haircuts but none have ever cut my hair where I feel that "Yes, this haircut is an expression of who I am!!" If you are open to suggestions and give Paula artistic creativity, she will delightfully surprise you. Thank you Paula!! read more

Linda N. knows what she is doing. Like the other Yelpers who have had her, she's a great listener and tries really hard to make sure she understands what exactly you want. Even if you're unsure, she'll give suggestions. Linda is really nice and has a laid back personality. She doesn't push you to buy products or purchase other services. The staff there is really friendly and it's a clean and welcoming place. It is a bit pricey - my cut and color was about $110, but I rather pay more for a haircut I'm going to love, than a cheaper price for something I'm going to regret. Creative Cuts is an awesome place - I recommend calling in advance for an appointment since this place gets booked really fast. And I would definitely recommend Linda N. if it's your first time going. You won't regret it! read more

There IS a difference between a $30/$45 haircut and a $58 haircut! To my recollection, I've never spent more than $45 for a haircut. I've bopped around the South Bay, Los Angeles and Eagle Rock asking for a layered cut. One thing all these hairdressers, who charged in the $30 to $45 range, had in common was the layers they cut were not well blended. They would cut heavy, wedgy chunks where you could see exactly where they took their scissors and cut. If you've gotten layers, you know what I mean. I've been to another hairdresser at this salon (a $45 cut), I won't name names, but I don't see her mentioned in other reviews PRIOR TO TODAY'S DATE, who was cutting the same chunks. I've even brought realistic photos (meaning not models who've spent hours getting styled and are standing in front of a wind machine) from magazines and had the haircut not look anything like the photo. I've seen actresses and yes, even Laura Diaz, the newscaster on Channel 2, get layers that were nicely blended in. I've seen regular people on the street with nice layers, but I was not getting them from my hairdressers. Until now. I found Tadashi's name in previous reviews and took a chance even though I've never paid $58 for a haircut. I just didn't want to spend the time anymore to wait for a bad cut to grow out, so I decided to spend the money. As I told my friend afterwards, SO WORTH IT. I saw him last Sunday morning (points for being open on a Sunday, mellow and quiet, unlike Saturdays). My appointment was at 9 a.m. I arrived at 8:55, and he was already there, ready to go. I always try to get the earliest appointment in the morning, and often, other hairdressers have arrived late, sometimes 1/2 hr. late. First, Tadashi had a consultation with me, and I explained what I want and DIDN'T want. I brought photos to illustrate. Then his assistant, Linda (tip her, too), washed my hair and gave me a mini scalp massage. Tadashi proceeded to cut my hair. During, I could tell the cut was going to be great. He pulled my hair in different directions and cut layers all around. He explained as he went along why he was cutting this and that. He even asked for my feedback on how I wanted my bangs and made recommendations. When I thought he was done, he walked me back to the hairwash bowl and rinsed my hair with water. Then back to the chair where he gave me a mini neck massage, then cut some more, then styled it. He also explained how I should style it at home. He spent over an hour, not because he was slow, but because he was meticulous about his work. Even though a lot of my hair ended up on the floor, I don't feel like the cut was too short, like "Oh, it'll look better in a month when it grows out a bit." My cut feels fresh and modern. And for the first time, I am satisfied with the layers. It's a wash-and-go style. It would look even nicer if I spent the time to style it, but it still looks great as-is. After when I was paying at the counter, the owner, Evelyn (?) came and introduced herself and welcomed me. The cashier gave me a welcome gift bag of a couple sample bottles of shampoo, a packet of hair gel, and a pen. I don't know if it's a new thing they're doing since as I said earlier, I'd been to that salon before a couple of times with a female hairdresser and didn't get that kind of reception, but it was still nice of them. read more

Thank god I had the good fortune of discovering Roselle just weeks before my wedding. I went through several bridal trial makeups recommended by online reviews, from Brea to West LA, but none topped Roselle's flawless makeover. I completely transformed to a beauty queen on my wedding day. I would have paid her 4 digit price if she asked for it. I have very sensitive skin and eye allergies. But she didn't make me tear up with lashes or eyeliners, and it was very early in the morning when I wasn't even fully awake. She was fully prepared, very fast and professional, finished my makeup under one hour. Pow wow~ work of a genius... At my wedding, first question every girl asked me was, "Who did your makeup?? It's gorgeous.. " Even my vendors asked for my makeup artist's name. I was so amazed that my eyeliners, fake lashes, and everything were still perfectly intact hours later, even after my many emotional cries. My friends and sisters all agreed my makeup was the BEST work they've ever seen in any weddings. However, you may have to make a special request to book with Roslle for makeup because her main specialty is hair styling. My last hair cut with her was FANTABULOUS. read more

So I usually go to a barber and get buzzed/faded. but I have been letting it get long lately and wanted to try a new style. I searched Yelp and saw a place with 4 1/2 stars with over 100 reviews. Cant miss, right? I want to keep this as fair as possible. The upsides- Having never been there, the people on the phone were nice and accommodating. I called on a Saturday and was told there wasn't anything until Sunday. I made the appointment, then later in the day was called about a spot that did open up Saturday. I declined and took the next day, but I thought it was nice of them to try and fit me in. The inside is very nice and pleasant. The booths are set up so that not everyone has their backs to each other- there is a bit more privacy. The downside- The cut. This was the only thing preventing a higher rating, since the cut is what I went for, not for friendly service and décor. First, even though they called a few times (which was nice), each time I was told a different name who was to be my stylist, and when I got there it was a whole other person entirely. I don't want to throw this person under the bus since I have no idea how good she might be normally, so no names given, but she barely cut it. She used all these fancy terms about where my hair bends but all said and done my friends basically laughed like "dude, did you even get your hair cut?" And when I told them that it was $35 I really got laughed at and was told Supercuts would do better for $20. Maybe I should ask my friends BEFORE I Yelp lol. read more
