He answers the phone almost immediately every time I call, always texts to confirm appointments, and somehow manages to make time for me even when his schedule is completely full. This last visit meant more to me than he probably knows. I had just been laid off from my job and had an important interview the next day. I felt overwhelmed and stressed and knew I needed a haircut to feel even a little more confident going into it. Even though Leo was fully booked for days, he offered to see me two and a half hours after his normal closing time. After a long day of work, he still welcomed me with kindness, patience, and warmth and took incredible care of me without ever making me feel rushed or like an inconvenience. When I went to pay at the end of the appointment, Leo stopped me and told me he was taking care of my haircut because of what I was going through. That moment genuinely brought me to tears. In a time when I was feeling really low, his generosity and compassion meant everything to me. Leo is not only an incredibly talented stylist, but a genuinely good human being. Acts of kindness like this are rare and unforgettable. I will always be thankful for him and could not recommend him more highly.

My hair looks elevated without trying too hard. She took her time making sure everything was exactly right before I left. The color looks soft, natural, and beautifully blended, and the cut has so much movement and shape. I never felt rushed, and she checked in throughout the appointment to make sure I was happy with everything. I'm super happy with the results and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend Susan!

Today was my first time at Em Hair Studio and I had a wonderful experience with Keke. Getting my…read morehair cut is generally an anxiety provoking experience for me. So much that I never really stray away from a basic trim and a few layers added to my hair. In fact, the last 5 years I went to the same hair stylist even though I didn't like how my hair would turn out most of the time. Today was a day for change, I wanted to try something new with my hair and I wanted to go to a new hair stylist. I decided to put my trust in Keke. This turned out to be the best decision I could make. Before she started, Keke consulted with me about what I wanted. I feel like she truly listened. Keke took the time to actually stop and pause every step of the way and ask me what I thought of every cut, length and layer. I've never had a hair stylist do that before, usually I'm just asked at the end if I like it. She absolutely didn't need to do all that but that's what I appreciate so much about my experience. I didn't feel rushed or put on the spot, I was given moments to process how I really felt. For the first time in a long time, I really loved how my haircut turned out. Wispy bangs, face framing layers, and long layers throughout. Keke nailed it exactly how I envisioned and I feel like a new person. She even gave me tips on how to style my new bangs. Keke is patient, thoughtful, friendly and kind. I so genuinely appreciate my experience with her. I will definitely be coming back to get my future haircuts with her too!

I've come here for years for perm and cuts. Glad to see their business has grown.... But the…read morequality remains very high! Tina, the manager/owner, is still my go-to person but I saw the finished work of other stylists and they were good too. Definitely recommend this place -- one small thing: you may have to wait a while, even with appointment.

Tldr: Don't get your hair done by TONY…read more I got my digital perm done about a week ago have been debating whether or not to write a review. However, this whole appointment and the end result was too unpleasant for me to ignore. Tony was the one who did my perm and Tony was unprofessional. Please avoid having Tony do your hair. To start, Tony showed up to the appointment 15 minutes late (and his coworker was telling him his 11 o'clock was there) and then seemed very disinterested in trying to get the service started. Then, after briefly glancing at my reference photo and finding his own- Tony told me that my hair needed to go shorter and proceeded to give the most careless haircut ever. Total hack job. During the perm, Tony rolled each hair extremely tight that he even had to pause to massage his hands. The overly tight rolls bruised my scalp and Tony was so careless with placing the spacers between the rollers and scalp that I actually was tearing up because the pain was so unbearable. And even though I mentioned that it hurt Tony lowkey just ignored it?? To top it off- Tony ran out of rollers HALFWAY throughout the process so I had to wait with the crazy tight rollers for around 30 minutes (I am not exaggerating). And Tony's not the one that informed me about it- Tony's nice coworkers were the ones that continued to check in and keep me updated. Also, the whole salon had 3 digital perms going on (including mine) and they kept grabbing the rollers coming off from another client and directly using it on my hair. I don't know if that's normal but I thought every tool was supposed to be disinfected prior to using it on another client. If the digital perm turned out the way I wanted- I would not be so upset but the curls were MUCH MUCH tighter than I asked for. But mostly the experience sucked. And it sucks because I had come here previously for a regular perm and had such a great experience that I trusted the salon for another appointment. I will not be visiting this salon again. (And clearly I am very upset towards TONY for messing up my hair and being totally incompetent throughout the whole appointment. Also, maybe you wouldn't lose YOUR VAPE IN THE BIN OF DIGITAL HAIR ROLLERS if you weren't too busy vaping while doing your client's hair.)

I have been coming here for two years now. I love Isabel. She is professional, thorough and…read moredetailed-oriented. Kristine is also really good too. I've done traditional highlights, haircuts, balayage and cover grey and styling. The interior is modern and clean. They will offer you complimentary water, coffee, tea, and sparkling water. This salon is located in old town Monrovia off Myrtle and across the street from the public library. The stylists at this salon tend to take their time and let the coloring sit longer, which I have come to appreciate greatly. Except the first time when I went, I didn't know, that their services take longer and ended up running late to my event, which was stressful. Now I plan extra time when I go. I really only had one bad experience and the issue was addressed promptly and professionally by Judy, the owner. So all in all, a really good salon for the Monrovia/Arcadia/Duarte area.

Let's Go was super close by and had great ratings so I sent an inquiry via Yelp. Within a few hours, I had a response and appointment with stylist Judy for the very next day! As far as my trim experience goes - Judy was fantastic! She was ready right on time, super friendly and welcoming, and did a great job on my trim - just as I asked. I would most definitely book Judy again! And there was a beautiful young woman getting an updo in the chair next to me and it was magnificent! I was impressed how gorgeous it was so they definitely do great work here! They have an online appointment portal that seemed easy to use and I'll try it next time - but I was hesitant initially bc the prices seemed quite exorbitant and wanted to be sure I wasn't mistaken so I sent an inquire instead. Turns out, yes, their prices are shocking imo - for just a tiny trim of my hair and bangs (less than an inch off) it was $70!! And that's not including the tip! No shampooing or styling even! So that was quite jarring for me - but the prices seem to pretty standard in this part of Monrovia. Be prepared for sticker shock lol. But to their credit, the shop is in an excellent location, is clean, modern, and chic and the stylists do great work. There are some parking spaces directly out front but it's limited - but the surrounding area is walkable with tons of free public lots. If you do book with Let's Go - I highly recommend Judy!

This place accepts both walk ins and appointments made by phone (they even can make appointments…read morefor same day). My bf called earlier in the day for a later appointment (4pm). We saw the place many times while shopping at dollar tree in the plaza and thought it might be fast and inexpensive. When we arrived, there was plenty of parking nearby. The place is next to many stores and the front of the stores are pretty transparent with glass windows for walls. There were three staff, all were available and when we walked in they asked if we had an appointment. As he was getting his haircut from one of them, two customers came in, one had a 4pm as well and the other was a walk in and they were both accommodated right away. One had really long hair, they even wash your hair. The other was short just like my bfs hair. My bf asked to cut the top a bit short and at times he would ask a few changes during and the stylist would accommodate . The haircut took roughly 10-15 minutes. Since I wasn't getting a haircut, if you don't want to wait, there are clothing stores, cafes, restaurants and a dollar tree you can go to explore. The haircut was good (in my opinion), it was roughly 25$ which is more than we thought. They had a sheet of prices he showed my bf and that's when we realized we should've asked for pricing before making an appointment rather than assuming. Overall, I thought the place was clean, fast, and accommodating during a Thursday evening (they probably weren't too busy on a weekday which makes sense making an appointment on weekends if they do get busy).

Kit is extremely professional and has a strong sense of ethics in his work. He truly knows how to…read moreprotect her clients' hair and does not simply push expensive treatments just for the sake of selling. Instead, he carefully recommends the services that are actually right for each client, and that is something I really admire about her. After my haircut and treatment done there, my hair became noticeably shinier, smoother, and much more manageable. Before that, my hair was very dry and frizzy from perming and coloring, but after Kit worked on it, it honestly looked and felt much healthier, softer, and more radiant. Highly recommend!

Good conversationalist, very comfortable demeanor and cutting style. Came in to get some options for new hairstyles for myself and my son. I don't have too much experience with salons. Price was reasonable so I gave it a shot. Location a little bit confusing to find. Basically look for the salon on 10 1st Ave, the ask for Kit, he has his own station at the back of the salon. I'm pretty passive myself, so while I came in for recommendations, I didn't push too hard. He was very accommodating, but not as assertive as I would have liked. Not his fault, just would have wanted more guidance but too passive to ask for it ha. My son and I ended up getting similar haircut, which neither of us minded. His hand/scissor skills seemed very efficient. Lots of quick, small cuts, that moves quickly. He had some concerns cutting my 7 year old sons hair, understandably. After seeing my sons mild demeanor, he was willing to cut and welcomed us back for next time. My cut was initially a bit longer on top than I wanted, he apologized (unnecessarily) and immediately went to trim the top a bit more. Very accommodating and seemed to really want to check if the client was happy with the cut. Will visit again for our next cuts. Maybe I'll be braver, maybe I'll wait till next summer ha. Sorry no pics this time. I'll try to remember next time.

I had to id a new hair dresser (bc I moved) and was so nervous since my previous hair dresser was so wonderful. Carolina was super friendly and welcoming. This was my first time meeting her and she took her time to discuss my hair goals. I shared that my goal is to preserve length but also to maintain its health. I opted for a blunt cut with face framing layers, and she D E L I V E R E D!!! She trimmed the perfect amount and did not leave it short at all. It was the perfect refresh! And, her scalp scrub was 10 out of 10! I've gotten wash & blowouts at other salons, and my scalp will still feel dirty. But, not with Carolina! My scalp felt super clean and she hit some pressure points. The blowout was super pretty. I also talked to her about some minor greys I have and asked about her root touch ups since I was doing them previously. She was so honest and said she didn't recommend it. Instead, she recommended a hair product for cover up from the Style Edit (which she is not sponsored by, does not have a partnership with, & does not sell at her salon. I purchased through Amazon without her giving me a direct link) I've been using that and I'm obsessed! I got to save my coin and I appreciated her honesty. I also asked about glosses (which she happily does) and she recommended continuing my in-shower glossing at home to keep my hair healthy. Carolina's integrity shines. I will keep coming & report back.
