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

I'm grateful to have found Vanessa!

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 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!

It genuinely traumatized me, and ever since then I had only been getting blunt trims while growing my hair all the way down to my butt. I originally started seeing Jade for my color, and she has been incredible from day one. Before I found her, I used to bleach and color my own hair at home, and it would take me over four hours. Jade gets me to an even better result in less than half the time, and the consistency of sticking with her keeps my color better and better every time. She's so knowledgeable and efficient. After years of being too scared to let anyone cut my hair, I finally trusted Jade enough to give me layers again. I can honestly say it is the best haircut I've ever had. She listened so carefully during our consultation, made sure she understood exactly what I wanted, and checked everything before I left to make sure it was perfect. She gave me beautiful layers while keeping the length I had worked so hard to grow. Beyond being incredibly talented, Jade is just the sweetest person. She's so easy to talk to, every appointment feels like catching up with a friend, and she's genuinely invested in making sure you leave happy. I never feel rushed, and she always takes the time to make sure everything is exactly right. I'm officially locked in for life. I genuinely can't imagine trusting anyone else with my hair again. If you've ever had a bad salon experience that's made you nervous to try someone new, Jade is the stylist you've been looking for. I only wish I had found her sooner.

(She didn't mention anything about payments) So I show up and when I'm about to get my hair washed I ask if they take any other forms of payment Apple Pay / Zelle etc. she states THEY ARE CASH ONLY !! Which is not a problem but she DIDNT mention this in the phone !! As well as on the maps it states they do accept this form of payment . When I mentioned to her that I don't have any cash and I can't get my services done. She asks me " Are you sure ?" Ummmm yes I'm sure I have no cash lady. Anyways as a reassured her that I don't have cash she turns around and says, well I'm not providing your service today another stylist was gonna do it, Let me ask the stylist who is if she accepts those forms of payment.( she didn't and she replied a little snobby in my opinion ) so I ended up leaving without my services. I understand that most salons are cash only but it's very upsetting that I already spoken to Holly on the phone and she didn't mention that they are cash only salon that is very unprofessional on their part! As as well as if I booked an appointment with Holly why would she not perform my services and give me to another stylist who is already busy with another client. I found the salon very unprofessional!!!!

She handled the situation gracefully and offered to waive the color service for me. Her honesty, sincerity, and dedication to customer satisfaction is incredible, and I'm so happy I found her.

Her vibe is always upbeat, fun, and genuine. She made me feel instantly comfortable from day one. One of the things I appreciated the most was how honest she was. If I came in with an idea that wasn't right for my hair type or health, she talked me through it and help me find something fun and realistic. She truly cares about the health of your hair and takes time to explain what she's doing and why. This was important for me because I'm pretty much clueless when it comes to any of that stuff, but I always still want to have a nice hair. She even was able to do the hair for my sister's wedding! The only reason I'm no longer seeing her regularly is because I moved away. That being said, I have to admit that I traveled back to see her more than once before finally settling in with a new stylist closer to home. If that doesn't tell you how amazing she is, I don't know what it would! If you're looking for a talented, honest, and creative stylist, look no further.

I have mixed feeling to be honest. The person who did my hair was very sweet which made this review…read morehard to write. My hair came out pretty, but it wasn't what I asked for. - Cut: The layers weren't done well so it sort of resembles a long mullet at times...kind of a mushroom shape effect. Feels like I have only 2 layers I'm descent with hair so can mask it a bit with curls. - The highlights are fine but they are old school/ going to root all over and not the ballyage effect I asked for. That said, they were blended nicely. - The color is red/orange which bothers me more than the cut. I said multiple times I didnt want red or warm... my whole head, not just the highlights, got toned a fairly strong red hugh. I invested in blue and purple shampoos trying to tone it down. It helped a bit. I did give her feedback but I don't want to go back to get it fixed because I've been back once already and I'm not confident in her ability to fix it at this point. She did offer to try again. I think i gotta wait this one out a few months and then get a trim and/or tone from someone else. Facility was cute and clean, free parking out back. Waited a month to give the review as I wanted to give it time to settle in.

Got there, parked on the side street and walked to the salon. The vibe was chic and relax, super cute decorated for the holiday. Monick was my hairdresser. She looks so much like my sister in law!!! Her hair is gorgeous and her makeup was very beautiful. She let me know that she needed to clean her station since she just finished her previous appointment. No worries with me, I was a bit early.

Her salon is small & tucked away in a little plaza in Long Beach, but so worth finding! We actually know about her because my mom's coworker referred us! The atmosphere is so intimate with only 3 salon chair. Oh! She treated us to complimentary ramen & donuts lol. Prices are unbelievably affordable.. only $400 for both of us, including tip! That's rare these days!! The only small note is that Maly has a bit of a heavy hand while working!! My mom on the other hand said she actually loved it because it felt like a scalp massage .
