    After photo of my hair!

    I was a first time client here at EM Hair Studio and from the moment I stepped into the building, I knew it was going to be a great experience. The atmosphere was clean, bright, and modern. The parking was readily accessible, but the signs for the establishment are small. If you ever go, make sure to check the entrance doors for the logo before you enter. The new client intake form on their website was super convenient and easy to access. I was contacted by a stylist less than a week later about setting up an appointment. They were super accomodating about the price range I set and the time frame I wanted to have my hair done by. Response time was fast and clear which I appreciated. Keke was the stylist who had done my hair and she was amazing! I felt welcomed and comfortable during my time with her. Keke treated me with grace and patience as I let her know about my hair history. She was kind, approachable, and easy to talk to. Her knownledge and recommendations about my hair were refreshing to hear after being treated by stylists who weren't as thorough or communicative. Throughout the process, she would tell me what she was doing. Even when there was a small imperfection in my hair (a piece was lighter than the other) she let me know and instantly worked to correct it. I am very self concious about my hair and by the end of my session, I was grinning from ear to ear seeing my new look. It was exactly what I wanted. I will definitely be a regular client here & will recommend EM Hair Studio to anyone who needs their hair done. Thanks again Keke

    I've been going to Kat at Em Hair Studio for about a year, and she's amazing! She keeps my hair looking fresh with regular trims and keeps my hair toned that I love. Em Hair Studio has such a welcoming vibe, and I always look forward to my visits. Highly recommend Kat if you're looking for a stylist who truly cares and delivers every time!

    Love my hair!

    I decided to try a new salon instead of going to my usual salon. I came here on a whim in desperate need to cover up the abundance of gray hairs on my head. I also needed a haircut to get rid of my lifeless, bleach-damaged hair. My appointment was with Kat and she was just the sweetest! I felt that she really listened to what I wanted from my visit and she delivered exactly that! She answered my questions, gave me her professional advice, and overall was just a pleasure to talk to. My entire appointment was 3 hours long but it didn't feel like it. I am going to be breaking up with my previous hair stylist because I am going to Kat from now on! I am LOVING everything about my hair! Definitely recommend this salon and Kat as a hairstylist!

    Always a great experience here. I've been getting my hair done with Keke Marito and she's just amazing. Her dimensional color technique is gorgeous. She's patient and detailed oriented. I also get my hair cut from here every few month to keep it fresh and light. I also appreciate how well they communicate with me and the ease of the appointment making (rescheduling and making new ones is a total a breeze). Parking is super easy in the back of the salon. Lots of snacks for the clients, coffee and the occasional booze is always a pleasant surprise.

    My hair styled!

    Kat is super nice and made my hair turn out really good. I would definitely come again. I asked for a balayage mushroom brown shade and got just that. Thank you!-Layla

    I got my hair done by Susan & man oh man!!! she is a hair goddess!! I went in for a consultation, not sure what I wanted but wanted a new look and most importantly I wanted to look pretty. She gave me the hair of my dreams. She was honest. She is so skilled. And I love that she is also a big cheerleader. I love that she wanted me to feel my best and it was her priority too. Man it's so hard to find good hair dressers who loves what they do and they're good at it too. I am truly so satisfied with my hair and color. So happy beyond words.

    Yvonne washed, blow dried, and styled my hair for a wedding I had to attend. She was very professional, attentive to detail & I never felt rushed throughout the process! She works with you from start to finish to create an individualized plan that works best for your looks and preference! The place was clean. She is very laid back and doesn't force any awkward conversations. I will recommend her to all friends and family and will be coming back to get my hair cut and colored!

    I came here for a haircut with Yvonne! I'm very picky and feel insecure when I try to describe what I like but Yvonne was very nice and made me feel comfortable with describing what I liked even though I didn't have the right words to use. She really wants to work with you to make sure you leave loving your haircut! With that said, I left loving my haircut and felt heard as a client. And As for the salon, it was very clean! Area is also nice and not very crowded.

    Kat was absolutely AMAZING. I was not the easiest client to work on, given that my hair was a mess and needed so much color correction to get my achieved results. Kat blew my expectations out of the water. She was so thoughtful (asked me very detailed questions around what I was envisioning), and was extremely meticulous with her work. I can't tell you how happy I am with my results and how thankful I am for Kat. It was so hard to believe that she hasn't been doing this for years and years; she has a wealth of knowledge under her belt and she has earned my trust completely. Thank you so much for restoring my confidence and for being such a lovely person to work with. I can't wait to visit her again

    How much for women haircut?

    I am a brunette with currently a golden/dark blonde bayalage. I am looking to get it lifted and toned. Who would be a good person to schedule this with? This would be my first time at the salon? Also is there any range of pricing listed somewhere?

    I would suggest that you consult with Destiny at Averlinc. She's a very talented colorist!

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.

    A few weeks ago, I found TT Salon and Cindy on TikTok and Instagram, and was really impressed by…read morethe results she posted. Unfortunately, my experience was incredibly disappointing. I booked a digital perm and showed her multiple reference photos, including examples of Cindy's own previous work. Before we even started, she took out her phone and immediately began recording me and the reference photos, which made me feel uncomfortable and not fully listened to. She told me that to achieve the look I wanted, I needed more layers, so I agreed. I also specifically emphasized that I did NOT want a wavy perm, I wanted large, blowout-style curls just like the photos I showed her of her previous work and more. Instead, I left with tight waves that looked nothing like what I had requested. I was honestly so shocked and upset that I barely knew what to say. My hair looked damaged, and I knew I'd be stuck with the results for many months. When I expressed that this wasn't what I had asked for, she dismissively told me the reason it didn't look like the photos was because I needed more layers, even though she had already cut layers before starting the perm. She then cut even more layers afterward, leaving my hair thinned out, uneven, and very top-heavy. She then asked if I wanted her to redo the perm, but the way she responded felt abrupt and dismissive... after spending four hours in the chair, I wasn't comfortable putting my already damaged hair through another chemical process. She still recorded before and after videos when the results were clearly different from what I had requested. Overall throughout the whole service, there was very little communication, so I had no idea what the plan was and what was going on with my hair. I felt completely left out of the conversations. Cindy called after I left and offered to have me come back so she could restyle my hair, but by that point, styling wasn't the issue, the perm itself was not what I had asked for. A few days later, after hoping the curls would loosen, I contacted her on Instagram as unfortunately, it didn't improve. She didn't apologize at all and instead only referred me to the salon manager. The manager was kind, responsive, and acknowledged that he understood my frustration and agreed that the results were not what I had requested. But after several conversations, he offered either a redo or a 50% refund. I appreciated the effort, but I paid nearly $400 for a service that did not match what I requested... and now I have to spend more money at another salon in the future to try to correct it. I also wasn't comfortable accepting another chemical service so soon after my hair had already been damaged. Overall, the experience felt unprofessional from start to finish. I came in excited after seeing Cindy's work online, but I left completely disappointed with results that did not resemble my reference photos, and am still dealing with the results. My hair is still damaged, frizzy, half straight have tight waves, just a mess. Based on my experience, I would absolutely not recommend this salon.

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.

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!

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).

    I love getting my blowouts here because it's clean and relaxing. Customer service is always on…read morepoint. It had been a while, but I finally went back last week. I do recommend you make an appointment because sometimes they're really busy. If you have an appointment, you will not have to wait, they usually take you in right away, which is a big plus. I had my hair washed by Sue and she was really nice. She asked if the water temp was okay and did not get any water in my ear like other hairstylists at other salons Lol. She took her time washing my hair which was nice because it was very relaxing. They also got new chairs....well, they're more like beds. Leo was the one who styled my hair. He took his time; I did not feel rushed. He left my hair beautiful, shiny, and straight!

    I've been going to Steven for years (when he was in Hacienda Heights, now he goes back and forth…read morebetween both locations), and I can't imagine trusting anyone else with my hair. My husband and my daughters now get their haircuts from him too! He has an incredible attention to detail and always listens to what I want, while also offering expert suggestions that complement my face shape and features. Steven is passionate about what he does, and it shows in every cut, color, and style he delivers. I always leave his chair feeling confident. He's easy to communicate with and makes scheduling appointments a breeze. Whether I need a quick trim or a total transformation, Steven is always professional, thoughtful, and consistent. Highly recommend Steven to everyone looking for a hairstylist who combines talent, experience, and genuine care. I'm tempted to gate-keep him because I don't want to have to fight for an appointment with him!
