First time getting scalp treatment, very relaxing I definitely will be coming back Mya was the best very relaxing. She did a great job. thank you Mya read more

We had a fantastic experience at Exhibit M recently. I'd been looking for a relaxing, knowledgeable headspa -- and I definitely found it here. I purchased the Rooted Ritual package on their website, which included a 90-minute headspa experience along with before-and-after hair analysis in a private room. Scheduling online was super easy. Eric and Mya were incredibly friendly, answered all of our questions, and provided thoughtful recommendations for our scalp and hair concerns. The salon is conveniently located in a shopping center with easy parking, and the overall vibe was calm and welcoming. I would definitely return and am happy to support this wonderful small business! read more

I've been seeing Annie for about 6 months now. She's the only one in Orange County I trust to get my bangs right. She not only gets it right the first time but she does a great job at making sure they grow out properly and still look flawless. The inside has a very chic, boho vibe with lots of greenery. Can't wait to try the head spa soon!! read more

Ok. First walking in, I was like this place way too cool for me. I'm a pretty low maintenance person and seriously gets my haircut probably like every other year. I'm a mom to a toddler, my hair is in a messy bun anyways like 99% of the time anyways so I haven't given my hair much attention in the past few years. I scheduled with Annie and sitting down, she asked what I'm looking for. I wasn't entirely sure but I did say what I had problems with. Which is that my hair just looks so flat generally and I don't have much time to care for it. I told her I want something low maintenance but I wanna feel a bit pretty and I want to keep my length. She asked a few more follow up questions and she agreed that some long layers would help and she explained to me how my existing layers wasn't given me what I needed and the difference of what she will do will help frame my face. Yall!!! She knew what I wanted while I didn't even know!! She have my hair the natural volume that I didn't even know existed. I'm a big fan. She's knowledable, got the skills, and honestly super personable and chill to chat with. 100% vibe. 100% skill. Will definitely recommend and will come back for my future cuts. Thanks Annie for making this elder millennial tired mama feel alive again! read more

What a gorgeous studio! I was immediately offered flat or sparkling water from the owner, Felix, upon entering and took a small tour of the space. I love how the design was specifically catered to a more intimate and relaxing experience. I was so awed by the head spa room that i bought a package. I've never done one before so I'm super excited about that!! Annie is super personable and friendly. I had a great time chatting with her and she meticulously cut my long hair. I love my length and I'm always weary when I go for a haircut since MANY stylists get carried away and chop off more than I'd like. Annie is not like other stylists. She really took the time to listen to what I wanted and gave me the exact cut I was hoping for. She's been cutting hair for a while and her technique definitely shows. The chair for the hair washing station is probably also the most comfortable one I've been on. Absolutely blown away by the thoughtfulness and care of this studio! read more

Back for my regularly scheduled 3 month trim and Annie has done it once again! I did the exhibit length cut + blowout, getting long U-shape layers with face framing pieces. Many salons where I've gotten layers ends up looking choppy after a few months, but Annie made sure that wouldn't happen. I loved my cut then and even more now since I maintained it with her! Schedule your appointment if you want compliments for days after leaving the salon! read more

I got the signature cut with Annie, and I loved how gentle and thoughtful she was with the entire process! My hair felt taken care of and she was super easy to talk to. The only thing is that it takes about 1.5-2 hours, which some people might think is a bit long. But since it's using only shears, understandable! I was also able to try out the reset to clarity scalp treatment from Eric, and I didn't realize this was something I needed in my life. A lot of their products were made in house and I learned about my scalp and what I needed. Not only was the scalp massage amazing, but so many of the little stuff made the experience a 10/10. My scalp actually felt squeaky clean for the first time and even my hair had that fresh cut super smooth feeling that I couldn't stop touching. The salon was modern, cute, and really clean! read more

The service, ambience, and interior is absolutely exceptional. I've come here twice now, once for a head space with Maya and a haircut with Annie. I've been to my fair share of head spas, but I can say without a double that the head spa was truly next level. Honestly, I don't think I've ever felt that relaxed. They use all natural ingredients and really focus on balancing the scalp's pH and also include a sound bath which was quite unique. The whole experience is definitely worth the investment. On a second occasion, I got a haircut with Annie and she is a literal god send. She's extremely knowledgable and gave my hair the little sparkle that it needed to fall so perfectly into place. I can't wait to come back for my next refresh. read more

I'd like to start by saying a big THANK YOU to Felix and Mya for being so kind, welcoming, and making my experience one of the best I've ever had. The salon's offer to the Irvine community was very generous and I cannot wait to go back! I went in for a 35 minute Reset to Clarity head spa ritual with Mya, who was the absolute BEST! This was an experience like no other. It starts with a mini consult about the health of my scalp with the use of technology and honestly it's eye opening to see! I struggle with dandruff and dry scalp so I figured this would be a perfect time to reset. It's a beautiful experience in a relaxing spa room. They offer a choice of essential oils made "in house" that honestly smelled amazing. The weighted blanket and steam eye covers are a lovely touch to make the experience relaxing. After the scalp spa, hair is dried and then able to see the difference! I cannot wait to be back and take part in this experience again! read more

You can "let it go" just like Elsa here... Such a cool and unique spot. The interior design makes you feel like you just stepped into a modern and exotic green sanctuary. The staff were very kind, accommodating, and welcoming and always made sure we were hydrated. For Mother's Day, my mom and I were pampered with a head spa by Mya and Eric. The weighted blanket, eye and hand warmers were such a nice touch, and the calming scents mixed in with the Pink Himalayan salt added to the relaxation. I loved the tea pours because it felt so soothing. I wish the session was longer. This whole experience is what every mother needs! Thank you Mya and Eric. I'm glad my mom got to experience this since she is always helping others and forgetting to care for herself. Exhibit M is a true gem! read more

This review is long overdue, but I had the most wonderful scalp treatment with Eric a few weeks ago. Through the scalp analysis, I was able to see and learn about my scalp type, and then receive a customized treatment to help with my areas of concern. Eric was knowledgeable and sincere. The interior is beautiful- clean & modern but also cozy and inviting. Felix was also super helpful in answering all of my questions. I can't wait to be back to get a haircut and another scalp treatment! read more

Overall this was a fantastic experience - this was one of the best headspas if not probably the best one I've had! Haruna was my headspa masseuse/specialist and she was FANTASTIC! The environment was absolutely well thought out, down to every little detail to the flow of the service. It truly was an experience and a memorable one. //CONTEXT// Booking was very easy! I made a phone call to ask a few questions and booked over the phone. You can also book online on their website but I just had questions and they helped me over the phone. //ENVIRONMENT// I didn't feel like I walked into a typical headspa or salon. There were so many plants that was inviting, warm furniture, and it felt like an artistic studio with artists working on their craft! However it was not intimidating at all - I felt this warm energy from everyone working there! The headspa room itself was so amazing. There was relaxing music, lights that were warm, and so much greenery! I feel like other headspas are lined up next to each other but everything at Exhibit M was self contained in one room to give you ultimate privacy! Other headspas feel bare and this one was so inviting. //EXPERIENCE// - Scalp analysis: Haruna was my headspa specialist and she took before photos and after photos and gave me a consultation! She said I had a bit of combination areas on my scalp. - Aromatherapy: I loved the focus of aromatherapy here! So many uses of smells from oils, to a tea bath, to amazing smelling products! This is huge for me since I feel most relaxed with all these products! - Massage: Haruna has the magic touch! Her massage was amazing and I feel like they used massage throughout most of the treatment whereas other places might use gadgets and other stuff which I don't always like. I like how here it's very hands on! - Small details: slippers, robes were provided. A small sound bath like experience! Heated hand pads and a weighted blanket are provided !!! No other place does this except here! //OVERALL// I could go on and on about this place but you really need to try for yourself. Thank you to Haruna and the entire staff for making my weekend that much more relaxing ! read more

My husband and I had appointments for head spa treatments. Prior to the appointment, I was given an intake survey to help personalize my treatment even further. As soon as I walked in the door, the vibes were great and the staff were so welcoming. Decor is beautiful and the establishment is clean. The treatment started with a microscopic scalp analysis and was followed by a walk through of materials and treatment. Eric was very knowledgeable and created the perfect experience. He gave me a relaxing massage and gave me hand warmers and weighted eye mask. I was also given a weighted blanket and there was peaceful music in the background. I was so relaxed that I ended up accidentally falling asleep! Overall the entire scalp treatment was personalized and compared to other head spas I've been to, this one was luxurious in the best way possible. Afterwards, I was shown my scalp through the microscope again and there was a positive difference. I'm happy with my experience and will be recommending to friends! read more

My visit to Exhibit M was truly special. The moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and safe. Mya has such a gentle, calming presence that it's impossible not to relax. Every step of the treatment felt soothing, and I left feeling peaceful, refreshed, and deeply cared for. This is a place that genuinely nurtures you read more

I finally found the one--my go-to hair salon and mini retreat from the chaos of mom life! I've now tried both the head spa and a hair color service here, and I'm seriously obsessed. The vibe is everything--I love all of the plants everywhere, the sound of a gentle water fountain, and a calming energy that hits you the second you walk in. Total sanctuary status. I've been to a few head spas in OC and even abroad, and this one blew me away. Mya was incredible--her scalp and shoulder massage was so relaxing, I forgot I had two toddlers waiting for me at home. The 'Reset to clarity' service was under an hour, which made it super convenient, and I loved the use of natural ingredients. (Getting tea poured on my scalp? Surprisingly soothing!) They even showed me before-and-after pics of my scalp, and the difference was wild. I loved it so much, I ended up buying a head spa package for my husband too. I came back recently for a hair color appointment with Annie, and she was just as amazing. She really took the time during our color consultation, asked all the right questions, and never tried to upsell me. We landed on a soft, natural shade with a gloss to help tame my frizz, and it turned out perfect. Bonus: her prices are super reasonable, especially for the quality of service. Between the natural yet chic atmosphere and the top-tier service, I can't recommend this place enough. It took me years to find a salon that checks all the boxes--and this is it. read more

Mya was super sweet and knowledgeable!! They make all their products in house. I got the reset to clarity head spa and it was super relaxing! My hair feels so clean and soft. read more

First time at this salon, it's very aesthetic. Annie is super knowledgeable and easy to talk with. You can tell she has a wide range with cutting different styles. I chose a shoulder length cut since I wanted an easier transition for when I eventually cut a shorter bob, and it turned out great. She shared some suggestions about how to protect and take care of my hair which is a bit more coarse and thick. My hair turned out great, just they way I had requested. Thank you Annie! read more

5 Stars From the moment we walked into Exhibit M, the service was flawless. The front desk was warm and welcoming, and Felix made sure everything ran smoothly for me and all my sisters during our very first head spa experience. Mya's treatment was pure magic. The combination of essential oils, serene ambience, a calming tea pour over the head, and her skillful massage had me melting into the chair. I was honestly embarrassed by my "before" scalp photos during the Reset to Clarity treatment -- but the "after" images blew me away. Even days after the appointment (and after some heavy, sweaty workouts), my hair and scalp still looked and felt amazing. The location is also perfect -- right by some of my go-to dinner spots like Capital Noodle Bar and Curry Do. Post-treatment glow and dinner for the family? Yes, please. Thank you, Felix and Mya -- I can't wait to come back! read more

I opted for the Reset to Clarity treatment with Eric, and it was hands down the best head spa experience I've ever had. Eric started by showing me a close-up of my scalp, which was a mix of dry and oily, and then walked me through each product he was going to use and why. I asked a ton of questions about hair growth, and he answered them all with ease--he's truly an expert. The treatment itself was incredible. He began with aromatherapy using their house-made oil, followed by relaxing scalp massages and a deep cleanse. He even added a special treatment to my dry ends, which was such a thoughtful touch. The before-and-after photos of my scalp were night and day, and three days later my hair still feels amazing. On top of that, the space itself is gorgeous--modern, calming, and instantly relaxing. Thank you, Eric, for such a wonderful experience! I can't wait to come back. read more

I truly loved my experience at Exhibit M! First off, there is such a calming atmosphere walking in, and the whole team is so friendly and inviting. I've been long overdue for a cut and Char knew exactly what I wanted after our consultation. I ended up getting long layers in V shape with long face-framing pieces. I LOVE my new hair and can't wait to throw on some overnight blowout rods and wake up with 90's style hair. So impressed by his expertise! I've also gotten my hair done by Annie before and her work is also AMAZING with her attention to detail! We can also talk about everything as she can make anyone feel comfortable. So impressed by the hair team here -- now I just need the full experience with the head spa appointment. Rate: 1000/10 experience - loved every moment! read more

I truly enjoyed my "reset to clarity" head spa session. Mya gave an amazing scalp massage, and tips on how to be kinder to my scalp and hair. The salon's ambiance is very relaxing, and full on indoor plants! Felix welcomed me in with warmth and friendliness, along with restaurant recommendations for my bucket list haha. I really appreciate the welcoming vibe! Location is great too, I now can run errands after my self care session. I'm looking forward to coming back for a haircut next. read more

I had never had a head spa treatment before, and received the Reset to Clarity service with Eric. He first took a zoomed in picture of my scalp and showed me the areas for improvement, and at the end of the service took another picture for comparison. I really liked being able to see the results. Eric was so thoughtful, and answered all of my questions. I appreciated that he gave me lots of advice and recommendations when I asked, but wasn't trying to sell me anything. He took his time and the whole experience was very relaxing. I highly recommend Exhibit M! read more

Absolutely blown away by the head spa treatment!! Where was this all my life?? I'm in town from New York and needed some R&R, my friend highly recommended Exhibit M. I've been having very bad dandruff and my neck muscles have been so stiff from sitting in front of the computer all the time. Their head spa treatment was perfect for all the ailments I had. I was thoroughly impressed by how attentive and knowledgeable Eric was. He spent time analyzing my scalp, giving me comparisons and breaking down the science behind all the ingredients they used in the treatment. I could tell they really put time and care into curating their products and process. Everything they used was natural (and smelled so nice) The treatment itself was so relaxing... I nearly fell asleep a few times. I highly recommend Eric, his massage treatment was top tier! Honestly I've gotten head massages before and they are usually pretty low effort. Eric's hands were firm, but also gentle. It all felt very luxurious and I left feeling so refreshed. Worth every penny. I actually booked a hair treatment too afterwards, will report back! read more

First time customer here at Exhibit M and it was great.  The hair salon and head spa atmospheres and the vibe felt inviting and comfortable. Each room felt like stepping into separate sanctuaries including the bathroom! I went with Mya for my head spa treatment and she took the time to analyze and talk about my scalp. She also took the time to go through what to expect and she had a beautiful set up of natural ingredients they mix on the spot for the treatment! Once we isolated the issue, she began to prepare me at the seat and weighted blankets felt amazing. The wonderful aromas and the warm lighting immediately put me at ease. She began by working in products to cleanse and then exfoliate my scalp. Her massage was excellent and she took her time going through every process. It felt slow, intentional, and very relaxing. I almost kept slipping in and out of sleep! I was also very impressed with the overall professionalism and the quality of the service - from intake all the way through checkout. I always felt taken care of and guided. Everyone was exceptionally kind and friendly. I found that the pricing was super fair, especially for the level of service and the location. read more

Annie takes fantastic care of the wiry birds nest that I call my hair. My hair texture and cowlicks makes it difficult to cut and style, but Annie is so patient and thorough that I always leave her chair feeling great. And she's so chill, it feels like getting your hair cut by a friend. If you're feeling adventurous and want a new style, she'll walk you through the maintenance and make any adjustments to suit your hair texture and daily routine. She'll never push products on you like some other salons. She just wants you to look and feel your best. The salon itself is also just lovely, with lots of indoor plants and understated but elegant decor. They also offer spa treatments that I haven't yet tried, but I do notice a steady stream of spa guests whenever I have hair appointments, so I assume it's quite popular and that bookings get snapped up quickly. read more

Eric was fantastic and the treatment was relaxing and delightful. Who knew my scalp needed so much love! Highly recommend!

This was my first time at a head spa and it completely exceeded my expectations. I went with a friend, and we both had such an incredible experience. I was with Mya and my friend was with Eric--both were so professional, kind, and skilled. You can really tell they care about what they do. The session started with a detailed scalp analysis, which was super informative and cool to see before and after. From there, it just got better--soothing aromatherapy, relaxing scalp massage, steaming, and a bunch of other thoughtful touches that made the whole thing feel luxurious and deeply calming. My scalp has never felt so clean and refreshed! Highly recommend this place if you're looking to unwind and treat yourself. I will definitely be back! read more

This studio is extremely nice. When I booked I was contacted by Felix who asked me what service I was thinking to get there so they could make sure they could plan well the appointment and times. When I arrived Eric took care of me while waiting for my stylist to arrive and offering a scalp analysis. He was very friendly and extremely nice. Annie, my stylist, have me a very pleasant hair wash and listen to my request and went straight to work. She was very patient and kind and nice and gentle. I definitely recommend this studio. Probably I willl try their other services in the future! read more

I've always wanted to go to a head spa. I heard that Exhibit M had just opened and was excited to try it out! The studio was super cute and clean. The room where I had my service was nice and spacious. The ambiance was great. I sat down for a scalp analysis and Eric was very thorough with explaining what the camera tool was doing and what he was taking down for notes on my profile. He showed me the tray of products and talked me through the process and I was pleased with being able to select ingredients that he would use on me. I love how the ingredients were all natural and there was no gatekeeping of what would be used. I loved how the session began and ended with a neck, shoulder and hand massage. Eric also made sure I was comfortable and hydrated. The treatment was so relaxing. The massage pressure was perfect and he always made sure I was doing ok. It was such an amazing experience. My hair was feeling so soft. I definitely recommend Exhibit M! read more

I love this place. My technician was Haruna. She is so kind and has really good skills! She was so gentle I could sleep during the head spa time.

Annie helped me today and did an awesome job on everything. She even consulted me for 5 minutes before the service to ensure I got exactly what I wanted. I wanted exactly a few centimeter off the top and that's what she did. Felix was a big help too with getting me scheduled for an appointment. I gave him my schedule and he looked over at both schedules to ensure I got in at a good time. read more

I went to Exhibit M Salon for the first time and had my appointment with Mya, and she was genuinely amazing. She was super sweet, checked in with me throughout the whole process, and really made sure I was comfortable. You can tell she cares about the little details, because my hair came out so much better than I expected. The salon itself is clean and relaxed, and everyone there was friendly, but Mya is really the reason I'll be coming back. She took great care of me and made the whole experience feel easy and enjoyable. The salon itself was very well put together and have a very tranquil feel and smelled so good. Highly recommend her! read more

Such a beautifully crafted space for calm and relaxation. I went in for a "Reset to Clarity" scalp treatment and learned so much through Mya. She took pictures of my scalp before treatment to show the state it was in and what would be needed to rejuvenate it. The treatment I went in for would show immediate effect but would not last. Either way. I was very satisfied with the process and knowledge given and will be going back for the Rooted Ritual treatment which is much longer than the one I did. I took some pictures of the room you go into so you can get a perspective on just how relaxing it really is. read more

Just for reference I drive all the way from San Diego to here just to get my haircut. Always an amazing experience from start to finish at Exhibit M. From being greeted by the front desk, the ambiance of the salon, and to the work and friendly banter I get from Char. Everything is top notch! Char's knowledge with hair and the effort and care he puts into his clients is clearly visible. We always start off with a consultation to see how we like the hair and then he delivers on what I'm looking for. read more

Omg!! I've been looking all over LA for hair spas and many of them looked dingy and made me hesitant to try / wasn't sure if worth the trip. Exhibit M however, is truly a gem!!! Its clean girl aesthetic puts you to peace almost immediately and sets the tone for an elevated experience to come. The staff is welcoming, sweet and attentive. They take the time to explain and answer any questions you have. The attention to detail is apparent in their charcuterie of natural essences that have been thoughtfully assembled and presented. It's a full sensory experience and is so soothing. And then there's the head and neck massage -- which was divine!!!! Highly recommend!!! You will not be disappointed. There's only two private hair spa rooms right now, so best to reserve when you can!! read more

Everyone here has such a passion for what they do and a true desire to make your experience wonderful. The massage was my favorite aspect of the head spa service; Mya's hands are magic and strong and her sincere and sweet personality made my appointment all the better. The assessment they do of your hair is so neat and I was astonished at how much cleaner and healthier my scalp looked after the service. I came for the head spa service but saw a lot of men getting haircuts and they all looks really good LOL. Anyway, totally recommend coming here! read more
