I recommend Steller to all my friends and the few that have already gone have also loved their hair and the ambiance. Frankie was super patient and open to my ideas and hesitations and helped me zero in on my perfect cut. My partner and I went in the same day to get our haircuts and were both so happy. Since then, I've been back for my free bang trim, it was just as reinvigorating as the original hair cut appointment. The music was 10/10 and they treat you like an old friend! I loved the candy bowl in the waiting area I thought it was the cutest touch!

I was lucky enough to he the first customer in the new chairs! They're nice!

3 stars because the place itself is nice. I booked with Nathan due to another Yelp-er's…read morerecommendation... I have pretty thick hair that I wanted some layers in. I showed Nathan a picture of what I was looking for and we had a good consultation. I was satisfied walking out of the salon because he blew my hair out really nicely, but here I am a few days later panicking because the layers of my own hair just look like AWFUL extensions. I blew my hair out at home (usually I just air dry, and mentioned this to Nathan) and I cannot describe how choppy it looks. Eek. I'm reluctant to even try to fix this because I don't want to lose any more hair, and it's a shame that this cut was over $100 with tip. I'd book with someone else next time.

I think someone asked how much a men's cut is: $30 (a bit on the medium end for me), $10 for a shampoo. Credit fees have gone up for retailers, so they prefer cash.

Scheduling an appointment was super easy, just note that they are only open during "work hours" on weekdays due to their location in the Crossings Commerce. I overhead Moises asking my SO a ton of questions before diving into cut his hair, which is always a good sign. I also have to give him props, since I was the last person to cut my SO's hair, and I had no idea what I was doing...yet his cut still turned out AMAZING! I was super happy with my haircut as well... I usually go for layers and side bangs, and Karina made that happen while honoring the fact that I am still growing out my hair. I have "Asian" hair so it's usually pretty difficult to find somone who can make my hair visions a reality, but Karina was awesome! She also is a great conversationalist, and there were no awkward silences during the cut. I will say that they are super busy--they got tons of phone calls and walk-ins during our cuts, so definitely try to schedule an appointment if you can! I will to continue to happily support this minority owned/family owned business!!!

She also gave suggestions and gave my that "body ody ody" girl boss look. Did I mention she was funny?

Amazing massage!…read more You have to remember this is for education for students so you won't get the upscale feel but after the massage got started and I closed my eyes it was like being in a luxury spa. They had the music and essential oils going. The rooms itself is small and not decorated but has the essentials the students need for the massage. I noticed they don't close the doors and just have the curtain so I was a little confused when I was told to undress if the door was going to close or not. It was a sunny day so the sun was shining pretty bright so the room wasn't very dark. They had the fan going but it felt really nice with the heated bed. The foot soak was nice in the beginning, he gave me a choice of essential oils and gave me a little foot scrub after the soak. I did the serenity package for $90 which included an hour of foot reflexology where he followed the chart. The next hour compromised of a face massage (he put gloves on for this), scalp, neck décolleté, arms, legs, abdomen, glute, and back. He really worked out my problem areas and added some stretches in. I was so relaxed and comfortable the whole time. I do have to mention his voice was very calming and soothing and he checked to make sure I was ok with anything before he did it. I really appreciate him spending extra time with all my knots and issues. I wish you great success in the future Dan! They have two free parking lots that had plenty of spaces when I arrived. Bring cash to tip since they can't take tip on a card.

What wasn't expected was the poor professionalism from instructors and management. It took two instructors to create a color formula, yet my hair turned out much darker than discussed and had noticeable missed spots. When I asked for corrections, I was met with back talk, rudeness, and resistance instead of support or accountability. A touch-up was eventually done, but I still left with a result I didn't ask for and without anyone taking responsibility. Disappointing experience, especially compared to other Aveda locations. I will not be returning to this location , largely because of the behavior of the people who are supposed to be the educators.

I didn't get the cut I was looking for, and after leaving feeling unsure and shy about speaking up (as is so often the case with us women), I called and let Hannah know I was not happy with the cut and wanted it to be fixed. The layers were uneven and choppy and it just was not even close to the pictures I brought in. For how expensive her cuts are, I expected more. She denied my request for a fix, and said I needed to wait a week and then come back to her if I still didn't like it. I was quite shocked by this unprofessional and cold response, especially because I was nearly driven to tears about how my hair looked. Because of how this whole experience went, I asked for my tip to be returned. She agreed, and then informed me that I would not be welcome back. Not to worry--I don't want to come back. P.S. I was able to find another curly hair stylist to make a fix the same day. She was shocked at how uneven and haphazard the cut job was.

Check in online, it's impossible to do a walk in, even though that's their thing... I tend to walk by and check who's working, if I don't see the usual people I leave and cancel my check in. This Salon must've changed management or something... I really hope the owners know how great some of their stylists are (the ones who've been there for a while). I wouldn't come here anymore if the sisters, Rona, or Jenna leave. read more

Some of my tech friends and I have been coming here for almost 15 years and never a single bad experience.

I didn't even know he knew about this salon until I asked him one day when we were at the bar. I asked , "where did you get that awesome hair cut?", and he said Mai Hoa Salon.

Proceeded to get a cut for my son and the First Lady completely butchered his hair. No where close to what we asked for in the picture. Continued to try to show her the picture and explain what a fade is, she just seemed to ignore me! My son had to itch his face many times because his hair was falling in his eyes and she wouldn't even stop to let him itch and proceeded to get hair all over his clothes. Didn't bother accommodating even when I asked her to stop for a moment! She gave up half way and didn't even finish, started talking in another language to the other lady. Never experienced anything like this in my life, she was unprofessional. She couldn't do a normal fade and had patchy spots where she took off too much in some areas and uneven on both sides. The other lady did a much better job but unfortunately the fade didn't look professional at the end but at least she fixed it as best she could. If I knew they were this bad I would've and could do a better job cutting it myself. Very disappointing outcome! On top of the horrible job they charged 25$ for the kids haircuts, I felt bad for the other lady that had to try to fix it so at least tipped her but the First Lady with the scary eyebrows was horrendous, & unprofessional. Not sure how she does this for a living
