Caleb did a great job with my haircut! It turned out lovely, and the Arca Genol Head Spa left my hair feeling healthy. Highly recommend!

I had a wonderful experience getting a refresh on my hair by Caleb. Loved the atmosphere and was welcomed kindly by Helen who washed my hair with an in-house product Arca Genol, which smelled like I was at the spa. Loved this salon and definitely will be coming back! Thank you! read more

Came for the first time and got my haircut with Caleb! Super fast and professional haircut. Thank you

I can't say enough good things about Hair Arca! Caleb and Helen were absolute angels. They understood exactly what I wanted and then went above and beyond what I even imagined. I walked out feeling like the best version of myself. The space itself is stunning. Every detail is so thoughtfully designed, right down to the restroom! While you're processing, you get to unwind in a gorgeous, relaxing lounge, and they treat you to a lovely beverage and snack. It feels less like a salon appointment and more like a little retreat. From the artistry to the atmosphere to the care they put into every moment, it's a 10/10 experience. If you're on the fence, book it. You won't regret it! read more

Ugh. I've had my share of bad haircuts -- trust me. Like BAD, to the point that I've had family look at me and say, "Oh man, what happened?" Unfortunately, this is one of them. Like... what happened? Caleb spent LESS THAN 10 MINUTES cutting what others in the salon literally described as the "thickest hair we've had all day." And yet it was basically chop, chop, chop... done. No blending. No finessing. Meanwhile, he was cutting THREE clients' hair at the same time. The double/triple-booking clearly did me no favors. This was especially frustrating because their online system had already allowed me to book with Caleb the day before, only for me to find out that appointment was a system error and I had to be rescheduled. If you don't have the time to accommodate me or my coarse hair, just tell me. I would genuinely rather reschedule or go somewhere else than be rushed out the door looking like this. Instead, I left with what looks like a staircase for layers, along with random chunks of long hair that were apparently just... missed. And honestly, that's not surprising when an entire women's haircut on extremely thick hair is done in roughly 5-10 minutes while the stylist is simultaneously working on other clients. I paid $120 for this haircut. At that price, I don't think expecting someone to actually take the time to blend the layers, check the cut, and make sure entire sections weren't missed is asking too much. I'm genuinely baffled by how rushed this was and how bad the result looks. read more

I recently visited Hair Arca to cut off my damaged ends, and they absolutely did not disappoint! I was honestly a little nervous about going shorter. I have a small head, my hair tends to fall flat, and past short haircuts have made me look older than I actually am. But Caleb completely changed my perspective. He took the time to create a cut that complemented my facial features perfectly. The result? My face looks brighter, more defined, and so much more youthful! I walked out feeling lighter, refreshed, and so much more confident. (I'm honestly a little embarrassed my sweater didn't do the haircut justice. I should've dressed cuter today! ) Before the haircut, Helen washed my hair and treated my scalp with the Arca Genol Head Spa & Hair Pack, followed by the most relaxing scalp massage. As someone who struggles with an itchy scalp and dandruff, I was genuinely amazed. My scalp felt instant relief, and even now I'm not scratching my head at all. It leaves such a soothing, cooling sensation that's perfect for the summer. If you're looking for a fresh new hairstyle, talented stylists who truly care about finding the right look for you, and a scalp treatment that actually works, I highly recommend checking out Hair Arca. And if you fall in love with the Arca Genol Head Spa & Hair Pack like I did, you can even order it on Amazon. Treat yourself. You won't regret it! read more

Came to Hair Arca for a much needed cut and was treated to a headspa! Their ARCA Gencol felt amazing on my scalp. 10 out of 10 would recommend. My hair was styled by Caleb who was so fast but also precise. I felt very taken care of. And thank you Helen for a wonderful experience. Definitely would recommend. Definitely will be back. read more

If you want a haircut that feels like being in Edward Scissorhands, Caleb is your guy. The whole cut took 20 minutes and felt like absolute chaos, with him grabbing my hair in different directions and chopping away like a sheep-shearing pro. I was genuinely worried about how it would turn out, but out of nowhere, without a single product used yet, I looked in the mirror and had the perfect French bob. When I came to post this review I read other feedback from people who felt he rushed their cuts and left them uneven and I completely understand why they felt that way because I had that exact same fear in the chair! So while he could probably afford to slow down a bit for each client's peace of mind and avoiding any mistakes, he clearly possesses incredible skill. It was honestly humorous how fast and fearless he was compared to super expensive, overly meticulous stylists who've given me the exact same cut in the past. I'm very satisfied with how it turned out and can't wait to keep coming back! read more

Loved the head spa and the massage products and Caleb is so skilled at what he does. Loved my experience !

I came in to get a men's haircut and textured perm. The service was phenomenal. Caleb did a great job on the styling of my hair, and Helen was very warm and welcoming. Her hospitality was beyond incredible, and elevated the whole experience. I will continue to come back for my hair services every time. Thank you so much, Hair ARCA! read more

I had a terrible experience and am incredibly disappointed with a $120 haircut plus tip. I came in asking for a blended, texturized lob and showed clear reference photos. Caleb took a quick look and spent less than 15 minutes rushing through my hair, leaving the top layers completely disconnected from the bottom. It literally looks like a blunt bowl cut sitting on top of a straight curtain of hair (see my photos). When I told him it didn't look right, he just dismissed it, blaming the blow-dry and saying "I think the layering looks good." On top of that, the assistant's blow-dry was an incredibly outdated style that made me look like an ajuma. I contacted the salon to get a refund so I could pay a different salon to fix the structural mistake, but the receptionist hung up on me. I messaged management with photos, and they just sent back script responses refusing a refund. Careless and unprofessional. Check the photos to see the disconnect for yourself. UPDATE: The salon's response completely misses the point. This isn't a styling issue or a limitation of my "hair density"--it's a fundamental technical error. Rushing through my dense hair in less than 15 minutes is exactly why I was left with a blunt, blocky bowl-cut shelf sitting on top of a straight curtain of hair. Also, their "detailed communication" was just a copy-pasted script refusing a refund. I am not comfortable letting the same stylist cut more of my hair to "refine" a mistake he dismissed in the chair. read more

I haven't gotten my hair done done in about 5 years besides dead end trimming 1 or 2 times a year. I got my hair colored and cut here and I loved it. Service was great and felt like I was getting pampered. :) creative director Caleb was detail oriented but very fast with his hands ! read more

Very unprofessional. The receptionist can't understand English, and confirmed appointment and when I showed up she said she didn't book it. She cut my girlfriend's hair and didn't even layer. Literally just cut it off straight! You can do that at home. Did not even apologize. Smh read more

I like Hair Arca for the firs t I went to get my hair done Caleb. He did the highlight and toner. Helen did a good job & all the cudtomers were nice good to me Thanks read more

First, You cannot believe the reviews because they coerce clients into leaving 5 stars by offering a discount on your appointment- not sure businesses are allowed to do that. I had a mediocre haircut there this week- it's shorter than I wanted it and the ends are too thinned out but I wasn't going to actually write a review. Second, they try to push their hair products the whole appointment for purchase and during check out. Third, I was going to schedule my daughter a haircut as well but she got sick and I had to cancel. I gave plenty of notice and they said they'd waive the cancellation fee but I would have to book with a different stylist because the stylist didn't want to take us again. Then they went back on their word and tried to charge me anyways. I only support businesses with integrity and I will no longer be doing my hair here. I don't recommend. read more

Had a lovely experience here with my digital/restorative perm and haircut. Luna was amazing, super experienced, and is very knowledgeable about her craft. The complimentary hair wash and scalp massage were great as well. Planning to come back for my next hair service in the future! read more

So happy I got my haircut done by Caleb. He's very fast at cutting hair which can feel intimidating for most. However, he can replicate the picture of the haircut you want very well. I was extremely satisfied by my haircut. the vibe is also very relaxing. read more

Caleb and Helen were amazing! Went for a men's perm (my first!) and couldn't be happier.

I got my hair cut with Stacy. Very clean place and calm vibe. She was very good. I loved their scalp treatment conditioner. Definitely worth it. Parking garage is available. read more

I got my haircut by Caleb and loved it! I can be really picky but saw that he has a lot of experience with hush cuts and he nailed it. He worked fast but very carefully too and I'm really happy with the result. I will definitely be back. They also used the Arca Genol Head Spa on me while washing my hair, and it felt great with the head massage especially. read more

Stopped by here after seeing a TikTok and was welcomed by Helen who started me off with a hair wash and scalp massage, very pleasant! Helen was friendly and made the experience more comfortable. They give you a locker in the beginning to put away anything you might want to keep safe while getting your cut. After my wash they brought me to Caleb who was extremely professional. One reference photo and he figured out exactly what I needed and was extremely quick. He gave off a very confident air that makes you feel like you can trust him with your hair. Offered some refreshments as well which was nice of them. Overall pleasant and quick experience, would return. read more

Caleb was amazing, great bouncy blowout! they used the arcs head spa and hair pack and my hair feels so soft and clean (: will be back! read more

Caleb was a very helpful stylist! Men's haircut and perm went smoothly -- took my picture into careful consideration and wrapped up efficiently Would return! read more

My haircut came out great it was just really fast. I would come in pretty certain of what you want. Caleb cut my hair!

God this is consistent the best cut and color I've ever had in la, like I've tried a lot of places and no one gets the exact look I want like Hair Arca. The little massage while you get your hair washed is also heavenly. My boy Caleb crushed the cut and color and Helen used this incredible cream called head spa and hair that I will 100% be purchasing. Half hour quicker than expected 10/10 and the vibe is amazing it's such a pretty space. read more

Luna and Stacey are both great and very talented! $120 for a hair cut, free parking on side street or meters and parking lot that validates! Very relaxing hair and scalp massage for the hair cut! read more

I LOVE my digital perm! Caleb did my perm with Helen assisting and I felt v well taken care of. Helen put a special product in my hair and Caleb was very attentive in showing me how to style my hair after. I was nervous about this going badly, but I can't wait to come back. read more

I had hair cut with Caleb . He is amazing and quick . Been here few time , never disappointed. They did give me a hair wash with Arca Genol , feel so so good . read more

The staff at the salon is lovely, attentive, and kind. Lisa was great and I really appreciate her. I had come here a few other times for simple trims and my hair came out great. This most recent time however was very different. I was traveling from across town and there was an accident on the freeway that pushed back my arrival. My appointment was at 1pm. I called twenty minutes prior to inform them I would arrive at 1:08 and they said that was not a problem. I arrive at 1:06. Caleb seemed irritated. I showed him the reference photo and he began working on my hair. I only wanted a trim and some wispy bangs. He rushed through the entire cut. Half way through he began working on another client and then returned 15 minutes later. I was trusting the process but the end result was nothing like the photo I showed him. I attached them for reference but I am absolutely devastated by what I received. He overbooks his appointments so if you want something even remotely complex there is little to no attention to detail and he gives you whatever he deems is close enough. Each cut is given roughly 15-20 minutes however if you want more than a trim done, far more time is necessary. read more

First timer here & it was highly recommended by instagram folks and multiple online platforms. I'm only giving it 1 stars for the hair shampoo and dying was up to my liking and Lisa was pretty hard working when she was being told to do stuff left and right from blow drying to moving certain tables to shampooing customer's hair to putting towels into the dryer. Helen was very interactive while my hair was getting dyed. Very friendly. Caleb was my stylist. He was being efficient but sad to say he didn't meet my expectations with my haircut. He gave off high aurora after showing a pic of what I wanted once, which the cut wasn't similar to what my photo has shown to him. I didn't except my bangs to be this short and up against my face when the photo shown to be curtain bangs. I think he tried to style it a bit more so it covered up the bangs being messed up. I think this place is more so better at just dying and head spa treatment than cuts personal opinion wise I felt semi pressured to tip them so the cut wasn't worth over $300 for... Edit: I gave them a call after few minutes leaving the shop to ask for a refund. Caleb himself told the receptionist that they can't do that cause "time was spent cutting the hair"....20-25 min cut is equivalent to well spent. That's insane. I have shared to Helen, during my session earlier, that I've done some research on salons prior to settling down with this salon to cut my hair. I expected to feel renewed but it's the reverse. Personally I feel like when someone walks out of a salon with a new hair cut, you're basically getting a free advertisement for your product but I'm not proud of my cut to say that I'm walking out in public with confidence. Especially the fact that a hair cut helps bring an image/impression of someone. I'm glad I wasn't going on a date/interview or anywhere that needs to be physically presentable cause this cut would ruin it. Should've looked at the review made by someone 2 months ago who wanted a wolf cut too...I much rather have my hair looking like a mop than this. As the manager and head stylist of this shop, you shouldn't be proud that not just one but two customers has left reviews that aren't pleased with their cut, a free voucher to come back to get it "fixed" isn't gonna cut it. What else are you gonna cut? My bangs that's already beyond my forehead? Are you going to buzz off my hair too? On the call, I only asked for a refund for the cut (around $111) and not the full refund price of $375 including tax. But to state saying he doesn't even want a cut refund is ridiculous...it comes off as you're not apologetic for ruining someone's image for the next few months....spraying product on my hair isn't gonna hide the fact that you ruined the cut and it's nowhere close to the reference photo... Mind you, Caleb has never mentioned to me that the photo of my choice as reference was too long for my hair prior to cutting it. The only thing he kept emphasizing on was "you want to keep the back long right?". He also never mentioned to me that he would cut my bangs extremely short either, that's not even close to how the bangs are suppose to look like in the reference photo. The reference photo bangs were CURTAIN BANGS not SHORT, BOWL LIKE BANGS read more

I had an amazing experience from start to finish! Before my haircut, I treated myself to the hair spa service with Helen, and it was wonderful- she used the Arca Genol hair product on me, which smelled incredible and left my scalp feeling so fresh and clean. Such a relaxing way to start the appointment. My haircut with Caleb was honestly the best I've had in a long time. I have a lot of hair, and it's thick and coarse, so it's not always easy to work with:but Caleb nailed my request 100%. I asked for long layers, and my hair feels absolutely amazing now, so much lighter and more manageable without losing any length. The styling afterward was the perfect finishing touch. Highly recommend both Helen and Caleb! read more

Love this salon and return every single time! Caleb is amazing at not only doing what needs to be done but also at consulting in improving how the style could look. Done so efficiently, with care and such an amazing, kind team. Have been getting cuts here regularly and recently got a digital perm that turned out great! read more

Far more than I could have imagined, the expert cut, service, and attentiveness was above and beyond. The result is absolutely amazing. I could not be happier. Caleb has talent and skill beyond anyone I have experienced before. Helen and Kelly were lovely as well. The bonus scalp massage was wonderful. A full service pamper day, they offered coffee, tea, water, and even cookies. Today I had the restoration perm with the added C curve. The product they used called Arca Head Spa and Hair Pack is amazing. My hair is now shiny with so much volume. Thank you so much. read more

This place is amazing. Came in for the textured perm and Helen instantly provided me with outstanding service and hospitality that makes this place special and is a big reason I keep coming back. After she washed my hair Caleb came and asked me for a photo reference for my hair and started to cut it to my liking. After the trim they started the perm. The entire time I was sitting in the chair letting the perm sit Helen's hospitality never stopped. She asked me many times if I was okay, how I was doing, if I needed more water, or if I wanted any more snacks. She really makes this place feel amazing to be at every time I go. After the perm was done she put products in my hair and massaged my scalp which felt amazing. Once she finished she brought me to Caleb again where he put the finishing touches on my amazing perm and made me feel like a new person. This place is all around a 10/10 the service here is just as amazing as the hair services they give. I will be back again the next time I need a haircut. read more

Just received my first haircut at Hair Arca. I was greeted by Helen who was so friendly. I wanted to get a korean short layered haircut and referenced a photo to Caleb.

I will be coming back! read more
