Balayage
Kylie R.

Kayla has been doing my hair for about three years now and she has always gotten my hair perfect! I've done balayage, highlights, haircuts, (everything!) and whatever I request Kayla always makes it look the best for my hair type. I usually tell her to do whatever she thinks will look best and I always love the result. She's also very receptive, if you ask her to only take an inch off your hair she will only take an inch! Not like many stylists who say they'll take off an inch but then end up taking off three. Despite my hair always getting bleached Kayla always makes sure that it stays healthy and my hair has never looked better!

Kayla is the only person I trust with my hair! I've been getting my hair colored at Hardcore Hair since high school, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Even after a balayage or a bleaching my hair still feels vibrant, soft, and full, thanks to Kayla's expertise. The color is always complimentary, and she is helpful and honest about what color will suit my low maintenance life style, skin tone, and current style. I fly from San Diego to her studio around twice a year because she is WORTH IT! My hair is constantly getting complimented, and the prices are ridiculously reasonable. Always and forever I'll be a hardcore hair customer!

Global done by Kayla!

Wilson did such an amazing job on my hair! Despite the language barrier, he was so accommodating…read moreand made sure to understand exactly what I wanted. I asked for curtain bangs, face-framing pieces, long layers, a V-cut, and a little trim, and he absolutely nailed it! The salon does have translators available, but I was totally fine without one. Wilson was super nice, patient, and attentive throughout the entire appointment. Honestly, I've never felt prettier or more confident after getting my hair done! I'm so happy with how everything turned out. Thank you so much, Wilson!! I highly recommend him and will definitely be coming back!

Disaster. Cut way too much off, ruined my hair, and the experience was awful. See photos for…read morereference ... I haven't gotten a haircut in over a year, so I was really looking forward to this, but this visit was so disappointing. None of the workers spoke English, which meant the translation was poor from the very start. Because of that, they basically did not do at all what I asked for. I explicitly requested to take off 4 inches, but they chopped off 7 inches instead. For reference, my hair was down to my waist almost and straight across so I was looking forward to getting some nice layering and a decent trim. (I attached my reference photo vs what I actually got). My hair that I took so long to grow out is now super short. To make matters worse, the whole styling process felt very aggressive and frustrating. I honestly felt like I was being thrown around in the chair and manhandled. They repeatedly poked me in the face with their fingers when moving around my hair and the comb kept getting very close to my eyes... When I finally saw the results, the layering was so uneven it was shocking. I wish I had a better picture, but when I got home I was so saddened by the haircut that I cried out of despair and started aggressively cutting it myself just trying to fix it. I also still can't get over that I basically have less than half of the hair I started with left. Absolutely do not recommend, terrible experience.

Simple Hair - I stated that I didn't want a root shadow but the stylist insisted. These are the results.

I have never written a review before, but after being a client of Simple Hair for 12 years, I felt…read morelike it was finally time! I started going to Simple Hair in 2014 for Japanese hair straightening, and I've been going back every year since. As I've gotten older and started getting more gray hair, they also help with touching up my roots too and I continue to trust them every time! What really stands out to me is their consistency. After all these years, they are just as professional as they were when I first started going. They're always on time, their standards have remained high, and the quality of their work has never gotten sloppy or gone downhill. That says a lot about a business, especially after 12 years. V and Bella are both amazing. They're knowledgeable, experienced, and genuinely know what they're doing. There's a reason I've stayed with Simple Hair for so many years. When you find people who consistently do great work and who you can trust with your hair, you stick with them. I definitely have!

I've been coming to Simple Hair for almost 10 years now and have loved the experience every time…read more They really have the best quality hair cuts at such an affordable price. Vy really listens to what I want, she always double checks how much I want to cut off and what style. She's so careful and takes her time with the cut to make sure it's perfect. She's such a joy to chat with and I always leave feeling refreshed and happy with my cut :). It is a very busy salon, but I expect nothing less since it's so popular! Book your appointments in advance if you want to guarantee a time. Will continue to keep coming back! :)

After my bestie had been going to esther for 7 years i jumped on the curly hair bandwagon last year…read moreand here i am for perm #2. the last year has been fun styling the first perm she gave and i loved it as it grew in and i even got two trims throughout the year. i love that my hair is allowed to have digital perm (hair-health wise) & it doesn't smell bad! after my appointment i came straight to work and this is the shot after esther styled it! in the after care i'll avoid getting it wet for 2 days and the hardest part is not touching it! but i flip my hair so i'll just try to keep it in ringlet twirls as much as possible! one thing different from my first perm was that my hair was much longer prior to this appt today, and still it sprang up! it's still long so i'm glad i grew it, and looking forward to styling this do once the 48 hr no wash time passes! highly recommend esther even with her wait list!! you can upkeep with deep conditioning your hair while looking forward to the appt (like i did!) the 3 hour appt was enjoyable, she is personable and so knowledgeable, in fact the appt was over earlier than i expected, a total timely professional! thank you esther!

It's been a few weeks now since I got my digital Perm and I…read morehave received so many compliments! I love the look and I love the convenience of it! I love that is super low maintenance and it just makes me feel confident with my hair style. Esther is very good at what she does. The 2-3 month wait list speaks for itself. She doesn't like to take any new clients without an initial consultation. This way she saves you time. She is very honest about if the digital perm will be a good fit for your hair type or not. I am 100% satisfied with my experience!

I've been coming to The Studio for years, even after moving to NYC, so when I was back in town and…read moredesperately needed a haircut, I knew exactly where I wanted to go! I tried Jazz for the first time and she was amazing. I have K-tips in, and she cut my hair to absolute perfection. Exactly the refresh I desperately needed, and I left feeling like myself again! The Studio will always be my go-to recommendation for a hair salon in the South Bay. All the girls are so sweet, and the salon itself is always super clean, spacious, and welcoming.

If you're searching for a new hairstylist, look no further!…read more I found Andi on TikTok/IG and decided to try his services back when he was still in cosmetology school. He took the time to assess my hair and helped guide me through understanding the style I wanted. He did such an amazing job that I followed him here to The Studio. This time, I wanted to try something new and requested a shag haircut with lots of texture. Let me just say, he delivered!!! He even styled it in different ways, both blown out and curled, so I could see how versatile the cut was. Response Time: Quick turnaround. Consultation: Even if you don't know the proper hair terminology, Andi is able to understand exactly what you're looking for with just a few reference photos and your explanation. He'll also be honest if a certain idea may not turn out the way you envision it, which I really appreciate. Feeling like a Pinterest model. My next appointment is already booked!
