    Another great experience with Hiro. I cannot recommend her highly enough- she does a great job and is meticulous. For haircuts and straightening she is the best!

    My hair has been getting out of control and frizzy so I decided to get a perm. Im glad I did because Hiro made my hair feel so sleek and healthy! I have had a couple permanent straightening work done before but this has been the best experience so far! My hair is on the wavy frizzy side and I love the results that i received from the perm after My experience was comfortable and relaxing! I will be back again~

    This is my second time going to Hiro, and I have to say that she does quality work. The first time I went to have my hair permanently straightened, my hair was completely fried. Hiro was a magician and completely revived my hair! She uses a product which she calls hair Botox, which fills in the holes of the broken hydrogen bonds from the straightening treatment. I am truly grateful to find Hiro! FYI, her prices are on the higher end, but she's honest with her pricing and I believe it's worth it!

    Hiro's the one for your hair needs & she actually cares about your hair health. I've been doing yuko straightening for over 5 years now, and I was hooked. But I noticed my hair was getting damaged and dry when I went in to do the treatment at my old salon location, reason the is other stylist use to use HEAT and that is forbidden when you do straightening on your hair, that was the reason my hair was damaging. I decided, to try someone else new and boy was I happy I did. Hiro works one on one with you, only does one persons hair at a time. She also does include a haircut in your hair treatment & process. She's excellent. I found her on Yelp & decided to make the move! My hair is healthy and silky. She takes 3.5-4 hours for the straightening treatment & she also has products like olaplex that is offered discounted. Worth it! She's booked a month out. So text her to find her availability. It's worth the wait. Texting is the best way to communicate with her and she's prompt on returning her messages she also gives you quote prior so You can estimate how much you'll be paying. Lots of parking. Located in Irvine, off culver right next to Target & Happy nails. I like how it's not a huge salon it's separate rooms.

    Circa 2019. A few years ago, Hiro cut my hair. I donated 10 inches to Locks of Love. I'm growing my hair to do it again...

    Wow, time flies. I've been going to Hiro for almost a decade. An updated Yelp review is long overdue! I first found Hiro on Yelp just after my mom passed away from cancer. I asked Hiro to cut my hair so I could donate 10 inches to Locks of Love in memory of my mom. Then, a few years later, I donated again. I will donate again as soon as my hair is long enough. Today, January 19, 2021, I saw Hiro for just a trim. Besides the hair cuts and trims, Hiro is the best stylist in town for Japanese Hair straightening (Thermal Reconditioning). She has over 30 years of experience in Japanese hair straightening, digital perms, cuts and hair coloring. What I love about Japanese Hair Straightening is that it creates a shiny, soft and sleek style; best of all, it's low maintenance. I literally can wash my hair and go. No flat iron, no blow-drying. Hair remains straight when wet and stays frizz-free when humid. My hair always feels so soft as though it's had a collagen boost - well, that's what he said, haha. *wink* Kidding. In all seriousness, it's great for people like me who are always "on the go." It saves me time which I love because working boss bishes like me don't have time or the patience for beauty. Lol. If there's one Asian stereotype we're all very familiar with, it's Asian hair - that all Asian women have the same kind of hair... straight, black, and very sleek. I'm Asian. My hair is isn't straight or sleek. Thick? Yes, my hair is thick AF and gets frizzy AF. LOL. The secret is out! A lot of women like me turn to various hair straightening treatments like Brazilian Blowouts and Japanese Hair Straightening to permanently flatten out the frizziness to a sleek shine. So Brazilian Blowout versus Japanese Hair Straightening? Well, I've had the Brazilian Blowout it doesn't last long, maybe 3-4 months and it left my hair frizzy as it grew out. I also learned that Brazilian blowouts use formaldehyde which is a known carcinogen so I never got another Brazilian Blowout. Note: If your hair has been colored or received other chemical treatments, you're at a higher risk of damaging your hair with thermal reconditioning like Japanese Hair Straightening. (Read my previous Yelp Review). An experienced stylist like Hiro will be able to let you know if your hair is a good candidate for Japanese Hair Straightening. The permanent treatment will last any where from 6 to 12 months. Be warned... Japanese Hair Straightening is a long, labor-intensive process... it will take a few hours.... but it's worth every minute and penny! Trust me and believe me because I've had the cheapo straightening perms that cost around $100 and they freaking suck and ruined my hair. That said, the process of labor of love and amazing results don't come cheap. It's pricey AF. It depends on your hair length and type, but expect to pay between $400 and $500+. It's best to pick a salon and stylist based on experience rather than price. Hiro is professional, friendly and sweet. She is always busy and is booked out weeks/months in advance. She cuts kids' and mens' hair, as well. What I love most about Hiro is that she's honest... she will tell you straight up - just read my previous Yelp review. She made me wait 6-8 months for my first Japanese Hair straightening. I won't go anywhere else or trust anyone else with my hair! If you're looking for the best hair stylist in town, look no further than Hiro's Style!

    I came to Hiromi for a hair cut 6 months ago and loved it. She gave me long layers. I came back for the Japanese straightening due to my frizzy hair. I also had it cut the same day. My hair is so shiny and easy to manage. I really love it.

    Japanese hair straightening. Super shiny. Hair is healthy and looking great. Love it

    Hiro knows hair. I found her on yelp and gave it a go. I've had the Japanese straightening done many times. She's awesome, super meticulous and cares about hair and the quality of the hair. Uses great products. If you're looking for a Japanese hair straightening service, I recommend her. I will use her services from now on!

    Before

    This is my first time going to Hiro. I've been meaning to try the Japanese perm since my hair was in terrible shape. It was dry, tangled, and frizzy -- especially when its humid. I'm glad I stumbled upon Hiro's yelp page and got an appointment with her. She did such a wonderful job with my hair!! She's very thorough with the process and will explain to you how it works. Its on the pricier end, but it is worth the investment as she uses higher quality products!!! My hair has never felt this soft and silky in ages!! Hiro puts in a lot of effort to ensure that her clients hair care needs are fully met. She's an amazing hair stylist, I cannot recommend her enough!!! I can't wait to go back for my next one!!

She also took care in shampooing my hair, gave me a nice scalp massage and offered me a beverage. The entire experience was so relaxing.

During the appointment, the stylist made several comments that felt unnecessary, judgmental, and uncomfortable. Instead of feeling listened to as a client, I felt dismissed and pressured. A salon appointment should feel professional and respectful, especially when the client is paying several hundred dollars for a service. I also did not feel that my concerns were handled with care during the appointment. I felt uncomfortable continuing, but at the time I did not know how to address it directly. Looking back, I wish I had asked to speak with a manager before the service continued. For a salon charging this price point, I expected a much more respectful and customer-centered experience. Clients should not leave feeling upset, uncomfortable, or regretful after paying over $300. I hope management takes feedback like this seriously and provides better training on communication, professionalism, and how to handle client concerns during a service. Based on this experience, I would not return.

Allen is incredibly detail-oriented, and I leave happy with my haircut every single time. I originally planned to grow out my bob after dyeing my hair dark brown from blonde, but I hated the awkward in-between length, so I went back to Allen to refresh it instead. I'm so glad I did. His pricing is very reasonable, and his cutting technique really shows his expertise. Highly recommend booking with him. Thank you, Allen!

The first time I went to Allen was actually to fix my hair from my previous hair person. I was almost in tears because my hair was orange literally the week after I got it done and dropped so much money. my hair felt so dry and looked like I havent gotten my hair done in a year. I tried to tell myself it doesn't look that bad but the more I looked at it, the more upset I got. So I was looking for someone on yelp to help me fix this and came across Moc Hair Studio. The reviews were great and although I was nervous I couldn't stand to look at my hair anymore the way it was so I took the leap of faith and gave it a try. Allen was so informative and let me know what exactly my previous hair person did to make it look like that. He explained what he will do to fix it and throughout the entire process I could tell how meticulous he was. I felt like I was in good hands and after he was done, my hair looked like what I wanted it to look like in the first place!! I was so impressed with his work that I decided the next time I needed my hair done I'm coming back. Fast forward to yesterday.. I wanted a change with my hair so I decided to go back to Allen and see what magic he could work. I wanted to try something a bit different from what I usually go for and I knew Allen could do it but from previous trauma of going to the same person multiple times and never getting exactly what I wanted, I was still scared. Again he calmed my nerves by taking his time and making sure everything looked perfect. I've never been to anyone before where I felt like I was his only customer ever by the way he was taking second third and even fourth looks to make sure the color is right, the hair is even on both sides, and the hair is healthy and not damaged!! I am once again blown away with his work and I cannot recommend him enough!! Thank you so much Allen!!

I read a review that said she'll let you know her honest opinion and I'm so glad because for me personally, I would hate it if I came in wanting something and the hairstylist thinks it's ugly (but is quiet about it) and I walk out feeling regretful that I wanted to try xyz lol. My first haircut came out nicely after we chatted about what I wanted and what she thinks would look best, and she recommended me a brown I should try in the future. Today is that future time. It's my second time here! I came in knowing vaguely what I wanted (Some sort of lighter brown with bangs since I had black hair with no bangs lol). We chatted and then I simply trusted the process. She ended up giving me curtain bangs that can also be a little wispy also, and cut my hair to a length that looked soooo good. There was so much attention to detail when she was cutting too. It was great. For the color, she said that a lighter color might not actually look the best on me and a subtle brown might be better! I was pretty down for whatever she thought looked good so I trusted the process again. Let me tell you... this subtle brown looked so good with the cut. Also, my hair? Soft as HECK. It was kinda gritty before so I was shook when I touched my hair after the appt. She chatted with me lots and also gave me space too. It was a great balance and also she answered my questions!! I always have so many questions and she answered them all for me!! Including... how to style my hair because I suck at those things. I'll take any advice and tips I can get. Price is reasonable for OC too! TLDR; I walked in with messy hair that made me look dead inside and walked out with softer dyed hair AND styling knowledge. If that isn't a win, I don't know what is.
