My new look
Carol T.

It was a rainy day so I thought I needed to leave early from home so I can be on time. I was at least 15 minutes earlier than the said appointment, Jay was helping the other client but he was very polite to have me sitting down at the waiting area. 5 minutes later I was called for the hair cut. He asked what style I would like and I showed some pictures I saved on my phone and he was getting right into it. Even though we didn't communicate too much, Jay was very concentrated at getting at the style I like. Less than an hour, dah dah, a fresh new look. Thank you, Jay! I will come back for the perm you recommended!

Hair down
Stephanie S.

I've always loved getting layered haircuts as a kid, but the older I got the more my hair was becoming a weird mixture of straight/wavy/curly-ness & it got harder to maintain. I got into a love/hate relationship with my hair. This year I decided to try a new hair salon and after 5 years of getting it done myself in my bathroom with school scissors, I finally have the haircut I've wanted to achieve! There was a bit of a language difference, I didn't know how to explain my wavy hair inconsistency on my head to the hair stylist so I just asked for a layered cut and showed some references off google. We tried to agree on a cut but honestly I have no idea how to ask for what I wanted thankfully I was very well taken care of by the stylists in the salon and I didn't even go over my $50 spending limit! They styled it for me although I didn't ask for it, I think i just said yes to what the guy had asked me without wanting to be rude and ask him to repeat himself for the 4th time nonetheless, I felt brand new and felt so confident with my new haircut, thank you thank you thank youu!!!!!!!

I was really anxious of having a haircut again after having an awful experience at another place. I got ugly choppy uneven layers and my hair was a mess. I took my time and I choose to visit this salon. Omg I can begin to tell you how awesome experience I had. Booking my appointment was really easy despite me not speaking Korean at all and just a bit of English. I came a couple of minutes earlier and my appointment started right on time. My hair wash was super relaxing, their products smell amazing and didn't feel harsh on my scalp and hair. I was hesitating on which style to choose cause I didn't want to sacrifice my hair length but my hair was in an awful state. The owner and the other hairstylist assessed my hair and gave me options to fix my hair without completely compromising my length. After I decided, the owner started to cut my hair. He's quiet and focused but polite. He was really efficient and you can totally tell his experience and technique. The styling was also amazing, he didn't pull my hair at all or unnecessarily burned it, which I appreciate cause I have thin and fragile hair. I don't speak Korean at all and I can communicate in English but it's not my first language. I don't feel there was any issues in understand each other. I never felt unwelcome or uncomfortable despite being the only one that couldn't speak Korean. Bonus point: you can have water, coffee, tea and cookies at the snack bar :)) Ty guys for saving my hair

I wanted to changed my hairstyle, and this Kara Hair salon was definitely one of my top choices. Salon is very clean and bright. You must wear a mask during this COVID time. Jay is a great stylist for both female and male, and he is willing to listen to your wants. He will also give his recommendation.

Texts to schedule an appointment with Kara Hair
Stephanie D.

Attempted to make an appointment three times...twice by phone call and once by text. Employee who answered the phone kept telling me they'd "text me to schedule an appt" but guess who never contacted me. After waiting a whole day, I texted them first to try and make an appointment again and I got ghosted after 3 responses?? I had my friend who spoke Korean try to schedule an appointment and they responded to my friend but not to me.

Jay is very skilled, fast, and efficient. We got our balayage done together and it took ~5 hours to get both done at the same time. The results were exactly what we wanted and we are very happy if you are thinking of getting a balayage done, do not hesitate to contact this salon because they know what they're doing. They are friendly and the pricing is very fair for the service.

Ive never gotten a perm done before, so I made a request on yelp and they responded within 10 minutes. The workers there were very friendly and they did a great job with the perm for only $85. Considering most places charge over $120 its a great deal. My only complaint is that I was waiting a long time while in the chair for them to start but they were nice and apologized for it.

No complaints! Everyone was very nice and the owner took the time and put in the effort to do my hair how I wanted it. I went from grown out black/dark brown hair to a balayage.

This is my new go to place for hair cuts. Jay does an amazing job and gives great hair cuts. They are very safe to go to during covid 19 social distancing and makes you feel safe and comfortable while you are comfortable and peaceful getting a nice hair cut. 5 yelp stars for me and thank you to Jay and staff for running a top notch establishment!

After

Just perfect! This was my first time here and Jay is absolutely amazing. He knows exactly what he is doing and this was my best haircut by far. The staff is so friendly and I love my new hair. I will definitely be coming back to Jay. 10/10.

Jay spent 4 hours to make my hair look exactly the way I wanted( that's with hair dying, highlights, and haircut).

I chose this salon as my place to get my first perm done. My stylist was Min. He and another female…read moreworker were nice and answered all of my questions well. I was just really curious on what happens. It wound up taking ~4 hours where I got my hair washed, cut, primed, bathed in solvent, and then curled with the little rollers. I definitely felt cared for, but 4 hours is def a long time. I brought a book and phone charger in case I was bored. The salon inside, however, is extremely cold. I think it was like 62 degrees inside, and I got my perm done in the summer when it was hot (and I still felt that it was freezing). There's a bunch of stylists inside and people who help prepare the clients. For a digital perm, it was ~$200, and if you pay with cash, you can avoid the 3% credit card fee. They also do a traditional booking system where you call them and you get written down for an appointment on a paper book. Overall, I loved how my hair turned out. It was very luscious and soft, but I wish when I made the appointment, maybe there could have been guidelines of what not to do leading up to the appointment, same with post hair care especially for new timers. I wound up using a notes app of how to care for it. I wish I had more curls in my hair, but now I know for next time and how to ask for it to be styled. Great experience generally! This place is located inside of a busy plaza with lots to do, so if you're ever waiting on someone here, you can go to Teso or get boba/food/coffee -- any type of idle shopping!

WORST HAIRCUT EVER…read more Cindy cut my hair way too short. I asked for 2 inches, at most 2.5 inches off. I walked out with 4 inches off my length and I cried in my car after leaving. I wore my glasses today so I had to take them off during my haircut so I was unable to see but how did TWO INCHES turn to FOUR?!? My long hair that was close to my bottom is now up above mid back. I kept emphasizing I want to keep my hair LONG. Be firm on your boundaries and what you want. I usually get my haircut once a year and now this makes me never want to even cut my hair ever again. How hard is it to just listen to what the client want?! I haven't had hair this short since grade school. I've never felt so ugly and I hated that I had to pretend this was ok. Currently looking up hair extensions now. So disappointed.
