I was looking for a hair salon that didn't cost a lot for a root touch-up, and I'm so glad I found this little salon! I was able to just walk in, and the lady who helped me was so friendly and took her time. My root touch-up was under $50, and she did a great job! I'm very happy with the results and will definitely be going back every month. read more

Did you know that they have a nail studio now which is literally right next door? It opened 8 months ago and the main lady who does the nails is named Karen. Haven't been to have my pedicure done in a while and my husband actually had gone here 2x now because this place was recommended by our nail lady in the past (Nails by Lanna). As of right now, her price point is $25 for a spa pedicure. Karen did an amazing job. Thoroughly cleaned my nails and feet. Her nail salon is by appointment only so call this number 760-644-0205. During the summer, Karen mentioned that she'll have another lady help her so they can get more customers at that time. Go check her out. Will have to experience the hair studio. read more

Kim's Hair Studio - Spa Pedicure - Hair Salons Near Me - Escondido, California

I am so grateful to have found this hair salon in Escondido. My ground rule is that for Asian hair, it is always best to find an Asian barber. I have stuck to this rule for life and it has never failed me. Kim does a wonderful job with my hair and she is very quick! The price for a male hair cut is also very very reasonable, $18 including tips. The only downside to coming here is that you might have to wait quite a bit. I always call Kim ahead of time to set up a time, but all three times I've been here I had to wait about 30-40 minutes since she is busy with other clients. I honestly don't even know if calling ahead of time would even make a difference at this point. Regardless, Kim does such a good job with my hair for such a reasonable price, I can't really complain about the wait time. read more

Kim's Hair Studio - Got my hair cut and layered today - Hair Salons Near Me - Escondido, California

I Do not recommend this place came in to try a hair cut lady didn't acknowledge me almost if she was mad I politely asked if I can get a haircut and she just said NO ! Really rude Vibe in there was off. read more

I've been coming to Kim's since middle school up to highschool and it's been perfect but this is the worst experience I ever had. I made an appointment with Kim at 11:30am on a Tuesday. When I get there they ask me questions of what I wanted with my hair and she sits me down with another lady. I show them what I wanted and the lady didn't really know what to do she asks Kim, so as she dyes my hair to get rid of the pink we go back to the chair to cut more hair, but she ends up cutting and cutting again. Once it looked like a bob I told her I wanted layers just the like the photo but she cuts it even more. She's a sweet lady don't get me wrong but hairstyling isn't her special suit. She had Kim try to fix it but no matter what happened it just ended up shorter than I wanted and the other lady nervously laughed because she kept saying I wanted layers, which is true but not like a guy haircut. I have a good reason to cry my hair was long and thick and I waited for 2 years to get it cut again. As much as I love getting my hair done here I won't come back again. read more

been coming here a few years-was recommended. Kim is an excellent colorist and highlights. Ive paid more and gotten less at other salons. she always picks the best color even if I am not sure what color is best. Lee does great color also. Relaxed shop, I like coming here. read more

This place doesn't even deserve a rating!! They are rude!! I took a picture and I could see she wasn't doing what I wanted. I asked her if she wanted to see the picture again and she snapped at me " I know how to do this hair style. Well I left with a cut I hated. read more

Great hardworking caring people. The quality is amazing , thanks for helping me stay up on my style and color

I have been coming to have my hair highlighted, colored & trimmed for about 10 yrs. Always the best cut, color & lowlights. When I leave, my hair looks beautiful. Always professional & friendly. 5 stars! read more

okay so I got a haircut here couple months ago and before that my hair was already long, thick and growing nicely. All I asked for was a trim and a v cut. She did not take her time and immediately grabbed a shaver to make a v. Ever since I came here my hair doesn't grow and isn't as thick anymore. It keeps falling off and just feels weird. I'm not sure what what did they to my hair or what products she used. Would not recommend this place at all, just spend the extra dollars on somewhere that will give you what you want. Learned my lesson. You get what you pay for here. 0/10. read more

Kim's is an awesome, smaller hair salon with great products, services, and pricing for children, men, and women! I've been coming here for 10+ years and she is definitely worth the wait. She is such a sweetie and great at her craft! You'll catch her juggling and multi-tasking as she gets slammed, but she certainly has so much talent and is worthy of a visit. I love her recommendations and advice, and she is a fantastic hair stylist along with her brother who works here as well. read more

Compare to other regular hair salon, Kim's hair is economical price. For the guy likes me will be happy. Idk about the ladies. My mother likes there. She did the very curly perm with very short hair. I'll go there again. read more

My coworker and I were going to a hairstylist which was a bit highly priced and so her daughter recommended her to Kim Hair Studio. She looked really great when she had her hair done and she told me to try Kim Hair 'studio out. I made an appointment and she touched up and trimmed my hair. She is really amazing. I was waiting for my colors to settle in and she was cutting a woman who has long thick hair. She was snipping here and there and finally done. The lady was happy with her cut and I was impressed when she only asked for a small amount for the cutting. People were coming in and out of the Salon. Multi tasking, cutting, coloring, blowing hair and making phone calls appointments as well. She asked for only $40 For my hairdo. I highly recommend her and her brother who works with her. Thank you Kim! read more

Kim is such an incredible hair stylist. I switched to her last year and I can never go back. Every time she cuts my hair I feel so much better about myself, because she always does it how I want. Not only that she also offers waxing facial hair too! So I'm able to get two things done at the same place by the same person. read more

I have to give such kudos to Kim and the wonderful job she did on my hair! It was a super busy day, we had crossed signals as to my time and she worked me in to do a haircut and highlight. It's been 3 weeks and it still looks fabulous!! And it was less expensive than other places I have gone. Thank you Kim! I recommend you highly!!! read more

Been coming to Kim for more than 6 years now. Her hands are magic and she is fast. She always does a great job and knows exactly how to cut it. She has been cutting my 6 year old daughters hair too. read more

Ive been going to Kim for about 8 years and I feel bad I have never given feedback before. Where do i start... shes really nice, responds back in a timely manner, flexible w time, her rates are super reasonable ... and on top of that shes really good. I have short hair and its easy to mess up short hair but she cuts my hair w such precision and Im done in 15min. Yes her salon is no frills, but thats my preference anyways. No wonder shes been in business for 20 years. Thanks Kim! read more

Known her from a Friend. And ever since i always go to her for my Highlights. Always get a lot of compliment.

Absolutely Amazing Kim! She is doing the best haircut i have been ever have for such a good price! She is sp sweet and professional she is not talking much but instead doing her job just perfect! Thank you Kim for been such a hidden treasure in Escondido:) read more

I love kim's Salon she does a very good job , she's very sweet person you might have to wait a little because she does have many clients but it's worth the wait I been to Kim's for over 7 yrs & she's always done a great job read more

I've been coming for years, You would think the loyalty that a customer has for a small business would be the same loyalty from the owner. I went in to have a dark Brown throughout my Hair. It was very clearly communicated and I had asked multiple times if it would be dark Brown being that the color looked black. Turns out I was right it's black I called the owner in which she in which she kept telling me that it was dark Brown last night made no effort to try to fix and resolve the issue. Unfortunately I will no longer be returning. read more

Horrible horrible horrible!! You really need to learn that when you make an "appointment" with someone that doesn't mean you take 3 more walk-ins before hand. Sounds more like greed than wanting to give great service. So long to my cheap haircuts. I won't be returning! And unless you have "20" minutes but really over an hour to wait for a 15 minute cut then this is your place. read more

I chose this salon after reading the reviews. Kim did a nice job and she is a good colorist however I wanted silver highlights & darker silver base or lowlights. I brought a photo of the results I wanted. What I got was blonde on blonde over my natural light brown color. It's very pretty just not what I asked for. I'm giving 4 stars because she is very skilled. This has happened tat other salons. Despite how talented the stylist, I end up with what they choose instead of my choice. I'm at a loss for how to ensure the stylist follows my photo example or description. If I'm asking for something they can't do or if my color choices aren't available I'd rather be informed up front rather than disappointed. read more

Kim has been doing my mom, sister, and I's hair for 5 plus years. Kim does a fantastic job with her cuts, styling, etc. She is always so welcoming and kind! She is a very busy women with her clients, but knows how to multi-task gracefully. Overall, I have always had great experiences here. Kim does wonders! I have never thought to look anywhere else. read more

Everytime I get a haircut there Kim and her brother do a great job for a great price.

Kim does descent work, but her lack of business sense and understanding of customer service in this solely service based industry far outweighs any positives. She routinely blows off appointments to take $10 walk-ins and has absolutely no shame when it comes to keeping you waiting. Today was probably the 4th or 5th time I've walked out on her because of this; each time telling myself it would be the last. I only returned today because I got a $150 gift certificate good for highlights, style & waxing. Per usual my appointment started late. Kim kept me under the lamp with chemical in my hair way too long to do a cut & style for another lady, left me in a chair with soaking hair for 40 minutes to take another cut & style who walked-in mid appointment and then had me camped out in the waxing room for over 20 minutes while she made small talk with a solicitor. I had been at the shop for nearly 2 1/2 hours and finally had enough and walked out without the waxing. This is definitely THE LAST TIME for me; you couldn't pay me to go in there. Do yourself a favor and spend a few extra bucks at a real salon or spa to get the kind of customer service you deserve, I know I will. read more

Kim does an amazing job! I've been coming to her for years and I'm ALWAYS satisfied.
