They were able to lighten my hair significantly while still keeping it feeling healthy and not as dead as I expected. The color turned out beautiful, and they really took the time to protect the integrity of my hair throughout the process. I'm so happy with the results and would definitely recommend this salon to anyone looking for a color correction or blonde transformation!

First-time customer here. Made an appointment with Lilly but she's still working on her previous…read moreclient so I had to wait an extra 10-15 minutes. No biggie b/c the place seems clean all around and I was in no rush. When it's my turn, I requested the "textured, two-block with a close fade". Lilly proceeded to pin my hair up, worked the fade down to a 1.5" guard, and then shampooed/conditioned my hair. She seemed very comfortable to talk to during my appointment. However, all the positive energy stopped flowing when I returned back to her chair. She asked me if I wanted a side-part, which was the first red flag b/c a two-block is usually a mid-part. As for texturing, there's barely any scissor work involved; all she did was used the thinning scissor (the one with teeth) in a few places and that's it. Her primary tool was the electric razor which seemed very basic and left me wondering if she'd ever worked on men's hairstyles before. Out the door, I paid $40 for a haircut that my barber could've done a better job at.

I highly recommend Sessions. Kelly has been doing my hair for years. I have a half hour drive to…read moreSessions but I'm not about to change to a closer salon. Kelly is prompt and efficient when scheduling an appointment. She is very skilled at cutting, styling, and coloring my hair. My hair always turns out just the way I like it. In fact, I have received compliments on my hair. Her assistant is great too. She gives wonderful shampoos and ends with a super relaxing massage. Sessions is nicely decorated in a contemporary style with comfy furniture. The plants love it there, too, as they are amazingly healthy. I will definitely continue to be a client of Kelly's for many years to come.

I was a first time customer. Asked for Kelly the owner of a salon as my friend recommended her. The…read moreexperience besides being disappointing was extremely disrespectful. I didn't like what my hair looked like. I told her in between I wanted it to be different and she kept insisted that since she already put product in it that's she can't do anything. So I was like it looks like I had a shower and just towel dried it. I asked for her to at least wash my hair and blow dry it again so I could see what the cut would look like. I kept requesting. Saying that I need to feel good when I leave here but all she said was I can't because i have customers waiting. And then she got so frustrated and was like ok if you're so unhappy just leave. And so I did. I felt so terrible. I finally just got my hair back after having massive hair loss after being sick and for her to disrespect me and my hair that way just felt so bad. And to think it's the owner itself who behaved this way. Feel bad for the others who work there - hope they're good. Regardless never going back there. Hope your experience is better

She also made sure before she did larger cuts that I was comfortable with the length and letting me know how my hair would flow if I went one way vs the other.

I've been coming here for yearssss. I used to have Kelly cut my hair, but then she moved away so I…read morestarted working with Cindy, not sure who I liked better! Cindy is amazing, friendly and I never leave disappointed. Her pricing is way more affordable than these new age barber shops that want an arm and a leg for a simple cut, they make you reserve you apt weeks in advance, and by the time you get there your still going to be waiting around the lobby for 20-40 min after your scheduled apt time. Maybe I just had a few bad experiences with those places but ever since I found beauty cuts I never went back to the normal "barber shop" style places.

When other places have raised their prices, they have slowly gone up with inflation but kept prices reasonable. Service has always been great, they make sure to prioritize your appointment (sometimes a gentle reminder helps) and when things aren't busy walk-ins are welcome. It's a great place for a cut and reminds me of the haircut places in so-cal!

Over the years, I've watched her grow from renting a chair in different salons to accomplishing the amazing milestone of owning her own space. It's been so inspiring to see her success. Jessie is incredibly sweet, selfless, and one of the most personable people you'll ever meet. I'll admit I once made the mistake of going somewhere else, and quickly learned my lesson-- no one compares to her work or the experience she provides. Going blonde isn't a quick process, but Jessie always checks in throughout the appointment to make sure you're comfortable. She truly cares about the health of your hair and is always continuing her education to stay up to date with the best techniques. She also recommends high-quality products to help you maintain your hair between visits. I constantly get compliments on my hair, and it's all thanks to Jessie's talent. If you're looking for someone who genuinely cares about their clients and takes pride in their craft, leave it into the hands of Jessie!!
