She is great. I have been getting my hair cut by her for about 20 years. I will go to no one else. Mike Kammerzelt read more

Yelena pops immediately! She has talent, charisma, and confidence, exuding a warm personality and an exotic background. She moves like an artist, with scissors and clippers, her brushes and palette. When finished, you'll feel like Odysseus, groomed by Athena. read more

Winner winner! I've had more people cut my hair in the past five years and been disappointed. Not with Yelena, she is a total pro. She oozes personally and kindness and is a pro on top of all that. After my first visit, I am a fan. Next time, when I'm not towing a 10,000 lb boat after the cut, I am having beer like she offers. read more

Yelena is just a wonderful human being that also does amazing Men's cuts and styles. She has her own space in a group salon environment and has created a comfortable escape for an hour while she does her magic!

Schedule an appointment with her and enjoy the best cut you'll ever receive and the little touches she does will make you want to come back again sooner rather than later. read more

Made Man Salon - Yelena gave me the one of the best haircuts I've ever had! - Men's Hair Salons Near Me - Tustin, California

I've been in Orange County for 7 years now and I've never gotten better service from anyone in the whole county. The first time Yelena saw me, she asked me about how I wanted to present myself to the people who are going to care about how I look (by way of conversation). When I came out of there, I got compliments from everyone at work, at home, from my family, etc. The best part about it is that I never had to tell her how I wanted things. She suggests what she knows will look good and I just say yes or no. I knew right away she is a master craftswoman. I've been going to Yelena ever since and I refuse to see anyone else. I'm so happy she struck out on her own. Her new place is swanky! read more

She was amazing. She really cared and knew what she was doing. She told me what is it that she thinks we should do and I agreed. We had "coffee" too... would recommend her 100% read more

Yelena has my complete trust when styling my hair. I have been going to her for several years now and have always received great haircuts from her. She is the 'hair whisperer' as her knowledge of all things hair is truly incredible. She also helps with hair loss issues, color, etc. And, the ear and nose waxing is a must. Yelena sets the standard that all stylists should aim for. She gets a 10+ from me. read more

I'm going to keep this short and sweet. This lady knows how to cut and color hair. As a bonus she's a great person. Enough said.

Yelena is awesome!!!!!!! Such a great master at her craft. I would highly recommend her. I walk out of that seat so happy every time. Her place has such an awesome man cave feeling. Definitely a lifetime customer. read more

Yelena doesn't just cut hair, she treats everyone's hair like a piece of art. She takes her time asking your preferences while listening very carefully, and then follows through with surgical precision. She uses the best equipment and highest end products. Her barber chair is hand made with the finest leather and stitching, not your typical basic vinyl chair that you can't wait to get out of. You will sink into comfort and luxury while enjoying the best half hour of your day. Go treat yourself, you will see the difference immediately. read more

I have been getting my hair cut by Yelena for years, following her when she moved and opened Mae Man Salon, her own shop. She has created a comfortable and inviting space for men to spend 30 minutes to an hour getting their hair, beard, etc. cut and styled just the way they want it. This is no small point, because not only is Yelena a master stylist, she will cut your hair exactly the way you want it cut. read more

Like many others I discovered Yelena at her previous salon years ago. It's a testament to her skill and personality that virtually all of her appointments were from regular customers and not walk-ins. She has passion for what she does and it comes through in the personal attention she gives her clients. I am so happy for her that she made the leap of faith to open her own space, and did such a great job of making it a well decorated and comfortable place. I love the way my hair looks when she works her magic, she knows exactly how to make it look it's best. I wouldn't go anywhere else. read more

I've been going to Yelena since I first moved to California 4 years ago and couldn't fathom having another stylist cut my hair again. Yelena's not only a master of her craft but she has the personality to match. The world would be a better place if there were more people like her in it! She recently opened up her own salon in Tustin (which is totally unique and comfortable) and I highly suggest you give her a shot she's 100% worth it. She has me feeling like I'm hot stuff everytime I walk out her door!! Lifetime customer for sure... Congratulations Yelena!! You are the absolute best! read more

I have been going to Yelena for 2 years now, and can honestly say I couldn't be happier and won't be switching anytime soon. I followed her from her previous salon to her new suite and all I can say is... WOW! It's elegant but comfortable, clean but with character, classy without being aloof. She truly cares about her clients and works tirelessly to make sure you have a fantastic experience each and every time.
