I would go visit someone based on multiple sourced reviews, only to be disappointed. This time around, I went to Reddit. Matt had replied to a request for a good haircut, providing a link to his cuts. They were unique, reflecting an artsy vibe, instead of the status quo. It was easy to get an appointment. Matt took his time exploring what I wanted and didn't want. Fortunately he has a preference for razor cuts as do I. Respect for a person who doesn't need scissors to shape the cut first. I He brought me a lovely French press as I had missed my morning dose. Matt is personable, making the wait entertaining as the magic took place. So charming,. My hair was cute on the day of the cut, but I did not capture it. The photos are from the next morning. I got exactly what I wanted and LOVE this hair.

I'm terrible at keeping up with frequent touch-ups (oops) but thanks to Faith my blonde is so low-maintenance. I love how it turned out. She uses great products too.

Parking is just around the corner (like 5 steps) from the salon and everyone was really nice. I'll definitely be back. Thank you!

I've been going to Thao at Hair Society for several years now. She was the first person to ever…read morecolor my hair, back when I still had virgin hair. I remember feeling extremely nervous the first time I lightened my hair, worried about potential damage. Thao guided me through the entire process and reassured me that she would keep my hair healthy while also making sure it remained low maintenance. Over the years, I've gone from dark to light and back to dark again. Each time, Thao has been incredibly professional and patient. I remember sending her numerous inspiration photos, and she was always honest about what was achievable with my hair. Without causing any damage, she successfully lightened my hair without it ever becoming brassy. Keep in mind when you go light, you have to get it toned and maintain your hair or it could potentially get brassy. Thao is very personable and always makes me feel welcomed and comfortable--like she's not just my hairstylist but also my therapist. I constantly get compliments on my cut and color, thanks to her. Whether it's your first time getting your hair done or you've been coloring it for years and need someone new you can trust, I highly recommend Thao! Hair Society recently relocated and is now at Tomahawk Salon, located at 775 West 17th St, Costa Mesa, CA 92627.

Asako, the owner, has always taken such great care of both of us, and I'm so grateful for her kindness and professionalism over the years. The service has always been everything you'd hope for from a salon--warm, attentive, and consistent--and the prices are very reasonable. During my last visit at the end of September, Konami gave me a great haircut and shared the news that Asako will be retiring. I was so sad to hear it! I wish Asako all the best in her next chapter and look forward to continuing to visit Arukas with Konami and Rei for our future haircuts.

Idk what happened but I noticed recently I had hair like David Bowie in Labyrinth. For maybe the…read morelast 10 years I've been getting my hair cut by Asako - the top stylist 1-2x per year with deep conditioning treatment. Over the years it was getting better with massage. The last time was with hot stone. But what I didn't realize or notice was that as time went on, she just kept cutting my hair shorter and shorter until I had a rats tail. To be fair, I used to straighten my hair every day bc I thought it was ok. I'm also over 40 and I've had a child. So my hair is probably naturally thinning anyway. I called in October to make an appointment and was told that Asako is now retired and the deep conditioning treatment is more expensive. I asked what the difference is and Rei told me its just different. I couldn't get an appointment until about a month later. The vibe here is not warm and fuzzy and to be candid it never really was - I always felt the stress in the air. It's hard for me bc I'm pretty loyal and of course want to support my people but dude my hair is ruined. I had to cut my hair short which I haven't done in over 15 years. I've always been clear that I wanted to keep the length. I'm not sure what happened here but I feel disrespected. I always tipped 20%+ which is at least $40 for a hair cut and deep conditioning. Aruka/Asako you need to do better. I hope you take care of yourself.

Even though I only came in for a haircut, she took the time to give me honest advice about my hair. She recommended that I should focus on treating and restoring my hair first, and then come back next time for coloring so the results would look better and healthier. What really impressed me was her thoughtfulness -- she noticed that my roots had grown out unevenly in color, so she went ahead and blended the color to match the rest of my hair. And she didn't charge me anything extra for it, only for the haircut. You can truly tell that she cares about her clients and takes pride in her work. She's not only skilled but also very genuine and attentive. I will definitely be coming back to her again Highly recommend her if you're looking for someone talented, honest, and kind!
