I've been coming to this salon for about six years, and I can honestly say I wouldn't trust my hair…read morewith anyone else. Pascual, the owner, has created such a welcoming, professional, and friendly salon where every client feels valued from the moment they walk in. Pascual is incredibly talented, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about what he does. He always takes the time to listen to what I'm looking for, offers honest recommendations, and consistently delivers beautiful results. My hair always looks healthy, fresh, and exactly how I envisioned it. I attached a photo of my latest color because I'm absolutely in love with it! The color is beautifully blended, looks so natural, and the attention to detail is amazing. I constantly receive compliments after every appointment. Beyond the amazing hair, the salon is always clean, relaxing, and has such a positive atmosphere. After many years of exceptional service, I can confidently say this is one of the best salons in West Covina. Thank you, Pascual, for always making me feel beautiful and for providing such outstanding care. I highly recommend this salon to anyone looking for a stylist they can truly trust!.

Not too much getting-to-know-you chit chat. Prices were affordable - $30 for a shampoo wash and haircut (more of a trim/cleanup, per his advice. I'm in the growing out part of my journey and was about to ruin progress!) Parking: plenty in public lot.

So glad my co-worker recommended this Salon to me. I've had no haircut for 2 yrs. And since my hair…read morehas been damaged because of hair color and bleach, i wanted to have a nice haircut. I met Mr Fong and his wife, Nicole. They are very friendly and welcoming. Fong took his time cutting my hair like it's an art. I appreciate that he is not in a hurry even tho another client arrives. He knows what he is doing and he can give you the style that you want. I gave him a $20 tip because he deserves it. Very family oriented. The place is not fancy but it's nice because it's not intimidating. Didnt even notice that an hr or more passed by. I dont frequently go to salons. But i really do recommend him and i will be coming back to him.

The owners were so kind and humble and made me feel so special. My hair feels so healthy. I got about 2 inches off with long layers and he took his time to make sure everything was perfect. After my hair was done the owner and his wife took pictures of me. This family run business really made me feel special. I highly recommend them! For a haircut, wash and blowout the total was $65 which was perfect! You won't regret it if you get your hair done by them!

After seeing the low maintenance balayages on Frank's Instagram I excitedly made an appointment to…read moreget my hair done by him last year in 2025. Reservation fee: He required a $50 reservation fee via Zelle, that went towards service. Franks assistant might work on your hair with him and in his place: He used me to train his assistant, Eliana, how to do the balayage with him and also in his place when he needed to tend to another client he was still working on. She was sweet and helpful, and the highlights turned out good under Frank's supervision. He uses a method of teasing the root, spraying it with hairspray, and then applying the lightening mixture, to get that seamless look. Eliana also did my haircut which was unexpected since I booked with Frank, not his assistant. It took her a while to cut it, and it turned out just ok. From what she said she is newer to the industry unlike Frank with many more years of experience. Time: It took about 5 hours for the balayage, toner, and cut. Overpaying at this salon: Another stylist in the salon was rudely talking about how much more she was charging new clients compared to old clients. Frank kept a neutral vibe while she ranted on about not needing anyone if they don't want to pay her higher price. This didn't sit well due to the fact that I paid hundreds more at this salon to see Frank than I have anywhere else to get my hair done. She didn't mention anything about her expenses going up due to inflation, just that she's making so much more from new clients now. The combined total to Frank and Eliana was $562.00 for the cut, balayage, toner and tips to each. I won't be returning as the experience and result was not stellar for the premium price. For the same service, my previous hairdresser in Pasadena was in the mid-high 300s w/tip (and this was after raising her prices a few years ago- it used to be low 300s) and my new hairdresser in Rancho Cucamonga is in the low 300s w/tip.

I originally came in with blonde hair because I wanted to return to my natural color. I was very clear that my goal was a complete color change to a much darker brown/black. I did not come in asking for a temporary gloss, yet I was charged $300+ for what I now understand was essentially a gloss treatment. Within only two and a half weeks, the color had significantly faded and the blonde underneath began becoming visible again. I was then told to return once the color faded -- but realistically, I am now expected to spend another $300+ every few weeks to maintain a color I originally came in expecting to be changed? That is extremely frustrating and, in my opinion, unacceptable. The reason I went to professional stylists in the first place was because I do not trust box dye. I have specifically been warned by stylists about the risks of using it, so I trusted the professionals to recommend and perform the appropriate service to actually accomplish my goal. What concerns me most is that I was never made to feel that a gloss was simply a temporary option that would require repeated $300+ appointments to maintain. Had I been clearly told that the service I was receiving was temporary and that the color would likely fade within a few weeks, I could have made an informed decision about whether that was worth the cost. I trusted the stylist to understand my goal and recommend the appropriate solution -- not to leave me feeling like I have to continually spend hundreds of dollars just to maintain the result I originally requested. Clients trust professionals with their hair, their money, and their confidence. That trust comes with an expectation of transparency about what service is actually being performed, how long the results are expected to last, and what ongoing costs may be involved. I am extremely disappointed with how this was handled and would like the business to take responsibility for explaining why the service I received did not align with the result I specifically came in requesting.
