It's been hard for me to find someone who can add volume to my fine hair. Koji didn't rush and was very careful and considerate with my hair from the shampoo to the cut and styling. I like that it's quiet in the salon since Koji only uses one chair in the salon. And it doesn't have the strong chemical smell that gives me a headache :) Parking was available in the small lot beside the building. I picked up lunch after in the area and it's nice to be near the beach. I highly recommend! Price is reasonable too. Make sure to call for an appointment.

Krystal NAILED it. I was recommended to her by someone local in a Facebook group. I am trying to…read moregrow out my gray and had an obvious gray to colored hair line in my hair that I was definitely tired of. I wanted to blend the gray into the bottom of my hair to look a bit more natural. Originally, the full idea would have a bit out of my budget, but Krystal came up with another idea to do some 'baby' highlights (highlighting just the top layer of my hair) to pull the grayish color through. So we kept my gray on top, added some highlights on top (which she toned gray, almost blue, kinda cool, certainly not orange!!) and then dyed the bottom of my hair to match my natural dark brown/black hue. Not only is the color amazing (both the gray and the dark brown to match my hair) but one of the best blowouts/styles I've ever gotten, with just 10-15 minutes of drying (I have coarse, frizzy, wavy hair). She gave me beautiful waves in front just with the blowdryer. Amazing. I wish I could have my hair look like this every day. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone. The salon was also very cute and welcoming and there are a few off street parking spots next door. My total even came to less than I was expecting.

I loved her pics on Yelp and Instagram so I reached out via text. I'm frankly surprised by the previous reviewer's experience as Natalie responded to me right away. She asked for photos of my current hair and inspo for my cut and we set up an appointment for the following week. Her salon is a SUPER cute and intimate space (no longer in the Phenix salon!) on PCH. Natalie was ready on time and was extremely thorough with the cut. She explained everything she was using, her technique, and asked lots of questions. She was also just really fun to chat with! I left SO impressed and my hair feels wonderful (I needed the postpartum hair chop - LOL). While she didn't color my hair (this time!) she used a product that oomphed my highlights so they looked refreshed and vibrant. Ill definitely be back to see Natalie for my cut and color needs and would highly recommend her!

He services his scissors in Japan semi-annually just to maintain his equipments in great condition. This helps prevent split ends and other hair troubles I used to frequently encounter. Nori also uses a scale to formulate the hair colors. You can feel assured you won't come out of the salon looking funky. Appointments can be made online directly from his website, or by emailing/texting him directly. He is very flexible and accommodating with appointments. Lastly, parking can be found adjacent from the salon building structure. You can also charge your EV for free too. Amex accepted and drinks and clean environment offered. Can't recommend Nori enough.

I went in to get a perm and cut…read more The vibe was very nice. Very respectful. His space was very clean and tidy with what seems, state of the art tools. I have had fine hair all my life, but even still my hair has always taken well to perms, always. Even the last one over a year ago. The only complaint I had was the use of larger rods which made my hair more wavy curl than curly. Nori had said that my hair wouldn't take well to a perm, but because I know my hair's history, I asked him do it anyway and he agreed to do it. First he used a more gentle solution because of my pervious perm over a year ago (did not ask if I wanted that), and I didn't know until he was already in the process of using it on my hair... my hair needs the stronger solution. Second he did a loose curl wrap instead of a tight curl wrap. With fine hair (or at least my hair) it needs to be curled up against the scalp. I think he did this because it was a hot treatment perm (which I never had before) vs a cold treatment perm. He didn't give an option. So the perm came out ok on the bottom because it already had the previous perm that was there from a year ago. But the top part of my hair had virtually no difference. If you have fine hair and looking to get a perm, I would not recommend Nori. I'm sure he does really well with all other hair services. To his credit, the perm itself, aside from the lack of curl, was a healthy perm (did not harm my hair) and he did give a very nice cut prior to the perm process. I think if he would have explained his treatment process and how it differed from what I had previously experienced, that may have helped my decision to go elsewhere, before wasting over $200 I had taken a year 1/2 to save. Again I think he probably does really well with the other services he provides. I just think for women (or men) with fine hair, you may want to think twice if you're looking to get a perm.

Unfortunately not only was the customer service horrible but so was the service provided to me. While expressing what I wanted to get done I confirmed with Chohee if it was achievable. She said absolutely! I was thrilled and excited and said lets do it, we agreed on a price $400. I thought it was a bit pricey but said I deserve to treat myself. I was sitting in that chair for 4 hours. My phone died. I was hungry and thirsty. No one asked if i needed anything or check up on me. She was attending other clients and overall I felt neglected throughout the whole process. Despite the poor treatment and feeling of abandonment, i still had high hope that I would receive my new look and it would all be worth it. I stayed calm, kind and patient. She then revealed the final result and it was not what I had asked for. I pulled up the reference picture and said to her "I was going more for this look, is this it or were you still working on my hair?" No attitude, no negative tone, just a question. She suddenly got defensive and said she did not appreciate me saying "is this it?" And that she felt insulted. I apologized to her and said "that wasn't my intention it's just that I've been sitting here for hours expecting a different result that we discussed and agreed to." She said if I wanted that look then it would be another $300 and probably another 2 hours. I was shocked. She changed the price from what we discussed and at this point I felt like she was trying to take advantage of me. As Chohee was finishing the final steps of my appointment she was extremely cold, and unpleasant to be around. I felt VERY uncomfortable. I felt like i was beings reasonable and accommodating the whole appointment and to be treated so poorly really disappointed me and made me feel so small. Definitely won't be coming back here.
