Michelle's Hair Salon - Hair Extensions Near Me - Stanton, California

I used to come here regularly when it was a one-woman business, and she was really great; and today I went in for a cut with the new-to-me staff (a male manager + 2 female workers). I'm mixed-race with Asian features but with naturally curly/wavy hair, and I had been growing it out for around a year. I brought several reference photos of the shorter style and silhouette that works with my natural hair texture. There was plenty of length and volume for them to work with. I make every effort to be a good customer because my husband was a stylist and taught me all the things he appreciated from clients, such as reference photos, using terminology that stylists understand, even using drawings to illustrate the cut/style from different rotations. The woman looked at the reference photos, and I told her that I prefer this kind of messy, punk style of medium-length bob because it works with my hair texture. I have cowlicks all over the place too, which is complemented by the messy style. She proceeded to comb out my curls, then blow dry and cut them. And then she kept blow-drying my hair with high heat to force it to be straight, and it looked so bad, as my natural texture was clearly rebelling. I was so disappointed, and, because of the shorter length, I switched gears and drew a basic angled/wedge cut and asked to please just cut it that way instead. She cut some more, then forced it to be straight again with even higher heat, and the result was just a shorter version of the original bad cut she gave me. At this point, I was so sad and asked to use their bathroom, where I wet my hair to get some of my natural texture back and tried to pin it with my barrettes that I was wearing earlier. I was near tears, and then the male manager asked if I was okay, and I said I was trying to be. He offered to fix it, and I sat down in his chair. He told me that the reference photos wouldn't work with my hair because it has to be "designed" that way by curling some of the sections. I told him that my hair is already naturally curly, so he told me that since my curls start at the root, then I would need to get a straight perm because the photo shows a "designed" style that's not my texture. Then he said that style wouldn't work anyway because I don't have enough length. He recommended cutting off more length, and I said that's fine since that's all that could be done. I was really near tears at this point because it's literally my hair texture that I clearly walked in with that I had been growing for around a year to give a stylist plenty to work with. I told him that I don't ever blow-dry my hair, because air-drying works better with my texture, and I just wanted a style that works WITH my curls and waves, not force it to be straightened. And the "designed" style in the reference photos is basically my natural morning hair - which is why I brought the photos in the first place, because I told him that my hair routine is easy: just wash and go. He cut my hair shorter, and now it looks kind of like a pixie cut that's grown out some. I was tearing up when I looked in the mirror. He said he wouldn't charge me the $25 for the cut, and I offered him $20 for trying to fix it. After some back and forth, he really, really wanted me to keep my money, and I thanked him again for trying, and I let him know that I know my hair will grow back. When I got to my car, I cried. I cried all the way home, and I cried some more when I went inside and told my husband about getting 3 haircuts just now. When I showed him the reference photos, he said, "You've had this haircut before -- that's your natural texture. It's not hard to do a bob haircut -- or a wedge cut -- with your texture." It's now 2am, and I'm in bed feeling so horrible about the three haircuts and having my hair forced to be straightened unsuccessfully and not at all what I asked for, and for wasting a year's worth of growth with virgin hair: no dye; no blow-drying, no heat. Until my hair grows back, I'm stuck with a haircut that I dislike so much I don't even want to look in a mirror, truly. I'm so sad and disappointed by this experience. Even though the manager tried to fix it as nicely as he could, I'm not going back here again. read more

Henry greeted me as I walked in and I waited for him to finish up on someone else's hair. I have long hair but a lot of split ends. He cut just enough to get rid of split ends and he kept the length long. I was very happy with his haircut. He was friendly and funny too. Thank you Henry. read more

Dont ask too many questions or they will hang up on you. The guy who works at the salon hung up on my friend! How rude!!!

Popped in for a haircut! No wait on a Sunday afternoon! He was very friendly and knowledgeable! Face framing layers were a must with a good trim all around! Very happy with my results! Thank you again! read more

service is great! we love quality of service, their area is clean, and purely vibe!! we'll come back for sure. read more

Michelle's Hair Salon - love the way they cut and curled my hair. we'll come back for sure - Hair Extensions Near Me - Stanton, California

Absolutely the worst experience of my life. I am so upset. My long thick hair was butchered today by someone who didn't speak or understand English. Why would you let a customer sit in the chair of someone who pretends to understand you when they don't. I just wanted layers and curtain bangs. She cut off all my hair I was growing for nearly 2 years and all I want to do is cry. This was the most devastating hair experience of my life. The guy who runs the place let her cut my hair without warning. Save yourself the heartache and disappointment... they really don't know how to do hair. They also will not listen to what you want. read more

I thought it was time to finally cut my hair so I just came in for a quick trim. I have long thick hair and she said it would be $20. Pretty reasonable prices. I didn't have an appointment but she takes walk ins. I waited around 10 minutes and she helped me out. I asked for layers and to have around 4 inches off. She work pretty quickly but the layers didn't seem very even. Each side the layers were a bit off but she did cut it the length I wanted. I'm not completely happy with the cut but for the cheap price and for how quick it was, I would say it's just okay. read more

She is always amazing! I only come to her for My haircuts and colors. She treats everyone like family and will always be honest I love her. read more

I'm a regular here. Great place to get a haircut for guys. Also, really affordable and they actually have progressed with the times and accept credit cards especially for us millennials who never carry cash. Just make sure to consider that she does take a merchant fee hit when running the cards so be mindful of that when tipping. But you'll be more than satisfied with your cut. I mean I'm not a stiff when it comes to precise details of my haircut, but I also like it to be clean and faded correctly. Michelle and her barbers all do really well for me. I always look sharp when walking out of there. So if you're tired of dropping $20-$30 bucks for some hipster haircut bar with dudes that barely acknowledge you with a headnod, this is the place to go. read more

An extremely fine establishment with impeccable service. Great for content as well. I was surprised as to how friendly the service was, especially in lieu of my autistic asian friend harassing the staff. They handled all 400 pounds of him very well. 5 stars. read more

The lady's are super friendly, they do really nice work , the salon is very clean , yes you have to wear your mask , temperature check , closed on Sunday and closed at 6:30pm and Saturday at 6:00.. walk in welcome.. we come from far to get a nice haircut read more

She's a one woman business from what I see. She's so kind and she takes her time on hair... Well from what I've experienced, she took her time on my hair from washing to straightening. I'd definitely recommend. Book an appointment it may be busy. I just so happen to walk-in and nobody was there... I was lucky. read more

Michelle, the owner, is extremely friendly. Even after having not visited her for 2 years (was keeping my hair long), she still remembered me. There were a couple of customers before me, but it moved quickly. She cut my hair super quick but did a great job doing it. I received a lot of complements on my new hair cut. Shampoo, conditioner, haircut and blowdrying for $12...such a terrific deal. Note that long or thick hair may be charged extra. Overall, terrific experience. Only con is she keeps trying to sell the shampoo and conditioner that supposedly "promotes hair growth." Side note: the salon does accept credit card read more

I was around the corner from the salon today and I decided to go in for a blowout and haircut I was very pleased with the prices and the staff was very professional Luna assisted me and did a fabulous job thank you so much now I am ready for my one year anniversary read more

Michelle's Hair Salon - Blowout and haircut - Hair Extensions Near Me - Stanton, California

I wanted balayage/ombre with a tiny trim. My hair is shoulder-length. I showed Michelle the picture and she said she could do it. Yay! I was in and out in an hour and it was super simple. The price for a trim was a little steeper than I had hoped (just wanted like 1/4 of an inch off the bottom layer to get rid of dry ends and it was $20), but Michelle was super sweet and did a nice job. My hair soaks up bleach and lightens drastically with sun exposure, so I'm glad it's subtle. Overall, pleasant experience and Michelle is a very kind lady! read more

Michelle's Hair Salon - Subtle coloring - Hair Extensions Near Me - Stanton, California

Michelle is amazing! I was super nervous to get my haircut since I've never been here and wasn't sure if she could cut it the way I wanted. I wanted it to be shoulder length and I showed her a picture to copy. I told her I wanted some layer because my hair is so thick. She asked if I wanted high, shorter layers or low layers and I said low layers. One thing I have to complain about is that she charges extra for a blow dry, so i couldn't really tell what the end result looked like since my hair was wet. So I drove straight home to blow dry and see if it was the cut I wanted. I was surprised she did a good job and I loved it! She was working really quick too which shows how skilled she is. My shampoo and cut probably only took 30 minutes altogether! The other day I curled my hair to see how it would look and I loved it even more! Not sure if I can trust her yet with dyeing my hair, but for haircuts I will definitely come back! :) Just make sure to get the haircut from Michelle and not her other employee. read more

Saddened to hear that Michelle is no longer working here. Hopefully we will see her here in passing... My family has known Michelle since she was working at Fantastic Sams before opening her own salon. Ican only speak from my experience with her and she was always great at cutting hair. ** There are new prices for 2019 ** I'll update later when I'm finished getting my haircut by another hairstylist here. read more

Michelle is great! I came here for the first time and was very happy with the friendly environment and attention I received. I loved how she layered my hair. I definitely recommend this place. read more

Best hair salon in CA. They may be a big corporate name brand but the employees here have obviously been doing this shit for years. Even hooked my autistic son up multiple times even though he brought shame on our famiry read more

I came here ON MY WEDDING DAY only because the reviews were decent and I was in a rush to find a place near home to do hair and make up. For $70 I felt like an overdone clown. Plus the 100s of bobby pins in my hair that didn't do anything to support the so called hairstyle she did. I went home to end up removing the make up and having someone at home to do a wayyyy better Job and fixing the nest of bobby pins in my hair and making it look duable. Nonetheless, I won't ever come here again. I won't ever recommend. read more

Michelle has always been very pleasant & she is great at cutting hair. My mom has been going to her for about 2 years & she's cut my hair a few times. I've always been satisfied. This past time that my mom went she planned to get her usual with Michelle, & like always she tries to juggle several clients at one time & if she can she'll pass it to her employee. Who she's training, who knows for how long, but is the worse. (Yes she's the same lady other people have complained about) So my mom happens to get her & she colors her hair & recommends a shine coating that costs $20. (don't recommend because it did nothing to her hair) My mom goes with it. When she's done she still has a lot of gray hair & tells that lady & she goes it's ok... my mom is like no it's not ok you need to fix it. Again she says its ok. So my mom just let it go. So when she comes home (I wish I had taken pictures), I was so disappointed with what I saw that I made my mom go back later that week to get it fixed. Fast forward to when we went back. Michelle started saying that she had warned her that the color which happened to be lighter then the one she usually gets, would leave her with some gray hair. This never happened because Michelle didn't do the coloring. Lol So my mom called her out on that. Then she realized it. Frustrated, I tell Michelle, why would she pay so much for a half ass job? The point is to get rid of the gray hair, do you really think it's ok to send a customer home like that? It sucks because she wasn't the one who did her hair but it's crappy to know that she would hire someone with such lack of skill. Mind you my mom kills it with a $7 box of Garnier, but not the point. She didn't apologize on her employee's behalf & simply said that my mom could come back another day. My mom's like that's fine I'll be taking my business elsewhere from now on. What do you know, then she makes time. Pretty ridiculous. Another time... There's a stamp card she gives out, my mom has 2. 1 is about a row & a half in, the other card completely filled for a free cut. I tell Michelle I want to use it & she says it has to be used on a next visit. Why when my mom is already paying for her haircut & color? She then tells me to have a seat in the styling chair. At this point I tell her I don't want the cut. She acted surprised. Greedy much? She's lost a long time client. read more

I've had my hair cut by Michelle since I was a Toddler. She always knows what I want. I've never had a bad haircut here. I know that this place is pretty popular for perms. I always see someone getting one there when I go. Come early in the morning on weekends if you want to beat the mid day rush hour. read more

I like going to Michelles here, it's my dad's friend wife who owns this store named Michelle. She does a great job at cutting my hair the way I want it exactly. I always go for the no 2 in the bike and a faux hawk and it comes out the way I like it and 10 dollars is a good deal. She makes you feel comfortable and is always friendly. read more

I went here for hot oil treatment cos its near my house. First, my hair is shoulder length so i thought its short but the lady told me its long. Fine, i just wanted to have the treatment. The lady that assisted me, shes great, but after all the treatment, the lady asked me if i want my hair to be blowed dry, i definitely said yes cos i dont wanna go out that my hair is so wet. Then when she started blow drying my hair, Michelle told me that its additional $10, like really??? Not good customer service.. Sorry read more

If I could give this place less then a star I would! PLEASE DON'T LISTEN TO THESE REVIEWS! I DID AND SHE GAVE ME A TEASED hair sprayed MESS ON MY WEDDING DAY! it was only 35$ so I should have guessed it was too good to be true. It was so bad and she didn't listen to anything I had to say before or after she "styled" my hair. She was pretty rough and unreasonable. TRUST ME THESE OTHER REVIEWS HAVE TO BE FAKE! This was the worst experience ever. I tried to explain it's not what I wanted and she pretend to not understand what I was saying and kept saying in perfect English "you have to pay now" but I had a full on conversation with her just the DAY before. I will post pictures of what she gave me and honestly you can judge for yourself. I'm really not a picky person or an unreasonable customer but she DID such a horrible job I had to say something. read more

Michelle does a great job at cutting hair, you just have to tell her exactly what you want. And you can't beat the price... I have long thick hair and my haircuts are $20. You can walk in or make an appointment and it's very clean. However I do not recommend getting your hair colored there. They don't really know what they're doin when it comes to color and highlighting. And whatever you do, don't let the other girl with the blonde hair touch your hair! She does horrible work. Always go to Michelle! read more

My first time here, I came because of the reviews and the salon is down the street from my job. I LOVE how Michelle cut my hair. She's the best. I had her cut it in long layers since she cut it it has volume shine and my hair looks so much healthier. I'm happy I came to her. read more

This is my second time going here. First time I called and made an apt. Came in. No other customers were there. Got a hair cut right away. This time I called made an apt. Came in on time. Both ladies were finishing up other customers so I sat down and waited. A teen age kid walked in and sat down. One lady was doing another ladies curls and getting her ready for the dome hair dryer. Michelle just finished up a hair cut. When she was done she called me over. I got up and started walking over. Then she asks the teen kid what he was here for. He said just a hair cut "but if it's going to take long I half to go". Michelle said oh no it's not going to take long. He said "no it's ok I'm actually not supposed to be here. I just dropped in" and he was about to leave. (btw the kid was not being rude. I have nothing against him)Then Michelle, as I am standing there waiting for her to tell me where to sit said to the boy "I go wash your hair right now". She took him back washed his hair then sat him down to cut his hair. She looked at me and said I could wait and it wont take long. ARE YOU SERIOUS MICHELLE????? I was there first, I made an appointment and just because you don't want to loose a customer you pushed me to the back. Thankfully the other lady just put the other customer under the dryer and called me over so I didn't wait to long. I just can't believe Michelle did that. What she did was very unprofessional and straight out rude! You may have gotten that one customer that day but you just lost a customer who was planning on making this my main salon. read more

Even though this is a "salon', I highly recommend this for guys. I've been getting my haircut here for years. Only thing to do is call ahead and make sure there isn't a long wait. Otherwise, she knows how I like it and I'm clean cut and out in 15min. read more
