This was my hair length 1 week before going to Diane and it was also blown out in this photo.
Christine H.

I went to Diane for a woman's haircut, shampoo, and blow dry for the first time this past weekend. I was a new customer from Yelp, as I was looking to get a haircut and am new-ish to the area. I chose Diane because I saw all of the amazing reviews about her and her expertise in doing long layers. However, I was pretty disappointed with the experience. First, I made my appointment for 1:30pm and arrived on time, but when I got there, they immediately asked me if my appointment was at 2pm and I answered, No it's for 1:30pm. Diane was still working on a man's haircut and they asked me to wait a little. That's no worries. They got me in the chair at 1:45pm and moved the man to another chair. She instructed me to sit in the same chair that the man was sitting in and did not sweep up any of this hair off the ground and quickly brushed off the remaining hair off the chair. That peeved me a little, but it's fine, what can you do. She washed and shampooed my hair quickly and I felt like it wasn't the most thorough. Halfway through, she got a phone call from another customer and she told them that she could take them at 2:45pm. This was odd because that meant she would finish my haircut in less than an hour with styling. I have long, thick hair that fell about 2 inches above my buttcrack. I came in looking for a long layers trim, as I was mainly looking to touch up my bangs and get rid of some split ends. She looked at my hair after shampooing and said I should cut 2 inches. I told her that 2-3 inches would be fine (as I have had many instances where older stylists have cut off more than expected, I was setting my expectations lower). I should have set my expectations even lower because from the first cut of the scissors, I already knew it was going to be 4+ inches off. She was rushing through the haircut and cutting random segments to what felt willy-nilly. Diane went from cutting the back of my head to circling to my bangs and doing things in a matter that didn't make sense. I saw so much of my hair on the ground and there was nothing I could do about it because it was too late at that point. There was a huge lack of detail and it just didn't feel like she was taking her time on me. After the speed haircut, she put me in the dryer so that she could finish up with the man who she was with first, as his hair dye was ready to be washed out. She left me in the dryer for about as long as she did the actual haircut ~around 20 minutes. Through all my years of getting salon treatments, I've never needed to sit in the dryer for such an extended period of time. When she was ready to see me again, she sat me back in the chair and said she was "going to make me pretty" by curling my hair. When I looked at my hair in the mirror, it fell right at my chest and it was way too short. She curled it and asked if I liked the bang length to where it was and I told her I did not and that I wanted it shorter, as a bang trim is one of the main reasons I came in. She didn't even put my actual middle part in my hair before she starting cutting it again. At this point, I was frustrated and just wanted to leave. It sucks when you try something new and do not get the results you wanted. I went to pay with my card and she charged it without showing me or telling me the price, as I made the initial appointment online for $55. When she gave me the receipt, it was $65+ tax and I asked her why and she said it's because you wanted a shampoo too. I just wanted to leave, so I paid it and assumed I was wrong, but I checked their website again and it was $55 for a wash, shampoo, blow dry (photo attached from their booking site). The next day, I take a closer examination of my hair and I realize that it's not only way shorter than what I wanted, but my bangs are also crazy uneven. The photo is attached, but it's about a half an inch different. Mint is a no-frills, typical Asian salon, and for me, that usually gets the job done, but this did not hit the mark. My haircut was cut way too short, it was rushed and the bangs are done unevenly, and on top of that, I was charged way more than the actual price. As much as I wanted to like Diane's services, I unfortunately can not return. EDIT: The business contacted me offering a $10-15 refund and said I could come back to get it fixed. Why would I make the same mistake twice?

Love my birthday nails from Heidi! Always an amazing job!

Love my nails! Been going to Heidi for over 5 years & never dissatisfied! I always give her a picture to refer & she goes above the image!

The hairdresser was nice, friendly and talkative. However, this was the worst experience I ever had in a hair salon. I had horrible results from my hair coloring. She made a mess on my forehead, so while washing the hair she tried to clean up the mess. But what she did was to use her nails to scratch my forehead until it was too painful for me. After I went back to my car, I saw my forehead had black spots from the hair coloring and redness from the scratch. It was painful for two days and the picture shows what the scratches look now. I did the hair coloring for an appointment with someone very special, and of course that was totally ruined. So angry and disappointed! I mean who with common sense would scratch a customer so hard?

Cut, root touch up and highlights by Diane :)

I am beyond pleased with the first time service I had with Diane. She did a root touch up, beautifully layered cut, deep conditioning and highlights. I wanted to keep my length but I had a lot of split ends. The layered cut she suggested did the trick. Diane has many years of experience and she knows her craft. I am happy to say I have found a new stylist. For a couple of years, Nipa has been doing my facials, threading and waxing. Nipa has a calm and soothing personality and I always feel so relaxed after leaving the salon. The facial products she uses are very soothing to my sensitive skin. The facial room is very clean and organized. I really appreciate the great service Nipa provides!

Just wanted a last minute haircut today-- and decided to pick a different salon! It was my first time coming here but my expectations were definitely exceeded. Diane was so great in a lot of ways, I asked for some tapered layers in hopes to get rid of split end appearance. I was surprised with results-- Diane is super skilled with layering. My hair looks a lot healthier and I'm so happy with the cut! Diane was the sweetest and really good at conversing, totally coming back here!

I asked for curtain bangs, face-framing pieces, long layers, a V-cut, and a little trim, and he absolutely nailed it! The salon does have translators available, but I was totally fine without one. Wilson was super nice, patient, and attentive throughout the entire appointment. Honestly, I've never felt prettier or more confident after getting my hair done! I'm so happy with how everything turned out. Thank you so much, Wilson!! I highly recommend him and will definitely be coming back!

I haven't gotten a haircut in over a year, so I was really looking forward to this, but this visit was so disappointing. None of the workers spoke English, which meant the translation was poor from the very start. Because of that, they basically did not do at all what I asked for. I explicitly requested to take off 4 inches, but they chopped off 7 inches instead. For reference, my hair was down to my waist almost and straight across so I was looking forward to getting some nice layering and a decent trim. (I attached my reference photo vs what I actually got). My hair that I took so long to grow out is now super short. To make matters worse, the whole styling process felt very aggressive and frustrating. I honestly felt like I was being thrown around in the chair and manhandled. They repeatedly poked me in the face with their fingers when moving around my hair and the comb kept getting very close to my eyes... When I finally saw the results, the layering was so uneven it was shocking. I wish I had a better picture, but when I got home I was so saddened by the haircut that I cried out of despair and started aggressively cutting it myself just trying to fix it. I also still can't get over that I basically have less than half of the hair I started with left. Absolutely do not recommend, terrible experience.

I booked a women haircut appointment online for the next day and was able to get a spot. It was a…read morepretty reasonable price, about $65. There was a bit of a language barrier between my stylist and I but we were able to work around it! Because of that, I unfortunately didn't get his name. Clean environment although it seems that none of the photos from their website are actually theirs? If you do not speak Chinese, BRING PHOTOS! You should bring photos anyways but it will greatly increase the chances that you'll end up with a haircut you like. If you want to be extra prepared, use Google Translate to describe what you specific want from the photos. I provided a photo but also let my stylist know that I'd be willing to listen to any modifications he had for me, hence why the cut is longer than the inspo pic. I'm relatively happy with my hair. I wish there was an option for slightly more time (cut took about 50 mins, scheduled for an hour). My hair is a bit bulky/thick so I would've liked the sides and maybe bangs to have been thinned out a bit. I definitely could've asked but didn't know if it would have been done in the allotted time. Overall, I'd probably be willing to come back!

This was my second time seeing Pierce (first visit was back in August), and I'm really impressed…read morewith the consistency and care. My hair has definitely grown since my last visit -- I've been taking Nutrafol and it shows -- and Pierce did a great job working with the new growth while keeping my long-term goal in mind. My goal over the next ~6 months is to gradually cut out the existing color in my hair, and Pierce was thoughtful, patient, and honest about the process. The cut and color were done beautifully, and everything feels intentional rather than rushed or over-processed. I really appreciate how he listens, explains what he's doing, and focuses on hair health, not just the immediate result. Clean salon, great energy, and solid talent. I'll definitely be back.
