    Brian !
    Matt A.

    Brian is a solid choice for a haircut . Got me in quick , did a great job , reasonably priced , gave my some good drinks. Small 1 man show at the moment . I recommend him , thanks dude!

    By far one of the best barber experiences that I have had. I travel frequently and get haircuts across the nation but none have been quite like this. Without a doubt, Bryan is a visionary and innovator, which shows in his work; moreover, his creativity and training background makes him a unique barber AND personalized stylist. I showed him three very different hair/beard styles that I was interested in, and he was able to craft a personalized hairstyle using elements of each picture. I have always been hesitant getting my beard trimmed, but he was able to trim my beard and give me a haircut that maintained a "lived in" and "natural" yet clean look. 11/10 recommend. Keep an eye on him; he's going to take over OC.

She just gets it her attention to detail and ability to understand exactly what you want without you having to over-explain is rare. Beyond her skill, there's something about her presence that makes you feel comfortable right away. You don't feel like just another appointment you feel genuinely welcomed. Megan was just as great. She's incredibly easy to talk to, very attentive, and really in tune with you throughout the whole process. She keeps everything flowing smoothly and makes the experience feel relaxed from start to finish. Together, they create an environment that's warm, welcoming, and hard to come by. Vaan's work truly speaks for itself it's easy to see why she's where she is.

My first cut with her was the day before I proposed to my boyfriend at the time. It was a huge risk going with a new person but Moni gave me the best haircut and styling OF. MY. LIFE! I haven't gone to anyone else since. Now I'm about to celebrate my 40th out of town and she made me look amazing! Moni!! I also love how friendly and welcoming the staff is! They create a warm, professional atmosphere that is the icing on a perfect cake. Thank you Moni and PRESS!

    I had such a great experience at SAGE, especially with Colby!…read more From the moment I arrived, everyone was welcoming and the salon itself is beautiful. Colby really took the time to listen to what I wanted and understood exactly what I was looking for. I wanted to keep my long hair while adding movement and shape, and he absolutely nailed it. My hair finally looks the way I had envisioned. Beyond his talent, he was incredibly kind and thoughtful throughout the appointment. Before I left, he even let me know that if there was anything I'd like adjusted after living with the haircut for a few days, he'd be happy to take care of it. That level of care and attention really stood out. I'm so glad I found both SAGE and Colby. I'll definitely be back and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a stylist who truly listens and delivers.

    I really wanted to love this salon because I was happy with my haircut and was excited to finally…read morefind a good local place. Unfortunately, the color experience completely changed that. I came in asking for a rich brown. Instead, I left with a very noticeable red/orange band across the top of my head that doesn't blend with the rest of my hair. I never asked for red hair, and the result is nothing like what I requested. Before I left the salon, after my hair was styled, I pointed out the banding because I could tell something looked off. I was told it looked fine, so I trusted the stylist's professional judgment. Looking back, I wish my concerns had been taken more seriously. I left for a planned trip to Europe shortly after my appointment, so I wasn't able to come back immediately. However, as soon as I returned, I repeatedly tried contacting my stylist and left multiple messages. I never received a response. When I finally spoke with the salon, I expected them to stand behind their work and correct the color. Instead, I was told I would have to pay again for an all-over color to fix a result that wasn't what I had asked for in the first place. At this point, I'll likely have to go to another salon for a professional color correction. Between what I already paid here and what it will cost to fix, I'm out around $500 or more. If achieving a rich brown on my hair wasn't something they were confident they could do, I wish they had been upfront about that before starting the service. I would have appreciated that honesty far more than ending up with a color I didn't ask for and an expensive correction process.

We had been looking for something with a similar luxurious vibe here in Orange County, and we were so happy to find The Kempt Men's Grooming because it reminded us so much of that experience. For your first haircut, it's free, which was already such a great start. Carina cut my fiancé's hair and did an amazing job. She gave her professional opinion, really seemed like an expert, and gave him exactly the haircut we were looking for. We're both so happy with how it turned out. As soon as we walked in, they offered both of us a drink. I didn't get anything, but my fiancé got a beer. Another really cool touch was that they provide complimentary shirts to wear during your haircut so you don't get hair all over your clothes. They even have a back room where you can change before and after your appointment -- such a thoughtful detail and something we had never experienced before. We also purchased one of their haircut packages -- I forgot the exact price, but it included 3 haircuts and basically another one free, which felt like a really good deal. We both absolutely love this place and are so glad we found it!

When I first started going to her, my hair was super damaged and short, and over time she completely transformed it. My hair is now so much healthier, longer, and stronger thanks to her care and consistency. She always takes her time, listens to exactly what I want, and somehow makes my hair come out even better every time!! She also does my extensions and blends them so perfectly. I always leave feeling pretty, and refreshed after my appointments!!! Not only is she amazing at what she does, but she's also such a sweet and caring person who truly cares about her clients. The salon atmosphere is always relaxing, it honestly feels like a little self-care day every time I go. lol If you're looking for someone who truly cares about hair health and makes you feel beautiful every appointment, I 100% recommend booking with Janeth!!

    This review took me months to write because reliving it is genuinely upsetting. I want to start by…read moresaying the stylist I saw, Caitlyn, is a sweet person but she destroyed my hair. I went to her in October for a refresh of my highlights. I was already nervous, since my previous stylist had moved away and always took great care of my fine hair, making sure it never got damaged. I told Caitlyn upfront that I was anxious about letting someone new bleach my hair, given a history of stylists frying it, and that I chose her specifically because she's a senior stylist. She reassured me she doesn't use heat dryers and starts with a low developer, so my hair would be fine. Once I was in the chair, I explained exactly what I wanted: a little brighter, a refresh of all my highlights, but keeping the dark root and dimension shown in my before photo. She agreed and got started. She never mentioned pricing, so I assumed it would be around $400 at most. During the appointment, she suggested going through my ends because they looked dark. I said maybe next time, since I wanted to preserve the integrity of my hair. Later, she mentioned she'd gone ahead and done a few extra pieces at the bottom anyway something I never asked for. By the time she finished washing my hair, it was already dark outside, so I told her not to worry about blow-drying it. I went home with wet hair. Even then, it looked extremely blonde, which worried me, but I assumed it was just because it was wet. At checkout, I was shocked: the total came to $650. I left a tip anyway because she was watching the screen as I paid and I felt put on the spot. (Receipts attached.) When I got home, my husband immediately said my hair looked way too blonde and pointed out broken pieces. He was right. Over the next few days, it kept breaking. My hair had taken years to get healthy, and in one appointment it became dry, brittle, and was falling out. The extra strands she did without asking only made the breakage worse. I ended up buying box dye to fix the color myself, since I hated how it looked. As of June 2026, I've had to cut at least 8 inches off, and I'm still working to repair the damage. This experience caused me real distress -- I loved my hair, and I deeply regret trying a new stylist. I'm sharing this so it doesn't happen to anyone else. Before, after, and current photos are attached.
