    Super short, sexy cut. I'm in love
    Jessicca Z.

    Today I had the pleasure of having the amazing Phillip work on my hair. Walking in I was welcomed with warm big smiles and felt right at home. I was on a tight schedule so we got right to work which I loved and appreciated. I had already sent some ideas which helped. What I truly loved and appreciated was that with my dramatic cut he made sure to check in with every level of shortness. He wanted to make sure we were both on the same page with shortness. I had told him of my traumatic experience of someone butchering my hair. Lastly once we were done and styled I couldn't believe that was getting in and out in an hour. I can't wait to book my next appointment. Thank you Phillip, you will be seeing me again soon.

    Ive been going to Phillip for many many years and he has never disappointed. He always delivers a look above my expectations. He's definitely a master at his art and I would never leave him. Hehe. He is usually booked for months at a time so make sure you plan ahead if you want to get in. A million stars if there was an option. His assistant Josh is just as good! He is trained by Phillip and they deliver the same quality work and also both have amazing energy.

    I had the most amazing experience in Phillips chair today, both my hair and mind got the royal treatment. His skill was impeccable and his vibe was the best! Highly recommend my hair is gorgeous and he knew just the right color, and cut! Thank you!

    Words cannot even describe how amazing this guy is. I first went to him about 5 years ago for an ombré and absolutely loved it. Unfortunately, I moved far and wasn't able to go back . I never found anyone that could do my hair like him and always compared other stylist to him- but there is no one like him . finally now that I am close I booked an appointment and am beyond pleased . He took the brassy copper out and blended my hair so well. It is exactly what I want. Phil takes pride in his work and he is a perfectionist . Not to mention, he's so fun and such a great person . You leave his appointments w a new bestie. Needless to say I will never skimp again for convenience and will always go to Phil for life

    If i was able to give him 100 stars I WOULD !!!! I can't let anybody else touch my hair anymore . First at all let me start by saying i havent seen him for 1 year so my blonde was basically gone . I came to see him a few weeks ago and he started with session 1 again and i was sad my hair did not come out how i wanted it . As always he made me feel good and said to just relax theres sessions and i had to remind myself to be blonde again was gonna take a few sessions . As i mentioned in every single review he is super booked so i made a mistake to go somewhere else to cut my hair and when i went to see Phillip he told me my hair was uneven and no layers at all , oh i was upset , annoyed and i learned once again not to let anybody else touch my hair anyways he fixed my hair new haircut gave me layers and now my blonde its back . I have so much respect for his work and he knows it and his awesome personality makes me wanna go see him all the time lol but too bad its just twice a year . Remember ladies if you go to somebody who is charging you 50 bucks to dye your hair just fyi did that before and my hair turned out orange and it was a long process to get rid off that orange since they were not using Professional colors , check my old pictures . Phillip you know you are not my bestie how some people here they say only your besties writes reviews but you know what now i consider you my friend , love you bunches and thanks for having all the patience of the world with me :) and making me space in your busy schedule :)

    OMG! where do i start? i've been going with Phillip for about 3-4 years now. im one of his long time loyal customer. we literally started off when he was doing hair at his aunt's house. & have been going to him ever since. no other stylist has touched my hair BUT him. his work is amazing & just over the top. recommended my sister to him & now she is one of his long time loyal customer as well. our relationship is way too strong for us to break up with each other. we go way back!! lol. unfortunately due to him always being overbooked i don't get to see him often like i wish i did. however my hair looks good even after 3-4 months from my lasy visit with him. girls always compliment me on how great my hair looks & i always go on & on about Phillip & recommend him to everyone! you girls definitely need Phillip in your life! i always leave his hair studio very satisfied and in love with my hair. his hands are magical & the best! thank you love :) ps. can't wait to see you in a week for my hair appt. i'm so excited!!!

    Lighter and shortest I have ever styled my hair. And I only trusted him to do it. Love it!

    Phillip does hair Magic again!! Just came in again today for my second hair appointment with him and I seriously feel beautiful! I have very high standards for hair dressers bc Hair maintenance is a very expensive investment and I work hard for my money:) Prior to ever booking him, I had not died my hair in 4 years. Since my hair is so thick and long, I was very skeptical to trust anyone with it. This year I really wanted to try a Balayage hair style because it looks pretty. I did my research and found him. I booked my appointment ( 3 month wait and well worth it !!) and the results were amazing to say the least. I am NOT kidding . Everyone and their grandmother was complimenting my hair. He is worth the wait and the money. Needless to say I had to come back. And today he did it again! Walking out and I'm feeling like Beyoncé

    Let me start off by saying Phillip is not only the best hair dresser but he has the sweetest heart! He puts love into his work and it shows! I've been going to him for 2+ years now and every time I leave his chair I feel like a million bucks! He will do your hair until your satisfied & will spend hours on a client and not complain. He's very knowledgable and will explain how to take proper care of your hair/color. He styled my hair and 5 bridesmaids for my wedding. We LOVED it! So effortless and beautiful! He stood at my wedding all day and even freshened up my look for reception. He was my right hand man! I truly appreciated it! I just got my hair done last week and I've been getting so many compliments on my cut & color! He's more than my hairdresser now, he's a friend! And I enjoy every minute being in his salon. He has the best personality and will make you feel so welcomed! Worth every penny! Thank you Phil!

    This review is for Ninfa Rivera, one of the stylists who works at Phillip Styles. I had previously gone to Ninfa in August and once again in September for hair styling after a referral. I really liked the type of loose waves she had done on me. Because of this, I had a long conversation with her on how I would love for her to do my hair and makeup for a very important event coming up on a Saturday, in January-my baby shower. She agreed and booked me 3 months prior. Since I would be 8 1/2 months pregnant, I wanted to relieve some stress off my shoulders and just have someone take care of my beauty needs that day leading up to my shower. The Thursday before my baby shower, I sent her a few styles of how I wanted my hair and makeup done, but didn't hear back. Mind you, the week before and a few days leading up to the my appointment date, I received various appointment reminders. I had to be at my venue at 11 AM, and therefore Ninfa booked me at 8 AM in order for me to make it on time. A few HOURS before my baby shower, at 4:46 AM, Ninfa sends me a text informing me she's ill and can not perform any of the services. Luckily, I saw these texts at around 6 AM and texted her back, asking...begging her...to help me. I would have thought she would at least help me find someone to take me with such short notice since it would be nearly impossible to find someone to do my hair and makeup in two hours and have me ready by the time I needed it. I never heard back from her again after she backed out. The amount of stress this caused me and the lack of professionalism was something I've never encountered with anyone-I've gotten various beauty services done before for events, my wedding, etc. I understand people can become ill, but for her not even inform me with 24 hours notice (canceling on me 3 hours prior to my appointment), or make an effort to help me, left me speechless. It was not the type of stress I needed, especially being so pregnant. After the fact, I saw her Instagram account @beautybyNinfa look at my entire story of my big day at around 5 PM. Not only that, the day after this, she posted pictures of herself on her social media out and about in DTLA not looking "ill" at all. Although, again, she never offered an apology or anything. I'm appalled by the type of people Phillip Styles Studio employs, especially having such a high reputation.

    I heard about Phillip because I literally flagged somebody with the sickest hair at Nordstrom years ago and she showed me Phillip's Instagram. From there, my obsession with his work grew even more when I saw his work posted on his account. I COULD NOT WAIT to sit in his chair! Fast forward to finally being able to go to him and bam! Covid started and we had our appointment canceled a handful of times! I was so disappointed each time but each time I was more and more impressed with how professional Phillip was even before we met. He texted me personally to tell me that he would have to close his salon due to the virus and then again would text me to tell me he's going to be opening back up. The level of communication was so refreshing and impressive! So you can say I already loved him before even getting to the salon. And then I finally made it there! (To reassure everyone, he follows CDC guidelines and is incredibly throughout about his clients' level of comfort) I don't know whether I'm more impressed with him as a human being or as a stylist. You can definitely say we hit it off- he's easy to talk to, extremely thoughtful and kind in asking the client what kind of look they want, how they usually wear their hair, etc. Then he gets to work! He's a true artist! He takes his time in getting your hair exactly how you want it and even though his schedule is jam packed (the guy's schedule fills up for weeks and sometimes months ahead) he gives everyone time and attention as though they were the only one on his agenda for the day. He's truly a gem of a person and a super talented stylist. Born to do this for sure! I drove an hour to see him and I'll do it again!

    I've gotten my hair done twice from him and both times I have left happy. I got compliments from strangers both times. He really knows what works for me and I trust him so much. The price I would say is definitely worth it

    This is Nasty looking Phillip. Can you see all the hair color on my hair line? & the awful Wella toner all of this mess for $150
    Marylin G.

    Be aware of this hairstylist !!! HE IS SO BOOKED THAT IF HE MESSED UP OR YOU END UP WITH A UNDESIRABLE COLOR, HE WILL NOT CARE OR HAVE THE TIME TO CORRECT YOUR COLOR That's what happened to me. After a few times of contacting him, (I mean ... I send him some text messages letting him know that I wasn't happy with the results. Yes !! ... text messages because he won't pick up phone calls ) after I told him my roots were too dark, he just told me : it would wash out in a week or so, (It never did ) LMAO . What a joke !!! I contacted him again, and after seen his careless attitude I give up, and had to look for someone else to correct his mistakes. Now, I have found an amazing hairstylist... After "the best" couldn't make things happen Smh ... Phillip never cared to correct my color . He let me go out of his door looking like I couldn't afford a touch up. I mean.. if that's how you roll girl, ok by me .. I like my hair to look on point . This guy is a Disappointment!! I had great expectations, because all the great reviews ... But honestly girls !!! .... Are you coming to see this guy because he's super friendly and tells you all the great things you love to hear about yourself ??... Sure he's nice , he says all the right things and that's what you are probably paying for. I finally get why everyone seems to love him. Also , don't be fooled with his great pictures. Yes !!! He has great lighting inside his little studio so everyone's hair looks completely different inside his studio . Lights can do wonders, and he knows it !!! I mean, this guy is the worst hairstylist ever !! I've been blonde for a while and wanted to do a light transition to ombré, still keeping my roots light. Well , he dyed my roots super dark, he used no technique whatsoever. My hair looked exactly how I came in, (darker roots actually) and my hair wasn't as brassy, because he used a Toner from Wella !!! Wella, people !! And he charged me $130 (+ 20% tip )for a cheap horrible toner you get from Sally's at 8 bucks . I saw him open the Wella box mix it and everything, at that moment I just wanted to run out, but had no other options . My hair was so dry.. More than it already was .. Here are some pics . Make your own judgement, don't be fooled by his bestie's reviews ... And hope you make a better decision on choosing an ethical, responsible, more qualified hairstylist. ( I found mine , and she's amazing !! ) Thanks Phillip

    Love my dark roots & lightened ends!! Extremely happy with my results!

Thank you Nikki and Joe for working on me for 5-6 hours to get this done. Honestly, I almost feel bad because Nikki would explain to me the process in detail and I would be clueless and just nodding my head since this was my first time and I got no clue about being blonde along with the technical terms included in the process of doing it. She knew this and changed her way of explaining so that I could understand it better. Haha. Things I learned was 1 close my eyes when they're rinsing off the bleach, 2 also close my eyes when I'm on the dryer with the bleach and 3 take all the stretch breaks that's offered. There's always a first time for everyone. The results were amazing!! I was nervous, scared and excited because it was a big change but also I didn't know if the color was gonna match me. She assured me that it would look great and it takes a lot to say something like that because that just meant that she knew what she was doing and it was true. Experience was great! She also fixed my chunky haircut and made it more streamlined which ultimately shaped it up to look amazing. We also did a trial run of curls to see how long it would hold if I decided to get it done a day before my nurse graduation this month. Not to mention they're so eager to help out with your progress shots too. Thank you so much!! Will definitely be back in the future. :)

I brought in example/ inspo photo (just simple long layer cut) and asked for face framing pieces and showed it to the stylist, but the stylist barely looked at the photo. My hair looked nothing like the photo I showed, and it was cut much shorter than expected and the end feels choppy. I gave it more chance by washing and drying the day after, but it's overall disappointing. I had mentioned a few times I want to keep it longer like the picture I showed, but it wasn't heard. I couldn't say much more once the stylist made the very first snip and had to go along with it. It became even shorter by the end. I wish the stylist had been more proactive about the consultation before proceeding with the cut. I got an impression that the stylist wanted to get through the hair cut session as a quickly as possible. This was for upcoming graduation, so it is more disappointing. Again, very nice lady. Not too sure if it's just one time issue!
