Bree at Salon 500 is amazing. Her skin fades are always clean and consistent and she does a fantastic job with my beard too. She works around my unpredictable schedule, handles last minute changes, and is great with my sensitive skin and all my extra requirements. She is lively, easy to talk to, and makes the whole visit comfortable. Only small suggestion is to have an aftershave available at the end. Overall she is awesome and I highly recommend her, especially for mens cuts! Absolute 100/100 read more

Unfortunately, this response is misleading. Instead of acknowledging valid concerns, the owner minimized my experience and avoided responsibility. This interaction was more disappointing than the service itself and shows a lack of professionalism when dealing with unhappy clients. "At Salon500 we do strive to give an excellent haircut and excellent customer service. I was also there for the initial consultation We were fixing a bad haircut. You had gotten somewhere else. We did the best we could to fix the haircut that was already done by somebody else. We spent a lengthy time in the initial consultation, To try and help you out with a bad haircut you had initially gotten somewhere else. We wanted to want to help you I am sorry that we we're not able to." read more

II had such an incredible experience with Valeska at Salon 500! She installed my I-tip extensions, and from start to finish, everything felt professional, efficient, and thoughtful. I could instantly tell she takes her time to make sure every strand is perfectly placed -- nothing felt rushed or sloppy. The final result honestly blew me away. My hair looks thick, bouncy, and full of life, which is such a transformation from my naturally thin, fragile hair. The way she cut and layered it blended everything beautifully -- it looks completely natural. On top of that, she was so gentle on my scalp and worked incredibly fast without ever sacrificing quality. I left the salon feeling confident, gorgeous, and so grateful to have found her. If you're thinking about extensions, go see Valeska at Salon 500 -- she's truly gifted at what she does! read more

Bree was amazing, made me feel so beautiful My hair feels so healthy and looks so shiny!! Thank you so muchhhhhh! read more

AGAIN...STAY AWAY FROM THIS BUSINESS! The owner passes off synthetic hair as real hair! When I went back to have the owner fix the mess she did in my head, she NOT only would NOT fix it, but ALSO ran out the salon and called the cops! She NEVER came back and left me in the salon sitting there with the mess you see in the pictures attached! I LITERALLY had to pull EVERY SINGLE strand out by hand! This shows HUGE LACK of PROFESSIONALISM and maturity! The statements by the owner are COMPLETELY false and she's just trying to cover her ass because of how HORRIBLE her salon is...DON'T waste your time or money at this place! read more

Salon 500 - Hair Stylists Near Me - Long Beach, California

Cindy is absolutely amazing! She did my hair last week and then my daughter's this week, and both turned out fabulous. She's not only talented but also warm, funny, and genuinely cares about making you feel comfortable and confident. I originally found Salon 500 while searching online -- I had recently lost my hairstylist of 28 years and was honestly nervous about trusting someone new. But I kept seeing Salon 500 pop up, so I booked an appointment, and I'm so glad I did. Cindy went above and beyond from the start. She's extremely experienced, takes her time, and makes sure you leave feeling and looking amazing. The highlights she did on both me and my daughter were perfect -- natural, blended, and full of life. If you're looking for a long-term stylist who truly listens, has incredible skill, and makes the whole experience fun, Cindy is the one! I'm so happy I found her and will definitely be back. read more

I came here to get my hair done and the quality is amazing. Valeska is so kind and accommodating.

This is the place to go if you want to transform your fine hair to full looking , healthy hair! read more

My friend went in for hair coloring and style. She was greeted by Bree who was her stylist. Bree did a fantastic job and took the extra time to listen and make it like my friend wanted it. When I picked her up she looked like a model and raved about how she loved her hair. Bree did wonderful work and my friend will definitely return. read more

I can't say enough good things about Bree . From the moment you sit in the chair, you feel taken care of. They listen carefully to what you want, offer helpful suggestions, and make sure you're comfortable throughout the entire cut. Every time, I walk out with a clean, sharp haircut that gets compliments. On top of the quality work, the conversation is always easy and enjoyable it feels like catching up with a friend. It's rare to find someone who is both talented and genuinely invested in their clients, but this barber is exactly that. Highly recommended. read more

Valeska was able to fit me in same day! Very nice and clean salon. Recently moved to the area and was looking for a new salon and had helpful recommendations for my extensions in regards to hair health and better options for me. Will be back! read more

I've been coming here for a few years. Every stylist is fantastic. They pay attention very closely to your needs and wants. They have a great eye for color.

My daughter was all smiles when she saw her hair!! Thank you for creating a wonderful experience and exceeding our expectations. Cindy is her go to now . (See Attached pics of Cindy's work) Also, I didn't want to mention Valeska because I wanted to gate keep her . But there's no way I couldn't mention her because her work is truly incredible. Truly a master at her trade. She has created such an amazing salon. All her hard work and passion shows through her team. This salon is truly a vibe!! Love the whole team at Salon 500!

Salon 500 - Hair Stylists Near Me - Long Beach, California

I have been coming here exclusively since I moved to California last year. I am always impressed with the quality of the service, and the amount of meticulous detail that Valeska pays to making sure everything is perfect, from color to hair extension application. Too bad there's only 5 stars, because I'd definitely give 6! read more

Evunyy was the best! Not only did her and Valeska the owner stay late for me after hours (since I was coming from work) but the service was amazing. Evunyy listened to my styling and coloring needs and overall was just an awesome person. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a new 'do! read more

Kept changing who I was supposed to have an appointment with, no hairstyle or blow dry washed the hair and terrible cut, not worth $65. The owner doesn't care about the client just wants the business and is defensive and rude. read more

Just had the most wonderful experience at Salon 500 for a mens haircut. Very professional and the attention to detail was off the charts. Overall it just a warm environment to be in. Highly recommend. Will definitely be back. read more

My hair looks amazing with these extensions! Valeska was able to see me on short notice and provide exactly what I wanted.

I love this place, I drive from LA to get my haircut with Bree every two weeks. I trust her with my hair and the way she leaves it, it's a chefs kiss. I don't see myself going with anyone else. The salon is has a peace of mind once you enter you feel at ease. The shampoo and heads scrub is definitely relaxing. The way Bree uses hair product and styles my hair is the cherry on top. I recommend this place, and Bree is one of the best ones there. 10/10. read more

Worst Salon Experience I've ever had. Made an appointment with Valeska, and someone named Bree ended up helping me. I asked where was the original person I booked with and I got "she's busy". I asked for a root touch up, and got a color several shades darker than the rest of my hair. I said no to a trim and she said I needed one, then cut several inches off of my hair. When she was blow drying my hair she was damn near burning my scalp off I had to stop her. To top it all off, when I was walking out I see a huge blob of hair dye on my arm which I still have not been able to get off. Whatever you do do not go here or book here, worst experience ever read more

Went to salon 500 for a blowout in style, and it did not disappoint. I saw the stylist Rae and everything from the wash and condition to blow drying and styling was amazing! read more

Hair extension service is fire! Valeska knows what she is doing and takes a lot of pride in her work!

This is my first time ever getting my hair professionally done. I'm usually a diy kinda gal but wanted a little pampering since I'm a busy work from home mom of 2 under 2 and felt like I needed a little me time and get something done where I can feel a boost in my confidence without a lot of effort. When I arrived my stylist was running slightly behind but I was greeted by Valeska who was great and offered me a beverage while I waited for Enrique. Once he arrived he apologized for the delay and went straight to work but immediately I felt in good hands because his personality is so welcoming and he's there to take care of his clients. He was very professional and personable and explained everything he was doing and let me know the products that he worked with to preserve the health of my hair. We did a balayage and trim and I freaking love it! This is definitely what I needed to get a little bit of me back. Thank you, Enrique! Will be coming back here for sure! read more

The good news is that I was able to make a same day appt the bad news is the salon is not very professional. I was booked w Valeska for 12:30 pm wash and blowout...arrived at 12:35 pm...she didn't acknowledge or even say hi. At 12:58 I asked if I would be seen soon as I had a tight schedule and was waiting for awhile. The staff speak Spanish and talk about you because they assume because I'm not hispanic I don't speak Spanish. The parking is tough as it's street meter and a lot of the spots are 24 mins. The original stylist never once apologized for running late or even acknowledging me. She just kept on working on her original client seems like they're doing graduation . Another stylist who was sweeping and nice as asked me if I needed anything ended up washing my hair and blow drying it after I mentioned twice I was tight on time. Would not recommend as it doesn't seem like they care about whether or not they have clients. If they couldn't make the time they should have said something and I could have booked elsewhere I did finally get a blowout but felt like I had to keep on asking for something I am still paying for otherwise I would have just sat there forever Then the original stylist finished w her client so I had to wait with hair half blown out at 1:14 pm. The blowout was great once she got to me. She did apologize for being late too which was appreciated read more

Definitely recommend. 100/10. Very beautiful work. Alyssa did a great job with what I asked for will definitely be back . Observed everyone else while I was there and their work was beautiful as well. Everyone is so nice and welcoming . Thank you Alyssa again. See u soon .!!! read more

Had an appointment to get highlights with Rachel and she was the best. It was my first time getting highlights and the whole experience was fun and relaxing. Will definitely go back for future touch ups ! read more

There's always a bit of hesitantion when finding a new stylist. I made an appointment to get my haircut by Elizabeth with the salon owner, Valeska, who was very helpful. Right off the bat, Elizabeth was genuinely invested in hearing what style I wanted and went over it several times to ensure she gave me the best cut/style. Elizabeth has great communication, wonderful energy, and truly loves her craft. I definitely enjoyed our interaction and how she texturized my hair to give it more volume! I would absolutely suggest choosing her. read more

I love coming into this salon. The staff is super friendly and both times I've come in they've made my hair look perfect for such a good price. I payed 30 bucks for a full hair style for a performance I did and it was stunning. Definitely recommend this spot. read more

WOW! I don't even know where to start.. Valeska is a miracle worker!!! She understands how to cut my hair & dye like no one else I have ever found!

The salon is beautiful great conversations totally makes you feel like a girls day out!!! read more
