    Definitely more than a couple of Inches... and not nearly the same length
    Joanne P.

    So I hesitate posting this for a couple of reasons but I can't help but express how devastated I am. I want to start off by saying that the space here is incredibly peaceful and serene and the staff is super sweet, this is nothing against them. I went in for a haircut on Friday 8/13 and I haven't had a haircut in 2 1/2 years besides trimming it at home every so often. I told the hair stylist that I needed to get my hair freshened up a little bit because it was feeling a bit dry and tangly and I could notice some damage and explained to them that I was getting married in two months and had been growing my hair out in anticipation. I explained that I had been trimming it myself at home but wanted to get it professionally done before the wedding. I explained that I just wanted my hair to feel healthier but wanted to keep the length for my wedding, so I was okay with cutting a couple of inches off. I was very explicit about the fact that I had been growing my hair out for my wedding and yet I was shocked once they started blow drying my hair at how short it was. Speechless in fact, I couldn't even say anything. I went home as soon as I could after seeing all the 4-5 inch pieces of hair on the ground and I haven't stopped crying since. I'm sorry I didn't say anything while I was there, I was in shock. And again the person who attended to me was very sweet and the haircut itself was very well done, but I still can't believe I lost so much hair length two months before my wedding. This has honestly been so incredibly upsetting, especially for one of the biggest days of my life. I can't reiterate enough how I emphasized I'd been growing my hair for my special day, and how I feel like my words weren't taken into consideration. Now I feel absolutely helpless. My hair is not where I wanted it to be for my wedding which is only two months away, and I can't stop crying about it. I hope you guys understand.

    From drab to fab. Thank you Jessie

    I haven't had my haircut in 2 years and had the pleasure of having Jessie cut my hair yesterday. I walked away from that cut feeling wonderful, which is something I have never felt before after a cut. I'm so happy I found this place. Jessie was so warm and I felt at ease with her, which made my nervousness fade away. Everyone at the salon seemed warm and welcoming but Frieda was the absolute friendliest .

    Outside hair cut!

    Andrea is AMAZING. The salon community is a safe space, very welcoming and honestly such a cute place. Andrea captured exactly what I envisioned and her creativity knows no bounds. I am so grateful for this salon community and Andrea. I'm looking forward to the next time I'm in her chair. Definitely take advantage of the outdoor hair cuts, they're so serene! Also little Freida is the cutest pup on earth and such a cute presence in the salon

    What an adorable and welcoming space in Long Beach a little off of retro row near seabirds kitchen. I followed my stylist to this salon and she had amazing things to say about the whole environment, and she as right. The owners were so welcoming and immediately introduced themselves to me, and were very eager to introduce their new stylist to the regulars / colleagues / friends. I don't think I've ever seen a salon do that. They also have capes that keep your preferred pronoun: how cute is that? It's a nice touch to say "you're seen." Of course, the salon and beauty world has (generally speaking) been a haven for LGBTQ+ and allies, but it's refreshing to see it on broadcast. Well done creating a chic, fun, and welcoming environment. If you are into razor cuts, shags, mullets, and generally amazing throwback vibes, see Mandy! She kicks ass with her razor cuts! PS: Cal made me an incredible cup of coffee. What a treat!

I've had a few different hairstylists (I wish I could remember their names! I know one was Casandra) and every one of them has been great, but i've gone to Stasi the last few times and girl has AHmazing skills. She does the cut exactly how I want, i've never been disappointed, I always get compliments on the bangs she cuts for me. I cut my very long, boring one-length hair a few weeks ago and I love it so much, I was a little scared to cut it but I trust her judgement and she did not disappoint! I showed her some pictures I found online as reference, and they weren't even the clearest pictures, and she worked her magic and I couldn't love this cut more, I get compliments often and people asking me where I got it and I always refer them to Stasi. Anyone at this salon is great, the vibes are great, the stylists are easy and fun to chat with, seems like a good place all around.

BFFR Period…read morepoint blank I have made time out of my days to commit to our appointments and the first time I did have to change the appointment I stated IF SHE CANT ITS FINE WE CAN STICK TO ORIGINAL, no biggie I can make the original, and then she cancels like bruh we could have stuck to the original & then I couldn't say yes to appointments offered the following day or week because: 1. I had a flight the next day like at 6am 2. when I return I go back to school Mon- Thurs literally 10am -3:30pm and then 6:30pm-9 3. I work 14 hour shifts Fri- Sunday . Not once did she offer if I'd like another stylist , not once did she offer a real accommodation . Let's be real and hold accountability , because this second cancel the day of appointments, messaging me hours before on IG asking to move my appointment earlier to then canceling is WILD . Original : I know the stylists have their own way of booking or dealing with affairs apart of the salon but I think it's wild they have a rebooking fee of over $30 if client has to reschedule last minute their appointments BUT when I get my appointment canceled TWICE by the stylist ON THE DAY OF THE APPOINTMENT , due to "family emergencies" that apparently always happen. I think it's wild that a stylist can waste a clients time and day considering the first time it was canceled I had planned to get my hair cut before my birthday trip and today it got canceled I had just told my boss no to coming in for a shift because of my scheduled appointment ... what do we clients get in return besides wasted time and lost money ? At least she returned my $20 deposit that has been kept since August but damn , homegirl really needs to take care of home before taking appointments , we have a life out here too.

As she cut my hair she was explaining the steps being taken. Everyone else there also seemed super nice. They were laughing with each other and with their clients. I genuinely felt comfortable. My hair came out exactly how I asked. She just read me like a book. I got so many compliments from the other stylists and from my friends at work. I felt super confident with my cut.
