Ashley B.

So long story short...we are new to RPV and my daughter wanted a bob haircut before starting school. Being unfamiliar with the area I figured it would be an easy enough haircut to achieve at one of those "chain salons". My daughter has straight hair. After walking out of that salon twice with "hackbob" and a very upset 12 year old girl I began googling my heart out and found Salon Nirvana. Not only were they able to get me in same day but a very talented hairstylist Emily, completely transformed my daughter's hair from a train wreck to a cute hairstyle that she completley adores. She is ready for 7th grade! Thank you so much to the very talented Emily and kind Peggy for saving the day and making our salon experience amazing!

The best my hair has ever looked!

Salon Nirvana is an absolute go to for your beauty needs.. Whether Emily is greeting you at the door with coffee and cookies, or Dyanna pointing you in the direction of the newest hot spots, Peggy and her team of professionals never fail to make all of their clients feel at home and GORGEOUS. Seriously, these gals have a real talent for hair color, cuts, styles, and yes, even makeup! Wish I could rate higher than five stars... I will never go to anyone else but Peggy. If you have a chance, take a look at some of her "before and after" photos on Instagram @salonnirvana. She is a miracle worker, and a lovely woman. Thank you Peggy for all that you've done to my locks!

I've been cutting my hair with Dyanna for years and I personally like to switch my hairdo's up. Love the atmosphere.

First time trying this salon. As soon as I walked in I was greeted with a smile, and friendly…read moreservice . I felt very welcomed. The place was full of beautiful women getting their hair done. There was good music playing in the background. Talk about vibes lol. I absolutely intend to go back. Prices are very reasonable! Great service!

I had high hopes for this establishment and I really wanted to like this place. I was so excited…read morefor my appointment. Unfortunately not only was the customer service horrible but so was the service provided to me. While expressing what I wanted to get done I confirmed with Chohee if it was achievable. She said absolutely! I was thrilled and excited and said lets do it, we agreed on a price $400. I thought it was a bit pricey but said I deserve to treat myself. I was sitting in that chair for 4 hours. My phone died. I was hungry and thirsty. No one asked if i needed anything or check up on me. She was attending other clients and overall I felt neglected throughout the whole process. Despite the poor treatment and feeling of abandonment, i still had high hope that I would receive my new look and it would all be worth it. I stayed calm, kind and patient. She then revealed the final result and it was not what I had asked for. I pulled up the reference picture and said to her "I was going more for this look, is this it or were you still working on my hair?" No attitude, no negative tone, just a question. She suddenly got defensive and said she did not appreciate me saying "is this it?" And that she felt insulted. I apologized to her and said "that wasn't my intention it's just that I've been sitting here for hours expecting a different result that we discussed and agreed to." She said if I wanted that look then it would be another $300 and probably another 2 hours. I was shocked. She changed the price from what we discussed and at this point I felt like she was trying to take advantage of me. As Chohee was finishing the final steps of my appointment she was extremely cold, and unpleasant to be around. I felt VERY uncomfortable. I felt like i was beings reasonable and accommodating the whole appointment and to be treated so poorly really disappointed me and made me feel so small. Definitely won't be coming back here.

I had an appointment made same day which was great. I was disappointed by the hair cut. The lady…read morewas nice, but I felt like my request was not heard. 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!

I haven't been to a Korean hair salon in years and it took me awhile to be brave enough to search…read morefor one in Torrance. When I called she asked that I text her and we exchanged a few messages with photos of my current hair and the hair style and perm that I wanted. I was put at ease as soon as I entered Uni Hair Salon. The owner was kind and patient as I explained further what I wanted. She in turn tried to explain to me why the perm I wanted wouldn't work for the hair style I desired. After much back and forth she said she'd do her best. After all was done, I thought I was happy. But when I got home and more time passed, I simply did NOT like my hair cut. I texted the very next morning and we set up an appointment that evening. She listened to what I was not happy with and without any hesitation she went to work. I was very happy with the results! I have received so many compliments since visiting Uni Hair. She knows what she is doing. She has years of experience and you can tell! With my persistence in wanting a certain style, she was calm and patient with me. If I continue to live in the area, I would be going back to her. And just from my experience alone, I have concluded she takes pride in her work. If you are not happy SAY SOMETHING! And let her correct and give you the hair you are happy with.

I've been coming to Tammy for cuts for years, and absolutely love how my hair always comes out…read more Today was my first time going to Kelsey and had an equally great experience! I have extra thick long hair and she was able to give me exactly what I asked for.

I wanted to dye my hair here and decided not to after my consultation. Like the owner here likes to…read moresay, "the vibes were off". I walked into the salon and I don't know if it's because I don't fit the look of the clients here, but the owner stops talking to the client she was working on and stares me up and down and lets me just stand there looking lost because I wasn't sure where I was supposed to wait to meet with Kelsey. It's a tiny salon too so she was just staring directly up and down at me like a weirdo and doesn't say a word to me, then continues to talk to her client. I eventually peeked in the other room to see if Kelsey was there and she seemed nice and asked me to have a seat and give her few minutes. Personally I think customer service goes a long way, long enough for me to decide where I will and won't spend a few hundred dollars. The owner seems full of it so this review is mostly for others who feel customer service is important (especially when you're paying for it!). As a Latina, it's exhausting trying to find good businesses that are not pretentious and snobby in the South Bay. As it is, I already feel out of place in RPV, it's apparent the owner wants only a specific type of clientele, just read her responses on the one star reviews here. As for Kelsey, she seems sweet and the only thing that made me realize I wasn't coming back, was when she told me she would text me later that day to send me photos of ideas she had for my hair and she never did. After a week of not getting a red, I realized I just didn't get a good vibe. Mostly because when I looked back at Yelp I realized there were reviews on poor customer service and then it confirmed this bad feeling I initially had after the consultation.

Nori is one of the finest stylists you can frequent…read more He has a meticulous attention to details and I super appreciate his precision cuts. He services his scissors in Japan semi-annually just to maintain his equipments in great condition. This helps prevent split ends and other hair troubles I used to frequently encounter. Nori also uses a scale to formulate the hair colors. You can feel assured you won't come out of the salon looking funky. Appointments can be made online directly from his website, or by emailing/texting him directly. He is very flexible and accommodating with appointments. Lastly, parking can be found adjacent from the salon building structure. You can also charge your EV for free too. Amex accepted and drinks and clean environment offered. Can't recommend Nori enough.

I went in to get a perm and cut…read more The vibe was very nice. Very respectful. His space was very clean and tidy with what seems, state of the art tools. I have had fine hair all my life, but even still my hair has always taken well to perms, always. Even the last one over a year ago. The only complaint I had was the use of larger rods which made my hair more wavy curl than curly. Nori had said that my hair wouldn't take well to a perm, but because I know my hair's history, I asked him do it anyway and he agreed to do it. First he used a more gentle solution because of my pervious perm over a year ago (did not ask if I wanted that), and I didn't know until he was already in the process of using it on my hair... my hair needs the stronger solution. Second he did a loose curl wrap instead of a tight curl wrap. With fine hair (or at least my hair) it needs to be curled up against the scalp. I think he did this because it was a hot treatment perm (which I never had before) vs a cold treatment perm. He didn't give an option. So the perm came out ok on the bottom because it already had the previous perm that was there from a year ago. But the top part of my hair had virtually no difference. If you have fine hair and looking to get a perm, I would not recommend Nori. I'm sure he does really well with all other hair services. To his credit, the perm itself, aside from the lack of curl, was a healthy perm (did not harm my hair) and he did give a very nice cut prior to the perm process. I think if he would have explained his treatment process and how it differed from what I had previously experienced, that may have helped my decision to go elsewhere, before wasting over $200 I had taken a year 1/2 to save. Again I think he probably does really well with the other services he provides. I just think for women (or men) with fine hair, you may want to think twice if you're looking to get a perm.
