The salon is nestled between other shops with lots of private parking designated for the businesses. The shop is very spacious and is well maintained! Staff are always cleaning up as they go. You can tell the climate of a salon by the conversations they choose to have and I immediately picked up on a fun and creative vibe as I hear different discussions of how they worked with this or what they changed to visualize a different view or re-living a memory they all shared that brought laughter to everyone within ear shot range! It was apparent, the staff collaborated so well together! Emily brought me to the wash for prep. She was quick to assess my personal style and needs, and worked with me. She provided tips moving forward to improve the look of my hair and shared her vision of how my hair will complement the shape of my face. We also discussed hair color and highlights and if I would return, she shared her ideas she had to blend in with the color I already have. Doing business with Emily made my experience a pleasant one. She fueled my visit with purpose and that exemplifies the value of her work by understanding my personal style and visualizing how she can enhance and improve the look! I was pleased with her service and look forward to visiting again for color treatment! If you're in the area and are looking for a regular salon, I highly recommend this salon for all your hair care needs! Thank you, Emily!!

I can't say enough good things about Charlene and Launa!…read more I was attending a wedding at a Temecula winery and wanted to be done up for the occasion. Charlene handled my hair and Launa did my makeup, and together they nailed it. Charlene guided me on adding curl but not too much volume. I was very happy with the result. Launa's makeup was equally awesome. She made me feel put together without my makeup being heavy or overdone. It held up beautifully through a long evening and I received a lot of compliments. Both ladies were professional, warm, attentive, and invested in making sure I loved the final result. They listened to what I wanted and delivered just that. I left feeling confident, beautiful, and ready for a gorgeous wedding. I would absolutely book Charlene and Launa again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for hair and makeup artists who are talented, professional, and a pleasure to work with. Thank you both for helping make the weekend so special!

Jessica did an amazing job on her hair and made the entire experience enjoyable from start to finish. She was friendly, fun to talk to, and made conversation feel easy and natural, which helped create such a relaxed atmosphere. She really listened to what was wanted and paid attention to every detail. The braided style blended perfectly into the curls and ponytail, and the final look was beautiful, elegant, and photographed so well. She left there with a big smile and said she felt so pretty! Her makeup turned out gorgeous, unfortunately I do not remember the lady's name, but she was terrific. My son's gf had picked out a look she wanted, the makeup artist did mention that the look would be dark and they could start light and go darker if needed. She was absolutely amazing with makeup and truly a wizard with the brushes. Her blending skills were incredible, and she really knew how to enhance features without making the makeup feel heavy or overdone. The final look was soft and natural, while still giving that glamorous polished finish perfect for a special event. She created such a beautiful balance between elegant and effortless. Everything stayed comfortable and secure throughout the event. The makeup lasted and did not smudge or smear off. I would absolutely recommend Jessica and the makeup artist to anyone looking for hair styling services and makeup for an event. We would definitely come back to here again!

Rose @ Hair Studio Live…read more Ok so here is my review about a haircut I got in Temecula; at a sweet spot called Hair Studio Live; by a talented gal named Rose. Buckle up. So boom! It's early March, I left DC for a quick getaway to visit my buddy Jason in San Diego and play some rounds of golf. This year's winter was extended and I was excited to finally come out of the DC winter hibernation. The weather was still chilly when I left so I was bundled up. In San Diego we played a round of golf in Encinitas and Jason decides we should pick up Ryan in Escondido, swing through Palm Springs for some desert golf and then hit Vegas and come back. I work for home and all winter I was hiding under hoodies, beanies and NorthFace. To say I looked like a distant cousin of the Geico caveman was not far removed from the truth. I told Jason; dude, I cant go to Vegas like this, I need to get my grooming locked in. I said I need a haircut, bad! Jason shaves his head so he had no hook up and suggested we grab Ryan and along the way and he may have a suggestion, if not, SuperCutz it is. I hit up Ryan and asked if he had a suggestion for a barber around his spot, towards Vegas and he said yes and gave me the number to the salon and said ask for Rose. I spoke to Rose and she was able to fit me in for a quick cut the next day. We packed up and headed towards Escondido, grabbed Ryan and swung by Rose's spot. Rose was super professional and nice. She greeted us, took me to her station and after some niceties, she asked what I wanted. I pulled off the beanie and kept my eyes on hers to see if she'd flinch. Rose did not judge me when the DC winter beanie came off and a mix of unkempt graying mane and pretty obvious signs of male balding patterns met her. She looked around my hair and asked what I wanted. I said a miracle. She said she's a stylist not a sorcerer. Fair enough, I said I want to leave the top a little longer to assist in the comb over, but I want the sides short, especially around the ears. But not skin fade! Also I want a little bit longer in the back so that my nape is not exposed fully. Imagine, very well groomed and blended, short kept mullet. Rose said that's not a problem and she offered to wash my hair even tho I had showered the night before. She got to working her magic. We talked a bit and she was really nice! She learned about the San Diego visit, and the little trip we had in plan, and I felt her work expeditiously but not rushed. I really enjoyed enjoyed her personality, professionalism, and skilled execution. She used scissors which my barber back home only finishes off with. I could tell I was in the hands of a professional, mostly scissor cut and a few brushing of the clipper. There was cool music playing and the place looked nice. I was stoked to have Rose do the work; as guys know, getting hair cut in the wild is a dice roll! A few years back I was in Brooklyn and asked for a haircut from a barber and let's just say I could have dropped the hottest Reggaeton album of the year. Bro, the Dominican gal, she gave me skin fade with pointy sideburns that could have connected to a thin chin strap beard. Nah... I was cooked. It was the type of haircut that would require skipping a day of school. No shade. Just a miscommunication I guess? Rose was stylish and she got it, she was locked in and did her thing. When the cut was done I felt cute as fuhhh -I almost uploaded a selfie to my IG. She cleaned me up, shaved the strays on my neck and sent me on my way. I for sure thought I was gonna feel a dent in my wallet, but surprisingly not. Thank you Rose! Vegas was for sure gonna be a movie! I'm Jake and I approve this endorsement. Ask for Rose and tell her caveman Jake sent ya. She might remember the chaos she had to organize.

When I knew I was gonna be in the area for work I made an appointment to have her cut and color me. She's every bit as amazing at that as she is at styling. She takes her time, pays attention to detail, and cares about the health of your hair which is so important and appreciated. She gave me some highlights and lowlights with her Balayage magic. The dimension is beautiful. She trimmed me up without hacking six inches off my hair- which is what usually happens. And she styles you to perfection. No rushing you out of there. She wants to make sure you are happy and your hair looks amazing. Added bonus that she is one of the sweetest and most genuine people you'll meet. She is a joy to be around. I can't recommend her enough. Go see her and you'll walk out feeling like a cover model.

I came in for a full root melt and baby lights to create a more lived-in blonde and blend the…read moreexisting banding in my hair. Before my appointment, I sent photos of both my current hair and the look I was hoping to achieve. I also explained that I had experienced significant breakage in the past and had spent over eight months growing my hair back out. Karen confirmed she was a blonde specialist and assured me she could achieve the look I wanted. I paid $400 for what was supposed to be a full service, but I left with uneven color, large sections of dark hair still visible throughout the top, underneath, around my ears, and along my neckline. The banding I wanted blended was still visible, and many areas had little to no lightening. I also felt the appointment was rushed. After I reached out with my concerns, Karen initially told me she had "foiled as much as she could" and that there wasn't much hair left to foil. However, she later said she could foil more but that doing so could damage my hair. That response directly contradicted what I had originally been told. If there was enough hair left to foil more, then it raises the question of why it wasn't done during the appointment. That inconsistency was very disheartening. Plus the excuse she didn't want to damage my hair? My hair is very healthy. I also did not want to come back for a redo because my trust had already been broken. After leaving with a result that did not resemble what we had discussed, I was understandably concerned about having the same outcome again. I asked if she would consider at least a partial refund. Although I don't even feel I received what would be considered a full partial highlight because so much dark hair remained, I requested only a partial refund simply to be fair for the time that was spent. Instead, I was told that she does not give refunds and that the only option was for her to fix it herself. It is not right to send a client home with uneven, incomplete results, say nothing about the issues, and then expect them to feel comfortable returning to the same stylist for a correction. I was trying to be reasonable by requesting only a partial refund, even though I don't believe that was a fair resolution considering the amount of corrective work that is still needed. Karen later told me she believed my appointment had been a color correction that took ten hours. Which it did not- it was a 5 hour appointment and not a color correction- she never mentioned to me before. Was a root melt and baby light. She then apologized and admitted she had confused me with another client. That only added to my concerns, as it suggested she was not accurately recalling my appointment while responding to my complaint. Learning afterward that Karen is the salon owner made the experience even more disappointing. As a salon owner, I would expect honesty, integrity, accountability, and a commitment to customer satisfaction. Unfortunately, I did not feel those qualities were demonstrated. This experience has been a waste of both my time and my money, and now I have to pay another stylist to correct the work that I originally paid $400 to have done properly.

This review is for hair color/cut services with Derek. I have been a delighted customer for years! I always get compliments on the color/cut of my hair. Derek understands the unique way my hair accepts color (which is weird), and he gets it right. He listens to you and works with any style changes, but he will always stay true to the cut you love, if that is your preference. The space is a two-chair area that is welcoming and engaging; it is always well-organized, clean, and comfortable. Appointments are well-spaced, honoring customers' busy schedules. I highly recommend Derek for precious head of hair.
