Chad is a hair magician, I am so thrilled about my haircut! This is my first time getting my locks cut by him and I'm so glad I came here. I finally took the plunge today and got an A-line bob cut. So far, this is the shortest I've ever cut my hair. Although an A-line bob hairstyle seems like a simple cut, not all stylist can cut it with such finesse and precision. I love that I can swish my hair whichever which way and it still falls into place perfectly. Not too short not too long, not too layered, just right. Overall I had a great experience. Parking was a breeze. Easy access to and from the 210 Freeway. Definitely give Salon Passione a try! You'll be glad you did. read more

Salon Passione - Marina's Hand Magic - Hair Salons Near Me - Pasadena, California

I have trust issues when it comes to my hair, because I am terrified of getting a bad cut! So, any time I try a new place I am very wary. I had nothing to fear with Chad at Salon Passione. He knew what to do with my hair from the moment I walked in! He tells it like it is and gives great style guidance based on hair type and level of upkeep that I'm willing to do. I left the salon feeling great about my new do and could not wait to show it off. He and his wife Grazia are awesome and I highly recommend Salon Passione. read more

Love this place! I checked it out when a friend told me about Chad after I raved about her gorgeous hair. Been going here for 7 years now to see Chad for cut, color, and amazing blowout. I got my mom and friends hooked, too. Service is wonderful; I especially enjoy being greeted with espresso for those early morning appointments. Products are fantastic. Chad's using INOA haircolor which has beautiful rich colors, no ammonia, no odor, and looks great for weeks. Free WiFi! Ambience is upbeat, cutting edge, and friendly. You know how some salons can make you feel like you aren't hot enough to leave your hair on their floor? You don't get that feeling walking into Salon Passione, even when you know you're overdue for the service. And, after spending time in Chad's hands, I always walk out feeling like I'm so hot no other salon would be good enough for ME. He has a great eye and talent for style and color. With previous hairdressers, I'd stress over how my hair was cut or colored and never feel satisfied. With Chad, I can let him call the shots and he always delivers a fresh, fashion forward look that gets me lots of compliments. Regarding the folks who didn't have a great experience here, I'd say give it one more chance. It doesn't sound like they had the good fortune of seeing Chad, who is the mainstay of the salon. One of the guys mentioned in a poor review (Josh) is gone now and wasn't there long. Salon Passione delivers. Thanks for all the great hair days, Chad! read more

Found a groupon for this place and headed over to get my damaged poor hair cut and treated. There is limited parking in the back, and the lot is a little bit tricky to find. The service was professional, and the inside was modern and clean. My stylist was really nice and because I had little preference for how my hair was cut, just made some executive decisions for me - which I appreciated! Hair is feeing great and healthy now! One little draw back is she that I got a deep moisture treatment as a part of the groupon deal too, but my hair just felt like it was regularly conditioned. Usually after deep conditioning treatments, it feels heavenly. read more

I've been to several different salons to dye my hair platinum blonde/white, and Chad was the first one to fulfill all my hopes and wishes. The color was absolutely perfect, and the experience was so good that I sent my mom there right after! We now go there together :) read more

Chad is the best! I came here because my hair was a disaster, over processed and I needed help. I was referred and actually an acquaintance of mine has the most beautiful hair so I asked her where she got her hair done, I was seriously so unhappy with what had happened to my hair. 9 months in and my hair is in the best shape it's ever been. Chads prices are reasonable considering the talent he has and quite honestly you really can't put a price tag on your hair! Go see him! You'll be soooo happy you did! read more

Absolutely wonderful! Clean, modern, and welcoming space. I've been cutting my own hair for a while to save money, but decided to take the dive and get my hair done right. BEST. DECISION. Chad gave me the perfect cut - movement and style with minimal effort. Definitely recommend! read more

Can I just start off by saying this place is AMAZING ! If anyone is in the market to get a true blonde look without the brassy orange tone ask for Marina ! Marina has been the only person compared to other salon stylist, to get my hair the blonde that I want! She is very knowledgeable and can fix any bad hair situation you might be having . She is the only stylist I trust to touch my hair, I have been a client of hers since the day I went from brown, to red, to blonde! Everywhere I go, I get the most compliments from strangers. She is truly a natural, always with a smile and never catching her on a bad day! You can tell she loves what she does. I highly recommend this salon, the staff is super knowledgeable and friendly, they make you feel very comfortable and the salon is clean and spacious. read more

Chad suggested I go shorter & blonder with a Keratain treatment. I was apprehensive at first, but then I just trusted him and went with it. The best decision I ever made. My hair is so healthy & I love my new cut!! Thanks Chad. read more

Salon Passione - So in love with my new cut, color & Keratain treatment! Thanks Chad - Hair Salons Near Me - Pasadena, California

Chad, Grazia and the entire staff at Salon Passione are amazing. They are talented, hospitable, and down to earth. Chad is a master with color, he is the only person I will go to. When I moved from Pasadena to West LA I still hauled an hour each way for cut and color. I tried finding someone closer because driving 40 miles round trip in LA is a bitch and I have zero free time, but nobody else can get the color the way I like it. I highly, highly recommend trying this salon. I've been to many salons in across the major US cities and this is my favorite one. Aside from their talent, they are also like family and you don't find that everywhere. I am moving out of California and am so bummed that I have to find a new salon. Tip: they serve amazing espresso and coffee beverages, don't pass it up! read more

I gave Marina a pretty good challenge: fix my messed up haircut without knowing me and my thin/straight meets thicker/curly combination hair. She did a fantastic job, checked in with me through the whole process to make sure that I was happy with it, and was incredibly professional when she could have said "What the heck happened to your hair?!" I think I just found my new stylist! While I didn't know anyone, it appeared that most of the clients were regulars. More importantly, every client was walking out with great cuts and beautiful color. The salon is bigger than I expected. I've walked by on my way to Run With Us many times and thought it was just a little shop. It feels bright and sophisticated without trying too hard. :) 3 cheers for online booking!! read more

Best salon in the SGV, I've been a client for 8 years now. To get this quality cut and color elsewhere would usually be through the roof, but Chad and Grazia are very fairly priced. If you know exactly what you want, they will listen and you will walk out very happy and with your wallet in much better shape than it would be for the same cut and color anywhere else. Many stylists can do this, but don't know enough about the actual science behind what they are doing (or just don't care) and will ruin your hair. Chad knows how to get what you want and maintain the health of your hair, and if what your asking is impossible without ruining your hair, he will tell you so and protect you from making a mistake. If you need some help deciding what you want, Chad is EXCELLENT and knowing what would look good on you and presents very good options and ideas. They are also always willing to do you the favor of squeezing you in at the last minute. They are reliable, honest, hardworking people. Overall I highly recommend salon Passione!!! read more

This review is well overdue! I've been getting my hair done by Chad for almost 10 years now. He is so incredibly talented at his craft. Being in the beauty industry myself, I'm a very picky person when it comes to my hair and he is the only person that I trust 100%. Every time I get my hair colored by him I get so many compliments on how amazing the color looks. The salon is very clean and hip and there's always great music playing in the background. Chad and his wife Grazia are both so incredibly sweet and accommodating. I can't imagine going anywhere else ever! If you have never been I highly recommend this salon, I promise you will not regret your decision. If you're looking for and amazing cut and color ask for Chad he is the salon owner and does a phenomenal job!!!! Now what are you waiting for?!?! Go and make your appointment! read more

All I can say about this salon is WOW! I was nervous because it had been a while since I had gotten my hair cut and only really trusted 1 other person with my hair,(she lives in another state), but I was SO impressed with this salon. Chad and Grazia were so accomodating and genuine, they are TRUE professionals. I highly highly recommend this place, you will not be disappointed. read more

This place is my new great find!! Chad is amazing and so accommodating. I was able to book an appointment the very next day for a Keratin Smoothing Treatment and my hair looks and feels incredible...just like silk!! Now I get why they have such a high rating. I'm so happy I found this place on Yelp. read more

After driving to Beverly Hills for the last 5 years, I needed something closer to home. My sister found Salon Passione and told me to try it. Chad gave me the exact color I have aways wanted. It was absolutely stunning! His cuts are also spot on. Super cute salon, super sexy stylist, I found my new home! read more

You need to go and see Stephen Whitt. He has been cutting and coloring my hair for the past several months. Every time I have it done I get so many compliments. In fact my three roommates now see him!!! And we are all redheads!!! I am growing my hair out and he just makes it look perfect. I wish he could style my hair everyday. read more

Grazia was my hairdresser and made an amazing job from the highlights to the cut ! They made a perfect job ! The salon is great, Chad and Grazia will definitely see me again ! Love u guys ! read more

Great haircut! Great salon. The only thing better than my hair cut is the stylist, Chad, who was able to give me such a fantastic hairstyle because of his talent and confidence. So glad my friends referred me to Chad read more

Chad and Grazia are fantastic. Chad is superb with the color and cuts. They are friendly and very professional. I have been a client for over 15 years and wouldn't go anywhere else. He always works with my hectic schedule and accommodates me regarding appointments. He and his wife are both great stylists and really take the time to get to know their clients. I highly recommend them both. read more

Update: I've been going to Chad for the past 11 years and I don't trust anyone else to do my hair. I go weekly for blowouts and my hair looks amazing every time! read more

Chad has been doing my hair for 15 years and he always does an amazing job with my cut and color. I wouldn't go anywhere else!

Chad and his wife, Gras always do a consistently wonderful job. My Husband and I have been coming here for years for our haircuts. I do have to give a shout-out to their new "shampoo girl", Jade. She has great hands, and while the conditioner is on your hair, she covers the top of your head with a hot towel, AND gives you a hand massage! I think she is there on Wednesdays and Thursdays, so schedule your appointment accordingly! read more

Marina did a beautiful job of turning my long blonde, brassy looking hair into beautiful lowlights and highlights of ash blonde. My hair is lightened and brightened for spring! I am very happy with my hair and Marina is a very pleasant, sweet stylist that I highly recommend. She seems very knowledgeable about color mixing and knows blonde tones very well! (Hard to find parking though.) read more

I love the service at Salon Passione, my hair is so much healthier and I am very happy with my highlights. Thank you.

Damien is new to this salon but I followed him over from his last one. He is amazing at color, cut and conversation:) my hair has never been healthier or looked better than the last 2 years (since I've had Damien as my colorist and stylist). Thank you Damien!! read more

Chad is an amazing hairstylist! I've never been one to get haircuts regularly or care about my hair...until I met Chad. The style he gave me is perfect for my face and the color complements my skin tone PERFECTLY. My hair looks so good that I get complements from complete strangers, which is a nice confidence boost. I would strongly recommend Chad; he's the best! read more

Chad gives an amazing haircut and is priced reasonably!

Chad is awesome! He's been coloring & cutting my hair for over five years and it always looks fabulous. I love the vibe at the salon and always enjoy catching up with Grazia & Chad. The products they use are great and pricing for both products & services are reasonable. read more

I was driving down to Laguna Nigel to get my hair done and yes it was good and cheap but the drive was killing me. I was asking some friends who lived local where they went and a friend recommend that I check this place out. Yes I pay more for convenience but it is well worth it!!! I have been going to Chad now for my cut and color and he is AMAZING!! I always get compliments on my cut and color and I won't be going to anyone else. He is the only one I will recommend to friends. read more

My hair has never looked better. I get complimented all the time. Aside from that, I love the atmosphere at Salon Passione, the great service and friendly staff. There is always a new item added to the customer satisfaction quotient when I come to the salon, like the new wine dispenser and an espresso machine. Going there feels like a home away from home where everyone knows your name! It's so nice that even though I'm there for Ruth Herrera, Laura and Chad always say hi Olivia! They are very thoughtful and look out for everyone else's customers. Last time I was there, my phone ran out of juice and I mentioned it to Ruth. One of the staff over heard and within minutes I had a charger. That was so nice. I would never go any where else for my hair needs. I used to hop around to different hair salons because I was never satisfied. But at last I found the place to be and Salon Passione is for me! Thanks Salon Passione!!! read more

The absolute best color and cut I've ever had. Chad and Grazia know what suits their clients best and collaborate with each one effectively to end up with amazing results- every time. I've seen it with myself and every client that walks into their salon. They've taken my hair from a length that I've never been able to grow past and have worked with me to get my hair looking great always. So happy to have found them!!! read more

Stephen Whitt is by far the best colorist and stylist I have ever come across. Not only does he really take into mind the shape of your face and coloring of your skin, he also allows for some playfulness as well. His cuts are so good they last a very long time too. Any time he does my hair I receive compliments. I have been seeing him for years. On top of the talent he possesses, he is also extremely personable. It's fun to get my hair done by him because it's like visiting with an old friend. Hours fly by with laughter, and in the end I look gorgeous - all thanks to Stephen. I adore him. You must get your hair done by him. You will not regret it. read more

I am trying to grow out my hair and went into Marina for a clean-up. First I was pleasantly surprised she was able to provide me with a same day appt. She really did a fabulous job. She listens and takes care in what she does. Great first time experience. Can't wait for her to help me with a bit of color correction. Thank you Marina. read more

I was very unhappy with my hair color and cut, so I decided to try them out. First I had a consultation with Grazia and she explained what she would be doing and when I went back, she did exactly what she said. I love my color and the cut is fantastic. I have received so many compliments on my hair since I was there. The shop is very comfortable and the people were so nice and friendly. I highly recommend Grazia and Salon Passione!! read more

Laura is the best colorist in the world! Been going to her for over 10 years..i highly recommend Laura as an all around hair designer.

Chad did an amazing job on my hair and he was super quick. I have gotten so many complements on my hair and how natural it looks. He is super easy to get along with too. My hair is now super healthy and getting lighter with every wash. It looks amazing when I curl it too. The products he sells at his salon smells great. I will definitely be coming back! read more

Ask for Stephen! He's a gem! He's done my hair for the last 6 years, and he always does an exceptional job. He's always able to do something fun & creative when I've gone to him with the need for something that stands out. He's very talented with color, as he's seen me thru various shades of browns and reds, and has done some really fun things with highlights and lowlights. My coworkers always compliment my hair after every visit...and I don't know how he does it, but his cuts always grow out so well. Love him! read more
