    Hair by Chantell
    Kelly B.

    Chantell is absolutely amazing! She listened to exactly what I wanted and delivered. I tried her out since my normal hairstylist is on maternity leave, but honestly I don't think I will be going back to my old girl. My hair is beautifully highlighted now. Thank you so much!!

    Found this salon last year upon referral from a friend. Scott has cut my hair and also that of two of my teenage sons. No matter what style and photo has been presented to him, he has managed to come out with a great cut that everyone has been happy with. Hair wash included with cut, happy with pricing and quality of services.

    I have been told by more than one hair stylist, I have the hair on my head of three people. It's the truth. I have a lot of hair. It is very dense and it not easy to cut. Therefore, when I find a good stylist, I stick with them. Jennifer Hartenhoff has been my Aveda stylist for many years now. I used to go to her for years at another Aveda salon in Huntington Beach and when she left that studio to move to this one in Seal Beach, I followed her. I live in South Orange County, more than 30 miles from here but travel to this location, because she is the best and I like this salon a lot. https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/sanctuary-salon-and-spa-seal-beach-seal-beach?select=qUNusWU1uvKwC4--WKPKIw For those of you not familiar with Aveda salons, they, of course use all Aveda products but also include nice extras when getting hair treatment here. It is kinda like a mini complimentary spa treatment. They let you smell several of the Aveda essential oils and choose one to your liking and then proceed with a scalp massage with that. It then moves on to neck and shoulder massage before moving over to basin to get your hair washed and conditioned. While the conditioner is working, you get a hand and forearm Aveda lotion massage, also. It is so relaxing. By this time, I feel very relaxed and mellow and could take a nap. So very nice :) Jennifer has been cutting my hair for years. She is a master stylist with Aveda. She listens to me as a client, and I appreciate the time she takes to expertly cut and style my hair. Before my mother became an art teacher, she was a beautician, so I can appreciate what being a good stylist entails. I have always colored my own hair at home, but Jennifer is an expert colorist, also. Walking into Sanctuary, there is coffee, tea or water and cookies available as you wait for your appointment. They offer services for men and women. Every time I have been here, I have seen both male and female clients having their hair worked on here. The salon has a full array of Aveda products for sale, also. They have spa services besides salon services available here, too. I travel from South OC to North OC, because I appreciate finding someone who is not only a super nice person, but really knows how to take care of my hair. Jennifer is not only talented, but a very special person I have gotten to know over the years, and I enjoy my catch up time with her when I am at the salon. Sanctuary has a terrific staff and amenities and services, and I would not travel the miles to get here if I did not feel it was worth it.

    I stumbled into Sanctuary 7 years ago because I needed a trim and I'm so glad I did. Chantell became my girl that day and I've stayed with her even when I moved out of the neighborhood. She even did my hair for my most special day ever, my wedding day and I never felt like it ever looked better. That's definitely the day you want it to be perfect. She goes the extra mile to accommodate all of her clients.

    This is me!

    A friend recommended Chantell when I finally decided to go for balayage highlights. My hair is bra-strap length, super-fine, and stick straight. I'm terrified to color it and I've had so many bad experiences - any mistake is very, very visible and it takes forever to grow out. A visit to Chantell changed everything! She did the most amazing balayage highlights on my medium brown hair that looked completely natural and gave me the perfect haircut. She's a confident, trained hairdresser who really listens. I've since referred several friends and we all make the drive down from LA to see her! I won't let anyone else touch my hair -- and I get compliments on my style and color all the time. Win-win! Go see her, you won't regret it.

    I drive all the way to Sanctuary Salon from Murrieta, which is a good 70 miles one way because my girl Jennifer does amazing on my hair! She explains the color process for my hair (I have extremely dark hair) so that I have an educated choice on what will keep my hair healthy but also look the way I want. I love sitting in chair while she works her talented, magical scissors and color treatment on my hair! I always feel pampered, spoiled, and even more confident and beautiful! Pixie cut, bob, a-line, brown hair, black hair, highlights, and now sultry red, Jennifer has been the one leading my hair journey and always ensures it's fabulous! THANK YOU Jennifer Hartenhoff for always making me look and feeling beautiful!

    I have mixed feeling to be honest. The person who did my hair was very sweet which made this review…read morehard to write. My hair came out pretty, but it wasn't what I asked for. - Cut: The layers weren't done well so it sort of resembles a long mullet at times...kind of a mushroom shape effect. Feels like I have only 2 layers I'm descent with hair so can mask it a bit with curls. - The highlights are fine but they are old school/ going to root all over and not the ballyage effect I asked for. That said, they were blended nicely. - The color is red/orange which bothers me more than the cut. I said multiple times I didnt want red or warm... my whole head, not just the highlights, got toned a fairly strong red hugh. I invested in blue and purple shampoos trying to tone it down. It helped a bit. I did give her feedback but I don't want to go back to get it fixed because I've been back once already and I'm not confident in her ability to fix it at this point. She did offer to try again. I think i gotta wait this one out a few months and then get a trim and/or tone from someone else. Facility was cute and clean, free parking out back. Waited a month to give the review as I wanted to give it time to settle in.

Got there, parked on the side street and walked to the salon. The vibe was chic and relax, super cute decorated for the holiday. Monick was my hairdresser. She looks so much like my sister in law!!! Her hair is gorgeous and her makeup was very beautiful. She let me know that she needed to clean her station since she just finished her previous appointment. No worries with me, I was a bit early. She came to get me, I showed her the pics of the pixie cut I wanted. She did an AWESOME job!!!! I didn't think I would like it as much as I did since I usually wear my hair past my waist lol. I am soooo happy with the results!!!!! Highly recommended

    Oh. My. Goodness... currently sitting in their blower lounge post a 2 hour treatment and all I can…read moresay is wow. I checked in a few minutes prior to my appointment just to make sure that I was arriving stress free. Upon arrival they confirmed my treatment and provided me with a little baggie for my jewelry and a quick survey to complete for my specialist. I was given clear instructions as to what to expect and was shown where the restrooms were (which I think is super helpful). Right on the dot, my specialist Tracy greeted me with such a calm and happy demeanor. She led me up the stairs to the treatment area above the salon and was completely mind blown as to how much of a transformation from the downstairs to the upstairs was. Tracy led me right to this cute little sitting area where she prepped the foot soak and then checked to make sure the water was the appropriate temperature and then asked if I would like some water or tea to drink. I opted for the tea while I was resting she had me preview some essential oils for use for the facial massage... and the rest is history... because after that... I was completely in la la land. I woke up with soft hands and arms, soft feet, destressed head and shoulders, hydrated face and a cleaning scalp with hair that you just want to run your fingers through. 10/10 would do this again... maybe even 2 weeks from now. Thank you, Hunny and Jade!!!
