WOW. I've always wanted to try a full-on blonde look but always thought it would be super difficult with my dark Asian locks (not to mention damaging). I've also had horrible hair experiences in the past and am sceptical of any new stylist that I encounter. I found Sarah (seola) on Instagram and was super impressed with her work. Through messages before my appointment, she was honest and realistic about my hair goals. I went into the appointment thinking I would either go for easy and manageable natural highlights - or FULL BLONDE.. we discussed a bit more and she suggested with my virgin hair this would be the best time to just go for it. I wasn't entirely convinced I could actually go blonde in one session - but it happened!! And in record time.. (cut, bleach, and tone in less than 5 hours) not only was she able to achieve a light blonde, she toned it to the most epic silvery grey - and also gave me an absolutely banging textured bob. After a year of my self cut quarantine hair and boring natural locks - I feel so fresh and rejuvenated! Sarah is so talented, professional, and sweet. I would recommend her to anyone looking to up their hair game. Check out her insta @seolahair for photos of her transformations. read more

Seolahair - Not the best lighting or shot.. but going from natural dark brown/black to this.. super impressed with Sarah! - Hair Stylists Near Me - Los Angeles, California

BEWARE....I requested a quote for touching up my already bleached front panel. I guess it's referred to as a money piece. It's about 2-3 inches grown out and only needs the ROOTS touched up. And she quoted me $560!!!! WHAT!!! Lol!!! Absolutely insane!!!! Her pricing on here should be $$$$ NOT $$. Just ludicrous lol read more

Seolahair - ABSURD quote for a SMALL PANEL to touch up in front of my hair. - Hair Stylists Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I have never dyed my hair and with everything being shut down during covid, I was rocking a totally overgrown black mane. Wanting something different, I decided I wanted to go blonde for the first time ever. Anyone who has dyed their hair before knows going from virgin black hair to blonde is no small feat. I was highly skeptical that it would be possible the first time to begin with. Seola asked me for an inspiration pic, so I put together a mood board of hair I liked. I chose photos with a softer brown base and warmer blonde highlights. When seola saw my natural jet black hair she immediately let me know that dying all over to try and get the chestnut brown base without bleaching would just result in fading to brassy tones. She recommended that I do a base bump, dying my entire black hair just slightly lightening (lightening too much w/o bleaching would result in brassy), so there would be a softer transition to the warmer blond highlights I wanted. This process took about 2 hours and I came back in the next day to finish up. The next day, she bleached my highlights. I cannot stress enough what an insanely detail oriented process this is. Seola really went above and beyond to blend the highlights seamlessly - she highlighted my hair in two batches and there must have been hundreds of foils in my hair (see pic). This part took 3 or 4 hrs alone. Finally, once everything was bleached, she redid my roots in the darker base color (this is to avoid seeing your roots as a line of colored hair, and give the dye job more longevity as it grows out) and blended everything then toned the highlights. Throughout the entire process, I felt I was in extremely capable hands w Seola. All she really needed was the inspiration pics in order to intuit the style and vibe I wanted - and she mixed all the colors accordingly and raised flags when she thought a certain decision would lead to something she knew I wouldn't like (brassy). She has a ton of experience, is a hard worker, and natural intuition with what you're looking for. I will DEFINITELY be going back to her!!! read more

WOW. JUST WOW. When I say I wish I could give 10 stars I'm not exaggerating, and I hardly ever write reviews. I had completely virgin hair before coming to Seola. I decided to finally go blonde from brunette on impulse. I saw that Seola specializes in coloring and also more importantly for me, asian hair as well. It's so hard for me to find someone that does my hair well as I am extremely picky and very selective with who gets to work on my hair. I was super excited but honestly I am 100000x more happy with the results than I had imagined I would be. The cut and the color came out immaculate! She was also sooo extremely patient with me and explained the entire process so I appreciate that, especially since I didn't know much at all about coloring. Super helpful! Found my hairstylist and colorist FOR LIFE!! Couldn't thank her enough! xx read more

Seolahair - My finished hair :) - Hair Stylists Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I had made an appointment with Sarah almost 3 weeks ago. I confirmed with her the night before at 6pm and she confirmed. Come today the day of my appointment, she canceled claiming that she's "too sick". I follow her on Instagram (which I'm sure she wasn't aware of) and saw that she just posted and had herself eating in Joey's DTLA. I'm really annoyed and upset because I took off work, and set up a nanny to get my hair done and for whatever reason she canceled last min. I even asked the night before if we were still on. (See attached screen shot) So unprofessional and such a waste of everyone's time and money being "so sick" I think it's sketchy that she only accepts cash too. read more

Seolahair - You can see the time stamps on our convo. She didn't even respond to the last message. - Hair Stylists Near Me - Los Angeles, California

My before and after pictures say it all. My hair was a hot mess. The color from the previous job was all sorts of wrong and my hair was not in the best shape. Normally my hair is very healthy but after all the bleaching and salt water, Sarah warned me there was a chance of breaking. Luckily my vitamins kicked in and voilá, no breakage. If you need a lot of work, expect to be out of commission for 6-8 hours. Luckily there are plenty of restaurants in the same mall if needed. As others have mentioned, Sarah's tips are very helpful. Simple fixes like how to curl correctly or mixing purple shampoo with normal shampoo. Happy to have found her and remember cash only. read more

If you are looking for the best colorist in LA, look no further! Seola/Sarah is just genius at what she does. She can be as classic or creative as you want, is extremely detailed and devotes a lot of energy to making sure your hair turns out beautifully. The color is multidimensional, complex, fresh and flattering, supported by a wonderful flowy cut that gives your hair lots of swing and shape. In the end, you'll end up with something very pretty and fun, just as hair should be! Her practice is to give you a sustainable, low maintenance style so you only need to see her once every few months. It may not feel like it's more cost and time efficient when you're handing over your cash at the end of an all-day session, but trust me, I did the math and this really is a better deal all around. I was expecting amazing results based on her instagram, and she didn't disappoint. She has a scientific approach to hair, plus she gives you useful, practical advice on daily care. She shares great tips that are simple, straightforward and easy to follow. Grab a spot at Seolahair now while it's still possible to get appointments with her.

Seolahair - Blonde ombré with minimal damage, love it so much! - Hair Stylists Near Me - Los Angeles, California

My hair was so damaged from previous salon to a point they couldn't even fix it. I visited 3 different salons in Korea and 2 different salons in Los Angeles. 4 of them rejected me and 1 of them told me that they will only do it if I sign the waiver. On the other hand, sera took a look at my hair, gave me the same reason why other salons rejected me but she said she will try her best to make it happen. As you can see the process photo, that's how she made it happen. She was extremely patient and very attentive. I'm 100% satisfied with the result and I get so many compliments everyday! Can't wait to go see her for the next touch up session!!! read more

Sarah is by far the best colorist I've been to. I got full head highlights from her almost a year ago (May 2018) and still get compliments on the color. For reference, I'm Asian and have dark hair with red undertones - the blond in my hair still looks ashy and the blending is still amazing. The picture attached is from then. This weekend I went back and got a haircut from her and she killed it again! I love my haircut and will be back to get fresh color in a few months (before the summer wedding season). Can't wait! read more

My sister came home one day with the most fabulous haircut and color, which made me want to get my hair done too! I was soon introduced to Sarah, communicated with her what I wanted (a dusty pink balayage), and sent her my hair-goal photo. I had an appointment in a week. My hair is a hairstylist's worst nightmare - super coarse, black, and plentiful. A blessing and a curse, if you ask me - every single hairstylist complains about it, but I won't ever have to worry about going bald when I'm old ;) That said, the whole process took about 7 mother flippin' hours... literally almost as long as giving birth! But Sarah was so attentive and patient throughout the whole process and I couldn't be happier with the result. I came out of the salon with the hair of my dream - dusty pink/lavender hair. Needless to say, I got so many compliments on my new hair color and cut. Sarah is hands down one of the BEST hairstylists I ever had to privilege of trusting with my hair. She WILL give your hair her undivided attention and diligently work to make sure you come out of her salon looking FABaf. Helpful tips: her salon is located in the same plaza as Ktown's super popular slurpin ramen bar and is CASH ONLY! read more

I am so luck to have found Sarah! I recently moved from Orange County to Koreatown and was in search of a new stylist. Sarah was an angel from heaven! Sarah was great about giving a consultation over email which I really liked, it gave room to no surprises. I can honestly say I received from Sarah the best haircut I've ever had. She didn't rush and spent a lot of time ensuring a perfect haircut. I also LOVE how she styled my hair, I try to get as many pointers as possible. We plan on taking my hair blonder soon, and I can't wait to see what kind of magic she works. read more

Was looking for a quarantine glow up and wanted to change my hair drastically. I came across seolabair on Instagram and immediately fell in love with the work. I haven't done any fashion colors before and seola was very communicative and informative while listening carefully and asking the right questions regarding my hair needs. She explains everything in detail and the day of the service the process went smoothly. I'm impressed by her attention to detail and her knowledge on colors and hair treatments. The end result was absolutely beautiful. Even though I have not had a short bob haircut before, and was scared to have short hair, iturned out amazing and I couldn't be more happy about it. All my friends were raving about it after I posted on my socials. Now that I'm more comfortable with colors I would definitely go back and get more fashion colors in the future. Would highly recommend to anyone who wants to give it a shot! read more

Wow! I cannot stress how great Sarah is with her work. She knows what is good for your hair and what isn't. I went in there with roots and dye at the bottom of my. She let me know what her concerns were with my hair, and made sure I understood what the possible outcomes would be. The end result is just AMAZING! I absolutely love my hair. She not only knows what she's doing, but she is also super sweet. Sarah, I have found my new hair colorist in Cali. Thank you so much! Xx Please see before and after! read more

After relocating from interstate I was nervous to try find a new hairdresser, particularly one that was comfortable coloring Asian hair platinum blonde. I didn't need to worry, because Sarah was the perfect person for me! Booking the appointment was so easy - after sending through an image of my hair, I was able to get a cost estimate and schedule my appointment all via text. So convenient! Not only is she extremely experienced in complex coloring, she also cares about the health and integrity of your hair. Sarah gives you a thorough consultation, but also factors in your desired results before proceeding with coloring. She used unique techniques and patience to perfectly blend the four months of black regrowth I had, with the new shade of blonde she created (definitely not an easy task!). It's always so hard for me to find someone who can color my hair without making it brassy, as being Asian, my hair has a lot of red undertones. For anyone with black Asian hair looking for the perfect shade of blonde, Sarah is the perfect hairdresser for you. Sarah is also so friendly, and the hours you spend with her while your color processes will fly by. If going really light, be prepared to be there for awhile as she will keep processing and toning until your hair is completely perfect - something that I appreciate as a client. It is six weeks since my color, and my hair color still looks great as it grows out. read more

Sarah is an amazing colorist and definitely worth taking a visit if you want change. I had a horrible experience with a colorist who didn't know how to handle Asian hair and left my hair fried and dry. I covered it up by dying my hair back to black and never thought I would get it done ever again but when I came across Sarah's IG, I had to take a visit. She took her time (almost 9 hours of work) to lift my hair and tone to the way I wanted my hair to look - she gave me the perfect ashy-blonde I wanted and toned it twice until I absolutely loved it. She treated my hair with olaplex and my hair doesn't feel damaged like the first time I got it done from a different colorist. I already went back again to get my hair toned (because I wash my hair every other day) but it's been 3 months since my last visit and my hair still looks great! read more

The details that Sarah went through for my haircut and color is unreal. It's been about a week since my haircut and I'm still extremely happy with how it turned out. (Also, I've never had someone pay so much attention to my hair for over 6 hours LOL) Sarah's super easy to communicate with via text to schedule an appointment. To book, I sent her a photo of my current hair and some "goal" photos. She responded back with an estimate and potential availabilities, all through text, which was super convenient. At my appointment, Sarah confirmed with me the style and cut I wanted. She also gave me her honest and straightforward opinion, which I very much appreciated! She started with the haircut first, then moved onto the bleaching (which took up the most time because I had a lot of hair), then toning. During this time, Sarah's super fun and chill to talk to, pretty much about anything, including tips/advice on how to best take care of your hair. I also felt like she never ran out of patience, even though she's already had such a long day. She finished up my hair in the late evening. Even though it was pretty late, she made sure to curl and style my hair, making sure I really liked it before leaving-- and I loved it! I walked out feeling like a brand new person. Sarah's literally the sweetest, and I definitely recommend her to anyone! Can't wait to visit her again :) read more

Wow! Is all I can say just WOW! I've never had such an expert touch my hair, seriously I've been to super trendy and expensive salons in NY, London, Paris,Spain and LA you name it I've been there, but nobody has the expertise and eye that Sarah has. Right from the beginning she knew what she was talking about and you can tell, she just grabs one strand of your hair and knows what you've done to it for the past couple of years even if you don't. I have super dark brown hair, and when I can to there I had some horrible highlights. She took away the brassiness, we went blond with baby lights (I honestly never thought I could be this color) she didn't damage my hair one bit! If anything my hair is softer than before which is insane! She studies your hair and knows what hair cut and color is going to suit you best. I've honestly never been happier. Not to mention you can text her for anything you need hair related and she's right there to give you advice. If she starts a hair cult count me in ‍ read more

I met with Sarah last summer and at that time, I was open to trying a new look. It's really difficult to find a skilled hair colorist who truly understands what you're looking for and can actually give you that look you had described. Sarah is amazing. Very knowledgeable, accommodating and friendly. I really liked that she took the time to ask me what I wanted and gave me honest feedback. She walked me through each step and explained thoroughly the process. You can really see the amount of effort she puts into perfecting her work. I have naturally dark hair and Sarah was able to give me this seamless ombré. A beautiful sunkissed beach look, perfect for summer. I LOVED it. I was getting endless compliments from everywhere. I came back to her again in September to get a warmer color for winter. There's no other hair colorist I would trust. I HIGHLY recommend her. Her work is top notch. Thank you Sarah!

Having been to so many hair colorists over the years, I never settled with one because of how picky I am. However, now that I've found Sarah, I wouldn't have to go on the hunt ever again! From the beginning to end, she was not only extremely patient and detailed, but also just friendly and pleasant to talk to! I came in not really know what haircut or color I even wanted, since I'm super indecisive, but she was able to guide me through it and we ended up with a product that I couldn't be more happy with. She was able to achieve the ashy blonde color that I really wanted, and delivered a haircut that's textured and precise. My favorite part is definitely her detail to color blending! The babylights look so natural that for the first time I walked out of a salon with no worries of my hair looking hideous when it grows out. Long story short, I really recommend you go to Sarah if you're looking for an amazing hair stylist! She treated my hair like it's a piece of art, which is honestly a pretty accurate way of describing her work. You won't regret it! read more

I am so so happy with my new hair! SeolA is very thorough and made sure that every strand of hair was perfect. We've always had great conversation while she does my hair and I've received many compliments since she's colored my hair. Honestly, I don't do much to my hair at home and it still looks amazing! Thank you always for making my hair look great! You are a beauty magician read more

Sarah is the best!!! She really pays attention of the details of you hair and I really love the results of my hair. She broke my walls in finding the stylist and I hope I can be a long term client of hers after how she did my hair! My sister is one of her clients and she recommended me Sarah and I wish I went to her first! I'm happy with the results that I have even thought I did get box dye done. My hair was a jaw dropper when I saw the final results! If you have any questions she will educate you about it. She educates you with well details plus the hair cut she gave me was beautiful ! She takes the time of giving you your hair cut :3 especially in one sitting hands down her hands are magic! I would recommend going to Sarah to get your hair done! read more

Wowowow is all I can say. Sarah is incredibly talented and I'm so happy I found her. I went into my appointment with a few pictures, but didn't know exactly what I wanted. I gave her the complete reigns to make a drastic change and I couldn't be happier with the results. She is super knowledgeable and thoroughly explains everything from the coloring process to how to properly curl your hair. Sarah is super sweet, welcoming and comfortable to talk to. I had such a great experience and would highly recommend anyone to her. read more

Sarah is the best hair stylist I've ever had!!! I feel so lucky to have come across her Instagram page. I've had two previous balayage sessions that turned out OKAY, but never how I wanted it exactly. Because of my dark pigmentation in my Asian hair it was always difficult to get as blonde as I want and my hair would quickly turn brassy after a week of coloring. I explained to Sarah what I wanted in terms of cut and color and she delivered flawlessly! Very cool and fun personality as well so the time goes by fast. She has impeccable style and you know you can trust her from the start. Even when she had a flight to catch after my appointment she made sure to curl and style my hair even when she was running out of time. I highly recommend her for anyone who wants a stylish cut and blonde balayage hair!! Thank you again Sarah~ read more

Sarah was amazing! I wanted a change because I've always had black hair and never dyed it before. I was also really sick of my long hair, which I didn't cut for years. Sarah gave me the cutest cut and the exact color I wanted! I got the balayage highlights and she gave me her undecided attention and was a great person to spend the day with! I loved her technique and was she was amazing at explaining how my hair would turn out and the process the entire time. I felt comfortable and trusted her to make me look good. The results was everything I wanted!! read more

I wanted to wait a week before writing this review to see if my beautiful hair from the salon would translate to real life when I myself would have to blow dry and style it myself. It has been over a week and I can safely say that Sarah has done wondrous magic to my hair and I love it! From the careful cut to the extremely meticulous application of bleach to my entire head of hair (a LOT of hair...), Sarah did not rush throughout any of the process. We started with a cut which took about an hour and a half. This was a long haircut but she made sure I liked the length and layers, and then she went ahead with texturizing my hair a ton. I was afraid with my slightly wavy hair, the texturizing would make it difficult to style my hair with a quick blowdry, but she reassured me that the layers were long (not short/shaggy - shaggy would have been my nightmare) and that texturing would just make it so that my hair would be more airy. This lightened up my hair a lot and not once did she use a razor/knife tool. She used scissors the whole time which is also preferable for my hair type. When it came to the bleach application, this took the longest. A few hours. I would definitely expect to be at the salon for most of your day if you make an appointment. Sarah doesn't use any crazy tools minus a blowdryer to slightly speed up the bleaching process. I'm positive this process helps her achieve the color she wants to bring out for each of her clients' hairs. She also used used the olaplex treatment after bleaching, and then toned my hair a beautiful ashy brown. Sarah will not only be your friend when it comes to coloring your hair, but also on how you can maintain the look, strengthen your hair, wash your hair properly, etc. I took away a lot of great tidbits of info from her when it came to how to wash hair/keep it clean/dry shampoos, etc. I'd recommend everyone to Sarah. Her pricing is fair, and her skill is impeccable. She's super fun to talk to too, and that's always a plus when you're going to be sitting in a chair for so long! I've gotten so many compliments on the hair since. Thanks, Sarah! read more

Wow I don't even know where to begin with my review... So when I went in to get my hair done, my hair was a MESS. It was embarrassingly brassy and damaged from my lack of hair care and ignorance... But thanks to Sarah and her wise advice, my hair looks so good and is on the pathway to becoming healthy!! I am soooo happy with my hair, I love to look at it every chance I get She managed to get the exact color I was imagining AND gave me tips on maintaining it. I've been recommending her to all my friends who are thinking about getting their hairs done because I 100% believe Sarah will be able to help them reach their hair goals as well. I first contacted Sarah back in October but couldn't find a day to go to her salon because I live in San Diego and she's in Los Angeles... But fast forward a few months and I was able to schedule and appointment on MLK weekend. Sarah is super sweet and I'm sure she will accommodate to you if need it so don't hesitate to hit her up as soon as possible!! 10/10 RECOMMEND read more

Wow. Am I lucky girl or what to have had the opportunity to be a client of Sarah's?! My really good friend Nho knew that I had been looking to color my hair again and had been on the lookout for someone attentive and able to give me the hair color that I wanted. After she referred me over to Sarah's instagram account, I was hooked on her work and vowed to not get my hair colored by anyone else other than Sarah. I'm currently living in Germany and at that time, had to wait a few months before I was able to go home for the holidays to get my hair colored. The wait was arduous as I was tired of my dark and drab hair and needed some color to lighten up my life during the gloomy grey days of this winter, but it was so worth it! Sarah is extremely professional and such a pleasure to know. From the time of scheduling the appointment, which was such a breeze all the way to getting to the salon. Although I was late to my appointment (shame on me, I know), Sarah met me with the biggest smile and welcomed me to her salon as if I were her long lost friend. My worries about being late quickly melted away as she assured me that she would take care of me and help me achieve the desired color and look I wanted. I had a special situation in that I was only in California for two weeks and was in a wedding in the middle of my stay of the holidays, but wanted to keep my hair long for the wedding and trimmed shortly after prior to my departure back to Deutscheland. Sarah was so kind and thoughtful to help me book two separate appointments. The first for color and then a week later for the cut to accommodate my request of colored hair for wedding and shorter hair prior to leaving. It wasn't ideal, but she made it work for me. It was a joy to get to know Sarah on my first appointment for color. Not only is she a pleasant, sweet filled, genuine, chill cool gal, but she has all the dedication, determination, patience, eye for color and thoroughness that one needs to be a good colorist. Now, that is the perfect combo for what a colorist should be! Having been in prior stressful situations where I was rushed to and forth chair to chair, even standing up at times with dripping wet hair since the salon was that busy, I truly appreciate her natural ability to be relaxed, yet focused and not high strung during the time I was with her. She was attentive to everything starting from where the highlights should start all the way to the toning of each subsection of hair. She was intentional and meticulous with each step, making sure to get the end results right. Now that's what I call an expert and someone who truly cares about their clients. I swear, I've never seen anyone work as diligently as Sarah. To top it off, I got the dream color that I imagined and walked out of the salon with an oomph of confidence thanks to her! I had the further pleasure of seeing Sarah on a second visit for my cut and got to know her even more. All I can say is that she is such a sweetie pie and can see that she is a light to all her customers! My cut turned out just the way I wanted it and I love how even when I leave my hair down that the my normally pin straight hair is not as flat thanks to the way she cut it. Sarah will not disappoint you with her work! She really is a one of a kind, both as a colorist and as a person. I will try my best to save my hair and hold off on another coloring session so that I can get this personally done by my new favorite coloris Sarah. Crossing my fingers for a return trip back home to LA soon! Thank you Sarah for making my hair dreams come true! I so appreciate your work and know that you will set the standard in the color industry! read more

Sarah is an absolutely amazing colorist. I have been living in LA for 6 years and have been jumping from colorist to colorist, but I have finally found my go to person with Sarah.

No words to describe how much I loved how my platinum hair turned out! Sarah is amazing and talented, she creates masterpieces through hair! It took 8 hours to get my virgin black hair all the way to a platinum gray dimensional blonde and it was worth every second and penny. Also all in ONE SESSION! My hair is still very strong. Sarah made my first experience of going blonde the best. Sarah took her time to explain all of my options given the current state of my hair versus the goal pictures that I showed her. She was fully transparent on what to expect, maintaining the hair, and follow up sessions. The end product was beautiful, truly a work of art. All at very reasonable prices. I highly recommend. I will be going to Sarah for all future hair cuts and color. read more

Truly- masterful with coloring and cut. I strolled into the salon with banded, unblended, poorly cut, and broken hair from a different neighboring salon and she fixed it like it never happened in the first place. Sarah is fun to chat with and very professional. Unlike salons where they divide the work among 4-5 people- Sarah gives you her full attention and there is virtually no waiting time unless it's process time.My hair looks multidimensional, shapely, and easy to style/manage. Worth every single penny. read more

I am incredibly particular and sensitive about my hair so I refused to switch colorists for like six years until Seola Kim. She understood exactly what kind of cut I wanted and what kind of color I wanted from the very first session. She understood that I lead an incredibly demanding and busy life and needed gorgeous hair that didn't require constant fussing (don't nobody got time for that!). She wasn't lying when she said her method allows the hair to remain stunning for much much longer. I was getting compliments for my ombré for SIX MONTHS. SIX MONTHS! I finally went in again because it was getting too long and I needed a cut. Now THAT is worth the money. She also helped me try out a cherry pink ombré I've always wanted to try but never had the guts to because I didn't know how I could show up to work with cherry pink hair... but she was able to color blend so it came out classy and beautiful. I swear I only get my hair done twice a year now and only Seola is allowed anywhere near my hair. Thank you, Seola! See you soon for my next appointment! ;) read more

I wish I visited Sarah much earlier before botching my hair at a cheap Korean hair salon for a balayage. I visited Sarah from Seola hair on 2/15. Before coming in for the appointment, I was texting Sarah about my concerns and my main hair goals. I perhaps texted her too much and bothered her waaaay too many times. But she was very understanding and tried to resolve my concerns. Before starting the dying process, Sarah and I talked about an hour because I wasn't fully sure what I wanted. I was traumatized by how my hair looked and didn't want to do anything major. But Sarah had the intent to make my hair look GORGEOUS. We ended up dying my hair back to a darker color and re-inserting highlights and now I LOVE my hair. I've been receiving so many compliments from my friend, and even strangers. She really nailed the part in getting dimensions and having an array of shades. Personally I was done with the blonde look and I wanted to get natural brunette highlights, and the final result was beyond my expectations. I highly recommend Sarah to anyone. Her prices may seem high but it is worth all. Some tips I have is to have a clear image of what you want. Bring in lots of pictures for reference and don't shy away from asking questions. She'll do the magic for you. read more

Sarah is the Best colorist! My friend introduced me about Sarah when I was looking for a new hair stylist after I had many bad experiences from other hair shops. I visited her Instagram first before I make an appointment with her. It was very easy to an appointment with her, she responded right away and she was being so flexible for my schedule. When I visited her the first time, my hair looked terrible, no color, and hair was damaged. It took about 6-7 hours for her to get my hair done. And I really appreciated her about that because my hair looked amazing after she touched. Her price was very reasonable too. I feel like I would pay her more because she worked so hard to make my hair exactly what I wanted it to be. read more

Looked around for over a year for an experienced colorist specifically for Asian hair to get my hair blonde. Living in New York I happened to be in LA and I am happy to have found Seola. She was able to not only dye my hair to an ideal blonde shade but we were able to integrate my existing bleached strands as well. Any questions I had she was super accommodating and meticulous when it came to bleaching my hair with care. It's only been about a week and I continue to get compliments on the shade to my skintone. Thanks Seola! Would definitely recommend. read more

I had never attempted to color my hair (apart from horrible highlights in elementary school) until I met Sarah. She took such care and time in walking me through the steps that she was taking and transformed my jet black hair into a fresh, brunette hairdo ready for all of summer! I was nervous and unsure of taking such a dramatic step in my look, but she helped me confidently rock that change. Can't think of another hair stylist that I would enjoy spending so many hours together with. I would recommend Sarah to all! read more

THE BEST! Sarah is seriously so skilled, professional, and all around welcoming. I HIGHLY recommend going to Sarah if you want to get a quality hair coloring experience. When I went to the salon my hair was a blend of my natural color, dark brown, and what was left from an old balayage job (medium brown tone). I had requested to have my hair as light and ashy as possible, which is exactly what the finished product was - a natural ashy balayage. The whole process took about 5 hours and I was amazed at how meticulous Sarah was the entire time. She would constantly check on each foiled hair to see if my hair was bleaching correctly and made sure that I was comfortable. I'm not exaggerating when I say that she is extremely nice and down to earth, which is pretty important when you're in the chair for hours. The best part of getting my hair done by Sarah is that it grows out beautifully. She also responds quickly to appt requests so don't hesitate to send her a message :) read more

Sarah is the best! I came in with severely damaged hair from a previous bleach job. She was very honest about what she could/couldn't do with my hair because of the condition. She really took the time to make sure that my hair was still preserved while still getting a look down! The total appointment took 6 hours and she still took the time to style my hair at 9pm. We also made an action plan for the future to help my hair become healthy again. Super satisfied with the results and would definitely recommend. read more

This was my first time getting an ombre/balayage. I went in with several photos and she spent a good amount of time going through the photos with me and recommending what would look good for my hair. She was very meticulous and spent a lot of care into my hair. My hair came out so beautifully, and its been over 2 months and it still looks great. Got so many compliments at work, and it felt like a great makeover for 2018. I got the purple shampoo and conditioner as recommended. Will definitely be going back! Posting my before and after photos! read more

Simply put, I LUV my hair! So lucky to find Sarah thru instagram. She worked her unicorn magic fixing my difficult and uneven pre-colored asian hair with highlights, toning, cut and color in 6hrs. She's an expert in her craft, with an attention to detail and super gentle on the scalp. Her lovely personality makes it so comfortable sitting at her chair. I really found a gem! read more

Glad I decided to trust Sarah with my hair. I've visited a handful of hair stylists the past years.. and it's been an extremely difficult time finding a hair stylist that will help me achieve my desired hair color with minimal damage. After experience with a handful of salons, I came to realize how important it is to find a stylist who is experienced and genuinely cares about your hair! I arrived to Sarah's salon with overgrown roots, brassy and crusty hair.. and left feeling marvelous! I am really impressed by the outcome of my hair. The color is beautiful, and even in my hair's poorly damaged state from previous stylists, she was able to help me achieve the ashy blonde color I've been wanting! Our hair session took longer than she expected (due to my hair's poor condition) but Sarah kept her initial quoted price. She is honest, experienced and very passionate about her work. If you're looking to get your hair dyed, I highly recommend Sarah. Looking forward to my next visit for root touch up, thanks for your service! read more
