I got my haircut by Tasha. She cut it exactly how I asked. I also got my bangs trimmed which is something that I don't let any person do. I felt confident based off of her photos posted on IG. I also asked for hair suggestions and she explained some products to me I didn't feel forced into products like previous spots I been to. I really liked that. I got educated on my hair and look forward to changing up the routine to help my hair stay healthy. Thank you!!

I made an appointment here in Yelp with Christine, and she made an appointment for me with Ariel. She was timely in responding to my questions. I was curious as to whether or not my face shape could pull off bangs, and I had some questions on the shape of my bob. Ariel was SUPER friendly and helpful. We discussed exactly what I wanted before she began and even before she started cutting my bangs she made sure I was going to be satisfied. When styling my hair she even added suggestions and tips for how to style my hair. The inside is so cute! Their music is awesome! 10/10! This is my new spot.

Sylvia is the girl that I go to and she kills it every time! My hair went from black to this perfect red. I highly recommend booking her!

After I did my hair. Full head of highlight.. dont mind the kissy face.

Wow! I seen this place a couple of times across the way from Show down Tattoo but never asked about it. So when I went with a friend to the shop I asked about them because I had seen their outstanding wall paper & they said It was a continuous of their shop Called Show down Beauty Parlor! I quickly raced over and ran into a receptionist who was rather too good to talk to me and my friend. She was a tall dark woman with long black hair. She was really no help and said we would have to go back to where we went to get our RED & BLACK highlights done because she didn't know the placement. So me & my friend just left.. it was for her hair Btw. WELL, shortly after I checked them out on Facebook and seen their work and was really interested so I called and asked for an appointment to get some highlights done. Right when I got there and met Nikki we became the best of friends! My permanent Hair Stylist for sure!! :D She made me feel so comfortable and we had the best conversation. Everyone else was busy doing Errands so it was just me and her but she sure made me feel at home! * They have gummy bears & Mimosa's for the meantime.. I ate a cup of gummy bears! Awesome snack! They also ask if you want more and I couldn't resist . They definitely take care of you! This place may be slightly small but I think since they are barely up and going its perfect since it makes a more better personal experience & you always want to feel like the person doing your hair really cares about you as a person not just because your going to pay them after. Nikki was perfect, She'd let me know WHAT was going in to my hair, HOW she was going to put it in, & WHY it was good for my hair as well! LOVED HER. Soon the other girls came back and we all chit chatted and got along rather well! Don't judge a book by its cover these girls have big hearts & Personality's to match their amazing looks! They have tattoos and awesome hair extensions and nice makeup so they can be intimidating but immediately you can tell they're the sweetest girls!! Well, my end result was that I did a full head of highlight Red and blonde but unfortunately my hair wouldn't be able to handle to blonde so I would have to go back in a couple weeks to re do them.. I actually like the color so I just decided to stay with it but once I get some $$$ I'll def be back for my 6 month hair cut & maybe some more Gummy Bears! Over all, awesome experience only down side was that they wanted to charge me $110 again to re do the highlights.. & I thought it was a little too much. Other than that they're awesome guys!

Can't help but take a selfie every time I get my hair cut

This salon is a hidden gem in Walnut! It's located next to the tattoo parlor, but in a separate building. Tiny lot but I've always found a spot to park. I've been going here shortly after it opened and haven't switched since. I don't do anything fancy, just trim and blow dry...but I prefer to let Nikki touch my hair. I get straight bangs and she always know the perfect length I want, and is very understanding and appreciative of my long hair! I've come across many stylist who just want me to chop it off, but Nikki will tell me "don't ever change!"...I love that. I'll chop it off when I feel like it! I just love her personality and we hit it off right off the bat, which is why she is my preference. I've also gotten my hair cut by Susie and Andrew (if memory serves me correct) when Nikki wasn't available, and they got it just right too! Andrew is a wizard with the hair dryer. If you're looking for a trendy and edgy salon, this is the place to go. If I ever decide to take the plunge and cut it off or dye my hair red, I have already decided to do it here. Also Christine (I believe she is the owner) is super nice! I appreciate the one day I wanted to get my ears pierced post haircut, she opened up the tattoo parlor for me and did it...they came out perfect! I'll save that for a separate review though.

I have never found a hair stylist that I loved, until I met Suzie. She is truly talented with coloring hair and the price is VERY reasonable. The salon has a great friendly vibe, I went from a brown ombre to pink and purple and I am in love. I recomend Suzie to all my friends!

Hair disaster? No problem. Come to Showdown Beauty Parlor, and they will save you. I ABSOLUTELY love, love, LOVE Susy!! I will definitely be coming back.. she is my hairy godmother!!! She knows exactly what she's doing, and she's super professional & kind. Showdown is lucky to have you. I'm sure you make many customers' hair dreams come true.. just like you did for me. Thanks, Susy!! You're the BEST. Thanks to Tasha as well for being so helpful & friendly. See you girls next time!!!

Loved everything about this place ...... I went from black hair to a honey blonde by Sonia loved it I was so afraid to get my hair don't but she is just the best person and she did an amazing job I couldn't ask for anything better I also got the I tip extensions done by Nikki the best I love her energy and made me feel like I was in great hands... She is such a sweet heart.... I just found my go to girls for my hair.... I highly recommend this salon love love love love love them and their work

Victoria M.

We thought we'd give this place a try as my daughter was in serious need of a haircut. Her ends were stringy, dead, and uneven because it had been so long since her last cut. Now it looks beautiful and healthy while maintaining a good deal of length. Tasha was friendly and inviting, and she kindly offered us drinks during our wait. Very pleased

Before iTip extensions, hair color by Berd! Also my hair before it got ruined at Ulta

Marissa B.

This review is a shoutout to Berd and Nikki! Everyone here is super sweet and a master of their craft! I've been coming to Berd since 2014 and she does an amazing job with hair color! I've had her dye my hair dark and bleach it super light. I swear ever since I started coming to this salon I've gotten so many compliments on my hair from friends, family, and even random strangers when I'm out and about! Berd does such a wonderful job and I am so lucky to have found her! Nikki I come to for iTip extensions and she does a wonderful job as well! She is fast and more than fair with her pricing! I've searched everywhere for a decent price to have extensions put in and no one beats Nikki. I've had extensions done elsewhere and they ruined my hair due to teasing (as seen in photos). Nikki is seriously the best and I wouldn't recommend anyone else! This salon is a hidden gem and you're lucky if you come across it!

I'm so glad I found this place! After years of getting blue and purple highlights, I decided I needed a less-harsh alternative to fulfilling my highlight dreams. I went to Nikki a month ago and she did such an amazing job. I didn't have an appointment and she had literally 30 minutes before her next appointment so she sat me down and, man, this girl WORKED. Not only did she change my u tips to i tips, but she got them in and adjusted them as I wanted - all in 30 minutes! Yesterday I went back to get them tightened and to add some more highlights. Again, amazing job!! I wish I had some photos but they look sooo amazing. Awesome peek a boo blue and purple highlights. She even snipped the ends so they wouldn't poke my scalp. How considerate is that?! If you want extensions, Nikki is the person to go to. I know where I'm going for all my future trendy hair needs! read more

I have to say the 5 stars are 100% right. All the ladies in that salon take TIME to make you feel like you matter. This happens way before even agree to come in. The phone consult was so awesome and the promise to call me back was even sooner than what was promised. I was reassured that my hair issue would be addressed by an expert and that I would be taken care of. My hair dresser, Suzy is so adorable! She has one of those faces you just fall in love with. She is pretty, young, mature and has just a touch of an edge. Her skills are up to date and go into the expertise level when dealing with damaged or other hair issues. This girl saved me from another year of misery and got me my old hair style back that I have loved. Her knowledge is so vast! from special tricks of texterizing to help aging hair to product that does magic. I was able to have my old hair cut back spiked in the back using a special texture powder when I was suffering with that disgusting Topix crap in a certain area. Because of her and this salon a miracle happened for me and I feel like I got my life back! Not to mention the girls are so cool to chat with, laugh with, from tv shows to hair, this salon has just the right flair! read more

My hair colorist and stylist: Tasha gets down like James Brown not only does she keep it color funky which I dig the most but she has knack for making sure her cliental is always satisfied. Her work is compelling and her consideration for unhappy work has her determined to be, "the fixer", "holy hair healer" if you will... Every time I go to her, I walk out feeling myself and boosts my confidence as a woman who can have a classy look yet a splash of edge.

I respect an artist's skills, but it still needs to line up with what the customer is asking for and it does here. People complain about $50 for a guy's haircut.

You get a proper wash, a quick head massage, and you leave clean.

On Saturdays, she does get very busy with up to 1.5 hours of wait so for that reason, going on weekdays is best. One nugget of info, if you are running late and it's close to closing, call her, she'll wait for you. I don't know how many businesses will do that. Thank you Grace. I am a loyal customer.

I really liked this place however they keep jacking up the price every time I went back.. : ( They want to charge 45 bux for a hair cut as if they are Aveeda salon! If these young ladies knew their prices and were not trying to capitalize so much on product ( yeah I got charged almost 10 dollars over the product price) they have, then I would gladly come back. Just be prepared to drive around the block a few times. Hard to find.. Its in a shady part of town with rod iron over the windows and next to ta tattoo place. you have to park behind the tattoo place.. if you park next to the salon you'll have to move.. They really need a better place. The hair cuts are great. Never had an issue.. its was just the lack of good business skills. In the 4 months I was going there, jacking up the price 3 times is a bit much.. 25 then 30 for the the second visit which was just a quick trim and not even half the work of the first hair cut, yet I paid more for it.. then I go to come back and was told 45 : ( I didnt even bother.. If it is up to the stylist on how they individually price the hair cuts and whether your a returning customer, then be transparent in your business acumen and say that darlings! There is nothing wrong with being honest. it is decorated very nice inside and clean. read more

Came to get my hair done in January, I figured, I'm almost 23, its time for a big girl haircut and it was just in time for my 4 year anniversary! Antonio Luis (Tony) did my hair, he explained everything he was doing and how i should wash my hair and blow dry it. I was doing everything all wrong for the last 22 YEARS!!! Shampoo everything and only condition the tips (thanks tony) !! After he cut my hair, he worked wonders with just a round brush and blow dryer, no need for curling or flat iron. My hair was so voluminous and bouncy, and it literally stood like that for 2 whole days!!! The decor in this salon is super cute pink and black vector with black and white stripes in the shampoo area. The entire salon was very clean including the items they used to cut my hair with. When I went there they had only provided shampoo, haircuts, hair-dos and dye. Now they offer a wide variety of things from a simple shampoo to a wonderful tan! and even the application of extensions and make up! Prices here were VERY reasonable, the staff not only was super friendly but they had an extensive knowledge of product, and KNEW WHAT THE HELL THEY WERE DOING! Right now they have a special $25 for a relaxing shampoo and an amazing blow dry. Cant wait to get my fro done again :) read more

Love love LOVE Showdown Beauty Parlor! This place is seriously my holy grail when it comes to being groomed. I've been coming here since they opened a couple years ago and I don't know how I haven't written up a review until now. I think what ups this place even more is that they are now an aveda salon because the products they have used on me work wonders!! Even had to buy a couple products with me to take home ;) I've never had a bad experience at Showdown. I've pretty much been groomed by all the stylists that work there and they ALL know what they're doing! Even took my boyfriend here recently when he was in dyer need of getting his hair fixed when we tried bleaching it ourselves but came here at the last minute & they came to the rescue!! So thank you so much to the Showdown stylist team, you never dissappoint! You guys are amazing!! read more

The hair cut was good I originally have short hair she just added layers framed my face pretty nicely...I saw a client that was leaving right before i got there she did extensions on and I'm definitely getting them done for my wedding this month! read more

Sonia Silva at Showdown Beauty Parlor has been my hairdresser for years. She's done miracles to my hair. She always colors my roots and puts highlights in my hair. I've seen a few of my co-workers who have also gotten highlights elsewhere and their hair is damaged. Sonia uses the best products on the market which I believe is the reason my hair is so healthy after the highlights and color. The best part of my visits is Sonia is hilarious and a very good listener....she gives the best advice ever......thumbs up for Sonia read more

I've been to Showdown Beauty Parlor a few times. I don't usually trust just anyone with cutting my hair, but when Tasha cut my hair, I knew she was my girl. Right off the bat, she was very professional and super friendly. When I came in, my hair looked lifeless and my ends were VERY damaged. She handled my hair with professionalism and care. I walked out of the salon with beautiful, healthy locks. I've honestly never been happier with my hair. I recommend Tasha to anyone who wants a quality hair cut and exceptional service. read more
