Finding the salon was easy and there was parking right out front, which made it even better. I stay in South Pasadena on weekends at my boyfriend's house, so I decided to give it a try. EJ was incredibly kind and welcoming. I arrived a few minutes early while he was finishing with another client, and he saw me right at my appointment time. He also offered drinks and snacks, which I really appreciated because I definitely needed the caffeine boost that day. He washed my hair and gave me the trim I desperately needed, removing all my split ends while still keeping my hair long just like I asked. I'm always nervous about losing too much length, but he really listened and delivered exactly what I wanted. His station was also very cute and calming, with plants around the mirror and a dream catcher. I deal with anxiety, so I really appreciated his relaxing energy during the appointment. I usually get my trims done in Beverly Hills with my longtime stylist, and I was pleasantly surprised that the price here was about the same -- $120, which is pretty standard for a good trim in Beverly Hills as well. Since I happened to be in the area, I thought "why not?" and I'm really glad I did because it turned out to be such a pleasant experience.

I always feel completely comfortable putting my hair in her hands. On top of being incredibly talented, she is SO sweet, personable, and just an awesome person to be around. After two years of seeing her, I can confidently say I wouldn't want to go to anyone else. If you're looking for a hair stylist, I would recommend ZZ to literally anyone. She's the best!!

I've had my make up done multiple times for weddings and such by other people but I was never satisfied. (Actually that's an understatement. I hated it haha) I did my trial with Yuri for my engagement shoot and I could not have been more happy! She's amazing! She really knows how to work with the features you got without over doing it, yet making you look fabulous in pictures. Her and her team of girls did hair and make up for me and my 5 bridesmaids for the wedding and everyone LOVED how they looked! That's hard to do with 6 picky girls! She sweet, she's real, she's accommodating, she's honest, and a perfectionist. Everything you would want in a hairstylist/ makeup artist. I would definitly recommend her and go back to her as my hairstylist!

Even my mother, who is extremely difficult to please, complimented my makeup and hair. My makeup lasted all day and night and photographed extremely well. I would definitely recommend Yuri!

I had an idea of what I wanted, and he was able to take that and give me a more elevated version of it. He definitely understood the assignment! I already got a lot of positive compliments on the new haircut. During the haircut, Vanilla took me over to the high-tech massage chairs. It was so nice laying there while getting my head massaged and shampooed; I think I actually fell asleep. I left feeling relaxed and recharged. It still feels too good to be true, but I was reassured that the massage and wine will always be complimentary. There were no extra charges. The salon also has their own parking lot, though I was able to park on the streets without any issues.

I told Melissa he's a high schooler and also needs a sustainable cut/style. I should have never walked away leaving my underage kid there. I was really counting on Melissa to figure out if the look he wanted was possible with his hair texture after she got in his hair. When my kiddo came out, he had a fro with undefined curls, I was shocked and I could tell that my son was not happy. He said he thought there would be further styling or cutting but that did not happen. My teen doesn't quite yet have his voice to speak up. Needless to say when we got home, he was in tears and he had to stay home instead of going to a dinner event. I called the salon the next day and spoke to Angie. I sent her the pictures of what he wanted and what he ended up with. She said they would find a solution immediately. However it's been over a week of text messages that have not been returned. None of my voice mails have been returned. I even walked in to the salon and Angie was out to lunch. I was told Nicole would call me back. That has not happened. I managed to talk to Angie and she promised she would talk to Nicole that day and get me a response. It's now been over 7 days and this has not been resolved. We walked away paying Melissa $345 including tip. And another $100 in products. Seems like we need a call back and definitely need a redo which they advertise as their policy if there is unsatisfactory service or a refund. I hope that if Melissa reads this or the owners, they might consider growing a conscience in the treatment we have received.

After hearing about Mia through a friend, I discovered her Instagram page and saw all the beautiful work she had done on other clients. I knew immediately that she was the person to go to! She was quick to respond to my inquiries via text and I was able to set up an appointment very easily. Mia was so warm and welcoming and I felt very at ease with her. Her studio was super chill, clean, and relaxing. She treated my hair as though she was working on a piece of art and it was as though she knew what I wanted more than I myself knew. I could not be any happier with the result of my hair. I would definitely go back and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a fresh new look!! I am so happy I found someone who is trustworthy and talented at their job and who is just an all around wonderful human being. Definitely a 1st class job in my books! read more

You don't have to think twice, just go to Sally. She never disappointed you!…read moreI used to be shy and not so confident about myself, but since i met Sally, it completely changed. I couldn't count how many time people give me compliments about my hair. My life is so much better when i got my hair done by her. Whatever you want, she get it for you, even more than what you expected. She's also a very friendly person, she knows a lot about traveling. So you're not only talk to her about hair but so many things else. I only come to Sally maybe once every 4-5months because i'm still a student and my budget is tight, but she remembers everything about me and she know exactly what i want to do with my hair So, say no more, if you want nice beautiful hair, book appointment right now if you don't want to wait because she has a lot of clients

Sally is your girl when it comes to your hair needs!…read more So let me tell you something about myself: when I'm bored, I tend to cut my bangs and then I mess them up to the point where people question my life choices. Sally, on the other hand, helped save my bangs when I thought there was no point of return. She also cut the rest of my savage- and uneven-looking hair and made it look normal (phew!). She knew how to work with my thick, Asian hair and she was able to tag-team with her assistant, Eden, to make sure that the whole mishap with my hair would not happen again. I'll definitely swing by when I'm ready to commit to the balayage since my hair needs more dimension; I just can't be too lazy when it comes to taking care of my hair. If you are interested in balayage, you can definitely check her portfolio on her IG - her handle is: bookwithsally. Thanks Sally and Eden!
