    Our brand new jacket was destroyed at the cuffs when asking for a length reduction. The sleeves remained the same length as before, with half of the cuff of each sleeve completely a mess and uneven. When confronted, the owner lashed back making remarks like "Don't you know how difficult this was to do" and "hmm I shortened it, but I don't know why this cuff is the same length?" And the audacity to have a disgruntled glare as if bringing up the quality of work was unnecessarily nitpicking. $35 was refunded but it really should have been the cost of the jacket. Extremely unfortunate circumstances. Highly discourage coming here unless you want your clothes ruined.

    Suzie is absolutely amazing! For the past 25 years, I've trusted her with all my special occasion dress alterations. She expertly manages expensive gowns made from intricate and delicate fabrics. Truly a professional!! Thank you Suzie!

    Suzie is the best! She is sweet and always does the very best quality work! Great value as well! Quick turnaround!

    Thank you, Suzie!!

    I needed an emergency alteration one week before my wedding and Suzie saved the day! She fixed an area on my dress that my previous bridal alterations lady didn't have the skills for. Suzie was quick and dependable. I can't thank her enough for turning a very stressful situation into a pleasant one.

    I've used Song's Alterations previously for other dresses and scrubs for work and I have always been impressed by the attention to detail, quality of work, and reasonable prices here. When I needed alterations done on my wedding dress and two of my bridesmaids dresses, I knew I had come back to Song's! Suzie did such a terrific job on all our dresses. On my wedding dress, I had the straps shortened, dress tightened at the hips, and five bustles put in! I loved how it all turned out. She did a great job at the bridesmaids dresses as well. I would highly recommend Song's for your future alteration needs!

    The most lovely Korean grandma! I came here by recommendation from my cousin to get my wedding dress and 2 BM dresses altered. She is super sweet and got my wedding dress done just in time even tho I'm sure she was swamped. The alterations were done perfectly and I couldn't be happier with the work and the way my dress looked.

    Suzie is the absolute best and so talented. I'm a pretty picky customer especially since most of my dresses, I ask for more than just an alteration. For every dress I've requested sleeves and she takes what I say and makes it better. I get all my dresses from windsor, so these are long formal dresses that I couldn't wear just anywhere, but Suzie works her magic and they transform into cocktail dresses. See my pictures attached to see Suzie's wonderful work. I've been coming here since 2019 and will continue to be a loyal customer.

    This is a hidden gem. I had take out from and noticed this place. I had to alter a clothing item in a hurry and the owner was so accommodating and did an awesome job. The price seems very reasonable. I had already dropped another item to get it fixed.. so glad I found this place.

    After - Just stunning! She brought the bottom of the dress up for a perfect seamless finish!

    See all

When I picked up my jacket 2 weeks later, one of the bottom pockets now has stress marks that line up perfectly with some new stitching they added, and there are now smalls holes in the leather patch that also line up perfectly. The other pocket has no issues, so I presume some error occurred. I returned (waited a bit because they were busy trying to find a customers clothes and kept going back and forth with them) and when I questioned this - especially the patch holes, they stated that they must've already been there and i didnt notice. They said they did not touch it, and it's simply a coincidence that they line up and are spaced perfectly with the stress marks. They also mentioned the stress marks are from pressing, whatever that means. But the other pocket had no such marks. It became a he said she said game and I simply decided I will not be coming back, since they repeatedly told me they could do nothing for me. They also hemmed and let out some Momotaro Denim for me. This was mostly fine except the stitching was also a bit sloppy. They somehow stitched over a belt loop which was strange (so a belt wouldnt fit anymore), and there was a large loose thread on the inside. Maybe I'm being nitpicky but you can look at the pics and decide for yourself. I gave two stars since the fits are fine and the clothes are perfectly usable. But the work seems rushed and the customer service lacking. If I'm paying half in the cash value of brand new articles of clothing in tailoring services, I expect better service and clothes returned in the same condition or better than when I dropped them off.

    Style Today was recommended by one of my favorite men's clothing stores. I bought a jacket and…read morepants I really liked - but nobody makes a suit that fits me off the rack. The clothes were nice and I wanted to look my best. I gave Style Today a try and the work was just perfect. Since then I have probably gone back a dozen times mostly hemming pants and shortening jacket sleeves. During my visits I've noticed numerous men and women with all kinds of clothing getting fitted - and never heard a complaint. I'm picky about clothes. I'm not anywhere near fashionable or stylish. But I like what I wear to fit well. It's a lovely little shop. Tina the owner and the other tailors and seamstresses are all working right there. They are open Tuesday through Saturday. They do excellent work. I've never needed anything in a rush - but have heard other people needing work turned around overnight or within a day and it sounds like they do their best to deliver. Oh - and Tina has a great eye: where sleeves should fall. Pants should be hemmed. Trust her judgement. I don't have the best eye for color and she helps me know what color shirts to buy. Sometimes I wish I could just take her shopping with me so I could pick out the best fits and fabrics and styles for her to make comfortable and attractive right from the beginning. Last time there was a customer wanting a total reworking of a jacket she had owned for several years and I watched as Tina explained what to do with the length, the sleeves, the width at shoulders and the tummy. As she explained it you could almost see the redesigned jacket taking form - and you knew it was going to look exciting and new. Wish I could be there to see when she picks it up. Try Style Today. You'll go back.

Where I live in South OC, most places charge at least $15 per hem, which really adds up. This place did it for $4.50, or $9 for the wide legs. Well worth the drive! I dropped off seven pairs and it was less than $40. The only thing I would have liked they gave me more clarity about was to let me know when I called that wide legs would be more. But I think that is pretty standard practice, so I wasn't too mad. This place is kind of hard to find because it is so small. My navigation was telling me that I had arrived and I wasn't seeing it until I saw the small sign next to the dentist office. It was unclear on whether or not we could park in the small lot between this place and the apartment buildings, so to play it safe if I parked across the street by the supermarket, which I really enjoyed visiting after. We don't have a lot of Mexican supermarkets in South OC where I live, so it was fun to pick up some things from there and made the drive out more worth it as well. Turnover time was great as well. I can't comment on more difficult or involved jobs because I didn't use them for that, but I highly recommend coming here for hems.

They only accept cash or check, no credit cards. A week later, I went to get my clothes, which was fast as well. I tried them on and checked to see how the alternations were. I then paid in cash, which was $36 for 3 of the items I needed to hem. I'm glad my friend recommended me this place because it was fast, straight to the point, and cheap! I'll definitely be coming back here for alternations if needed. Service: 5/5 Tip(s): - Plenty of parking spaces - Only accept in cash or check, no credit cards - Remember to bring your pink slip to pick up - It took me a week to get my clothes back for 3 items, so make sure to schedule ahead of time to get your clothes altered if needed

Beyond the pricing, the customer service left the biggest impression. The shop itself is quite run-down, stuffy, and uncomfortable, so a warm and welcoming experience would have gone a long way. Instead, I felt there was very little interest in earning a new customer. I won't be returning.

All he had to do was cut the sleeves off so up the side and then reattach the sleeve. When I came in to pick it up, the sleeves were not cut, they're two different sizes, the neckline wasn't cut to size and I looked like the background dancers in the goofy movie with the broad shoulders. There's so much bunching in the top since I have smaller breast and I pointed that out on Monday and he just kept repeating "I cut where I pin" anyone can do that. So since he was only going to cut what he pins, which was not our initial discussion, I took the time to explain. Show him the video again. I made it a point to make sure that he was going to be able to do this the way that I wanted before dropping it off because I would've spent more time looking for places that were capable of following instructions. Thankfully, I recorded our conversation and reported it to the Better Business Bureau. They just kept repeating the same sentence over and over again to the point where I started yelling over them and they started calling me crazy because I didn't want them to "fix anything" and I wanted a refund. Still have a destroyed unwearable jersey and no refund.
