I appreciate that she checks in with me to see if I'm happy with the progress at each stage of the cut. I will make the drive from SD just to see her. I'm not sure how my haircuts just get better with each visit (literally not exaggerating look at the photos). Booking an appointment is a breeze since she's so responsive. I want to gate keep her so bad but her skills and attention to detail needs to be shared. I always have a calm and peaceful experience at her studio. She has such a sweet and easygoing personality. I'll be back, Hyejin!!

Y'all, let me put you ON this place. Jessie/Jin is the best. The first time I came in was last year…read morefor a hair cut. I had just moved to the area again and wanted to find a hairstylist during my time here. I read a review that said she'll let you know her honest opinion and I'm so glad because for me personally, I would hate it if I came in wanting something and the hairstylist thinks it's ugly (but is quiet about it) and I walk out feeling regretful that I wanted to try xyz lol. My first haircut came out nicely after we chatted about what I wanted and what she thinks would look best, and she recommended me a brown I should try in the future. Today is that future time. It's my second time here! I came in knowing vaguely what I wanted (Some sort of lighter brown with bangs since I had black hair with no bangs lol). We chatted and then I simply trusted the process. She ended up giving me curtain bangs that can also be a little wispy also, and cut my hair to a length that looked soooo good. There was so much attention to detail when she was cutting too. It was great. For the color, she said that a lighter color might not actually look the best on me and a subtle brown might be better! I was pretty down for whatever she thought looked good so I trusted the process again. Let me tell you... this subtle brown looked so good with the cut. Also, my hair? Soft as HECK. It was kinda gritty before so I was shook when I touched my hair after the appt. She chatted with me lots and also gave me space too. It was a great balance and also she answered my questions!! I always have so many questions and she answered them all for me!! Including... how to style my hair because I suck at those things. I'll take any advice and tips I can get. Price is reasonable for OC too! TLDR; I walked in with messy hair that made me look dead inside and walked out with softer dyed hair AND styling knowledge. If that isn't a win, I don't know what is.

My hair was mostly…read morevirgin black and she was able to achieve the beautiful blonde that I wanted in one session and I'm so happy with the results! She took her time and is very meticulous and patient in getting every strand perfect. I was hesitant to get my hair done because it's damaged my hair immensely before but she gave me a lot of useful advice on how to take care of my color treated hair and recommended products that I've since tried and have been amazing in keeping my hair beautiful, my hair has never felt so nice after getting it done! Gigi is extremely experienced and truly knows hair, I'm so glad I booked my appointment with her when I so desperately wanted a change in my hair. Highly recommend! Location: she is located on the right of Red Castle in Salon 405, just walk straight in the salon all the way to the back. My GPS had the location in the Star Bbq building but it is definitely not there haha

I'm usually really hesitant to trust new stylists. I've gone to the same person for five years, but…read moremy old stylist had been complaining a lot while doing my hair and rushing through the process, so I finally decided it was time to find someone new. I'm so glad I found Gigi. I booked a balayage and haircut with her, and she completely exceeded my expectations. She listened to exactly what I wanted, took her time, and made sure everything blended beautifully. I felt comfortable the entire appointment, which is rare for me when I'm trying someone new. Her studio is located in the back of Salon 405, and the space felt private, calm, and clean. The whole experience was so much better than what I've been used to. My hair came out gorgeous. Soft, dimensional, and so fresh. For the first time in a long time, I left an appointment feeling really confident. If you're someone who has a hard time trusting new people with your hair, I honestly recommend giving Gigi a try.

A few months ago, I was getting ready for vacation and had always dreamed of getting braids. But…read morehonestly, I was scared. So many people told me they're painful and uncomfortable, not exactly what you want when you're supposed to be relaxing and enjoying yourself. I reached out to Lily and shared all my concerns. I asked her to be completely honest, and she reassured me that when braids are done properly, they should not cause pain or discomfort. That gave me so much peace of mind. We talked about the design and colors I had in mind, and the appointment itself felt almost magical. Lily didn't just do my hair, she brought a long-time dream to life . My braids turned out STUNNING. Colorful, flawless, and beautifully finished. The only slight discomfort I felt was when she worked on the baby hairs near the nape of my neck and temples, which is totally normal for such delicate areas. The result truly spoke for itself . I received endless compliments. I felt confident, beautiful, and ready for every picture, pool day, and spontaneous plan. I didn't have to worry about my hair for a single second. If you're hesitating like I was, just do it. Talk to Lily and trust her professional hands. She's talented, skilled, and truly passionate about what she does.

Her technique is also a true balayage that blends seamlessly and gives hair wonderful dimension, and I'm impressed by her ability to lighten hair in one setting then toning to get Asian hair to a more ashy, cool-toned since Asian black-brown hair tends to pull red/orangey by nature. You can see her work on instagram @hair_by_na_na She uses super quality products too like schwarzkopf and olaplex. I left with my hair feeling really soft and healthy despite the bleaching. I also like hearing from stylists what they recommend as maintenance. She was very thorough and detailed with her aftercare tips! - No shampooing for 3 days (she said water only is ok - not too cold or hot). This allows the cuticles to close while the color is getting deposited into your hair. - Start using a purple shampoo in 3 weeks to help keep brassiness at bay. - Use sulfate-free colored hair friendly shampoo/conditioner like Pureology. - Use something like Olaplex or K18 to keep hair strong and healthy. - In 2 months, come back for toning to refresh color. My balayage and cut took about 4.5 hours. Nana and Sean work together with the foiling and painting so it speeds things up. She provided a Fiji water and there's a little basket of snacks there too that you can munch on while she does her thing.

Linh made me feel very comfortable as someone who knows little about managing and maintaining my curly hair. As a fairly new mom with little time, I shared that I wanted a cut that would be easy and quick to style. I trusted her expertise and I am SO GLAD that I did! My hair hasn't felt nor looked this good in years! What I appreciated the most was her taking the time to answer all of my questions about styling and maintaining my hair. She did a great job at explaining and showing me the easiest ways to get the best results out of my hair. I will definitely be back!

Randall the go-to guy for the best fades in Orange County, hands down. I've been seeing him for a…read morefew years now, starting back when he was over in Costa Mesa. Even after he moved his gig to Tustin, I didn't mind the extra drive time - his fades are just that good. What's really cool about Randall is how he gets it. Some days I'm up for a good chat, and he's all in, but on days when I just want to chill and soak in the tunes, he's totally fine with that too. Every time I go in, he nails the fade I want, but he's always ready to throw in his two cents if I'm thinking of switching it up. The vibe in his place is just right - professional, but not stuffy. Long story short, Randall your guy if you want a killer fade and a laid-back, cool experience. I keep going back for a reason! PS: scheduling appointments through his website/ app is super convenient, not only is it simple to book, but it will also send you reminders the day before, and a couple of hours before too.
