We literally fly in from out of town every few months just so my wife can have her hair done by Stephanie, and that should tell you everything you need to know. She is hands-down the best. My wife is blonde and wears extensions, which takes a true expert--Stephanie nails the color every single time. The blonde is always perfectly toned, natural, and healthy-looking, and her ability to blend and maintain extensions is unmatched. They always look flawless and last beautifully. Beyond her incredible talent, Stephanie is professional, detail-oriented, and truly cares about her clients. You can tell she takes pride in her work and won't let you leave unless everything is perfect. The salon itself is beautiful and the entire experience is top-notch. If you're looking for the best blonde color and extension work in Newport Beach, Stephanie is absolutely worth it--even if you have to travel for her like we do. Highly, highly recommend. read more

If 5 stars aren't enough, I would give Steph all the stars in the world! As a platinum blond, I always have to consider the breakage, bleach, and process, as well as the way my extensions get put in and taken out and the quality of my hair. The owner Stephanie was beyond knowledgeable about the care of not only blonds but the routine for any hair color and care which made me so comfortable and confident! Never the less I WILL NOT BE GOING ANYWHERE ELSE read more

I ABSOLUTELY love stephanie & her work! Thank you so much stephanie shout out to you. I've had the most virgin hair forever and i've been to so many places that just accommodated what I wanted not what I NEEDED! Stephanie was so real & definitely knows what she's talking about. She recommended me a style that fit my hair type, face shape & what I also would prefer & i'm really so happy with my hair, the experience & her! Thank you so much, I recommend her to EVERYONE!! read more

Stephanie has done a FANTASTIC job with my hair! I have met her through a mutual friend and I'm so thankful she told me about her. I live in Alaska and have been going down to get my hair done by Stephanie for awhile now and she truly is the only hairdresser I have found that can give me a beautiful cut and color that lasts! She is a beautiful person inside and out and I have been so happy with the work she has done every time. read more

After years of having long hair, I decided that I needed a fresh new look to my 2021 experience. As women, it isn't always an easy decision to chop off our hair. However, I fully trusted Stephanie to work her magic on my hair and I LOVE how it came out. Not only did she chop off at least 12 inches (which I wanted), she fully restored my hair's shine and color. Thanks again Stephanie! She'll have you coming back for more! read more

I have been going to Stephanie for almost 4 years to have my hair done. I have not had my hair done from anywhere else since. My husband and children also get their haircuts from Stephanie. She is amazing at haircuts and color. The atmosphere is very relaxing and right by the beach. A great touch is that Stephanie always decorates for the different holidays which gives it a special atmosphere. Teresa has now been doing my nails and pedicures. She is very gentle, unlike a lot of other places I have tried over the years. I am very satisfied with the great service and highly recommend this salon. I have gotten my hair done at other salons in the past and have had my hair damaged but not with Stephanie. She explains everything and gives her recommendations prior to her services and is very efficient. Highly recommend this salon. read more

Luckily, I was able to get in and see Stephanie back in June before they closed everything back down due to Covid. I told her that I wanted something different, and I just LOVE what she did to my hair! She's great at what she does, she cares about her clients and they are what matter to her. The storefront proves it; Stephanie's Salon has been in Balboa for many, many years! Whether you are a tourist in town for the summer or a local, you will always look your best after visiting Stephanies Salon! read more

Stephanie'Salon - Perfection - Hair Salons Near Me - Newport Beach, California

My two-year old son actually discovered Stephanie... we were out one day in Newport Beach, where we live, and he saw tons of fun toys inside her salon. He waddled in, encountered her smile and radiant energy, and the rest is history. She magically soothed him into cutting his hair (which we could not do at home!)... then went on to style my husband's hair as well. Pretty quickly I realized I was outshone at home! Everyone else's hair looked amazing! That's when I started going to Stephanie myself, for cut, highlights, styling, everything - my hair now looks the best it ever has (she far surpassed what others had done before). Now, years later, she still does wonders for our entire family. It is no surprise that she, a mom herself, was named Mompreneur by Parenting OC magazine. But far more than just the service she provides, we each have so much fun visiting and spending time with her - she has become a friend. We will follow Stephanie to the ends of the earth! read more

Stephanie is AMAZING! She's not a hairdresser, she is truly a hair artist. She knew exactly how to cut my hair to fix it after all the bad haircuts I've had. She even gave me a good deal. I will for sure be back to see her for all future haircuts! Thanks so much Stephanie! read more

I could not say enough good things about Stephanie'Salon. It's located on the peninsula really close to the beach which is really nice but what makes it nicer is that the salon is a family run business. Every time I drop by Stephanie's kids are around giving that family vibe, they tend to hang amongst themselves are quite funny and don't distract anyone cutting hair. Some times even her sister or cousins will be around which is nice to see. Everyone in the area knows Stephanie because she is so friendly and outgoing. This place is so good that even All Star MLB players such as Hunter Pence drops by to get his haircut at this salon. I highly recommend this spot as I believe it is the best place to get your haircut in Newport Beach. I also believe there's a deal on yelp ($150 for $110) which you definitely need to take advantage of. Don't thank me for the awesome haircut once you check this place out, thank Stephanie. read more

It was my first time going to get my hair dyed and I went to Stephanie's Salon really nervous. However, she explained everything very professionally and told me since I had never had my hair dyed before, she would need to put in some treatment so that my hair remained strong and healthy. Stephanie makes sure her clients are satisfied and know exactly what she is going to do. She will prioritize the health of your hair while making sure you look stunning afterwards. I love how my hair turned out and I couldn't have asked for a better person to help guide me through the whole process. Thank you Stephanie!! read more

Stephanie is amazing! I went in wanting a trim and left with incredible highlights and layers! I was nervous getting anything done other than my usual but she made me so comfortable and it turned out amazing. Found my new favorite spot! read more

I have had a lot of great hairstylists but I have to honestly say no one has taken care of mine or my family's hair like Stephanie! Instantly she welcomed us and treated us like part of her family. As a neighbor on the Newport peninsula, Stephanie's door is always open to everyone anytime to stop by to say hi or drop in for a service. But the best part about Stephanie's salon is the pride and genuine care she puts into what she does. Not only talented enough to adjust to each of my families different hair types but works with us on how to keep our hair manageable with cuts that are long lasting; saving us time and money, while looking great all the time. She has cut my hair for over a year but recently transformed my color in less than an hour, doing so with one application of color, no bleaching and very affordable pricing! Today I stopped in a month later to make my next color appointment. She explained the way she colored it allows me to let my roots grow in longer and gave me advice on how to keep the color looking good in between. I've never had a hairstylist that has colored my hair in a way that makes the most economical sense. Although she has lost money on treatments that in the past I would've required, she has gained my friends and family's business for good. read more

Been going to Stephanie for about 5 years...she's the bomb. I basically let her do whatever she wants with my hair (color, cut). She knows hair! read more

i decided to get my hair done a few hours before a wedding, and am so glad a friend sent me here. my hair needed a cut, and while i was terrified to try a new stylist while out of town, i came home with the best cut i've had in years. she showed me a few magazine photos, played with my hair a bit, and was not afraid to tell me exactly what my hair texture needed to look great. and she was right. it was also the quickest cut i've ever had. and once i got home, it wasn't very hard for me to do myself. she did a great job with the half up-half down do as well. it's not a fancy spa place, but she knows hair, was entertaining and sweet, and got the job done right. thanks! read more

I love Stephanie! She's awesome! I totally recommend her to ANYONE. She knows everything hair.

I've been coming here since I was 19; I'm 26 now. They've seen me through many colors, lengths of hair, and hair styles. They have always catered to my unique style; never once imposing their own on me like some stylists do. They have even made suggestions that I've happily followed that fits with my aesthetic. I have lived in LA county for the past 4 years, and still make the hour drive down there once a month, and I don't plan on stopping. They are wonderful there and very personable, and anyone who is looking for such service should really book an appointment there. read more

Stephanie'Salon - Love my hair :)) - Hair Salons Near Me - Newport Beach, California

Stephanie takes care of some of my clients and for cut and color she is simply the best. She gave me a layered hair cut that looked great for a year and a half before I asked her to cut it all one length again so I can grow it out. She also colored my hair and got all the orange-y stuff out, unified the color while leaving depth and contrast that created a delightful shimmer right down to the roots. My hair has NEVER looked prettier, even covered all the gray and made it all smooth, shiningly healthy, fabulous! So grateful to have her as a resource! Furthermore, the girl has the "touch" I got a treatment along with the artistry. VERY relaxing-the kind of relaxation that only comes from someone who knows what they are doing and are loving to boot! read more

I have thick, dark, wavy hair that can be a challenge to manage and style!! Until a friend recommended me to Stephanie. Stephanie walked me through how she will cut my hair and showed me how to style it. The first time I went to Stephanie, I was enthused but also skittish...I have a hard time changing my hair stylist but something had to change! My hair was always bulky, took forever to dry and style...getting ready for work was dreadful...Stephanie gave a completely different feel to my head of hair! I couldn't have told her I wanted it that way because I didn't even know it. But she figured out how to give more volume at the top where it's needed, less bulky at the bottom, and make it look cute! I love my hair now!! It's so much easier to style and I get compliments on it all the time! Stephanie won me over as a client and I drive from Long Beach to get my hair done with her. Best decision I made for my hair! Thank you Stephanie!! read more
