    Balayage and cut by Lauren
    Bea K.

    This salon is such a gem. From walking in the door you are immediately greeted with the most chic decor and the best kind of vibe. I came in for a cut and balayage by Lauren and she is absolutely amazing. She is a true artist and turned my blank canvas (plain dark brown hair) into a beautiful dimensional warm color; lighter brown mixed with the dark for a fall look. With a service such as a cut and color, especially something like balayage all my girls know, that takes a long time. It can be boring to just sit there for 3-4 hours, but it was such a vibe that I didn't realize how long I was there. I came out of the salon feeling like 10/10 and I would give this place 10 stars if I could. Lauren, you are the sweetest. Thank you for listening to what I wanted out of this appointment and for making it better than the inspo pics I sent! I will officially say I will now be a regular client.

    Carrie and Sean have been cut/coloring my hair for over four years. I am extremely particular about my hair. Upon moving to Orange County from Australia I researched and tried a number of highly rated salons in the OC until I finally found Carrie and Sean! What a relief! They both LISTEN to what you want and they give super helpful advice based on your hair type. They both have attention to detail and take so much pride in their work. They truly care about you and your hair. Trust me, I have done my research in OC. You do not have to look any further than Stotts Atelier.

    Lauren Fuller is AMAZING! She is passionate about hair and dedicated to making you feel like a true beauty. I have really thick, frizzy, and just obnoxious hair and Lauren was able to tame my frizz and make me blonde again! Not only did she make my gnarly roots match the rest of my hair, but she did so in a seamless way that looks as natural and healthy as possible. The salon was was clean and parking was very easy to find. Overall, had a wonderful experience at Stott's Atelier and will definitely be coming back!

    First off, I follow Alexis Aquino anywhere she goes! I come from DTLA to have her work magic on my hairs. She always knows exactly what to do for the frame of my face and right colors to use. It's worth every penny to leave feeling pulled together. Lastly, the salon is in a very safe well known area. Has parking which is always a plus and the salon inside is clean, homey with natural light and friendly faces. I highly recommend Alexis & Stotts Salon!!

    I highly recommend going to Stouts Atelier in Costa Mesa. Make sure you specifically ask for Alexis! She did such an amazing job with the balayage coloring. She was super professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and easy to talk to. She really took her time to make sure that everything came out well. If anyone is looking to get anything done to their hair take a trip down to Stotts Atelier and visit Alexis!

    Lauren is THE BEST! I will follow her anywhere. She is the only person I trust with my hair and gives me the perfect natural blonde every time!! She is so amazing at what she does, and makes time fly by because she is so fun to talk to!

    Stotts Atelier is beyond beautiful. There is so much heart and detail in the salon. The minute you walk in, you realize how special this salon is with its service, ambience, and stylists. You truly feel at home. My go-to girl is Alexis and I trust no one else with my hair! She is the sweetest, kindest, and brightest individual with such a big heart. She has a keen eye for style, cut and color. She elevates everything you set out to achieve for your hair and yet also finds a beautiful way to stay true to the essence of your own style. Lexi is truly the best!

    Lauren is a hair goddess!! She makes all of my hair dreams come true. Her color skills are amazing and she has given me the best hair cuts I've ever had, because she pays so much attention to the little details to make sure you walk out of the salon feeling your absolute best. Speaking of salon.... so stinking cute! It feels so "homey" and a place you want to stay and hang out just to be around the vibes. They took all of the precautionary measures needed to make sure every client feels safe in the space and I really appreciated that. This place is a 10 out of 10!!!

    Brittany S.

    Such a beautiful salon, and feels so homey! Sarah was amazing and really took her time to explain the process of what she was doing. She does amazing work and is so talented. I'm so happy with my results and and am thankful Sarah could take what I told her I wanted and make it a reality. Thank you Sarah!

    Post quarantine brunette by Alexis !!
    Brooke G.

    I have followed Alexis Aquino here from another salon because I LOVE her! She is amazing with brunettes and is a wonderful and kind person. She is endlessly patient with me when I cut my own bangs, use box dye , or any number of other hair sins. If you have hair growing out of your head, Alexis is your girl !

    After!
    Anna S.

    I went to Stotts Atelier to see Lauren and she did an amazing job!! She did a combo of some color correction and a full highlight/balayage. She also did a really cute long-layered cut for me. I'm soo happy she was able to lift my hair out of brassy mess it was. Also- salon itself is super nice and reeeeally cute. Can't recommend Stotts or Lauren enough!

    Maddie W.

    Shoutout to Lauren Fuller for being the best at blondes! She is seriously the best. I always do highlights with a root shadow and the grow out always looks so natural. She also cuts the best bangs for anyone who is in between on getting them! And the salon is also super cute too!

I remember feeling extremely nervous the first time I lightened my hair, worried about potential damage. Thao guided me through the entire process and reassured me that she would keep my hair healthy while also making sure it remained low maintenance. Over the years, I've gone from dark to light and back to dark again. Each time, Thao has been incredibly professional and patient. I remember sending her numerous inspiration photos, and she was always honest about what was achievable with my hair. Without causing any damage, she successfully lightened my hair without it ever becoming brassy. Keep in mind when you go light, you have to get it toned and maintain your hair or it could potentially get brassy. Thao is very personable and always makes me feel welcomed and comfortable--like she's not just my hairstylist but also my therapist. I constantly get compliments on my cut and color, thanks to her. Whether it's your first time getting your hair done or you've been coloring it for years and need someone new you can trust, I highly recommend Thao!

The last time was with hot stone. But what I didn't realize or notice was that as time went on, she just kept cutting my hair shorter and shorter until I had a rats tail. To be fair, I used to straighten my hair every day bc I thought it was ok. I'm also over 40 and I've had a child. So my hair is probably naturally thinning anyway. I called in October to make an appointment and was told that Asako is now retired and the deep conditioning treatment is more expensive. I asked what the difference is and Rei told me its just different. I couldn't get an appointment until about a month later. The vibe here is not warm and fuzzy and to be candid it never really was - I always felt the stress in the air. It's hard for me bc I'm pretty loyal and of course want to support my people but dude my hair is ruined. I had to cut my hair short which I haven't done in over 15 years. I've always been clear that I wanted to keep the length. I'm not sure what happened here but I feel disrespected. I always tipped 20%+ which is at least $40 for a hair cut and deep conditioning. Aruka/Asako you need to do better. I hope you take care of yourself.

What really impressed me was her thoughtfulness -- she noticed that my roots had grown out unevenly in color, so she went ahead and blended the color to match the rest of my hair.
