This review is for guys. I have been coming here for a few months, and I must say this is the best hair salon I have experienced in SGV. I get a pretty simple fauxhawk, so difficulty/skills-wise it's not very indicative of what Aaron my hairdresser is capable of. But watching him cut hair is a pretty mesmerizing experience, he definitely has a chair-side manner that I personally enjoy. Oh if you are awkward like me, you might like to know that Aaron doesn't talk much unless you want him to, so the lack of awkward small talk is a huge plus in my book. The quality is consistently excellent and I have yet to have a haircut here that I don't like or that I don't compliments for. I would highly recommend this place if you're in the market for a new hair salon. Be sure to call ahead for an appointment! read more

5 stars!! This place is EXCEPTIONALLY exquisite! Though the place is hard to find (due to the fact that it's behind a former bookstore), the exceptional service is greatly compensated. Upon coming in, you are greeted with either coffee, tea, or water of your choice. Afterwards, a very nice employee washes and massages your scalp and hair. Needless to say, it was one of the best head massages I've ever had in a salon, haha. Then, the hairstyle asks what haircut you like, and he makes sure to understand what desired look you want. During the time the person cuts your hair, you're surrounded by a chic atmosphere, a lovely dog, and Great music while you sip your drink and let the hair stylist do magic. It takes the hair salon worker around an hour, more or less, making sure that the little details are covered and fitted for your desired look. When he/she is finished, they rinse your hair one more time to get all of the excess hair particles out of your scalp. The final touches are then added after your rinse. I highly recommend this place. Mr. Chiang was very friendly, detail-oriented, and saved me from a very ugly hairstyle. If your hair needs to be in a certain way, he teaches you step by step on how to do it. Though the whole journey costed $45, it was money well spent. I commend this place for its exceptional service, environment, and it's thoroughness and level of detail making sure you're left happy with your desired hairstyle. read more

Studio 79 - This place SAVED my hairstyle from an incompetent hair stylist at another place. - Hair Salons Near Me - Diamond Bar, California

This review is passed overdue. I have been coming to Studio 79 for about half a year now, and I am glad I found it. I first found Studio 79 when I went hunting on Yelp for a hair salon, because I had the urge to get an undercut with a design. This place had great reviews and I decided to book an appointment with Jerry. Amazing guy! Offered me water when I arrived and had a welcoming demeanor altogether. It was the first time I ever had an undercut, so he made sure I wasn't too nervous and talked to me throughout the session with small talk and jokes. I showed him a picture of the design I wanted and he got to work. A delivery man arrived in the middle of the session and saw the design, he told Jerry how cool it looked and gave me a thumbs up as well. I thought it was a funny interaction and I was already pleased before Jerry got a mirror to show me the results. I loved the fade and the angular design. After a hair wash and some finishing touches, Jerry also trimmed my hair so it was healthy looking. Two months later, my undercut grows out and I book another appointment with Jerry. He obliged when I showed him a different design, and he delivered even more than the first time (I gave him a bit more complicated design the second time haha). I got many compliments about how cool the design looked. Jerry is amazing and I appreciate his understanding and his willingness to put up with my selfish requests on what design I would like with my undercut. I'll attach a picture of the latest design I received from Jerry. read more

Today was my first time ever going to studio 79 and I was amazed with the work that Aaron did on my hair. When I went in my hair was damaged, dry, and nappy but I came out with healthy, beautiful and amazing hair i love my hair cut and I'm just satisfied. He explained everything that was wrong with my hair and the things to do to my hair to make it more healthy he even gave me a free treatment. The place is clean and so elegant I love the energy in the salon it makes you feel really welcome. I will definitely come back.(: read more

Great service, great hair, Michelle was amazing. She was very friendly and awesome! Good cut!! Being on the go all the time, this cut was great for the summer to come. I would recommend this place to ANYONE! Oh and for you Chrome Hearts lovers. feels like a Chrome Hearts store. read more

I had a friend send me a picture of her gorgeous new haircut from another place and thought I should do the same and update my do since it was getting boring. I had called Studio 79 after perusing Yelp and being impressed by the rave reviews and how trendy their customer pics looked. They were absolutely amazing, I called in at 2:05 and asked if it's possible to just get my hair cut before 3pm and Jerry slotted me in for 2:30. I got there at 2:31 and was warmly welcomed. I had just told him I am growing out my hair and would like to style it while it's growing out since it looks drab . Jerry worked with me and discussed options of styles and things to do with my hair . I love how much attention to detail he put in and how he discussed ways for me to work with my hair at home to continue which fewer hairdressers do than you would think. Thanks for the great hair update Jerry! read more

Being here for cut my hair for 3 years. Studio 79 is the best in the area. I remember that I was here about 3 years ago, I love this place so much, clean and gorgeous with awesome service! read more

Had my haircut by Michelle who is the newest addition to this salon. She joined about a month ago and she's great. She is meticulous when cutting and styling your hair. She pays attention to the client and the style they want. I have naturally curly Asian hair with varying levels of curl and frizz; I showed her a pic of Thandie Newton and the cut came out beautifully! I completely recommend her. The salon itself is beautifully styled and everyone is welcoming and nice. Marisa, who washed my hair, was also really gentle and thorough. The haircut price includes a deep conditioning treatment. I will be coming back for hair coloring! :) read more

Love the attention that they paid to my hair. It was my first time coloring my dark hair. They lightened it up to a beautiful color that I love love LOVE. Cannot wait to rock my new hair all summer long! Awesome hair salon!! Would recommend to all hair types/styles :-) read more

Love this place!! They were able to give me a last minute appt and came out feeling fabulous with my new cut!! Jenni is one badass stylist!

I've been planning to get a haircut for a while and I finally did a few days ago. I usually go to J's Hair Studio and I've been going there for a few years now, but when I tried to make an appointment, they informed me that my stylist went back to Japan and it was booked for the next month. So I began a search for a new place to get my hair done and came across Studio 79. I saw that this place had awesome reviews so I decided to give it a try. I brought my friend along with me because she needed to get a haircut too. We both had appointments for Aaron, and I have to say that he did a GREAT job on both of our hair! I didn't think I would be able to trust anyone else with my hair but Aaron changed my mind. He's going to be my permanent hair stylist for a while! :) Aaron is an AWESOME hair stylist and he gives tips about how to style your own hair and what he thinks would be good for us. He's a very nice guy and easy to talk to. He does a great job and he's very efficient! If you're looking to get a haircut, you should definitely try this place! you'll be happy when you leave!!!!! It's also easy to book an appointment! no hassles whatsoever!! :) read more

Marissa is ultra talented and her attention to detail in her work is simply amazing. The shop has a relaxed vibe with chill tunes and the chairs are very comfortable. I love this place and would suggest it to my friends. read more

Marissa!!!!! Guys hair cut~~~ trust!~~ she nailed the style down that I wanted! Will be coming back! read more

Went in for the second time and got my hair done by Leo Liu again. This time I did ombré with my hair! Leo did an amazing job with my hair coloring and took great care of me just like last time. I was consistently being asked by Maggie if I needed water or coffee. The service and environment here is absolutely fabulous and the workers here are all so nice! Highly recommended! I'm really satisfied with my second visit here :) read more

After reading all the yelp reviews, I decided to try this place out and requested Aaron as most people suggested. They were very welcoming. Especially Jesse, the assistant. I went in without a style in mind and had no picture. I just asked Aaron what he suggested, and he kind of asked a few basic questions. He then started cutting away. He didn't talk much though, not sure if he was just concentrating or he just didn't like to speak English (since it's not his native tongue). Talking wasn't very important though because he gave me an amazing treatment and style. I'm very satisfied with how it turned out. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because I thought the pricing was a bit steep. I'd still go back again to Aaron though. read more

Needed a haircut and found Studio 79 through Yelp. I called and had an appointment within an hour. Got setup for a haircut with Ethan. I'm very picky with where I cut my hair and this place was clean, well organized, and just nicely spaced. $45 for a male haircut, standard hair wash twice with head massage. Most importantly the cut was good. Ethan pays attention to detail and I was happy with the cut. Quick and easy. Would recommend. read more

Marissa has been cutting my hair for a few months now and she's been awesome! She always makes sure I leave the salon happy and with the haircut I wanted. She's an amazing barber! read more

Aaron always offer its clients the best hair products and styles; giving them a new, fresh and brighter look towards that special occasion. Listen very carefully of what you say, and he will help guide you by addressing you facial structure, and hair type. Always my best number one designer from my choice, give it a trial to make yourself different. read more

I've been a client of Aaron's for several years now. He is the most consistent stylist I've been to. Every appointment, he's been attentive to my needs. He asks questions to make sure he's giving you what you want. He's busy for a reason, so make sure to have an appointment. read more

I've been wanting the A-line bob for a few years now, but was always so scared to! I was too attached to my long hair. I finally said f*** it, hair grows and I need a change! My cousin recommended Aaron and I'd rather invest in my hair and have it done exactly how I want, especially since I'll be stuck with it for the next year. Although it was the most expensive haircut I've ever had, it was also the most different and satisfying. I was early for my appointment, and Aaron was still working on a client, so I sat down and made small conversation with another stylist that was chilling. I was offered some water as well. Everyone was generally welcoming and friendly! Then this huge German Shepard walks in from the back room. How often do you see that at a salon?! I LOVE dogs so I didn't mind it roaming around at all! It was so well-behaved and sweet. I began my appointment exactly on time, and once I told Aaron I wanted to chop my hair off, he literally took his scissors and cut all 12 inches off before getting my hair washed. A little scary, and to be honest I was a bit skeptical. I had my hair washed by one of the ladies, and holy scalp massage! She washed my hair TWICE and did a very relaxing scalp massage both times! I also had a conditioning treatment complete with, yes, a final head rub (hehehe). Loved it. Then back to the chair I went, and Aaron worked quickly at first, and it worried me a little, because a previous hairdresser worked the same way and left me with choppy unblended layers. But Aaron is just that good to work that quickly, but at the end, he really took his time to make sure the final product was perfect and even. I appreciated the fact that he also took the time to explain how to style blow dry and style my hair and his process of cutting. He literally made me look in the mirror several times to tell him if anything needed fixing, AND that if in a week it needs a trim, I should just call him and come in so he can fix it! My hair is so different but I love it! I ended up paying $65 plus tip. But with a scalp massage, conditioning treatment, and a hairdresser that really does cater to your needs, that's a fair price to pay if you want to treat yourself to a great haircut. The company of a cute German Shepard is a bonus. :) read more

This review is long overdue. I've been coming here for a couple years now, and I'd have to say my hair cuts with Aaron have always been nothing but the best every single time; however, every time I want to change up my look with a different color, it's a hit or miss. However, I do feel the need to say that Aaron goes above and beyond when it comes to customer satisfaction. He always makes an effort to correct whatever it is that I'm not satisfied with -- he really takes pride in his work, and this is important. Nowadays, I stay with the mocha shades, so no problems there. I just hate it when my hair comes out orange-y, and I find that it's a very common issue with dark asian hair. He has said that, really, only option is to bleach it, but in Aaron's defense, I've always been against that so there's really nothing he can do about it. I don't know squat about the science behind hair coloring. Moving on, Aaron does a fantastic job explaining his process, and his consultations are often thorough. Regarding their shampooing, Marisa does a great job. She left for a while, but now she's back! I seriously consider taking a nap during her washes. It's thorough, and there's always a treatment included. I can't remember what the treatment is for...but it makes my hair smell super clean and fresh. Overall, she's my favorite shampooist compared to all other hair salons that I've been to. Also, they offer Nespresso and mini Kirkland waters. And did I mention that they have the most comfortable waiting area ever? I'm actually wondering where they got them now. I could do some light evening reading in one of these. read more

Studio 79 - Interior - Hair Salons Near Me - Diamond Bar, California

Believe it or not, I've been going to different salons for over a decade. Studio 79 is the first salon I've been to more than once & for one reason: Jerry. Jerry is hands down the best stylist I've had & will continue to go to. Take it from someone who has been going to different salons since I was 13: don't always go for the salon that gives the cheapest pricing. Cheap pricing compromises quality--at least the ones I've experienced. You might walk in dreadful of your current hair situation, but you will walk out loving your hair like you've never loved it before...because of Jerry. You can thank me later ;) PS, get your hair washed by Maria. Just trust me on this one. You can also thank me for this one later. read more

I get my haircut here because Aaron does an amazing job. His ability to give your cut shape and style is superb. The environment is very welcoming and you get what you pay for. I live in downtown LA now and I still get my haircut there. read more

Jerry gave my boyfriend a wonderful hair cut. He's the type of guy who truly loves his work and it really shows. He'll spend extra time just to make sure that your haircut is absolutely perfect and he didn't mind my answering my questions about the new hairstyle my bf was trying out. It's truly worth the price and money. The studio is clean as well, and probably the most quiet hair salon I've ever visited (which is a definite plus). They even offer coffee and water for waiting customers. My bf and I will definitely be coming back to see Jerry again read more

Aaron squeezed my daughter in last minute and did an awesome job. She loves her new haircut!!

We tried this place out of luck, we were driving around Rowland Heights searching for a salon that takes walk-ins. This showed up first on our yelp list, and we decided to give it a try. Yoshi was my stylist, and I love the work he did. I was very reluctant trying new hairdressers, especially I haven't find one I really like since moving from Boston a year ago. The first few I tried messed up my hair. Gave me lots of layers, which I dislike. I had so much trouble styling it later on, and was not eager to cut my hair again. I have no complaints about Yoshi, except he REALLY take his time cutting my hair. Which is a good thing by the way. He doesn't chit chat like other stylist, and was very focused on cutting my hair. I told him I like my style clean and do not like layers, so he cleaned up all those layers and lightened the weight. I wanted to grow my hair long, so I asked him not to cut it short. He only trimmed off those that are dry and kept the length. At the end, he asked me how I want to style it, I said "however you like it", and he said "okay, I'll style your hair but you promise me you have to go out and have fun tonight". What a coincidence, because it was my birthday and I did plan to go out and celebrate. I went back again to Yoshi to give it a second try almost 2 months later, and this time I decided to cut it short. The result is needless to say satisfying. Although it is a bit pricy, but I really enjoy the service. Of course, the atmosphere in the salon is great. I think I have found my salon and my stylist. read more

I am very picky when it come to my hair. I have been a royal follower of Studio 79 for years. Why? Because I have been received the same satisfaction over and over. I've never been disappointed by the result nor their services. read more

Jerry's great. Ask for him!! He's off mondays and tuesdays though so make an appointment

I just got back home from this place and wow, I really liked how my hair turned out and it was a style that I usually don't go for :] Aaron really knows what he's doing and he's a really down to earth kinda guy! He's really nice and even told me a few tips on how to style and blow dry my hair. Plus he makes his own hair wax. My haircut was $45 including tip and to be honest, it was well worth it. Seriously. I'm definitely going back there as soon as I need another trim. Try this place out. You won't be disappointed! read more

My head was getting heavy from the weight of my hair. I mean super heavy to the point I was having headaches. It's been awhile since I've cut my hair and I just about had it with the length, so I started looking for a hair salon/stylist I could trust. I have thick, super straight, heavy, black, hip-length, asian hair that had grown out so long that it was basically style-less. Its hard to find someone who knows what to do with my hair. Enter- yelp. A salon with all 5 star reviews and a reasonable price. SERIOUSLY?! I called to schedule an appointment that day. Aaron was able to fit me in later that evening (yay!) As soon as I walked through the door he greeted me and found out exactly what I wanted, offered options on what would work for my specific needs, and immediately started cutting. I love how he told me what he was doing as it was happening and what each different cut would do for me. The service was fantastic, cut was everything I needed, and the man knows how to make you look good!! Really not much more you could ask for from your stylist. I'll definitely be going back for my next cut. read more

I usually try to get haircuts for as cheap as possible, like in Chinatown, but this time I decided to try something a little more fancy. I found Studio 79 through Yelp, and booked an appointment with Arron because of the reviews. I came in wanting to color my hair but without any clear ideas, but he took the time to help talk about different options with me. He ended up relayering my hair and doing a slightly lighter color on me, just in time for the warmer seasons. He also did a treatment after the coloring to prevent damage, I don't know if that's a common practice... I'm super happy about the result, my hair is so easy to style, or I can just leave it as it is. I never had much interest in curling or straightening my hair before but after he taught me a few tips I can't wait to try them out. The coloring was 95 and the cut was 60 (four times what I usually pay) but I'd still say it was worth it :) read more

It is always a wonderful experience coming to this salon for me. My hair is difficult to manage because it's really thick and frizzy, but Zee always works with me to make it look great! The salon itself is very clean and everyone is really friendly. read more

This review is for Marissa. I kind of don't want to tell the world how amazingly talented she is because I'm afraid she will become too busy to help me out again. I have a hate/hate relationship with haircuts but sometimes, out of necessity of needing to blend in with polite society I have to organize my shameful tresses. Marissa just 'got' me. She seemingly understood instinctively my so-called 'style.' I've never fit into any particular style category comfortably. Asian hair stylists tend to want to make me more feminine than I want and western stylists tend to over cut my sad thin hair. Don't look at my profile pic, that was me 20yrs ago lol. I will not defame Marissa's talent this way. Trust that she did a wonderful job that exceeded expectations and that she made a 45 yr old feel 30 again by reviving the shag in an epic way. read more

Aaron is awesome. As far as cutting short hair goes, he knows what he is doing. I was able to explain what I wanted and got more than what I expected! Aaron showed me different techniques to manage and style my hair, I never knew my hair was so versatile!! Highly recommended!!! oh and Seven, Aaron's dog, is awesome! read more
