    Loose cut hair of different kinds right infront of chair I was just seated at.
    Ana P. P.

    Ive been in search of a salon nearby from where I live with reasonable $$. DONT LET THIS FOOL YOU. Not a difference in $$ for a regular haircut than other salons in little italy or north park. The woman cutting my hair seemed new to cutting hair. In general the place looks very tacky. Their products for sale, as well as shelves & installed hair drying chairs are FULL of dust. Loose cut hair everywhere on the floors. Mirrors are dirty. The place is tiny and everything is cramped in there- hair stations and nail (mani and pedi) station and the front desk. Just a mess. Very disappointing. Asked for a trim to cut my split ends, one length and didnt want layers. Woman asked if I wished to get my hair blown dry & I replied with yes. She finished & my hair didn't even look like it was professionally done- expected from a salon. Charged me $50 for a job that was a waste. Got home & my hair was filled with MORE split ends than before. Called them right away to let them know about my split ends & they scheduled me to come back but NOT worth it when they don't know what they're doing & coming from a dirty salon. They had decent reviews & I am so confused on why people even go here to get their haircuts. I'm not a karen, I just keep it real for people like me who wished to have had a realistic review.

    Not only is Esmeralda is a true artist in her profession, she is whitty and a pleasure to just share space with. If you are looking to be able to trust your curly hair with someone, she is your girl. She understands curly hair, I have a section of straight hair, that she blended beautifully. Happy, Happy Girl! Thank you Esmeralda. You are a true Gem.

    This is a joke of a salon to say the least. Very rude and the work is terrible. After $150 this was the end result. My friend was extremely uncomfortable to comment on the stylists work the second time around when he tried to "fix it". I walked back in to let the owner know of how bad this whole situation went just to get yelled at by the stylist the minute I walked in and said this was non of my business. As I tried to explain how he had made her feel and that was why she did not want to come back into the salon he refused to admit he had screwed up twice and was shaking the entire time he spoke to me. At the end of the day as a professional if you cannot handle criticism or own up to the fact that you screwed and immediately put the blame on the client AND feel the need to raise your voice then you should not be working in an environment where professionalism is key.

    Came here today to get my hair done for my brothers wedding and had an appointment with Marylou and OMG I absolutely love her!! So much so that in writing this before the wedding starts haha that's how good she is! I came here based on the reviews from yelp nervous because I know UpDos a lot of stylist don't like to do, but right when I got in her chair she said they were her favorite She was so sweet and nice and so easy to talk to! I probably annoyed her with all my chatting I showed her a photo of what I wanted I showed her 3 actually and kind of just focused on the last two photos because I knew the first one was more tricky to do, but nope she saw the first and she said she could do it and she did She absolutely rocked!! Any time I need an up do or any kind of do I will be coming to see her and will definitely recommending this salon to anyone I know!! Everyone there was so nice

    This place a small wonderful gem! Norma always does a remarkable job with my hair cut and color. She's always open to doing something fun and fresh. She also does my mother in law hair and is more the whiling to do conservative hear cuts as well. I just happen to enjoy color! She also does a wonderful job with my sons hair, he won't go anywhere else. WE DRIVE FROM RANCHO BERNARDO to come to Studio MG! We have also had put hair cut and styled by Malu, who is always smiling and ready to help. The salon us small and honey. Everyone is nice there, what I like best is that it is privately owned. Not some chain place like hair masters.. Yuck! They also have a mail person there. Only thing I would change is the chair I has my haircut in last time I was in... It's broken. Kept veering to the left and sinking. Norma kept having to adjust the chair during the haircut. Perhaps the owner could fix or replace it? Or at the very least trade it with another stations chair, I mean Norma's station is right in front, why would you want customers to see her chair isn't working? Over all, a 5 star place to go!

    First time here to get my daughter's hair done and love it! She had her hair dyed before from a different salon and it totally messed up her hair. We saw Isaac and he did a wonderful job! He cut, did a treatment and an ombre on her hair and it looks amazing! Defiantly coming back!

    Update on my recent visit: I had a facial and Gaby gave me a whole different nose. I dont know why…read morei have not done it earlier. I tried her Le Mieux skin care products for about a month now. The TGF booster and retinol was a game changer. She has such knowledge and curiousity in knowing the products and the science to it that you know you are consulting from someone who knows "skin" very well. Her goal aligns from my goal, which is having to use less make up in the end because you dont need to cover up what you already have: beautiful glowing skin. I went back to try out more products from Le Miuex and had another Brazilian and underarm waxing and felt well taken care of. She just makes it easy breezy and the whole experience of having such a good experience made me feel my time and money was well spent. I am pretty much a repeat customer now and I am so glad her spa is just 5 minutes away from my house. I dont usually do reviews unless i felt it is deserving and i wrote a review on her twice!

    I had to write another review for Gabriela, this time on her amazing skills with permanent makeup…read more Yes, she does it all. I did my lip blush tattoo with her and my lips already have a soft pink tint to them! (I am going to post my healed color 6 weeks post touchup). She is a master craftsman (craftswoman ) because she makes sure that her work is as impeccable as possible. She takes the time needed to make sure it's done right...and it sure is. She's also just the best at making you feel as comfortable as can be through the process. My mom also got her brows done with her and they are pretty!!!!! Before and after pics below. Of course I'm getting my brows done with her soon! No question!

    Audrea is not my usual lash tech, I was in a bind because I was in desperate need of a fill but my…read moreusual tech was all booked. She seemed very nice, easy to talk to, and I appreciated her fair pricing. Also she had very good reviews on Yelp. I saw her on 12/27/22. But since I don't go to her normally I couldn't help but compare her to my usual girl. Mind you I have been getting my lashes done religiously for 2 years now. Firstly, she told me I needed a new set (initially booked for a fill) to which I thought, "Fair, she's the expert, I'll go with her advice." She could've been way more gentle when removing the existing extensions. She pulled at the extensions and rubbed at them with whatever remover she used which irritated my eyelids. But I let that go because that part passed pretty quickly. Another thing I noticed is she didn't ask what shape or length of lashes I wanted. I'm used to being asked those things, plus if I'm ok with the length of extensions they're going to apply, etc. When I got home, however, I examined my lashes in the mirror and found that I couldn't brush through them. Somehow there was glue on the the tips of the extensions which I found weird. Also I noted during my appointment she had placed a full set in under 2 hours. Fast forward to today (1/10/23), and I finally got an appointment with my usual girl. She said the fans were unusually easy to remove, despite me washing them every other day and brushing them (when they allowed). She also said she could tell they were premade fans, which isn't always the way to go in my experience. The way they're glued together makes for a very unnatural appearance. She noted that there were multiple fans on one lash which weighed them down and she found a few that were stuck together. So all of this told me that it was a more rushed appointment rather than her being efficient. Overall, I'm not saying don't go to her or anything, I just want her to see this review and hopefully use it as constructive criticism and improve her techniques in the future.

    I have been going with Audrea for over 10 years and she continues to excel all of my expectations!…read moreShe is always learning new techniques and offers her clients the best quality service! Thank you Audrea for always being your lovely self!
