I came here because my boyfriend recommended this place after getting his hair done by Kazuma, and…read moreI LOVED how his hair turned out. I originally wanted to book with him, but I don't think he was available, so Kenji did my hair instead. I was honestly nervous at first because I have extremely long hair, but WOW my experience was amazing. Kenji paid so much attention to detail and was incredibly gentle throughout the entire appointment. He listened carefully while I explained the vision I had for my hair and executed it perfectly. The haircut, wash, and blow dry were all amazing. The way they wash your hair here feels SO good!!! they really massage and scrub your scalp gently and even use a hot steam towel. It was genuinely one of the best salon experiences!!! I also appreciated how kind and professional Kenji was. He noticed some dryness/breakage in my hair and kindly recommended using hair oil, which I thought was really thoughtful. I also liked that he didn't force conversation the whole time because I wasn't really in a talking mood (I was really tired and I'm an awkward person), and he still made me feel comfortable and cared for. Throughout the entire process, it was very comfortable and great! If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. I'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend to my Latina baddies with long hair!!! they will take GOOD care of you here!!

I don't know where they get all these good reviews here because the owner of this salon is…read moreabsolutely unhinged! I came here to for a wash and blowout and even brought my own products because my hair has very specific needs. The owner refused to use them and kept trying to school me and tell me how awful my products were, even though they are high quality and expensive and THEY WORK FOR ME! The entire experience here was scary, honestly. She wasn't friendly or nice, started spewing some stuff about Jewish people, I don't even remember what she was saying, but I do remember she made me very uncomfortable. Would not stop asking me personal questions even though I was visibly trying to avoid them and give vague answers. My hair lasted about 20 min and became frizzy the moment I got home, with all the "wonderful" products she used. Ugh, would never go back.

PURE HUMILIATION!!!!…read more My recent experience at this salon was not only disappointing--it was deeply humiliating and, quite honestly, emotionally distressing in a way I am still processing. I arrived for my appointment having taken the time to properly wash, condition, and blow-dry my hair in advance. As a Black woman with long, natural hair, this is not a small task--it is a deliberate and thoughtful effort, often done to ensure the stylist can focus on the intended service. I used a product (Color Wow Dream Coat) which, unbeknownst to me, left a slight residue on my hair. Instead of approaching this with professionalism or even basic courtesy, Raphael immediately began making degrading remarks. He repeatedly told me my hair was "dirty" and even went so far as to call it "filthy." I calmly explained that my hair had just been washed and that the texture he was feeling was likely due to the product I used. Rather than offering a solution--such as simply re-washing my hair--he chose to escalate. What followed was deeply inappropriate and, frankly, unacceptable. As I became visibly emotional, I was accused of "acting too American" and was repeatedly called a liar. Being spoken to this way, in a room where I was the only Black woman present, felt incredibly isolating and targeted. The comments about my hair, my honesty, and even my demeanor carried an undertone that was impossible to ignore. At one point, Raphael stopped mid-service, leaving my hair partially cut, and told me to leave--refusing to continue. I was left sitting there, embarrassed and exposed, trying to hold myself together after being spoken to in such a demeaning way. Eventually, the owner stepped in and completed my haircut. While I appreciate that he attempted to salvage the situation, the emotional damage had already been done. Despite everything, I still left paying $255 for what can only be described as one of the most uncomfortable and degrading service experiences I have ever had. No client--regardless of background--should ever be made to feel ashamed of their hair, their identity, or their presence in a space that is supposed to provide care and service. As a Black woman, hair is deeply personal. To have that used as a point of humiliation, in a public setting, was profoundly upsetting. I am sharing this not out of anger, but out of a sincere hope that no one else is made to feel the way I did that day.

My visit felt almost like being in a spa and was incredibly enjoyable. What makes this salon especially unique is its selection of treatments sourced directly from Japan. I tried the Soda Spa, which left my hair unbelievably soft and incorporates CO-infused water. I also highly recommend the Hair Chemist treatment, especially if you frequently blow-dry or color your hair. It made a noticeable difference I left with softer and shinier hair. The salon itself is warm and welcoming, and the team is exceptionally talented. I left with an amazing blowout, and my hair has never felt softer. They truly prioritize both relaxation and results, making sure you leave completely satisfied. A special thank you to Rika, the owner, who was absolutely incredible.
