    Jenny has done my hair twice now and I have another booked appointment with her in a few months :). I love that she was able to push my hair w/o breaking it...because I wanted to go HELLA blonde. My root is brunette, but not black like most asians. I went to 2 stylist before Jenny who were afraid to get me THIS blonde. What she recommended for me was to do a heavy blonde balayage and see where that takes me. I was super happy with my first session, but I am beyond ecstatic about how my 2nd session went. This is as blonde as I can go! So we're going to be maintaining this color :). Jenny is super knowledgeable and uses high quality products. I purchased the Virgo purple shampoo for brunettes from her and she gave me lots of tips on how to keep my hair healthy. All of which I've done, so it made going blonde less harsh on my hair. She is going to be my FOREVER stylist! I have 2 other friends that already have appointments with her, but waited at least 2 months b4 they could get in. So book in advance! Btw - she's located in Costa Mesa now, not Newport anymore :). Thank you, thank you!

    He caught me on a good hair day haha

    Jenny has been my hair stylist for last past 3 1/2 years. Time flies! My hair still feels healthy too. I love my balayage hair and we have awesome convos every time I have my appointment. Love her talent and love her! She tells it like it is ladies so remember to TRUST THE PROCESS!

    So here this goes.... Jenny is THE hair God. My hair has been through so much in the last 13 years. I color, cut, color, blonde, short, purple, brown, black... You name it I've done it. Jenny is obviously not the first hairstylist I've been to because no one is ever consistent. Jenny on the other hand has always always always been consistent. Her work is so amazing, and her talent is just incredible! I've been on a blonde kick for a year and Jenny has just given me such beautiful color. More importantly she has managed to kept my hair incredibly healthy in the process. She's gone about it in a way to build me into the blondie I want to be without frying my hair, and mind you I'm a natural dark brown. Her salon is super cute and quaint, and I always look forward to going in. Thank you so much Jenny for my beautiful ashy balayage!!!! P.s. Make your appointments early because she books up fast!

    Before and After.

    I came across Jenny's work as a stylist on Instagram. I think booked my appointment with her and was beyond excited to get a new look. I asked for a haircut and ash tone balayage. She straight off the bat told me that my hair would not come out exactly as I wanted. I had a picture of work she had previously done on another client. She then proceeded to ask me about my hair and I told her everything, from my first hair dye to the last time I cut it. She said my hair would probably not come out as shown in the picture but that she will give me a look I'll love. As she worked on my hair she was very attentive and talkative. I found to instantly bond with her and we found ourselves conversing for the nearly 5 hours I was in her salon. After she finished my hair I was so pleasantly surprised by what I saw. My hair came out beautifully! Although it wasn't exactly what I wanted it still came out beautifully! I just booked my second appointment with her, to go a little bit lighter! Thank you Jenny for your wonderful service and for making me feel beautiful!

    Second session!

    I basically wanted an ash blonde/neutral balayage/ombre but after scouring the internet, I realized that most balayages/ombres looked really bad with straight hair because there's an obvious transition line (and I wear my hair straight 99.9% of the time). But I came across Jenny and loved her work because most of her photos featured straight hair that didn't have any awkward transitions and it all looked well dimensioned (not flat)! One of my biggest fears was leaving with orange/brassy hair but since I didn't see that in any of her photos, I made and appt and blah blah... Session 1 I came in with dark virgin hair and Jenny told me it would take multiple sessions to achieve the color I wanted. After she was done, I hated it. It wasn't the look I had in mind and it was brassy even after she toned my hair. Jenny told me to come back a couple days later to retone it and it HELPED SO MUCH. I wasn't in love with my hair but it looked so much better after the second toning. At this point, I accepted that going ash blonde/neutral would take multiple sessions and I booked an appt for 2 months later Session 2 Jenny redid my hair and it looks AMAZING. I HAVE MET MY HAIR GOAL. For both sessions, she took her time and did a really thorough job with my hair. She painted it, put me under the dryer, washed off the bleach, toned it, olaplexed me, rewashed my hair, gave me a blow out, and even textured/trimmed my hair (out of the kindness of her heart). Even after the first session, when I hated my hair, she was nice enough to have me come in to retone it to make sure that I liked it. My only gripe is that each session cost ~$170 (w/o tip) which is pretty pricey since there are other salons that do it for $100. However, Jenny put a lot of effort into my hair so that its healthy, not orange, and dimensioned (I don't have to curl it for it to look good). I honesty cant see myself trusting another colorist and even though I've met my hair goal, I'll probably book another session to lighter hehe.

    Gorgeous Balayage always

    Jenny is honestly one of the most professional and easy to work with hair care stylist I've ever worked with. After hunting for awhile, I found Jenny's work on Instagram and made an appointment. I had to wait a month, but figured, why not. She's always been honest about how she'd be able to work with my hair. I came in with a terrible brassy balayage, and showed Jenny pictures of what I wanted. She told me it might take me a few sessions, but she'd get me there. Then after she applied bleach she noticed how orange my hair lifted and told me it might be really hard to get to where I wanted, just so I was realistically aware. Fast forward a few amazing sessions and I totally have a gorgeous colored balayage that suits what my hair could do while keeping it healthy! Most girls I know go super light, spend hours on the chair and end up hacking off their dry, brittle, broken hair a couple month later! Not me! I've gained about 5-6inches of healthy hair growth, with occasional trims. All the more hair to show off Jenny's awesome work! Jenny's also super professional, she works hard to maintain her schedule (I normally schedule my next appointment at the end of my session), and she's never been late (only one time bc the client before me was late). She has a sweet little shop of her own in the Phoenix Salons, super clean, quiet and surrounded by a bunch of other really great professionals! Jenny is fun to talk with (and ladies, let's be honest-- your time in the chair is the equivalent of girl time/therapy) and so easy to reach out to for hair care advice! Go see Jenny if you have realistic hair goals and respect for your hair's health; I promise you won't be disappointed!

    Fresh cut and toned hair

    I hate giving this review because I'd rather just set an appointment for next week instead of three months later, but she's just THAT GOOD. I've been coming to Jenny for about a year now. She started with dying my hair red. It's now a toned blonde bayalage with lighter roots. After I told her I wanted to lighten my hair to blonde from red, she told me it was going to be a process and it was! This is also including the fact that my hair is incredibly stubborn doesn't help the long process. Jenny is sweet and personable and makes you feel comfortable when you're in her chair. She's also honest too, which is rare for stylists nowadays where you feel rushed and they'll tell you what you want to hear. She is thorough and takes her time. She was even unhappy with the fact that my hair didn't want to lift at all the first time! I even went to another stylist a few months ago because I couldn't wait with jenny. I thought the stylist was sloppy toning my hair (she was sloppy, but that's a different story), but after knowing Jenny was being thorough with the toner this time and my hair didn't lift, my hair is just stubborn. I'll still trust Jenny with my hair. She has taught me a lot about my hair.

    I was recommended to Jenny by my best friend and coming from my best friend I had no doubt I would love her. Jenny did an amazing job! She did a color correction on my hair and from that point on I knew I found my go to girl...... When I sit on her chair I have no doubts and I let her do her thing....i don't even have to tell her what I want because she knows what best fits me and I always walk out the door a happy customer!!! Love this girls magic!!!

    I came to Jenny September 2014, my sister brought me to her as a birthday gift. Jenny was simply amazing! Her work is magic! I had a horrible experience prior to Jenny, my hair was in need of her magic. She created this beautiful balayage ombré on my aching hair. I highly recommend Jenny she's Amazing!! It's safe to say that I have found someone I can trust with my hair. Jenny I will see you in February I'm ready to go lighter

    I've been going to Jenny for almost a year and she is truly incredible! She really knows what's she's doing with your hair, and I love that she always tries her best to satisfy her clients. Not only is she great at hair, she is so easy to talk with and makes you feel comfortable. I always get so many compliments on my hair, I'm never going to anyone else! She is simply amazing!

    Happy with my hair!

    I moved back to CA from out of state and I was sooo worried I would never find a hairstylist like the one I had. I started looking on Instagram and found Jenny's page.. I had to call her salon immediately. Her pictures show the amazing work she does!! Now I'm obsessed! I never want her to retire!!!! Thank you Jenny!

    Left is before, right is my first time ever getting my hair done by Jenny

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!

I promise you, you will not be disappointed. Background: I dyed my own hair blonde from my natural Dark Brown color. Needless to say, I COMPLETELY ruined my hair.

[I absolutely do not recommend anyone ever doing their own hair.] Usually my hair grows in quickly, but after I have extensively processed & chopped the hair unevenly; my hair wasn't growing as it usually does. Trini to the rescue. I sent him inspirational photos & what my hair currently looked like but agreed to see it physically to decide what we could do about it.
