I found this salon off of tik tok by searching " affordable oc hair salons." After reading hundreds of reviews I took a leap of faith with this salon. I read thay Julie and Andy were the best so i asked for either or. I got Julie and needless to say incredible. Affordable and stylish haircut. She gave me exactly what I wanted and had a great overall experience. I am Viet and able to communicate which made the process easier and more welcoming. She reminds me of an auntie in my family. She also gave me a blowout, which many salons overcharge when you ask or don't even give you one at all. Can't beat a 30 dollar haircut that looks this good. My bestfriend also went with me and she now wants to come here with Julie because her normal haircut is 120+. Overall great experience and I think my hair looks fabulous!

Julie very professional and patient and sweet person very good service. really recommend this placeread more

Not only did he mess up my husband's hair but also my husband's friend went to get a haircut and got the same stylist and his haircut got messed up as well. My husband and his friend both showed video and picture references and the stylist didn't even finish looking at it and went straight to cutting. My husband's hair is literally a bowl cut in the front and in the back. His sides are long and bushy as well. There is definitely no blending going on anywhere. I would definitely recommend making an appointment with someone else instead of walking in. Seems like walk-ins are all given to the bald man.

This was my 3rd visit to Lovely's! I live 1.5 hours away, but it's always worth the drive to make a…read morefun day trip out of it. Thoa cut my hair on my first visit ($30 dry cut), and Kim did my last two ($40 wash & cut). Both are highly skilled, and I've walked out happy every single time. The salon is clean and simple, and booking by text is super easy. This time, my mom came along and decided to get a root color and cut ($95). Since we went on a Friday afternoon, Kim was able to fit my mom in right away, briefly pausing on my style to apply her color. When the shade didn't hold after the first wash, Kim kindly reapplied it, and my mom was happy with the end result. As for stylist vibes: Thoa is quieter, while Kim is bubbly and very friendly. Kim was also super responsive when I asked for a firmer scalp scrub during my wash. We both loved our visit and are looking forward to returning in December for my birthday!

Cô Thoa strikes again! I went back to see her today and I am absolutely obsessed with my new hair…read more I wanted a vibrant balayage with red tones, and she delivered beyond my expectations. I showed her an inspo photo, and she completely nailed it--the multi-dimensional red and rose tones came out absolutely stunning, and the blend is completely seamless. I am always amazed by Cô Thoa's memory. Even though I only visit once a year, she never forgets me and treats me just like family. She knows I prefer low-maintenance hair, so she customizes the color so it grows out beautifully without harsh lines (perfect for my lazy upkeep!). Her prices are incredibly reasonable, and her quality is unmatched. Whether you want a quick trim or a complex color change, Cô Thoa is the absolute best! Love her!

Came here to get my nails done and hair done for a photoshoot since many other places have messed up perming my hair. Perming my super long stubborn straight hair is rough but Nina did it. Well worth the money! Ive gotten my nails gelled here before and working on cars and constantly running hands thru water.. it stayed on quite long. Tien was the girl who did it. Her techniques are great and she didnt hurt me at all. Highly recommend! lily did my full on bikini wax and pits. She is very detailed with her work and i also recommend her!

Vivian will complain every time you come in to fix the poor job done on your nails. They'll rush your manicure even though you called ahead of time to make an appointment for the walkins that come in for them to make more money because they're greedy here. You get what you pay for here and that's why they have "deals" Monday-Wednesday for 4 hours. Every time I went in some poor lady would come back upset because her nails broke 2 days later after getting her manicure or within 5 days. They'll blame you every time for it too. Their facility is not clean at all and the restroom there will confirm it. Their nail products are old and expired as well. They'll play nice until they get called out for their lack of consistent work and blame you for the nails not lasting long when it really is all about how they prepped your nails. You're not saving money if you're having to go back every week and you're better off paying an additional 20 dollars for a longer lasting manicure.

I have looked hard for anyone closer to me, and have only found one many years ago in Pasadena. But that one didn't do as great and thorough a job as Loan does.
