Yolanda O.

So I'm writing this review for the overall hope for improvement for the next clients as I won't make the commute to come back for corrections, I commuted from Encino to Fullerton about (1 & 1/2 hour ) drive. I was super excited to come get my hair done by Alyssa. I follow her on TikTok and I truly thought her work was gorgeous. Upon arriving to the salon, I was pleasantly surprised I was taken to be seen on time at 9:15am. We went over what I was looking for and how I wanted to have something with a noticeably difference. Past experiences I have gotten my hair dyed and felt it looked almost like it was just a touch up instead of whole new color. I expressed that, Alyssa understood. She stated I need a blow dry and wash since build up to get started. I definitely think during booking the reception should say please come with your washed hair but I digress. We washed and blow dried my hair and was done at 10:00. Her assistant said Alyssa will be right with you, as she was wrapping up with her first client.. about 35 minutes later we resume, which I found a waste of time. But stuff happens, I understand so I thought that would be a one off of waiting long period with doing nothing. We did a full balayage for $500 dollars. Since I've had balayages done before I anticipated about 3 hours. While foiling Alyssa mentioned the service will take 4 1/2 hours. Longer than usual but that's okay for the work she does. Since we bleach my hair, she said okay everything is looking as expected well wash out my hair some sections 10 minutes and the rest 30 minutes. She then starts her 2nd client in between my appointment slot, which again I don't mind because I'm lifting color. But then the time frame she gave comes and goes .. I wait 40 minutes go by .. 50 minutes go by and then we finally wash it out. Once done washing she said okay a treatment needs to sit in my hair for 10 minutes and she's going to mix my color in the meantime. Nope.. I then wait at the sink bowl for 40 minutes, just waiting. In my opinion, yes she can resume with her second client but apply my toner while I'm waiting 40 minutes. It's now already 2:00pm been 5 hours since the start for my appointment and all we've done is highlights... All this to say my appointment process continues to go like this. Alyssa is with me for maybe 20 minutes at a time and I'm left waiting long periods, whatever the task at hand needs to develop add about 30 minutes of additional waiting. I finally finish my hair at 4:47. My hair looks brown.. I paid $550 with tip, for brown hair/ grays still showing at the root and was there for 7 and half hours!! (9:15-4:47). Biggest disappointment , my hair doesn't look bad but I've been to other stylist for $250 and had the same out come and was in the seat for two hours. She was severely over booked and customer service lacked. Communication goes a long way, a thank you for waiting during long duration would've been appreciated.

Really disappointed with my second visit with Mia . My first appointment went well, but this time felt rushed (about half the time), and my hair was cut before and after being styled while curled--making it hard to see how uneven and choppy it actually was. My appointment was also postponed the day of without a call or text. I only found out through Vagaro via email and had to reach out to Mia myself, which felt very unprofessional. When I noticed the uneven cut, I requested a refund multiple times and was refused. I also didn't feel comfortable going back to have it fixed. I'd recommend asking not to have your hair cut after it's styled, since curls can hide unevenness, better yet don't get your hair cut by Mia at all. Overall, very disappointed and now I have to pay to get it fixed elsewhere.

Color correction and hair cut done

I am so happy I came to Thereze for my hair. The outcome is everything I hoped for and she was lovely. She took me step by step with everything. I got the color correction and hair cut done. I would definitely recommend her to anyone. She did a wonderful job. The environment was peaceful as well and everyone was very kind. Thank you for this wonderful experience.

Lighten and Tone and haircut by Kimberly Shepherd
Rina K.

I've been going to Kim about a year now and I'm always impressed with the detailed consultation and amount of information she is able to gather and give her professional feedback on. This time when I came in I asked for the tone to be a bit more cooler than before. Kim also retouched my bleached sectioned hair and gave me a root shadow for an easier grow out - since my black hair grows very quickly the root shadow would make the blend more seamless and allow me to go longer between sessions. The studio is fairly large and has a lot of natural light which makes sitting and waiting for your color(s) to process a lot nicer. They also have a coffee machine and various drinks in the lobby area as well. Highly recommend Kim !

Blonde cut and color

Michael is the best!! I absolutely love my cut and color and the customer service is always spot on. Would highly recommend!!

Estephany O.

You worked your magic again -Thank you Nicole for the amazing cut/color! Obsessed with my new hair :)

Jill B.

Noel is the absolute best! I come out of the salon feeling like a rockstar every time and always get so many compliments on my hair . She is very good with thick curly hair. She is extremely honest, and her passion for her craft comes through everytime. Everyone that works there is also very friendly. Highly recommend.

Weird uneven bangs.

Because of her skill and care, I try to get an appointment with her when I visit OC, even though I live in NorCal. So far, very worth it! I think what makes it the most worth it are the little details in her service. She taught me how to style certain parts of my hair using the blow dryer, which I asked about because I liked the way it looked on a kdrama actress, LOL. Now I do it everyday and love it! She also provides great product recommendations. Lena's salon is petite and cute, but it feels spacious enough since she usually has one customer at a time. Lena has a gentle and sweet approach to hair, making recommendations without feeling like they're being forced on you. I really appreciate that. She has done a great job dying my mom's hair, which seems to be her speciality, but I've also really loved having my hair cut by her. The products she uses smell very good. I believe she is able to speak in Korean, Spanish, and English. Highly recommend her services!

She took me last minute without hesitation and truly made me feel like a priority. She listened to exactly what I wanted, paid attention to every detail, and completely delivered.

PERM DID NOT TAKE -- MANAGEMENT BALMED MY "HAIR CANVAS" INSTEAD OF SERVICE!!…read more I'm severely disappointed with my experience at Salon Technique in Fullerton. I went in for a spiral perm with clear reference photos and left with a result that did not match what was discussed and was assured was possible. Within weeks, the curl continued to fall out, and at this point there is very little curl remaining--even with styling products; what a loss of $460! After multiple attempts to follow up with Pamela Coryell the owner and Piage their "perm specialists", I did not receive any timely responses from either. When Pamela did finally reply, my concerns were dismissed and the outcome was blamed on my "hair canvas", including claims that my ends were lightened and too porous. This is simply not accurate--my hair is NOT colored, and I have had previous spiral perms which held well 8+ months and have matched the spiral perm look requested. To be certain I was not off my rocker, I had another salon in evaluate my hair that very same week I got the perm, and they confirmed the perm did not properly take, did not reflect what was asked for and they said I should be refunded. What's most disappointing is the lack of accountability from Salon Technique. Instead of acknowledging that the service fell short, the responsibility was redirected onto me the client! I requested multiples times for a refund and was denied and the only offer sent back was that I could return and re-perm little ares here and there with no promise that they would take! UNBELIEVABLE - I'm sharing this so others can make an informed decision. My experience says beware and do not go here. I expected professionalism and accountability, and unfortunately this salon does not hold to this level of professionalism. UPDATE 4/25/2026 JUST RECEIVED A SPIRAL PERM FROM Avy The Curly Girly at a different salon in Fullerton and I got EXACTLY what I asked for (see photo) and to boot... for way less! Dear Salon Owner Pamela and Paige it is NOT my "canvas" that's the issue!

Recently, I wanted to get my hair cut by her again but she gets booked so if you want your hair cut by her, book a good amount in advance!! Instead, I booked with Alice. Her english seems to be a little limited but I didn't mind at all, she was very kind and I just played her a video showing the haircut I wanted.

Here is why that will never change…read more She has been doing my hair for 4 years and was the first person to touch my virgin hair since my teenage years. Incredibly patient, always wonderful, never needed more than a description to know exactly what I wanted. One thing to know going in is that Ashley keeps it real with you. Once you understand that, you realize it is actually one of her best qualities because it means she is completely focused on your hair. I moved and tried to save the drive. My hair paid for that. I rolled the dice on a local salon and asked for a soft natural look on my dark hair. They bleached 80% of my head. Went back to fix it. Came out looking like a tiger. Orange, blonde, dark brown, black, all at once. Went back a third time. Left fully orange. My hair was nearly beyond repair. I reached out to Ashley. She had me come in for a consultation on a Wednesday, saw the damage in person, saw my inspiration picture, and was shocked. We booked that same Friday. She blow dried between every round to check the tone. Never rushed once. Fed me her favorite Korean snacks and got me completely hooked. By the end of that night she nailed it. The color, the softness, the health Not many stylists can lift naturally dark hair, correct that level of bleach damage, and preserve the hair all at once. That is a rare skill. Ashley has it and she makes it look easy. Five hour round trip. Twelve hours in the chair. Worth every minute. Love Ashley
