My wife found this place and did not disappoint me. Alisha is great, great conversation and really attentive to one's needs. I told her exactly how I wanted my hairstyle and she got down and did not stop until she felt it was right. I'm a lifer now, and will continue to book all my haircuts at The Man Cave. Thank you Alisha! read more

Alicia is a very talented hair stylist and works great with curly hair. She is passionate about her work and wants to make sure you leave looking great. read more

I cannot say enough great things about Alisha. Before she picks up her styling tools she spends time upfront asking how you want your hair styled. Once everyone is on the same page she gets to work and work she does. To say she is a perfectionist is an understatement. She won't let you leave until everyone is satisfied with the results. I'm a new client of hers and will be coming back for as long as I have hair on my head. Try her out and you'll feel the same way. read more

I came here after having my barber for about 15 years. I needed a different type of cut and even though he is a top of the line barber he just couldn't nail the style. I was very skeptical about this place but oh my god! The results were everything I asked for and more. read more

Best haircut I've had in years. . Alisha is very skilled and detail oriented. I have curly grey hair and she nailed it.

Alicia is a bit of a hippie with amazing skills and a terrific manner to boot. You should absolutely check her out.

If you are looking for a stylist who will listen to how you want your hair styled and then take their time styling it as you described, then Alisha is your stylist. She is creative in providing the style that you want. She takes her time paying attention to the details of hair growth and artistically shapes your cut to make you look your best. Her salon is well kept, and she is the only stylist who works in her space, so you do not have to be distracted by others. Her niche is men's hair cuts, so her salon is set up to make men feel comfortable. read more

Alicia cut both of my teen boys hair- she did a great job. One had long Charlie hair and she gave it a clean/freestyle shorter cut that looked great. My older son has more straight and thick hair (asian hair) and she was able to give his hair some texture and ability to be styled so much easier (she thinned it out) his cut is the best cut he has ever had. We will definitely tell all our friends about this new found gem. read more

Been seeing Alisha for years. She is the best. My experience with her has been awesome, she knows what she's doing, she understands the science behind cutting men's hair, and is able to help guide you through any questions you have when trying to achieve the hairstyle you want. She is my go-to. read more

Alisha is beyond experienced with texturing exactly what I wanted in my style . Great communication & conversations to go along with an awesome experience. I will almost definitely have the confidence in Alisha cutting my hair giving the best style . read more

I just got the haircut of a life time. Literally! Ive constantly had issues with my hair my entire life, always want it a certain way, but never achieve anything close to it at a barber. It got to the point where id find excuses to just grow my hair instead of get it cut somewhere. Been to many barbers, experienced many disappointments. I stumbled upon The Man Cave through yelp, sent Alisha some pictures of the style i wanted and she hit it dead center! Her skill is so precise, no clippers, all done by razor in hand. She took her time but is so worth it, compared to the 15-20 min quick barber cuts. I was so impressed with how well she flowed through everything while also engaging in great conversations to make the experience relaxing. If youre a dude hesitant to leave your barber to go to a salon, trust me, this spot will not disappoint! Definitely going back for my next cut, stoked i finally found a home for my cuts. read more

Woman's hair is no problem, thin hair is no problem, and straight hair is no problem for her!!!!Alisha is such a talented hair stylist! This is my second time seeing Alisha, the first was in December, she saved me from a horrible experience, I actually walked out on haircut halfway through, ugh. I am still very glad I did! (no one needs an awful haircut and a lecture to boot) anyway, here I was with half a haircut ick! I was in a bind, Alisha to the rescue!! I not only had a positive upbeat attitude, I received the most amazing haircut!! She managed to fix problem without costing me all my length or making me look like a boy, I ended up with the best haircut I had had in quite along time!! Beyond cute, I got complemented consistently, even a few strangers, boy was I pleasantly surprised and pleased! What a cute bob, all razor cut easy for me to care for , it even looked good straight out of bed in the morning!! Today I went back for another new hairdo, what can I say I love it, Alisha listens and knows exactly what you want and how to do it! It has been long overdue since I had such an amazing, hip stylist, one that knows how to deliver new styles fitting her client perfectly! One who really cares how happy you are with your cut! Alisha was and is my my teenage grandson's stylists (they always look so hip, in, and cute) Then I find out she also does a few other people I know! Amazing that's her!! I will be back!! after finding someone to fix another's damage and not leave me looking like a mistake but making it so stylish, and then 2nd time today doing such an amazing job!! I have my girl!! My recommendation women, men or children she can do it all!! And everyone of them as different and unique as that person! That is real talent!! read more

I've been Alicia's client for a few years now. Still consistently THE BEST stylist I have had. Ever. Jeff Barr read more

Alisha knows her stuff. You know how you need to go to a hairstylist a few times before they understand how your hair works? I was browsing on Yelp for a new hairstylist and Alisha BLEW. ME. AWAY. Best first haircut ever and it looked great even while it was still damp right after a wash and shampoo after she had cut it. I told her right there and then I'd be coming back. One of the best haircuts I've gotten EVER. Professional, respectable and high recommended!! read more

My son loves this place! (He is 15) He decided to grow his hair out long so a typical barber shop wasn't cutting it anymore. Alicia listened to what kind of style he wanted and was very patient with him. The price is very affordable for the type of hair style my son likes to get. I definitely recommend The Mane Cave! read more

At this point in my life getting my haircut is an annual ritual that requires a great deal of thought, mental preparation, and hoping that my hair turns out nicer than it was before it got cut. Having long and rather curly hair that's been curbed stomped by the sun and harsh pool chemicals from my coaching gig, I'm rather peculiar about the places I get my haircut! And looking at the reviews for the Mane Cave spelled out my two upmost requirements from a hairdresser, which are being able to deal with long and somewhat unmanageable hair and is very considerate of their clients needs. I can confidently say that Alisha delivers both of those things in spades! Never have I ever had some who's cutting my hair ask so many questions about how I feel about every step of the process and Alisha did that which me feel more than reassured! Even down to asking what music I wanted to listen to (it was Thin Lizzy lol)! But all in all finding good people to cut my crazy hair is hard to find so I'll definitely be taking my business back to the Mane Cave because my hair looks great and the experience there was even better! read more

I've been coming to The Mane Cave for the last 6 years and I've never been dissatisfied with the service I receive. Alisha is the stylist I ask for each time and with good reason - she offers more than just a haircut or a beard trim. When you come to this place you pretty much get a confidence boosting style uplift. Not sure which cut you want and feeling adventurous? Don't know your face type? Curious about what look will flatter you most? Super picky about your hair and style? Anything you throw at the staff at Mane Cave they nail it. Having tried many barbers and hair stylists over the years this is the perfect fit for me. I think it will be for anyone else too, male or female. Thanks Mane Cave and especially Alisha - can't recommend you enough. read more

Alisha is an absolute hair Baller! She literally is a goddess at her craft and knows how to tame my fro, I mean Man-Mane, every visit. She has been doing my hair now for the past two years and continually makes me feel like a stud every time I leave her chair. I highly recommend giving her a shot and letting her work her mens hair mastery on your hair. As always, thanks Alisha for being the real MVP! Tim read more

I've been getting my haircut with Alisha for over a year now. Karin was jealous at first because Alisha only did men's hair due to the fact that she was working at a Men's Hair Salon. But now, Alisha owns her own salon in Brea, CA, which means that Karin and I can both get our hair done by her. Alisha never disappoints. Karin trusted Alisha's expertise by letting her do her magic on her hair. Karin loved the way her hair came out, as did I. https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=2142093476019090&id=100006553756866 read more

Alisha is great hair stylist, I have been using her services for past 4 months and she has been doing a great job. She pay attention to details and goes extra mile to take care of her clients needs. She does not push extra treatments or products to you and if you ask her opinion about anything going to look good with your hair, she will be very honest to give you the feedback. I highly recommend her for all hair needs!! read more

The best. Unrivaled perfection, outstanding beyond comparison. This only begins to describe every single one of my fantastic experiences with Alisha. You can tell almost instantly that she is really passionate about cutting hair, and will really take the time to do it right. Just tell her what style or look you are trying to achieve, and she will give you exactly what you want. A haircut even comes with a shampoo and a hot towel. The overall atmosphere is also really great, and makes this place really fun to visit. The facility is extremely clean and nice, and overall just makes you feel comfortable. Pricing is also extremely reasonable. Quite honestly, you will not be able to find a place that can even compare. read more

First time client here. Alisha never showed up to our appointment. I arrived 10 mins before the scheduled appointment time. When I entered the salon, one of the other stylists asked who I was there to see, I told them I had an appointment with Alisha, I had made the appointment through her website the previous day and had received an email notifying the appointment was confirmed. The stylist informed me that she was not there yet and offered me a seat in the waiting area, I waited over 30 minutes before I walked up to another stylist and asked if Alisha was expected to be in. She asked if I had her number and that I should reach out to her, I told her that I was not provided with a phone number as the appointment was made via her website and there was not a phone number listed. She then apologized and said she had to return to her client, not able to assist me further. When I made the appointment I provided my email and phone number, I understand that there may be emergencies in which Alisha could not have kept the appointment, however, it would have been courteous to let me know that she was not coming. Alisha could have canceled the appointment on her end to notify me that she was unavailable, she could have called the salon or me to let me know she was unavailable. It's just unprofessional to leave a customer waiting. After 40 mins I decided it was best to leave. read more

I'm glad I found Alicia, I struggle going from stylist to stylist providing instructions on just how I like my hair and Alicia was able to get it spot on and consistent. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a stylist Paolo read more

This is a long past due review for Alicia. I've been a client of Alicia's for a while now and shes honestly the best! Always have awesome conversations with her while getting my hair cut. Besides her being a awesome and fun human being her skills are great as well. She really spends time with her clients to make sure they are happy with their cut. Her pricing is excellent for the great service she provides. I definitely found my stylist for the foreseeable future. Also her set up is very welcoming from a mans point of view. If you're in the area and need a cut give The Mane Cave a shot! Alicia will hook your head up! read more

Ever since I found Alisha 3 years ago, I don't let anyone else touch my hair. Amazing, creative, professional, knowledgeable-all great words to describe, but most of all she is a perfectionist.

See all

I've been coming here since she first opened her shop and have loved the results every time. When I first came, my hair was damaged and ruined by a previous stylist who over bleached and killed my hair. Alisha helped revive it to its healthy state and I am forever grateful. She is the kindest and most caring person who truly has a passion for her work. Definitely would recommend her to anyone male or female. read more
