The service at this place is top-notch. I walked in and the first thing I'm offered to something cool to drink. My appointment was for 6:30 PM and it got me in the chair right at 6:30 PM Jason and his assistant was absolutely awesome, my hair was washed dried cleaned up and trimmed up. The price was good the service was great I will be back in 30 days. There are a lot of places in the Newport Mesa area that will cut your hair, there's not very many good places that will treat you right they make you feel good. First thing my wife said as I walked in the door is how great my hair looked. Thank you Jason and your crew for an awesome experience! read more

Such amazing service!! Huge shoutout to Katie for making me feel younger and more confident with my hair This was honestly my first time ever doing anything to my hair--let alone cutting it--and I'm OBSESSED. I love my new look and how full and healthy my hair feels now. If you're looking for a place to get your hair done, this is it. They truly have stylists for everything, and if you need a curly cut, Katie is your girl. She's so fun to talk to, super knowledgeable, and explained everything--from shaping to styling--so clearly. She also gave me great advice on how to care for my hair and which products to use to keep it feeling fresh and healthy. I also love the vibe here--clean, welcoming, and everyone is so nice. You'll definitely be seeing a lot more of me here! Thank you Tomahawk and thank you Katie for such an amazing experience read more

Katie has been cutting and styling my hair in Costa Mesa for the past year now and this past March I had the pleasure of having her style my hair for my wedding. I knew I had wanted to rock my natural curls and she absolutely killed it. Not only did she travel from Orange County to San Marcos for the wedding, but she also stuck around to make sure my hair looked great for our pre ceremony photos. I cannot thank her enough for making me feel the most beautiful I have ever felt! read more

Katie hit the "new life" button on my hair. I hadn't colored it in nearly a decade and she used balayage to add light while leaving my brunette roots. I love it - sunkissed and refreshed. For the cut, I asked her to reshape while preserving the length and she did it. I love the curls around my face and she shared some great new styling techniques. THANK YOU KATIE! Great salon, nice attention to detail. Not a bad place to spend 3-4 hours :). read more

I had a curly cut by Katie and she DELIVEREDT. I am obsessed with the shape that this cut gives my hair and the bangs are exactly what I wanted. I've had curly bangs before and I was scared to get them again, but I just love the way she did them so much that I see myself continuing to get my bangs trimmed to keep them :) She taught me how to style my hair like this myself at home as well, showing me the products she used, how much of each product, and how to apply them. She also had the products available to purchase. The salon itself is very cute and inviting. On top of all of this I really enjoyed sitting in her chair and chit chatting! She is so sweet and also has amazing curls herself. Highly recommend read more

I had the WORST curly cut with Katie. I specifically said I wanted to conserve as much length as possible. I was fine with layers to add volume, but the way she CHOPPED the first layer was awful. It was originally right below my chest, and now it's up to my chin. Also, the first layer is significantly shorter than my face-framing pieces--she didn't even touch those! The result is a very choppy, unblended look. It literally looks like an A-line cut at the top. To make matters worse, she didn't blend the last layer, which is at my lower back-- making my hair look like a jellyfish, which is exactly what I told her I didn't want. The second layer is almost non-existent... I paid so much money for this cut, and I'm incredibly disappointed with the outcome. We discussed it, and she apologized, which I truly appreciated, but I would have expected her to offer a fix or at least a partial refund. read more

Best haircut I have had in 47 years!!!! I'm obsessed with my curls. Those with curly hair know how difficult it is to find someone who can cut our hair. Katie is amazing!!!! I have received SO many compliments. They're also commenting on the color and the shine. I have struggled all my life with my hair and for the first time, I am able to embrace my curls and feel good. She also took the time to teach me how to diffuse it and apply products at home. Thank you Katie! read more

So when it comes to hair I am the pickiest, most paranoid person in the world with getting any kind of change to it or trusting someone enough to come near it lol. I hadn't gotten my hair cut in about 7 years because my first experience was tragic so I never trusted hair salons after that as most of us girls could probably relate. With that being said, I am so so happy I came across this salon - specifically DUVAL (I found him on Instagram). I stocked his page and really liked the versatility and the different showcase of talents; He showed that he was good with all kinds of styles, cuts, and coloring so that was enough to make me feel comfortable in knowing that he knew what he was doing before I went in. I arrived and was greeted by his super sweet assistant, she offered me water and got me all set for Duval before he came out - He was super friendly and had a very calm aura about him which I definitely needed considering I was more nervous then ever!! I explained to him my trauma with my hair and told him I didn't exactly know what I wanted highlight wise but I knew I wanted layers and some long face frame bangs that would look good in a middle part AND also if I pulled all to one side. I told him i was nervous about getting highlights because I didn't want to look washed out because of my fair skin && he was very confident & excited with his response and told me he knew exactly what to do with my hair which made me more excited than nervous, so I appreciated it for sure. The pictures show the beautiful and amazing work he did on my hair, I've literally never felt more confident in my appearance!! I wanted a change so bad but was seriously terrified of getting in any chair and trusting someone else with it but I'm so glad I did. I wanted someone who would tell me what I wanted since I didn't really know what I wanted and for someone to make me feel excited about it happening and that's exactly what Duval did! His peers are so friendly and casual as well and it really is just such a good vibe all around. You really feel like you're in good hands & surrounded with professionals. Side note: He also gave me a discount cause he ended up doing a full set of highlights instead of a partial which is what I originally booked, so I thought that it was really nice he didn't try to up-charge me (: All in all if I could give this salon more stars I would, it really was the perfect experience with the most perfect outcome. Duval's Instagram is duval_hair if you wanna check him out! read more

Duval is incredible !!! I have been going to Duval for 5 years, and I am always in love walking out of the salon. He is genuine, educated, fashionable and classic. He understands trends and knows how to apply them to your face and hair type. I live in NYC and I travel all the way home to CA, because I love, but most importantly trust his work. He always makes sure to put the health of my hair first, even though I ask for a lot! It's always a fun day, laughing in his chair and seeing his passion come alive! read more

Tomahawk - Chunky beautiful highlights - Hair Salons Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

Sad to say, but the person I went to for 6 years was just not cutting my hair as good anymore. It has been uneven the last couple visits. So luckily, I was referred to Duval by a neighbor. I have super long hair, and want a very deep V cut. I like the length, but need to get some weight off. When my pony tail hurts, that's when I know it's time to go in. This place was hard to find, no street signs, but I found it. I've never been to a stylist who has an assistant! I had two people blow drying my hair, which cut the time in half. I was impressed at how precise he was and I felt like I was in good hands. He didn't make me stand up while cutting my hair, like most people do. I don't know if stylists know how scared we are when we come in for the first time; you can literally ruin a person's life if you screw up their hair! I remember a long time ago someone commented I looked extremely nervous... yes oh yes I am! The cut came out beautifully and I cannot express my gratitude! I have the most beautiful hair and it's frustrating when I can't get it cut right. There are many reasons to love this place. Hoping to post a pic soon... read more

After days of yelping hair artists, I finally came across Tomahawk salon and the man behind the chair, DUVAL. His personality is as interesting and intriguing as his name. And no, it's not a stage name. His magical yet real wholesomeness immensely exaggerated itself in his work. I came in with hair that should only be seen in extreme dark lighting. A color correction to be exact. As my hair has been through many abusive past relationships. His assistant, Lea who is a total gem, were both an amazing team and played the field like MVP's. I felt like a thrashed canvas, and with his vision, an awaited masterpiece. He took his attentive time with me and did not rush my hair or take short cuts like my past hairlationships. Through and through I was taken care of. I've never felt more like a pretty and classy goddess of a woman in my life. What a talent this man is! This will be a long hairlationship for eternity, my hair belongs to him! read more

You know it might be harder to find a good stylist and color expert than it is to find a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow. I've been lucky enough to have Jason use his magic to keep my blonde perfect for almost a decade now. Having followed him from his last salon - and now while he is the proud owner of his amazing salon called Tomahawk, I wouldn't trade him for the world. It's always hard to want to refer people to this salon though because he's booked solid. "Gotta book out" he always says, and if you are lucky enough to get in with him, tell him I sent you! Thanks Jason for always keeping me to my natural blonde color ;-p read more

David File is a wonderful hairstylist with an amazing eye and understanding of what works for your hair and face.

He never rushes anything and he takes his time to ensure that the cut is perfectly executed and it shows! He is so talented and yet so casual and so nice!

AMAZING experience with Jason and his awesome Tomahawk salon! During Covid I let my hair just grow...it felt out of style and so out of shape.

If you are looking for a great stylist that knows what he is doing go to Jason. He has the magic hands for color.

I was introduced to Jason in 2014 and as a natural blonde he has always taken the best care of my hair. He has amazing knowledge and techniques for not only color but will also give you the best haircut of your life. You will not find a better hair stylist. Beware of his skills and get ready to follow him wherever he goes. The new salon is super friendly, beautiful decor and yet very relaxing, I would recommend it to anyone that wants to leave getting compliments for weeks after walking out!! read more

I'm a guy and I've been going to duval for around 2 years. The problem I've had with previous barbers is that they will cut your hair differently every time, and also I had a hard time finding someone that wouldn't cut my hair so it looks like I'm in the marines. After Duval cut my hair the first time I never went to anyone else. He cuts my hair very professionally and takes his time to texture and get proportions right with my head shape so you get a very elegant and proper look. I get compliments all the time and couldn't be happier. Highly recommend if you're a guy and you need your hair to look amazing. I've attached a photo as well. read more
