Got a haircut today by Ami - her instagram is @amidoeshair - she gave me face framing curtain bangs and beautiful layers. I was really specific with the cut I wanted because I don't like my hair too short and Ami really listened and delivered!! She specializes in haircuts/styles that are long lasting and look better as it grows out without needing much styling - perfect for me since I never have time to style my hair before work. Lots of free parking in the parking lot. They have gendered restrooms, couches to wait on, and Ami even offered me water, teas, and snacks during my visit. She's so sweet! The Union Salon South space is an absolute gem. It's so beautiful with lots of windows, open brick concept, and lots of wonderful stylists walking around. Highly highly recommend Ami - she really listens to what her customers want and isn't pushy with any products. read more

I had such a wonderful experience with my hairstylist KRISTIN KIM! I'm extremely satisfied and happy with how my hair (balayage) turned out. It looks beautiful!!! She was very gentle while shampooing my hair and constantly made sure I was comfortable throughout the whole process. I also appreciated the little touches, like serving me coffee, which made the experience even more relaxing and enjoyable. She was professional, caring, and attentive from start to finish. Highly recommended! read more

This is LONG overdue, but I made my first appointment with Kristin almost 2 years ago, when I decided to chop off 12+ inches of hair. She took the time to understand exactly what I wanted, made me feel super comfortable and reassured throughout the whole process, made suggestions based on my best interest long-term, and overall, exceeded my expectations. Fast forward to yesterday, I saw Kristin again to bleach and color my hair for the first time. She was thorough in explaining the process and realistic about maintenance/results, while still taking the time and putting in the effort to achieve the result I was hoping for. It turned out even better than I imagined, and my hair still feels so healthy. On top of all of this, she's been well aware that I've developed moderate to severe eczema over the past year, and ensures that my scalp health is also a high priority by checking in regularly throughout the process. TLDR: Kristin is genuinely so sweet, thoughtful, and caring, and it shows in her work. V grateful for her!! Wish I could gatekeep, but I can't keep her in the dark anymore bc she deserves all the recognition and more read more

Union Salon South is absolutely amazing! The space is beautiful--clean, spacious, and filled with top-of-the-line, up-to-date products. It's the kind of place where you instantly feel at ease. I've been going to Karissa for nearly 13 years, and I truly can't say enough about her talent and professionalism. She consistently delivers exceptional results and never disappoints. I've recommended her to all my friends--she's simply the best! No matter where life takes me, I'll always make the drive to see her. Just last night, after not having my hair done for a while (I'm a new mom expecting my second), I finally did something for myself. I got a trim and balayage highlights--and the results honestly brought tears to my eyes. Karissa has an incredible ability to bring her clients' vision to life, and she does it with care, experience, and honesty. With almost 20 years in the industry, she knows what she's doing and always offers thoughtful suggestions to ensure the final look is perfect. On top of it all, she's so sweet and considerate--always checking in, making sure I'm comfortable, and keeping me updated throughout the process. I absolutely love coming to her and can't recommend her enough! Oh--and I can rarely leave without buying some of the products. They smell amazing and work wonders for my hair from wash to style. Highly recommend! read more

Kristin is the most amazing hair stylist i've ever had. Not only did she squeeze me into her already very busy schedule, but I told her that I was nervous about my hair due to some hair loss I have been experiencing, and she took the time to be extremely gentle and delicate with my hair. and not to mention my haircut looks great! i have also had a cut by jennica and she was amazing as well. based on my experience with these two hairdressers I would imagine being seen by anyone here would equal a great haircut. read more

Took my 8 year old daughter for a haircut before school starts. We booked an appointment with Sam and she was a good pick for us. She made my daughters experience 1 of a kind.

Overall Sam gave my daughter an amazing haircut and took care of all the nervousness. read more

Kana at Union Salon in South Pasadena is absolutely amazing. From the moment you sit in her chair, you can tell she genuinely cares about getting it right--not just rushing you in and out. She took the time to really listen to what I wanted, asked thoughtful questions, and offered suggestions that actually made sense for my hair type and lifestyle. The cut and color turned out even better than I imagined. My hair looks healthy, effortless, and grows out beautifully (which is rare!). Kana has that perfect balance of technical skill and artistic eye--you feel like you're in very capable hands the entire time. The salon itself is warm, stylish, and relaxed, and Kana's calm, friendly energy makes the whole experience feel like a treat rather than an appointment. I've already gotten so many compliments, and I won't be going to anyone else. If you're on the fence, book with Kana. You'll thank yourself later. ‍ read more

She was so wonderful and did such a great job with a layered cut with bags, fixed my color from being uneven warm brown with brassy highlights to a rich dark brown that helps my hair look healthy and back to before! Vibes were amazing, got a great head massage, and great conversation. 10/10 would recommend! read more

I've never dyed my hair but I wanted something new so I came in for a balayage with Kristin! Kristin was so sweet and thorough from the consultation all the way to checkout. It was my first time going to a salon for anything other than a cut, so I was nervous and had a couple questions. She told me what each step was for, gave recommendations according to my history/style, and even touched up my botched bangs for me. Kristin is so talented and caring--would 100% recommend to anyone! read more

I impulsively decided to color my hair red at another salon and quickly regretted it as the color just didn't fit my personality. I got a color correction done by Kristin and am sooo so happy with the results. I couldn't believe the transformation, it was well worth the wait for my appt with her. Right from the consultation, Kristin was so helpful - I sent her my short term and long term hair goals and she was able to get me to my long term goal color in one sitting without any damage I'm so excited to go back out into the world with my new hair without hiding behind a hat and bun. Kristin is amazing!! She worked magic on this hair, was super sweet and gave me a helpful list of hair products and tips for everyday styling read more

Five stars for sure for Shannen because she's the best stylist ever and has such an even temperament. She does excellent work and puts you in a real 'spa mood'. The salon, too, is lovely, and the staff seem very nice and were super-helpful. But if you scrimp and save and come in here just once in a while, know that the suggested tips are CRAZY high! CRAZY HIGH, ya'll! (Sigh) Our Subway (sandwiches) is now a pilates studio. Rest in peace, 99 cents stores. There is no corner of Pasa left for the Average Jo. read more

Overall very sad and disappointed I spent $780 on a coloring job that didn't look like my inspiration picture I showed the stylist. My recommendation is to look at the IG pages of the stylist and go with someone who has done work similar to what you have in mind. I worked with Shanan who was very kind and friendly but I don't think the execution came out well as there were so many differences from my inspiration picture (see screenshot). I went in the first time on June 7 and paid $420 ($350 + $70 tip) only to lighten my hair as she said we should do it in steps to keep the integrity of my hair (last picture). She scheduled me to come back June 14 to complete the look and she put highlights in my hair and toned it for another $360 ($300 + $60 tip) I had mentioned many times I wanted the caramel/warm golden tones in the inspiration picture and that I didn't want any highlights at the top of my head to look "too distinct" but more natural/grown in (maybe this would've been a balayage? Not sure) and she even said she'd do thinner highlights there to make it not as heavy. I don't think this is what came out because the highlights still looked a little dense at the top of my head to me. When we finished I was trying to be open minded but I could tell the tone overall was much cooler than the inspiration and the top of my head was a cool tone but the under half of my head was warm. I didn't think this was right but when I raised the concerns she said she used cooler tones to combat how much warmth I had in my hair and that I still have a lot of warmth in it. She did offer to retone it for me if I didn't like it that much, but I had been there for 5 hours already and had to go. I felt unheard and would've liked the warmth and subtler root area highlights to begin with. Again, really kind, but sad to have paid so much money and not get what I asked for. I also got my hair cut the first time with Jeanica and she was also very kind and did a good job. Update: I asked for and received a refund for the highlighting service ($300). She was very understanding about the situation and quick to resolve. read more
