    the 'do
    Susy C.

    So.. 5 years ago I got the worst haircut of my life and the tears would not stop streaming. After that traumatic incident, I vowed that I would never cut my hair more than half an inch or an inch at a time. Fast forward to now and as my hair grew past my boobies, my neck couldn't take it anymore. I have A LOT of hair, i'm talkin like.. I can't put my hair up in a ponytail unless i use 2 hair ties and even then it becomes loose. I know some of you ladies feel my pain... It would take me nearly an hour to blowdry all my hair, and it never curled. SO ANYWAY. I did my Yelp research and wanted to go somewhere that WAS NOT a $12 HK "salon" , yet I needed a place that would be able to handle my ultra straight Asian hair and the fact that I had a TON of it. Vicky Shen, owner and senior stylist of Wicked Salon, thank you for my new do. It has changed my life. I take shorter showers because I don't need as much time to shampoo and condition, blowdrying my hair is done within 5-10 minutes and my neck is SO MUCH LIGHTER. Vicky took a look at what I wanted, considered my face, my amount of hair, and let me know what would work and how she would have to do it. She WAS NOT pushy at all... And for the record: I have never been one of those ladies who are able to yack away to their hair dressers and make small talk, i'm terrible at it. I usually sit there in stone cold silence. I felt at ease with Vicky and although I was not as talkative as the other clients, I still managed to muster up a decent conversation. disclaimer: my appointment was at 10am and I had gotten home at 3:30am. Hahahaha Thank you Vicky, i'll definitely be back.

    Vicky did a phenomenal job with my hair. I previously made the mistake of going to a salon where the stylist didn't know how to color Asian hair but that's not the case here. I spent 4 hours in the chair and she made sure she wasn't rushing and spent time after the salon closed to make sure my hair was the right color (ashy blonde) balayage before leaving. Beyond happy! Thank you Vicky and Sue!

    My stylist Brandi was able to fit me in super last minute as a hair model for a super chic bob yesterday and I love the way it looks. She's about done with training at Wicked and really knows what she's doing (take a look at picture #20!). Even though I was a hair model, Brandi was really conscientious, listened to my ideas and made sure I was ok with the length and style. The owner, Vicky, was really nice and didn't hover over Brandi the entire time so it made for a really relaxed experience. Thanks to Brandi for making my hair look awesome and I'll definitely be back!

    In love w the color

I was asked to send photos of my hair and then told that Hector is booked out for months. It would have been better to be upfront about that from the start instead of feeling like I was being screened as a new client. A friend of mine has seen Hector for years and recommended him, which is why I wanted to try. I initially hoped to see another stylist at the salon, but soon learned that that team member is no longer there. If the salon updates its information and availability, it would help set expectations for future clients.

Compared to the other studios I've been to, they are the most consistent, honest, and detailed. I have never walked out of this studio unhappy with how my hair looked, even if it deviated a bit from what I originally wanted. In the most recent time I went, I was absolutely blown away with how my hair turned out! So much that I think I will continue asking for this color for years to come, maybe until my hair can't handle it anymore lol I've been going to Romi for a few years for color and haircuts and I deeply appreciate how much attention to detail she has. In my case, she had noted down the colors that I've had before and uses that as a point of reference for my session. This is so helpful, especially since I don't remember what I asked for months prior. Since I liked my most recent color so much, I can walk into the studio with full confidence that I can ask for the exact same thing again because she has it noted down somewhere. Thank you Romi!!

From there, we did an 10 hour transformation going blonde and honestly, that appointment bonded us for life. I've never trusted anyone else since, she's basically my hairstylist and therapist hehe Her balayage is SOOOOO good. It always looks natural, grows out beautifully, and lasts forever without getting brassy. I'm pretty low-maintenance, and somehow my hair still looks put together months later because of her work. Her haircuts are also super clean, and she's actually the one who got me into curtain byayangs and I've stuck with them ever since. What I appreciate most is how much she cares about doing things the right way. When I decided to go back to my natural color, she didn't rush it or take shortcuts. She slowly transitioned me over time and kept my hair healthy through every stage. I live in Los Angeles now and will literally fly home just to see her, that's how good she is! After 11 years, she's more than just my hairstylist, she's someone I trust completely. Highly recommend!
