    Yoo is brilliant. By far the most talented hair artist and stylist... one of the rare few in this world I trust completely with my hair. Yoo is very kind, friendly, professional, and prompt. She truly cares about her clients and asks me what I want and envision for my hair and respects this. When I ask for guidance and recommendations, she happily shares. Her pixie cuts of my hair are the absolute best. Many many thanks to Yoo for always taking good care of me and my many friends who trust and adore you. Well wishes!

    What she was working with.

    Yesterday was my 2nd time seeing Yoo. I came in with extremely long hair and left with hair above my chest. The stylist Yoo even stated to me over a phone call that I was being a baby and hair grows back. Now only does she lack professionalism but she as well does not value or respect her clients wishes. Look what she did to me. I am disgusted and gutted from the inside. My favorite thing about myself has always been my hair and she took that away from me. Do not come here unless you wanna pay 95 to get your hair ripped away from you because it's her PROFESSIONAL JUDGEMENT meaning she does what she wants and not WHAT YOU WANT. DO NOT BOOK. My hair was my confidence booster and always made me feel beautiful. I'm left with low self esteem with short hair, because it's not my style and doesn't suit me. It's not my chapter in life yet to go short and she took that decision for me. Look somewhere else. // Update: Upload or send me the camera footage. I pointed at Mickey's shoe on the sweater I wore that day. You can't deny that. I agreed to that. You left it way above that. Take responsibility and stop with the excuses. This is not for debate. Even your text admits you did what you "needed" not what I wanted or considered my wants. I wish I recorded our phone call and you laughing saying I'm being dramatic and hair grows back. Upload the camera footage if it's such a solid case for you. I will not be gaslighted.// The footage she shared with me has been added as well.

    I loved my hair cut! My head feels lighter and I think my hair is awesome My mom likes it too

    Thank you from San Diego! TL;DR: Yoo truly cares about her work & her craft. I loved that she wanted what was best for me, my face shape & hair texture. She's very knowledgeable! Having lived in the IE for a few years pre-COVID, I was super sad to leave all the friends I met when I moved back down. I also had the hardest time trying to find someone that cuts my hair well! I'm usually very picky with who cuts my hair because some hairdressers just don't know how to take your face shape or hair texture into consideration. About two weeks prior, I was finally frustrated with my hair and how damaged it was, so I caved in and started the search for a salon. I had been trying my best to look in Yelp and Instagram for salons, but they were all either not up to my standards, unavailable for weeks, or just plain unresponsive. Luckily for me, one of my friends from Riverside recommended Yoo! The photos on Yelp looked promising + she responded to my text very quickly and was incredibly responsive! I was sold. She was able to fit me in for a haircut during my Spring Break! I was able to drive up and spend the day with my friends then get my haircut from Yoo! I think any experience with a new hairdresser is fairly awkward, but Yoo was very welcoming. We talked about what I wanted for my hair, I asked her opinion, and her honesty was refreshing to hear! Trusting her with my hair was the best decision. Yoo has great techniques. She's amazingly knowledgeable. And she actually cares about the work she puts out. She wants you to look good and be happy with the service you receive. There's a reason I'll be coming back for the next time I need a hair appointment --even if it's far from home.

    Yoo saved my hair! I actually went to a different salon a month before but didn't realize how un-blended my layers were and my highlights were so yellow and uneven. I found Yoo Salon and the owner was so nice and did everything in her expertise to fix my hair. She fixed my hush cut, blended my layers, and also recommended a different toner color to remove the yellow. I would say the cost was pretty affordable/standard and not too overpriced. I got so many compliments the next day at an event. I highly recommend!

    Yoo did a great job with my hair!

    Yoo revived my hair! It used to be dry and damaged. Now it's healthy and vibrant. Yoo is a talented stylist and a true professional. I know I can trust Yoo with my hair. She is the best! Tip: If you want to make an appointment with her, make sure you call her weeks in advance. You might get lucky with a last-minute spot, but she is otherwise pretty busy.

    First time visiting Yoo Salon. Privilege to have owner Yoo to do my hair. I asked for long bangs and an all over cut. She cuts hair so skillfully! Yoo listened to my needs and then also contributed her expertise on hairstyling for my face and then delivered. She is easy going and good humoured and will spend time on perfecting your look. I'm almost sad I didn't take a better picture but she did such a great job chopping and styling my hair. I found my go to hairdresser for cuts. She only performs single hair color processes so it's still a lookout for a hair artist who likes to color hair! All in all I highly recommend her for healthy hair that suits your taste and look.

I'll admit, I was pretty nervous going in since I hadn't had a haircut in years. My hair is straight, flat, and typically hard to style, and I was hoping to add some volume and soft curls but wasn't sure what would actually work. Hanh immediately put me at ease with her warm, funny, and welcoming personality. She's genuinely so kind. During the consultation, she really took the time to understand what I wanted and helped refine my ideas into something even better. I walked away feeling confident and excited instead of anxious. I showed her a few inspiration photos, and she didn't just match them--she completely exceeded them. She absolutely nailed the look, even better than I imagined. I rarely write reviews, but this experience truly deserved one. I'll definitely be coming back to her again!

After looking over her work, I liked Savannah and booked a balayage appointment through their online system. This entailed a $75 deposit. The salons system sends a couple of email/text reminders before your date. I was a bit nervous since, in the past, i usually get a message from the stylist asking what Im looking for and wanting a current photo of my hair. I arrived to my appt 15 minutes early. There is plenty of parking in the lot, even with the other store fronts. The roundabout makes it a bit of a pain to get in. When entering, I wasnt greeted by the secretary at the desk. Kind of just stood their awkwardly for a minute before figuring out that there's an ipad to check in with. But if I had been a walk-in, which they accept, it doesnt give that welcoming impression. Savannah greeted me shortly after checking in and she was attentive as I answered her questions on what I wanted. Felt truly heard. Ive been on the search for someone to dye my hair and my past experiences haven't been ideal, color fades even when using the recommended shampoo treatments. Im writing this 2 months later and my hair color is still vibrant. Loved my cut, and the style I was envisioning came to fruition with Savannah's hands. I would say the washing process itself was a bit painful. Gloves felt like they were pulling a lot but I understand theyre needed to protect from the chemicals used. Music is being played while in the salon but I think a TV would be helpful, especially for those appt's that run longer. Overall, it was a positive experience and I'd recommend others pay a visit with the talented Savannah.
