Hair Day Beauty Salon

Jan 05, 2025

I never write reviews, but this place was so frustrating I felt the need to warn others. While they do give good haircuts—which is why I gave them the benefit of the doubt multiple times—they do not have the attention to detail or patience for good hair color. I usually trust that the hair stylists know what they’re doing, but here you have to be vigilant or they will mess you up. I have a split-dye hairstyle with 2 pieces of blonde, and the rest of my hair is my dark virgin hair. I first got it done in Japan and loved it, so I wanted to maintain it with root touch ups here in the states. However, this proved way too difficult for Hair Day. They poorly parted my hair, bleached parts they shouldn't have, and constantly wiped mistakes off my hair with a rag instead of taking their time. Despite this, I kept trusting the process because I still assumed professionals would know what they were doing. I was wrong. The first visit left my roots yellow after bleaching. I pointed this out, and the stylist asked if I wanted toner—as if leaving my roots yellow was what I wanted. I know nothing about hair, so I assumed the toner would fix the yellow. After the toner, my roots turned gray and eventually faded back to yellow. The second visit was to fix this, but the boss was accusatory, implying the issue was my fault. She tried to blame all of the pieces her employee covered with black hair dye on me. When I explained, she then got mad and said my hair needed double bleaching to not be yellow, which I wasn’t informed of the first time. I would have happily paid more and stayed longer had I been informed, which would have saved me the second visit. They re-bleached and toned my hair, sort of fixing it, but the entire experience was stressful. Still, I bought a hair product despite their mistakes because I felt bad for taking their time. Going the third time was my mistake as I should have learned my lesson. However, I genuinely assumed that booking with the boss would mean there would be no mistakes and it would be fine. She was worse than her employee. She barely listened as I explained my style, skipped proper parting, and over-bleached my hair. At least, in the first visit, the mistakes were accidents, but the boss bleached lots of black on purpose so she wouldn’t have to part my hair. She also kept handing the job off to an assistant who she had to teach. Both of them used rags to wipe bleach off parts of my hair like I was a table. They bleached so many roots on natural pieces of hair that I could no longer trust the process and I pointed it out. She tried to act like she wasn’t doing anything wrong and told me she was going to color those pieces black. I never asked for that, I just wanted a root touch up on the only two blonde pieces of hair on my natural hair. My hair will undoubtedly fade into a tricolored mess. Despite spending six hours in the chair for a simple touch-up of two small pieces of hair the boss refused to acknowledge her mistakes, blamed them on her employees, and rushed through everything. Even as they were blow drying my hair, she tried to cover up more left over mistakes with dye, but I refused saying I just wanted to go. She insisted, so I let her, but I ended up having to hover over the sink so she could wash that piece. This is an experience I would expect from an at home dye job by novices, not professionals. Additionally, I noticed they’re more attentive and welcoming to Korean-speaking customers. They book multiple clients at once, which means you’re left unacknowledged for long periods and they rush. If you’re looking for a cheap hair job, this is the place, but it will reflect in the quality. I wouldn’t recommend this salon, especially for intricate dye jobs or alternative hairstyles. The lack of care and professionalism left my hair damaged and far from what I wanted. Most frustratingly, the boss never acknowledged her mistakes. I shouldn’t have even paid her for the damage she did to my hair, but I wanted to leave so bad. Very disappointing experience.

Awesome spot they are knowledgeable of hair styles and hair tips. I came in to get a hair cut and showed them a pic of the type of haircut I wanted with longer layers to make my hair look like volume. They cut my hair exactly how I wanted it and gave me tips how to keep it healthy. Jenny is awesome 👏 will come back again.

원장님과 직원분들 모두 친절하세요. 무엇보다 중요한건 딱 요구사항 들어보시고, 제가 원하는 스타일로 펌과 커트를 해주셨어요. 가격도 한국과 크게 다르지 않은것 같아요. 한국에서 오셔서 미용실 어디 가실지 고민하시는 분들을 위해 추천합니다.

Nice and clean. Walk-ins friendly. Saved my bangs☺️ Haircut is 60 for mid-long hair; it includes washing and blow-dry.

I highly recommend this salon. I've tried so many stylists but Jenny really does have a natural gift for color, cut and style. My hair has never looked better!

I had been planning to donate my hair after two years of growing it out and wanted to get a special haircut. Overall, the experience was great. Justin was kind and thoughtful and understood the importance of my hair donation. The haircut, on the other hand, is awful. I usually look at the cut the day after without product and it was nothing like what I asked for. It is now choppy and way shorter than I expected. My hair will grow out but I’m disappointed at the styling because I even showed my reference photos several times. I’m very unhappy with my haircut but I do think Justin is good at cutting men’s hair if they want it on the shorter side.

Love getting my hair done here, I can always count on them to fix my damaged hair. Great service and cool salon as well. Fair prices. I come here all the way from Colorado

Never again. Came here for a cut, wanting to maintain the length with layers + curtain bang trim. I originally called for an appointment with Jenny, the owner, but as soon as I walked in the guy that had booked the appointment for me asked me what I wanted to do. Thinking he was just going to shampoo, I told him what I wanted. But afterward, it was too late and he started cutting my hair. I have never been in so much pain during a haircut. He was tugging and pulling my hair, telling me that “tension” was needed for a pretty result. While he was making my hair thinner, it literally felt like he was plucking each individual strand out of my scalp. My hair now looks terrible. The layers are a mess, the length is too short, and the curtain bangs look the same as they were when I entered the salon. The curls he put in uncurled in approximately two hours. I have never had a bad experience with Jenny. But Justin, although he was a nice person, is most definitely not qualified to cut women’s hair.

This has been my go-to place since I moved to LA in 2020. The auntie who’s almost always there (assuming she’s the owner?) took absolutely great care of my hair. But it’s NOT the case today because the new lady wearing round glasses is a completely different story: She seems always to be in a rush and the way she handles everything is always rough that even hurt me a couple times with the clipper. She also can’t seem to get the wire straight for the clipper - can’t you take a break and calm down before you do anything?? Worst part is that she doesn’t realize she’s making me uncomfortable it until I really reacts…she would then apologizes but proceed with the same mishandling again. Even when it comes to washing my hair - she would start before I even get ready. The water is almost always ICE COLD for the first half. And she doesn’t know how to properly dry my hair with towels - aren’t you supposed to at least wait until the water stops dripping to stop??? Simply rubbing a couple times and leave me there with face covered in water drops is NOT the way to go. Just overall a horrible experience. I hope the auntie that was previously there comes back…otherwise I would NOT recommend going to hair day anymore.

Favorite hair salon ever as always. Jenny knows exactly how to do trendy Korean and Kpop hairstyles. Just show her a photo of any Kpop hairstyle, and she can do it. Her salon is always super clean and her assistants are friendly and so good work. I appreciate and respect how Jenny always does the hair cutting part herself. Anyone can wash, dry, or blowdry hair, but it is the cut that truly matters. Her prices are extremely affordable, and I will always be back!!

I made an appointment for 3 pm, ended up coming a bit early but they still fit me in, and I had a great experience! I didn't get the name of the stylist, but this was the most pleasant haircut experience I got. This is a bit hard to explain. I've been to a few places where while they do a good job, they can be rough at times and seem to rush. My stylist did a great job and I didn't feel any pulling, or nicks! This was by far the most gentle, yet amazing haircut I've received! After the cut, the hairstylist managed to make me look amazing with just a brush and hairdryer. She's clearly very talented and knows what she's doing. Although I doubt I could style my hair the same way at home because I suck at styling my hair, knowing that it's possible makes me want to learn how to! I'll definitely be coming back here next time I cut my hair and probably ask for styling tips as well!

The best!

The hairdressers didn’t listen to what my friend said and overlooked the picture we showed her too. The attitude wasn’t pleasant. Wouldn’t recommend you going if you don’t speak Korean.

Amazing

The first time I came here, I brought a reference picture and wasn't sure how I wanted, but I let expert stylist Jenny handle it and it came out amazing! Since then, I've gotten lots of compliments everytime I go get it cut. Very professional and wonderful people.

I don’t like here

I’ve been going to their stylist Chloe for 2 years now, and she always does an amazing job with my hair. I’ve done pink, purple, blue, blonde, black - every color you can name and she’s always killed it. Recently went in for a balayage and extension job and she did beyond what I was even expecting!! My hair is now hair goals. Thank you chloe!

Cheap and fair price. Good service from hairstylist and staff!
