Best Hair Salons In Pasadena

“Came from NC to visit my son and was in need of a haircut. After checking reviews of salons in the area, I chose Upstairs Hair Salon. 1- Reviews were great 2- Price was doable for me. So thank you to all who wrote their experiences because I too was very happy with Marina! She COMPLETELY understood what type of haircut I wanted, and delivered!! I’m pretty picky with how my hair is blown out and for the first time in years, I didn’t have to go home and redo my hair!! She also gave me excellent advice on hair products without trying to sell me anything! I WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK when I come out here to visit!“

“The friendliest, kindest humans work here!! An exceptional haircut and all around service - can’t believe how lucky we are to have this place right here in Palms!“

“I just had the best haircut of my life with Lee Mukes. Truly next-level talent. Lee was incredibly professional, attentive, and the scissor work was immaculate. I’ve never felt this confident leaving a salon. Highly recommend Lee if you want someone who genuinely knows their craft.“

“Ryan done exactly what I asked for, took his time and knows what he’s doing, highly recommend !“

“Alexis is the best! Always professional, punctual, and she does such an amazing job on my hair every single time. Highly recommend!“

“I'm always so impressed with the haircut I get here. You can really tell that the hairstylists care about what they do. They have done a great job helping me style my medium length hair.“

“I had the relaxing experience of receiving knitters braids from braids by Lee. She was warm hearted, professional and gentle with her hands. The shop was really cute, I felt at ease and I also liked the location of the salon. I would definitely be back, if you want a nice and efficient braid up please check her out.“

“Lexie did an incredible job! I showed her my reference and she did not disappoint. I will be returning for many years to come!“

“Ronika is incredible !!! I have been coming to her for two years now and do not plan on ever switching hair stylists. Not only is she very skilled, professional, and talented, but she is also such a kind and patient human being. Every time I come to her I leave satisfied ! She recently cut my bangs which was a huge change for me and I’m absolutely loving them. She made me feel so comfortable making that change and cut them little at a time so I don’t regret my decision. She also gives the best hair washes and head massages haha. Thank you Ronika for all that you do !!!“

“Great customer service and attention to detail. I got an undercut and it was a very smooth and quick appointment.“

“Very nice lady. Relaxing time. I just get a basic pedicure with no polish but it was worth it for me.“

“Maria is so talented at her craft! She really understands the language of hair and coloring. She has such a lovely energy! It was honestly so fun chatting with her while she did my hair! I've gotten so many compliments! I can't recommend Get Primped enough and I'm looking forward to my next visit! Thank you so much for working your magic on my hair ??“

“I've tried several different places for a simple hair cut around where and didn't love any of them, until I came here. Aryga is super friendly, listened to what I wanted but also provided advice. I liked speaking with her so much more than any other hair dresser I've tried. Not only is much more affordable than others in this area, but it's the best cut I've had in a while. My hair looks great!“

“Best beard lineup I've received. I only come to LA once a year, but I will be thrilled to visit again each time! I left with a refreshing feeling in my face and in my heart - great skill and great conversation.“

“I went to visit this beautiful place; it was my first visit, and it was a pleasant experience because Lulú is a super friendly person. The place is clean and cozy, and you can really feel the positive energy. I genuinely liked the haircut she gave me, and I definitely give her 5 stars because she shows that she loves her work. I hope to return soon.“

“I’ve been going to Bri for a curly haircut for a few years now. She cuts my curly hair dry first then wash and dry and finishes with a cut. Shes super thorough, does a great job and helped me figure out how to best style my hair in a low maintenance way. All around I super appreciate her. She now also does my husband’s hair and my good friend as well (both not curly).“

“I had such an amazing experience at PINOK Studio! The space itself is super clean, calming, and relaxing — you instantly feel taken care of when you walk in.

I booked with Kai, and honestly this is the best haircut I’ve ever had. I came in asking for a very specific style that would suit my face shape, and she absolutely nailed it. I’ve never walked out of a salon feeling this confident before. On top of that, she gave me thoughtful tips on how to maintain my hair so it continues to look good after I leave — something I’ve never gotten anywhere else.

I also tried the 40 min head spa, which was beyond relaxing and made the whole experience feel like self-care, not just a haircut. The service, attention to detail, and care that Kai put in really stood out.

If you’re looking for a stylist who listens, delivers exactly what you ask for, and creates a truly welcoming environment, Kai at PINOK Studio in Pasadena is the one. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“They have THE Nicest staff I’ve ever met. I only did an under arm wax, but I will definitely go back for all of their other services, simply due to their cleanliness and kindness. I’m going to do the diamond facial!“

“Ashley Jade did such a great job with my hair. She is so talented and really listened and asked great questions to zero in on what I wanted. I am so happy with the results. She did a full balayage and root melt and gave me a really great haircut. My hair looks amazing and I know it’s going to grow out beautifully which, as a toddler mom means the world to me because I don’t have as much time for my hair as I wish I did. She was so easy to communicate with during the booking process and is a really fun, kind person and easy to talk to which made our time together so great. Her space is so well designed and relaxing and super conveniently located on south Lake in the Macys complex with free parking! I am so happy I found her.“

“I have been getting my hair done by Rachel for over 8 years and she is the only one I trust to do my hair. I have naturally dark black hair but like to constantly be blonde. Rachel has guided me throughout my hair journey. She always delivers on the color/style that I want without compromising the health of my hair. I moved out of state, and have made the trip back just to see her! I simply refuse to work with anyone else. Book with Rachel- you will not be disappointed!“

“Wonderful haircut! Sherrie is awesome!! Always quick to get me in on short notice!!“

“I just went CLEO Nail Bar (formerly Royalty Salon) for the first time, and had an amazing experience! It has been difficult for me to find a nail salon that does quality work with good customer service, and this is definitely the best place I've tried since moving to LA ~4 years ago. Lea did my GelX extensions with beautiful hand-painted nail art, and was meticulous in her work to ensure everything was to my liking. I also got a Deluxe Pedicure from Tina, and my skin is super smooth and looks amazing. Will definitely keep coming back here - they were awesome!“

“This place is your go to for braids! The team is full of talented, professional ladies who really know what they’re doing and do their best to accommodate your wishes. My son can be pretty particular—he plays basketball and had a very specific style in mind—but they still delivered exactly what he wanted!! We couldn’t be happier with the results! A shout out to Lake, she’s been very courteous, welcoming and patient!!
The whole basketball team was stunned with his hair style! THANK YOU SO SO MUCH!“

“Love love love Bokaos Aveda! Such a welcoming salon with great staff. Owner Hasblady is magic with hair and is such a sweet person. Price is great and you always leave feeling so beautiful! Assistant Sophie was so kind and helpful. Great experience and definitely recommend to all! ??“
