Yi Fa Hair Salon

Sep 2023

I have been going to this salon for about 10 years, with my family. The owner is Ms. Zheng, and the gentleman is Mr. Xue (pronounced like "suede" without the d). Both are from the Fujian area of Southern China and each used to run a salon there (they are not a couple). Both are very kind, gentle people, and both are complete professionals. Despite limited English, you can show pictures to them (or point to the ones on the wall), and they take their time to do a superb job. As others have commented, I have found that Ms. Zheng does better with women's styles (my mother-in-law loves her work), and Mr. Xue with men's styles (he's my go-to guy).

Can't beat $10 for a no frills mens haircut! Depending what time you go it can be busy and thus you'll have to wait, but if you go during a weekday when everyones at work/school then you don't have to wait long, or right when they open on the weekend. Takes me about 15-20 minutes to get mine cut. I try to get the wife and she sometimes gives me tips for better hair care. For parking, I usually park in front of the Hmart (1 or 2 quarters should be enough depending how busy it is).
