Sara’s Beauty Salon

Melissa did a great job on my hair. She takes her time and really listen to what I want and instead of damaging my hair she does it in stages and I’m really happy with my new style and color.

Great service! My hair came out great, Christina was my stylist! Very reasonably priced! They gained a customer for life!

I wish that I could give negative stars. Ok. I found this place on Unilocal several months ago. I used to go to my guy for many many years, but he moved to Whittier and I moved to Ontario and the distance is just too far. The first time I went here I saw Christina who did highlights on me and I did not have a problem so this review is not about her at all. My good experience with Christina brought me back here. I came in on the morning of May 5^th when they opened not knowing that Christina didn’t start until 11. I remembered all of the wonderful Unilocal reviews that they’d received so rather than wait for Christina I let the next available stylist do my hair that was my biggest mistake ever. I told the girl Blanca that I wanted all of my hair to be the dark red color that my underlayer was and I wanted my layers trimmed. She proceeded to warn me that my hair (all of it) would be darker. I told her that that is exactly what I wanted I wanted ALL of my hair to be dark like the under layer (Christina had done highlights only on my top layer after an ombré job I had done almost a year prior.) Blanca put the dye in my hair and waited about 40 minutes then washed it out. It was a really quick wash out and for some reason I thought that she was going to trim my hair and then wash it again because the wash was so quick but that wasn’t the case at all. She trimmed my layers (supposedly) and then begin to style it. There was still dye all over my scalp as well as my hairline there were dots of dye on my face that I had to ask her to clean off more than once…, I told her that my hair wasn’t rinsed properly and she said that she would clean up the excess and that it was fine. Once she styled my hair and turned me around to look in the mirror it turns out that it was NOT the same color as the underlayer. She could tell by the look on my face that I was not happy. She went to talk to someone and then came back and asked me if I could come back later so that she could try to fix it. Uh no. The reason I went first thing in the morning is because I had things to do I Was preparing to get married. And why didn’t she try to fix it right then and there? She said for me to come back the next day and she would do the necessary steps to lighten the underlayer. I didn’t want anything lightened!!! I wanted it all to be darker!!! It turns out she was new there coming from Supercuts and had only been at Sara’s for one month. Do you think that they offered me a discount? Do you think that they didn’t expect me to pay for this hack job? Oh they did. It was an slightly expensive mistake but you live and you learn… I ended up going somewhere else to have my hair styled for my wedding day and was advised that my layers are horrible it’s going to cost me around $ 100 to fix it and make it right. Today is my first time straightening my hair since the incident (as I often wear it in a ponytail or a French braid lately) and I am absolutely appalled by what Blanca considered layers. I’m going to have to cut my hair shorter in order to fix this. From what I understand everyone else there knows what they’re doing and Blanca can probably give a good regular haircut but I would stay away from anything intricate like layers, color, or a wash with her.

Love this salon, Christina does an amazing job with color. I recommend all my friends here!

We’re do I begin? I stumbled across this hair salon because my hair stylish never got back to me. So I decided to give this place a shot. I ended up getting Melissa to help me and let me tell you she’s AMAZING! I’ve never been in a hair salon were they actually LISTEN TO what YOU want. And that is exactly what Melissa did.
Usually other hair salons will listen to you but will end up doing whatever they want, like cutting to much of your hair off when you tell them just a trim. Melissa actually listen to the look I was going for, thin highlights with a base color & haircut not to short. I’ve gotten highlights before at other hair salons but they’ve all been a nightmare. But not this time, I was so happy with the results! I was in there for about 4 hours but honestly it didn’t even feel like it. She was also very friendly, asking me about my life & what I like to do etc. she doesn’t just sit their and stay quiet. She builds a relationship with her clients which I love.
I’m more than happy that I found this hair salon and more happy that I found Melissa, and she listens to her clients!
Usually if I don’t know what look will look better I’ll ask the hair stylus and they always tell me what they think but when I asked Melissa she told me «I can’t tell you because it’s what you want & we all have different taste» & it’s true. She didn’t pressure or force anything on me that I didn’t want. She was all ears. And the price is so affordable! What I paid here was less than what I paid when I went to another hair salons for just color, and take into consideration I did color highlights & haircut here. I will be definitely coming back here & i recommend to anyone that has ever had a bad hair salon experience to come here! Ask for Melissa!

Came here for the first time today and I loved it!!! Melissa did a great job on my hair. She cut as much as I asked she didn’t pressure me into cutting more. I got my hair washed cut and styled for $ 25 which I think is a great deal!!! I will be coming back in a few months for sure!!!

Incredibly affordable cut and color!!! Very accommodating and professional staff! It had been a year or more since I’d had a haircut because, like a lot of people, I had developed a fear of scissor happy stylists. I’ve been trimming and box coloring my own hair but it was time to get my damaged ends and DIY summer ombré removed by a professional. My experience was kind of up and down, but in the end I got a cut and color I absolutely love.
I wanted a nice dark chocolately/​espresso brown color and a cut with long layers that kept as much of my length as possible. My first visit, I was taken as a walk in with no appointment. I called and asked if anyone had an opening and Christina happily took me within 1hr of my call. She colored and cut my hair and I was done in about 2hours. When the towel came off I was a tad worried because the color looked lighter than I thought it would, but my mom warned that hair color looks different in different lighting and it needs time to oxidize so I rolled with it.
As far as cut, I asked Christina if she could please cut my hair dry and straightened (since I have wavy/​curly hair) so it would be easier to see how much was actually being cut off. She listened and carefully cut of my dead dried ends and gave me and amazing FACE SLIMMING long layered cut!
The one road bump in my hair adventure was a couple days following my color, the Matrix Socolor 5BR brown/​red color I picked BECAME BRASSY and looked ORANGE in the sun! It wasn’t immediately obvious because my hair looked fine in the dim lighting of my house and at night, but during the next day in sunlight… oh man I was CARROT TOP with hot roots! I temporarily covered the hot roots with dark brown hair mascara and got through thanksgiving without anyone noticing then called Christina for help!
I texted her pictures and asked for advice then she took me immediately without appointment again same day! She applied some violet/​blue based toner for about an hour and VOILA! I got the amazing espresso/​chocolate brunette I have now! I absolutely love it and she didn’t even charge me for the color fix/​touch up! I highly recommend this salon! They care about customer satisfaction and they will make sure you love your end result! My mom comes here as well and has her hair done by Leticia!
Just be sure that when u get your hair colored, you are very clear about what you want, bring reference pictures, and DEFINITELY mention if you’ve dyed your own hair before and when so that your stylist has a heads up and can better anticipate a color reaction like hot roots or brassiness and possibly prevent it! I probably should’ve mentioned to her that I DIY’d my ombré and had been dying my own hair box colors (red, brown, black) all these years. Thank God Chrisitina knew just what to do! Thanks Christina!

It’s been about a year, and I wanted to update my review. The girl who did an amazing fix on my hair is named MELISSA TREBIZO. She is now my GO TO hair stylist. I’ve been back several times to see her.
I’m happy with the transition of haircuts she’s given me as I’ve been growing out my pixie cut. Strangers, I kid you not, feel a need to come running towards me at malls, supermarkets, and where ever else they see me to ask «who does your hair!?? I love it! That’s EXACTLY how I want mine!». I’ve even began bringing her business cards since I can’t remember the shop’s name or phone number.
Ask for Melissa, you won’t be disappointed. She’s done extreme colors like dramatic purples for my dark brunette hair that also transitions beautifully into an ashy blonde. Her cuts give me full volume and movement.
Love her! She’s also the biggest sweetheart!

Melissa is the best! The only one I will let touch my hair. Been going here for years. Everyone else is really great too. Great customer service!

Aracely is awesome ! Just went for my first time and was blown away… my hair was very damaged with fading red dye and I came out looking 100% better for an affordable price.

I’m so in love with this place there so kind and funny I personally come to Melissa I love love love her work she’s amazing

This review is strictly for Christina… She’s the best at highlights! Very professional and very talented at what she does. I love going to her.

Love coming here. Arci has been doing my hair for about 2 years. She does an awesome job.
I’ve also recommended her to a few friends and they love her work as well.
Prices are fairly reasonable.

Went in at 3:00 pm on a Tuesday after calling in and being told to come in and they said no one was available … Uh okay I’ll never try again here! Bad costumer service very unfriendly

Wow! Okay where do I begin?!
So I hardly get my hair done for numerous reasons, 1-​I can’t afford the outrages salon prices, 2-​I can’t afford the maintenance and 3-​I never get what I want nor anywhere close to what I want. But I needed a change BADLY. It was time to start fresh with myself. I looked for salons with the one dollar symbol (times are hard but doesn’t mean I should look like crap) and came across this one. I was willing to give them a try. I called same day for an appointment and they told me to come on in and Christina would be the one doing my hair.
I’m not going to lie, when I pulled up I asked myself if I was sure about this. Trust me! You won’t regret it. I arrived 15 minutes early and right away I was taken in by Christina herself. She asked me what I wanted and bam, she quickly got to work. I got highlights, color & a cut. What I loved most was that she actually listened to what I wanted!!! I told her what I’ve told stylist in the past, to cut my hair but keep the length. I didn’t think that was possible but she totally did it! I LOVE it! I’m so happy with the results! Not ony was it so easy to talk to her but she gave me her actual honest feed back. She didn’t try to upswell any products from the salon. I asked her for her preference on different products and all were items I could find at my local target. Will definitely be coming back. Already recommended my 2 sisters who are willing to drive 2 hours to her.

Arcelia is wonderful! Very attentive, gives great cuts for a fraction of cost of other salons. I have done an updo with her and loved it. Now getting haircuts by her and adore them. Will try hair color soon as well:)
5 stars!

I like low maintenance hairstyles so I only get my hair cut once maybe twice a year. I don’t spend a lot on my hair so I always ask for shoulder length hair with textured long layers. My previous hairstylist moved away about 6 years ago & I’ve been on the hunt for a place to cut my hair for years using that description & showing pictures. The more expensive places I tried understand the concept and are good quality but I don’t want to sacrifice my wallet every time & the last 2 years I settled for supercuts because of the price but not quality & have never been satisfied with the way they cut it. This year I was searching for a place because I was not about to settle for supercuts again.
I’m so glad that I found Sara’s Beauty Salon because I don’t feel that I sacrifice the quality or service & it’s affordable. I came in at 930AM on a Saturday & the place was packed. Arcelia acknowledged me & asked me if I wanted to wait or make a same day appointment for 1130 when she had an opening. I don’t live far so I told her I’d come back & when I did, she was ready for me. I used the same description & some pictures & Arcelia gets it! She walked me through it, made sure we were both on the same page & made small talk while cutting it which made the time go by fast. I think I found my new place!

Aracelia!!! Best hairstylist ever:). Always does a great job and with a smile. I recommend all the ladies but Aracelia especially. Ive been going here for the past 2 years and she always pampers me.

This review is strictly for Aracelia, she is just simply great! Her prices are reasonable! I always get what I want. She does listens to the request you have in mind and also she gives you suggestions but of course its up to you what you decide at the end. She works super fast too and always keeps checking on you or letting you know she will be with you if she is busy with another client. She is way friendly and makes conversation which can make the time goes by fast too! I do recommend anyone to give it a try! She is no like other hair stylists were you ask them to cut an inch and they end up cutting 4 inches. Overall she is just awesome! Give it a try!

FABULOUS! The ladies in the salon make you feel very comfortable and welcome. Very very reasonably priced, especially for the quality of the services I received. Leticia was my colorist. She is quick and very knowledgable. She did an amazing job getting my hair to the blonde I wanted. Definitely recommend to all my friends and family.
