Hair by Regina

I just got my hair done by Regina and i could not be happier. My hair was a disaster and i was spending hours a day trying to untangle it. I finally had enough and i gave Regina a call and she got me in the next day. She used sooooo much product on my hair, she made sure to cover every inch of hair i had. In addition to making my hair look amazing she is also very nice and you won’t get bored sitting there getting your hair done for hours. I would recommend Regina to anyone needing to get a Brazilian Blowout. ¹⁰⁄₁₀

Regina has done an excellent job with my hair! I have had color and a cut as well as a Brazilian blow out all with great results. She is very ethical and accommodating. She wants to do a great job for her customers and takes her time. Her prices are reasonable and her warm personality make my visits very pleasant!

Like many women, I’ve struggled with curly, frizzy, unmanageable hair in the past. I was beyond thrilled to hear of the Brazilian Hair Treatment about four years ago, which is when I started enduring the process. I always dreaded going to get my hair Brazilian’d in the past because the fumes were very strong and unbearable. Also, I couldn’t wash my hair for at least three days after, leaving my hair limp, lifeless, and greasy looking.
Regina at Hair by Regina totally changed my outlook on getting a Brazilian. I always knew it was worth it in the end but I never knew how painless it could be, until I tried Regina. She makes the process much more enjoyable by using a fume fan that gets rid of the fumes from the treatment and she washes your hair after treating your hair, so you don’t have to wait for a few days before washing it. It looks way better right away. Not to mention, Regina is very friendly and nice. I love talking to her every time I go in. She also cut my hair to be a medium length with the layers I imagined. I used to have long hair so I needed to have someone I could trust to go through a drastic cut. All in all, I am a happy customer and definitely recommend Regina! :)

I have had Japanese straightening done, keratin treatments, and Brazilians done elsewhere. Regina is who you want to do your Brazilian blowout. I feel SO lucky to have found her! I love my hair and how easy it is to deal with every morning. She is detailed and fun to talk to! She went over all my crazy baby hairs and was very thorough in her technique. She also doesn’t overcharge and/​or tries to sell you a bunch of stuff. Regina is honest and amazing at what she does. I cannot say that enough. I just wanna hug her (I do) when she’s done with my hair lol.

If i could give her 6 stars, I would. Regina did such a meticulous job on my Brazilian blowout and really took the extra time to make sure it was perfect. She touched up my roots to the perfectly blended color and even threw in a slight trim on the ragged looking ends. She’s a sweetheart, the salon is nice and bright, they have these large overhead vacuum type things that pull the smoke upward to minimize the smell. I’ve had these done before but I’ll never go anywhere else and most likely will start going here for color & cuts too.

I absolutely love Regina. I found her through groupon and now i won’t see anyone else. She does my brazilian, color and haircuts. I have really thin natural curly hair and she has this amazing talent of making my hair look really thick even after the brazilian. Regina is also very kind and funny and very fast at what she does. I honestly will not go anywhere else, just love her!

Regina is fantastic. I go here for my Brazilian blow outs. I have been getting Brazilian blowouts since 2009. I used to go to a guy in LA and I always noticed that I had a few frizzies in random ends of my hair. When I started going to Regina she told me that he had been using too high of heat on my ends because my hair is highlighted. She uses two different flat irons (higher heat for roots and a lower heat one for ends). My hair always looks fantastic — no frizz at all and a light wave so it still has some body. I always leave the product in for a few extra hours and wash it out at home that evening. Cuts down on the appointment time. Also, they have a great ventilation system– I don’t even need the goggles — I just close my eyes when she is straightening around my face. Also, I did research on where to go when I moved to Oc and she definitely has the most reasonable prices around here.

Initially I want to state that I went to Hair by Regina around mid February 2015. This was going to be my first ever straight perm so I was pressing my luck as to how effective the Brazilian Blowout would be.
My natural hair is dry and frizzy. It’s not curly, it’s frizzy. Although some might say I had so much volume, it didn’t compensate for how brittle it felt. My natural hair made me EXTREMELY self conscious. I never wore it down, because it would frizz and become a puffball. I had tried cutting it and getting it thinned out but nothing seemed to work. I had to purchase black hair products such as the leave in conditioner cream along with oils for my hair. Although, those hydrated my hair and would calm it for a bit, within a couple hours my hair would suck up all the moisture and leave nothing but frizz once again. I always had it braided and never had the chance to have an easy hair day, because it would always be frizzy. I even went to the extent of purchasing a silk pillow case in regards of maintaining the oil within my hair, didn’t work the frizz persisted. Through the various attempts to containing the frizz, nothing seemed to work. I didn’t want the frizz to follow me through college so I decided to give it a try.
I honestly was really excited about it doing magic to my crazy hair and making it straight!
After the first wash, my hair was still straight and tamed. Then a few washes went by and it began to get more frizzy. Then after about 6 weeks, the frizz was back. I couldn’t wear it down anymore unless I took the time to straighten it. But why would I have to straighten it if this was meant to relieve me from having to take time out of my day to fix my hair? Regina stated it would last about 3 months, nope it only lasted 6 weeks. Plus, I did use the hair and conditioner she recommended so it couldn’t be that I was using the wrong hair products!
Price: Although it was $ 150 and rather more affordable than the other hair perms I have seen posted in other salons, theres a reason why it’s so cheap. It won’t be long lasting and it won’t be effective. I prefer spending double that amount and getting a perm that will be more effective. Luckily, it was my first straight perm I ever got done or else I would want my money back!
Customer Servie: Regina is genuinely nice! She was gentle when it came to doing the Brazilian Blowout. But be mindful that when you are in the salon she works in, the Brazilian Blowout will burn your eyes! Even though she gave me some goggle things to wear, my eyes would still burn and tear up. AGAIN not worth it. You can go to another hair salon and NOT have to deal with this!
What is it worth it?: Considering the price if your hair is wavy and want to get it straight, then sure go ahead. But if it’s a little more frizzy and curly than wavy, THEN DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY AND TIME.
Some reviews say that overtime the Blowout lasts longer, but trust me you can get a Japanese Hair Perm and make it last for an entire year instead of paying $ 150 every 6 – 8 weeks. I ended up getting a Japanese Hair Perm at Salon De Leon in Norwalk. I paid $ 450 for it, but it has been 6 months since I got it done and my hair has not bothered me at all! It is still completely straight and frizz free.

I had the Brazailian Blowout done by Regina in the beginning of June and it was great! It made blow drying short and easy; it didn’t completely straighten my hair but it took out all the frizz. And what I appreciated most was that Regina was very up front about her pricing and able to give me a quote over the phone when I told her I did have long and thick hair. I’ll definitely go back!

Regina is one of the best Hair stylist in OC. If you need either just a cut, color, or a full Brazilian Blowout, contact Regina for your next hair appt. My wife and I have been coming to Regina for nearly 20 years.

I was a little nervous trying out a new hair salon, but saw such great reviews and decided to give Regina a shot! regina highlighted my hair without foils, which is a technique new to me, and it turned out just how I wanted it; a natural blonde! I will be back to visit her in a few months!

I’ve been coming to Regina to get my hair cut for over 18 years!
Regina is the best hair stylist in Orange County!
I recommend Regina to anyone wanting the best hair stylist that cuts and styles their hair the way they want it done!

I wanted to get Brazilian Blowout done. I have been using the same stylist for several years but my friend recommended Regina. I am always a little hesitant when trying out a new stylist but I went for it. Regina was awesome! I spent 3 hours with her and loved the way my hair turned out. She was really friendly and fun to hang out with. I would highly recommend her for a Brazilian Blowout! She did a great job!

I found Regina by searching for best brazillian blowout in the area and boy, were the reviews correct! I used an amazon local deal and got the best brazillian blowout of my life (and I’ve gotten quite a lot!). My hair is curly and unruly but not anymore… even on a recent vacation to humid Cabo, my hair was manageable and frizz free. Regina is also a total sweetheart and made the two hours in the chair fly by. Will definitely be coming back!

I found out about Regina through Unilocal when I was looking for someone to do my girlfriends Brazilian Blowout. I did quite a but of research and talked to a lot of different places and ended up making appointment with Regina. I called her to see if she had time Labor Day weekend and she squeezed my girlfriend in and also explained to me up front what to expect. All I can say is Wow! Her hair looks like a million bucks and Regina took her time to do a very thorough job at a very fair price. It turned out so good and my girlfriend loves it. She said it’s the best her hair has ever been. Since she is a teacher, this will cut down time from her early morning routine. I definitely recommend Regina and so does my girfriend!

I’ve been going to Regina for my Brazilian blowout almost 3 years now and I must say, she’s the best!
She always makes sure I’m comfortable and makes the best coffee ;)
Air filters all around to get rid of the chemical smell which helps a lot!
The time goes by so fast and the results are remarkable. My hair is the most stubborn hair around and she’s the only one that knows how to tame it. She got me all ready just in time for my sisters wedding. I am so thankful for her!

I’ve been getting my hair done by Regina for over 2 years now. Every 4 months I pop up for a brazilian blowout treatment, we catch up and my 3 hour treatment feels like an hour. The treatment is fantastic to my hair and I don’t think i can live without it!
Already recommended Regina to a bunch of my family and friends and they’ve become recurring customers too.
What adds on to her great service is her concern for the health and safety of others. Her salon is one of the few in OC that uses the air filtering units for the chemical smell.
So if your looking for hairstylist you can trust to transform your hair for the better, Regina is your girl.

Prior to seeing Regina, I had explored different avenues for hair treatments such as Japanese Hair Straightening, Keratin Smoothing, Brazilian Blowouts, etc., to fin what worked best on my hair. I did the same with hair stylists, and when I found Regina my search stopped. She has been doing Brazilian Blowouts on my hair for two years now, and she is an absolute pro at her trade! She is by far the best and truly takes pride in the quality of her work. She is also amazing with color, and I have never received so many compliments on my hair.

I came across Regina as I wanted to get a Brazilian Blowout. Being new to the country i found her using Unilocal.She was very professional and took ample time and made sure the job in done perfectly. She is extremely warm and friendly and It was great to have a lovely conversation with her.
The result of Brazilian blowout is amazing and I am in love with my hair after a long time and don’t have to worry about spending long time straightening my hair and fighting frizz… I highly recommend her… Preeti Mukerji

I found Regina searching for a good place to get my next Brazilian blowout without breaking the bank (on Unilocal of course!). I called her set and appt and was looking forward to a good deal that wasn’t such a long drive! (My other girl who I had Brazilian blowouts with jacked up her prices and to have to drive all the way to West LA. it wasn’t worth it anymore.)
So I called Regina the day before my appt & told her we got a last minute invite to a family bday dinner. As much as I didn’t want to put off my BB any later, I had to reschedule. Unfortunately with my crazy schedule she was able to accommodate at 8pm on a Friday night! Crazy — considering this process takes at LEAST 3 hours. She was very sweet, thorough and having 2 BB’s before, she did a great job. Unortunately for the both of us, this version of the Brazilian Blowout serum didn’t take on my hair! I didn’t realize it until the next day after I washed it– my hair was smoother but still «poofy» and very wavy :(
So I called Regina Monday and told her that it didn’t take. I knew this was very different from my previous experiences (where my hair was wash and go STRAIGHT) so I didn’t understand what happened! She explained to me the BB company changed their serum and sometimes it happens? She immediately offered to REDO the process completely free. nice! She said this tiime she would use the «Cacao» version instead of the «Acai».
So I’m writing this review at home after my SECOND experience with Regina and very happy with these results! I already notice the difference from the first time around. Much straighter with the «Cacao» serum! The only thing is — you have to Blow-​Dry your hair straight. I can’t REALLY wash and go like I had been able to previously. BUT when i blow dry it straight, it takes only 10 minutes compared to 30 minutes + 20 more with flat-​ironing! D:
Definitely a lot less expensive than most BB competitors and worth the search! Will DEFINITELY be going back in 3 months to keep my curly, frizzy hair TAMED. She already made a note in my «card» to use the cacao version instead of the Acai version. So if you know you have stubborn hair before-​hand — ask for the Cacao!!! Hope this helps!
