Mark Vang Hair Design

The best hair cut ever. Mark is a great profesional really knows what he is doing. My hair looks so healthy I am so happy. I love Mark!!!

Mark is a miracle worker.
I got a terrible cut somewhere else a week prior. It was choppy, the front was dramatically shorter than the back (I said the word ‘mullet’ first and he agreed) and it was hiding in a ponytail so I finally searched ‘Asian hair’ in Addison and he was the highest rated result. Thank you, Unilocal!I looked at his portfolio, straight dense hair clients like myself
He was able to fit me in the next day, a Saturday afternoon. I arrived and he was with a client who sounded like she was a repeat client — a good sign.
Ten minutes later, I’m in his chair asking what he could do. He was very gentle in breaking the news to me, I’ll need to go short to the point that it won’t be ponytail length. (His words, «So if I mess up, you can’t hide it.» I had seen his work, I was hopeful.) I think he was surprised how easy going I was, so everyone be nice :). He power-​washed my hair (fast, not intensity), dried it, flat ironed it (he asked if I had one — nope), and I was able to check that this cut wouldn’t require products (I bike to work, no style survives heat + helmet).
He doesn’t say more than he needs, and I’m introverted in person so his music was much better than silence.
He took a call for another appointment during my visit — another good sign.
I left with a shorter but hair that I don’t need to hide. I miss my long hair, but don’t miss the mullet.
I don’t know what shampoo /​conditioner /​products he uses but as a person with very sensitive skin, I was amazed my hairline wasn’t breaking out. It usually does when I switch shampoos or have it washed in the salon.
Bonus: he accepts credit cards, and is appointment only.

I found Mark from Unilocal so I think it’s only fair to post my fantastic experience as well. Since moving to Dallas 3 years ago I have tried out stylists for both haircuts and color all over. He is hands down the best. I have been going to him for both cut and color for about 6 months. I originally went to him for color correction and after he made me look beautiful again I let him do whatever he wants. He suggested a Keratin or Brazilian blowout for the Dallas humidity. According to the texture of my hair he suggested a Brazilian blowout. Again perfection. You will not be disappointed visiting Mark in fact a few of my friends go there and absolutely love him too.

Very pleased with Mark Vang’s haircolor he did! Nice guy! Fair price! He went above and beyond to make sure the haircolor was perfect! I will go back, and I live hours away, but think his work is worth the drive.

Well of course I came to see Mark again! He was as sweet as always and paid attention to detail. He cut my hair with me standing up because my hair is long — sitting with the hair at a lower height makes it harder to judge the shape and precision of the cut.
And of course I got exactly what I asked for! I finally have the blunt, one length, super clean style that I’ve been trying to get for a few years. For some reason, other hair stylists would always try to give me «fringe» layers to frame my face or cut my hair into a deep U shape. Mark listened and gave me exactly what I wanted. I love it!
He offers you a drink, the space is cozy, the music is fun, and he always remembers what’s going on in your life so you can chat about it. $ 50 for a great cut, conversation, and someone who actually cares about you.

Mark is such a genuine and nice person! I am new to the Dallas area and was looking for a stylist that was not only experienced with layers, but also had a good personality. He listens and takes joy in his job! I am VERY happy with my hair. Go see him. You won’t regret it!

OMG!!! I am EXTREMELY happy with Mark’s work. I have never had a Brazilian blowout before and I was so skeptical and scared on the end result and the knowledge of the person who was to do the work. I called on Memorial Day expecting to leave a message but he answered and was willing to see me that day even after I explained to him I had long hair. He was very nice and pleasant on the phone and completely follow that tone throughout my appointment with him. He has an absolute genuine passion and talent for his work and it shows. He explained to me all the steps he was taking for this process as we went through the appointment and explained pros and cons on the treatment. It was obvious he had plenty of experience with this treatment because he was thorough and honest on how this treatment would end up based on the type of hair. Ihave found my new hairstylist for life!

DEFINETELY GO HERE.
no doubt, you will not be let down.
Mark is truly dedicated to his job which shows from his 7 day a week, flexible schedule. I called him to schedule an appointment the day of, and was surprised to have my appointment the same day in a little less than an hour! He will make it a personalized experience, and offers you a drink and some munchies if you are there for a few hours. I was there about 4 hours since I had a lot of hair to deal with to highlight, from 7– around 11, and I know I can fully trust him. I am 17 years old and I came by myself and felt quite comfortable during my appointment. afterwards, we were the last ones left in the whole building and he made sure to see me off to my car since it was dark. very responsible. and you can tell how much he CARES about your own hair and no matter the time, he will make it pretty much perfect! this guy deserved a nice tip; he went above and beyond and did other things with my hair and used really nice products such as keratin on it, without an extra charge! he even hugged me at the end! if you are reading this, you NEED to go check him out. he will NOT let you down

Mark is an excellent stylist and an amazing person!
He is a true artist and knows so much about color. He will always give you honest advice on what will look best for you, so trust him!
He is very flexible with scheduling appointments and accommodates his clients with beverages and the BEST music. I always feel at ease when I go see Mark because I know he will listen to my needs and leave me looking beautiful.
Lastly, my hair has been growing so much faster since I’ve started seeing him and I’ve gotten more compliments on my hair than ever before.

I moved to the Addison area in November and just yesterday worked up the courage to let a stranger cut and color my hair. Mark did an amazing job and stayed late for me. I have found my new hair stylist!!! I definitely recommend him.

Mark is amazing! He is not only a talented hairdresser but also such a sweet individual. I found him on Unilocal after my last hairdresser moved away.
I travel for work, so it’s always hard to schedule appointments. Mark will always go out of his way to accommodate my schedule! I’ve managed to get last minute appointments thanks to his flexibility and hours. He is open 7 days a week!
I’ve been to Mark for haircuts, highlights, color, and color correction. Everytime it’s been such a pleasant experience, he really tries to understand your hair and what you want to achieve. He will also make recommendations, and it always turns out better than expected!
The salon itself is a cute little room in the Plaza Salons building. Go north on Montfort Dr till you see Walmart and make a left after the Car Wash.
I will definitely come see him anytime I’m in Dallas! Highly recommend!

This review is hard for me to write because I found Mark to be a nice gentlemen. By I do believe it should be out there. I struggled because there were so many reviews, mostly with hair coloring that were great and some with haircuts but I wasn’t sure if they were as extreme as my cut was going to be.
My hair sat about a little over half way down my back and I was looking for a cute swing bob. This is not something new to me as I grow my hair out and cut it ever year or two… but it’s been a while. I went with multiple (5+) pictures all showing about the same cut and explained what I wanted. Not too short in the front… about shoulder length would be good and the back I would like higher. I was assured by friends that the pictures I picked were more then clear on what I wanted.
Again Mark is EXTREMELY nice! Unfortunately I walked away with more anxiety then I’ve ever experienced. My job puts me in front of hundreds of new faces a day and being self-​conscious is not really an option… I was more then ever getting into my car.
First was the shampoo and conditioning… you know how usually you don’t want it to end… how it feels so nice… I didn’t get that at all… no towel supporting my neck, no sense of oh my my hair is getting a deep clean… nothing.
Once the cutting began we didn’t talk much, which was fine with me but a little awkward in such a small space and being the two of us. Again… not a big deal just be prepared. Music was most excellent though!
As the haircut went on my anxiety grew. This was not for lack of him spending time on it because he did. Lets just sum it up to, one side was slightly slanted… the other not at all. I looked like a boy. the back laid weird and was the same length as the side that didn’t slant. Plus the way it sat an hour after the haircut it flipped out… not cute on a bob. The one side that slanted seemed to be patching from texturing while the other side just was straight edged… not texturing. The was no movement. I asked for a little shaping of the bangs and there was none. On top of this… the front is beyond shorter then my shoulders… the last thing I wanted. When he was done all I could say is thank you. I was in shock. I have never been steered wrong by Unilocal and this one was bad. I went to Target after and actually asked a worker about it I was so self-​conscious I wanted to know it wasn’t just in my head. She nicely took me over to the mirror and we examined. Not only did she see what I saw… she pointed out a couple chunks that lay longer then other on the side that was just one length. I was in tears by the time I was in the car again. Not her fault but I was embarrassed. I slept two hours last night because of anxiety from what I was going to do. Do I go back and get it fixed? Is it fixable? This might seem extreme but I had never experienced such anxiety about this before. I was not prepared to go in front of all the people I meet a day and look the way I did. I didn’t want to go outside at all. Needless to say I didn’t go back to get it fixed… instead I waited for a local salon to open and walked in immediately. The hair dresser was sweet when I explained the situation and she explained that maybe since he cut it when it was wet he just didn’t double check himself when it dried. I am not sure what went wrong with my experience as he has wonderful reviews and again he is an extremely nice guy. I am hoping it was just a bad haircut for him… everyone has a bad one now and again. But lets just say instead of going back and getting it fixed by him I decided to fork out $ 50 for another stylist to fix it.
I wish I had pictures to show y’all but I was so uncomfortable I wouldn’t even take one to send to my mom.

I’ve lived in Texas for 2 years and had the worst luck with finding someone good at hair. Friends of mine and these reviews solidified my decision to go to him.
Mark is a GENIUS! I absolutely love my hair (I just did a cut). He took the time to really understand what I want and was beyond precise with the actual cut. Never have I seen someone pay so much attention to making it what I wanted.
His technique, understanding, and overall attitude is just what you need in a hairstylist. I will go to Mark again and again!
He’s also extremely sweet :)

Thank you all Unilocaler for those reviews which helped me a lot. Mark is amazing! He’s nice and friendly. And the most important is I got a wonderful haircut. I absolutely go back again.

Mark is a lifesaver! He was able to correct my botched attempt at using drug-​store dye to touch up my roots. He removed the brassy orange and replaced it with a blonde to match the rest of my hair. Will be returning here soon!

I absolutely love Mark! Not sure how long I’ve been getting my haircut but it’s been awhile. Mark is very engaging and personable. He is also very accommodating to any schedule. He will come in on his off days and work you in. I’ve never had a complaint and he uses some of the best hair products out there like; Moroccan Oil, Biomega, Wella. I highly recommend getting the deep conditioning treatment each month. His room is very hip and he always a great set of music playing. When I leave here, I always feel fabulous with my gorgeous hair styled by Mark!

Mark is a lifesaver!
I visited Mark after having a disastrous coloring appointment with another stylist that turned me blonde right before the holidays!
Mark was able to fit me in for a color correction appointment and his last appointment of the day so that I could get detailed attention. He wanted to know the background of what color I was supposed to have and how I ended up blonde. He gave me detailed information about how we could remedy the situation and clarified that I was okay with the recommendation. Then we got started.
Mark was completely friendly, hospitable and charismatic. He made trusting him very easy! He’s also a perfectionist in the best possible sense of the word and care that I left his salon feeling happy and renewed with confidence.
If you’re looking for color correction, style or general salon services, Mark is the one to see. I was completely blown away with the level of service and quality that he provided me with.

I found Mark on Unilocal.He was able to schedule me in the next day. When I tell you he gave me a beautiful haircut, I mean complete strangers were stopping me to compliment my hair. I actually didn’t expect it to be as nice as it was. My best friend said it was the best cut for my face frame she had ever seen on me. He went above and beyond what I asked for. Mind you, I had been going to Toni&Guy at the Galleria and had been paying more! He is very sweet and talented and takes the time to ask questions before hand. The next time I’m in Dallas I will be calling him again!

I had intended on writing this review some time ago. My daughter and I saw Mark a total of three times, twice for me and once for my daughter.
While it is obvious he is talented, even talented individuals make mistakes, that is only natural. We were recipients of two very big mistakes from my perspective and have not returned since. As it seems he has great reviews on avg, your chances are very good that he will do well by your hair. But that was not my case.
I have curly hair and as such it requires some moderate length for the gentle spiral curls to appear. First cut went well, but second cut he did after drying my hair in such a way as to remove curl. He cut WAY to much of length off the sides which ruined the entire style/​look and it took about 5 months for original length to return so I could go back to style I look best in. I sent him a pic of the sides of my hair and he refunded the money I spent on cut. While refund was nice, certainly didn’t compensate me for having to hate my hair and lack of pretty curls after too much cut off. From pics it looks like his talent is with longer hair (which my daughter has but I don’t).
Also, this was a BIG mistake to me, as he made my teenage daughter VERY uncomfortable when he did her hair and told her she looked «sexy». Perhaps he thought he was complimenting her without taking her age into consideration. Inappropriate, and because those two incidents happened within same small period of time I decided to never return.

Absolutely obsessed with Mark. Just recently moved here from New Jersey and was really hesitant on who would do my hair. His reviews on Unilocal really swayed me towards him.
I went in for a deep conditioning treatment and a cut. My hair was honestly a mess. Once he was done I was more than pleased. He really advises well on what you should get done and what you shouldn’t.
I am happy to say that I have found my hair dresser and would highly suggest for people to go to his salon! It feels very comfortable and you really get that one to one interaction that you want with a stylist.
