Studio M Hair Design

I found this place on Unilocal and did my Brazilian with Laura first time about 7 months ago. She did an amazing job! it last easily about 6 month. She also changed my hair color to which I wanted for about 2 years and couldn’t get what I wanted else where. Laura is simply amazing. she took her time listening to what I want, check my hair quality and gave me her honest opinion. I went back to her about month ago for my second Brazilian. I also had Mernoosh once for styling my hair and she was great as well. Now this is my place to go

Ive been a loyal Client since 2004 !!! I have dark black asian hair and i want to be like Elsa the Ice queen. Platinum blonde goals lol. Shes been doing this for me for over a decade ! Never fails !
Ive gone somewhere else when she was out of town and I came back crying lol No one has been able to do a better job then Mernoosh. will forever be faithful to you! Love you so much ! Thank you for always taking care of me.
Price is always consistent and work is always on point. I Love, love, LOVE this place! Everyone else does a good job also. I know because i come here alot. I see everyone leave very happy. Id give more then 5 stars if there was an option!

I had my hair dyed ombré style and cut by Kristie, and she was great! Not only did it look good after my hair was cut, but it also looked great when i got up the next morning. I have thick, straight, and long hair. As a consequence, my hair always laid flat against my head. But she noticed that, and offered to layer it in a way that gave it a soft bounce. My hair is also dark brown with a lot of red undertones, but i wanted my hair dyed with more golden brown highlights. She was able to successfully get it to look very similar to the picture i showed her without frying my hair. She was patient, and paid very close attention to my satisfaction level. I entered the salon feeling regular, and i left the salon feeling amazing. Even my über driver who took me back home noticed my hair said it looked liked the styles he sees on movie stars! It has been a while since I’ve been compared to a movie star, so it def made my evening.

Best hair dresser on earth! I fly from Atlanta every 3 – 4 months just for her to do the Brazilian blowout. Won’t let any one else touch my hair! Highly recommend!!! Plus she’s very easy on the eyes and the sweetest lady ever!

On a rainy day I decided I couldn’t deal with my frizzy hair anymore so I skimmed groupon for deals on a Brazilian blow out and came across studio M. They are close to work so I called and crossed my fingers for a same day appointment and they got me in a couple hours after calling! Kristie took care of me and I am so happy. She is SO sweet and relatable and my hair turned out amazing. I had been somewhere previously and wasn’t super happy with my hair cut but wasn’t sure if it was me or if my cut was as messed up as I thought it was. Kristie sweetly offered to fix up my botched hair cut and I am SO thankful she did because I haven’t had a cut this good in awhile. Nothing but smiles leaving Kristie at studio M and I will definitely be back for all of my hair needs. Thank you!

I found Mernoosh from Groupon and then did some Unilocal research on her. She had such great genuine reviews on Unilocal which really influenced my decision to book with her. I left her a message pretty late in the evening and she called me back a short time later. I really didn’t expect to hear from her until the next day due to the time but was so pleasantly surprised. I explained that I wanted to be seen ASAP and she offered me an appointment just two days out! She was very professional on the phone and made sure to provide me with the exact cost my appointment would be so there would be no surprises. I really appreciated that.
Her salon is located in a small shopping center with plenty of parking and meters. She’s upstairs in a super clean and cute salon. I loved the way the salon was decorated and it just has a really welcoming feel to it.
I’m in a new city and the idea of finding a new stylist literally had me stressing. But right when I walked into the salon, I knew I made the right choice. Mernoosh was so fast and graceful. She did such a thorough job and fast! I had a Brazilian Blowout and Haircut. My hair is SO silky, soft and frizz free ANNNNND I LOVE MY CUT. She really listened to me and got it. Easy.

I was way overdue for my Brazilian straitening and I have been looking for a new place. I am so happy that I found this salon. They have convenient hours and they were able to fit me before my vacation. The salon is so cute and clean. From start to finish I was done in 45 minutes! I am super happy with the results and will definitely come back again.

Laura is always friendly, professional, and does a great job with my haircuts. I highly recommend her. Thanks Laura!

LAURA is an AMAZING stylist! She started with cutting my boyfriend’s hair and now she does our whole family. I went to her for my cut & color and I love it! She is very attentive when you are describing what you want. She asks lots of discovery questions to make sure both of you have the same vision for the end result. My boyfriends daughter is five and she got her hair trimmed as well. Laura did a great job making her feel comfortable and also gave her some curls that she loved. :) Glad that I found her and this salon!

Laura is ahhhhmazing and better than any therapist! I was feeling so unattractive when I was driving to Laura’s and she made me sooo pretty!!! She has a great artistic eye and her extensions/​Brazilian is out of control

I got my Brazilian about a month ago so this review is long over due but I wanted to make sure I still loved my hair because if I didn’t, I would give this place a 1 star. I’m giving it a 3 because my hair looks fab!
I bought a group on for $ 99 for a Brazilian blow out. I’ve been wanting to get one for a while and the reviews for this place was great, so I decided to try it out. Before I bought my group on, I spoke to Mernoosh, the owner, and she said that it would be an extra 80 dollars because my hair was so long and thick. That made sense and my total would still be cheaper than other places. I decided to go for it.
Mernoosh is very sweet, but she isn’t professional. My appointment lasted almost 2 hours but it seemed like she was more concerned with her phone. She was texting and answering her phone the entire time. She did ask me if it’s okay for her to take a call, but I’m not going to say no. She’s a grown freaking woman, do what you want girl. But just know it’s very unprofessional.
Before she even looked at my hair, she said she would trim it. She didn’t even ask me. But I thought okay, might as well get healthy because I knew the tips of my hair were really dry. And a trim shouldn’t be too much more money. All she did was trim and she charged me an extra 40 bucks. ON JUST A TRIM! I’ve gotten full on hair cuts at that price. I was not happy. Had she told me it would be 40 bucks extra, I would have said no. She just made a decision on her own and trimmed my hair. Money hungry!
Although I do love my hair, I wouldn’t get a Brazilian again because I work out so much, and every time you work out with a Brazilian, you have to wash your hair because salt and sweat isn’t good for it. And the more you wash your hair, the more the Brazilian fades out. It’s for people who sit there and only want to look pretty, in my opinion. And even if I wanted a Brazilian, I wouldn’t come back to this place.
It’s a small cute studio on PCH with plenty of parking outside. It’s located on the second floor. Convenient location but they rip you off. Well, she ripped me off. The studio is also very clean. Like I said, I love my hair. She did a great job with the blowout and my trim, but way overpriced and I feel like she kept upping the price cus I didn’t know better. Messing with the wrong girl lady!

I went to Salon M for my first Brazilian Blowout. Although I have not showered yet, nor has my hair been washed since the product was put in, I am loving the results.
I was told that the price would be increased by $ 50 due to the length of my hair, somewhat what I expected. The facilities are cute and clean but I am quite confused about the information I received regarding the services. Based on the research I have done, Brazilian Blowout product DOES NOT need to be left in, nor does leaving it in lead to any benefits. Once the straightener is applied the hair should be washed and restyled.
I was told that I should leave the product in for a few days, not crimp my hair, not sweat and wash it out in a few days. This is not customary for Brazilian Blowouts, I’m confused as to if this was told to me to save time and to make me feel as though I should leave it in and not have the stylist re-​wash my hair.
My eye have been irritated by the remaining product left in my hair. Although the stylist and results are great, I wish I would have done my research and asked more questions to know exactly what was being put on my hair.

I’ve been getting my haircut by Laura at Studio M since the day they opened over 4 years ago. Laura is a great hair stylist and an even better person (she is a crack up and very easy to talk to)! The salon itself is great — good location, easy parking, comfortable, etc.
I strongly recommend this business!

I came from out of town for an event and needed someone to give me a Brazilian blowout. Thankfully, Laura came through with an appointment, and proceeded to get my hair stick-​straight. She has been getting blowouts for years and her hair is so healthy. She’s a walking advertisement for the treatment. And she’s super nice and super fast.

Kristin recommended a Brazilian Blowout to help with my dry, frizzy, wavy sad hair. Not only can she cut and do great color but she def knew how to fix my hair. Everyone has noticed a difference in my hair. Silkier, shinier, and blow drying is easier than ever.

I found this place on groupon for a brazilian blowout and glad I did. The place is very bright and welcoming and the staffs are super friendly. Laura did an amazing job on my hair. I came in with coarse thick and dry hair and came out with shinier and smooth hair! I would totally recommend her and am looking forward to my next session :)

I came in via a Groupon for a Brazilian Blowout by Mernoosh. She did a wonderful job and is very warm and nice. Part of it needed a touchup (I have funky hair) and she was very happy to reapply on that one section, free of charge, and even fixed a haircut flaw (from another salon.)
The salon is very light and is conveniently located on PCH near the 55. However, it is back from the road on the second floor so it is very peaceful. Check it out! I know I will be back!

Kristie is uh-​may-​zing. I’m super picky about my hair stylists and since mine moved over a year ago I’ve tried multiple and finally found my new girl. I like a stylist that is a perfectionist and Kristie definitely is. You can tell when you watch her that she has awesome technique and is super educated in her craft. Glad I trusted her to cut my long hair to an inverted long bob. She did an awesome job and I love it!

My second time coming to this salon for a Brazilian. It was recommended by a friend! The salon is cozy, clean and adorable! The staff always has a smile! Great beautiful energy when you walk in. …very inviting!
I had the Keratin done by Mernoosh the owner! What a wonderful person. Super sweet. I was waiting and someone came in late and she was still her sweet self. In OC the hairdressers can be very Divaish, so to go to the heart of Newport Beach and find such real kindness is surprising!
Her prices are very reasonable! You can easily be taken for a ride sometimes with hairdressers after they are done. But not at this place!
Location and parking is great! Easy of off PCH and lots if parking!
Come and see owner Mernoosh:)

My first time here and of course having gone through some trouble with my hair in the past, I was a little skeptical. But I found Kristie online and figured I’d give it a shot and I’m so glad I did. I loved the vibe, the salon is super cute and well put together, not to mention Kristie makes you feel almost at home! Not to mention I was lucky she was able to do my hair the weekend I had plans and desperately needed a hair change. Got a very, very nice ombré done and couldn’t be happier. Everyone loved the color. Definitely coming back and definitely making sure Kristie’s the only person to deal with my hair from now on! Thanks girl :).
