HairMasters

I’ve had two haircuts here, and they’re the only two I’ve had in a decade where my wife noticed that I got a haircut. Really short (when I said take nothing off the top), uneven bangs, uneven sideburns.
They’re open Sundays, which pushes this up to two stars.

I can cut better than her, i cant go outside with this hair, she messed up my neck, she doesn’t have any skill i dont know how she is working there as a stylist, she treated me like a sheep, i ll never go ever!

I would rate this zero stars if it was possible. My hair was completely ruined and all I asked for was a 1 inch trim on very easy to cut and style hair. One gal totally messed it up and then another one tried to come over and «fix» it and made it 10x worse. Then, both of the stylists tried to blame the last person who cut my hair, which turns out was another stylist at this same place. Yeah, it’s an inexpensive cut, but I would have been better off cutting it myself with dull scissors. Stay away from this place, they have no idea what they’re doing.

Deeply regret coming here — terrible attitude from the stylist, an awful haircut, and the place was just really dirty. Went with my husband and kids for them to get simple trims — my husband walked out with an uneven buzz cut and said the stylist, Olivia, was so rough as she combed through his hair it actually felt painful. I wish I had read the Unilocal reviews first, because evidently another customer had this exact same experience with Olivia. We decided to leave before she did my son’s hair because she was just so unfriendly and seemed like she’d rather be doing anything other than cutting hair. Maybe this salon would be better with another stylist but we are definitely not going to try this place again.

I was so glad to have found this salon so close by in the neighborhood. I started seeing Aleida and was excited that she does such great work with color and has given me my favorite cut!
Unfortunately I have been stood up twice now. I have called and made an appointment with her directly and have showed up and they told me she was not coming in that day. I’m sad to say I won’t be coming back here, but I have very limited time and need a hair stylist I can depend on to at least give me a call if she won’t be able to keep the appointment.

This place has always been super variable, but never quite *this* bad. Stay away from Olivia, she kept trying to implant the comb in my head and ripped an earring out of my ear. Anyway, after all was done with things didn’t seem too bad, she kept futzing with my hair but mostly okay. Although any questions were met with major attitude. She then scolded my son for «taking seven suckers «–he had zero, and left with zero. He looked upset and embarrassed as everyone turned to look and she (Olivia) continued to stare him out and make sarcatic comments. Seriously, if you get that bent out of shape about this, quit giving out suckers. Anyway, I get home and see that the reason she kept futzing with my hair was to hide how uneven it was. if you notice a problem fix it, though I doubt she has the skill, her main skill seems to be intimidation. Awful hairdresser and not a very likable person.

This place is hit or miss. My husband. Seems to get goos hair cuts. My son some times does. One woman Sam/​sue? is not so good, goes too fast and always leaves something lopsided. She also argues with you if you suggest somethings not quite right.

I’m not a fancy fella, but I certainly appreciate a good haircut. Aleida did my hair last time, the last couple times actually, and I like it.

I highly recommend Hair M. in Magnolia and Ching is my stylist

I have been going to this location since 2012, and have done so primarily due to the close proximity to my home. I’ve had a couple stylists do my hair over the years, but recently have discovered Aleida. Who is also the new store manager. She’s an amazing stylist, engaging, genuinely concerned with how you feel about your cut, and overall a really great person. Great addition to the team, and if I should move out of Magnolia for any reason, I would still venture over here just to have her continue doing my hair. For the record… my partner is Loyal to Samantha at this particular location, and is very pleased with her as well. Great job ladies!

If I could give this place zero stars I would. Terrible haircut. I asked for 2 inches «just a trim». She cut off at least 4 inches and it was hacked to death. She tried to put in layers at the bottom or something but it looked choppy and horrible. I had to go to another stylist elsewhere to fix it and he laughed saying it looked as though someone put my hair in a ponytail and chopped the ponytail off. He could barely make any sense of it at all. Seriously how hard could it be to just trim a couple inches off the bottom. My teenage daughter could have done a better job.
Now to discuss the hairstylist mannerisms. She was rude. She didn’t listen to me. She didn’t even dry my hair or give me a mirror to let me see it, the back that is. Probably because she didn’t want me to see the horrible mess she made.
Just please, do yourself a huge favor and go to a reputable salon. You will end up going to one anyone to fix your hair after going here. Horrible.

Let me preface this by saying I have been here once for a trim (it was good), and I wanted that again this time (a trim) since I have my regular color appointment at Seven coming up. I’d rather save a little on something as simple as a trim.
But after my recent visit, just… NO.
I saw Chandra recently, and it was an epic disaster.
First of all, the salon really is filthy. There is hair in every nook and cranny, even wedged inbetween the crevices on the CHAIRS — how is that possible?
Secondly, my «stylist» really did not listen to me. I asked for a trim, to just cut the ends off… She took off way more than that. Way more without asking me *ahead of time* if that was OK. For example:
–Stylist cuts off a chunk of hair
–Asks me, «is that too much?»
… Yes. Yes, it is too much.
A «stylist» shouldn’t ask you how much is too much AFTER she’s gone and chopped it all off.
Other than being terrible at a very straightforward hair cut (seriously, looking at it after I’ve washed it, I have no clue how this person got a beauty license), she had a bad attitude. She seemed half there. When I was checking out at the front desk, she was staring at her phone.
Yes, it was a $ 20 haircut. but you’d think that someone employed by a hair salon would at least know how to cut hair.
Never again.

The worst hair cut I have EVER had! There are probably good stylist there but BE CAREFUL because the woman who cut my hair cut it completely CROOKED. As soon as my boyfriend saw me — «your hair is more than inch longer on the right side». I tried saying something but, my hair stylist wasn’t too responsive. Do your research and find our who the good stylist are or you in for the worst haircut of your life!

I see Stephanie every two weeks and I won’t see anyone else. She’s an amazing stylist who gives a great haircut consistently. I can tell she really cares about her quality of work and she caters to her customers need. I wont let anyone else touch my hair. Glad I found skilled stylist.

I guess the problem is that I called and asked a question. I don’t have a problem with people who don’t speak english well but rather than talking through my request with me until she understood my question, she just hung up the phone! It seems a little excessive to me.

Can’t say enough about Phuong at Hairmasters in Magnolia Village for a guys haircut. She does outstanding work and I appreciate her sunny and upbeat outlook. The best thing I can say about Phuong is that I recommend her to my friends — and get thanked by them for it.

Worst haircut I’ve had in a LONG LONG LONG time. I should have just paid the $ 60 to get my hair cut by my PROFESSIONAL stylist.
1. The «salon» is dirty and unkempt — seriously. YUCK!!! There are shards of hair everywhere;
2. They nickle and dime you — I’m sure they charge you extra for a wash (and they use black gloves when washing your hair, what’s up with that?!), and then they want to add on $ 3 for a conditioner;
3. You have to sign in on a little sheet they have at the front desk;
4. A stylist or assistant or whatever the hell she was was just flitting about, doing her own hair, checking her makeup, doing this and that, and generally sucking time;
4. This was not a relaxing experience. This was a «why the hell did I come in here» experience.
Okay, so I know that it’s a cheaper experience than a regular salon, but just because I’m paying less doesn’t mean that I don’t deserve the best service that a salon can afford.
My stylist did not take the time to do her best work. She DID take an inch off of my hair (which was what we discussed) but the work was simply shit. My stylist did not double check her work. She did not feather or blend her cuts. It was not a well-​rounded haircut in the slightest. I did not see a stylist certificate posted at her station with her photo on it. When cutting and drying my hair she let my hair hang in my face. She did not dry my hair completely and just let me leave with wet hair. What kind of professional does that?! Unprofessional and she did not live up to a professional standard, much less her own standard of excellence, which should be higher.
I don’t like the fact that they nickle and dime you for every little thing. It pisses me off. A hair cut should be a relaxing treat and experience and instead I got told told that if I wanted conditioner it was going to be a three dollar more charge. She put de-​tangling conditioning spray in my hair anyways so she could run a comb through it after she washed it anyways, so what exactly was the three dollar charge supposed to be for? Not to mention that conditioner is PART OF THE SERVICE. You can’t charge for that, its not a treatment service, like say, a toner or a color treatment.
I checked the time from the time that I signed in on that stupid sheet to the time I walked out. 15 minutes. You cannot give a professional grade hair cut in 15 minutes. It simply cannot be done, even for a man’s cut. A service should take AT LEAST 45 minutes.
Moreover, if that simply wasn’t enough, I went through my haircut a few days later and found that on the back of my head I have a chunk of hair cut to only about an inch long. It sticks straight up like Alfalfa. I am livid.
Needless to say, I AM NOT HAPPY. Completely unprofessional and unacceptable. I paid $ 18 for this!!! I should have just stuck my head in a blender and hit the power button. Would have been about the same experience.
There’s no way in hell I’m ever going back. (This place USED to be a really great place to go for an inexpensive cut.)

Michelle cut my hair with my most recent visit, and I will be going back to see her again for my next cut! After I came home and my husband commented on how great my hair looked. I let him know who and where I got it done, and it turns out she is the same person who cut his hair last (and he looks great too!). I have been seeing the same stylist for the past six years at a very expensive salon, and I can’t believe how much i have been paying compared to the cost at Hair Masters. Michelle took the time to listen to what I wanted and really gave me exactly the look I really liked and was looking for. It was a refreshing change, she is friendly and really knows what she is doing. going back, for sure.

I went back recently. She thanked me for my review, then smiled at me with those sincere eyes of hers. –bing– Unilocal fairy gives you one more star cuz you’re special like that. :)

This review is for Phoung, the stylist at Magnolia Hairmasters. Up until the recession, I was a lifelong customer of Gary Bocz salon. After I could no longer afford the cost of foils there, I decided to learn to do it myself. Well, THAT was a big fail so I found a better way and now I get the exact results at half the price. I do my own overall color including the roots, then I go to Phoung for the foil. She advises me exactly what I need to do and takes care of the foil highlights. And the best part is, I can get my highlights, leave her a generous tip and I now pay less than $ 100! Phoung also knows how to cut hair as good as anyone. She isn’t as creative as a Bocz or Gene Juarez stylist, but she CAN follow a cut perfectly and so I can go to her for a tune up between cuts. I highly recommend her! She’s awesome and saves me about $ 1000 a year!
