Never had such a bad haircut. Photo speaks for itself. I told her I didn’t like it and asked if anyone else could fix it. Then SHE got upset! Told me these were the long layers I asked for. No one else working at the salon tried to help. She then ripped off the gown and demanded $50. I can’t believe she had the audacity to charge $50 when a 12 year old could have done better. She just cut an outline, barely picked up my hair. Probably never watched a YouTube video or was taught how to cut hair. Don’t know how I’m supposed to go out in public with this cut.Service: Haircut

The service is not consistent. You need to know who is a better hair stylist there. Laura, the owner, isn't good at cutting hair and expensive, not worthy.

Perfect Japanese straightening!Recently, I did Japanese straightening at HK Hair, and it was the most professional straightening I have ever had (and I had at least 10)Let's start with the owner- Laura, she is professional, knowledgeable, and caring. The place was clean and organized, with fresh flowers, large tv screens, and good music.The team is excellent, detail-oriented, and professional- they take every step very seriously, and the result was and still is perfect. The place isn't cheap but fair and definitely worth it!Highly recommended, and I will definitely come back!Service: Hair straightening

H-K Hair and Beauty was very professional. One of the best experiences I have had in a salon. I went in with an idea and all of my questions were answered directly. Very happy with my coloring!Service: Hair coloring

Started off with a cut from Denise then Bella did her magic and transformed my coarse, stiff, frizzy, box-dyed hair to what you see in the after photo. As a 40 something, wanted a fresh look but wasn't trying to look like my teenage daughter and Bella customized the color herself and got it just right! So lucky she was able to fit me in last minute due to a cancellation. Compliments still coming my way over my hair

My second time getting Japanese hair straightening treatment and a haircut at H-K, I can't express how obsessed I am with their work. Brilliant customer service, a lot of attention to detail when doing your hair, and a fast and speedy work. Tiffany did my haircut in the picture and I love it.

I have been doing my Japanese treatment for 8 years now with H-K. Laura and her team are amazing. There are 2-3 ladies working on your hair so the process goes faster. I have long hairs and it takes about 4-4.5 max to get the touch-up treatment done. I will keep continue going to her for my hair treatment.

Bella has officially become my hair person, and I really hope this convinces you that she should be yours, too! Sorry in advance, my review is quite long, but TLDR; GO TO THIS WOMAN IF YOU WANT YOUR HAIR FIXED AND DONE RIGHT! -- After a long year of relying on Sun-In to lighten my hair in the beginning of the pandemic, I made a last-minute decision to get my hair done before my bday (in 2021) because I was tired of my hair being orange/red, and was doing some intensive research on Yelp until I found this place. As alluring as the other salons were, I chose to go with Bella because of her specific history with doing color corrections and because of how gorgeous/natural the pictures were on here! Also, I thought the pricing was quite reasonable, considering she'd have to correct my hair color. I think it took about a day to hear back from Bella (FYI, the salon doesn't have her availability so you have to text her directly for availability), but once I heard back we got the ball rolling pretty quick! She also asked me to provide pictures of my current hair, the history of the hair the past 2 years, as well as including pics of what I wanted. Day of: Once I got to the salon, I sat down with Bella and knew right away that I was in good hands. I got on the chair and she was really thorough about analyzing my hair, as well as explaining what would be possible based on the pre-existing color. I had originally gone in expecting a balayage to ash blonde, but we ended up doing baby lights with a root melt because I had made the color so high up, and she was very straightforward in explaining what we were doing instead and why. She even informed me about my super oily/waxy hair on the back of my head (which I've had issues with for YEARS), explained why it was like that and reassured me she was going to help with that. Overall, I felt very comfortable, reassured, and confident with Bella and totally trusted that she knew what she was doing (she's been doing this for 10 years!!). The process: I was there for about 4 hours total. We processed my hair twice, then she toned and styled it. Bella is SUPER funny and will keep you entertained on the salon chair. I'm super gullible so that also made it pretty funny when she'd joke that my hair wasn't lifting, or when we were done with everything after just bleaching it She clowns with you, but it's super funny and made the time pass quickly. It was also really cute seeing how she would interact with the other stylists there, and seeing their dynamics made my time there feel very homey and entertaining. She clarified the oil/wax out of my hair like there was no tomorrow, but boy is it clean and free from wax now! When she toned my hair, she was straightforward and told me that there would be a good amount of gray in there to help level out the orange in my hair, and that it'll gradually fade to blonde. As she was styling my hair and I actually SAW IT, I was admittedly quite nervous because I thought that around my roots were a little too gray, and I even had the nerve to tell Bella "I'm worried I look like an old person." But once I saw the pictures, I realized I was horribly mistaken. Bella had the humor to tell me that I should tell people what I said and testify to how wrong I was, so here I am. She took my raggedy looking, orange/splotchy hair and turned it into almost platinum blonde! We both said "who is she???" once she finished styling my hair. I actually COULD not recognize myself with this new hair. The transformation was stunning, and I still cannot believe this is my head of hair! Another thing I appreciated was how transparent she was about pricing/quoting, even with the added root melt that I hadn't expected before coming in. I was very comfortable with the price considering other Bay Area prices, and I think the results were honestly worth way more. She is an amazing hairstylist and artist, and she is definitely someone to trust your hair with! Overall, my experience with Bella has been amazing, and I am

I was so grateful that Bella took me in. I first asked if she can brighten my money piece that I already had. I came in and she inspected my hair and analyzed it. I didn't realize how uneven my hair color was before I came. I said what ever you can do to help correct whatever she can.Thank god Bella worked her magic to make my hair back to life! I am recommending her to all my friends.

Today I had an amazing experience getting the Japanese straightening. The process while long, os so worth at the end with silky smooth strands!! My hair is so manageable after the process for months :) I especially like the girls Laura and Anne, they are very gentle and so easy to work with. Anne gives the best shampoo ever, so relaxing! Will come back as long as their prices are affordable.

One of the best hair salon for Japanese straightening. Laura was very nice and professional. She gave me an appointment with short notice as I was coming from out of town. The staff is very knowledgeable and made the right recommendations for my hair as I had color and bleach. There are always two people working on your hair and they did a great job in 4 hours including a hair cut. My hair is straight, smooth and frizz free..I would highly recommend this place for straightening at a reasonable price.

If you want to straight your hair go fo it. But please consider somewhere else for the color. You should see my hair which is so a rainbow when I asked for only one ash color. When I asked to fix it they refused and blamed my eyes, haha. Never go there again.

I got my balayage done by Bella. I was so happy to find Bella on Instagram. She was so quick to get back to me and I was able to get in through a cancellation. I haven't had my hair colored in about 2 years. Bella did such a beautiful job transforming my hair, I honestly couldn't recommend her enough. She not only was very professional and super talented with what she does, she also has such a great sense of humor. My hair appt went by so fast. The salon itself was clean and busy- says a lot about the salon.

I had an amazing experience! I have curly 3c/4a hair and decided to get the Japanese Straightening Treatment for the first time and I am so happy with the results! Everyone there was super kind! They were able to do my natural hair with no issue. I 100% recommend this salon!
