I graduated from SSA April 2024. The hostility I endured was inexplicable. Ms. Melissa was the best teacher we ever had with 10+ years experience. She was terminated half way through the program. Never explained to us what had happened but we all knew it was out of spite. Starting our program we had Ms.Nunez, known as our campus director for the night students. She was our basic skin teacher although she is a licensed cosmo. We complained since she wasn't a good teacher and relied heavily on the premade slideshows from former instructors. After that, she had it out for our class. She was rude to Ms. Melissa constantly, rude to fellow teachers & students. There are so many horror stories that aren't mine to share but have been brought up to higher up's about her behavior and unreasonable treatments towards students. Nothing was ever brought forth and she remains as devious as ever. Ms. Jess was our second teacher who was hired with only a couple years of experience as mainly a waxer. Asking her questions about how to use our more advanced modalities, she would have to look it up on her phone. She was always threatening us with punishments even if it was a first warning of something we did. Nunez & Jess both treated us like we were in preschool. They always craved respect when none was ever shown to us in the slightest. Towards the end of my program, I was genuinely depressed about going to school. I knew going would result in another incident. It turned into us not even being able to practice services unless we had clients. She wanted us to focus on state board and state board only. Studying was very important but after graduation, we would have all the time in the world to study. Now was the time to take advantage of all our equipment we would no longer have after we left. Counting the days to graduate the program I was once so excited for was devastating. Seeing how teachers were so held down by her was awful. Seeing how classmates after me were confided into our small library to strictly study and nothing more knowing this isn't what we signed up for. For as much as we paid, we deserved to have fun and enjoy our time. I would never recommend this school to anyone in the future and my success was due to ME. I stucked it up, took the anger and used it to make me stronger. I hope someone finally steps in and gets her out of there.
Alexanders Arman Salon & Spa
284 Dupont St STE 115, Corona, CA 92879, United States
I wanted to get my hair cut at a nice salon so I thought I would go to Alexanders Salon bc of the great reviews. Crystal Q cut my hair. The conversation was incredibly personal and awkward but she seemed nice so I just let it go even though i was uncomfortable. It took over two hours to cut my hair. All I wanted was a shampoo and trim. I asked for small layers and between the top and bottom layer was almost 6inches. I took me FOREVER to grow my hair long and she ruined it. Along with the horrible layering job, she cut a section in the middle of my hair SUPER short. She admitted that she missed up but said that it was nothing and no one would notice. As soon as she was done, I just wanted to get out of there. A week later my cousin (who lives in San Diego and is also a hairdresser) looked at my hair and was absolutely mortified. She said it was the worst hair cut she has ever seen and that I would have to cut my hair up to the top layer to correct it. I cried. I called the store owner to tell her my experience. I asked for nothing in return but that I just wanted her to know what happened. It took her over a week to get back to me. After I connect with her, I told her that I would email her the pictures of the hair cut. I waited over a week for her reply and when I didnt hear anything I started called the salon again. She told me that she has talked to Crystal and that Crystal said MY HAIR WAS ALREADY LIKE THAT AND SHE WAS TRYING TO HELP ME! She lied!! and then the manager told me on top of the bad hair cut SHE OVER CHARGED ME as well!!!!! i bet she pocketed the money! The manger said that she didnt know who to believe and offered me a free hair cut. I explained to her that I just got my hair correct and was very hesistant to go back. She didnt offer me my money back OR even offer the difference of what Crystal told me. Crystal is still working there. I was not going to write her name but it wouldnt be fair to the other girls who work there who might actually know how to cut hair. I thought this was a nice salon but not if they employee people like Crystal there who lie and have no idea how to cut hair.
Images Salon
2515 East Coast Hwy, Corona Del Mar, CA 92625, United States
I went to this salon for about 12 years. Peter Barton was my colorist. He used to talk about my friends and keep me entertained while he did a great job on my highlights.Ive always found him unprofessional, in the way he speaks of other clients, the way he pulls my hair out after washing (I stopped letting him brush me out years ago and ask his assistants to do), the way he speaks to his assistants (demands and speaks down to), and the way he has handled a last minute reschedule (not understanding, compassionate, open, and uses unprofessional language).I dont like to make people lose their jobs so instead of going to management I told him how I felt about his unprofessional behavior and lack of consideration for others. When I told him I will go to another stylist he accused me of being rude. One week later I call to see what time my appointment is and they tell me I am not allowed to go to the salon because Peter Barton is my stylist and he doesnt want me to see another stylist.Owner AL Perez said he didnt want any retaliation from Peter so he personally will not see me. Stated Peter is your stylist. I explained I am not property and will not be treated as such. He said nobody will work with me because Peter has forbidden it. I guess Peter Barton runs he salon because the oweners are afraid of him.I am leaving the country soon and have no recourse for finding another appointment at now 6:22 PM on a Fri in a storm before my vacation. This salon prefers to keep its unprofessional team member (because hes been here 22 years and I dont want any trouble), Peter, than to honor their client of 12 years.Also Peter badmouthed the owner so badly I wont provide details here.
Sola Salon Studios

If i could give this place 0 stars I would. I am very disappointed about my recent experience here at sola salon in Corona. I had a family trusted hairstylist name Thalia that has been servicing my family and I for years and yesterday she applied bleach and my hair had a chemical melt that caused my hair to fall off and burn. all of my back mid section of my hair is broken and short. when I cordially asked thalia for a refund or a compensation for the damage, due to now needing to spend so much money to repair what she did, she refused and blame it on my prior hair products which I had not dyed my hair in 8 months prior to going to her. She blamed it on me when it came to a mistake that she made and she stated that she “didn't gain anything out of this she only lost time and products on me”. Yet she collected $185 that day to just burn off my hair and not even giving me the color I wanted. I trusted her as my stylist to care for my hair and she failed to do so. I am extremely disappointed this happened to my hair and more that she won't take accountability for what she did. Her lack of attentiveness caused this issue. I don't recommend anyone going to this salon or to this stylist. This hairstylist is not concern about your hair health or care for your hair she is more concerned about how much money she makes from you. She behaved in a very inconsiderate way. I went home with burned patches of hair missing and she didn't care about it. I won't be doing business here ever again or with Thalia.
Tiffany Scott Salon
3800 East Coast Hwy b, Corona Del Mar, CA 92625, United States
Tiffany Scott hair extensions Claim that they cause no damage to hair with these extensions... not true in my case !! I wish I didnt believe the posts in the videos of hair becoming healthy with Tiffany Scott hair extensions!! Lies, my hair has been the worst health and my hair color is not even platinum!! Vania told me she could get me platinum like my old pictures, all lies. She corrected it it was better but its not what I intended to pay for that level of work. I think I paid 325 or 350 for a partial highlights that did nothing for my hair color. I wanted to go platinum. That was not achieved. She corrected it but it wasnt what I wanted overall it was just better than what she did. When I had my haircut I just reviewed recently it was horrendous I lost more than half my hair. It was terrifying I will never go back to the salon. I spent $1600 for something I thought was going to be beautiful it did not look like any of Instagram pictures. My scalp hurts Barry port placement of hair extension. Way too high up I could not even wear my hair up and I was getting Comments at work from people saying my taps are showing because they could see my extensions.. when youpay almost $2000 and people are saying that thats embarrassing!!Whats worse was she didnt give me an itemized receipt until I asked her about the charges and she charged me for a blending haircut 125 she spent less than 10 seconds cutting the edges inside literally as part of the install she told me she did refund me but that is very shady. She spent a total of less than two hours to get me platinum or highlights and install.. I was your only client on a Saturday which was suspicious for a good hairstylist. So shes been less than two hours for everything when she claims she spends a lot of time on install it was not customize it was very fast I spent a lot

Got my haircut here for the 1st time and OMG, this place is a little gem. Its hard to find, kinda like a speakeasy hair salon. The interior is gorgeous, the people are so nice. Will cut my hair while the owner was so friendly and amused me with all my question about his cute shop.Its right next to the beach and there are a couple coffee shops nearby. Its the perfect location, perfect atmosphere, perfect customer service and impeccable hair skills. If it could give it any more stars I would!

The hairdresser is excellent the owner is very friendly however the third visit have different receptionist not the same friendly one. maybe because I am Asian and not from here he was very rude. When I pay with cash straight away he checked my money to make sure they were real. It was harshed, I am not from here my boy friend who currently works here always wants to pay for everything with cash as the conversion using card from my country is a lot he prefer to pay with US dollars.It is okay if it was a common thing they do here, it just him very Rude person and how he does it.Just don't like Asian I guess or dark skin !!!What a shame because the ladies are nice !!!

I read so many good reviews and was excited to finally have my hair done by a respectable salon but it didnt turn out that way for me.I had an appointment with miss Gina on May 6th she called me a few minutes before my appointment to let me know that she wasnt going to make it because she was sick which I understand.She said that she should be in the next day and if shes not going to make it shell call me, I didnt hear anything so Im hoping that she was feeling better. I even called the salon to make sure that she was there and no one answered so I left a message, I still didnt hear anything back so I went to the salon and the doors were locked but the sign on the door said that they were open.I called miss Gina to see if maybe she would answer I wanted to know if she was coming in or if I miss understood what she told me, its now May 10th and I havent heard anything from the salon or miss Gina.
