Dean Anthony Salon - Long Beach (CA)

5 /5 Karen Washburn Ness: Michelle is the absolute best. She has been doing my hair for 20 plus years, and the service is nothing short of amazing EVERY time. I get endless compliments on my hair, and I have her to thank. The whole D&D team is top notch.

5 /5 Al Do: I booked to see Daniela for a haircut. I do have fairly wavy hair and was hoping to get a cut that would help to enhance my curl pattern. I’ve been with my previous hairstylist for over 8 years and sadly she moved away. I am thankful to have booked an appointment with Daniela. The way she explained her cut to me just made sense. There was a method to her technique. She ended the cut and mentioned to me that it was our first interaction and she is learning about my hair, so it may take a few times to get a better understanding what my hair type needs. I was amazed and pleased to leave the salon with a new style and look. Many stylists in the past would get lost or give up on my hair. Her persistence to learn what my concerns and expectations really helped me stay at ease. I’m grateful and pleased with my hair. My curl pattern is more defined and my hair feels much lighter without the frizz.

5 /5 Elisa Bravo: Melissa always does such a beautiful job with my hair! My experience is always so comfortable and nice. She is very talented and truly knows how to translate exactly what you want.

5 /5 Mary Ann Bailey: The service and experience at Dean Anthony is unmatched. Michelle always gives amazing cuts and style and her cororing is always great! I’ve even stated bringing my daughter and she loves the experience as well!

1 /5 Hannah Hesseltine: Everyone at this salon was nice, including my stylist. However, I would not recommend this salon for young women with short hair. I came in with pictures of how I style my hair when it’s freshly cut and in its natural texture. Instead of honoring what I asked for, I proceeded to get cut as if I asked for a rounded (and dramatic) French Bob. Think Lord Farquaad cut. My hair now has layers that I didn’t ask for or want. It’s shorter in the back. The entire cut is noticeably uneven. It sits like it was hacked by a weed whacker and its very bottom heavy. And sadly, now, it’s incredibly difficult to style in the ways I’ve always styled my short hair which before, was low maintenance and cute. I would come in to get it fixed, but I’m unsure I’d trust the salon enough to make the necessary changes (or if it’s even fixable until it’s grown out). Overall, really disappointed and don’t feel the stylist took my opinions and requests into account when cutting. I won’t be back and I’m frustrated that I paid so much money for my hair to be ruined. I’m sad to leave this review, but I’m so disappointed with the cut that I feel I need to. :/ I’ve included photos for reference, including photos of my hair after my last cut at another salon (black shirts) and how I typically style it (waved and straight). I showed these photos to the stylist and asked for exactly that cut, but it was not what I received. Photos in the sweatshirt are of my hair this weekend after a cut at Dean Anthony.
