Makin Waves Salon - Huntington Beach (CA)

Emmalee Mangubat Aivee is incredible. I love how collaborative she is with me when we try new hair styles, and also how she takes the lead when I need her to. She is incredibly skilled and has so much knowledge of color and hair texture. It truly is a science and I am in awe watching her work. I trust her completely and appreciate how she always ensures my comfortability. My self esteem has grown exponentially since I began visiting her at Golden Rose. Aivee also plays the best music in the salon!! The experience is worth every damn penny.

Vivienne Doyle I was searching for a blonde specialist in the area and I FOUND her!! I’ve seen Jaelyn twice now and she completed the most beautiful color correction and highlights on me. My hair has never looked better or healthier. Highly recommend Jaelyn and The Colour Attic!

Alexis F Best new barbershop and salon in Huntington Beach!!! Nick (my barber) and Hannah have been in the business forever and have finally opened their own shop! Nick has been my barber for almost 5 years and hes so good at mens cuts that Ive followed him from location to location, but now I wont have too. Nick is accommodating, he listens to your likes and dislikes and can execute with precision. From what I hear, Hannah is an equally amazing hair stylist. For the quality and experience that you get at Guys and Dolls, they are priced fairly. The place is relaxed, the staff is personable and there is always something cold on tap if you enjoy a beverage during your cut. If you are looking for an excellent barber or hairstylist or just looking for a change of scene from your current barbershop or salon, check this place out--they will not disappoint!!

Quinsee Beach I can’t say enough good things about Julie! She did an absolutely incredible job on my hair—better than I even imagined. Not only is she incredibly talented, but she’s also so friendly and made the entire experience enjoyable. She listened to exactly what I wanted and exceeded all my expectations. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a skilled and personable stylist!

Denise Whitmarsh Wonderful Mr Robert Andersen is now at this salon. Very nice, nice owner and great location. And Robert never, ever disappoints! His work is the absolute best!

Yvette Fierro Tammy & Ricky are amazing hairstylists! I have been getting my hair done for 15 years and their quality of service and professionalism is top notch each time! They are so friendly always upbeat and are so caring of their clients. We have gone through a lot of life together and I feel very fortunate that I have them to keep my hair and myself looking good. You will be in good hands. I highly recommend them as your hairdresser, stylist and your go to for all your beauty services!

kirk simpson My hair cutter Kathy is the best. Shes been my cutter for nearly 20 years! Salon is very nice, has private spaces.

Krista Bianca did an amazing job on my blonde hair! She is extremely talented and friendly - I’d recommend her to anyone. She did a great job listening to exactly what I wanted during our consultation and made my hair look just like the pictures I had shown her! I’ve had the hardest time finding a stylist in the area who can achieve the exact look I want at a reasonable cost - Bianca is literally a gem and I’m so happy I found her! The salon is also beautiful and located right next to the beach.

Just Raye I took my daughter into the Elements Salon Studios in HB to get her hair done for school. Stephanie is so sweet and listened to both myself and my daughters wants for her new look. Stephanie did such and amazing job. We are so thrilled we were lucky enough to get an appointment with such a sweet, talented hair dresser. Thank you for the great job Stephanie!!

Michelle Brydenthal Sandy is my go to gal for years and even longer for my mom. She keeps up with the latest trends, is friendly and gives honest feedback and suggestions. The pics below show my mom with 1/2 the head covered in gray turned blonde. Always a beautiful job.
