Union Salon - Pasadena (CA)

Angela Babcock I’m giving two stars because the staff are so nice and pleasant. But, the blow outs are not good. I went a couple of years ago asking for the Hollywood style. The stylist used a flat iron that she pressed so tightly together that hairs were being yanked out as she went down each section. I said something to her, that I could hear them breaking and she said she couldn’t hear it and it was fine. The style was not at all the glam waves from the look book. I ended up redoing my hair when I got home before going to a wedding. My second style was a few years later, for another wedding. The stylist was so fun to talk with but my hair fell flat. I wanted the southern hairdo that is supposed to be big. He didn’t use product and my hair was just sad on my head. Again, I had to fix it at home. I really want to have a great blow dry place but this isn’t it.

Mary Fineman Saw Sonia in Suite 6. She is the greatest colorist in the world!!

Tiffany Yeh Ive been seeing Isabel for my haircuts for the past three years, and she’s absolutely fantastic! She always knows exactly what will look best for my hair and face, and she’s great at suggesting styles that suit my lifestyle perfectly. Plus, she’s constantly up-to-date with the latest trends and techniques - Isabel’s skill and passion really shine through in her work. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a skilled and knowledgeable hairdresser! The salon itself is super cute and well decorated, plus tons of easy and free parking in the attached lot.

Delia Flores I recently had the pleasure of getting my hair cut by Cecily, and I cant recommend her enough! From the moment I sat down, I felt completely comfortable, she is incredibly professional but also genuinely sweet and kind. During my consult she took the time to truly listen to my concerns and goals for my hair. Throughout my session Cecily patiently educated me on how to properly wash and style my hair. She recommended products and taught me silk scrunchies and claw clips are my hairs best friend- which was incredibly helpful! What truly sets her apart, is her passion for textured hair. My hair looks and feels healthier than it has in years. The cut itself is perfect – it allows my natural texture to thrive. Texture I didn’t even know I had!

Alina Aleksandrova I had the most incredible experience at this salon. The salon itself was clean and very nice. The front desk staff was friendly and accommodating. My appointment with Ruth was absolutely wonderful! She listened to all of my concerns, worked with my wishes for how I wanted my hair to look, and adjusted for my hair type and styling preferences. For the first time ever, I walked out of a salon with my hair looking exactly how I pictured it in my head! Ruth was also super sweet and so much fun to talk to! I highly recommend this salon!

Vanessa Castañeda Curtis is amazing. He gives you exactly what you request. My highlights came out beautiful. I started bringing my teen daughters who have curly hair and they love their cuts. During COVID, I cut my own hair and he helped me get it back into shape. I have been a loyal follower for a number of years.

Elsa Lopez-McLeod Was greeted warmly and punctually by staff at Bakaos. I had all my questions and concerns addressed and left feeling and looking like a million dollars . I was in the hands of very competent stylists

Christine Kim Recently got my hair done with Kristin (@kolourkrissy) and she was amazing! She took the time, care, and effort to make sure I got the hair style that I wanted and made sure to follow up with me on hair products and maintenance. Having straight Asian hair that is thick and tends to get a little poofy, she really got me to trust her to know what style would work best for my hair while getting the style that I wanted. For anyone who is getting a cut or color done, I HIGHLY recommend getting your hair done by Kristin!

Maria Peralta Yuriy did an amazing job! They took me last min, and yet didn’t rush to give me a fresh amazing new look! He explained everything he was going to do to my hair, and went through some steps I should do at home. I’m obsessed with my hair and can’t wait to get more services here, of course once my hair is healthy enough… thank you so much for such great service!!!
