Absolutely the best experience ever! I brought my 16 year old daughter in for a color correction before her 1st day of 10th grade. Katie met with us for a consultation and explained the entire process, making my very nervous daughter feel at ease. My daughter's self confidence was not very high due to her curly, previously boxed dye hair. Katie originally said the process would take 3 plus hours, however she had her done in less than 3. The pricing was spot on with what was originally quoted and priceless to see the happiness on my daughters face and overall demeaner. I will highly recommend The Blonding Boutique to anyone looking for blonde and color corrections.Services: Hairstyling

Katie the owner is a SCAMMER. If she messed up your hair and you asked for fixing or refund she will just hiding from you, not respond to your text or phone call and run away with your money and feel no guilty or shame of herself. How could she sleep at night when she took people money without anything in return. Be aware of this lady if you want to get your hair done here cause you will not get what you paid for. She doesn't know what she doing except taking your money and hiding when she made a mistake. Save your time, money and your hair and go to a real professional hairdresser This lady can not be trust.

Thank you SO much ladies!! After searching so long for the right salon to trust with very long hair, and trying to go blonde at that, I have miraculously come across The Blonding Boutique. Katie and her daughter were so sweet from the moment I walked in and listened to exactly what I was looking for. They also gave me some excellent tips and recommendations for treating my new blonde hair. My curtain bangs and trim were absolutely on point as well! Highly, highly recommend this gem of a salon. I am so happy with how my hair turned out and I will definitely be returning! Thank you again!! ?Services: Bang trim

Please don't assume that the customer cannot afford for your services. I called and explained that my former hair dresser messed with my color and extensions and asked if they were able to help me. Immediately she started to say that her services were very expensive and for the next 10 minutes that was all she could talk about. I do extensions for over 10 years and I know exactly what to expect about pricing. She was so uninterested in having me as a customer that she handled the phone to someone else in the middle of the conversation and left me talking. I honestly felt that the whole talk about how "I'm very expensive" was way off and will bring my hair somewhere else. I work in luxury consignment and also in the entertainment industry and I have to look good, so If I am calling a hair salon in Newport Beach, it's because am interested in a top notch service and I SURE can afford. I'm not delusional. I'm sorry for this review. I am giving 3 stars because although I will never be your customer, you need to improve your customer service and prejudices.

Went here for a consultation to go platinum blonde and I was told I needed color correction. I had two more consultations with two other hair dressers that told me that they lied to juice me for more money… beware of this place , they just wanna up charge you for unnecessary services

I had been wanting to bleach my hair to a light blonde shade for a long time, and had not been able to get to that shade at previous salons I had been to. Once I came to this salon, Katie and Rebecca listened and made sure that they were doing exactly what I wanted beforehand. I was finally able to get the color I wanted in one session! I am very satisfied with the service and definitely recommend this salon!

Been blonding for 5 years plus!! This mom and daughter duo is not to miss! They are experts, if you have trust issues with stylists blonding you, just go here. They will do great and you can feel comfortable knowing they can blonde you without the damage other stylists might do just bc they are in a time crunch!!

I called Monday afternoon and was scheduled for a consultation Tuesday morning, not only did I get a consultation but I was also able to get my hair done. words can't express how much better I feel, I previously went to a salon that messed up my hair. I needed corrective color because I had three different colors thanks to Katie my hair Looks so amazing not only does it look good but she also explained to me exactly what is wrong with my hair and what I need to do to get it back Healthy. I was also able to get my lash extensions which look amazing she also does make up, lashes, nails,extensions, facials and so much more. The salon makes you feel so comfortable and it looks so beautiful when you first enter it looks relaxing and when you go in it's beautiful. I think I found the salon I will be going to Forever. I totally recommend this salon to anybody that wants to get an honest and beautiful job done on their hair, lashes, or whatever you may need to make you feel good about yourself. Thanks Katie you I have no idea how much of a difference you made. I feel so much better!

let me start out with the statement: I am the most neurotic picky sensitive to change human being. when I have a vision for things I'm dead set on getting it right in fact when I came to the salon one time I literally brought a mood board that I printed out for the exact hair tone that I wanted lol! anyways ... Rebecca and Katie are my literal hair angel guardians. I REFUSE to let anyone else touch my hair. I have pretty much 20 inch waist long hair and the most impressive(all thanks to the sweethearts at blondeing boutique!) thing about that is that it's all real- no extensions needed a.k.a no breakage and it's all platinum white bleach blonde.... but the original color is a dark almost black brown. this means that they're so good at keeping my hair healthy while achieving the brightest craziest silver hair!! which is a near impossible thing to do. I don't know how they do it but I've never had major breakage with this salon. I think I've had about two hairstylists like three years ago which caused a lot of breakage and they always left me coming home with dirty blonde and never what I actually wanted. I remember always being scared of the blow dryer and they would still use it after a bleaching session which caused a lot of damage. now, I have flowy silky long silvery fairy hair! the texture of my hair feels so healthy despite being bleached almost white! favorite thing about them is that they are so gentle and accommodating to what you need! On top of that it's always a good atmosphere in the salon no judgment ever, genuinely love being there for the service AND company. I highly recommend anyone to come to the salon even if you're not going for a crazy platinum blonde if you just want eyelash extensions or any kind of service under the beauty industry they definitely will do an amazing job. See you soon! Also: to all the bad reviews... ok honestly its super important to KNOW WHAT TO ASK FOR. ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS... ask for Olaplex. And be HONEST about the work you've had done, even at home (yes, even sun-in or lemon juice to lighten hair) because if they don't know the chemical history of you hair... obviously they're going to over process it unintentionally which leads to damage. You MUST really do your research and know what terms to use, how to "order off the hair menu" and be super vocal about it... be hyper detailed, because if you don't you're hair stylist won't really know exactly how to properly treat you hair. It seems as if the common denominator in the bad reviews of fried hair is a lack of knowledge in how to properly communicate to a hair dresser for perfect results. and also the before pictures of a few of the scathing reviews clearly have over damaged hair to start with.. girls you got a stop going to salons with already fried hair and then leaving bad reviews that they fried your hair even more, hairdressers are hairdressers they're not God ok. it doesn't hurt to be a bit crazy with people lol like I came in and with super direct and every step of the way I would ask what's going on, and make sure that I fully understand the process and that they fully understand if they're doing what I want, really great service here! all the bad reviews seem to be focused on being too scared to speak up and "pressured", Katie is an amazing person and so is Becca and if you feel like they're not paying enough attention to you, or running around too much or if you are unsure if they're leaving the olaplex long enough on you: just speak up and say it! they won't take offense to it, it's just basic communication skills girls!

I have traveled the world to some of the best colorists and hair salons, from Miami to LA, and never could I achieve that perfect blonde on my hair. So when I heard of The Blonding Boutique, I decided to do the 4-hour round trip drive. I met Katie and Rebecca at The Blonding Boutique and what Katie did to my hair is exactly what I had imagined, wanted and more. I couldn't believe, that in one visit, I was a perfect blonde!!! They are so sweet, she listened to what I wanted, and the result was far from amazing!! I will never go anywhere else.
