I have had my roots straightened since 2014. Since moving to SF, I was struggling to find somewhere to permanently straighten (Japanese straighten) my roots since so many places seemed to have such mixed reviews or were insanely out of my price range (5x more than what I use to pay back home!). I had about 7 months of regrowth. HK Mona did an amazing job for a reasonable price. My hair is healthy and easy to manage again. Thank you! ♥️

I got a good haircut for $25 plus tip. She looked at the inspo pics multiple times and asked questions to make sure I was happy with the process. Highly recommend.

First time getting a haircut with Helen. Best haircut I've had in a long time! Appreciated her taking the time to ask me beforehand exactly what I wanted and was very precise in her cutting. Very easy to call and make an appt. Not only is it a great price but you get a high quality cut. I will definitely come back! Many thanks, Helen!

Great place for a trim! Helen was very knowledgable about my hair type and what would look best when framing my face. She explained to me very clearly what she was going to do before cutting my hair. She was also super quick and efficient. Will definitely be coming back :) Just as a heads up, this place is cash only!

I love this place. She is literally such a nice and funny person. She really does care about how satisfied a customer is which is so important!! I got a color removal and color in 3 hours but conversing with her made time go by a lot faster. Highly recommend she's the best!

I have been coming every few months for the past 1 and a half years for touch ups to my straightening. I LOVE the results, the attention to detail, and I will keep coming back!

Very pleasant experience. Just wanted a simple trim to keep my hair healthy as I try to grow it out. Helen was so nice, she respected that I wanted to only trim a little bit, didn't go overboard. Framed the hair around my face. I loved that she only did what I wanted. Will be coming back

Wow! I am completely blown away. A typical haircut is a 1.5 hour ordeal for me and Helen was able to get it done AND BETTER in less than half the time. She strikes the perfect balance between attention to detail (especially in understanding what you want) and efficiency. I would give her 10 stars if I could.
