Huynhchi’s Hair Studio

Ok Tai and Joey are now officially my colorist and hairstylers. I have NEVER walked out of a salon fully satisfied and completely happy with my hair until today. I’m so so so happy I came here and texted Tai to setup an appointment, and I will for sure be coming back for touchups etc. Honestly these guys are so talented and underrated. I personally liked how their salon is small and very personal, and you literally have two people working on your hair together the whole time. Tai colors and Joey styles. He listened to exactly what I wanted and gave me options but I fully trusted him with my hair and wasn’t disappointed. Basically he gave me a medium Ashe blonde color melting into a lighter beige blonde towards the ends. I told him I wanted more color towards the root of my hair so whatever part I use it’ll look great instead of only having to part on one side all the time. He then gave me a little trim and gave me tips on maintaining my hair so it lasts, which is not what a lot of hairdressers would tell me.
Tai and Joey both really care about their clients and were really nice and have great work ethic. I feel so much more confident already and I can’t wait to go back.
The other salon I went to gave me one color, and did half of my head leaving a weird line across my hair and it was really awkward. And I paid almost 300… But Tai charged $ 180 which is was really surprised about cause he cut, balayaged, color melted, and styled so I tipped him well. They also saved my hair cause it was dead, really dry, and brassy. You will not regret going to Tai and Joey! Love them!

5 star quality hair and service for such an affordable price!
This review is for Tai. I had got my hair done by him at Bebe Hair Salon (the old location) on Decemeber 15^th 2015-​ish? I booked my appointment roughly about 3 months prior since he seemed to be very popular. Right off the bat, Tai and I instantly connected. I liked how he would make small conversations with me during my appointment with him. Since you’re going to have someone do your hair, it’s only right to make sure that you get along with that person.
He is one of the nicest and most talented hair stylists I’ve ever met. Tai was extremely friendly and professional. He was very easy going and I didn’t feel uncomfortable at all for the 3 hours that I was there. He always asked me questions to make sure that I satisfied with my hair of course I didn’t say much because I trusted him already (you should see his instagram photos!)
Overall, I would recommend him to friends and family. I will definitely be going back for haircuts and touch ups.

@TAIKIEUAPRIL05 has moved here; this review is for him.
After going through an absolute hair nightmare (thanks in part to the two talentless hacks at HAIR 2001, and also to another salon which shall not be named because the stylists were actually quite sweet and apologetic), I thought I was a lost cause. Thanks to Tai and his precision, extensive knowledge of color and natural talent, however, I was able to achieve a gorgeous grey with hints of lavender and soft pink. I can’t wait to go back in a few months and try something new! He’s my hair savior.
Tai keeps you involved 100% of the time, walking you through exactly what he’s doing and double-​checking your desired result so he knows exactly how to help you get there. Not to mention, Tai uses OLAPLEX! So you don’t have to worry about your hair falling out in chunks after multiple bleach sessions. Tai truly has a talent for hair color.
FIVE STARS for precision and pretty hair.
Cool bonus: I got hungry halfway through the process, so Tai finished up the foil wrapping part then went next door to get me a sandwich LOL! Awesome customer service.

This review is for Tai! This was my third time getting my hair done by Tai. I actually met Tai in April at Bebe Salon for an impromptu haircut. I wanted to try someone new, hadn’t found my «go to» hair person yet so I thought I had nothing to lose. To my surprise, he was everything and more! From past experiences at salons around Westminster, there’s always something off. Most of the time, because of the low cost, you let your hair grow out, find another salon and move on. BUT with Tai, I was genuinely happy with my haircut!
I could tell from that one experience he was very detailed and passionate about his work. He discussed options and let me adjust and decide exactly what I wanted.
I came back about a month later (May) for color. I asked for more dimension for my flat hair and of course an ashy brown balayage. Again, excellent work from Tai. The color faded beautifully and I didn’t have to see him for 6 – 7 months!
Fast forward, 7 months later, I told him I wanted something more subtle, some grays but not too gray, and most importantly for me, something low maintenance. I LOVED it! I enjoyed my time at the new salon a lot more. He has the space and time to really showcase his skills/​work as opposed to the busy salon. Tai has been very consistent with his work. But, what I really like about Tai is that he is not only talented and passionate but also very humble and hard working. You can find many people all over Unilocal who may have talent but can sometimes lack the professional skills, passion and drive to continually improve. Tai has all these qualities so you should definitely trust your hair with him :)

Tai has done my hair twice and he never fails to disappoint! From now on, he is the only stylist who is allowed to touch my hair. He really does listen to how you want your hair to look like. Also, he also takes his time on your hair. If you want a trim he’ll give you a trim and not cut off 6 inches like other stylists do!
I highly recommend anyone to go to Tai for some bomb ass hair and I myself look forward to more appointments. Book yours asap!
His work is amazing and you can see them on his Instagram– taikieuapril05

I have gone to Tai twice, and loved how my hair came out each time. He did an amazing job on making my hair look better and healthier. Tai was very nice and friendly. He continued to check up on me to make sure that I was OK. I also liked that both times when I got there for my appointment, he was ready for me. I didn’t have to sit and wait for him to finish with his previous client.
I will definitely be going back to Tai soon for a touch up! I would recommend calling in advance for an appointment since he does get booked up quickly.

Tai has worked on my hair a few times now when he was located at Bebe salon. He did such an awesome job at correcting my already blonde hair and over grown roots! He was gentle and kind to me and hair. Love how quick and efficient he is at his job! He doesn’t just sit you under the heater forever and fry your hair. Also love the fact that he uses olapex in his products to keep your as healthy as possible! Will continue to come back to him to get my hair did. Such a great young talent! Thank you, Tai!

Tai deserves all the stars in world!
I came across his portfolio on Instagram, @taikieuapril05 and I have absolutely no regrets. I like how he’s really easy to communicate with before coming into the salon. I wanted to get my hair recolored for a wedding and Tai was able to fit me into his schedule! I came in with an idea of a platinum blonde with a touch of grey and he was able to execute it way better than I had imagined. He is so patient and his work is impressive. He has colored my hair twice and each time he took his time to wrap each strand of my hair in dye and foil. My hair faded to a nice tone after a couple of weeks and I still continue to get compliments. Like strangers would stop me to ask where I got my hair down and of course I refer to Tai! He’s super cool like I feel like we’re friends. So go to Tai to get yo hair did girl.

This is Tai’s new hair salon! (@taitkieuapril05 via instagram) This is the second time I went to get my hair done with him and I’m even happier now than the first!
After dying my hair different shades of browns for the last six years, I trusted Tai to take me blonde :) He not only takes care of your hair, but he consistently wants to ensure that you’re doing okay as well. I had the most amazing experience and I already recommended more than 10 friends to come and get their hair done by Tai. & They did!
The price ranges based on color, length and time. The average is around $ 200 – 300, which is a really good price and worth every penny.
I’m so happy with my hair and I will definitely be back again :)

TAI IS AMAZING! The best. Not only does he do such an amazing job with blending the colors he also cares for his customers :) I’ve gotten my hair done with TAI twice and i can’t ever go back to anyone else! He also gives you tips on how to take care of your hair. You’ll have no regrets when it comes to TAI!

This review is for TAI!
I got my hair done Nov. 29 when Tai was still with Bebe Salon. I wanted to try the grey/​silver hair look and was looking for people that is experienced with it. My friend told me about Tai so I checked out his Instagram and immediately fell in love! His work was beautiful and I knew that I wanted him to do my hair. I texted him and the appointment was scheduled.
Upon arrival, he took me in right away. I showed him several pictures of what I was looking for. and then we started! He took his time on doing my hair, he did not rush so I was very happy with that. He made sure I was comfortable the whole entire time. Also, he was so sweet to buy me boba while I was waiting for the dye to set in. We chatted and he was very easy to talk to. Very sweet guy!
After washing my hair out, he combed out my stubborn hair, and made sure if he was hurting me or not.
He also cut my hair and layered my hair a few inches, the perfect amount. Then he blow dried and curled my hair. I was SO SO SO SO SO IN LOVE WITH MY HAIR!!! It was SO PERFECT! It was exactly what I wanted. He did an ombré look, where he left my roots the same and blended it into a beautiful grey color. The curls were on point as well!!! Also my hair was still soft and did not look or feel dead! which is definitely a BONUS!
The whole process took him 3 hours! and he only charged me $ 180! I was so happy with that price because I knew that if I went anywhere else for this type of color, they would’ve charged me $ 200 – 300! He really took great care of me and gave excellent customer service! So I tipped him well. Of course I will be coming back to Tai for future hair needs.
ANOTHER thing that made him stand out was when I asked him what shampoo/​conditioner I should buy for my hair he actually even offered to go buy it for me and I can just come pick it up from bebe salon! He ended up buying me a really good brand, AG Hair Care Sterling Silver (purple shampoo AND conditioner). I was so pleased with my whole experience.
Everyone loved my hair and was asking me where I went to get it! Hurry up girls, Tai gets booked up fast! You’ll definitely leave SATISFIED!

Tai is amazing at his job! I started going to him after I saw his amazing Instagram pictures. The first time I came in for an appointment I asked for an ash brown/​grey balayage and he delivered! My hair was still healthy after being bleached. The second appointment we decided to go grayer. I always get questions on where I get my hair done and compliments! I am so happy with the results and will continue to go to Tai for my hair needs.

Tai works magic on my hair. I get compliments all the time. Love coming to him and will continue to come back !

This is @taitkieuapril05 ‘s new spot. He offered me water and kept making sure I was ok during the whole session. He shares the space with his friend who does haircuts. I had a good hair experience here. As you can see by my photo. Hopefully after a few weeks the color is still as lovely! The day I came, they just received their credit card machine. Will come back for toner and cut if needed.
