I have been getting my hair done by Jamie for a while and wanted to share with everyone how wonderful she is. I always leave happy with my cut and color.. she really knows how to listen to what the client wants and the results are amazing! Highly recommend this salon!! The owner and staff are very welcoming and talented.

Noreen did my hair over the weekend! I'm super happy with everything. She really takes the time to figure out what you're looking for. We made a plan for my hair and I'm excited to go back! Thanks Noreen!

Stayed at the hotel and came in for a pedicure. Gina was very nice and gave me a great treatment. See review for her as well on her own Yelp account. I liked that it was not a big turn and burn nail salon so not overcome by fumes but also she was very careful with what she was doing. As I sat there I watched several men come in for hair cuts that appeared to be regulars. I watched a lovely bride-to-be getting hair and makeup for photos as well. Chelsea did the makeup and Noreen the hair. The girl was stunning! But I was also impressed with how much follow up they were offering to make sure they were ready for the big day as well. Any changes that might need to be adopted and even asking for maybe an interim follow up to make sure curls will hold.
I was so impressed that I brought my other half downstairs for a quick haircut when he finished his work. He was needing a different style that will take time to grow in some areas but be cut regularly in others. Chelsea did a great job. Hopefully he can keep coming back when out this way on business. Overall very impressed with the professionalism of everyone here and very friendly treatment. Look forward to returning.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jacqueline F.Riverside, CA129438Nov 6, 2014
Came in during our Art Walk visit. The cosmetologist was informative and did a demo on one of my friends.
What left a bad impression: an older woman came by, while we were enjoying hors d'oeuvres and grab the platter! How rude!!! And NO we were not grubbing on it! If you don't want to be part of the Art Walk experience, LOCK YOUR DOORS AND GO HOME!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Gina B.Dana Point, CA1787Feb 16, 2015
I have been going to Noreen the owner for a cut and color for years. My hair is always so shiny, healthy and bouncy when she finishes. I have also recommended her to my friends who get their hair highlighted because all of her blonde clients I see look so natural like a child with natural blonde hair would look. I also recommend her blow outs which she is also known for!
Also, the staff is always so nice and the salon is always clean with a warm feeling about it.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Michelle H.Palm Desert, CA3213Jun 14, 2016
2 1/2 hours for a mani pedi. Too long when family was arriving for my wedding the next day. The clear polish started seriously flaking in 2 days. I would have done a better job myself. 80$ I could have saved and time......

I have been going to International Hair for 25 years. Noreen, the owner, is an expert at color and weaves. Since the spa opened its the only place I go for gel nails and pedicures. The spa uses disposable foot baths which is very sanitary. T.D. is very personable and does an excellent job on the gel nails. He gets very close to the cuticle when applying the gels. They also last three weeks.
They also sell liquid BOTOX! Ask Annine, the facilaist all about it.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - R F.Erbendorf, Germany1147Aug 27, 2015Updated review

Noreen has been cutting my hair for over 20 years, she's amazing and has an eye for the best style for you.
If you are in the Laguna area and need a cut, you should definitely check out International Hair Salon, maybe you will come back for decades too.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Rebecca K.Arlington, VA124Mar 28, 2015
This review is NOT about the quality of the product; I never got that far. It seems from other reviews that they do nice work.
So this is just about the sales technique I was met with - the "let me tell you what's wrong with you so that you then feel compelled to pay me to fix it" technique.
I walked in today with my mother, thinking we would treat ourselves to a mani-pedi. A woman greeted us with a "Hi ladies! What can I do for you today? Did you want to fix those eyebrows?" Since my eyebrows were not even on my radar as something that needed fixing, I stood there and stared awkwardly for a second and then made a lame attempt at a joke - something like "why, do they need fixing?"
(NOTE: the **correct** answer to this question is "No, of course not! They are fine. I will focus on whatever you would like me to focus on." Actually, no. There is no correct answer to that question, since that situation should **never** happen. It was already too late.)
But her response was "yeah, you should give them some shape! So they're not so straight across! And clean them up around here and here. . ." as though I had actually requested a consult.
Sigh. So rude. Such a blatant attempt to make me feel bad about myself so that she can make money. I walked out.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0 - Brenna P.Irvine, CA084Oct 23, 2014
Noreen spoiled me for my wedding! My hair was insanely gorgeous and then she set me up with the amazing Alexander who did my make up. I had no idea I could be so beautiful. The two of them made me shine on the most perfect day of my life. I will never be able to describe how wonderful they are. Thank you so much!!!!
