Chell’s Studio

I’ve been coming to Chell’s salon since August 2015. Atenea has been working on my hair. She’s the best! Not only did she calmed me down from doing something drastic and possibly damaging my hair more she walked me thru the process and said to take a step at a time. My hair is absolutely gorgeous!

Claudia N. Was marvelous with my Mom in giving her a perm. Mom is very particular and she was happy. Very friendly and she did a great job being patient with her. Thank you Claudia! We’ll be back! I’m glad Unilocal was right and I tried you all out!

My hair needed rescuing! It felt like straw on the ends. My hair hadn’t grown in over 5 months. I’ve never had a problem letting my hair grow before. I let Yara take the lead and do what needed to be done. Went in with my mind set on 2 but knew I needed to trust her. 3 inches gone. The way she did my layers I couldn’t even tell 3 inches were cut off. My hair looked and felt healthier. The color was a perfect match to what I showed her I wanted. She explained what she was going to do before doing it. That made me feel very comfortable. She’s very sweet and friendly too. Cute salon. Well stocked. They really cater to their clients and make you feel comfy & relaxed.

So it’s been well over a month since Jennifer did a Keratin treatment on my hair. It took out the little frizz I had & also straightened my wavy hair. And more importantly, it certainly brought back the shine back to my hair.
Keratin is definitely the way to go vs the Japanese straight perm I use to get. And it is much more desirable than a blowout since it doesn’t contain formaldehyde.
Although it is a very lengthy process, approximately 3 ½ hours for my hair, it is definitely worth it.
Jennifer was awesome and she did an amazing job!

I LOVE Chell’s studio!!! This place is seriously a hidden gem in Hacienda Heights where I’ve been going to for years!!! My stylist is Yara who is also the owner and she is the nicest, sweetest and very caring of each of her clients. The salon is so cute and trendy! There are many talented stylist in the salon so you won’t be disappointed with who you get. Yara is a color specialist and helps me maintain my «true blonde» and takes very special care of my hair as its her own. I’ve sent friends and family to see Yara and I highly recommend anybody else looking for a change for the better!

I go to Claudia for my haircut & love it! This last time I wanted a longer Bob and she was honest on how short it would be but glad she let me know what she can work with instead of just cutting it I always walk out happy!

I love this place sooooo much! I’ve been going to this hair salon for about five years and they always know how to do my hair, making it have more volume and look «fancy». If you have long, fine, straight hair like me, this is place to go to! They take such good care of your hair and are truly professionals! :)

I went in today as a walk-​in. Marco did a really good job
with blowing dry and style my hair. Will definitely go there again!

Best hair stylists in OC! All the artists are friendly and very professional. Everytime I leave I’m happy with my new look. I always go to Yara and she never disappoints! She listens to what you want and then gives you tips based on her knowledge :)

After coming here, I won’t be needing to find any other hair salon. This is the place. As I am an individual with terrifyingly difficult-​to-​manage hair, I can’t be any more satisfied with the treatment I received. In my most recent visit, I got the Keratin straightening treatment. As I also have gotten a hair cut few days ago, my naturally poofy hair became seemingly hopeless. During this treatment, they were able to straighten my hair, and apply necessary products that ultimately revitalized its appearance and quality, making it look healthier and more vibrant.
As I have been a customer of Claudia Nakamoto for about 5 years, I could not put my hair in the hands of any other stylist. She’s always known the type of cut I’m looking for and shared lots of personal and professional advice with me on how to better care and manage my hair. If you’ve got coarse, tangle prone, complicated hair like me or even if you’re just looking for a nice fix, TAKE MY WORD FOR IT and check this place out. PEACE!

Yara is the color Expert!!! I’m naturally a dark brunette but l enjoy being 50 shades of blonde at any given time ;) Yara is an angel sent to me from the salon god’s. I took a chance with her several years ago when my original hair stylist abruptly moved salons without telling me. Since I have dark hair naturally becoming a «true blonde» can be a process; if done incorrectly it could really fry your hair out.
A few years ago I moved out of the area and decided to try my luck with another local hair stylist — Huge Mistake! Initially the other hair stylist kept me blonde but soon after my hair became a brassy orange color and I felt like a carrot top.
Thankfully, Yara has extensive knowledge with color, highlights, lowlights and color correction. My hair is always silky soft, healthy and looks Amazing!

So great! Came here with a groupon, needing a blow out. Since the blow outs are only 24 and my groupon was for 40 $, I was able to add some great conditioning treatments.
My hair looked fab, shiny, healthy and the stylist REALLY took her time blowing my hair out. She even gave me some crazy volume that I’ve never experienced before.
Also, VERY informative — discussing PH volumes of shampoos and leave in sprays that would be good for my hair.
Also talked me out of getting extensions, which is usually unheard of in a salon — most try to upsell to no tomorrow like a used car salesman.
Will definitely be back!

the best place in hacienda hights, not only they have great costumer service, their products and professionalism exceds any hair salon my wife and i ever been.
but dont listen to what i said, check it out yourself…

Hidden GEM in the Heights. I’ve passed this plaza several time when I’m on my way home from shopping at Target, Marshalls, etc. I saw Chell’s but I wasn’t sure what this business was all about. So then I happen to come across a postcard from Chell’s at my work. Hmmm… I’ve been wearing the baseball hat a lot so it’s time to cut the «locks of my hair». So I set my appointment with Yara, the owner of the salon. The design of the salon is hip yet modern. I like how her salon is functionally organized yet you get a cool vibe from being here. I normally go outside of Hacienda Heights to go to a salon like this one. It’s nice that I don’t have to travel far from home because gas and my time are valuable to me. Anyhow, let me break it down why I like Yara!
1) She listens-​I brought pictures, she asked questions and
listened to what I wanted
2) She advised and made suggestions-I’m not the expert here
so it’s nice to hear from a professional what colors we could do
or what length would or wouldn’t work.
3) She massaged and washes my hair really well… relaxing
4) She is personable and listened to all my gabbing. Some hairdressers will leave you at the chair and you’re left all by your lonely self. I understand sometimes she’s going to be busy but she just knows how to make you feel you’re important for your appointment.
5) She knows how style your hair after a haircut. Have you ever gone to a hairdresser and they can cut but they can’t style?
6) Reasonable prices (Time spent and outcome of hair… well worth it!)
Anything negative? It’s great they have a private parking lot but it’s pretty full since they have a Bikram Yoga next door. I guess I could walk 30 more steps to see Yara… she is pretty worth it. Thanks, Yara… I feel pretty, again!

Rude… my wife went to this location on a Friday evening. The door was locked, she knocked and they didn’t even acknowledge her. We have a family of girls who reside within the immediate area. They along with all their girl friends will not be going here. So sad…

I started coming to Chell’s to follow my favorite stylist, MARCO. Marco has been doing my hair (along with my sister’s and her friend’s) for over 5 years now. I have to admit that I have tried other places for my highlights and cuts over that time period but I always went back to Marco because he just does a much better job for a decent price.
I have very difficult hair to work with and Marco has always been so patient and understanding. He really listens to what I want and is able to give me the kind of highlights that best suits my style. I absolutely LOVE the way he does my layers; it really transforms my look. I really don’t know what I’d do without him.
The studio itself is kept very bright and clean. The stations are very spacious and organized. The staff is always super friendly when I walk in and help each other out when it gets busy. There’s usually a nice movie on and free coffee. It’s an overall pleasant experience.

Chell’s Studio has amazing talented hair stylists! I feel amazing every time I walk out of there. Professional, Friendly and Skilled Staff. Thank you Yara for styling/​coloring my hair for Cabo!

A few of my co workers referred me to Chells, and I love it! About 4 – 5 of my co workers love Yara and Marcos! It’s a must, schedule your appointment ASAP u will not regret it!

A few friends referred me to this salon so I decided to try it out. Jackie styled my hair that day and I absolutely loved it! I’ve never left a salon that happy ever. She is absolutely amazing and extremely friendly. and they have amazing prices definitely worth the hour drive! try it out!

I love this Beauty Salon! Affortable prices, great services, lovely environment. The stylists are very professional. I noticed that a lot of Celebrities from Spanish TV go there. Plus they have the best and latest beauty products.
I highly recommend this place. My friends always ask me where do I go to do my hair. I live in LA but is worth the 20 min drive. Now my friends and the friend’s of my friends go there. Great place.
You can get full service from color hair, hair cut, maninure & pedicure, threading, facials, massages and makeup. Wonderful place. Exactly what all women want. I give 2 thumps up!
