The Sharper Look

The first time I got my eyebrows tinted I was extremely amazed. I had no idea there was such a service. I ended up having them done again by Alisa. It is really nice when you don’t have to shade in your brows daily. Saves me so much time for someone that is so on the go. She listens to your request and will do exactly what you need done and do a great job too! Highly recommended.

Her new place is nice and tidy. I had same quality service every time which is great! She even bake muffin for customers, awesome!

This is the new place to be if you want a good haircut. Friendly and you walk out looking sharp, what else can you ask for.
Definitely will be coming back and thanks for the wonderful service.

Receiving a great haircut is just one of the many reasons I visit Alisa. I also look forward to collapsing in her studio with a beverage while enjoying good music and interesting conversation. On top of that, she washes my hair with a hot towel on my face while I fight to stay awake. My only complaint is that my haircut takes about one hour instead of three.

I have been going to Alisa for nearly a year now. We met when she worked at Fashion Island and I followed her to this shop. She is a really excellent at doing brow outline and color tinting that make my eye standout. Alisa is the ultra professional and is great at keeping to the scheduled appointments. I highly recommend Alisa to anyone interested in brow waxing and tinting.

Alisa has been cutting my hair for 7 years! Before Alisa I just walked into any salon for years and let anyone cut my hair. Alisa showed her talent and I learned that just waking info a salon and have just any person to cut your hair isn’t right. For almost two years I missed out on Alisa and struggled to find the right person to cut my hair. When I got back in touch with Alisa again to cut my hair I was excited and still am excited.
Plus I have crazy thick hair. She really knows how to cut my hair. Many others in the passed have gotten nervous cutting my hair because they don’t have the talent Alisa has.

Alisa is a wonderful stylist. As a previous review reported, she is still in business and this should not be labeled as closed.

Always look forward to scheduling my cut with Alisa. She makes me look like I actually care to have some style rather than the black t-​shirt n shorts kind of guy. Her new location is very nice and much more quaint. You will feel much less awkward talking about funny (maybe inappropriate with children next to you) conversations.
Just make sure to not schedule your appointment after 5:30pm on weekdays and 1:00pm on weekends, so I can get my haircut, OK? Those times are reserved for me. Thanks.

The best. Listens, takes her time and has a great eye for what would look best. Rumor has it, she left an earlier job because the manager thought she took too much time! Attention to detail, super friendly– any guy looking for a non cookie cutter supercuts special needs to get here. And, affordable– you’d pay twice as much for this much care at most places

Alisa has really impressed me and my friend Lincoln, who happened to be visiting from Beijing.
In fact she is so good we’ve decided to export her overseas to China, so you poor chaps can kiss her and her yummy cookies good-​bye. (Haha jk)
5 stars — for attention to detail, superb skills and a sexy voice for keeping a warm conversation!

I am so happy that I found Alisa! To be honest, this is the best brow tint I’ve ever had! Alisa knows how to match the color with my hair and create the most natural looking shape and tint for me. Her pricing is very reasonable too.

I’m a 100% satisfied customer! I’m soooo happy with how Alisa shaped my brows. I really like the way she followed my natural arch and made it look much much better. I wouldn’t be able to do that myself. I also got the brow tinting and she walked me through each step of the process which I appreciated… And the best part is I can wake up and skip filling in my brows which I know will save me a ton of time!!! Thx Alisa! You’re the best! Will be back soon.

Got my eyebrows tinted for the very first time and the result was great! Alisa understood that I don’t wear makeup on a daily basis and filled out my eyebrows and made them darker with the right amount of color and they look natural. She is meticulous and dedicated about her work

Alisa is an excellent hair stylist. I was lucky to get to know her when I first moved to this area about a year ago, and I keep coming back to her: her style is great and she is very consistent.
The atmosphere at the new Sola location is nice and she makes you feel like you are in for a spa retreat; warm towels for the face, neck shave, etc.

If you want an artist in charge of your hair, this is the one. My two sons and I have never come close to the quality work and helpful consulting Alisa can provide. The new Sola Salons concept is fitting. Glad to she she made this move. Pay her a visit. You owe it to yourself.

I am a guy that has been going to supercuts type places for years. My wife «encouraged» me to try something more upscale. I started going to Roosters in Irvine a few years back. The first girl was nothing special, but the second time I got Alisa. WOW. Not only did I look great when I left, the cut lasted 6 weeks. I get up, shower, comb my hair, thats it, and it looks great all day. Others have noted she has opened a new shop, see her for an appointment and a great haircut.

Alisa is one heck of a barber. She cuts my hair exactly how i want it and her attention to detail is second to none.
Haircut: Excellent
Customer Service: Excellent
Availability: Excellent.

Alisa has been cutting my hair for a few months now and she is by far the most consistent and passionate barber I’ve gone to for quite some time. I always look forward to my haircuts since its always a pleasant experience and I always leave feeling way more relaxed. I’ve also never had such great comments about my hair until I started going to her, even though I’ve been going to some other top rated haircutters/​barbers in the area for years. She’s great all around — fantastic conversationalist, meticulous with cutting hair, and more than apt at hairstyle recommendations.
Make sure to check out Alisa’s new salon location at Sola Salons — it’s has a quiet, relaxing atmosphere with curated products she recommends for her clients and its located next to the CVS drivethru over by the 24 Hour Fitness. Since she joined this new location, you can now setup appointments via text — a godsend for people with demanding schedules. She also provides a few other services, such as eyebrows, so be sure to ask her what else she can do for you since I had no idea. I was wasting my time going somewhere else for eyebrow services and am really pleased now that I can get it all done in one place.
I’ve also been to a few barbershops with a very strong… culture, where the atmosphere is a bit contrived and annoying to deal with when you’ve had a long day. Alisa’s salon is by no means pretentious — it’s just a nice place to get your hair cut. Combine that with the fact that she’s well spoken, educated, and cultured, and you have a very unique combination of character traits that evokes a high-​end, but not judgmental, vibe. She also randomly bakes in small batches and you never know when a visit to her will contain cookies, toffees or other goodies.
If you’re finding yourself in need of a new barber in the Irvine area, you definitely have to pay Alisa a visit. I’ve spent quite a few years trying places out and definitely feel like Alisa provides the best cuts (consistent and clean), ambiance and overall experience.

THEE BEST! I have recently moved from Bakersfield CA, to Newport and I was in desperate need of someone to give my brows a new look. Alisa over the past couple months has changed the shape of my brows and it they compliment my face much better than before.
I have had trouble finding the right person to shape my brows, they were not the right shape before I started seeing Alisa, and now they look completely different! Especially now, we all know the importance of eyebrows and how hard it is to find the right person… trust me, I know! So thankful I found Alisa.
Also, besides being a talented esthetician, Alisa is completely sweet and so understanding with booking appointments and getting you in with your time schedule! She is a perfectionist and takes her time with her work. I never leave Unilocal reviews, so trust me when I say she is the best.

Alisa hooked up my 14 yr old son, great fast service and did not seemed rushed, my son just looked more confident leaving after his cut. Thanks Alisa!
