The people here are all super nice, but I have to be honest, it's a bit cheez-tastic. Being a fellow Asian, I'm always searching for the right balance when I go to Asian salons -- knowledge of how to...

For years I've been loyal to my stylist & paid the extreme price that came along with the Walnut Creek salon. Then my husband insisted I try a cut with Long. Long did an AWESOME job on my hair. I...
