Why clients stay
You are not starting over every visit
Clients here have been in the same chairs for years, so nobody has to re-explain their hair. Realities Phase II is a small Altadena team, led by a Master Stylist with 35 years behind the chair, that remembers what worked last time and tells you honestly what will work next.
The results do the talking. Clients come from every corner of the community, in medicine, entertainment, education, homemaking, the military, and athletics. Many have been with the salon for years, and they keep sending their friends.
The work
See the before and afters
Real results on real clients, across every texture and style. The before-and-after gallery does the selling.
Can’t come in?
Then we come to you
The salon offers mobile services across the Altadena area, so a great style meets you at home, on set, on base, or wherever the day takes you. Ideal for busy schedules, events, and clients who can’t easily travel.
