J-Kim Hair Design

Karina Kim is truly exceptional! I’ve had my hair done by many stylists over the years, but no one compares to Karina. She takes the time to understand exactly what you want and brings it to life even better than you imagined. Her technique, attention to detail, and creativity are on another level. My hair has never looked this healthy, stylish, and effortless. On top of her talent, Karina is warm, professional, and genuinely cares about her clients’ happiness. Every visit feels comfortable, relaxing, and so worth it. If you’re looking for a stylist who consistently delivers perfection, Karina Kim is the one. Highly, highly recommended!

Karina Lee is absolutely amazing! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 I’ve never felt so heard and taken care of by a hair designer before. She really listened to what I wanted, explained what would work best for my hair, and the result was even better than I imagined. The cut and styling were super flattering, and she paid attention to every little detail. On top of that, she’s warm, professional, and makes you feel completely comfortable the whole time. I highly recommend Karina to anyone looking for a stylist they can truly trust! 💇🏻‍♀️✨

I got a volume magic straightening and C-curl perm from Karina on September 30. Originally, I only planned to do the volume magic straightening, but during the process, she suggested adding a C-curl perm at the bottom, saying it would look nice—so I agreed. I clearly told her that I just wanted a C-curl with overall volume. However, the result was a disaster. There was absolutely no sign of "volume Straightening." Even after more than a week, my hair is still flat and stuck to my head on top, and the bottom looks like an S-curl from a regular perm. Right after the treatment, when I was shocked by the result, she even tried to brush through the curls as if to loosen or hide them. Everyone who’s seen my hair says the same thing—that the top is completely flat while the bottom looks puffy like a mushroom. It’s really upsetting, and every time I look in the mirror, I feel frustrated and regretful! When I called to complain, they said they could redo it and mentioned that she has "good skills," but isn’t that for the customers to judge, not her? Now that I’ve talked to others who’ve gone to her, I realize their experiences weren’t good either. She gave my layered hair full S-curls all over the bottom, so I can’t even wear it down anymore. Going here is a waste of both money and time! I would absolutely not recommend her!

I drove 4 hours to get my hair done from Karina Lee. I hope I live close to the shop. It was totally worth to drive 4 hours, total of 8 hours. Karina is amazing!

I visited J-Kim for a last-minute hairstyle for a photoshoot. They were extremely accommodating and fit me in at the last minute. Right away, I was impressed by the way the stylists and assistant worked together seamlessly to move things along quickly, but without cutting corners. My stylist did an amazing job, taking great care with my damaged, bleached hair but still working efficiently to get me out of there on time. The style turned out better than I ever expected -- In fact, I think it's the best my hair has ever been styled! On top of that, it held all day, even through my very windy outdoor photoshoot, and dinner afterward! As a side-note, don't be afraid to go here if you aren't Korean --- these stylists are very skilled and they can handle it! Thank you J-Kim!

I knew it was a Korean-owned salon since I've seen it multiple times while I drive by, I just didn't know the customers were also majority Korean haha so it was a bit awkward when I (a non-Korean person) walked in BUT everyone was super nice. The hairstylist (Christine? I think) gave me a some suggestions, was very nice, and skillful. Overall a great experience and a good price, will be coming back even though I'm not Korean!!

ok, of all my 20 years in this neighborhood, I've never came across a young lady who can handle trendy haircuts. It really is a breath of fresh hair when someone came from recent studies, background and with some updated knowledge of current styles, cutting techniques, etc. Please ask for Jisun! She gave me a new look and looks like I can rely on her to style my porcupine style hair. If you want a more modern/trendy haircuts for cheap but can't find a reliable stylist, she can help you out! 15/10 service as well. Hope you can find an appointment with her because she is already quite booked from word of mouth around the neighborhood. Thanks again and I will try my best to find this person wherever she goes.
