“90 Day UPDATE:

I recently made the drive from Las Vegas to Santa Monica, and let me tell you, it was so worth it! After getting the perfect color I wanted 90 days ago, I knew I had to return for a refresh—and I’m glad I did. The drive may seem long, but when you’re greeted with such high-quality service, chill vibe- it’s all worth it. From the luxurious shampoo and conditioner to the heavenly scalp massage, every moment felt indulgent. The vibrant refresh of my original color? Flawless! If you’re looking for the best in color and care, the trip to Koko at Aube is a no-brainer.

JULY 19- In late May, I decided to transform my blonde balayage into a rich wine red. Multiple stylists in Las Vegas, informed me that to achieve my desired shade, they first needed to apply an auburn color to neutralize the blonde and assess if the final color was achievable. Despite the uncertainty, I took the plunge with one of those stylist and was left with a dark auburn color with peaks of blonde that didn't take.

Eight weeks later, I found myself in Santa Monica, CA, and stumbled upon Aube Salon. On a whim, I approached a stylist named Koko for a last-minute attempt to achieve my dream color. I showed her my inspo photo, and without hesitation or excuses, she assured me she could make it happen. Koko even promised to help recondition my hair.

Skeptical, I waited for the reveal. But when I put my glasses back on and saw the stunning result, I was blown away. My hair looked perfect, almost like I was wearing a flawless wig. The salon, a Japanese style hair establishment, clearly delivered exceptional quality.

I had my daughter with me and she got long layers put in her hair, a refreshing and thorough shampoo, followed by a blow dry.

I'm now a devoted fan and plan to return in three months for a touch-up, regardless of the four-hour drive or hour-long flight. It's worth every mile for such beautiful results.

Stylist: Koko“

“Natsumi is amazing! She helped me go from a long blond to a short brunette. The color looks amazing and the cut is perfect. She is wonderful!“
