Got a little trim and layering done. My first time here and Nunu was amazing. Very communicative and professional with a lovely personality. 100% recommend.

Such an amazing experience! My hair looks so beautiful. Everything was so great from the nice and clean studio’s atmosphere to the very professional care, topped off with the great price. I’m definitely coming back and highly recommended! Thank you Firas

The first thing I would point out is the person who was cutting my hair did not disinfect the chair before making me sit as I saw the chair was being used before me.
The second thing is that person did a lousy job in cutting my hair, took big chunks for cutting without any regards to evenly partition the hair and maintain precision.
I will never come back again.

KromaTik is an excellent hair studio. Firas is a total professional, skilled in women's AND men's hair. Very welcoming atmosphere and for a reasonable price! Highly recommended!

Firas is the only person that I trust with my hair. It took me long enough to finally find the perfect salon. He is very professional and impressive at his job. He never fails to amaze me. I've been coming to him for years. I love this salon! And the prices are so worth it!

Super pleased with the care and professionalism at Kromatik. Love the shampoo recommendation for my coloured hair.

Tldr; Charged about $60 for a terrible 5-10 minute haircut. Save yourself your time and money and go somewhere else!
I came to Kromatik because of the great reviews and as it was a convenient location for me but I left with ruined hair. I was first greeted by the male stylist who led me to my chair. The salon was completely empty. He asked me what I wanted and I told him a trim and yes to layers. Pretty basic stuff. The actual haircut itself only took about 5 or 10 minutes where he grabbed large pieces of hair and started snipping off inches. I was surprised he didn't even section my hair off properly as most other stylists do but I trusted him and waited. As for layering, he never used layering shears but just grabbed random pieces and sizes of hair, twisted and cut it. I've seen this technique for layering before but this never done this recklessly and carelessly.
After the cut, the stylist asked me what I thought. I was surprised he was finished because it looked choppy, uneven, and unfinished. The stylist was offended when I pointed out that the left side of my hair was a couple inches longer than my right and even said "you think you know more about hair than me? " He also blamed that the lighting/sun light was making my hair look more uneven. I was appalled by his reaction and his excuses rather than trying to offer solutions. At this point, I did not want him to touch my hair and ruin in further so I told him it was fine and I am sorry if I offended him in any way. The biggest problem is that there was no empathy from the stylist to the client. Even as I was paying, he was still huffing his chest and saying "you think you know more about hair than me. " I didn't even want to pay for such terrible service but it was just him and I (plus his receptionist) in the salon so I just paid ~$60 and left. Definitely do not recommend.

Always get my makeup and hair done by kromatic, finnaly have time to write a review.
The makeup artist Nihad, she is very patient and professional. I was surprised that she use all high-end makeup product for me. I know Asian girls like me usually like to go to Asian makeup artist.she is not Asian, but she did my makeup pretty, and I like it the most, so I always come back for big event.hahah
And The price is very reasonable compare with the other chinese place that I have visited.
I don't change my hairstyles very often, I just leave to grow out all black.because I don't want damage it too much.but I'm very glad that I did my hair this time with stylist Firas. He did the color that I wanted and also my hair was not damaged at all (that usually happen when you change from dark to light color)
He is usually pretty busy, book ahead is better.
Highly recommended to all the girls

Dropped by here yesterday for the first time, after having bad experiences at two other local barbers/salons. Firas took his time and gave a great cut! No complaints at all. Will be using him again in the future.
FYI, the price may be a bit more compared to other barbers, but it is worth the premium to have confidence in your cut.

I went to Kromatik because of the lovely reviews on here! And I can happily say that Firas and the salon lived up to all of the positive reviews! He took my long, tired, grown out hair and turned it into a very trendy short-ish cut that i can wear my natural curls with or straightened and it looks great both ways.
I also loved that Firas checked in with me during the cut and we worked together to find the best style/length for my face. He also was very patient with me as he was using techniques I'd never seen before so I was curious about the neat stuff he was doing
Will definitely be back when its time for a trim!
