About

V.i. Studios is based in Pasadena and says it has worked in beauty and hair for more than 20 years. The salon describes client service as the center of its work, and says its results depend on getting to know each client and caring about the person in the chair. Its services are grouped into chemical perms, color and haircuts.

The team says it trained under respected Japanese hair masters. Bridal styling is a named specialty, covering weddings and other special occasions. The salon describes itself as one of the top 3 beauty salons and as Pasadena's number one hair salon in 2025; these are the salon's own claims.

Bookings are made through the salon's app, which is linked from its homepage. Bleach services require a consultation before they can be booked. Prices can vary with the hair goal, and haircut prices are based on current hair length rather than on sex. A cancellation made less than 24 hours before an appointment incurs a $75 fee. Clients have a 15-minute grace period for late arrivals, and arriving more than 15 minutes late may result in a $25 late fee. Booking means agreeing to these policies.

The book page lists hours of 9 AM to 8 PM on Saturday and Sunday, 9 AM to 3 PM on Friday, and closed on Monday. Reservations and inquiries can be made by phone at (626) 864-0243, or by email at Vistudiossalon@gmail.com.

The salon describes its approach as refined traditional barbering, combining careful work with an eye on current trends.
