"David, You are a gem, "...a brilliant, innovative, creative, skilled, stylist".
I've done the rounds of stylists from Beverly Hills to Newport Beach,
and have yet to meet someone like you. The fact that you are so
'technically skilled', yet 'innovative and creative' whilst still being
such a nice easygoing even-tempered guy...is just short of AMAZING!
I
love the short (yet it doesn't look short) haircut. It is so easy to
work with. I am able to style it to look like you did it in the salon.
up to now, other stylists have told me that I "must use product" to get
the look I wanted....contrary to that, you cut my hair, and I'm getting
it to do what I want WITHOUT product. You truly are a 'technician', but
have a wonderful creative eye. Thank you David, for your patience..your
wonderful skilled creativity...and easygoing style. I love my hair,
and look forward to seeing you next time.

David's favorite after haircut response, from Jenny Webster...
..."My sister is gonna kill me!"
"I Love you, Love you, Love you!
My hair is FABULOUS! You're a truly an extraordinary hair stylist. " Lisa Ortiz. San Diego, CA
"David, Thank you so much for creating such a masterpiece! I am so happy I found you.
As
a model, I needed a haircut that is not only manageable, but that can
be styled in many creative and different ways... and you did such a
wonderful job with it. I get so many compliments from different people.
The
haircut you gave me is so good it even looks great without styling it.
I don't need to blowdry it anymore, it dries naturally into perfect
shape. No hairdresser has ever accomplished that before (and I always
asked). You really know how to get the best out of my hair! Most of
all, you were very professional and very fun.
You have a lifetime friend and customer now :)
Thank you for everything! See ya in a few months! :)

This is long, but bear with it, you'll be happy you did...
About
three years ago I decided I wanted to try and cut my hair short again.
Over the years I have had many bad experiences with this because I
wanted something really easy to do (I am retarded when it comes to
styling) and I work out a lot so I have to wash it a lot. Every time I
would decide to cut it, no matter how good the stylist was supposed to
be, I was always extremely disappointed because if they got it short
enough for me to handle, it ended up looking rather unfeminine. So,
every time, I’d give up and grow my hair out long again, just so I
could pull it back. Stylists always told me that I had some curl in the
back and the rest was straight. I was so frustrated because I have a
LOT of hair and I just knew if I could find someone who was truly an
artist he/she could cut all that hair into something cute. I began
asking everyone I saw with what I considered good cuts, but one day
when I was shopping a Whole Foods; my cashier had an adorable
short-short cut that did not look butch. I asked who cut her hair and
she couldn’t remember, but just knew he ran a salon in Long Beach
called Koru. I dashed home and found it on the Net and immediately made
an appointment with the owner, David Ingham. The comments on the
website truly gave me hope that maybe I had finally found someone who
was talented enough to cut my hair. I was ecstatic!
What can I
say except TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS! My cut is so adorable and is so “me”
that I want to shout it from mountain tops. I have never looked better
and I actually can style it myself in 3-5 minutes.
By the way, my hair is extremely curly all over and David somehow found this when no one in thirty years ever has.
He
truly is an artist and I feel as though I found the Holy Grail! If you
have continually been disappointed and think no one can do your hair,
THIS IS THE MAN!!!! He is a genius and I truly believe his talent knows
no bounds. Believe me; you have to experience someone this talented to
truly realize they do exist. Thank you David for making my year and
life! You just better NEVER retire!
Yours sincerely, Gracie La Mer Irvine, CA
"David Ingham is a mastermind. I could use
all the best adjectives to describe my experience with David: relaxing,
fun, professional. But what's so amazing about David is his talented
eye for his creations... You can tell him exactly what you want to be
replicated or you can be more adventurous (like me!) and tell him to do
whatever to your hair. He took the hairstyle that I've had all my life
and gave me a really short haircut that exudes confidence and style. I
used to be really afraid of short haircuts as I have always felt that I
have an oversized chin but he knows how to highlight your good features
and downsize the others!"

"I've never had so may compliments on my hair - in all my years (o.k., decades) of cuts, colors, styles - yours is the best for my hair, every day is Christmas!"
Bobbie Bent "Hi David,
I visited you for the first time last Thursday (with the "henna
head"), and want to thank you for the terrific hair cut. I'm having
so much fun with it and getting lots of compliments too. You have a
real "be with" quality about you that helped make this salon
experience so pleasant for me. Even though I was quietly freaking
out, I also sensed that I could trust your artistic aesthetic and
expertise. What a relief! That doesn't happen much, at least in my
life. So, I'm grateful to my friend, Mary Davis, for encouraging me
to visit your salon. And I look forward to seeing you again for the
next hair cut!
Thanks again and have a great spring!
Warmly,
Cali Rose"
"Who needs the West Side?
I used to drive to L.A.'s West Side, thinking it was the best place in
SoCal to get a great haircut. But nowhere have I received a better cut
and style than from David Ingham. David is
truly gifted -- one of the few stylists I've met who can instantly look
at you, assess your hair and in 20 minutes, give you the absolute best
cut you ever had -- one that suits YOU and your hair perfectly. David
is also a great guy. His place is laid back, his people are gracious
and kind, and he serves champagne. Need I say more?" - Chris C. Call 562.230.3122 to book your visit... "Mr. Ingham, I
just want to let you know, that at work this morning, the first four
people I saw told me how great my new style looked. I hope that makes
your day?." Christy Hirsch., Long Beach, CA
"David is a true artist!
I've always had "problem" hair that left me at my wits end.
I did a search for salons on Google and stylist David Ingham came up more than anyone else, so I gave it a try.
I love what he did with my hair. It's never looked this great before and I really thought that it never could.
He's thoughtful, direct and a real master with hair. My "problem" hair is now my best asset thanks to David's artistry.
Many thanks,
Steph

Call 562.230.3122 to book your visit... "The whole experience TOPS the salon scene! David
has been my hairstylist (and my mom's, and sister's--who
travels 45 minutes to see them) for well over a year, now. He has been
CONSISTENTLY precise with hair coloring--get's my highlights/weaves
right EVERY TIME! He has a fantastic eye for what looks good on a
person and patiently deals with questions and indecisions--I'm known to
change my mind at the last minute! he gives GREAT advice because of his
knowledge and skills. I knew he would be my long term stylist when he
called back after a few days of my first color treatment to see how
I liked it.
The overall environment is
inviting, relaxing and full of good energy. One can feel the love and pride
of family ownership in this place!...a model for all salons! And I've NEVER
felt That I've been so satisfied by a salon to go out of my way for
one!
Experience it for yourself!" "David,
Thank you for the amazing cut and color you gave me. I've had lots of
hairstyles, but this is the first time I've ever gotten so many
compliments." Jenny Han,
Torrance, CA
"Just
went there referred by a co-worker. I was so pleased with their
service, my hair has never
looked so good at the hands and creativity of David. Everyone was super
cool and helpful, definitely the best place in Long Beach and I've been
to most of them." Julie T.
"I
was a little concerned that it might be too froo froo when I made my
appointment, but when I got there they were super friendly and
accomodating. To
make a long story short, I loved everything about my visit there, my
hairstyle and color have received rave reviews from my family, friends
and total strangers! David, thanks a million! You have a client for life." Jean H.
"I had a great time.
I went because of the reviews here and I was more than pleased. Not
only did I come away looking fantastic, the whole experience was so
much more than just a salon visit, imagine having a stimulating
conversation with you hair stylist that covers everything from fashion,
food and wines to philosophy and physics?! And thanks for the book
recommendations, David. Koru is so beyond your average salon, it's best
salon spa, I'm sending all my friends." Shellie L., Seal Beach, CA
"David
Ingham gave me the best haircut I've ever had. I drive all the way from
another county (about 65 miles) to go to his salon. What makes going to
David's so great, besides the great haircut, is that he is such a nice
guy." Alice D., Hemet, CA

what you would expect, More than you would - friendly, unintimidating,
relaxed, one of the best spa salons in the USA, perhaps, the world...
and I've been to the best." Gabriella Vittadini
"David
Ingham is the most amazing hair stylist! He gave me the hair color that
I've always wanted, but have never gotten elsewhere, he could see that
the texture of my hair was different than I had ever thought (which was
straight) but it's actually curly...and with his astounding cutting
techniques revealed a gorgeous mass of curls in less than 15 minutes.
You have to see him, he's the kindest, funniest and most passionate
hair artist, period. I drive 27 miles to see him" Valentina Gabrielle-Connors, Laguna Beach, CA
"See David, forget Beverly Hills From Paris I moved just recently. I did not know what I would do for my
hairs here so I searched on internet. I found David. he is kind and knows so much of coiffures.
David knew how to styling my very horrible hairs, so much that is
it, no longer horrible, but now very beautiful and I am very much
pleased every day.
I am happy with all the experience, David is now my hero of hair and I refer all women to him everyday!"
Thanks to all of my devoted clients who took the time to express these kind thoughts!
