Reviews

After warning about my hair being thick and difficult and needing someone with experience, Angela was recommended. She ruined my hair by using the texturizing scissors at the scalp, like this is a magic technique to take out weight. When I ran my fingers through my hair it felt like my head was shaved! Long story short, two months later I'm dealing with the aftermath! The extremely short hairs are growing and I look like a clown because the growing hair pushes up all the longer hair to the air! To the senior stylist that tried to comfort me that day, saying that it's gonna get better in a week or two: no it didn't, it just got worse and worse!

Loved my haircut by Roy. He was very detailed and made sure to check in throughout the cut. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Tony was wonderful. I went in wanting a new look and that’s what I got. I really love my new look. I was scheduled for a partial highlight and cut. However, he gave me more than that. He is quite talented. I literally felt like a model when I left the salon. Thank you Tony for going far beyond the call of duty. A++

Stevie is the best colorist in the bay! She’s the only one I trust with my hair and never does it wrong! She’s a master in her craft and I enjoy being her client! The Salon is big and the staff are professional! I always look good feel good when I leave the salon!

I’ve been going to Paige for over a year, and she is consistently amazing! She’s always cheerful, positive, and professional, which makes every visit such a pleasant experience. Her skill and attention to detail are top-notch, and I always leave feeling confident and happy with my eyebrows. Highly recommend her services!

Great facial hair cleansing

Guy was amazing!! Listened to what I wanted in the style, communicated to me what was achievable and asked me what I wanted overall from the haircut experience. Started off with a lovely shampoo with a stress-relieving head massage. Guy took his time to measure and trim my hair. He also took his time styling my hair. Overall wonderful experience, would highly recommend!

I enjoy every second at this salon - my dynamic duo hair team, Amy and Malia - the dream team that creates the most magical hair. Amy does fantastic cuts and extensions. She knows her craft extensively. Malia, as the artist she is, an avid perfectionist always manifests something so incredibly beautiful every visit. I feel at home at this salon, everyone is SO welcoming, the salon itself is beautiful. (Shout out to Tino, the kindest person ever) This salon always delivers and I’m so lucky to know such talented hair folks. :-)

I got a blonde root touch up and full highlight with Tanya today. She really took her time and listened to what I wanted and was very careful and skilled in her application. I’d recommend her to anyone 💕

Jay was great! Took my hot mess of hair and moved me in a new direction. It was a great experience, highly recommend Jay!

Pricing could be more transparent (additional charges for blow dries etc) prior to rendering services but customer service is fantastic and resolution was immediate.

1st time meeting Faina. She was excellent and a very nice person. My pedicure experience was perfect.


Jan 22, 2025

I got a great haircut and Evan was very personable and knowledgeable. I will recommend him and the salon to others.

Mod is always amazing and accommodating no matter the circumstances. Truly an artist

Sebastien is a master stylist whose precision in hair cutting is unmatched. He styles and cuts your hair with your hair’s texture, your face, and overall sense of style in mind. He is amazing!

There is no better hair colorist in San Francisco than Stevi Her obsession is with what is right for the individual client -- the look, the health of the hair and what is most flattering to the individual. She has exceptional technical skills, so she can make a head of hair sparkle with light, or look entirely natural, if nature were able to produce warmth, light and a subtle color palate. In the two decades I've gone to her, she has continued to polish her skill set by enrolling in very selective professional programs, teaching, and, of course, making her clients look phenomenal. She was trained by a legendary colorist , and she is rapidly becoming a legend herself.

They provided a high level of skill and service.
