Good visit! Got me in last minute. Great haircut with espresso bonus. Clean, professional and good conversation. A little on the steep end pricing wise but whatever, it’s Santa Barbara.

This is a great place located off Figueroa kind of near Lilac Bakery. I've been going to them a long time and they've always done a great job. Everyone in the salon has always been very friendly and professional. I very much trust and appreciate the work they do. It's hard to find a good stylist who you like and trust and that does a great job. I would recommend anyone to come to this place. No doubt.

Salim is the best. He has been cutting and coloring my 85 yo mom's hair and mine for over a year and we couldn't be happier. He listens to what we want, makes suggestions when needed and we have never been happier. My mom has extremely fine hair and always has scalp showing. He cut it in a way that noone ever did before and 3 curls with curling iron is all she needs to do at home and it looks like she's got a head of thick hair. The style is fantastic. He also said if there is anything we aren't happy with come back and he'll fix it no charge. There was nothing to fix. For my hair, I have thick, long,frizzy/curly hair and had been trying since for about a year to get a Burgundy red in my dark brown hair. Salim is the 4th person in town I went to to do this and to cut it with more style. I'll never go to anyone else. My hair is finally exactly how I want it and looks better than I'd imagined. Salim came highly recommended and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Nice safe atmosphere. Comfortable wash bowls/chairs. Easy parking. Enter from pkg lot. Entrance is in back.

Loooove Walter Claudio!!! The Salon is incredible and I’ve been loving my hair done by Walter for 30 years

Pixie salon upstairs in the loft the best. Owner Sarah, you will love her.

The best. Solid hair care, great staff, and Covid practices in place.

They said you will get an estimate when they go over your hair before they start and that did not happen. My hair looked fine for the first few days then it slowly started looking very gold. Either the toner (or something else) wore off after a few weeks and the top part of my hair was so gold and the bottom was blonde. I had to go and get it corrected which they had to really fix it. Very frustrating when I paid over $300 to get my hair highlighted here. So disappointed in this place.

Walter is a great person and an icon in SB


Feb 05, 2021

Best haircuts in town. Always a wonderful experience.

From the bottom of my heart, this amazing and leading beauty shop that I always trusted would never be forgotten nor taken for granted. Every time I visited their shop, they were greeting me appropriately and professionally. Also, the beauticians were an expert and well-trained on their chosen career. No doubt that I’m always satisfied and overwhelmed with their services. They were also using some branded and original products that could truly be trusted.

I am new to Santa Barbara and was excited to try this salon because it has great reviews. However, when I showed up for my appointment I was told my stylist no longer worked on that day and I would need to reschedule. The receptionist claimed they had been trying to contact me to let me know. However, I have no record of them calling, leaving a message, or texting to let me know. This is extremely unprofessional and I will not go to this salon.


Feb 05, 2021

The best place in Santa Barbara to get your hair done. I trust anyone there to do my hair.

Beautiful salon and excellent stylists. My go-to!

Excellent experience. We winter here and have always had great service. Ashley Genet has been our "go to", she has always accommodated us.


Feb 05, 2020

Friendly stylists, clean and bright. Great looks. I always come out looking my best.

Hair stylist June Stowe is fantastic!


Feb 05, 2020

I am totally impressed with the fabulous service and all around caring atmosphere. My friends have all commented on how beautiful the new color of my hair is. The process left my hair healthy and shiny. I'm so happy with the whole experience I drive 4 hrs just to have Walter work his majik.♡🕉

I went in with Nikki for the works. I have medium dark brown hair and wanted to go pretty icy blonde. Nikki went above and beyond my expectations and my hair looks fabulous. It took four hours but she was lovely to talk to and very thorough and great at her job! The atmosphere of the salon was super nice and I will definitely come back for touch ups!!


Feb 05, 2020

Just became a customer and have been three times, wish I'd started with them a long time ago. Top notch service, comfortable chairs!, and great stylists.
