Caren did a wonderful job with my tricky hair on the first try! I have long red hair and all of the…read morequirks that that entails, so I'm always a bit nervous when sourcing a new hairstylist. The salon is clean, tidy, and stocked with a variety of good-quality products that Caren neither under- nor over-uses. Caren actually cut my hair dry first (something no one has done before, but something I'll inquire about from now on) and only once she was mostly done washed, did a little tidying, dried, and VOILA: I have a haircut that settled perfectly day-of and, more importantly, has settled perfectly every day since. I'm low-fuss when it comes to my hair (I wash with a little shampoo and ton of conditioner, and maybe use little leave-in coconut oil before air-drying, but that's about it). Caren's cut works perfectly for my normal minimal-maintenance days, and frames my face more nicely on days when I play a bit. Best yet, Caren's cut cost half of what a comparable job in San Fran would cost! If only I could take her back to the Bay with me, I'd have Caren cut my hair forever.

I came here a couple of times about 2 years ago because of the glowing 5 star reviews…read more Unfortunately, my experience wasn't so great. Caren is a lovely person; however, the last time I went there she decided to cut my baby hairs on the side of my face (I'm not white, so I tend to have quite obvious baby hairs) and honestly ever since then they have been a total nightmare to deal with; just 10 times worse. Never went back.

I went in for a wedding hair trial with Kate. I was immediately greeted upon entering and was…read moreseated comfortably soon after. Kate took the time to really listen to what I was trying to achieve, looked at the photo examples I brought, and made adjustments and alterations to my hairstyle several times in an effort to make my wedding hair trial perfect. For $35, to spend over an hour trying to help a bride to be achieve her desired look, exemplified extraordinary attention to detail and a high level of customer service by Kate. It's obvious she cares a lot about the reputation of the business and the way her customers feel when they leave the salon. She answered all of my questions perfectly, and although the hairstyle she created didn't exactly match my Pinterest photo, I'm still very much considering her salons services for my upcoming wedding.

Recently I had a pretty terrible experience having my hair dyed by Chelsea. I asked for white icy…read moreblond hair and was given literal brown hair with yellow streaks in it. I have dark hair so I was already nervous about doing this dye job- I called and spoke to Chelsea twice on the phone in the week leading up to my appointment, and she assured me she could get me to icy blond. On the morning of my appointment I even brought in pictures of the color I wanted and confirmed again that it was possible- and again she said she could do it. Three hours later she told me I was done- when my hair was just a lighter shade of brown with yellow highlights- nowhere CLOSE to the color in the pictures. When I told her it still looked brunette to me, she told me "to get to the color you showed my I would have to cancel my next appointments. . .". My thought was, then DO. If you tell me twice on the phone AND in person that you can get me to a certain color, you don't let me leave with a totally different, streaky color. . .I cried when I got in the car, and ended up getting my hair dyed back to black that very same day. In Vici's credit, I have been going to them for eight years to get my hair cut and have never had a problem. Arlene is especially nice at cutting my hair. But I would never ever recommend anyone has their hair dyed by Chelsea- if she couldn't have gotten my color correct, she should have told me that from the beginning. I did receive a refund from Vici when I went back later after the fiasco. Below is the color I showed her versus me crying in the car with streaky brown hair lol
