Alyssa is ahhh-may-zing!!! She knows her stuff! Speaking to me on the phone at length before our appointment is going above and beyond for a client and l appreciated this. She is personable, professional and TALENTED! Truth be told I have very long hair and am very picky. So I say this with confidence she did not miss a single strand. Her attention to detail is what you want with a Brazilian! I highly recommend her to anyone looking to do any type of hair smoothing! I have already booked my next appointment! Thanks Alyssa, you're the best! read more

Alyssa is an amazing hair stylist and specializes in straightening treatments. She does such a great job with my Brazilian blowout. If you're looking for a straightening treatment, she's your gal! read more

I really wanted to explore the possibility of Alyssa becoming my hairdresser but after one interaction I must decline. She had very little patience for my questions and couldn't even mention that , because my hair is so processed, this treatment is not advised. I sent her several photos of my hair. She basically said here's my appointment calendar link, and then left the texting conversation. Without answering my last question. If you have color processed hair, FYI, neither Brazilian nor keratin treatments nor Japanese hair straightening are advised. It's rare to find a hair colorist who really takes the time to discuss a prospective client's concerns. read more

Alyssa Baxter Keratin Studios - Hair Stylists Near Me

Very knowledgeable in her products and does the process quickly and efficiently She is very personable, Loved the results!

I first took my daughter to Alyssa about 2 weeks ago for a smoothing treatment. My daughter has very curly hair and Alyssa was very knowledgeable and explained everything about the different treatments she uses, and we decided to go with a keratin treatment. After my daughter washed her hair at home two days later, we realized that the treatment wasn't the right one for her hair, it didn't loosen her curls and it looked very dry. I texted Alyssa , and she told me right away that she wanted to try the Brazilian blowout instead for FREE, all she wanted was my daughter to be happy! So a week later we went back , and her hair is now gorgeous! Looser curls and no frizziness, and my daughter couldn't be happier! Thank you Alyssa for being so sweet and caring and for being so professional . I will recommend you over and over again! read more

Despite having wavy, frizzy hair I had never done a keratin treatment. I heard horror stories about how done incorrectly can damage my hair. Alyssa was so kind to explain which one she thought would be best for my hair and lifestyle. I was still nervous until I washed it (have to leave it in my hair for a couple of days). I absolutely loved it. She did such a great job! I highly recommend Alyssa for keratin needs. She is awesome! read more

Alyssa Baxter Keratin Studios - I love my hair! - Hair Stylists Near Me

I had a Brazilian Blow out and trim today by Alyssa. Everything was perfect. Alyssa was very professional, sweet, completed the treatment in a timely manner and the result was outstanding. I posted her info on our women's mountain bike club page for SD residents and gave her card to my girlfriend in SD to go to. Price for everything including product was incredible. Too bad I'm leaving SD Sunday because this would be my new stylist. read more

This is my first review ever! I just had to join Yelp so I could share my amazing experience with Alyssa Baxter at her salon! I have incredibly thick, frizzy hair and after leaving Alyssa ' s chair it has been healthy, smooth, glossy and maintenance - free for almost 3 months now. The big test was taking my new Brazilian - blowout 'do to Kauai just a week after she gave me the treatment. Humid weather is my enemy, but not anymore. As for her salon, it is very welcoming and I would recommend her to anyone looking for the perfect Brazilian blowout. I haven't had a trim or color done by her yet, but I'm certain I'll be adding on to this when I do!! read more

4 months ago, April 2012, Alyssa and her assistant, gave me a brazilian blowout. They totally fried my hair! Just now my hair is finally hair and not "straw". (I believe their flat iron was too hot during this process!) My regular hair stylist, a different person, who does not do brazilian blowouts, had recommended Alyssa. I called my hairstylist a few days later and she had to cut several inches off and had to deep condition my hair. She felt terrible & embarrassed , but she is familiar with my hair and saw how damaged my hair was. The deep conditioning and trimming has been continual for the past 4 months and just now is my hair starting to feel & look like "real hair". (fyi- I have had a brazilian blowouts elsewhere 3 times prior over the past year & half and had absolutely no problems- as a matter of fact , the brazilian blowout treatments at the other salon made my hair healthier & smoother.) I would not recommend this salon to anyone. read more

Everything she told me was true and I highly recommend her! :) read more

Book your appointment right away because Alyssa Baxter has just opened her beautiful, new salon in Solana Beach! After a short break, I was so excited to hear Alyssa is back working her hair magic again, that I had to have an appointment right away. I first went to her for a Brazilian Blowout more than five years ago, and today I would follow her anywhere. With each visit, Alyssa always produces amazing results whether straightening, styling or cutting my coarse, wavy hair. I highly recommend Alyssa for any and all hair services, and you will be transformed! read more

Alyssa is amazing for Brazilian Blowouts!! She takes so much time to ensure that every strand gets covered evenly with product and that every strand gets straight. I have really curly, coarse hair and lots of curly baby hairs around my face. I am so particular about them but she got every single one! Its been a month since my appointment and my Brazilian still looks brand new! (using the Brazilian Blowout brand products help a lot too) I get compliments every day about my hair and it takes me less than 10 minutes to do my hair in the morning. This has been the best Brazilian Blowout so far AND the least expensive!! I will see her every time from now on. read more

I highly recommend Alyssa at Studio Salon #3 and will definitely be coming back again to get more treatments. read more

I've been going to Alyssa for almost two years. She has always taken excellent care of me and my hair. In fact, I moved to Orange county over a year ago and still drive down to San Diego to see her almost monthly.

Her rates are incredible and she often is able to accommodate my last minute appointment requests.
