    I've been going to Jonathan for over 10 years now and I will follow him wherever he goes! He always knows how to realistically achieve my visions for my hair and never disappoints. 10/10 for the vibes and my hair goals :) I always look forward to getting my hair done! I have sooo many photos from the years but here are some faves!

    Jonathan did an amazing job with my hair! He listens to what I'm trying to achieve and mixes up the perfect color. From the hair color to trimming and styling I would 10/10 recommend him! The salon is so welcoming and both Jonathan and Vanessa are so kind, I am very satisfied with the quality of service

    Vanessa has been my hairstylist since 2019. She is very knowledgable, experienced, professional and would give wonderful hair advice to all her clients. There is no one I trust my hair than her. She is very patient and bubbly. Great listener and cracks everyone up! I tell her what I want and I let her do her magic touch Pic below does not justify how beautiful my balayage was done. I got a lot of compliments already. I love the place, clean, plenty of parking and most of all good ambiance.

    Jonathan is a miracle worker!!! Hands down the best hair styling I have ever experienced. He was able to hear my vision and make it a reality. Seriously grateful for how confident my new hair makes me feel! Thanks Jonathan!!

    Partial lighting and trim

    I am one busy mama and I finally got some time to pamper myself. I haven't done my hair in years so I was a bit nervous but Jonathan made my experience sooooo amazing. His studio is super clean, vibrant and relaxing. I really enjoyed my time there and he did complete magic to my hair. I am in love with it and receiving so many complements already. Would definitely recommend Jonathan to everyone.

    uneven separation/ bleach on the black side which was very noticeable when it slightly grew out

    He was nice but it was $300+ to bleach half my head with one round of lvl 20 developer and some toner... and there was bleach on the wrong side of my hair so when it grew out more it looked really obvious and messy. My hair has been dyed black before so i understood it wouldn't be able to go as light as I wanted, but i ended up bleaching my hair more at home and it looked just how I wanted it, for under $40 :/ I wouldve understood the price more if there was a bit more effort put in but my hair wasn't even separated properly and the line was not straight.

    Jonathans hands work MAGIC. All my life I always resorted to dark hair and I took the leap of faith and decided this mama needed to change things up and in just two visits we were able to bring me to the blonde side! From start to finish, Jonathan ensures that you are comfortable and relaxed throughout the entire process and his work speaks for itself! My forever hair stylist! Always excited for my visits and coming out looking and feeling like a million bucks!

    Absolutely amazing! I have been coming to Vanessa for close to 8 years now and I won't go to anyone else. Vanessa is extremely knowledgeable and my hair has always looked incredible! She is very realistic about expectations but yet is always able to go above and beyond. The salon is very cozy and quiet but with the best ambiance! Plenty of parking is a HUGE plus (as well as a tasty boba place next door). I definitely recommend Aura!

    I honestly never thought purple would be possible on my hair. I even walked into my appointment…read moreready to switch to blonde if that ended up being the only option (all of her work looked amazing). But My completely proved me wrong in the best way. She delivered the exact purple I always dreamed of and she did it in one session while keeping my hair healthy. I am still shocked every time I look in the mirror. I booked almost two months ahead because I knew she was in demand and it was absolutely worth the wait. My explained everything, made sure my hair stayed strong throughout the entire process, and I was out of the chair before I knew it. On top of being incredibly skilled, she is hilarious and so easy to talk to - time flew by. The whole appointment felt fun and comfortable from start to finish. All the girls in the salon were so easy to talk to and made for such a comfortable environment. My is amazing and the quality of her work speaks for itself. I am obsessed with my hair and My has definitely gained a loyal client (already booked my next appointment)!

    Please save your hard earned money. Deborah thinks more highly of herself than anyone else. I went…read moreto her thinking I was going to the best. Showed her what I wanted...dark roots and balayage. After advising if what she could do (with a whole bunch of animated behavior bragging about her abilities), I walked out after 10hrs (!!) with half done hair. Just bleached, no color/toner. Meanwhile, I had a super important meeting 3 days later that I had to be ready to present at. I looked like a frizzled mess!!! She burnt my hair to a crisp. I begged her for an appt before my meeting, even though she was supposed to finished everything day 1, and she kept me for an additional 7 hours. When I say my hair was burnt, I'm not exaggerating. It's taken over a year to grow my hair out. I never even got what I wanted. She gave my uneven blonde highlights...not the dark roots and balayage that I'd requested. And yes, I took a whole bunch of pictures in. All in, I paid $2K CASH...bc she refuses to take anything else so I assume she doesn't pay taxes. Plus I paid over $500 in treatment products to help heal my hair since. I was embarrassed to leave the house. All I heard from her own mouth was how great she was. I think she's great at extensions but definitely not bleaching dark hair. I had healthy hair going in, she has messed it up so much that my hair is STILL breaking and it's been over a year. Please avoid at all costs. Go to a proper studio. Funny thing is not only does she only take cash, but she INCLUDES her own MANDATORY 20% tip...isn't a tip based on services rendered?? You've been warned.

    Deborah did an amazing job getting the brassiness out of my hair and got it blonder than anyone has…read moreever been able to! I had about 5 appointments with a high end colorist in SF that never got it anywhere close to what I wanted! Everyone told me it wasn't possible but Deborah did it on the first appointment. I've been growing out my natural gray but I still have a lot of brown so I'm mostly trying to go for a cool toned bright blonde/white so it blends more with my roots as they grow out so I can go longer between appointments. I don't want my hair to look like a natural gray, I still want it to have a pop and feel current. Deborah was honest about what would work in our video consultation, as well as with pricing upfront. She also told me how to take care of it moving forward and what is need to do at home to maintain the cool tone. It look a long time (about 7-8 hours) but she is extremely precise and detailed at her work and it clearly shows. Thank you, Deborah!

    I'm so happy I found Nancy on Yelp! For the past few years I've been going around to different…read morestylists and haven't found one that I love. Everytime I go to different salons from looking at pictures online, they have their assistants do most of the work while they oversee the assistants. I think this sucks because i'm paying for service from the professional and not their assistants! I messaged Nancy on instagram and she was very prompt with her response and helped fix and achieve the hair color that I wanted. Nancy is really welcoming and super nice. She does everything by herself so you don't have to worry about an assistant doing the entire process. Highly Recommend if you're looking for a good hair stylist!

Always puts on the best movies while you wait. The experience is definitely more one on one. I asked for a tone and a hair cut. Got me some new curtain bangs and I just let her do her thing and told her to "surprise me" Well... I'm surprised and extremely happy with the results. I came in there with low confidence and came out with a huge amount of self esteem. Let's just say, she made me feel new again and definitely has restored my confidence. I love it!!!
