    before & after by tiffany :)

    needed a good chop after attempting to cut my own hair at home & tiffany was amazing! she gave me a thorough consultation & took into consideration my face shape, how i like to wear my hair on a daily basis, & even how often i like to style my hair. she was so thoughtful about it & checked in with me an appropriate amount of time during the process to make sure i liked it as well. i have very fine/sleek hair & she somehow gave it a bit more volume! also a great conversationalist so it made time go by faster :) overall super relaxing experience & will come back to tiffany for my next cut!

    My hair before service was done on it

    The stylist I went to (Maria) messed up my hair and now I don't know how to fix it. I went in hoping to do a calico hair look. I showed her pictures, and I went in to do a consultation + test strand. I specifically told her the colors I wanted, and how light I wanted the blonde to be. She said my hair pulled amazing and I could definitely get to the blonde I was hoping for. She mapped out how it was going to look, and I said that it was a little too chunky for me and I wanted it to be broken up more. She sent me a picture and asked if this is more what I was looking for. I said yes that is perfect! But she didn't change the mapping for my hair at all and literally just did the same thing as before. My hair has 8 total sections. She put like 4 inch money pieces of "blonde" in the front, (not at ALL what I wanted) and she put the "red" and the brown directly next to each other so it just looks like blonde, dark, blonde in the back. About the blonde, I literally was more blonde before I came. The blonde I received is literally just yellow. Not at all what I wanted. She toned down my blonde pieces, so now if I want to go more blonde I'm literally going to have to bleach it AGAIN. There was so much bleeding going on, and my hair is just splotchy all around. Considering the fact that I was there for 8 hours, (when she told me it would take her 6) and the fact that I paid almost $400, you'd think she would've did a better job. I'm also not even sure if she fully knew what she was doing bc she was also constantly asking the other stylists help/input in front of me. I didn't say anything once it was finished because I was there for 8 hours already and dropped $400 on it so I was hoping I would just warm up to it, but at the end of the day, it's not at all what I asked for and I'm extremely unhappy with it. There's days I don't even like to look at myself in the mirror because I just miss my old hair. Now I have to figure out how I'm gonna fix this mess and waste another $400 doing so. That is if they'll even be able to fix it‍ In the photos attached, the first photo is how my hair looked before, the second is what I received, and the third is the inspo pic I wanted.

    Before gloss treatment

    I have thin, dry frizzy hair due to menopause. I was depressed with my frizzy hair for years. Took a chance and went to Avanza. Maria was my stylist. She was very pleasant and suggested that I try a gloss and deep conditioning treatment, since doing a keratin treatment would weigh my thin hair down which is not what I wanted. Can't say how pleased I was after seeing my hair styled and radiant after she was done with the blowout!

    They have my daughter am awesome back to school gift after her bank to school hair cut.  Very sweet and thoughtful.  My daughter LOVED it!

    Took my daughter here for a back to school special, which is an amazing offer by the way. We normally have the owner style us, but experimented with a new stylist and we're so happy with the results. The salon is very clean, inviting, and fully stocked. Even stylists who weren't working with my daughter checked in on us. When we left my daughter was so excited about her hair cut she sent pictures to all her friends. I'm always a little hesitant to have new people work on me or my kids, but was very happy with the style and how patient Maria was with my kid. I'm looking forward to getting my hair done next!

    My stylist was colorbymariia on IG... I went in to get my regular 7 week bleach touch up and she killed it!! I love how easy it was to park and lots of meal options near by. I love maria and definitely will be coming back!

    Dark purple/red color

    I was looking to color my hair a very dark purple/red color and was recommended by a friend to come support the salon. I was matched up with Itzel who did not disappoint! The salon was clean and there was plenty of parking and a shopping centers close by. And the price was great! For the service she provided she charged me $100 for full color dye, no bleach.

    I had a great experience with Maria! She was really friendly and took her time to make sure everything was perfect. You can tell she genuinely cares about her work and i left loving the outcome of my hair .

    This review is for ISIS-…read more I have a girl who I trust with my haircuts wholeheartedly but I haven't found somebody I trust coloring my hair UNTIL NOW! After researching salons in my area I came across Limon. I checked out their yelp and Instagram to see their work. My first consultation was with Kimmy but she referred me to Isis. After my consultation I was nervous but decided to have faith and went forward with my appointment one week later. I haven't had my hair colored since Oct 2024. I let my roots grow out but the bottom portion of my hair was still blond ish. My natural hair color is dark brown and I wanted to go 2 to 3 shades lighter with subtle highlights throughout. I showed inspo pictures as a reference but most of it was verbalizing what I wanted. I was in the chair from 10:30 AM to 4:50PM. It was worth it because now I love my hair! I haven't loved my hair in a long time-thank you Isis! The woman at the front desk is very friendly and offers you something to drink when you check in. The salon is well kept and pretty big inside. Plenty of parking in the back with spots reserved for Limon customers. For those curious about pricing-my service was $540

It's so nice to see the salon decorated for the holiday with the Christmas tree filled with teddy bears, adds to the warm ambiance. I was greeted by the front desk and they offered me a complimentary drink. I had a hazelnut coffee. Everything is so well done from start to finish, the experience is one all on its own. I also got some hair products that Angela introduced me to and gave me samples the first time I was here. I bought Innersense products for 20% in their Black Friday sale. I ordered them online and set them for pick up. Angela freshened up my hair and she noticed an improvement in my wavy hair and that's really all due to the tips she gave me when she did the curly haircut. She took her time in cutting the bangs and even styled it. She's so sweet and enjoys talking to you while you're in the chair. She's also very good at cutting wavy hair (hard to find someone who can do this well). Limon Salon just got voted the Best Salon in the Silicon Valley, and you can see why! Even though it took me 30 minutes to drive here in bad Bay Area traffic, it was worth it! I already scheduled my next curly haircut for the new year.

I originally booked this appointment last minute after another stylist canceled on me the day before a trip - and honestly, I'm so grateful that happened, because I would've never found Grace otherwise. Sometimes things really do work out the way they're supposed to. She absolutely killed my haircut. I have curly/wavy, thick hair, and she knew exactly how to work with it - something that's hard to find. The shape, the movement, everything came out better than I imagined. Also, the vibe was amazing - super welcoming, relaxed, and just overall such a great energy the entire appointment. Grace is also genuinely so sweet, which made the whole experience even better. Safe to say Grace is officially stuck with me as a client. Highly recommend her if you're looking for someone who really knows what they're doing, actually listens, and creates an amazing overall experience.

Walking in, my hair had uneven tones, visible warmth/brassiness, grown-out color, and dryness through the mid-lengths and ends. Vy took the time to thoroughly assess my hair, listen to my goals, and explain the process step by step--something I genuinely appreciated. Her attention to detail and knowledge instantly made me feel confident I was in the best hands. The result? Absolutely flawless. Vy transformed my hair into a beautifully blended, cool-toned, dimensional finish that looks healthy, sleek, and incredibly polished. The color is seamless from root to ends, with no harsh lines, no patchiness, and the perfect balance of cool and natural tones. My hair feels softer, smoother, and looks healthier than it has in a long time. What truly sets Vy apart is her precision, patience, and artistry. She doesn't rush--she perfects. This wasn't just a hair appointment; it was a true transformation. If you're looking for someone who is talented, professional, detail-oriented, and genuinely cares about the health and outcome of your hair, Vy is THAT stylist. I'm beyond happy with my results and will 100% be coming back. Highly, highly recommend ‍

They don't use the most fancy hair products or hair tools but it's a solid choice for a trim every quarter. I got an appointment slot of my choice when I booked 2 days in advance with my choice of hairdresser so it's convenient as I don't need to plan way in advance. I was happy with the attention to detail from Holly and with the length of hair she trimmed. She is very thorough at her job. The only thing I have to point out to them which I have noticed at every visit is to request them to apply heat protectant before they use the hair dryer. I wish they kept that in mind on their own. This is irrespective of the hair dresser at this salon. I think their prices are quite fair for the services they deliver. I will continue to visit them for my hair trims in future as well. It's a reliable hair salon in Milpitas.
