Yesenia did an amazing job lightening my dark hair in one session! The work she put into installing extensions and blending everything was above and beyond and I couldn't be more grateful! I was so impressed by her work and her dedication to the craft. She listened and communicated everything very carefully. It looked so beautiful once it was all done. I highly recommend her. Great salon and great vibes, too! read more

BB Meme Salon Hillcrest - Hair Salons Near Me - San Diego, California

I wanted light brown (my natural color) with dark blonde balayage, and a cut with long blended layers. I ended up with almost a copper color since my hair was completely over bleached during balayage (highlights were white) and then all toned way too dark. The cut is horrible; the front layer is one blunt cut just below the chin and does not blend in at all. Zero layers in back. My hair was completely tangled in knots after the shampoo and the hairdresser had to have another come help brush my hair for 20 minutes and i saw clumps fall out. The whole time she knew she was making mistakes and kept saying she was scared and things like "oh no" when she opened the foils, which of course made me anxious the whole time as well (& i was there over 4 hours). Absolutely do not come here if you are used to a professional service. I will have to pay hunders of dollars more somewhere else for correction. read more

Hector was so on point!! I always have a hard time finding or trusting someone to cut my curly hair I really appreciate how he listens to exactly what I wanted and makes a personalized plan for the results. I had coffee and there was a great vibe in the shop! It was so fast you can tell how concentrated and how much he cares about his work. I came in with red messed up color and he took the time to carefully remove my original damaged hair color while bringing my hair back to life proudly Hector's newest client wherever he's at IM going!! I recommend him to all my friends with curly hair especially as this is a common problem with many salons all over San Diego who don't take the time to find someone who cares about curly hair read more

This place was awesome.. great costumer service ....yesenia did a excellent job with my daughter hair extensions

I went here for the first time the other day because i was looking to get a vintage pin up hairstyle for an event i was going to attend and i had many of my friends recommend me to Hector from this salon.

I gave Hector the creative freedom to do on me the vintage hairstyle he thought would look best on me and wow he definitely delivered, i never thought i would look good with a middle part since ive worn my hair to the side forever...... Needless to say Hector, as well as im sure the other stylists here are some true professionals and you are sure to get your moneys worth here. Thank you again Hector!! I will definitely be coming back here and recommend all my friends to him!! read more

I have been going to Hector who works here for years. The problem is not the hair Hector does wonderful amazing hair. The problem is on the business side. On more than one occasion Hector has charged a deposit and not deducted it from the services once for my sister's wedding. When she pointed it out he sent her half via Venmo and said he could not afford the other half till the following week and she never heard from him again. Rather than persue it she choose not to be his client ( her hair is down to her butt and long hair is extra) and not to give him wedding recommendations. Cut to a few weeks ago he wanted a deposit for my friends blowout and my flat iron. She paid she told me what she paid I said what about the deposit she said what deposit. I asked him about it he forgot again. He said I could trade it for services a few weeks later I asked it be traded for bang trims which was less than he owed me. He blocked me and won't respond to me through other channels. He is willing to loose clients over small amounts of money he request as deposits but "forgot" to deduct on more than one occasion then would rather block you than make good. What are the chances he would make the same mistake twice to sisters on separate occasions both times it his favor and not make good on either when called out.Edit: received a reply he says he owes me nothing because he has given me discounts in the past and he "knows his worth" that doesn't change the fact he offered me services of hair in exchange for cash money he owed me. Also my sister's wedding he didn't give her back all the deposit for he made more money than any discount he ever gave me. I know the worth of clients too and doing right by them. read more

They offer so many services, you can get it all done in one place. read more

BB Meme Salon Hillcrest - Purple!! - Hair Salons Near Me - San Diego, California

Had my haircut with Edwin and he was great! As a person with curly hair, it's very hard for me to find people that cut my hair like I want, that take the time to understand how their cut choices are going to turn out and that check in throughout the process rather than cutting too much too fast. Edwin focuses on haircuts and it shows! read more

Such a neighborhood gem! I won't trust anyone but Rhinny to do my nails from here on out. Her Crystal reiki manicures add a special touch to leave you feeling refreshed and rejuvenated, while having your nails looking gorgeous. She's also an incredible listener, so it's like a whole healing and therapy session for the price of a gel manicure. I've gotten both gel manicures on my natural nails and Gel-X (which is much healthier than acrylics) done and both have been excellent. read more

Went here to get my hair done by Edwin ( @win25v ) and it went amazing. The environment is so inviting, and Koji the owner was so nice. Edwin helped me get the cut and color I loved and Ashlee ( @AmtSkin ) did my make up beautifully. If you are ever looking for a new cut, a facial, or just looking to level up your style I highly recommend going here. 10/10 read more

Went downtown for a holiday party last night and wanted to schedule a last-minute blowout. I wanted to find a salon within a few blocks of my hotel, and this salon came highly rated online. The experience was wonderful! Was there just under an hour. Had my hair washed with a little bit of a head massage and neck massage before the blowout started. My hair turnout out beautifully for the evening! I paid $49 in cash which is a pretty standard price! Docked a star because the location isn't the best. Lots of transient people around. However, I heard the salon is moving to Hillcrest. I'd recommend this spot if you need a blowout while downtown! read more

This review is for manicurist Nina. I came here to follow her, having seen her work at a previous salon nearby where she worked. So, when I found out that she moved here, I did too!;) Not only is she so kind and professional-- but possesses quite a memory! I can't believe that she remembered a color that I had gotten a year ago, for the Thanksgiving holiday. My favorite thing however, which sets her apart from other manicurists-- is the mini shoulder massage afterwards! read more

Koji has an amazing talent and I feel so happy and grateful how healthy and beautiful my hair is today! He's the best and would recommend him to anyone! read more

My sister got her hair done here before, but this time from Koji! I already made an appointment before seeing her results and liked how hers turned out. I showed Koji what I was looking for and he worked his magic. He offered me some hot tea and magazines while I was waiting for my hair to take in the red color. I'm glad that I didn't have to get it bleached or anything beforehand. My hair turned out great and I loved that he also curled my hair too. It's been a few months since my last visit, so I think it's time to make another appointment! read more

I've been seeing Koji for 15 years for a haircut and I still think he's the best hairstylist around. I highly recommend him!!!

I looked around at a bunch of salons in SD but ultimately settled for BB MEME because it looked like the stylists were versed in a wider array of cuts than the usual bland trends. And I'm so glad I did! Koji has that intense artist energy that I recognize and identify with ~ he was great in listening to my concerns and wishes and knew exactly what to do while adjusting for my requests. It was obvious he knew exactly what he was doing as each cut was purposeful and the result was quick to show and perfect! I'll definitely be returning for future cuts. Thank you so much! read more

Koji is a master at what he does. My last haircut was nice but did not compliment me one bit. Koji fixed that problem.

Never had a hair stylist that understands my hair. My hair is thin, dull and limp. Koji knows how to brings it to life everytime I see him. He is now my go to person when I needed my hair done. read more

ABSOLUTE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE, Why book someone knowing you can't fulfill service? I was booked for 3:30, I spent money getting uber.....waited for an HOUR......I set time aside from my plans to get service and was left there waiting. I don't recommend this unprofessional salon. I also noticed terrible color on a client...it looked like an orange yellow. Which was supposed to be blonde. Glad I left! read more

I came across BBMeme salon on Instagram and decided to try it. I wanted to have a makeover and Koji just nailed it! Let me tell you that my hair was a little tender, wanted to get some color but was concerned about damaging it more. Koji did a drape effect which was just perfect! A touch of light with no damage and a super cute bob haircut! Just in the heart of San Diego, super convenient. If you are in the area, try BBMeme salon, Koji is an artist and his staff is so nice, I had a lot of fun while I was there. Highly reccomended! read more
