For curly girls: Your next hair service should be with Tera! I have been fighting my natural hair for too long and was looking for a haircut tailored to curly hair. What Tera gave me was so much more. Tera is your new curly girl! She truly IS a curl specialist that taught me how to treat my curls when I am not in her chair. I learned how to safely apply heat when needed, and how to stay committed to growing my locks. I am so happy with the results. I left her chair inspired and excited. And of course I booked my next appointment ;) read more

I went here for the first time today and I'm amazed by the ambiance, the fun banter between all the talented stylists, the amazing bar, but most of all Taryn is truly so incredibly talented! I came in just to get my roots touched up but I knew my hair was looking flat, so I asked her to offer me some options to bring it back to life. She toned my ends, colored my roots and I am now scheduled to get a keratin treatment from her. My hair looks the best it ever has for SUCH a reasonable rate! I just cannot recommend Taryn enough, she is personable, professional, and amazing at doing hair. Come see her! read more

I had my hair colored, cut, and styled by Tera a few days ago and my hair is still soft with healthy curls. There aren't a lot of people I trust with my hair because my hair is curly and frizzy but Tera knew exactly what to do with it. I walked out of the salon with defined curls. If you want someone to do your hair with lots of experience and knowledge, she's your girl. read more

I found this cute salon online and was able to review the services and stylists at their 2 locations. I booked with Andrea and was very happy with my experience! She was thorough in her communication with me prior to the appointment to make sure I checked out her work on IG and to share my inspo pictures with her. Andrea walked me through the process before and during. I had long dark brown/almost black hair and wanted to go very light so I plan to go back for another coloring service to go lighter than the gold pictured. I'd recommend! read more

OMG... Andrea is Ah-mazing ya'll! I came in because I desperately needed life back into my hair, and she totally brought it back from the dead! I needed color correction and a haircut, badly. From the minute I booked, I knew I made an excellent choice. She reached out prior to my appointment and had a phone assessment so she could know more about what I wanted and needed. I sent her a picture of my hair before so she could have a better idea and to allow her to allot enough time for my hair needs. During my appointment she was great with explaining everything she was doing as far as both my cut and color correction process went. I felt like she just "got me", which is so huge as I have struggled for years to find a hairstylist who understands what I'm wanting. I can't say enough great things about Andrea. I can't wait to go back! read more

Beauty Lounge - This is my "after" picture. I absolutely love it! - Hair Salons Near Me - Walnut Creek, California

Ok to start off with, this review is for Andrea who just moved to this location. And she did my hair at the other location. But get her here if you can! I am so sad I finally learned about this place during COVID. I would have loved to spend a day here with getting everything done (hair, waxing, nails) while drinking wine at their cute wine bar! It's like Tiffany blue inside with chandeliers and wood accents with old Hollywood celebrities on the wall. So classy First off I was planning on getting my hair done twice before my wedding but then COVID happened and I was beginning to think I was gonna have to home bleach myself I live in Santa Clara where things are still shut down. But hair was allowed in the east bay where my cousin lives, she booked this appointment since she is a long time customer. Her hairstylist (Robin) referred me to Andrea who LOVES doing blondes! We did a phone consultation a few weeks earlier and I was set for July 21. In the phone consultation, she mentioned a few products I should buy for after the color to either order online or buy from her! This is huge since it's not pushy at all to buy from her, but wants you to use the right stuff to keep your hair healthy! Well on July 13th, the Governor said salons in the east bay must shut down again immediately. Andrea remembered I was getting my hair done for my wedding and called me ASAP and asked if I could come in that afternoon before they shut down!!!! She went out of her way to call me for my special occasion when I'm sure she has a long list of repeat clients that she could have called. I am so happy she was able to fit me in! And she did an amazing job!!!! Plus gave me a leave in treatment to take home before the wedding to make my hair soft! She really knows what she is doing! Was even helping out the other stylist who stayed later with his client going blonde as well. The other stylist was Larry and he is literally hilarious! But don't take it from me, look at these pictures!!! Last picture is the most recent, almost a month after getting it done! read more

I recently moved from San Jose to Walnut Creek and started looking for a new hair stylist to do my hair. I have really thick long hair and so its hard to find somone who would know how to cut my hair. Well One day I walked into This Place and found Andrea. She was super nice and helpful. Told her what I wanted and she cut my hair just the way I wanted it. Im really happy I found this place and Andrea is the best. read more

Tera is the hairstylist I've been going to for about 4 years now. She not only takes care of your hair she's also is always educating me on how I can take care of my hair outside of her chair. She's a lovely hairstylist but also a genuine person on the inside she makes me feel so welcomed and loved every time I sit down in her chair. 10/10 recommend her! read more

Andrea is simply AMAZING. Where do I begin? Her communication from the day I booked, to the day of and during every step was phenomenal. She asked questions and gently made suggestions while truly considering my opinions. I had originally gone to another stylist after not getting my hair professionally done in over two years and my hair did not quite turn out the way I wanted. After not speaking up at that appointment I started trying to convince myself my hair looked okay, within 3 weeks my hair looked awful and I was embarrassed. I was at the point of "Eat the cost of your previous appointment and find a new stylist you can trust or throw a bottle of black hair dye on it and give up" I am SO happy I chose to trust Andrea! I initially was only going to do color but ended up getting a cut/shaping and layering to compliment my new color. Andrea really went above and beyond to exceed my expectations. I never knew my hair could look this good. Thank you Andrea! read more

I had a very good experience with Tera today. She took time to get my color so much nicer. I wash my hair too often, I am going to try so hard to do less damage since it feels like it was a work of art to make it this nice. Thank you Tera! It was nice to be your client and nice of you to take so much care when you knew I won't be back as a regular -as I live in Delaware. read more

My only gripe is that I didn't find this awesome hair salon and Andrea sooner! Andrea is such a sweetheart! I love her honesty and knowledge. She took her time with me, always made sure I was comfortable, and gave me great info and styling tips. I came in for a cut and style with long hair and made a drastic change to a much shorter length just above my shoulders. I'm in love with my new hairstyle...halfway through my appointment I was already beaming from ear to ear underneath my mask! Thanks so much Andrea! read more

Andrea saved my hair from a mishap at a previous salon. She not only fixed my botched color, she gave me beautiful extensions to fix my very short hair.

This review is long overdue and I have finally had the time to write it. I went to see Andrea for toner service as it had been a little over 6 weeks since I had my balayage highlights done at another salon in SoCal. They had brightened up quite a bit and taken on this gold/yellowy color that I wasn't too fond of. So I asked Andrea if we could tone them down and make them a little more subtle. I showed her some pics of what I wanted and she said it was def possible. The aftermath was exactly what I wanted and I'm so so happy I went to her. Besides the outcome itself, she is also super friendly, responsive and pleasant to work with. :) even now that it's been about two weeks since I saw her, the color is still great! thank you, Andrea!!! read more

I went in July to see Andrea so she could help me salvage my thin bleached blonde hair with severely outgrown black roots. Andrea is kind and honest about the best approach for her client's hair. She goes above and beyond to please her clients, it is shown by her attention to detail! She managed to transform my hair with more volume and bring it back life once again! I'd recommend this salon to anyone, I drive out of my way to have her work her magic on my locks. read more

Beauty Lounge - Hair by Andrea May - Hair Salons Near Me - Walnut Creek, California

Finally!! FINALLY! A salon that "gets me". I blindly found this salon on Yelp and crossed my fingers and lept. Robin will be my hair dresser for life if he'll have me. He listened, made suggestions and understood what I wanted. Hair dressers, in my experience ,often don't have that combination- you get suggestions with no listening, or listening with no suggestions. He took command of my hair and I walked out with my hair looking better than it has for years. To top it all off- this beautifully shabby chic salon has a full bar. Yes, you heard that right -A FULL BAR! I can't wait to have a cocktail with my next processing. I almost want to keep this place a secret so Robin doesn't get booked up, but he deserves the biggest shout out! Thanks Robin!!! read more

The salon is clean and spacious - I really liked the decor (esp the chandeliers) and they are doing lots to ensure safety during COVID (masks, social distancing, plexi-glass separators, hand sanitizer etc) which I very much appreciate. I had a fantastic appointment with Andrea - I have recently moved to the area from Texas, so was looking for a new stylist. I have had the same highlights & cut for many many years, Andrea suggested that I might want to try extensions - this was something I had never considered before but Andrea spent a LOT of time answering all my questions and giving me a really clear idea of what to expect in terms of final look but also the required upkeep. After being so well informed I decided to go for the extensions and I am absolutely thrilled with the outcome. Not only is she super skilled with hair but she is also a really nice person - very easy going and great to talk to. I has taken me only a little bit of time to get used to having so much more hair and I will def be going back again and again to see Andrea - I found my new stylist read more

Beauty Lounge - My new mermaid hair! Thanks Andrea 3 - Hair Salons Near Me - Walnut Creek, California

I've been coming to Beauty Lounge for about 5 years. I used to get my hair done with Jamin who always did a fabulous balayage on my long thick hair! However he works at different salon now. So now I faithfully see Andrea and she does just as great with my balayage and touch ups. I've been seeing her for about 3-4 sessions and I'm finally at the color I want to be at! She's amazing! read more

This review is for Andrea May! The sweetest, most talented lady ever. Before seeing her, I was not experienced with highlights/colors. She talked me through the whole process so I had a better understanding. Most importantly, she is always honest with me. She always explains the pricing/results/reasons for everything she does. On top of all of this, she is a badass hair stylist! She made my dry, "horse hay" hair into silky, healthy blonde!! She has the best treatment techniques, product recommendations and how to use. I love what she does! I always look forward to my hair appointments. read more

Vibes are immaculate! Went to Tera for a color and cut. Not only was she clearly experienced and caring, she was kind and personable. I have curly hair that was clearly damaged and she gave me a GORGEOUS curly cut (that also looks great straight) and some great care tips after thoroughly inquiring about my current hair care routine. 10/10 recommend and can't wait to see her again! read more

Love the Beauty Lounge!. Beautiful chandeliers, hang from the ceilings, excellent music playing, lots of laughter and friendly chatter, beverages if you like. Drea is a miracle worker! and an expert all things hair. She fixed my store bought color mistakes and knocked maybe a decade off my age, knocked out my pesky grays, added beautiful highlights and styled me with flowing, soft, want to run your fingers through my hair, style! Thanks Drea!! read more

Andrea is AMAZING!!!! I'm so glad I found her for my color/extensions!!! They are life changing and I don't trust anyone else with my hair now!

After making an appointment with Andrea, I walked into the salon and was met with an enthusiastic welcome. It was my first time seeing Andrea and she was incredibly considerate of what I wanted in my hair color and style. At every step of the process, Andrea would check in with me to ask if I was comfortable and how I felt about the process and was I feeling okay. She went to great lengths to please me as a first time client. I was Most appreciative and left the salon looking like a new woman. Now back for my second appointment, I absolutely love my hair color, highlights and cut. I've found the right person for all my future hair appointments. I have a heartfelt appreciation for Andrea's talents and how wonderful she has been. read more

Since moving to a new town, I was in desperate need of a salon for these roots that were coming in strong. I had passed by this salon on my first move here while walking through downtown but forgot to remember the name. After a huge disaster at the first salon I found via Yelp; I was a bit hesitant to try again. In comes Beauty Lounge and the incomparable Andrea! As soon as I booked the appointment, she called me right away to go over my wants and needs and suggestions. She was patient and listened to me while I was describing to her my ever-the-mess hair. Once I came into the salon, she greeted me quite kindly and went over thoughts with my hair. Again, in person, she was very patient and extremely helpful with describing her vision and possibilities with the type of hair that I have. And, but of course, the outcome was amazing! I got the beautiful blond that I wanted and gave me a perfectly textured cut to match with my everyday style. I cannot say enough great things about Andrea. She is beyond exceptional, extremely knowledgeable and such a warm presence! read more

Andrea is the best! Not only does she leave my hair looking amazing she is a beautiful person inside and out. She is very knowledgeable about hair and I'm learning a lot from her to better care for my hair. Thank you Andrea! read more

I came here recently for the first time and saw Andrea. She specializes in color, and I had not had my hair done in 9 months, so my hair was a hot mess. She had a lot of questions about what I wanted, and I had never been asked questions like this or asked to look at pictures. It makes sense, especially when there's an age or generational difference between 2 people. I've never even considered my wishes but always left it up to whoever. Anyway, I'm very happy with my color. My millennial friends like it as well and I will definitely be going back. The shop is very covid responsive, although I've been vaccinated and she has too. read more

KAREN! If you are blonde Karen is literally the best. I have been going to Karen for 7+ years and she has literally never done a less than perfect job. I have very fine, thin AF hair. She makes sure I have highlights, not a full head of blond or streaky chunks. Also it's blonde, not any of the other weird colors in the spectrum of blond. She takes time to talk to you about your wishes. In all the times I have seen her over the years. The fist question out of her mouth is "what are we doing"..... She cares and listens. Literally the best. read more

Having my hair cut in South Florida and New York City, I'm incredibly particular about who I trust with my hair (and care). Andrea cares each and every time as if she was cutting her own hair (or her best friends'). In COVID times, I was anxious to go into any salon, but Beauty Lounge did everything the right way. The entire salon is clean, well kept and modern with feminine touches that make you so excited to come back the next time. My favorite hour or two to myself every few months are the times I need a haircut. Ask for my girl Andrea - she won't ever dissappont. read more

Came here to see Betty who did my cut, color and keratin treatment. I love it! I had never dyed my hair before so she explained the process and left my hair blonde and beautiful! She even made time for me to come in for my toner and a blowout when she wasn't scheduled in order to fit my schedule. I honestly don't trust anyone else with my hair. read more

There really are no words to describe how amazing my colorist Nancy is! I was recommended to her by a good friend and have been coming to her for about 6 years now. When I first started coming to Nancy I lived in Pismo Beach and would make a 5 hour drive to get my hair done. Recently I have relocated to the Bay Area so if timed right it only takes me one hour to get here. And that one hour is so worth it. Finding a colorist that is good with blondes is not as easy as it sounds. I, in particular like my hair white white blonde, and for most colorists that is a challenge, but never for Nancy. She is the blonde specialist, with a majority of her clients being blondes she knows what she is doing. It never fails wherever I go I get compliments on my hair color. I never hesitate to mention Nancy and The Beauty Lounge, the least I can do is help another blonde out, especially if it's a yellow/orange blonde (yuck). The Salon itself is amazing, a shop decorated beautifully with chandeliers and a very modern hip feel to it. It's nice that I can come in after my workout and enjoy a glass of Champagne or a Mimosa while I get my hair done. There is also conveniently a coffee shop next door so while you process you can run over and pick up a latte or what not. As far as Parking goes there is a parking garage located not even one block away across the street. Even during the rainy stormy season it wasn't a problem getting to the salon, that's how close it is. As I mentioned before I've been coming to Nancy for the past 6 years, I honestly wouldn't trust anyone else with my hair, she really is that good. So if you're in need or know someone who needs a colorist specializing in blondes, Nancy is your girl. I highly recommend this salon and would give it more stars on Yelp if it were possible. I have an update to this review, i just recently had my haircut here by Michael, and i have to say that I absolutely love it. I was totally hesitant to cut my hair because I've been growing it out for almost 2-3 years. Michael is very attentive and did a full consultation before he chopped away, which to me is 110% important to me. He asked how i wanted it to look, how i wanted to be able to style it etc. Important questions to someone who Is so resistant to the scissors. Needless to say he took about 5-6 inches off and I love it! My hair is so healthy and bouncy now. Funny thing is in the past 3 months since I've cut my hair it's probably grown more than it has in the 3 years that i was actually growing it out. Of course cause my bleach blonde locks are much healthier now. I most definitely recommend Michael to anyone looking to get a haircut!!! read more

I've always been satisfied with my visits with her because she is a talented artist that has been able to consistently make my hair look and feel the way I envisioned.

She also squeezed my 9 year old niece in during my appointment, cut her hair, styled her and made her feel so special! My niece wouldn't leave after, she proceeded to spend 2 more hours while my hair was being completed, and talked to Mia like they were best friends. She did an amazing job on her hair as well :) read more
