I had been going to this place for years 5+ for hair cuts, Brazilian blow outs, and color. However…read moreI stopped going after I was quoted $600 to bleach my hair. My hair was virgin and not even long. This left a sour taste and I have not returned since. I am now traveling outside of Oakland to do my hair.

I moved to Oakland relatively recently and really wanted to find a solid go to stylist and I'm VERY…read morehappy with BIBO. I have had two haircut haircuts there - the first one by Georgina and the second with Itzel - and I can honestly say that these are two of the best haircuts I've ever had. I am very particular about what I want my hair to look like and how I want it to lay, and both of them were so understanding of my pickiness, both wonderful listeners and very skilled at their artistry. Also the owner Susie is just the warmest and sweetest. The salon just feels very accessible, everyone is genuinely and down to earth - and I am very grateful to have found it! Yay

Loved this appointment! This salon is located near my old apartment and is very nice!…read more The salon is very neat, well lit, stocked with lots of products. This was my first appointment here and I was with the Hair Stylist Danielle. The appointment was long but I loved the amount of care and effort she put into cutting my hair. I wasn't rushed or anything! I had the sudden urge to cut off all my hair into a bob after seeing my current hair in a picture of me in the sun... My hair was BAD .. I could see the color difference between my natural hair growing out and the old bleached hair that I dyed a chocolate brown. I was panicked when I saw this in my picture... It was literally looking at two separate people's hair. YIKES.. Danielle saved the day! I usually have a tough time finding a good stylist but I'm glad I trusted Danielle with this transition from long to short hair. I've never cut my hair this short .. but I was happy about the results!! She did so well!! I loved it! I'll be back soon for a trim!! Glad I found BIBO Salon! Danielle saved the day!

Five stars for Justin!! I am new to the Bay, hadn't yet found the colorist who would understand my…read morehair and the look I wanted. I booked with Justin at Salon 1500 based on reviews. He reached out for a conversation before I came in and I knew I was in good hands. And then I was BLOWN AWAY by what he was able to achieve!! I had expected it would take a few visits to get there. Justin knows hair!! There is a science and an art to color, especially for those of us wanting dimensional color. Justin has both expertise and artistry!! I'm just delighted. I want to also mention that the salon itself is lovely. Spacious and airy, with a sweet back patio. I loved the art, too. The whole experience was uplifting! Justin is easy to talk to, the vibes are chill. I'm including before and after photos in hopes that my review might help someone else in a similarly desperate situation. You can trust Justin at Salon 1500!! He's awesome!!

5 Stars for Justin Lorenz! ***** I'm lucky enough to live right around the corner from the salon,…read moreand Justin has become my absolute go‑to for both haircut and color. He's incredibly accommodating, especially with my unpredictable work schedule and the constant juggle of being a mom. He always communicates clearly about his availability and somehow finds a way to make things work, even when I need a last‑minute rescue for a quick color or cut. Justin is not only professional but genuinely thoughtful in his approach. He asks great questions about what I need, offers helpful recommendations, and always makes sure we're on the same page before he starts. The cuts he's given me have been amazing, easy to manage, and perfect for someone who's always on the go. On top of all that, he's just a wonderful person. He's caring, a great listener, and creates such a comfortable, welcoming experience every time I'm in his chair. Honestly, these appointments make my days better.

While I was sitting there he shared me a lot of his stories about Vietnam and it was really fun listening to his stories. The location was in the Diva nail studio and he just had a chair in the back. But it gave old school vibes Just you and the barber. Nothing fancy. However it gave me everything I wanted and for a price of 30$, it was a total steal. He's my new barber for as long as I stay in Oakland Tip: The location is 489 8th street Oakland ca at diva nails salon. His old location listed on yelp has closed down. It's only a block down from the old location.

PSA for anyone looking for Chris (and had trouble reaching him lately):…read more Thank the heavens - he is just on vacation until May 27th (or maybe considering Memorial Day weekend, then perhaps until the 29th?). Personally, while I have only been his customer one time, I slightly panicked because all I need is a simple haircut - Chris was wonderful last time and so very affordable for my needs! I will just have to be patient while he visits family and friends back in motherland :)

The 2…read moreladies who were helping me were so nice and kind. the whole process took about almost 4 hours. The only reason I did not give a 5 star is because i mentioned to her how short i want my hair to be cut (about my chest area) but without warning she just cut and cut and she was so fast before i can say anything the hair is already shorter than what I wanted and unfortunately i can't stop her or even have time to say anything. i wish she communicate more with me while cutting. But it turned out So so good and i love it! so i am ok with the result, but I just wish my hair is a bit longer! I made a TikTok video from the process please check it out!

From the moment we met, she made me feel comfortable, listened closely to what I wanted, and was incredibly responsive. Marilyn has the range to create everything from minimalistic looks to full glam, and I appreciated that she never pushed me in either direction. We found the perfect in-between, and during the trial, she patiently worked with me to tweak my makeup and try different hairstyles until it felt just right. Marilyn is also such a wonderful person. She's warm, easy to talk to, and made both the trial and my wedding morning feel calm and enjoyable. She's also part of a network of artists who can step in if something unexpected happens, which gave me extra peace of mind leading up to the big day. Marilyn an incredibly talented artist, and I feel so lucky she was the one who helped me get ready for my wedding day. Thanks Marilyn!

Pricy but worth it, I think I'll get a haircut with more layers next time for the price that is charged :) Would definitely come back, you can tell she is trained very well and really listens to what you want. So happy I found her salon because the last one I went to near Lake Merritt messed up my haircut pretty bad. Would recommend!
