This salon is hands down the best one I've been to in the bay- Hector was incredible as was his assistant (Kenya?!). They made me feel so comfortable and beautiful. I felt pampered the entire time, and seeing Hector truly enjoying himself styling, cutting, and coloring my hair made me feel so confident! They are all so kind and easy to be with so the vibe in the studio is so warm. I can't wait to show off my new long bob, and have all my friends come here read more

5 stars for Yelly. Otherwise known as Danielle. She is a master of color. Love how my hair highlights turned out with that perfect fit of flair and contemporary. She's great to talk to as well. Deep, fun, and insightful. read more

I was long overdue for a haircut and booked a slot with Marian (super easy through booksy). I left her salon feeling refreshed and super excited about my hair. What's even better is that it's easy to take care of and looks great without any extra effort. Marian will listen to your hair dreams and make them come to life. Can't wait to grow my hair out so I can visit her again. read more

Bijoux Salon - Hair by Marian - Hair Salons Near Me - San Francisco, California

See all

I recently had my hair cut by Sarah Mya. She was thoughtful, friendly, professional & gave me a do that I could be proud of! Sarah Mya took her time with my hair, figuring out what would work best with my hair texture & head shape. There was absolutely no rush when I was in her chair, and I was grateful. Bijou is well-placed downtown on Sutter at Stockton, near-ish to the entrance to Chinatown. It's easily accessible from either Montgomery or Powell St. Bart stations as well as a no. of bus lines. In addition to being in a prime downtown locale, the salon itself is cozy and tastefully decorated. (I now regret not getting any snaps, but, to be honest, wasn't thinking of Yelp while there.) Take the elevator to the third floor & follow the signs. Easy-peasy. I felt well taken care of by Sarah Mya & would recommend her & her salon to any and all. read more

With my Bloomspot coupon in hand, I made my cut + color appointment with Liz Layne. I was NOT disappointed. Liz took the time to ask me for input with regard to color, and assess my hair in its current condition/style. The color is fantastic, and the cut is even better! Also important was Liz's insistence on making sure that I was happy with the cut and inviting feedback, saying, "It's your hair, and you have to wear it every day!" Clean, professional surroundings with French Press coffee and water available during your appointment. Not pretentious or stuffy! Save the hassle of looking for a stylist. Call Liz. I'm hooked and happy! read more

Bijoux Salon - Thanks, Liz, for my sassy new 'do and beautiful color! - Hair Salons Near Me - San Francisco, California

I have been in search for a new stylist, and was referred to Marian by a coworker. Marian is a great listener and made suggestions I didn't even think about. I can't say enough about how satisfied I am with my visit. The salon is cute, clean and the staff is friendly! I've been getting so many compliments about my hair! I will be going back to Marian from now on! Thanks again Marian! read more

Paul Laxton of Bijoux is a hair wizard! There have been times where he has cut my hair and it has looked longer! I have been coming to Bijoux since 2011. Paul has helped my hair transition from shoulder length to waist length and back again. He is MARVELOUS with color as well! I have gotten so many compliments on my (not naturally) red hair because of him! And he is an absolute joy to chat with during appointments! read more

Found my new go to stylist!!! I recently had a color and cut and I'm absolutely adoring my new look! I somewhat had an idea of what I wanted my hair to look like (my hair was lifeless), Marian was so patient with me and gave great suggestions. My hair color is gorgeous and my cut is a layered look w/bangs. Love that the side of my bangs fall perfectly when I put my hair in a ponytail! I can't stop gushing about my cut and color! Ambiance: Pleasant and clean, friendly and attentive staff read more

This review is about the very fierce and fabulous Liz! My stylist of 6 years had run off to 'find a real job', as she put it...which left me full of sorrow and feeling a bit lost. She had been rocking out my hair for such a long time, and the idea of starting over with someone new made me nervous. (I have had traumatic razor cutting by inept gay men incidents in the past). However, a friend of mine ran into me one night sporting one of the most badass hairstyles I had ever seen on her, and I begged for a referral. She directed me to Liz Layne...and I was instructed that she was a bundle of spitfire Southern charm....not to mention a sorceress of hair magic. Being that I am also Southern, I HAD to go check this out. My friend was so right. Liz is funny, sweet, and man did she rock out my shaggy, long neglected 'do. I left with something she called a cross between Retford and Pitt...and I have been in love with her ever since. She is also not terribly expensive, for the amazing skills at her disposal. I have referred my fiance to her, my three best friends, and I regularly send people to experience her awesomeness. An extra note: Liz REALLY shines with how well her cuts grow out. I have been swamped with work and with moving, and haven't been able to see her with my normal frequency lately. My hair still looks pretty damn good. (I am supremely looking forward to my appointment in a week, however...) Go see her. Love her. Tell yo frands about her! She is worth it! read more

Marian is simply the BEST!! She's incredibly talented and has been cutting and coloring my hair for over a decade! I followed her from her 2 other salons to Bijoux, where she's the owner. I have pretty difficult, corse unmanageable hair but she somehow is able to give me low-maintenance cuts that grow out amazing each time. Marian herself has great style and understand what looks good on me even when I give her little to no direction. She is meticulous and takes her time to ensure I love my new do and I always a receive ton of compliments - 3 of my close friends actually go to her now and won't see anybody else either. The salon is stylish, chic and relaxing (just like her) and I really can't say enough great things about Marian. Book her today, you won't regret it! read more

I love Paul Laxton and his Organic Keratin Smoothing Treatment! I have been trying to grow my baby fine hair shoulder length for the past year but certain spots are prone to breakage and I was getting frustrated. I had Paul's organic keratin treatment on Saturday, waited 72 hours to wash it and today I have new hair! I am so happy, not only did it smooth the ends, it added texture, body and shine. Paul explained the organic system is milder than the traditional Brazilian blow out because it uses plant proteins instead of animal proteins and that is a huge plus for a vegetarian like me. The salon, Bijoux, is super cute and quiet (which I love, not a fan of the dance club/salon vibe!) and it's conveniently located in Union Square. Go see Paul, your hair will thank you! read more

MARE CAN DO HAIR! I've been a loyal client of Mare for years now and she never disappoints! She has given me numerous cuts throughout the years and also did the hair straightening treatment on me. She also used to cut my hubby's hair, but he's elected to shave his head the past few years. However, he used to come home lookin' all fly! Mare can definitely work your hair to your features and have you walking out looking (and feeling) like a model. Another skill that Mare excels at is updos! Mare did my engagement shoot hair (retro style) and my hair for my wedding. I received SO many compliments on my retro 'do and on my wedding day, my hair came out beautifully and even stayed put all day! I was thrilled with the results and cannot gush more about what a fantastic job she did! I've referred her to numerous friends and am also trying to get her to be the hairstylist for the two weddings I'll be in this year. Seriously, 5 stars all the way! read more

*THIS REVIEW IS FOR LIZ LAYNE & MARIAN HA* - and of course for Bijoux in general. :) If either of you are reading this, please don't kill me- I'm like 2 months overdue in writing this. Which reminds me, it's probably about time to come back in! I bought a Bloomspot deal for a haircut ($35 for $65 I think) with Liz Layne. After reading rave reviews on Yelp, I figured what the heck? You should know up-front that I've purchased 2 other Bloomspots before this one- and while satisfied with the cut and service, I never left "wowed" and days later, although my hair was healthy, I wasn't sure what I had paid for style-wise. It didn't have the bounce and flow it should. Liz Layne is the whole enchilada! Cute little Tennessee-transplant I liked her from the start! Although running a bit behind, she gave me all the time I needed, and didn't cut into my appointment just because the woman before me was fussy. She started the appointment by asking me what I wanted and then demonstrating how she was going to do it. (I have long, thick, medium-dark brunette hair. Its definitely one of my favorite features. It's never been dyed or highlighted.) I just wanted to add some layers and style. It was flat and tapestry like- I wanted the va-va-voom! Liz was friendly, professional, and amazing. She didn't try to sell me on any products and a MONTH later I'm still in love with what she did. If you haven't found your stylist (or if the one you go to you don't love) TRY LIZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I docked a star for the wait time (30 minutes) and for the price. I'm not used to paying $65 a cut. (In my hometown I pay $30- LIZ could you charge me 30 and I'll give you a 50% tip??!?!) MARIAN HA: While at my appointment, my boyfriend got his haircut by Marian. She had some availability, and he was eternally grateful. He's in the process of growing out his hair (thank god) and she helped thin it out and distribute the weight. He left incredibly happy! If I can muster up the acceptance for a $65 haircut, you bet I'll be back. Oh to hell with the money- I'll be back! I've found my SF stylist! read more

Marian used to cut my hair back when she was still a Festoon-ie. I've been to many different stylists ranging in different backgrounds of cut and color between that time and now, and I've come full circle back to her. She understands hair, texture and lifestyle balance. Or imbalance, in my case. I find that many stylists give you cuts that only work if you are willing to do a ton of work on your hair everyday. I am not one of those people. Marian's cuts are stylish, lasting, and easy to maintain. Conversations are always a plus, too. Marian is so mellow and grounded, I have often left without grasping that she was dispelling words of wisdom until I'm out the door with that self-realized feeling...and a super hot haircut. She doesn't need this review, but I'm writing it anyway. I'm glad to find her again. Thanks, M! read more

5 stars for Holly! I have had my hair cut and colored by Holly at Bijoux twice now, and I don't know how I lived without her in my life for all these years! I've never had color so beautiful. I am so happy with they way she has been able to bring my hair back to life. Holly is the kind of hairstylist you can give full creative reign to, and you can trust that she will make you look flawless. Better yet, she is so nice and easy to talk to, hilarious, and in a word: AMAZING. Bijoux is super cute, very convenient location near my work on market street, and the products they use are divine. read more

Just got another compliment on my lovely "natural" auburn color. "Oh, I wish I had hair color like yours!"....oh, but you could! Just go see Sarah Mya. I feel like red can look so fake....either orangey or purply.... but I am in love with the dark auburn that Sarah Mya has concocted for me. Enough color to pop a little, but not too crazy weird or high maintenance. Best yet, she uses an organic hair color that leaves my hair so healthy and shiny, not dry and damaged like it used to get after highlighting. Sarah Mya has been cutting and coloring my hair for about 3 years now. I've gone from long-ish hair with layers, to short bobs, and each time I leave the salon looking HOT (if I do say so myself!). The style of Bijoux is a little different than other salons I've been to (especially salons outside of SF). The stylists book their own appts, and come in just for you. You get their full attention for the time that may be there (which can be up to a couple hours depending on what you're getting done). There's no shuffling you between receptionist to shampoo person to stylist, with your stylist running back and forth between clients. I like the more relaxed feel, and feeling unrushed and like I have my stylist's full attention. Sarah Mya is such a sweetheart too. Love chatting with her about topics ranging from the latest celeb gossip to the intricacies of the chemistry of hair color (just ask her why "semipermanent" color can actually be more permanent!). read more

Liz Layne did my hair for my June 2013 wedding. I was so happy with her work on me, my five bridesmaids, and my mom. She was efficient, talented, kind, and easy going. Liz came to the hotel and spent the day there making us all beautiful. I got so many compliments on my hair that day. She recreated the hairstyle we agreed on after my trial and she worked magic with my bridesmaids, who have really different types of hair. Her prices are great. So reasonable compared to the many other stylists I contacted. I'd highly recommend her services to anyone! read more

This review is for a haircut I got from Liz Layne. Liz is GREAT! She just moved here from the South (I want to say TN?) and I got a Bloomspot deal for a cut at an amazing price. I remember her telling me what the normal price was and that was also totally reasonable. Liz is a great hairstylist. She listened to what I wanted first, without making suggestions or just starting and after I said I was pretty much clueless she told me what she thought about my hair (basic layers and keeping length) and I agreed. She was very quick, but not so quick she didn't do a stellar job. She cut my bangs to a perfect length, and they looked great. She is also SUPER friendly and nice. I've had really awful and awkward hairdressers before and Liz was the opposite. She was very open and welcoming, didn't ask crazy prodding questions but just kept up a genuine conversation. I really felt like she was talking to me as a person and not just another client. Next time I need a cut, I'm considering waiting until I'm back in the city so Liz can cut it again. Seriously folks, she's an amazing stylist and I recommend her 100%. read more

Almost a 4... Used a Bloomspot deal here. Bijoux is a great find - emphasis on FIND. It's in the middle of a business building, no sign outside and entry after 6pm does not exist... my appt was at 6:15. Had to wait for someone to walk out of the building. Called the phone # on yelp and only got a voicemail. Liz was a great stylist and has lots of tricks up her sleeves for curls! Appt was 20 mins late... and the waiting room seating is a rather uncomfortable bench with the 1 comfy chair taken by 2 purse dogs - owned by another stylist. In the end, I love my cut but will look elsewhere for a regular spot. read more

This really is as good as it gets! We've all had stylists that just do just an acceptable job. Or a good one, but not outstanding, and through sheer inertia we don't try someone else. Marian Ha isn't one of those stylists who's merely good - she does an exceptional job, every single time. I tell her the look I'm going for, and she cuts my hair in a way that pays attention to the look I want yet also flatters me and my hair type. She's cut my hair for years now, and I've followed her from Festoon (where I was a 15+ years patron) to Ron Pernell to Bijoux, a new venture that she co-owns. If that weren't enough, my appointments are always thoroughly enjoyable because she's a cool person and I like her very much. I always look forward to my appointments with her. In addition to cuts, Marian has also done a special style for me twice now, and both times the styles have turned out wonderfully. I received numerous compliments on my hair. She listens to what you want and also explains her recommendations. I tend to not be very creative with my hair in terms of styling, and her work opens my eyes to all the possibilities that exist. I would trust her completely with any special occasion style. She's a rock star. In addition, the atmosphere of the salon is nice and soothing, with cool and minimalist (yet comfortable) decor. It's not crazytown or impersonal like it can be at other salons. And it's right across the street from the Sutter/Stockton garage. If you go here, you will not be disappointed. They are the real deal. read more

Very good experience with Liz Layne: Great cut, nice conversation, affordable price. read more

Marian Ha is an amazing stylist. She actually helped me go from hair-down-to-my-waist, to a beautiful pixie (to donate)... and I wouldn't have gone to anyone else. She really transformed my look and I couldn't be happier. Not only is Marian a great stylist, but she's also a really great person. She's super easy going and not pushy... she is really attentive and listens fully to what you want and what you need :) read more

Southern charm + firecracker spunk = Liz Layne. Going to a hair stylist for the first time can be an anxious experience for anyone. Liz quickly put my mind at ease and has done an excellent job with my highlights and trim. We instantly connected with similar backgrounds, moving to SF for love and had so much to visit about. I will definitely be back :) read more

My hair and I have been seeing Marian for over 7 years. We both adore her and her artistic ability. She totally understands the look we're going for even when we don't explain ourselves well enough. She's honest and will let you know if she doesn't think a certain style will be flattering on you, and we appreciate that. We started seeing her when she was at Festoon Salon and followed her, like a stalker, when she moved to the Ron Pernell Studio and happy she's made her own home at Bijoux. She's never let us down and we're huge fans of hers! read more

Paul is AMAZING! He has taken my naturally curly surfer hair and cut it such a way that it dries CRAZY HOT! I love it so much. Most of my life, I have hated my curly, crazy hair. But, the way he cuts it makes it look awesome. I love having Paul in my life as he is open to hear what you want, excited to help you get what you need, and is stoked to see you walk out of his salon elated with your natural beauty. THANKS PAUL, you are amazing! Thanks for your passion:) read more

A good man is hard to find. A good haircut can be even harder. That's how I felt when I landed in Marian's chair while she worked at Festoon, and I think I've found myself a keeper. I'm happy to be seated in the warm embrace of her chair now at Bijoux, where she is an owner. Marian's been everything I want in a stylist and then some: easygoing, accepting and sincere as a person, but seriously talented as a stylist, capable of providing direction as well as taking feedback. I love it that she recognizes that there are a series of relationships involved in achieving a good cut - not just her understanding of the texture and type of hair I have, but my level of skill at maintaining a style. I like it that we can have an honest conversation about what I'm looking for, what's necessary to achieve it, and whether it's a realistic possibility given these factors. If that sounds like I'm high maintenance, it's true, but not because I use a bazillion products and take an hour to style my hair every morning. It's the opposite: I'm so hopelessly untalented with a hairdryer and brush that I rely heavily on having an excellent cut (and occasionally color) to do the work for me...which makes Marian's work all that much more impressive. As for the salon itself, I find it to be a nice change from the salon where I previously worked with Marian: rather than the constant hum of energy - lights, hairdryers, music, chatter - reflecting off polished surfaces at all times, Bijoux is a calm respite from this kind of atmosphere. It's a relaxed and interpersonal experience, with only a couple chairs and thus only a few people in the salon at a time. This means little or no interruptions, leaving you free to zone out or chat with your stylist. It's clear that it's a space for evolution, change, and progress. I'm a gal who's generally predisposed towards low-key, unpretentious places and experiences, so I consider Bijoux like finding that rare gem in the rough: bursting with the potential for astonishing beauty, and so far, one of the best kept secrets in the city. read more

PAUL! Thank you thank you thank you... For the first time in YEARS, I love my hair. I've been trying to grow my hair out for a while now, and I actually think it's possible now. I have thin and unruly hair that I thought was impossible to look decent without getting a cut / blow dry... Officially hooked on the keragreen treatment and the great service at Bijoux. read more

So sorry to have to write this. Got haircut about a month ago. My hair is long, passed shoulders, dry, coarse, wavy. My hair was thinned out using the shears with a downward motion. This is NOT THE WAY TO CUT MY HAIR!! It is way more frizzy than before my haircut. Sorry, Never again!!! Isn't there anyone who can cut my hair? Very disappointed! read more

I just got my haircut and color done by Liz. She did a fantastic job and made the whole experience comfortable and relaxing. She got me tea and tissues while doing my hair (I had a bit of a cold), and we chatted about her background and living in SF. She did a great job with my color and cut. I have medium to long brown hair with not a lot of body and she was able to give me angles and layers that provide movement which I definitely appreciate. She did a great job creating the brown that I was looking for after having highlights for a few months. I highly recommend her for any woman. Overall a great experience! read more

Used @StyleSeat to book an appointment with Liz Layne. She did a great job and is a lovely person. Couldn't be happier with my cut.

friendly staff, reasonable prices. I love Liz Layne, she does great color and cuts!

Had a great experience with Liz Layne - I had purchased a groupon (or something like it) for Bijoux Salon and was very happy to easily book an appointment with Liz. I'm not usually one to make small talk during haircuts, but It was great chatting with Liz. She is super down to earth and her tips for how I should cut/style my hair made for a great experience :) read more

Great, easy to get to spot, plus is parking right across the street. Yelly ROCKS! If you want your hair cut right she's your lady. I've been going to yelly for a few years now, I even followed her from a former salon, that's how good she is. Great points about Yelly is she listens to what I want, she's been very flexible with my work schedule, and she's just super cool. read more

This review is for Yelly. She has been cutting my hair for more than a year and has taken me through a very awkward growing-my-bangs-out phase, to emerge the other side with a hairstyle i love! My hair normally grows in the shape of a giant curly mushroom cloud, and she's fabulous at giving it a non-mushroomy shape and thinning it out in all the right places. To top it all off, she's very sweet and fun to chat with. read more

Bijoux is a very cool salon. Chill, cozy, chic, convenient.. awesome. .. And Yelly ROCKS! I started seeing Yelly about 6 years ago & haven't been able to go to anyone else since! Her haircuts and color are always beautiful and they last longer because they're cut so well. I get tons of compliments on how natural my highlights look even though they're blonde on dark brown hair. Now, if that's not magical.. I don't know what is. read more

Marian Ha has been cutting and coloring my hair perfectly for seven years. In that seven years my hair has been every length, every color (yes, every!), curly, straight, chemically straight, blunt cut, bobbed, fringed, layered...you get the picture. No matter what crazy whim I have, my hair always looks incredible and remarkably healthy considering what i put it through. I cannot recommend her highly enough. read more

Tucked away from the madness of Union Square, Bijoux salon offers some of the best stylists in town. Specifically, Yelly is an amazing stylist who I have been trusting my unruly hair with for nearly 10 years. Professional, yet personal, Yelly will really listen to what you want, but also be honest about the reality of what your hair can do. She does amazing, natural looking color and super pro razor cuts. With a chamomile tea in your hand, good tunes in the background, fun conversation, and the best damn head massage ever, Bijoux salon and Yelly make you feel pampered, yet right at home. So, the next time you look in the mirror and think, "Woah", go see Yelly!! read more

I really liked a friend's hair-cut and she referred me to Marian Ha about a year ago. Marian has been cutting my hair since. The hair-cuts she gives me look great when I leave her salon and easy to maintain at home. She spend extra time to curl and style me hair before an event. Not only she gives me great cuts, but also teach me the technics and tools I need to style my hair at home. She is really chill and listens to me about the look I wanted. I'm so glad I found her as my hair dresser! read more

I made an advance appointment for a Saturday. The place was empty with the exception of one other person. My stylist seemed put out that she had to be there for my appt. for cut and color. I told her I wanted my blond hair a couple shades darker and wanted a "bob" with layers on top for volume. After she slapped on the color, she asked if I wanted tea, but she forgot to bring it. When the color was done, she quickly shampooed my hair--no scalp massage, etc. Then she trimmed about 1-inch off the bottom and little else, thus no bob and no volume. When she dried it, the color was as light or lighter than it had been. She charged me $100 for the color (which I could have done myself at home for $8), and $75 for the haircut, which ended up being a blunt cut trim (which I could have gotten at Supercuts for $20). Like the tea, she "forgot" to give me some hair color to touch up my roots. I wouldn't recommend this dead place to anybody and certainly not the stylist "SaraMya," who got rave reviews on Yelp when I checked, before I made the appt. It makes you wonder if the people or their BFF's are writing their reviews, rather than nonbiased customers. I was very disappointed that I wasted my time and money at this place with this "stylist." read more

I went to Bijoux to get my Jewfro dealt with by Yelly Brandon. She's professional and friendly in her demeanor with her clients, and handles razor cuts as comfortably as a pair of shears. I've now been going to her for more than a year. Highly rec'd. read more
