Gracy is an absolute blessing. This salon is right down the street from me, I decided to submit a request and I was matched with Gracy. I cannot express how great my experiences have been. 1st of all, she absolutely slays every haircut, it's like watching literal magic. 2nd of all, her head messages while washing are amazing. She is very knowledgeable and informative. She listens to what you want and what your hair goals are. She is upfront in explaining if something may take more time, color etc. I also enjoy talking to her every-time I am there. I truly cannot recommend her enough. My last appointment, she created the prettiest color, it came out better than my inspo pic. The salon is nice and has a coffee shop right next to it. You can order coffee or food while you're getting your hair done and they will bring it to you. read more

I live nearby and was on a walk with my baby, who is six months old, and in my desperation for help with my 6-month-postpartum hair (extreme hair loss + inches of dead, snaggly hair), I popped in to see if I could make an appointment. To my pleasant surprise, Ashley said her assistant Addie could take me then and there and my baby could hang out in her stroller. Now this next part is important: I have very curly hair. Addie did an AMAZING job, better than most haircuts (and I'm always procrastinating and dreading cuts and especially new stylists because with curly hair it can go south pretty quickly) but the way she layered and trimmed it left me looking like I had more hair than what I walked in with. So all of this to say, I'll be coming here exclusively now and highly recommend. I texted all my neighbors and turns out they already are regulars here! read more

Tara Eldridge is the best!! Excellent service, always funny and welcoming. Can do any cut, color, etc.

Go to Tara! I've been seeing her for a few years now and even followed her from her previous salon. She knows exactly what to do. During my first appointment, I mentioned that I wanted to freshen up my copper hair and no one had been able to make the color last. I hardly come in with inspiration pics, I just let her have control and it comes out amazing. I've had countless people stop me in public to ask about my color read more

Natalie did a great job at maneuvering around my squirming, head-turning 4 year-old. Not only was she fast, but she understood what we wanted and executed it perfectly! Cutting kids' hair is a challenge, especially a squirmy little boy, but Natalie was able to manage around the challenge and did an amazing job! We will definitely be back! read more

I've been coming to Yoshi for blonde highlights for over a year. She's amazing and always gets my hair the way I like it.

went to get highlights at this salon when I saw a stylist post about her promotions for the month of September. The salon is super nice and is next to a coffee shop that brings food and drinks to you when you're getting your hair done which was really nice. My stylist Charlee was amazing and so nice! I loved my hair and she is definitely someone you should book for your next hair service! :) read more

Prior to my hair appointment I sent Natalie several photos so she was able to check out the condition and color in my hair. I was impressed with Natalie's willingness and input for this additional consult, to achieve the results I desired. The appointment went very well. Natalie is a talented stylist/colorist. I am very pleased. read more

This is truly a gem of a salon I'm am so happy I found it! When my prior stylist of over 4 years told me she was moving up north, I was devastated at the thought of finding a new salon. Enter Ashley, the owner of Blonden and my stylist :) she is wonderful and so so easy to talk to or just hang out with while in her chair. It's like going to get your hair done by a friend every time! I typically get alternating full and partial hi lights with cut about every 8-9 weeks. She always makes me leave the salon feeling my best. She is easy to get ahold of; super accommodating for booking appointments and I love that she has a mentoring program for newer stylists to be her assistant and then grow to eventually take their own clients. Oh the best part? She is very reasonably priced. The salon itself is easy to get to and parking is simple with a small lot or ample street parking (that is free!!!!!) There is also a super cute coffee/smoothie shop next door where you can order from the chair and they will bring it to you. Honestly I can't say enough great things about this spot and I only hope her business continues to thrive so she never leaves and can keep doing my hair forever :) read more

Ashley and the team at Blonden are incredible! I love how neighborhood centric the salon is and have had amazing results with my hair. Very healthy and color lasts! I've been going to Ashley for almost two years now and am very happy with the color and cut she provides and the service. The location is prime for Serra Mesa and Ashley is so connected in the community - she has all the referrals and is excellent and connecting everyone in. A local salon with high quality and a relaxing and elevated environment is just what our community needs! We need more gems like this! The quality is excellent. read more

The owner offered me an appt however wanted me to remove a review that the phone number was out of service that I called to book an appt . I was happy to do so when she advised me she was traveling and that's why my call could not go thru. Then she cancelled my appt however I have an email from her offering me the appt and the text asking me to remove the review. Yelp forces you to choose a rating so I did so as the phone said it was out of order. I wasn't trying to hurt her business but now I see her business practices are reviews over customers. I removed that review. And she removed my appt. Not sure why Ashley but clearly you had an opening when you emailed me to book 1pm Sunday. read more

If you want blonde then you want Ashley! I found it time for me to move on from my previous hair colorist that I had been seeing for about 5 years and it's so overwhelming to start over. I found Ashley after doing SO much research on the best blonde colorist in San Diego and she lives up to everything!! She was very welcoming from the start and took the time to talk about what my blonde goals were. I'm trying to achieve the icy blonde look and she is very honest with the process. She genuinely cares about the health of your hair. She won't just color it to color it. It's an art for her. She is extremely efficient and knows exactly what she's doing. My hair turned out phenomenal and she brought my confidence back!! She takes great pride in her work, the salon and colleagues. The salon is so chic and a comfortable space to be in for 3 hours! I am OVER THE MOON HAPPY that I found Ashley and Blonden Salon!! Love at first color!! read more

Cyndi has cut my hair for years and I have followed her to several different locations. She does a great cut and is a nice person! When I had highlights, she helped me transition to not having color any more. It always looked natural and you couldn't see lines as it grew out. That is talent! read more

I have been seeing Ashley since 2014, when I tell you choosing a hairstylist is like a marriage, it really is! She is always so accommodating, when I choose to change colors or even change my extensions at the drop of hat... no matter what I want, she is always there. A true hair partner in crime! I went from blonde to brown, and my hair is wonderful no matter the color! Even when she is not available, I have seen Casey is also great! Awesome place to go! #blondensalonforlife read more

I needed my hair done relatively quickly for a new job and received a call back quickly and set up an appointment the same week! (Super impressive) Casey did a color correction on my yellowish hair-I am back to my natural blonde color and feel like a movie star! Bonus that she is super cool and personable. The salon is in a centralized location with easy parking and an amazing coffee shop next door that you can order from in the salon. Pricing was reasonable and I am looking forward to my next appointment. Every time I look in the mirror I feel like I have myself back! read more

Natalie did such a great job with my haircut, I've finally found someone i would like for all my future haircuts! I don't know anything about hair, and don't have any particular preferences so i left most of the decisions up to Natalie and the results are perfect. She's so sweet and really makes me feel at home, thanks for the great service read more

I went to Monica for color correction and now haircut. I have a blonde pixie and she is pro with color (improved my color situation to better than I thought possible) and gave me a great cut. I will definitely be coming back. read more

Cyndi has cut and colored my hair for over 10 years. I would follow her to any salon she moves to. She's so good at what she does and she's so enjoyable to be with. I look forward to my appointment with her every six weeks. read more

I decided I needed a change, and wanted to color my hair. I have a medium/light brown hair, and have darkened it in the past but have never lightened it. I decided that I wanted a full set of highlights... I was researching this to find a good colorist. Having never bleached/lightened my hair in the past, I knew I would be more comfortable with someone who knew what they were doing.... I found Ashley on Yelp, and all the reviews seemed to say she usually dealt with blondes, etc etc. That was all I needed so I made an appointment for the following day. I got there 15 minutes early and she was sitting at the entrance when I walked in the door, waiting for me, so that was easy! I immediately liked her, as she was welcoming and bubbly. I sat in the chair and told her I wanted highlights. She asked me a few questions, trying to read me, and decided that I wanted a more drastic change...which I did. Well! An hour later after washing and rinsing my hair, even though it was wet, I could see how light it was! She turned me away from the mirror to blow dry, and when I spun back...well, I was a dark blonde. I LOVE IT. Holy cr*p. Who would have thought? I KNOW the wrong person would have made my hair different shades of blonde, or do huge chunks of blonde, or be brassy, or orange, or...well, ugly. But no. It's perfect! It's even all over, and for some reason it looks like my hair is supposed to be this color. It took me a while to adjust. I couldn't stop giggling at my reflection, it was so different from what I was used to. I love it. I found my new hairdresser. And I might even go lighter next time.... :D read more

Fast, honest, and lovely to talk to. Ashley does blonde right. Looking for someone new can be a bit overwhelming. I saw other reviews and she lives up to the five stars. She's great at cuts too. She asked questions and discussed a plan ahead of time. She's a keeper. I'm really looking forward to going back. read more

Cyndi has been my go to for years! She is highly educated in her field and is very accommodating to your needs. Not only does she assure you leave looking your best, she is a delight to spend time with while in the chair. read more

I am so excited to post this review! I just saw Ashley yesterday for my second appointment (the first one was 6 months ago and I just got too lazy to post one then). She is sooooo sweet, very easy to talk to and hangout with, and not to mention a damn QUEEN when it comes to coloring hair!!!! I have been transitioning more and more blonde over the past few years and kept hesitantly staying with the balayage that's far from my roots knowing that I'm not good at going back consistently. When I saw her 6 months ago, she did SUCH a great job touching up my usual balayage that I decided to commit to more blonde read more

ONCE again, Ashley simply amazes. A B S O L U T E perfection and satisfaction when it comes to her. She told me about the beaded extensions last year when I first discovered Haircare by Ashley via Yelp. And here I am one year later, Ashley put in my SECOND set of extensions today! SO happy with them, I cannot express how beautiful, confident, and thrilled I am to have these. She did an amazing job blending and making them look so incredibly natural - I get compliments on the reg!! By FAR the best hairstylist alive!! Can't wait to get my hair done by her for the Marine Corps Ball in 3 weeks!! EEKS! read more

An update based on the owner's answer who obviously tries to self -promote her business neglecting the fact that Yelp is supposed to serve us, the customers. Instead of calling me "desperate" and "poor" as in not being able to afford the service, the owner should try to better her business. I assume she observes every posted comment and tries to "clean" up her review page to lure more customers. If Yelp stays true to itself and it's values, such answers should be flagged. Self-promotion and wrongful display of a customer to "save the business" is sad. read more

I shopped around to find the best hairstylist as far as money and expertise for hair extensions. I found Ashley and she was awesome to explain every detail to me, good and bad. I have short, fine hair and she was realistic with me in what we could accomplish. Everything was so quick as she was a pro in the installation and made sure I had everything I needed to take care of them. It was a night and day difference. I'd highly recommend her if you're looking for extensions or even just a color/highlight. read more

Ashley is a miracle worker! I came into her salon in deep need of a hair makeover and she delivered. Blondes: You can trust your hair in her hands! Ever since moving to San Diego I've been desperate to find a new dependable stylist. I'm so happy to say that I've found Ashley! She knows how to perfectly blend highlight/lowlights for natural looking blonde. I trust that Ashley will deliver every haircut and keep my hair looking beautiful. Not only was it colored perfectly, she took just enough off in length to freshen my look. She also gave me great advise for the in-between cut/color care. The location is great, located in Mission Valley in a small shopping/restaurant center. You could easily make a nice afternoon of your salon visit. (I loved the chocolate croissant I had while waiting for my color to set from the European cafe just a few storefronts away!) I would highly recommend getting any hair styled by Ashley! If you were like me, jumping from Groupon to Groupon, you will be so relieved to have finally found someone you can trust with your hair. :) read more
