You know when you have that friend (or two) who have incredible hair? Like you're anywhere and they…read morejust look great? I have two friends who are blessed and finally asked them and they both said Robertson Roe. The first time I went I booked online which was simple and worked with my schedule, now I usually book when I leave because it's easy and super convenient. Also Jamie who is their receptionist is so cool, really engaging and a very genuinely kind person. I see Mia who is talented and a master of all things, also she is really funny. The salon has a great aesthetic . I've been there when every chair is filled and people are getting cuts, colors and all things under the Sun. I've also been the first one there and it's just three people having a conversation about life. Salons are such a vibe, you always leave looking and feeling good. You can talk with anyone and it's just a great place. It's also so nice to be back to a "normal" place in this world after the pandemic. My son also goes here for his cuts and even though he is 14 they treat him as an adult, that is appreciated by him and me. The stylists here are excellent. Trust. The salon is right between LaHa and Rustic, street parking is easy and convenient. Wait. Maybe I shouldn't leave such a good review, then all the appointments will be taken... nah. Give them a call you won't be disappointed.

I moved to Marin County a year ago and didn't know any any salons around here so I decided to go to…read moreMane Lounge for haircut and hair coloring. First of all, the place is so clean and nice and follows the Covid-19 safety protocols. Second of all, the personnel are very friendly. Susana was my stylist and I'm absolutely in love with her work. She's very nice and professional. Lastly, the price is very reasonable. They don't have a fixed price for all services for everyone. They charge you based on the length of your hair and what you want to do with your hair. I for sure come back here again and I definitely recommend this place!

The salon just changed names in the last week and is now Cinder and Blume. I'll never go back after…read morethe experience I had today @manelounge and @katieclaytonhair I had booked an appt last Saturday for a toner and hair cut appt and confirmed with Katie twice via text. The haircut was $65 and the toner appt including a blowout was $90. I walk in today a few min before my appointment and wait up front for Katie. I sit in the chair and we talk about the haircut and I provide photos and she goes back to mix up toner which took probably 10 minutes. It seemed odd that she did not wash my hair and put the toner on dry hair but I assumed she knew what she was doing. I'd say just minutes into putting this toner on only the blonde pieces of my hair and not all over, the front desk person tells her at 12:15pm that someone else is there for an appt. I'm literally in the middle of talking and Katie walks away to go see this other client. When she gets back she says nothing at all so we sit in silence while she continues to put toner on my hair. After she's done, she clips it up in a hair clip and never brushes it through like other salons and tells me she forgot and needs to wash this other persons hair quickly and tells me to sit in the back on a plywood bench that is uncomfortable by the way for 20 minutes. I assume it's just a wash appt, but no she then starts cutting this persons hair as I wait. At about 23 minutes into my toner she comes over and tells me to go get it washed at the bowl but all she does is rinse it with cold water and then hot. She hands me a towel and tells me to go sit at the bench again. 40 mins later she waves at me after she's cut, dried and styled this other woman's hair. She just says, sorry I forgot she was booked. At that point I'm fuming, all of the stylists have seen me just sit in the back this whole time. No one offered me water like the other clients fyi. I literally told her I was upset and she took this other person and left me to wait. I told her my hair literally looked black at this point it's been an hour and almost 20 minutes with this toner and she never washed it out that my hair is so dark, Katie just says she's sorry but didn't know why I was mad, she was also helping me at the same time that she did this other person. I tell her that she never asked if it was ok to make me wait and that I'm also a client and that was bullshit. She then tells me my hair was washed earlier and you don't wash toner out. I told her she never washed my hair and she put this toner on my hair dry. She apparently forgot that she did that. I asked for a manager but she works for herself. She just says she won't charge me for the toner. She then cuts my hair in less than 10 minutes and I ask before she's even done what she's doing as we talked about and looked at photos of short hair. She says she forgot and now has to start the cut over. This second time was choppy. She then charged me $70 when a hair cut is $65. And when I got home I had chunks of hair 2 inches too long that I had to take scissors to even out my hair. On top of that the toner made my hair ashy and it's a grey/ green looking brown. It's so dark it's not even funny. I even tipped her 20% and I shouldn't have. And she didn't cut the front or add a layer in the back like we talked about it was just a choppy straight across cut in like 5 minutes time. Plus I left with soaking wet hair and she charged me for a full hair cut service which would include a blowout!!! This other person that walked in at 12:15 was more important and I didn't even matter to her. This was my 4th time seeing her and my last. Run the other direction. She doesn't care about you unfortunately. And the prices on the website on her instagram page are not what she charges you in person, beware. Last time I got partial highlights and a toner it was $25 more and she used 2 bottles of toner on my hair (it was not long hair mind you) and justified why the price was higher than quoted. I can tell you my highlights were silvery grey in the front and I knew the 2 bottles of toner were to hide her mistake. I could literally see silver in my hair the day I came home from the salon. I've been getting highlights since I was a teenager, I've never had 2 bottles of toner in my hair at one time and toner is usually applied in my experience on clean, wet hair and left on for 10 minutes and combed through and monitored and then rinsed QUICKLY so the hair isn't ashy. I wish she had done better, I really do. I'm sad I have to go to work like this.

I welcome this change as Marin Beauty was not meeting my needs however Sonja certainly was and still is! I LOVE Studio 861! It's calm, soothing, open, airy, and welcoming; a little oasis on the quaint Grant Street. This salon fits Sonja's amazing personality and hair skills like a glove! Here are the reasons I am a Sonja Loyalist: -She's incredibly thorough, punctual, fair priced, open minded, into keeping up with current trends and styles through continued education and hair seminars. -She's flexible: Sonja has keys to the salon and can come in early and on Mondays, by appointment. -She takes walk-ins -She cares! She has zero ego and will listen to everything you want and need. What I like even more is that she will listen, be open minded but will also gently give her advice and expertise to give you your best look. Another reason to make an appointment immediately: -Sonja has a special going on for first time clients! Receive 25% off your 1st visit! You have nothing to lose, except gray hair, roots and dead ends! ;-) Thank you, Sonja!!

I'm fairly new in town, and I emailed Le Cut hoping to schedule an appointment, stating that I…read morewould prefer evenings or weekends. Jill responded later that same day, saying that only one person works Saturdays, and she just "does her regulars. Most of us don't work much after five except for our regulars. Thank you so much for reaching out to us." I thought it was odd that she didn't offer any daytime appointments. I replied asking if any hair stylists are available on a weekday during working hours, but I did not receive any response. So I presume this means that they are fully booked and are not taking new clients at this time. A response confirming this would have been helpful. So I guess don't bother contacting Le Cut unless you are already a lucky "regular!"
