I had my hair blow dried almost everyday during my stay at Wiltower, I always came out satisfied. Even my daughter had a nice hair color with the promo they had it was a steal! Thank you for making my life easier during my vacation. It was a horrible thought not have great hair on your vacation, you made my everyday look Instagrammable!

I learned that this is where many of the greats in the metro (who now have their own salons) started and got their training. They're very systematic about it so you can trust the people from here. There are several branches but do try to go for the Katipunan branch, a longstanding salon in the area with super loyal longtime clients. While its interiors look kind of dated, the pleasant staff here will make you not even care about that haha. Look for Gary, the head stylist & trainer at the salon, whom you can easily consult with for the look and vibe that you want. He's a character but he's very warm and professional with many years of experience and training under his belt. You can also hire him and his team for special hair & makeup services, even out of town. They're cool. Bonus: This branch is usually well-stocked with salon brand shampoos, conditioners, and styling products like Davines and Bed Head.

Our cut and color was done by Ivan Miranda and we absolutely love what he did to our hair. Ivan knows his stuff and you won't go wrong getting him as your hair stylist. Staff is friendly and accommodating. Their services are moderately-priced too, so you won't feel like you're spending a lot on hair care. Will definitely come back here.

I'm at the age where my FB feed has less party photos, and more ultrasounds and wedding pictures…read more This year, I've been to no less than three weddings, and because they were weddings of people I am close to, my usual wash-and-wear hair routine just wouldn't cut it. Luckily, Status Salon in Katipunan has really competent stylists who aren't afraid to rise to the challenge that is my long, curly hair. A lot of hair salons have stylists that aren't used to styling curly hair, so it's refreshing that the staff at Status blow dried and styled my hair without commenting if it was 'natural' or whatever. Each time I've had my hair done at Status, I've come out feeling pretty, and happy with the outcome. Good job!

I don't know why, but for some reason, a lot of people always mistake me for a lesbian. If I would…read moreget 1000 pesos every time someone thinks that I am a butch lesbian, I would be so rich right now. To be honest, I don't feel offended every time someone would think that I am, but it would be so much better if people would stop putting labels on me just because of the way I look (#TRUTH). Anyways, I went to STATUS hair salon in Katipunan to fix my hair problems. Growing out your hair is a totally difficult and awkward process and I needed help to style it so that people could finally stop telling me that I look like a freaking lesbian. Once I got there, I was immediately greeted by the friendly stylists. The girl who was staying at the counter told me that they have a promo for all Ateneo students. Students would get 50% (or 70%; I don't remember) discount on their hair cut. As I sat down the chair, the stylist asked me what style I wanted. He also gave suggestions to fix my hair issues. They did not disappoint me! After I got my hair cut, they also told me that they sell products like mousse and hair spray to maintain my hair's shape and volume.

Second, the coloring job was not done well - the color of my hair has dark and light spots. Last, when they colored my roots, they did a terrible job that there was a section of my hair with the roots uncolored. They had to redo it and I ended up in there for 3 hours. My hair obviously dried up and is currently a mess.

Hair2Share is one of the year long products of Kythe-Ateneo. It involves snipping off at least 10…read moreinches of your hair (I think the extra 2 inches are needed to allow for split ends and other hair problems) and donating them to Kythe-Ateneo to make wigs for their sector - pediatric patients with chronic illnesses - who may have lost their hair to treatments like chemotherapy. The other guidelines about the hair e.g. should be straight and one solid color can be inquired about on Kythe-Ateneo's page. Every year, it's celebrated in the Ateneo community with one big week long event called Kythe Week where different salons agree to partner up and cut people's hair for free. There's an equivalent too for the boys (and girls with short hair) called Be Brave Get Shaved (BBGS) where you shave your hair in solidarity with the kids, but that hair doesn't go into making the wigs. I've been getting my head shaved for the past 2 years on Kythe Week, and it's so fulfilling, especially when I get to interact with the kids, explain to them why I did it, and see their faces light up and have them rub my newly bald head! It's gained much popularity in recent years, and this year is the first time where you can just go to Kythe-Ateneo's partner salons to snip off and donate your hair, and they send it to Kythe-Ateneo for you!
