What a great experience at Changes! I called and got a same day appointment, and when the gal I was scheduled with ran behind schedule Char were kind enough to call and fit me into her schedule. She was so nice and helped me figure out what would work best for my hair and gave me ideas for future styles (aka what to do if I wanted to grow it out, different colors, etc!). The price was pretty good for the Bay Area also. Overall so happy with my entire experience and I will be returning for my next appointment! read more

Yes, Char is great. Flexible and eager to please and always accommodates my needs and requests.

I've been going to Tasha for over 4 years now and it's always a great experience. My hair looks the best it ever has & I get so many compliments thanks to Tasha's handiwork. All the ladies at the shop are great! Always a great vibe as well which is important to me. Since Tasha has been out for almost a year (due to ski accident), I've been seeing Laura - and she's AWESOME. read more

Love my Changes hair studio - the owner Tasha has been doing my hair for years...consistent, good prices, clean, fun. Laura takes quite a few walk-ins. Laid back, cool place to get your hair did. I recommend! read more

I really can't say enough about Char and her salon. My old stylist from another salon cancelled my appointment last minute and I called around town and Char was more than happy to squeeze me in on a Saturday afternoon! The salon is lovely and Char is patient, friendly and really listened to me as a client. It's obvious she loves what she does and my hair and hilites turned out even more amazing than I had hoped! Char is beyond talented and from now on, I won't trust my hair to anyone else but her and her salon! read more

Changes Hair Studio - Selfie - Hair Salons Near Me - Benicia, California

My experience: I visited your salon in person last Thursday. Monica recommended her mother, Rebecca for color. Left three messages with Rebecca and I never heard a word back. So, I contacted another salon. Pretty poor customer service. read more

I don't remember exactly how many years I've been getting my haircut by Monica...somewhere around 5 years. I used to salon hop but now I only trust one with my hair...Monica. She knows my hair and always gets it right. It's so easy to make an appointment with her especially through text which is my preferred method of communication. read more

Monica has got to be the greatest human to exist! She really knows about hair! Il be going back again and again! Thank you so much monica this new hair style has made my year! read more

Changes Hair Studio - Monica is beyond amazing! I am so blessed to know her! This new hair style is fantastic! I can't wait to show it off at work! - Hair Salons Near Me - Benicia, California

This hair salon is great if you want highlights...But unfortunately that's not always everything I want with my hair. The first time I got a cut it wasn't what I asked for but just a little trim, no side bangs like I asked. When I had her dye my hair from all the blonde highlights to brown there were parts of my hair missed and not dyed. ( I ended up dying my hair myself ) The second time I got a cut, I decided to go very short (I had long hair) and about 10 inches taken off. My hair was put in a pony and chopped... I wanted side bangs and lots of layers and what I got was what looked like a crooked A-line grown out. It's been 6 weeks and I am still trying to grow my hair out enough to go get it fixed. One side of my hair shows chopped layers and the other side none. The back of my hair is so uneven I have to excessively curl it inward to make it go as unnoticed as possible. As far as the bangs, I ended up fixing what she had done. Very disappointed. My first couple appointments for the highlights I thought I had finally found my hair salon. read more

So last week I went to Changes on a spur of the moment haircut. But more like a hair chop. I called in earlier in the day and Monica was more than happy to schedule me as her last client of the day. Upon arrival I'm greated by first name although I had never met her before. Definite plus. Monica sat me down and asked what I was looking for. I showed her a picture, voiced my concerns regarding my round face and an a line bob and she shared her ideas. I was willing to go with the chop off of about 10 inches. It definitely turned out awesome! I love my hair and I plan on going back to see Monica for all of my haircut needs! read more

World class customer service - Beautiful Ambiance - Amazing work. If you want great style, Go make an appointment with Monica today! Highlights & Style at a GREAT Benicia cost! Just WOW :) -Returning client read more

What a wonderful experience at Changes. I work with Char. I am new ( now, I guess not so new - 1 year) to Benicia. I moved here and left behind my hair stylist of 16 years in San Diego. It was heartbreaking to leave her and terrifying to try find a new stylist. I found Char on Yelp and couldn't be happier. Talk about accommodating! She is marvelous and works with my schedule. So pleasant and kind. My color is great and the cuts precise. You won't be sorry selecting Char for your stylist. read more

I wish I could post 10 stars for Char. She is talented, so kind, and she always listens! This sweet salon is a joy to visit. I'm so happy with Char and Changes that I asked my husband to become a client. read more

This is a great hair salon. I just moved back to town and was looking for a quality salon to atleast make me feel comfortable like they do in The City. Having thicker than normal hair and beings typical male, I am always a bit apprehensive of trying a new place. I was a walk in and that didn't seem to phase the lady in charge. The salon must be well recieved as it was busy, busy, busy. I had the sheer luck of Monica being my stylist. I am sure she could sense my nervous apprehension and walked me through, step by step, of what she had in mind for my hair style. Monica was professional and timely. The typical salon banter was soothing to me as I was timid to be around soo many beautiful women! I was expecting double the price for the hair cut as I would expect at any salon in The City, but was pleasantly surprised that i was only spying $30 for a quality hair style and shampoo. Overall, quality craftmanship, great prices, gorgeous women(especially Monica,Hot!), lively atmosphere, and accepts walk in. read more

I am extremely disappointed with this place. I have called trying to make an appointment for haircut. It went to the answering machine so I left a message asking them to call back. No one returned my call for more than a day. I called again the next day and someone answered. When I asked for any available time, she said she had to shampoo hair for a client and will call me later. I waited and waited but still no one called to set an appointment for me. If they don't accept new clients they should just say so. Why they keep letting calls go to answering machine and said "your call is very important". I don't think they really think clients are important. Perhaps they only restrict to old clients. read more

I had an ambrey done for the first time. Monica was my hair dresser. She was great. She helped me figure out what exactly I wanted to do with my hair, made some corrections so my hair would look nice, and she carries a good conversation (I find this important). This small salon was just what I was looking for. read more

i have been looking for years for a good hairdresser and i finally found one....her name is Rebecca and she is truly amazing.....best hair cut and highlight i have ever had.....everytime she does my hair i feel beautiful and sexy........and not to say but i have been spoiled living in France for 30 years with amazing hairdresser and finally found someone that can match up...... if you need help with your hair her cell number is 707 484 6202 read more

Monica is wonderful! She got me in right away for a cut (which needed fixing) and color. She really listened to my concerns about my hair. First, I have always had trouble with dye soaking into my skin at my hairline -- she made SURE that didn't happen, and she's colored my hair twice now. She also added really pretty highlights and long bangs per my request this last cut -- and the result is great! Just what I wanted, even though I wasn't quite sure what I wanted when she started. Now THAT is a professional! She is super-competent, but also friendly and funny -- a really lovely person. The salon is spotless and pretty and relaxing, and the price is right, too! Give Changes a try -- you won't regret it! read more
