One of the worst salon experiences. Here are the lowlights:…read more 1. Cute salon dogs but one bit my finger (broke skin). Perhaps not the best salon dog. 2. Asked for highlights and a dramatic shift lighter. Left with nearly same color as before (my daughter did not even notice a change when I picked her up). Went with a picture and we fully discussed beforehand. 3. One stylist who was helping iron for the Brazilian blowout was pulling so hard I could feel hairs breaking as he was working. There are so many broken hairs sticking straight up now I look like I got electrocuted. 4. Asked for some face framing pieces and they are so choppy and unblended. 5. With my requests at time of booking (cut, highlights, and a smoothing treatment), I would have hoped to be scheduled with someone with a bit more experience. To her credit, owner offered to fix color in a couple weeks but so much went wrong this first trip I thanked her and told her we are not a good fit. Would not recommend for cut, highlights or smoothing treatments. UPDATE: a few hours later I noticed dye/toner was left on my ear. Picture is after I had already wiped some off. UPDATE 2: For $800, I am glad I gave the salon a learning experience. SMH.

It's really a special treat to see beautiful arts hanging on the wall of a local Bamboo Hair + Body. The location is convenient, right off Main Street of down town Half Moon Bay. I love the vibrant colors of her paintings. My photos do not reflect how unbelievable her creativity and her color work of her arts. I highly recommend to come and see her paintings with your own eyes. I appreciate her nature capture in still arts. I feel happy and inspired looking at her beautiful bright colorful paintings. Her creation is unique, special and rare! Her arts, especially those with the hummingbirds inspire me to love, to hope, and to be happy and creative. Her acrylic paintings on canvas, and Fence Chunks from recycled wood, which hang on walls, fences, gates and decks are marvelous! Additional info on shows of Ellen Silva: https://www.ellensilva.com/art-showsexhibits.html Check out the Fence Chunk Gallery: https://www.ellensilva.com/gallery-fence-chunks.html and the Commission a Chunk page: https://www.ellensilva.com/commissions-fence-chunks.html Come to check it out in person if you are near by. You will make your eyes super please! And to support a local artist! Perhaps, to get a stylist to do your hair and enjoy the beautiful art work on the wall!
