Svava is the greatest! Shop is in the middle of Cedros shopping area so if you feel the need to shop it is a fun stroll. The shop owner and hair artists are all "shear" perfection when it comes to the best in color, cuts, and design. read more

I naturally have very thick, poofy, tangles easy -kind of hair. Before I met Daniel Rosati my hair looked just as it sounds and I rarely wore it down because it was so difficult to manage. In addition, because of my natural volume everyone who cut my hair prior to Daniel would either not layer it or layer it entirely wrong because of the "poof". Thanks to Daniel's expertise with keratin treatments, his artistic eye (knowing the right color or colors to use to color my hair for my skin tone), and willingness to find ways to tame the cowlick in the front of my head that previously made it impossible for me to wear edgy, straight bangs, I am walking around with a new head of hair. For anyone who has never had a keratin done and has thicker, unmanageable hair, it will literally change your life. It used to take me at least an hour and a half to blow dry and straighten my hair and my hair would end up dry and frizzy as a result of all the heat. I would constantly wear my hair in a bun because I could not deal with the mess. Now, with the keratin in place, I can hop out of the shower, run a brush through my hair (and much easier than before, as I no longer hit a tangle every two inches), and my hair essentially air dries straight. I only need to spend five minutes going over my hair with a straightener in the morning. The other thing that has made a world of difference is the hair color line Daniel uses on my hair. Not only is it ammonia free, but it has an oil-delivery system (I did the research: http://www.lorealprofessionnel.com/hair-colour/inoa/ammonia-free-hair-colour-inoa) that leaves your hair feeling moisturized. I love walking out of the salon with that feeling of healthy, safely colored hair and a chic haircut to boot. Daniel is an artist through and through -- a master of his craft. https://www.danielrosatihair.com/about read more

I was looking for a new hair stylist and stumbled across this place from the app Nextdoor. The prices are insane! Insane food. So fast and efficient. I highly recommend. read more

I wanted to schedule an appointment with Kristen as she had good reviews on Yelp. I texted the number for her on their website. I didn't hear anything so I called their main number and left a message and then sent an email. That was weeks ago and I haven't heard a thing. Is this place open? read more

Went back to the curl magician, Kristen at Deco. Kristen is the best. If you have curly hair, trust that Kristen will take care of you. Some hair artists leave you with a shelf or dog ear because they really don't know how to cut curls. Kristen leaves you with the most amazing graduated flow of curls and knows how to give curls life. read more

Ask for Heather she is the best!!! I have been going to Heather on and off for years due to living in different cities, but we're finally in the same city again and I couldn't be happier! She is the only hairdresser I have ever fully trusted. I never have to worry about a bad haircut from her. Instead of telling Heather exactly what I want as I do with other hairdressers, I ask her opinion of what would look good. This has never failed me. She's been doing hair forever, and she knows what she's doing! read more

I've been going to Randy for quite some time and I love that he knows color so well, but his haircuts are also amazing. He's always staying on top of the latest trends. He has a knack for listening to his clients and I always feel good walking out of his salon! read more

I love Deco Hair Studio and I love Randy. He gives me beautiful cuts and color that works with my hair texture and lifestyle at a price that doesn't break the bank. He's fun and friendly an runs a lovely shop. In the almost 10 years I've been seeing him, Randy has done nearly everything to my hair, from highlights to pink and purple streaks to all over color. He's cut in bangs and helped me grown them out, done countless beautiful long cuts, both layered and blunt, and even lopped off 12" of hair into a fun bob when I decided to go short. No matter what I'm looking for, I trust him to help me find the perfect style. And even with all of that, possibly my favorite part is how nicely his cuts grow out. I regularly have to remind myself to get a cut, because months later they still look fresh. I actually moved to SF three years ago, and while there are lots of great stylists here, I keep flying down to see Randy; he's just that good. read more

Kristen is the ONLY person I ever want to work with after years of trying to find someone who would know what to do with my curls and wavy hair. I am so grateful to have found her and this salon! read more

I've had my hair done by Garrett Ota at Deco Hair Studios for years. What I love is that in the early years I would ask for a cut or color and when I walked out it was picture perfect. Now I trust him so much that I've given him complete control of my hair styles and colors and I've never been happier! I love the fact that when he styles my hair, he asks what my plans are for the day and checks the weather to see what style will hold up best for the day. No matter where I go when I leave the salon after an appointment, people comment on my look and it feels great!!! Garrett is also a local guy, a husband and a father. read more

I absolutely love Deco Hair Salon and Kristen. I have been going to Kristen at Deco Hair Salon for over 15 years. Conveniently located with plenty of free parking, Deco has been really good to me over the many years, and Kristen is one of the most talented and amazing stylists and salon artists in the Southland. I give five stars for Deco Hair Salon and Kristen. read more

I have been going to Deco for years. I love my stylist Randy. I like the vibe of the salon. Parking is easy and the nearby shops are great to peruse after my cut and color. read more

This review is long overdue. Kristen is the best hair stylist for curly, wavy, hard to manage hair. My thick hair can be difficult to manage and, while I've found other competent stylists, Kristen is the master at creating a hair cut that you can easily recreate at home. She really listened to my concerns. And my whole experience at the Deco Hair Studio was exceptional. Lovely, lovely people work there. read more

Kristen does an impeccable job with my color, the cut is on point by curls look fabulous and the services is outstanding not to mention I don't think the courtyard could be anymore adorable. read more

Go see Kevin, Call Kevin, The best around combines old school knowledge with a modern twist. He always amazes me.

Mina Whang at Deco is a total godsend! This woman is a creative genius. I seriously have had people constantly telling me, completely spontaneously without any prompting from me, that my hair color is amazing. She has been doing my hair for years. Finally finally finally I don't have to keep moving around trying to find someone that "gets" my hair. She cuts its perfect, colors it perfect and I highly totally absolutely recommend her!!! read more

Kristen helped me love my hair again! She gave me the best cut I've had in ten years. You know the feeling when you can't wait to wash and style it again because the length and layers have been expertly cut? This is the feeling I've been missing for so long! Kristen took her time and made sure I was completely satisfied before I left her chair. This was the best salon experience I've had in California. Thanks a million! read more

Thank you Randy. Great first hair cut! Very unpretentious and easy-to-feel-good-in salon.

Kristin is a curly hair specialist. I've gone other places and no one compares to her great cuts. It is well worth the price.

I have VERY coarse and VERY thick dark wavy hair, which is rather unruly and frizzy. When it's straightened and styled, it looks great. When I let it dry on its own, 'Cousin It' comes to mind. After many years of bad at-home-dyes and bad stylists, I came to Kristen Tucker with some pretty damaged hair. It was darker than my original color and had illogical layers from bad cuts. She immediately set up a plan to get rid of my inky hair and bring it back to its natural color and lustre over a period of sessions. 'Pulling color' in one session is not healthy and she refused to compromise the integrity of my hair. I stuck with her and I was sooooo glad I did. Even when I was pushing 7 weeks in between cuts, it still layed and looked beautiful and natural. I had some financial issues at one point and had to cut my splurges for one year, which my haircuts with Kristen were included. Oh dear, it was not worth it by any means. I basically came back to her one year later with damaged hair again. For her level of hair care and experience, her prices are comparable to many other stylists in the San Diego area for a dcut and color. Last but not least, she's an absolute hoot to hang with and shoot the shinny with. It's always a form of therapy when I go to her. read more

Kristen Tucker is pure MAGIC with hair! I came to her 10 years ago with the worst hair cut I've ever had. It seems that most hair stylist's have no idea how to cut and style curly/wavy hair. I came to her in tears and I left feeling beautiful again. She is a curly hair specialist and is a master at what she does. I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants to love their curly/wavy hair. She can transform you into a beautiful hair Diva! I can not say enough about her :) read more

Garrett is top notch! He has been cutting my hair for a couple years and has never let me down. I cant say that about the other place !!!! .... He really knows his stuff and has a great personality too ... Marty read more

Laura has been doing my hair for 10 years and I am never disappointed. I get compliments on the color even when I am really needing a touch-up. read more

I highly recommend Mina at Deco. Now that she's cutting mine and my two boys hair, we all look fabulous. Thank you Mina for making our hair look so good! read more

Kristen Tucker is a fabulous stylist!! I highly recommend her for cut and color. Us "Curly Girls" suffer and we need someone that understands our hair type, texture, etc. Kristen encourages her clients to accept their curls, love what they have and how to style it at home! She teaches how to cleanse, condition, and style our hair. And I love how my hair feels after each color session, it is soft and healthy, not traumatized from the coloring process. Other salons butcher my hair with their rough treatment, but not Kristen! She says "our curls should be treated like fine cashmere." Anyone that is scared or nervous about trying a new stylist, fear not!! Go to her and you will be so thankful to have found her. read more

I've been visiting Kristen @ Deco every four weeks since April 2019, and I can't sufficiently express my gratitude for or amazement at her skill!! I turned to Kristen after a terribly botched perm, which had left my naturally wavy hair variably scorched. The Bride of Frankenstein had nothing on me: from root to end, my hair was electric. A lot could have gone wrong trying to grow out this mess and doing my four-week color to cover my gray, but thanks to Kris, not only did none of that bad stuff happen, but my hair looks absolutely spectacular (if I say so myself). The texture is healing beautifully, the cut is very flattering, and the organic color is rich and lasting. Kris is not only an expert in all things hair, she is also a warm and funny person. And the location of Deco (on Cedros in Solana Beach) is fabulous -- I've never had a problem with parking, and all of the boutiques and eateries are invitations to make my salon appointment also a shopping and dining adventure. read more

A friend recommended Kevin for a hair cut. I wanted something complety new. He listened, offered suggestions, and expertly went to work. I loved his suggestions and how my hair turned out. I live in Northern California and will be seeing him again in six week. Thrilled. read more

Linda Olson has been coloring and cutting my hair for 15 + years. Not only is she a master with color , her hair cuts never seem to impress me. I give her full reign over my hair. I just sit in her chair and let her create her magic. If you're looking for someone who knows what they are doing with hair, look no further, Linda Olson is the hair stylist you've been looking for. read more

I have been getting my hair cut by Mina at Deco's and I love it every time! She is thorough yet efficient, friendly but not too chatty and my hair consistently looks great, whether I go in for a trim or for a new style. Her cuts are easy to style and replicate the looks at home too. I definitely recommend her to everyone who needs a cut. read more

Randy @ Deco has been coloring my hair for years. He is confident and knows just what to do so I can relax and enjoy a good gossip magazine. When he highlights my hair it is always close to the scalp and he is always on time,which makes it easier to sneek away from work and get my hair done on lunch break! read more

Debra Gallagher is AMAZING!!! She just moved back from Boston and is now stationed at Deco Hair Studio. Her expertise with color and styling is flawless. Her prices are great and newcomers recieve a discount! I know how difficult it is to place your trust in someone new but you will not be disappointed. She is a true professional and not to be missed! read more

Kristin Tucker is an amazing stylist! I have wavy/curly hair and spent years searching for a stylist in San Diego that knew how to cut my hair and I subsequently experienced many bad haircuts. Once I found Kristin, my hair has never looked better! I've had her cut my hair for the past 3 years now and EVERY haircut has looked amazing! My curls have lots of body and styling has been a breeze. Kristin recommended the right Diva Curl products to enhance my curls and now I have wonderful wash-and-go, low maintenance hair! I highly recommend anyone with straight, wavy or curly hair to experience Kristin's haircuts! read more

Kristen saved my hair over 14 years ago. I called Deco after a stylist in Del Mar ruined my hair with continual bleaching. I had no idea what she had in that mixing bowl of hers but after 1 year my hair was done - fried and breaking off. This stylist kept telling me it was the hard water here in Solana Beach - yah right. Anyway Kristen was a godsend and nurtured my hair back to health which took a good 6 months. This was back in April of 2001. Kristen is professional, knowledgeable and a hoot to hang with. My worst nightmare will be when she hangs up her color books and her scissors. LOVE love you Kristen read more

Thom Birkenstock has been doing my hair for years and i thought i might write a review on here saying i LOVE my hair, im blond natural curly hair,he is an expert with it s cut and care as he has it himself; love the salon. Very mellow space to hang out in while getting 5 star service in the heart of Cedros' design district. try him u wont b sorry!.. read more

This is a really nice salon. I went here as a walk-in. I didn't know anyone. I walked in and Garrett, one of the stylists, greeted me immediately. He was so kind. He was leaving for the day and couldn't take me, but he asked his colleague Laura if she could cut my hair, and she said Yes. She was finishing up her last client and said to come back in 20 minutes, which I did. Laura was SO NICE. She is really kind, funny, and down to earth. I had not had a hair cut in over a year. I showed her pictures and we discussed what I wanted. She cut my long hair into a cute layered hair cut that made my curls come out. She took a LOT of time cutting my hair. Laura is super nice and I highly recommend her. Everyone in there seemed really nice so if you do a walk-in I don't think you can go wrong. I also really appreciate how kind Garrett was when he greeted me. It's just a really nice, kind salon! read more
