Beautiful sun kissed hair
Courtney S.

Hello ladies & gentlemen, I'm writing this review on behalf of Nicole Zahra also known on Instagram @mesmereyezinghair let me just start by saying my hair was an absolute hot mess and I know it, through the years I have shown myself no self respect with the amount of box dye I used, it's sad but true, so I FINALLY got the chance to get my hair professionally done, before I even got into the chair She made sure she knew everything that my poor hair had been through, from color treatment, to heat, to washing routines I mean EVERYTHING which is extremely important when providing clients with a consultation, when I showed her what I was going for she was honest with what the results would be and the sessions it would take unlike some stylist who just throw you in their chair and completely under deliver (this is a reason I have not got my hair done, I've witnessed many friends go through this horror story) I ended up asking her what she thought would be best for me, at the end of the day you have to trust your stylist and Nicki made me feel beyond comfortable when it came to trusting her with my hair. My whole experience was just amazing, the vibe of the salon in general is very nice, it's clean, the other people working there are polite and professional, Nicki also had a snack drawer which made my heart sing when she gave me a pack of cookies because my pregnant a** was hungry. LOL. After a few hours of getting my hair done she completely brought my hair back, the color work she did was absolutely amazing. My hair felt so healthy and I have received so many compliments on how warm and natural it looks considering I have pale skin. Nicki is amazing, and I can't wait to come back and have her touch up my hair, she truly helped me feel beautiful again.

This review is for Tina Soto. I was looking for a new place to get a color and cut and came across High Fashion Studios here on Yelp. I left a message and received a response within 48 hours from Tina herself. Tina is super nice and unlike any hairstylist before asked me to send her pics of my hair's current state and a pic of what I wanted. I wanted a darker red and to chop my hair to my shoulders. It was nice to walk into an appointment and have the hairstylist already know what I was coming in for down to the color and cut. We only had to iron out a few details. Not only did Tina meet all my hair expectations, but she blew them out of the water. I absolutely love the color of my hair now. She suggested we add in more brighter red pieces to pop against the darker red we used on the rest of my hair and it looks so cool! Those bright red pops are the kind of red I have been slowly edging towards these past several years and it was awesome to finally see that bright red in my hair. Also she listened so well to how I wanted my hair length. I have had hairdressers in the past take what I say and then continue to chop off more than I asked. It made me paranoid every time I got a cut. I didn't have that issue this time around. I also felt like for as much as I had done during this appointment, it went by really fast. I have had coloring appointments in the past feel like they take soooo long. It made me think that maybe my past stylists ignored for too long. Lol. It helped that the atmosphere in the salon is really nice and like I said before Tina herself is super friendly and is really fun to chat with. I had a great experience at this salon and I definitely recommend it. I have already gotten so many compliments on my hair. Thanks again Tina!

Tina Soto is a godsend!! I came to her for color correction after a humbling DIY color attempt and she fixed it exactly the way I wanted! I was able to get a hold of her via call/text and was able to work from the reference photos I sent her. She tries to understand what your style is like before starting and has targeted suggestions, which I highly appreciated since I've had stylists unwilling to do this before. She has an air of confidence that made it really easy to trust her, not to mention she's super down to earth and the salon itself has very relaxing vibes. She was very careful throughout the entire process and really knows what she's doing. As a result, the blonde I asked for actually feels healthier and more manageable than the last one I got from a previous stylist (which felt fried even after trimming). She also acknowledges the fun in getting experimental colors and styles, which will definitely have me coming back when I decide to have something more unconventional :) Thanks again Tina, it was a pleasure!

Before & after, first session w/ Stephanie
T T.

This review is long over due. This review is really based on Stephanie! Let me start with how SHE IS AN ANGEL!!! I found Stephanie on instagram (@a.vibe.called.steph), and always admired her work. To be honest, her work intimidated me because she worked with such vibrant colors and I was not into that at all. But I thought, if she's good with colors she has to be good with more basic hair colors. I decided to bite the bullet and message her. She asked about my hair journey, which included going to other stylists and never leaving satisfied to also dealing w/ some health issues that were reflecting in my scalp/hair. Stephanie listened to all my concerns and made me feel not self conscious about my situation. That was just everything to me!!! Come the day of my apt, I was so set on just getting a refresh on my balayage and cut off a lot of hair. Steph saw my inspiration photos and got started! We started w/ the cut and she let me cut my own hair. She really empowered me to let go of my long locks and made me feel confident in doing so. Long story short, she somehow convinced me to step out of my comfort zone and play with color. I was skeptical at first but I'm glad I did. I never thought I'd be into high fashion hair colors, but here I am. Each session a different color!! I highly recommend Stephanie and her assistant Monica! They are great!!!

My review goes to Monica and Stephanie, they are amazing hairstylist. IG @loveisinthehaiir_ This was my first time colouring my hair, I'm not gonna lie I was a little scared at first and since I wanted two colors this was like a big change for me, Also I have super long hair, on top of that I had box dyed my hair black a couple of years ago, and I had no idea my hair was going to give them a hard time, these two girls are amazing honestly, It was a really long process and I am so thankful that my hair came out to be exacly how I wanted it. Thank you Monica for doing this, I appreciate both of you guys work on my hair. The most important thing is that my hair feels healthy. Thank you Monica and Steph for all the good advice and tips on how to treat my hair.

Love my bob! Bob life! Thanks Charm!

This review is for hairstylist Charm, Charmazing, Charmaine! Where do I start? I came to Charm for a very natural Bob! Easy management and I wasn't expecting anything exciting; I just wanted an easy, manageable, hairstyle! Charm listened to me and went to work. Once completed she handed a mirror to check out my new du! Boy oh boy! I was in for a treat!!! My hair was beyond my expectations! The passion she put into my hairstyle spilt onto me!! I looked fabulous!!! I felt fabulous!!! Michelle Obama had nothing on me in that moment! My bob felt so classy! And professional! ; Who I am but I normally don't have time to put the emphasis into myself! Charm made me feel on top of the world with this look! And I'm not sugar coating it! I look damn good! My bob is easy to manage! She styled it so effortlessly! I plan on returning for more!! Thank you Charm! Absolute doll I may add :) I

My review is for both the venue and my personal stylist, Stephanie (IG @a.vibe.called.steph). Recommended to me by a mutual friend, i could not be happier that i found her! I came in with a grown out brassy ombré, and told her i wanted a lavender/magenta ombré. She asked for photos of my current hair prior to setting an appointment with me, and was VERY upfront and honest about pricing, time commitment, and what i could expect after sitting in her chair. Guys, Steph is a HAIR wizard! If you're looking to go for the trendy colorful "unicorn" hair that's everywhere on social media, she is YOUR GIRL! Not only did i get the results i was hoping for, but she managed to make it happen in one appointment. The salon is adorable, but not exactly obvious from the street. Steph let me know where to park and how to find it when i made my appointment. They have a photo wall set up for taking pictures of your hair before and after, complete with glam lights! Love the salon, Love Steph. Check this place out, you won't be disappointed!

The first time she ever did my hair! I was so blown away.

Came to this salon following Stephanie; who worked on my hair way before. I first came when the salon was at a stage where they were revamping it. Great atmosphere and really friendly ladies! Now the revamp to this place is seriously so cute and chic! I love how cozy this salon makes me feel. From the moment you enter to the moment you sit in one of their chairs, you feel as if you're friends with all the girls. This place has it all. Nails, hair - color, cut, braids, extensions, and eyelashes. You can literally be pampered here if you need! I get my hair done by Stephanie - cut, color, and treated. I LOVE HER. You can't find anyone as passionate as her honestly. Especially in the Bay Area where everyone is competing with each other all the time. She's definitely more than a hair stylist to me but I definitely love her more for being an amazing colorist (; I have dark, stubborn Asian hair! Too stubborn to work with sometimes. I've been blonde for about 4 years now, so I struggle finding the perfect person to work with my hair. But let me tell you, Stephanie works magic with my hair! I walk out feeling so great about my hair! She literally surprises me every time I see her and I've been going to her for along time now! Working with her is so easy as well. You tell her what you want and she'll tell you how she'll get there. Whether it's coming back for another session, or she can actually get it done in one sitting. She's very honest and confident about her work and I love that about her! And ladies, you pay for quality, not wanna-be "goals." But Steph gives you both! I always fall back in love with my hair every time I see her. She has been trying to revive my hair from my pervious hair stylists and is very persistent on it. I recently jumped the gun and chopped my hair off to restart my unicorn journey with Stephanie (: As far as the other services there, I personally haven't got the chance to do anything else there. But I have met the other girls who work there and they are truly amazing. Especially Alonna - the nail artist - I've seen her work and she is honestly so gifted. You ever want nails and nail art you see on Pinterest? Yeah you go to her! Don't struggle to find some of the best ladies, cus they're here at this salon. You won't regret your experience here.

Tina made this girl very happy!!!!

Ok so I can't write a very descriptive review, but I can be very HONEST!! I called and asked if I could a same day appointment and TINA fit my daughter right in. So my daughters hair was down below her bottom, and its has this funky wave to it right in the center. So she went over all her options she asked me what I thought I wanted and she asked my daughter what she wanted. Then we discussed what she thought was good, combining all our ideas. She was very professional, especially having a young girl in her chair all while carrying adult conversations. (I say that because I was in a salon not to long ago where they didn't consider the fact they had children around) she was also very inspiring and gave me a lot of information of different options I have to go to school myself!! Tina was very informative, she offered several hair tips for my daughters hair, my hair and other people who with me as well. I highly recommend her and I will write another honest review once I have my hair completed my hair appointment on Wednesday,,,, Thank you Tina, Zoey loves her hair

Do you believe in magic? I do I come here specifically for Ms. Stephanie! Her magic touch transforms my basic ass hair into a stellar supernova. I trust her, and only her when it comes to my hair. Nothing but good vibes when we touch baseThank you Stephanie!

Lala L.

Steph is still my hairdresser,and she's now dear to my heart. She creates magic onto your hair, and makes sure you leave owning all of that magic ‍‍ I'm of a certain age and I will say,I feel pretty sassy sporting these beautiful colors she created! ‍ ILY

Freshly dyed. Phoenix rising from the ashes
Anita L.

Even after moving halfway across the country to Oklahoma, I still make it a ritual to come back twice a year for a dye session. Stephanie takes care of my hair and makes sure it fits my lifestyle and routine. 5 months later I still get compliments on how my hair color has faded. I'm 100% loyal for life!!

After about 6 months after my first haircut with her, and the tips she's provided, my hair is low key thriving! Let's start off with location... She's located downtown Hayward off B Street. Although, parking kinda sucks, and it is the Main Street with so many cars, her place is so cute! Inside her place, there plenty of seating, and a lot of chairs available. For the most part, whenever I go see her, I'm probably the only other client inside - just incase you guys get nervous for Covid reasons. Nancy is so welcoming. She starts off asking you what you want to do with your hair, and she observes and starts framing your face to see if you would like it and gives out suggestions as needed. Then she washes your hair, and then she begins the cut. She's so knowledgable in the industry. She given me helpful advice on how to maintain my hair. For reference, I've always had to wash my hair daily because it's always getting so oily. So she's given me tips on how to prevent it. And after 6 months of following tips, and seeing what works for me, my hair is fuller, healthier, and thriving as I've mentioned. She also sells products in house just in case you want to obtain professional items. I highly recommend her. You won't regret it.

I showed her a photo of the hairstyle I wanted. The side-swept bangs were supposed to be longer, with only a small amount of shorter pieces to create a natural, blended look. Unfortunately, Zoe miscalculated the length, and a large portion of my bangs was cut too short. I didn't want bangs that simply covered my forehead, I wanted them to look soft and natural. The final result looked nothing like what I had requested. After I pointed this out, Zoe asked me to show her the reference photo again. Once I did, she insisted that my bangs looked the same as the ones in the picture. No, they absolutely did not. She even said, "You didn't know it would look like this?" Of course I didn't, because this was not the style I wanted, nor did it resemble the bangs in the photo I had shown her. Throughout the conversation, I remained polite and tried to communicate my concerns calmly, but she defended every aspect of her work. Then, she kept cutting my hair, I feel like I should've stopped her at that moment but I didn't know if she was finishing up or trying to fix it, but my hair looks frizzy now after too much trimming. The rest of the haircut was not what I expected as well including the back and the sides. I feel like she lacks the skills to work with face shapes and the ability to understand what customer wants. Another thing is that if you don't use Zelle or Venmo, you will have to pay at least $100 to pay with your Visa card. The haircut was $80, and I had to pay $20 more for tip and/or a fee which is 25% more, for a bad haircut, can you imagine that?

He also cut my hair about two inches shorter than I had requested, and the layers don't blend as smoothly as I would like.
