Kathy was incredible. My hair was damaged and she basically fixed it. She's warm and professional and personable. This is my new go to

I've been coming to Kathy at Jade Beauty for years and am never disappointed. We have tried many cuts and colors because she's always willing to do whatever I'm wishing for (within reason of what my hair will do of course). She is an expert with the razor on my pixie cuts and I always get lots of compliments...plus she's a really great person!!! read more

I went to Kathy for a Keratin treatment and she did an amazing job! She was so accommodating with my schedule and is very friendly. She took her time and was not rushed which I appreciated. She makes you feel at home and loves talking with you. She has a passion for what she does which shows in her work, and she is very knowledgeable about the beauty field. She goes above and beyond to make sure that you're taken care of. She also helped me get the products I needed for after care and educated me about the process. Thank you, Kathy! Side note: The color in the pictures are from partial highlights I had done in February, I only had the Keratin done with Kathy. read more

Kathy does incredible work and is professional, caring, and someone who really listens. After one of my first visits I told her that I was never able to style my hair to get the same look that I leave salons with, and she took the extra time to teach me how to get the right results. It is always relaxing when I see her (my appts are after work) I could literally nap, although I also enjoy talking with her :). She has been taking care of my hair for a few years now - this is a long overdue review - and I consider myself lucky to have found her. read more

Kathy is a hair magician! I've looked for so long to find someone to do my hair as I wanted and she exceeded my expectations. My hair (color/highlights/cut) has never looked better! Look no further you found your new stylist in Kathy! read more

I have VERY thick, dark, coarse, and long (WELL past my shoulders) Asian (Filipino) hair. And have I got A LOT of it. I have had stick straight hair all my life that has always been stubborn; it's always been extremely difficult to hold a curl and even color. I contacted Kathy on Wednesday morning through Yelp asking if she would be able to perm my hair. YES, I was inquiring about a PERM - I got so tired of my flat, straight hair and wanted to actually have texture and curls/waves for once! It gets frustrating being sweaty in a bathroom trying to curl my hair for 1+ hours knowing that the curls are just going to go away within a few hours. Anywho, she responded very quickly and soon enough we were texting about the condition of my hair and I ended up seeing her later on that same day for a consultation! I was pretty much sold on her knowing she is half Asian and had been doing perms on her mother, who is Asian, for YEARS. I was really trying to seek out stylists that knew how Asian hair work and had tons of experience with it - and here she was! She was able to pencil me in the next evening and I couldn't have been more excited. She had trimmed my hair beforehand & my perm took around 3-4 hours. Kathy is so knowledgeable and so much fun to talk to & hilarious lol - those 3-4 hours went by pretty fast to me! I am so pleased with my hair and I've gotten so many compliments already. Seriously, she is a miracle maker! I never thought my hair would be this wavy/curly and actually stay like this!!! I highly recommend Kathy! I think I've found my forever stylist :,) read more

Kathy was rude, disrespectful, unknowledgeable and immature. Not only did she mistake my appointment time slot but in proceeding in making this mistake, she dodged any responsibility by saying that I should have written the time down instead of asking her. I quote her, "It's not my fault you didn't write it down. I text you the wrong time, but that's not on me. You should have written it down" All with a condescending tone that truly shocked me and made me mad as I was being super polite to someone I would be trusting with my hair. You can understand the clients point of view here, but at the end, she continued to blame me for the wrong time and refused to give me my deposit back because she said it was not her fault for texting me the wrong time. I personally like to give my business and my money to someone who treats me with respect and decency. She is a phony person who will show her true colors with any small sign of disagreement. Do not come to her, and if you do, test her out, see how she responds when you ask anything more of her that is merely that of a general good customer service. See for yourself, or not. read more

Kathy has been doing my hair for the past 20 years! She is the most talented colorist and I always get lots of compliments when she does my hair. I would never go to anyone else again because I always know I will walk away happy! She is the best! When I'm in her chair I know I am in good hands. read more

As i mentioned before, I've never given any review unless the service is extremely good or extremely bad. Kathy is special. She is very passionate in what she does over 25+ years. She is personable and so much fun to talk to. You can tell she is really listening when you talk to her. Her salon is super cute and cozy. After all these years, i was never 100% satisfied with ANY hair style/color/balayage work i found in IE, LA, OC, even San Diego. I would literally go once, then never again! Due to my difficult type of hair and need i have, many times I had to walk out barely noticing a difference from when i walked in. UNTIL I FINALLY FOUND KATHY!!!!! (The heavens opened and angels were singing) I found her through yelp. She had enough pictures and great reviews that i felt comfortable enough to try her out. But from my previous experiences, I couldn't judge from yelp or instagram pictures. TRUST ME WHEN I SAY SHE IS THE BEST! She truly knows what she's doing. Kathy did cuts, balayage, color, treatments for my hair, and I genuinely LOVE..LOVE..LOVE.. everything about my new hair!! Thanks Kathy!! I hope my review can give others piece of mind when they're looking for a hair stylist/colorist. KATHY is THAT GOOD. Yes, your hair will look good as good as all those pictures!! My journey has now ended because i have finally found KATHY!! I will definitely recommend all my friends and family to her. Yelpers, you really won't regret trying this GEM out! XOXO read more

They do not provide services for ethnic hair. I felt condescension when I received a response to my inquiry about maintaining my curl pattern. Don't come here if you are interested in having your ethnic hair colored. Did not feel any welcoming tone, at all. I sent messages to numerous hair stylists and hers was weighted with condescension. Disgusting. Response: I stand by my feeling that reframing my question in quotes , rather than responding to my need for curl maintenance right away, comes off as condescending when my question was pretty straight forward. Felt as thought my question was being questioned. read more

She is my favorite hair stylist ever! I have been going to Kathy for over a year, and there's no one else I'd ever trust on my hair besides Kathy. She is gentle, fast, and her work truly speaks for itself. She truly has the magic touch and makes me feel beautiful every time I leave. Thank you so much! read more

big shoutout to kathy for making me part of curly hair gang :) i am so in love with my hair! she was very patient and precise with the process. I have never stuck to one hair dresser, but I would definitely come back for a hair cut or treatment! read more

Kathy is amazing. She does awesome cuts and colors. I am so happy I found her. I don't usually stick with one stylist because they never get it exactly how I want it, but Kathy totally does!! I just saw her again on Saturday and once again she did an amazing job! I also love that she is honest about what is feasible for my hair. Definitely found my stylist for life!!! read more

I highly recommend Kathy Schwertfeger my "Fairy Godmother of Hair "at JADE BEAUTY LOUNGE. You will come out of her Salon looking and feeling fabulous! Trust me I have been everywhere from San Bernardino, Redlands, Rancho Cucamonga, Upland, all the way to Chino looking for great Hair Stylist and every place I went to was either to high in price or didn't do what I asked for, or damaged my hair. I never had such a great experience as I do now every time Kathy does my hair. Kathy is not only a Hair Stylist, she is a Hair Expert! Highly educated, passionate and knowledgeable. She cares for the health of your hair and has improved my hairs quality. she is a master at haircuts and extenstions! Kathy never leaves you waiting and always calls at least 4 days before your appointment, as well as the day before to confirm. I really like this, because I am so busy and sometimes forgetful. She really does take her time to make sure you are happy. read more

Kathy is awesome, she listens! I have been to many hair stylists in my time and many of them do what they want instead of what I request. The kindness and attention to detail Kathy shows is amazing. She will be cutting my hair and my sons hair forever!!! Oh, not to mention the salon is impeccably kept. It's very clean and all the stylists are very nice :) read more

I absolutely love my hair! Kathy is so sweet & knowledgeable. She truly does an amazing job. It's obvious she has a passion for what she does. After several terrible experiences with inexperienced stylists, I was doing my own color for many years before I came upon Jade Beauty Lounge. The salon is clean, decorated nicely, convenient, and I had a very pleasurable experience. Thank you! You gained a new client for life! read more

Kathy is fantastic! She is adorable and incredibly knowledgeable. I previously had blue/purple colored hair on the under layers and wanted to change up the color to burgundy, not only on the previously colored hair but also my natural black hair. It turned out so beautifully without having to bleach any of my hair! And my hair is very soft and healthy looking. She also cut my hair and I love that too! I have some long side-swept bangs that I wasn't very happy with. Kathy knew immediately why it didn't look quite right and fixed it up. The cut looks great and is very low maintenance, exactly what I was looking for. I am definitely going to be a repeat customer! read more

This was my first time coming to her. I've follow her on Instagram and love her work she posts. She's very welcoming and just had this natural way of making you feel comfortable. She asks and listens to what you want and don't want. I wanted to lighten my hair, but I was so nervous and afraid it wouldn't end up right. I no longer have any doubts or fears. She knows definitely knows what she is doing. And I'm pretty sure that she is going to be my "forever stylist". I am extremely happy with my results and plan on sending all my family, friends, and coworkers her way. read more

Started going to Kathy two years ago with my gross hair... she knew how to color my hair, balayage it, and make it strong! It looks so healthy now and I ALWAYS get a great cut. She now cuts my husband's hair, my daughter's hair, and my moms. She listens to my requests and helps me to understand want won't work on me. I know many others who come and stay for color correction. She's the guru of hair! read more

Im extremely particular in regards to who does anything to my hair. I have to say ... Kathy is amazing !!!!! She is constantly taking classes and staying educated on new products and methods of treating hair and skin care as well. I am always able to get an appointment, she's very flexible with her scheduling, Very Reasonable prices. The shop is conveniently located off 10 frwy and always very clean and pleasantly quiet/relaxing. I also have her do my facials and peels. Love her. Would recommend to everyone I know. 5 Stars ***** read more

I came here after a recommendation from a friend and it was one of the greatest decision I've made! I was in desperate need of a color correction/blending fix after getting one of the saddest balayage almost a month ago (photo for reference). I wanted a warm blonde color and ended up with red/electric yellow poorly blended hair. Kathy took her time with my my hair and made sure there were no obvious transitions from my black hair. I ended up with a warm brown blonde color. read more

Kathy is much more than a hair stylist. She is an artist. She has an artist's sense of what works and what doesn't with her clients. She takes great care in her coloring and cutting to give you just the look you have dreamed of. Each style is an individual creation. Some people travel to places like Beverly Hills thinking that they will find the hottest hair dressers there - when, in reality, we have that kind of expertise here with Kathy at the Jade Beauty Lounge in Redlands. Once you find her, no one else will do. read more

I am so thankful for finding Kathy during my adventure in searching for a hairstylist. I am new to the area and was in desperate need for my hair to get the TLC it needed. Kathy did an amazing job with my hair. I gave her an idea on how I wanted my hair and she was so on point! I felt so comfortable with her during the entire appt and will DEFINITELY be returning to see her again! You are awesome, Kathy! Plus super sweet! read more

I have been seeing Kathy since I moved to Redlands in March of 2015 , I love her! I have had purple hair for about 4 years and she is the first person that has done my hair where my hair grows out before my purple fades, and those of you that have crazy colors in your hair know that just doesn't happen. She is seriously a miracle worker lol! I have since moved to Vegas, but I will continue to drive to California to see her! read more

I did my research and chose Jade beauty lounge. What first impressed me was how quickly Kathy responded to my request (under 5 minutes). I was further impressed by her asking me questions about my hair, color, style etc. Instead of just saying sure I can do/ fix anything. She was very honest about what she would need to do to do a color correct, and she took me this very same day. I know she was busy, but she stayed late to make my hair beautiful. She was funny, down to earth, and very knowledgeable about all the products. I have definitely found a new stylist. Thank you so much Kathy!!! read more

Kathy is THE BEST at what she does. Kathy does my daughter's hair amazingly. I couldn't have asked for a better hairdresser!!

Kathy is AMAZING. I've been seeing her for all my hair care needs for over 10 years. She is so friendly and always does exactly what I want. She knows my style and knows what will look best. I moved to Texas 3 years ago and I still will wait until I can come home to see her. She explains exactly what she's doing and has plenty of pics of her work on Instagram so you know the quality of work she does. I recommend her to everyone. She's worth it! read more

Have to give a shout out to Kathy. I travel 400 miles to see her - she is that good! Thankfully I combine the trip with a visit to my family. You can tell her "give me something that works for me" and she does! I literally just wash my hair, scrunch it with some mousse, and go. And it dries perfectly into place! And this is still the case three months later. I am still getting compliments on my cut. She is amazingly talented! read more

Kathy has cut my hair for 15+ years! During that time period I moved to Orange County and tried many salons and could not find any hairstylists that were even half as good! read more

Kathy did my perm about a month ago, and I have nothing but amazing things to say! Before I even made the appointment, she took so much time to talk to me about my hair and give her professional opinion on what a realistic result would be. She's so easy to talk to and walked me through every step of the process. I love my curly hair and will definitely be back again! read more

Kathy is incredible! When I came in for my first appointment with her, she immediately assessed my hair and made suggestions as to how I could improve the health and quality of my hair. She trimmed the dead ends but still left me with a length I was really happy with, my hair feels completely different after her treatment! She is AMAZING at coloring--I am a blonde and she made my highlights look so natural and beautiful. Her studio is cozy and cute, she is super sweet and welcoming, and she makes a delicious coffee too! (: I would recommend Kathy to any friend of mine, she truly is a gem! read more
