She is sweet, cute and one talented woman! Thayse has quite the following too. I thank my Cousin everyday for referring me to her. Today could not come fast enough. My year and a half wait was over. Back in Thayse's chair having her work her magic. Always a mini consult before she begins. I love that. She actually sits with each client every time and asks what is going on with your hair as well as what you are wanting to achieve with the cut, color or highlights. AND she really listens! I have watched her with clients. She makes you feel like you are the most important person to her during your session. As always I left feeling so satisfied and beautiful with my refreshed hair cut/highlights! Thayse just has a way of doing that for everyone who steps through her salon doors! She can do that for you too! Thank you Thayse! You are awesome!!!

My Wife was referred to Farzenah after we relocated from The mountains near Tahoe to the Santa Cruz…read morebeaches. My wife was petrified at even the mention of the painstaking and stressful requirement of what may be the most important professional relationship in a woman's life today. Being a super caring and devoted husband I listened to her fears and concerns with a "no lose" scenario playing out in my head on the quiet drive to our new house in Capitola. If her hair turns out Great, that's awesome and sexy... If it gets destroyed, I have a really great portrait mode camera on my iPhone 10x plus and an astoundingly entertaining sense of humor! She walked in after her appointment looking absolutely beautiful. She was so overjoyed with her experience with Farzenah, she couldn't believe she had gotten so lucky to be referred to her. I switch he's my phone back to fort nite and listened to her beam the rest of the night. I can't help but wonder what kind of laughter would of echoed our new homes walls if she had been forced to pick a stylist from the web, or the weird posters that advertise everything in pen on every post in town.

I trust her to keep things the same when it's working and help me figure out how to switch it up when it's time for a change. I'm not a hair stylist, so I really appreciate Farzaneh's ability to talk through what's possible and realistic to expect for my hair type (and my preference for low-maintenance daily styling). She has recently opened up appointments earlier in the day (7 a.m. on some weekdays!) which is perfect for my work schedule. Her salon is so relaxing and private with space for one client at a time, and I love getting my hair done with a view of the little garden area outside. Great hair, great company, and a haircut experience that feels more like a self-care ritual than just checking a box on my to-do list.

Haven't been to a salon since covid and had a special occasion booked last minute so the search was…read moreon to find a place for highlights and a trim. This place came recommended and had good reviews and they happened to have a spot open in time for my event. Upon arriving, I was pleased with cleanliness and layout of salon. I communicated with the stylist that I wanted to blend some minimal grays that were just at the hair line ( a treat from pregnancy) and get more gold highlights and take out any red. Showed the stylist a photo of myself with the hair I wanted (pre-pandemic hair). I thought she understood. I've been having my hair professional done for decades...and this is the first time I've spent 4 hours in a chair...even when getting the "works". For those of you who've had your hair done, you know it's not like you can just get up and walk out half way through....you sorta have to just deal with results and hope for the best. Which is what I did.. The stylist was knowledgeable about the steps and communicated but I knew she had gone down the wrong path with my hair when she herself expressed it came out darker than she had intended but "not to worry" she'd fix it with the highlights. I didn't see how that was possible but I had already been there 2 hours and I wanted to trust in the process. Fast forward and I ended up with reddish / rusty highlights on the caramel side. A far cry from my photo and my ask. The stylist even remarked that it was NOT what I had asked for but at least it looked better than when I came in. I didn't find the remarks comforting. While she tried to get me excited about how great my hair looked all I could see was this dark streak/line about an inch wide that wraps around the back of my hair where she tried to do a 2 color process which she admittedly had said it didn't work out the way she wanted but again not to worry..( this is in my new hair growth area). Needless to say, I was just over it. My hair was darker and redder than when I went in! *I did have to take a couple calls while in the chair (and she was patient with that)..but they were max 10minutes total combined so I really doubt that impacted results. The stylist did say she guarantees her work but I don't want to give it another try. $240 later ( I left $40 for tip)...overall disappointed... l I could have spent $20 for an at home out of the box coloring that I would've been much happier with. Giving 3 stars for cleanliness, friendliness, haircut, price and availability.
