First time getting my hair cut here and whoever said a new haircut was the secret to feeling amazing definitely knew what they were talking about. Got my hair cut with Drew and I left feeling like a whole new person. So professional and focused on making me feel beautiful. Thank you so much Drew! read more

My brows needed saving, and after some reading some Reddit reviews for local salons, I was blessed to find Alexis! Perfect shaping and so cleaned up. Definitely book her! She was so sweet and very accommodating. The salon was also easy to find with plentiful parking. read more

I have been looking to try the sugar waxing on my face and get a good facial for a minute. Really glad I found Alexis. I used her booking platform which was extremely easy. Even a reminder feature for us forgetful people. Not only is the location cute, colorful and funky but it has a large parking lot making it so convenient ! I absolutely loved the decor which was comfy and put me in a relaxed mood quick! Alexis is able to make someone feel comfortable instantly! Literally able to get in that room and just spill the tea. Haha had about an hour and a half with her getting a full face wax and moisturizing facial. My skin legit looks amazing and feels so smooth! Very happy with the products, steps and overall experience. I didn't feel pressure to buy unnecessary products which I really appreciated. Will definitely be returning and likely exploring additional services. Highly recommend. read more

Had to leave another review. I went to see Debbie today to get my hair done and I am so happy with how it turned out! I've seen Debbie in the past and she has always done a great job, and i love that I can experiment with different new colors with her. She is always kind, polite and easy to talk to every time I visit and every person I have encountered at Kaizen Salon has been nothing but kind and friendly as well! My hair is naturally very dark so I know it's not the easiest canvas to work with, and I appreciate the time and effort that Debbie puts into it in order to make sure that I am happy with my hair color and it is exactly what I want. I am looking forward to my next visit with Debbie and cannot say thank you enough!! One satisfied customer read more

This salon is really a one stop shop, they offer it all! I first came to see Alexis for a facial then for my eyebrows. This girl does it all and goes above and beyond for all of her clients. Also, I saw Debbie for my hair. Debbie is very knowledgeable and genuinely cares for the health of your hair. She was very honest with me from the beginning which I really appreciated. I'm very happy with my results and will continue to come here. Highly recommend! read more

Evvie is an amazing stylist. I've seen her twice and my haircuts have both been wonderful; my hair has style, movement, and suits me so well. I also appreciate that Evvie is authentically friendly and client-focused. I was referred to her by several other people in my neighborhood and understand why they recommended her so highly. read more

Just went to Debbie at Kaizen Salon for the first time this week, I was so happy with the service. Debbie was friendly and listened to everything I wanted and did a great job. I will absolutely be back and be recommending her to anyone looking for a new stylist. read more

we love Kaizen Salon! Alexis organized an amazing birthday party at the salon for a group of 8 year old girls. My daughter loved learning how to properly wash and moisturize her face, and Alexis taught all the kiddos how to make their own lip gloss. I sat on the sidelines as a parent but I learned a lot! Alexis was so great with the kids and offered lots of treats and goodies to take home. a wonderful, educational experience! highly recommend read more

Love this salon! Alexis is the best for all things waxing! She does a fantastic job and walks you through each step. She makes you feel right at home and pretty soon you will be laughing with her like she's one of your besties! Do yourself a favor and book an appointment with Alexis and you won't be disappointed!! read more

Alexis made me feel so comfortable for my Brazilian sugaring service. I will definitely be back soon

I recently went on a whim and booked with Alexis making her the 4th esthetician I've given a try for a facial and she's the only one I have plans on returning to. She made sure I was 100% comfortable and was super accommodating to any needs and adjustments I needed to ensure I would have the best first experience. This is the first time I can wholeheartedly say that I was 120% relaxed and at ease. Her booking website is super transparent and easy to navigate and book with and she's super helpful in terms of helping me if I need something that's not on the website and she's super quick. I had such a comforting and great session with her and she has an amazing aura that made her super welcoming and easy to talk to, it was hard deciding to talk to her the whole time or keep quiet and enjoy my facial haha. Will be returning soon asap!!! read more

I had a brow wax with Victoria and am really happy with her work! She asked how I've liked my brows in the past and took the time to map out my angles to match my face structure. It's been about a week since my wax and I haven't experienced any break outs. She trimmed, waxed, and applied witch hazel to sooth my skin after. Overall, she did great with cleaning up my brows and for a very reasonable price. Kaizen's new salon is really cute and has its own parking lot. I was nervous trusting someone new with my eyebrows, but I'm glad I found Victoria! read more

I hadn't gotten a Brazilian wax in years, and I was so nervous. I decided to try sugaring since I have sensitive skin and it is more natural. Alexis made me feel so comfortable, and although it is a painful service, she made every effort to make it as tolerable as possible. She is very knowledgeable, and I am so glad I trusted the process because I am seeing the results. And it is getting less painful each visit. She is also hilarious and super sweet! read more

Ok now this has got to be a very scary experience for any women, I heard she was the best & who doesn't like the best. I went from an uncomfortable orange to the most detailed highlights, I couldn't have asked for something better. Anna does not play when it comes to hair. If you have a look she's going to make it happen. Reach her at (408)280-1306 text if no answer. read more

This review is for @_jessnails_ (you can find her on instagram), the independent nail artist at Kaizen. My previous nail girl quit recently and although I loved the salon I decided to give someone new a try. I'd been following @_jessnails_ on instagram for awhile and was excited to make an appointment with her. She was very responsive and accommodating and I was able to get an appointment at a time that was convenient for me. When I arrived for my appointment Jessica was already prepping the water for my pedicure so my appointment started right on time. Jessica is so friendly and nice and checked in with me to make sure I was comfortable throughout my appointment. I showed a photo of what I was had in mind for my manicure and not only was she able to pick the perfect colors she did an absolutely amazing job on the design. I don't think I've ever loved a manicure more. It turned out absolutely gorgeous! I will definitely be back, Jessica is fantastic! read more

Evie is soooooooo awesome! Honestly this is the best highlight job that I have ever had! I have been to many salons that only do partial highlights on me. Evie helped me by doing a full highlight at a blonde level that would go best with my skin tone. She is very experienced and knowledgeable. It's nice when you can get an honest opinion from a stylist expert. I constantly get compliments! Thanks Evie!!! Your the best!!! read more

Kaizen Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - San Jose, California

I chose this salon based on my manicurist. She is 5 stars but The salon is ok. I find it unsettling to have the tv blasting every time I go in there. I think music would be more appropriate for the customers then having tv talk shows on. Not very relaxing. read more

I had been getting my hair beautified by Debbie for over 5 years now. The salon is clean and welcoming and the deco is modern which is great but what kept me coming back is the great color/cut/style service I received. I have been very happy with how Debbie tames my locks and keeps the greys from taking over. As I've gotten older, my hair has become kind of wavy and frizzy but she works her magic to put life, luster, and manageability back into it. She introduced me to highlights (which I was nervous about at first) and I love it! She's honest when I ask her about a certain cut - if she didn't think it would suit the frame of my face, she'd tell me. Prices are extremely reasonable which is icing on the cake. When I leave Kaizen with my new do, I always feel like a rock star - with beautiful hair :-). I recently moved to Southern California and am in search for a salon that provides the same type of awesome service that I'm accustomed to for a reasonable price and have yet to find one I'm happy with. In the mean time, when I fly up to the bay area, my #1 priority is to see if I can book a last minute appointment with my #1 stylist....Debbie! read more

I've been going to Jessica for nails for about 4 years now and followed her after she started at kaizen. She's an amazing manicurist! My acrylic nails are always on point!!

Kaizen Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - San Jose, California

This review is for Vicky the manicurist at the Kaizen Salon. My initial visit to Vicky was on a weekday after work. She was pleasant and did a good job on my fill. I wasn't happy that I told her over the phone at the time of scheduling the appointment that I had gel nails and my previous manicurist used gel powder. When I arrived, she used acrylic on my nails. I allowed her to do so, as it was too late to go elsewhere and I had to attend a wedding out of town the next day. Vicky asked a lot of personal questions and talked the whole time of the appointment. If I was vague about my personal business, she would continue to ask questions. I finally told her I didn't care to share the information and she finally stopped asking questions. I thought I would give her another chance and called her two weeks later for another fill. When she made the appointment, she said "Okay I will see you for your fill." I decided to change my mind and get a pedicure, so I called the next day. She gave me the same appointment for the pedicure. When I arrived for my pedicure, she told me to sit at her manicurist table, but I told her my appointment was for a pedicure. She immediately begin to raise her voice at me and tell me that my appointment was for a fill. I reminded her that I had called her back and changed the appointment from a fill to a pedicure. She continued to talk for an additional 10 minutes. I attempted to tell her that we should just consider this issue as a mistake and move forward. She told me to sit down in the pedicure chair. After she took all my polish off my toes, she told me she only had time for a polish change and was not going to give me a pedicure. I told her to just do the polish change and to let me pay her and leave. She applied the polish in a hurry and told me she was going to call me for a fill. As far as I'm concerned, I will never go back to Vicky. She is disrespectful and as a business owner should a treat her customers with respect. I recall she kept telling me she liked me. What Vicky likes is to talk alot. FInd someone else to do your nails. A business person should appreciate their customers, not mistreat them. read more

I have been coming here for over a year now why? 1) Great service at a reasonable price 2) Debbie's infectious smile and laugh; she makes you feel welcome 3) I go in looking disheveled and come out looking presentable :) If you're in Japantown, I think you definitely should check this place out! read more
