    Lesley brought my short and light hair back to my preferred long and dark look yesterday. It was a pleasure to spend the afternoon having her perfect my mane! Looking forward to my next appointment!

    I've finally found a stylist in San Diego that i love! I've lived here for 5 years now, I've tried multiple stylists in the area that were just okay, But now I've finally found someone I can return to. I've seen Lesley for the last year and love how she does my hair each time! She is nothing less than amazing with color! I have dark hair and random grays popping through, she was able to give me amazing coverage of my grays while still incorporating beautiful Carmel highlights. Each time I get my hair done she helps me find a cost effective method of keeping my color while still making it stylish. Her cuts help keep my hair from feeling drab and amplify the beautiful color she creates. She helped give me style tips, so now I can recreate the magic at home as well. I'm always getting compliments on my hair now. Go see Lesley, you won't regret it!

    Lesley is a true hair goddess!! I'm super picky when it comes to who I let do my hair & I trust Lesley completely. I have very long think hair & I seriously was amazed with how quick she was able to cut, color, and style my hair. She's efficient and the quality is amazing. I brought in pictures of the color I wanted and she was able to help me in figuring out what would be best for me (ie low maintenance lol). I am so happy with my hair!! I definitely won't go to anyone else.

    I love the pink hair she did for me! I get compliments all the time. I love extreme hair hair colors done elegantly and Lesley always goes above and beyond my expectations. If you want beautiful colors like this she's your gal ;)

    Just what I wanted

    Love love love my hair by Lesley at Vixen, she is amazing!!! It took me so long to find someone that I fully trust with my hair (ahhh) and I just know when I step out of her chair I'll feel like a million bucks!! She is a great listener for what you're looking for and also a great artist to interpret it well and give you the look you want!!! Cant say enough good about Lesley and if you are looking for a top notch stylist, look no further!! I've gone lighter, darker, and in between (lol), shorter, longer and she just gets it spot on!! Not only is Lesley fantastic! the hospitality at the salon is so cool--offering up a special cappuccino or beverage and snacks (even came up with COVID friendly prepackaged treats for their clients)! Makes for a nice experience all around and it's appreciated!! Lesley comes with the highest of recommendation by me (and as my husband says, I'm very picky about my hair)!!!!

I will say I was…read moreaccommodated, considering I hit some traffic and was a couple minutes late to the appointment and they took me back promptly anyway. However, the quality of the service was not great. I asked for my hair to just be down and curled. She didn't seem like she really wanted to be there or do my service, because I wasn't met with kindness or general respectful customer service. The stylist was very blunt and, in all honesty, not very nice. She then began curling my hair with a flat iron. I don't remember the name of my stylist but I noticed during my appointment that she was absurdly rough with my hair. I thought maybe it was just a coincidence or she pulled too hard on accident one time. She actually consistently pulled my hair extremely hard as she styled my hair with the flat iron and it was very painful. A couple days later, I noticed the top of my scalp to be tender and discovered some inflammation in my hair follicles. After reading some similar reviews, it seems like I'm not the only one who's had this painful experience & that their hair was also curled with a flat iron when there are curling irons readily available. I wasn't asked if I was okay with that either and neither were the customers in these other reviews. I am pretty disappointed considering the price of the service and the fact that the stylist was tipped accordingly. Will not be returning to this location. I hope management sees these reviews and takes them seriously considering the consistency of such events.

    I spent $410 total (cancellation fee $50, take down $50, hair $90, partial corn rows $200, and the…read moreonly money I had left for her tip $20) on my hair today. I wish I had $700+ to get the best quality hair, a full weave, and tip 20%. Here's the Breakdown.......... $90 for 1 pack of Remy Hair - I will never buy from the place I bought from last time........ I have had good experiences with Remy in the past...... however, what I bought dried out within 1-2 weeks!! Some of it is my fault. Not all. Call me for the name of this place to avoid and more details/info re my experiences with Extensions 760-805-1728. Yvette suggested I buy my hair online next time from Boojee a few days/week before my next appt. (sometime in early May?). $50 for a cancellation fee and to reschedule a few hours later...... that's fair. $50 for Yvette to remove aka take down the corn rowns w/ sewn tracks in my head.... because it wasn't her work. $200 for Yvette to give me a Partial Weave aka approx. 1 packet of hair, except 1 piece. I ran out of money, so I could only tip her $20 today. I will have to re-pay her asap. She did an excellent job on the extensions.......... : ) The cornrows are very thin and tight, but not hurting. They are placed evenly and across the top/lower half of my head..... She placed them a little off my face, so I can wear a ponytail, headband, sides up, etc. She doesn't charge for repairs between appointments or for her takedowns. : ) Thank you Yvette!! : ) Lisa Lane

I have naturally curly hair and she was confident she could place the highlights to look great with my curls. After the color and cut she dried my hair straight and I told her the color looked good straight, but I would not be able to tell how I liked it until I styled my hair curly. I tipped over 20%, bought the products she suggested and scheduled my next appointment with her before I left that day. After styling my hair curly at home I realized it did not look good curly. The color placement looked like thin pieces of straw in my curls. It was not chunky bayalage highlights I asked for. I went back to see her a few weeks to show her how my hair looked curly so she could fix it at our next appointment. She was extremely rude and told me I disrespected her by coming to her salon to express my dislike for my hair. She then sent me a lengthy text and said I should find another hair stylist. I thought a long time before posting this because I understand how a poor yelp review affects a small business, but her behavior and inability to hear her customers feedback truly deserves one star.
