I had a fantastic experience at Lili's Salon & Spa today. First, I was able to obtain an appointment within 15 minutes of calling to book. Second, my hair was shampooed, cut, and expertly styled by Lili within 45 minutes. She also recommended an awesome anti-frizz product, which I purchased once I saw the wonders that it (and Lili's styling, which I'm praying I can replicate!) worked on my hair. I will definitely return to this salon! read more

This was probably one of the nicest places I've been to get a haircut, the man who was cutting my hair, Ash, offered me a cappuccino and gave me a cookie! He was super friendly and really fun to talk to while I got my hair cut. The one thing I would say is you should let them know if you have a time constraint, my haircut took around 2 and a half hours. But he did take his time with diligence, he washed it and put in bond repair etc to help with hair damage, and some product in to soften it. After he blow dried my hair it was the softest and had the most body and volume, it was amazing. Then I found out the haircut cost $85 dollars lol, he mentioned it while blow drying and my HEART WENT IN MY THROAT, I mean I paid the money and everything but wow that was pretty pricey for just a trim. At least I got my money's worth though, he did use a lot of products and did a nice job. read more

I've been going to Ash for a few years now and I love what he does with my hair! The entire experience from start to finish is all about me. He takes his time to understand my needs and desires for my hair style, cut and color. Plus his head massage is like no other! It's one of the highlights of my visit to be quite honest. His fun loving personality keeps you engaged and feeling appreciated, understood and listened to. Highly recommend this gentleman! read more

Took me in last minute. Went from blonde/orange to darkbrown/black. Couldn't be happier. Thank you so much!!!! read more

I don't live in Sausalito. I was there for a friend's anniversary celebration, and since it was a dressy event I was looking for a blow-dry and makeup. I called Lili's and Ash was super helpful so I got an appointment. Lili was lovely. She did a bit of trimming on my cut and did my makeup. She really knew what she was doing and I ended up with a stunning look. I got huge compliments at the party. Lili was warm and friendly and the salon is small and personal. I appreciated the service I got and if I lived closer I'd go back. read more

I have seen Lili three times now. It's taken me a long time to grow my hair to a certain length because it tends to be dry. I stated visiting Lili's Salon because she is close to my home. The second time I saw her she decided to add layers to my hair without consulting me first. I went back a third time and I though I was pretty clear that I wanted just a trim all around. When I got out of my chair I saw big chunks of my hair on the ground. No doubt Lilii is talented but if this continues, my hair will get shorter and shorter over time. I need somebody to simply respect my need and wants. Really, is that so hard? I will go back to my old hairdresser who is located a 30 min drive from my home and more expensive. read more

I went to this salon for a simple trim. I very clearly asked Lili to keep the length as long as possible. And she cut off 4 inches off my hair. Upon reflecting my observation, not only she was completely dismissive, she was extremely disrespectful and called me names and referred to my hair as 'rats tail'. I have never had such a bad shape for my hair. She doesn't know how to do layering at all. I felt thoroughly abused and scared as she was screaming at me while cutting my hair. I wasn't sure what to do. Charging 110 for a dirty place with hair still on the seat and for extremely rude, abusive behavior felt like a robbery. I was honesty scared to even bring it up while I was there. She had a very invasive, talkative and generally frustrated attitude. I wouldn't recommend anyone going here for anything. read more

Pam was very thorough with my skin and gave me a fabulous foot and arm massage. I usually prefer the neck and shoulder massage with a facial, but Pam made me feel spectacular. My skin was refereshed after teh express facial. Pam even took the time to make my facial last a bit longer and made me feel pampered. It is a bit expensive for a 40 minute facial but Pam was honest and not a hard sell on anything which is the best. I just want my skin to renew, not be told what products to use or not. Thanks! read more

I walked in on a Wednesday with an absolutely horrendous color job from a salon in Mill Valley. I was desperate, but petrified to pick another salon. My best friend suggested that i go see Lili because she was able to give her dark brown hair the right ashy highlights that nobody else could achieve. I am 5'10 and my hair is down to my butt--It's ALOTTTTT of hair! Lili was able to get me in on Saturday between wedding gigs. She also explained the price upfront to color correct my very long hair. I really appreciated everything she said to me and how real she was without being offensive. She knew my hair pretty bad, but never made me feel bad about it. This is really important to me and stands out because i had spent the last week crying and obsessing over how terrible my hair looked. Come saturday, I brought in a picture of a beautiful woman with amazing unique highlights/lowlights--a tall order for my half (yes half) bleached sort of ombre hair. She agreed that this style would look good on me and asked if i could leave the picture up on my phone. Hours and hours later I left feeling fabulous because Lili was miraculously able to save my ombre by changing the tone, and giving me some pretty darn good highlights that really just pull the look together. The brown she used was spot on to my natural color, which is what I wanted to go for. The highlights are ashy how i requested. I was so happy that when I left i asked her if i could make an appointment to get my hair touched up right before i leave to my destination wedding! read more

The salon just moved and the new location is just down the street. Easy parking and I was taken in right away! I went to see Arash who added the most beautiful natural blond color to my hair! I'm so happy with the results, my hair looks amazing, healthy and shinny! He also trimmed my dead ends and shaped the front without cutting too much which is exactly what I wanted. If you are blond and tired of dealing with dry overexposed highlights and want your hair to grow longer go see him! He suggested color instead of my normal highlights and I'm so glad I took his advise! He is also funny and charming and before you know he will transform your hair into the most sexy blond you have ever been! I absolutely love the way my hair looks and will be back for sure. read more

After being cancelled on by a stylist down the street that I had never met for a haircut, I literally wandered into Lili.s and asked Ash if he was available to give me a haircut "that minute." Fortunately, for me he was. He sat me down, asked me about my hair, my time constraints and my styling. Then we chatted. Ash was meticulous about cutting my hair correctly. He began by cutting a quarter inch off of it while my hair was dry, then after giving my hair a bonus and much needed triple deep conditioning treatment, he cut the other 3/4 inch off and was very exacting. When I left, he asked me if I liked my cut (YES!) and reminded me that I could contact him if I woke up and felt differently (I won't). I thought that my hair was in good hands and that Ash did an amazing job. I will go back to Ash again. Thanks to the unnamed stylist who cancelled on me today! The lighting in the place made me feel ten years younger. To do tomorrow: get same lights for house. read more

See all

I gave 2 stars because you have done a good job but you really made me unhappy for keep mention about the groupon. I bought a $40 groupon for an hour European facial. I walked in and told the facial lady that I have groupon but I forgot to mention to the owner. The owner came up to me and told me that I have to tell them ahead of the time, because groupon facial length of time is different with the regular one, so to confirm, I asked her how long would it be. She was like 1 hr. OK 1 HOUR. The facial lady took me in the room at 6:30 and been talking about the skin types and products for 10 mins, THEN first she asked me what product line I use. I told her I used Le Blanc Chanel, and she went oh ppl often think brand name is good. Excuse me i am not that stupid, I dont throw my money out of the window. I use what works on my skin. Make me upset right away. But it is not to the point of madness if my facial lasts more than 30 mins. I literally timed her processes and my facial last exactly 28 mins. To Be honest it was a good facial but such a lie to tell me it will be an hour facial. I came out pretty mad and wonder if the owner can tell. I gave $20 tip to emphasize to her that dont look down at ppl, they can tell what u mean by ur behaviors. If you really wanna have a facial here dont drag ur groupon wif u. read more

I love Lili Salon! Lili has been cutting and styling my hair for about a year now and she always takes her time and listens to any concerns I may have with my many cowlicks! Lili is old school in that she treats her customers professionally, using high quality hair products, gives after care advice and individualizes her cuts to suit the client. I have often run into other clients just finishing up their service who say how happy they are with the results of her work. I feel very comfortable recommending Lili to my friends and family, read more

While it may be true that at one time Lili was a stylist for the runway, now she is focused on making as much money for her business as possible. She is expensive and unfair. The 2nd time I saw her, I had a hair cut and then went back for a coloring 3 weeks later, when we agreed together that with the color, the cut needed a little shaping. She snipped a little here and there and then charged me for a full $85 haircut. I don't want Sausalito to have this kind of reputation. Sausalito thrives on it's locals and I can tell you I won't be heading to Lili's again. read more

Fantastic colorists, professional and clean atmosphere! Highly recommend!

This is a beautiful salon. Lilli is a real pro when it comes to cut and color. I have very challenging hair - and it's hard to get it just right. Lilli spent the time to understand what I was looking for and she had suggestions for me as well. The result exceeded my expectations. And I'm fussy when it comes to my hair! read more

What a great find. Lili is so kind, fast and gives an amazing cut. I found her thru reviews on Yelp, and I was not disappointed. She fit me in 3 hours after I called her, the cut/style took only 45 minutes, and she did a fantastic job. Best Haircut in Sausalito! Definitely recommended highly. read more

Lili and her team have established themselves as one of the best salons in Marin. From the color, cut, and styling expertise Lili brings from years as a runway stylist in New York and LA, to the salon and spa team and their luxurious facials and massage treatments, to the hospitality and unique perspectives offered by Ash, this salon is outstanding. The icing on the cake is the clean, modern, and gorgeous interior of the location-- the walls are adorned with original artwork by local painters including Lili herself. read more

Lili is an artist in cutting and coloring hair. I have gone to her for years and never have to worry that she will try something new without asking me first. Plus she is a delight, so warm-hearted and the salon is filled with light. read more

I'm writing this review on behalf of my mom. I live in Sausalito and my mom was in town visiting me for a week. She found Lili S salon while wandering around town and decided to go in to get her hair dyed (shhhhh! Don't tell anyone). Her stylist was Ash and he was so so nice and welcoming. She couldn't stop talking about what an enjoyable experience it was. That's the difference between good salons and great - both salons provide a service but great salons make it an experience. We don't have great salons where we're from so this was a treat for her. Thanks for being so nice to my mom :) read more

Terrible salon, filthy and dirty, poor service, no customer service and rude front desk guy . The guy over there Arash ( his real name), uses foul language all the time as a way of looking cool. A simple haircut took him 2 hours and he couldn't do a blowdry either. I'm not sure if he has a lisence. I was there just a little over than a month ago hoping that she (Lili the owner of the salon) will compensate for their disappointing service and refund me. This is only one of her messages: "We don't have policy to refund and we don't have unhappy customers and if there is small problem they should come to fix it within 7 days . As a curtesy of our salon I can give u 20% off of my hair cut . Thank you for understanding " This is while I'd called her only a day after the service and she simply denied it. Lili had posted an ad on Groupon which she pretended she didn't know about when I called her later on. The ad was using her assumed experience, so you'd expect that's what you get, but no way! And I don't believe if someone can lie about you calling them, wouldn't lie about their experience. That day, I called the salon after work to see if they were still open since it was around 6 or 7pm. His son, the guy I mentioned, picked up the phone and said they are open so I went. In a nutshell, he messed up my hair, charged me the price of Groupon reluctantly ( they didn't want to purchase through Groupon for some reason. Maybe they know how poor their service is and they don't want anyone to leave reviews), and didn't refund me anything. She not only didn't opologize when I called her a day after, but also told me the I should feel privileged to have been there and that if I want a repair I need to pay $120 and that I'm again privileged to get a %20 off!!! On top of all that, the guy kept asking me "very" personal questions making me super uncomfortable the whole time he was working on my hair ( it was only me and him there, so imagine the tension). I'm not going back and do not recommend. Nothing is worth getting insulted and to have to deal with this kind of situation. read more

I just wanted to start off and say that Lili is the best at what she does. I am brunette and sometimes getting highlights can be a very daunting task at most salons to say the least. I've had some pretty bad experiences. Lili color corrected my hair and took out all the brass color in my hair from previous hair job done in another salon. She also added a good dimension of lowlights and highlights. It came out great although a week later after she did my hair I decided I wanted to go just a tid bit darker blonde and Lili said no problem and scheduled me to come in to tone my hair a smidgen darker. My hair looked great before it was just a matter of preference to have a more blended look. My hair looks amazing!!!! I have looked high and low for hair color expert and no one is as good as her! You definitely get what you pay for when you get your hair done at this place! I'm surprise there isn't that many reviews on her on yelp she is just fabulous and the salon has a relaxing ambiance about it! She will be my hair colorist from here on out, I don't trust anyone else in Marin! read more

Lili is amazing! I walked in 2 years ago with a horrible cut and color job from a very expensive salon in San Fran. She fixed it on the spot! I always get compliments on my cut and color and carry her business cards around with me now! I highly recommend a visit to Lili. She will listen to what you want and make recommendations on what she thinks will look best on you. read more

My favorite stylist has just joined the team at Lili's Salon & Spa. I went for the first time yesterday and found the space is light and airy, with a relaxing atmosphere and great service. Aimee of course was her fabulous self, saving the ends of my hair from a summer of stress and sun and leaving is bouncy, healthy and looking good. I would definitely recommend giving the folks at Lili's a try! read more

I really like Aimee. Followed her here from another salon and have stuck with her for a while!

I have been to Lilis twice now and have had the pleasure of having Lili cut my hair both times. She has done and incredible job!! She will give wonderful suggestions and I have never received so many compliments on a haircut. Major improvements from my usual simple trim to long hair as Lili knows how to style your hair even if youre like me who sticks to washing and letting your hair air dry and usually putting your hair up. I've now been wearing my hair down daily and it feels GREAT!! I called last week to get a last minute haircut before a trip and Lili herself stayed to make sure she could accommodate me. I definitely suggest coming here as you will not be disappointed. read more

Lili is excellent at making you not only LOOK your best, but feel your best as well. I am currently preparing for a major publicity stint as I launch my brand new website and needed HELP. Lili gave me the most amazing highlights and cut. The colour is exactly what I was looking for and now I'm ready to shine. I found Lili's salon when I first moved to Sausalito some years back and have never been disappointed. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants a great cut and fabulous colour DONE RIGHT. read more

I love Lilli, she took time to take me when I did not have any appointment. I went for a style, cut and shampoo. I will be back...

I've been to many salons in Marin and Sacramento and Lili S Salon is hands down my favorite salon!!! Always super nice on the phone and the best service throughout the whole process. Highly recommended!! read more

I have happily been getting my hair cut by Lili for the past 8 years. Recently I moved out of the area and tried to find a replacement. I tried three different stylists and could not get a haircut anywhere near the caliber of haircut that Lili gives me. I recently made an appointment and flew back so that Lili could cut my hair. LOVE it! Lili is very gifted and has a way of cutting and styling that is par only to a New York stylist. If you are from New York you will know what I mean. Thanks Lili! read more

Lili is a true artist. Lili has given me the best haircuts and highlights I have ever had! I like beach blonde highlights and she gets is better then I could even imagine every time. I always leave looking sunkissed! Her highlights last for months too. I am grateful to be her client!I have loved my service so much that she now cuts my husband's hair and Ash cuts my daughter's hair! read more

Amazing Aimee - I followed Aimee Nazarian from her previous salon. She works miracles with my hair. I trust her implicitly. She listens to me, then I listen to her recommendations, and my hair and I have never looked better. She is an amazing colorist and is excellent with eyebrows, as well. And, she makes waxing as quick and painless as it can be. read more

I wanted a new look and you did an extraordinary job. I'll bring my friends pretty soon. I feel happy when they ask me, where did you go? who did the change? :) read more

I have scheduled a 12:30 appointment at this place because it's a block a way from my house. I got quoted a price and after that I added the appointment to my calendar. This was for my wedding. They forgot about my appointment and when I showed up had no immediate availability. Wow. read more

Despite the owner squeezing me in to do my hair and make-up, she was very, very expensive and the make-up shades/colors did not coordinate with my dress. Overall, not a great experience. read more

I cannot comment on hair colorist or cutting, but never ever even consider going her for any sort of waxing....they completely removed half of one of my eyebrows! your worst nightmare. and they got so much wax in the other brow it took them ages and a lot or rubbing to remove it all. as for the underarms....and I'm not a hairy person at all.....they left half of the hair despite applying wax about 10 times to each armpit. I honestly can say this was the worstl waxing experience I've ever had. read more

I can't say enough about Lili and her talents. I have thin, fine hair that likes to arrange itself in random curls. Lili has created a style for me that makes the best of all the challenges my hair presents. I've never had such consistently good and flattering haircuts, the type of haircut that falls into place even without styling. When it comes to color, Lili has an artistic eye. I've had great color, high lights and low lights. She's indulged my crazy style with some fun colors and makes everything beautiful. She's open to ideas and feedback and if you don't know what you want, you can trust her to design a style that makes you look your best. read more
