My experience was the best, especially with Angela! The salon itself is very nice and everyone there made the environment so good! There's complimentary snacks and drinks as well. As for my haircut, Angela was very sweet and did an amazing job with my hair. I've also had updos done by her for proms I've went to, and they turned out great and lasted the whole night! Would definitely recommend to anyone!! read more

I've been seeing Gabriela for a few years while I grew out my dyed hair, and she has always been so patient and thorough. I tried out curtain bangs when I was overseas that I ended up not loving and after they grew out, Gabriela was able to seamlessly blend everything / follow the original cut. I LOVE her attention to detail and she's always so thorough!! I also appreciate how she'll analyze my hair and let me know her recommendations before we commit to the cut. My hair looks so shiny and healthy now, and I always leave feeling so happy with it. I'll never stray from Gabriela again!!! read more

First time at salon and using a new hair stylist. Gabriella was professional and so helpful with my transition to short hair. She kept me informed each step of the way. I loved how my hair turned out and I would highly recommend her. read more

I had a great experience with Halia as originally I came in for another date, with another stylist, but I came in on the wrong day and my stylist happened to be sick. Call it divine intervention, but I think it was meant to be because I had a total hair transformation with Halia! She made me feel comfortable, was super nice, and I was able to tell her all my hair struggles. I have not gotten a haircut in a minute so this was definitely a treat for myself, and she made sure to give her 200%. She walked me throughout the whole haircut and to the styling. Everyone is super sweet inside the salon as they ask you if you want drinks (they got lots of options!) I will be back again for my next haircut, and probably add in some extensions or color. read more

I've been going to Limon and Angela for a year now. I look forward to my curly haircuts as having someone who knows how to cut curly hair is valuable. I've also been getting complimentary bang trims (one complimentary trim between haircuts) and Angela recommended I get another bang trim in between (for a cost) and so I got one. This is the healthiest my hair has been and the longest. Angela is happy that my hair is getting longer and said we can do more things with it! I really love this salon. They are top notch for a reason and it's worth every penny. read more

I had such a great experience at Limón Salon, especially with Maura! The salon itself is really nice and has such a great selection of complimentary snacks and beverages, including coffee, which was such a nice touch. Maura was incredibly kind and really took the time to understand what I wanted with my haircut. I sometimes have a hard time describing exactly what I'm looking for, but she asked all the right questions and was able to understand what I meant. The haircut turned out perfectly and was exactly what I was hoping for. She also styled it beautifully! I walked out of the salon feeling so happy and confident with my hair. I would definitely recommend Maura! read more

I appreciate your response, but I feel that the main issue I have been trying to communicate is still being overlooked. I'm not sure why Martha continues to be referenced throughout your response as though she is my regular stylist or someone I routinely see. My concern was that I specifically wanted the person who had most recently done my hair, and I was not properly informed ahead of my appointment that she would not be there. That is a separate issue from the actual result of the service. More importantly, this is not simply a situation where I "didn't like the result" and was offered an adjustment. I clearly communicated what I wanted, showed pictures, and specifically stated that I did NOT want my hair to be dark. I wanted to maintain a light result. Instead, my hair was taken significantly darker than what I had requested. What is especially frustrating is that even during the appointment, the stylist recognized that something was not right. She took me back to the bowl and rinsed my hair out. That is important because it shows that this was not something I brought up after leaving the salon simply because I changed my mind about the result. What I am still not hearing from your response is any acknowledgment that the result was not what I asked for or that the stylist recognized there was an issue with what had been done. Instead, the response continues to focus on the fact that the service was completed and therefore payment was required. I understand that the service was performed and that is not what I am disputing. I am disputing the outcome of the service and the fact that it did not reflect what I clearly requested. A service being completed does not change the fact that the result was not what I asked for. At this point, I also do not feel comfortable having additional color work done at the salon simply to try to correct what happened. I came in trusting that my hair would be kept light, communicated that I did not want to go dark, and left feeling that my concerns were not being taken seriously. I am asking that you please reconsider the refund based on the circumstances of the appointment rather than continuing to characterize this as simply a completed service that I was dissatisfied with. The bottom line is that I am not looking for another stylist to tell me how they can fix it. I am looking for the salon to acknowledge what actually happened and take responsibility for the fact that the result did not match what I clearly communicated I wanted. read more

It's so rare for me to leave a salon genuinely happy with my haircut that I used to dread getting my hair cut altogether. I'm almost never fully satisfied with the outcome, but Gabriela is truly amazing! She's so good that I drive all the way from the East Bay just to sit in her chair. She's incredibly patient, understanding, and attentive to every detail. Normally, I leave a salon already thinking about how I'll need to restyle my hair once I get home, but Gabriela gets it right every single time! I always get so many compliments on my hair and I actually get excited for my appointments. If you're looking for someone who truly listens, understands your hair and is incredibly skilled, Gabriela is the one! read more

I always have a great experience when I come here, from the moment I walk in all the way until I walk out. The service is wonderful. I've been seeing Gabriela and she always does an amazing job layering my hair. She is super attentive and makes sure to check in frequently to make sure we are on the same page. Gabriela is super skilled and so kind. I highly recommend Limon salon! read more

Gabriela did an excellent job transitioning my hair from shoulder length w/ layers to this bob! She also approached the hair cut and styling of my hair as a way to show me how to style my hair. Given I have very thick hair I am very happy with how my hair turned out. Thank you, Gabriela read more

Angela is amazing! She spent time to figure out what would work best for me, even added extra time last minute to do some color. The salon has a really nice vibe and they are very good at communicating if there are any delays in advance. read more

Bless Sky's hands! She is immensely talented with scissors and gave me a wonderful haircut. I'm 42, and have cowlicks and not great facial symmetry. Thus, I've always found it difficult to get a stylist to really hear me out on what I know looks best on Me. My last style ended up being a wolf cut, which I hated and had to let grow out for 7 months. Fast forward to meeting with sky, who heard me out, and came up with a plan w/ me to let some of the extra layers I wanted gone, grow out, and get some awesome curtain bangs for a refresh (in the meantime). She nailed it. I'll be booking with her in the future, and I highly recommend her services. Plus she's a sweetheart! read more

This review is for ISIS- I have a girl who I trust with my haircuts wholeheartedly but I haven't found somebody I trust coloring my hair UNTIL NOW! After researching salons in my area I came across Limon. I checked out their yelp and Instagram to see their work. My first consultation was with Kimmy but she referred me to Isis. After my consultation I was nervous but decided to have faith and went forward with my appointment one week later. I haven't had my hair colored since Oct 2024. I let my roots grow out but the bottom portion of my hair was still blond ish. My natural hair color is dark brown and I wanted to go 2 to 3 shades lighter with subtle highlights throughout. I showed inspo pictures as a reference but most of it was verbalizing what I wanted. I was in the chair from 10:30 AM to 4:50PM. It was worth it because now I love my hair! I haven't loved my hair in a long time-thank you Isis! The woman at the front desk is very friendly and offers you something to drink when you check in. The salon is well kept and pretty big inside. Plenty of parking in the back with spots reserved for Limon customers. For those curious about pricing-my service was $540 read more

I booked a Luxe cut with Alyssa and had a fantastic time. I walked her through my hair care routine and she provided suggestions on how to improve. I felt heard every step of the way from wash, cut, to style. If there were any changes I wanted, she was receptive and followed through. I can't recommend Alyssa or this salon enough. read more

I had such a wonderful experience at Limón with Martha. She was very patient and really listened to my hairstory and experiences at other salons. After years of blowdrying on high, flat ironing, teasing and generally punishing my fine locks, my hair is on the thinner side and just not as vibrant as it was years ago. I don't cut my hair very often. It's hard for me to trust stylists because so many of them just want to cut it all off and give me the standard layers with framing around my face which I really hate, so it takes all year to grow back. Well, meeting Martha at Limón really made me think that I may have found a stylist that understood. She listened and gave thoughtful, patient suggestions of what had worked for other clients. She understood that although I know I needed to cut off a good chunk of hair, I needed to take it slow. She gave me options, cutting off a bit then after blow drying, let me take a look and decide if I wanted to take off more. Seeing it dry made all the difference and I decided to take off a bit more and felt good about it. Often times I'll leave a salon thinking that it's ok only to get home and realize that too much had been cut and I'd have to wait months and months for it to grow back. Not this time. I felt good about it when I left, and days later when I washed and styled it myself which is kind of rare for me:) The salon is in a convenient location and has great snacks and drinks for their clients. They have a friendly atmosphere and an upbeat, stylish vibe that feels good without being pretentious. Looking forward to my next appointment. See you soon, Martha! read more

I got California blonde service with Vanessa. As promised the service took a bit over six hours, but it was totally worth it. I had ombré but wanted to have even hair color. Vanessa was able to make color look even. I like the salon overall, the staff is friendly and welcoming. read more

This is my first time going to this salon and hands down absolutely love this salon. I got layered hair with light wispy bangs with 90s inspiration on my straight-wavy mid length hair and it looks amazing. I went home and the next day when I showered it looked so good even unstyled. I went to Kimi! and she provided such good service and complimentary drinks and a fun conversation! So friendly and my hair smells so good! Im excited to come back again soon :) read more

Limón Salon - don't mind my face lol but i looove my hair!! kimi did so good! - Hair Salons Near Me - San Jose, California

I went to Limon Salon with an inspiration photo and asked the stylist if my hair could realistically do that style. I have been going to this salon for years with a different stylist and have never had a bad experience until this time, which is why this was especially disappointing. Communication was not very clear, but at first the cut looked cute, just longer than what I had asked for. While I was still in the chair, I mentioned that I wanted it closer to the length of the photo, so she cut it shorter. After it was styled and curled, I realized it was still bouncing off my shoulders and not the length or shape I had asked for. I went back in and asked if it could be taken a little shorter, and they scheduled me for the next day, which I appreciated. When I returned, I again asked if my hair could do the inspiration photo and brought up whether a stacked shape might work better since my hair is very limp. I specifically said I did not want it super angled, and the stylist said they would not angle it like that. Unfortunately, once she started cutting, there was very little explanation of what she was doing. I thought she was creating the base shape and would add layers afterward, but by the time she got to the front, I realized she had cut off the longer front pieces I wanted to keep. The end result was not what I asked for. Instead of the soft, shaped, layered look from the photo, I ended up with a very blunt, straight, flat cut with no real layers or movement. I left feeling shocked and disappointed. I would have been okay with the original haircut being a little different from the photo, but after going back, I ended up with neither the inspiration cut nor the original version that had at least looked cute. Afterward, I emailed the contact for the manager to explain what happened. The response felt dismissive and honestly a little rude. I was basically told that I could not get a new haircut, which was confusing because I had asked the stylist beforehand whether my hair could do the style, and she never told me it could not or that the changes I wanted would create a totally different result. I was not upset because they could not magically give me a new haircut; I was upset because the communication was poor, the final result was not what I asked for, and the response afterward made me feel like I was being blamed for it. Overall, this was really upsetting because I have had good experiences at Limon Salon in the past. I wish there had been more communication before major changes were made, especially since I repeatedly asked whether my hair could achieve the inspiration style. The salon was nice about scheduling me to come back initially, but the final haircut did not match what I requested, and the follow-up made the experience feel even worse. read more

I have been going to Limon Salon since November of 2024, and I can't imagine going anywhere else. After countless hours of research and wanting to find a place which knows how to deal with curly hair, I found Limon. I bookmarked it on Yelp and counted the days to my very first appointment. & wow, it did not disappoint. To begin, the salon itself is wonderful, the space and vibe is extremely welcoming. Everyone is kind, and always offering drinks or light snacks which is a sweet touch... I highly, highly recommend Karla! She has always done such an extraordinary job with my hair, and is super knowledgeable of what we can do with it since I am always wanting to try a new shade of red at almost every appointment. When I arrived for my very first appointment, my hair was DARK BROWN! She took my Inspo images, and landed it in the most stunning hair color I have ever had in my life. Not only that, but she has also done an incredible job with cutting and layering my hair. I have very thick, curly hair, like... a lot of hair, so it had always been a struggle for me to find someone who knew how to cut it. She puts so much attention into every detail, making sure we both love and are happy with the end result. I've always been more than satisfied with every appointment we've had, and I think Limon Salon is definitely the place you should go. If you've been thinking about it, let me tell you, it's soo worth it! read more

Been here several times and have had the same experience every time. This is NOT a high-end salon although they charge the same amount as if it were. Instead of the stylist's analyzing your hair texture and adjusting the cut they give you some cookie cutter cut and charge high dollar. I won't be back. Do better, no matter what the response is from the owner, this will not change my opinion. Been there 3 times and all 3 times I absolutely hated the cut and they did not pay attention to my hair texture at all. read more

I've come back twice more since my last review, so wanted to update this! My last two sessions were with Alyssa. HAIRCUT: I had a lovely haircut by Alyssa in April, and my results are still stellar in August. The layers are visibly present, the hair feels healthy and light. I'm really impressed and already have my next haircut booked with her in October! SERVICE: She's great at making conversation, chatting, and making you feel welcome in her chair. I felt very pampered and relaxed throughout both sessions. CUSTOMIZATION: The best part about Alyssa, for me, was her attentiveness. I was experiencing a scalp issue this summer so I reached out to her on Instagram. She was able to design a treatment for me that felt wonderful and has really helped fix some issues with my hair. She also gave me samples to take home and overall gave a lot of attention to my issue. I'm really grateful to have found Alyssa! read more

I had the pleasure of seeing Kimi yesterday, and I can confidently say she is one of the most honest and genuine hair specialists I've ever encountered. From the moment I sat in her chair, I could tell she wasn't just another stylist looking to make a quick sale--she genuinely cared about the health of my hair and my overall experience, both inside the salon and after I walked out the door. Over the years, I've had many salon experiences where stylists were quick to tell me everything was fine--even when my hair was clearly thinning or falling out more than it should have been. They'd reassure me it was "normal" and proceed with dyes, highlights, bleach--whatever I requested--without truly considering the long-term damage. Unfortunately, I'd often leave those appointments thinking everything was okay, only to experience even more hair loss in the weeks that followed. It became a cycle of frustration, regret, and emotional stress, especially as a woman who simply wanted to feel confident and look her best. But Kimi was different. She took the time to assess the condition of my hair thoroughly, asked questions, and listened to my concerns with compassion and empathy. She acknowledged the hair loss I was experiencing and, instead of brushing it off or suggesting a treatment that could worsen it, she was upfront with me: chemical processing at this time could do more harm than good. She explained everything clearly and gave thoughtful recommendations to help restore my hair's health before considering anything more aggressive. That honesty meant everything to me. Kimi wasn't focused on making a sale--she was focused on building trust. She understood, woman to woman, how deeply personal and emotional hair loss can be. We all want to look and feel good, and hair plays such a huge role in that. She didn't minimize my concerns or try to upsell me on expensive treatments. She made me feel seen, heard, and respected--something that's surprisingly rare in the beauty industry. I told her I'd follow her advice and try the products and strategies she recommended. Once my hair feels stronger and healthier, I'll absolutely be back to see her. It's not easy to find someone in this industry who leads with integrity and honesty, but Kimi does--and that alone speaks volumes about her professionalism and character. When someone cares more about your well-being than your wallet, you know you've found a real gem. I left that salon feeling hopeful and empowered, not just about my hair but about finally having found someone I can trust. If you're looking for a stylist who genuinely has your best interest at heart, I cannot recommend Kimi enough. She is thoughtful, knowledgeable, honest, and kind--qualities that make her not only a talented hair specialist but also a truly compassionate professional. Thank you, Kimi, for being a rare light in this industry. I'm so grateful I found you, and I look forward to coming back when the time is right. read more

Angela is the BEST hairstylist artist I've worked with. My texture and curls are really unique and I came to her with a very bad haircut and layers that Ive been trying to grown out.
