The hair wash scalp massage alone was next level! I joked that I'd come back every week just for that I've wanted to go shorter for a while, but other stylists have talked me out of it. McKenna was so open to the idea and cut it in a way that felt short enough to try something new, but still long enough to grow out easily if I decide to. Don't let the "assistant" title fool you when booking. She's seriously talented. Take a look at her IG and you'll see! The salon itself is gorgeous and super clean. Booking online was easy, which I loved, and there's plenty of parking. I'll definitely be back!

I had highlights done by Lauren at Kate Lane Salon this past Saturday. Before the service, I was…read morevery clear about what I wanted: very natural, sun-kissed, barely-there highlights with soft blending. I specifically told her I did not want anything stripey, chunky, or with any yellow/gold/brassy tones. Unfortunately, the result was the complete opposite of what we discussed. The highlights came out noticeably chunky and stripey, with harsh lines, poor blending, and a distinct brassy yellow tone that makes my hair look damaged and unnatural. I've never had a salon service turn out this poorly before. Lauren herself was kind and professional during the appointment, and I believe she tried her best. However, the final result does not match what was agreed upon, and it has left my previously healthy virgin hair looking compromised. I reached out to Kate Lane management the next business day with photos from multiple angles showing the issues (patchy application, thick streaks, harsh lines, and brassy color). I politely explained that I was too upset to return for a correction and requested a full refund for the highlighting service. They have refused to issue any refund. I'm extremely disappointed in both the quality of the work and the salon's unwillingness to stand behind their service when it clearly did not meet the client's explicit instructions. This experience has cost me time, money, and confidence. I would have still returned to the salon for regular haircuts and to purchase hair products if management had handled this situation differently. I have had my haircut here many times and it was always a nice experience. Unfortunately, I cannot even recommend them for that anymore. Customer service is everything and this situation was not handled fairly or appropriately. I would not recommend Kate Lane Salon for color services, especially highlights. Proceed with caution -- or better yet, go somewhere else.

I got Mari who did a wash and blow dry last minute today which is a Friday. She's cute and her hair is so curly. I wanted my hair to look like hers but her curling iron broke so she couldn't finish my hair the way I like it, she also charged me full price which is $65. I feel like that was a lot for a half blowout! She said her time was up so she needed to leave since it was 5:30 PM Cute clean salon in San Clemente and easy parking

The location is beautiful and the inside of the salon is so aesthetically pleasing.

I was a pro surfer and never highlighted my hair because the sun did it naturally. First colorist I…read moreworked with made a mess and left me with copper penny orange. Researched and found Wheeler Davis which was new in town. Called and told the owner I needed a color correction and wanted to be a regular client. He booked me with the walk in stylist so I booked a consult only. After talking to the stylist I realized she knew her stuff and the salon was missing a hidden treasure. Explained to the stylist I wanted high & low lights without doing too much damage. The stylist told me it would take approximately 5 services to correct my hair to cause the least amount of damage and was so comfortable I let her proceed. She asked me to bring in photos to the next appointment of colors I liked and selected together my final color. I noted the owners treated the staff poorly and snooty to the clients. They had didn't great client's warmly, didn't offer water or beverages and the place had an unpleasant vibe to it. A few months later over half the stylists, including mine all walked out because of how they were treated. I followed my new stylist and have been with her ever since. I have heard Lo is only interested in the Who's Who and famous people in the surfing world. WELL Lo darling...I'm in the Hall Of Surfing Fame, am featured in 2 surfing books, have photos in many surf museums, exhibits and am a member of WISA, WSA, ESA and ASP. Kelly Slater grew up surfing with me and my friends are surfers whose names everybody knows.

Amazing gals here, 10/10 recommend for your future salon needs.

Mari Hernandez, Artist & Founder…read more I truly can't say enough good things about Mari and the experience she's created. From the moment you walk in, it feels less like a salon and more like spending a relaxing weekend with friends. First--practically speaking--the hair washing sinks are actually comfortable (no neck pain!), and everything smells amazing. Mari takes the time to explain the products she uses and the companies behind them, which makes the whole experience feel thoughtful and intentional. The space itself is beautiful--light-filled, beachy, and clearly curated with care. A lot of the decor feels personal or handmade, and she showcases artwork, jewelry, and crafts from local artists. You can tell she genuinely cares about supporting her community. There are even framed prints of her sister's stunning beach photography, which adds such a special touch. There's also a cozy patio with comfortable seating and a big umbrella where you can relax--I even caught a monarch butterfly drifting along Mariposa Street while I was there, which somehow perfectly matched the vibe. Inside, the natural light, music, and overall atmosphere create a full sensory experience. Between the calming playlists, the scent of the products, and the aesthetic of the space, it's incredibly easy to just sink in and relax. And then there's Mari herself. She has this rare ability to understand exactly what you want--even if you can't quite articulate it. I tend to describe things with vague phrases and hand gestures, and she somehow translates that into results that exceed my expectations every time. She remembers your hair, your preferences, and even what's going on in your life, which makes you feel genuinely cared for. She also meets you exactly where you are energy-wise. Whether you want to chat or just zone out (I'm definitely the "touch my scalp and I'm in a sleepy trance" type), she intuitively adjusts. Somehow, even when we do talk, it feels energizing rather than draining. On top of that, her technique is incredible--having her dry your hair is honestly so relaxing it feels (and looks!) like someone gently playing the harp. I first fell in love with Mari's work at her previous salon, and when she opened her own space nearby, following her was an easy decision. She's created something really special--an environment where you feel comfortable, understood, and taken care of from start to finish. Everyone who walks in seems genuinely happy to be there, and that says a lot. Also, the playlists? Perfect every time. I always leave wanting to recreate them at home. If you're looking for more than just a haircut--if you want an experience--this is it.

I cannot say enough about what a fantastic job she has done with helping me regrow the sides of my hair. Unlike most women who have extensions for length, I got extensions to fill in patches of hair where I was experiencing hair loss, and that was on the sides of my head around my ears. I was forced to keep my hair short for years to cover for it, but with the help of Melissa and extensions, I can actually grow my hair long. Melissa consulted with me and how we could do it and make it look natural, she selected the right colors to fill in, and really she gave me back my confidence. I've been doing extensions with her for almost 2 years now. I started out with tape-in, and then she suggested that I try K tip for longevity and just for general wear and tear since I travel a lot for business. I am absolutely thrilled with the results. She makes my hair look very natural and and the way she cuts them makes them, you would never know that I had extensions. Not only is she a beautiful person inside and out, she's a miracle worker who has really helped me gain my confidence, learn how to do my hair again, and feel pretty and feminine. If I could give her 11 stars, I would!
