From the moment I sat in Chelsea's chair, the entire experience felt elevated. I've had Brazilian blowouts, color, and cuts before--but nothing compares to the level of care, precision, and comfort Chelsea provides. Her touch is incredibly gentle. Every step is intentional, never rushed, and you can feel that she truly respects both your hair and your body. I never once felt tugging, discomfort, or fatigue--just calm, ease, and trust. She creates an environment where you can fully relax, which is rare and invaluable. The Brazilian blowout itself is next-level. My hair is impossibly shiny, smooth, and healthy, not weighed down or overly flat. The results last, and even weeks later my hair still looks polished, frizz-free, and luxurious with minimal effort. It feels strong, nourished, and alive. Her color work is equally stunning--rich, dimensional, and perfectly tailored. Chelsea has an eye for what enhances your features and skin tone, not just what's trendy. The cut is flawless: balanced, intentional, and styled in a way that grows out beautifully. What truly sets Chelsea apart is how comfortable and cared for she makes you feel. This isn't just a hair appointment--it's a luxury experience. Thoughtful conversation, calming energy, and an attention to detail that makes you feel like the only client that matters. read more

Milla The Space - My smooth hair after Brazilian blow out - Hair Stylists Near Me - San Diego, California

214$ FOR A BLOWOUT + tip = 254$ Im so confused if you have short hair why would anyone think this price tag is okay? Then again I went through some reviews and saw they like to do a little jump scare and charge you more than what they initially said they would. I would not recommend this business. read more

Milla The Space - Hair Stylists Near Me - San Diego, California

I HIGHLY WARN anyone to have any service done from this salon. I flew from NYC. I trusted this salon with my hair. I booked a "Full Head of Highlights" & "Tape-in Extension Consultation" DO NOT GO to this salon with high quality standards. Upon arrival to the salon, I was shocked at how clumsy the stylist was. Jenny dropped her foiling board onto me. Then my forehead started to burn from beach. One of the foils she had done was not formulated correctly and the consistency was too loose to stay inside the foils. It leaked out on the forehead and she left it there. She tried to fix this by grabbing 2 of the foils on the top of my head and crumbling more foil onto it with force. In resulted in the foils having too much weight and falling out onto me 3 more times. Making a lot of tension on my hair. I had to ask her if I could please wash off the bleach that she just let sit on my bare skin. I had an allergic reaction. She was the only one at the salon. She had to call the owner multiple times. The owner did not come to help train her on the proper procedure. The stylist then gave me a Benadryl. The salon had no first aid. I had to sit there for the remainder of the appointment with a wet paper towel held in place to prevent a serious chemical reaction. Jenny assured me she used my inspiration reference photo as she was doing my hair and to my surprise when she was finished she had not understood the highlight reference. Prior to the appointment the owner requested photos of my hair and inspiration for reference. I sent her detailed photos of my current hair without extensions in natural sunlight. I sent detailed reference videos and photos. The reference photos I sent were of my exact hair I had last Summer 2022. The owner and the stylist both confirmed the details prior to my appointment and assured me they were capable of achieving the desired result. The reference photos were not followed during my appointment. I had a lengthy in person consultation prior to my appointment. During this consultation the stylist, Jenny, did not communicate or articulate that she lacked the experience or skillset to execute what was needed. She gave me what she called a "Lived in Blonde" which consisted of randomly placed, splotchy, uneven, brassy, blonde streaks. It looked nothing like what I requested. In summary, please be Cautious and WARNED. I was shocked when the stylist had no training or experience and was left alone at the salon. She was not trained in the proper hair services, inventory, products, extension haircare or styling. I gave Jenny my current hair extensions I brought with me so that she could properly color match my exact tone. She did nothing with them but wash them. I brought them only for her to match. Jenny gave them back to me at the end of my appointment wet. If she was properly trained she would know that leaving extensions wet will ruin the integrity of the hair. I informed her that I am traveling from Manhattan and do not have my Dyson with me to properly dry the extensions. I informed her that I usually leave them with the stylist during the Tape-In ordering process to precisely color match and purchase the correct volume of hair needed. I expressed to her the exact extensions I usually purchase and sent detailed reference photos and videos prior to my appointment to the stylist and the owner for confirmation. I highly warn anyone who is invested in the quality of their natural hair and the artistry of hair extension services to stay way from this business. This salon is no where near the level of expertise needed to execute what they claim. HORRIBLE. Shameful. customer service. read more

If you are going here for hair extensions, please make sure you are cautious and educated beforehand about pricing and how they will place your extensions. read more

I booked an appointment for extensions plus a haircut through Vagaro with Chelsea and several days before the appointment I received an email stating that a consultation was needed first. That's fine, no problem. I had already purchased several wefts through Glamseamless but probably needed a little more. I emailed Chelsea immediately back and told her such then attempted to contact her several times throughout the remainder of the day and the following to request that she cancel the appointment on her end because I was having trouble doing so through Vagaro. At this point the appointment had not been "accepted" so all was well as the salon has to accept the booking in order for any payment and fees to be deducted from my account and since I'd been contacted and told by Chelsea a consult was needed prior to application and I'd definitely made my desires known and requested to have the appointment cancelled, I DEFINITELY DID NOT EXPECT TO SEE $332 WITHDRAWN FROM MY BANK ACCOUNT ON FRIDAY. Not only did Chelsea go ahead and "accept" the booking on Friday at 12:30, shortly before my appointment which had been scheduled at 2:00, which incidentally charged me the full $332 price for extension application, haircut and a tip - she also did so AFTER multiple communications, notices and requests from my end clearly voicing my desire for cancellation. After a year of COVID-19, an extremely difficult pregnancy and the birth of my first child, all I've wanted to do for so, so long was finally get my hair done and get extensions at that! Something I've always wanted to do but always talked myself out of. Now my fund has been massively depleted and essentially stolen from me in the most scandalous, greedy and selfish way. I am so upset and dismayed at the entire situation and experience. read more

Extremely disappointed and quite honestly sad regarding how my hair turned out. Let me explain...I've been getting hair extensions since 2013 so I have a lot of experience. I recently moved to San Diego and picked Chelsea because she had 5 stars so I thought she'd be a pro. Her technique is good but unfortunately she didn't have a lot of hair colors and I relied on her to pick one that was the closest to my natural hair color and it was more of an ash brown and just totally wrong. See picture it's the layer of brown hair on the bottom. It doesn't blend at all. I texted her to see if she could fix it and she never even responded after 36 hours. It's heartbreaking to pay $820 for one row of extensions and not even be able to wear my hair down because it looks so bloody obvious. read more

Milla The Space - The hair doesn't blend. Why didn't she say something? How could she let me leave with this deviation? It's awful. - Hair Stylists Near Me - San Diego, California

I discovered this salon through Jenny Low, who was promoting discounted hair services on Facebook. I have been wanting to go blonde (from light brunette) for some time now so I reached out. We started talking via messenger and she was quick to respond and easy to schedule with. I sent photos of what I was interested in and she said the price would be $195. She disclosed that she had just graduated her program but was confident she could do the color I wanted. The next day she messaged me and apologized and stated the salon owner wanted $255 for the service - still not bad for going blonde, so I set an appointment. Before the appointment I get a message saying we might not be able to go as light as I want but guaranteed it wouldn't be over $300. I was starting to get skeptical but agreed to come in for a consultation. The salon was nice, the coffee they offered me was good, and the snacks were a nice touch...but those are the only good things I can say about this salon. I was in the chair for 7 hours and my hair was nearly ruined. I was charged over $400 and when I asked if I could just pay for the product as I was incredibly dissatisfied with the result the owner told me they had a no refund policy. They offered to let me come in again and pay another $500 to have them fix my hair. When I said that was not an option for me they said they would remove the toner for free but my hair would be orange. It wasn't even necessarily the color I was upset about - it was the streaky/blocky lines of bleach in my hair. I was so embarrassed. I went back and forth with them and they refused to refund me. Jenny messaged me and apologized and said she wanted to do something but it was the salon owner's policy. The salon owner defended herself saying Jenny is a new stylist which I understand but stand by your salon and the image you portray by letting a client leave in tears with their hair destroyed. I was lucky enough to find an artist to fix my hair. She was so shocked when she saw what Jenny did and even asked for the salons number to reach out as a fellow stylist and tell them it was unfair what they did and I should not have been charged. They did not respond to her and Jenny and the salon blocked me on social media. All I want is for this salon to do the right thing. I have offered to pay for the product and am just asking for a refund for the service. It is heartbreaking that I had to go to another salon and pay for my hair to be fixed. I am shocked that they lack simple compassion... The attached photos are what I started with and what I left the salon with. read more

Chelsea does the absolute most amazing job! I'm a natural dark brunette but always like the look of lighter hair and she always knows how to make the color perfect and perfectly toned so it is never brassy. She's the first stylist that makes me love my hair and I always feel great after getting it done! She's truly a color expert!! After a couple months of seeing her I also decided to get tape in extensions! I love them so much as well! She knows exactly where to position them to fill in areas that I had breakage so it looks most natural, and did a great job color matching them so my friends can't even tell where my real hair starts or stops. She's the best! read more

I had been looking for a hairstylist for a while because I wanted a balayage, but there's not many people who can do it well. A really good balayage takes true artistic talent and I'm so glad that I found Chelsea! I found her Instagram page where she posts all of her work and every picture of her client's hair transformations were so so beautiful! I knew I could trust her with my hair and to really capture what I wanted my hair to look like. I also went to Chelsea for my tape in extensions and this was my first time getting extensions so I was nervous about the whole process. But Chelsea guided me through everything and what to expect and once she put them in, omg I couldn't believe I had such gorgeous & voluminous hair! I always had thin, flat hair and wanted extensions to add volume...well I definitely got that! I started with 2 packs of 16" but not long after I wanted longer hair so I got the 20" pack and THAT was life changing. I recommend Chelsea to all of my friends whenever they ask me who does my hair. I truly trust her opinion on what looks good/suits me and she always makes sure that I look AND feel my best! It's very hard to find a hairstylist that you can really connect with and trust, but I found that connection so easily with Chelsea. Seriously, do yourself and your hair a favor and go see her! read more

Milla The Space - OMG ! Dream hair achieved - Hair Stylists Near Me - San Diego, California

This review is long overdue. I usually don't write reviews ( due to laziness) you get the point. Let's get to the point. I've been going to Chelsea Glam Salon now known as Milla the Salon for over 6 years now (I think) I've followed Chelsea when she was working in other Salon in downtown, eventually moving to her own suite and now opening her own Salon. She always provided me excellent service, educate me about hair condition, coloring ans listen to my hair concerns and expectations and letting me know if my expectations are realistic. We grow from me having henna dye in my hair to me having the color of my dreams. She is also patient in working with my hair to achieve the color I want by not rushing the process because she truely cares about the condition of my hair. The products she uses in her salon are also of good quality, my hair always looks and feels healthy after leaving her salon. She also doesn't push you to buy products but educate you on the healthier products that you can use. Thank you Milla the Salon and I look forward to be pampered by you guys soon! read more

I have been going to Chelsea for the last 3-4 years hands down one of the most exceptional hair stylists and people to know. She is vibrant the minute you walk into the salon, her skills are amazing.. She actually listens to what I want and sometimes can sway me in a different direction out of my comfort zone. I have always had an amazing experience! I would give her more than a 10/10 if it was an option. :) read more

Where do I begin? The salon is located inside the Phenix salon suites! Easy parking and easy to find. I've known Chelsea for a while and have always watched and admired the way she transformed hair.(i had a hair stylist and was committed) Until i got my hair fried off! See photos below. I called Chelsea in a panic and she immediately calmed me down and comforted me. Brought me in and 4 hours later fixed my hair. Lost a few inches but would have lost MORE if Chelsea wasn't the one doing my hair. She saved my hair, saved me inches and now i can walk down the street without a hat on or my hair in a bun ashamed. She is a color specialist! She knows what she's doing! read more

I had called the salon asking for Rhiannon to cut my hair for the $70 price I saw on the website and the owner Chelsea said that she was not available but would cut my hair herself, so I made the appointment. After my haircut (cutting an inch of my thin, fine hair) and just blow drying it without styling, I was stunned to hear the total for my service before tip was $200. I understand you are the owner and you may believe you can charge whatever based off your "experience" but you need to disclose this over the phone, especially given it's almost 3x the amount that the other stylist charges. The hair looks great and I'm happy with my results, but based on my experience I will never be returning. Chelsea, you are losing out on repeat customers based on your inability to be upfront and transparent with your insane prices. After spending $240 after tipping for a hair trim, I feel robbed and confused. read more

Chelsea is fantastic! I contacted her to schedule an appointment for my client who had a quickly approaching beauty pageant she was competing in. Not only did Chelsea nail her hair color, cut, and install amazing hand-tied extensions... she also recommended a top industry professional to do her makeup and pageant hair for the day of the event. She made booking effortless, and took the stress off my plate for finding another another person for the day of the pageant. My client left feeling gorgeous. She sent me pics of herself and a video of the salon saying how cute the whole setup was and how personable Chelsea is. Thank you Chelsea.

I had been doing research on getting a haircut and hair extensions ever since I moved to San Diego and Chelsea ...came up. I emailed her about my concerns since I have thick hair, it's dry and has split ends. So I really need someone who has experience with my type of hair. She was very nice and very professional on how to take care of my hair and offered me a package deal of a haircut and adeep conditioning treatment before our appointment. She was so courteous she even squeezed me into her busy schedule because I desperately needed a new haircut ASAP. I came to her studio and the session was very intimate, she talked me through each step and made me feel like I knew exactly what she was doing to my hair. Chelsea's professionalism and hygienic practices are BEYOND! I could not recommend her highly enough. If she can make my hair this good, she can definitely make YOUR hair this good ! ! read more

Chelsea is a hair goddess!! She has transformed my hair into what I have always pictured it to look like! I was someone who never got my hair done in a salon before (I thought I was good with box dye in high school.. yikes!). I was so nervous the first time I got my hair done but Chelsea made me feel so calm and confident! That was over a year ago and I've been going to her ever since! She is amazing at what she does and always recommends the best products to keep your hair healthy. Not only has she colored my hair, but she also did my tape-in extensions which I'm obsessed with! I had an issue with them (my fault!) after my first couple weeks of having them and Chelsea was able to get me in fast and give me a quick fix! She also always has the best snacks and drinks Talking to her while getting your hair done is like talking to an old friend! I 100 percent recommend Chelsea for all of your hair needs! Get ready to feel amazing! read more

Did an amazing color correction from golden blonde to icy blonde and fixed a dark patched in the back. I'm so in love with my hair!

I found Chelsea on Facebook. I was a little hesitant because of a hair color disaster I experienced a few years ago with someone else. I hadn't colored my hair since. Chelsea did a great job! She didn't damage my hair at all and she did a really pretty subtle lighter brown balayage and a long layered hair cut. I'd highly recommend her! I will be returning to her in a few months :) read more
