I have been coming to Mitri for over 15 years. I trust Mark and Tony to do anything with my hair. When I come in, I always walk away with a great cut that grows out nicely so I only have to come in every 3-4 months. They are always very accommodating and I am usually able to make an appointment the same day. The shop is simple, modern and clean. It's in a great location, in the same plaza as Yuki Sushi and Rita's Italian Ice, three of my favorite spots all in one place! Come check out Mitri's, you will become part of the family! read more

Mark and Tony will make you feel beautiful, which is honestly the magic of a good haircut. They're also really nice and are good listeners and will give you what you want, all the while doing what's best for your hair type. I've been going here for years and have gotten everything from a pixie cut to long, face-framing layers. read more

My daughter came here to get a haircut, Mark was excellent! Very chill vibe and he was super respectful/kind. He immediately knew what to do with her hair, and he was very precise and detailed. Highly recommend! read more

The best service ever:) every time I go there alway have a very good energy I normally get to do my hair color and cut so always happy after work. read more

I've gone to Mitri for a few years now for haircuts and they always do a wonderful job but this was my first time going in for a dye. My experience as a whole was great! I was able to get an appointment right away and my stylist was ready to go when I came (no extra wait upon arrival). I had my inspiration picture ready and Mark did a wonderful job in making it come to life. We both underestimated how much hair I had (and how thick it was) which led to us scheduling a second appointment to do more lights but both times, Mark was professional, timely and I left with beautifully styled hair. If I could, I would give Mark a 6th star for his patience as he took his time to untangle my mane I will definitively be coming back and will recommend their services to my friends P.S. the other stylist Tony is really nice as well.

I gave this place another chance, and I really like the haircut this time. Thanks. My hair looked good and balanced after this.

Mark and Tony are fricken' awesome!! Guys, if you need a good fade, comb over, etc. come here!! Ladies, you can come here as well. I've seen both Mark and Tony w/ female customers too. They are well-rounded in their craft! They've also got other pretty ladies who cut hair too. It's always crowded, which is a good sign. I believe they take walk-ins (don't quote me on this), but I'd call for an appt if you are in a rush or have other things to do. However, if you have time, both these guys are funny and friendly as hell, they'll entertain you for sure. Everyone here is actually friendly and always smiling. If I could get 100 stars, I would. Thanks Mitri team! Edit: NVM, per Yelp, by appointment only. read more

Mark was excellent ! He did a good hair cut and very caring and considerate to my daughter. He knew what she wanted. We called him last minute and requested an appointment and he did accommodate us ! read more

Went to this place after reading yelp reviews and must say I chose the right place. Was really hesitant to due to the Covid-19 fear, but the set up is done outside and cleaned and Sanitised thoroughly. I got my haircut from Tony and he is very good. Makes you feel comfortable. Will visit again. read more

Mitri Hair Studio - layered simple haircut!! Ignore my dirty car lol - Hair Salons Near Me - Santa Clara, California

We didn't have time to do balayage so I opted for amazing highlights instead with Cookie. She has 30 years experience owning her salon before joining Mitri so she has a lot of expertise and is very detailed about exactly what you want. This took a couple of hours still, but it's worth it! She really knows Asian hair and fixed my previous "orange" hair job lol (from someone who didn't know how to bleach out my very dark hair)! Thanks for beautifying me Cookie! read more

Very old style of hair blowout: low volume, top of the hair so flat, curls just at the of the hair. The stylist couldn't see the type of the hair from beginning( thin, soft strands) and straightened my hair, applied oil(!!!)and made it much harder to make it curly next, and he had apply much more product on my hair to keep the curls on my hair! read more

I still get compliments on my hair cut one year later! I highly recommend this place!

Cookie is a great stylist, who creates wonders with human hair! She has an artistic eye and I trust her vision. I like to watch her creating beautiful styles for women of different ages. I love what she does with my hair. Every time I leave her salon very happy with the result of her work. read more

I love Tony and Mark. Everytime they cut my hair it always comes out amazing. I took my little kids here for the first time and they were so gentle and patient. My littlest one has never had a haircut outside the home due to her fear of having strangers cut her hair. When Tony saw she was afraid he gave her a notebook and pencil to draw, she drew pictures while standing and he talked to her the entire time, allowing her to stand and move while cutting her hair. He was so accommodating to her needs and she came out looking great! As a parent I truly appreciate the accommodation for very young children.and their understanding. read more

Tony has been cutting my hair for a couple of years. I have very fine, thin hair. He does an excellent job. He's very friendly so the experience is enjoyable. I highly recommend him read more

I searched for a long time to find a good hair salon, and finally I've found the perfect place! I was looking for a stylist who I could trust to cut 10 inches off and give my hair a whole new makeover. Marc was my stylist and he did AMAZING. I love his service, super friendly, yet professional. He really took time to make sure all my thoughts were heard and gave me a few suggestions. I walked out with a fabulous new haircut plus some highlights! I was very happy with my hair color which turned out better than I imagined. Overall I had such a great experience and would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a great new cut! read more

I went there for a haircut! Mark was great. He did a great job with my damaged hair. He also styled it for me. And I was more than happy with the outcome. Highly recommend this place!! read more

Tony is the best! I had Japanese straightening with Tony. I have a natural curly hair and my hair got dry and frizzy from all the iron heat and blower from the past. He made sure that my hair is well treated. I also got deep smoothening. My hair looks straight and silky healthy! Coming back for the second time is all worth waiting for--4 hrs treatment. read more

Mark, Tony and Cookie are great, friendly, welcoming, caring, talented, listen to clients wants, professional, warm happy spirited people and go out of their way to accommodate their clients and ensuring a great experience. I always feel I'm in good hands, out of the three I've been to mark the most. I've been coming here for years and have always been satisfied by their work. 10/10 recommend them. Overall, they truly deserve all the great remarks. Thank you so much! I always get so many compliments on my hair after coming to this salon. :) read more

Price is reasonable and my hair stylist Mark is quite nice and fast. The reason I only I gave it 3 stars was due my last haircut experience. Mark wanted to trim my hair after he has removed the cover/wrap, but he didn't help me to put the wrap back and just started trimming my hair and let them fall on my cloth. This is not very professional....I took forever to remove all the tiny hairs from my cloth afterward. read more

Jessie and Lana are the BEST!!! Jessie did the hair and makeup for my mom's wedding and for mine. I have never looked more beautiful in my entire life than I did on my wedding day! She is so talented and sweet. She makes everything so easy. Lana did some of the best hairstyles I have ever seen on my family. Both updo and down, she blew up away. Couldn't be happier!! read more

Let me first start by saying, I usually don't write reviews, but this place was so great I felt like I just had to get the word out. I came in to get my hair dyed and a trim. Lan was my stylist and she was UH-MAZING. She first felt my hair and suggested how I should take care of it (I definitely appreciated this). She was obviously very knowledgeable (she could see breaks in my hair and knew I tied my hair up a lot, I was very impressed). Lan was very quick and very precised. It took her about 2 hours to ombre my hair. The 2 hours were very enjoyable, and I felt very relaxed the entire time. All I said before she started was, "I just want my hair to be more blonde" and she knew exactly what to do and achieved a color that I absolutely loved. After, she trimmed my hair. I've been to places where I would say "take 2 inches off", but they would end up cutting a lot more off... here, 2 inches means 2 inches and I liked that they stuck to what I wanted. Once all the coloring and cutting was done. She took the time to style my hair. I would say Lan is a perfectionist, and I love that about her. She took her time to make sure every curl was perfect. I left feeling like a ROCKSTAR. I came in with dry damaged hair with a hair color I liked, but did not love. I left with an amazing hair color and my hair really did feel healthier. I'm definitely coming back here, and I definitely trust Lan with my hair (and it takes a lot for me to trust a hairstylist). 5 stars for being so awesome! read more

After my daughter turned 4 my husband and I decided it was time for a real hair cut. Before I'd take her to a best friend's mom to trim her bangs. I made an appointment with Sara. She's great with kids being a mother herself. My daughter was very comfortable and we got to keep her baby hair that was trimmed. Since then my daughter and I will see Sara on the same day for our trims and cuts :) Tony and Mark are really nice guys. Every time I go Mark always asks if I wanted something to drink or if I want to use their wifi. Tony is always friendly and talks to us. A great bunch of people to be around. When Sara's on vacation Tony and Mark take care of her clients. I've recommended Mitri to friends and family as well. They all gave positive feedback :) read more

This review is way overdue, considering I have been going to Mark for over 10 years now. I found Mark back in 2002 when I first moved to CA in a studio in the old Sunnyvale downtown area across from Macy's. He has always been very consistent and thorough about giving me great cuts at a reasonable price. I feel that Mark's cuts are the same quality as name brand ones like Aveda, and I can go more often because his prices are so reasonable. i have thick asian hair that grows out a cut in a month flat, so being able to go regularly to Mark has been awesome. As a happy coincidence, my now husband (then boyfriend) regularly goes to Tony. We didn't know we went to the same hair salon until after we started dating. Fast forward a few years, and I just brought my daughter in to Mark for her first haircut. So, it's officially a family affair :) I definitely recommend going to Mitri Hair studio for your entire family's needs! read more

Mark is a hair god. In the months leading up to my wedding I only trusted him to cut and color my hair. The prices for a cut at Mitri are very reasonable ($45-ish), but me, being cheap as I am, opted to go to a less expensive salon after the wedding. After a really hideous haircut (where I learned the cutter took too much off one side and then had to even it out and it still wasn't quite right afterwards) I decided that I'd splurge and spend the extra $10 (I know - $10 that's all it was at most!) and go to Mitri in the future. Plus, he styles it really well. Most salons I can't wait to wash it and style it myself because they've done a piss poor job. My haircuts here are always flawless. Mark isn't the overly effusive haircutting type that will get to know your life story, but he gives a damn good cut. read more

I'm a little late with this, but I had my hair cut by Tommy a few weeks ago. I was a little skeptical at first, because there seemed to be a misunderstanding about me even having an appointment, but as soon as he got working on me, I could tell he was pure awesome. My main concern was making sure the length doesn't get taken off. He did an awesome job though, with great precision and I'm definitely going back there. This was great value for the money. read more

I came across this salon while dining out at Yuki Sushi, right next to Mitri's. I decided to try this hair salon and let me tell you that Tony is fantastic. I hadn't gotten a haircut in 6 mo. It was fried from all the hair straightening I'd done. He took great care in listening to what I wanted, helped to texture and layer my long hair and kept my bangs so that they could grow out. My hair looked fabulous, just fell naturally. The prices are great, $45, for a women's haircut and plus they're open until 9 p.m. I'll definitely be coming back! UPDATE 10/13/07 ====================================================== I had my haircut in July and just this past Sat. and both times, I've just felt plain let down by the quality of the haircut and the service. My haircut in July was just a trim and to get my bangs cut. I usually show my stylist a picture of what I want b/c I've had those experiences where if you don't show your stylist what you want, then you'll end up with f%!d up haircut. I think he just glazes over the picture, doesn't take the time to listen to what I want. I just feel that there's no personal attention. There should be! After all, this is MY hair! I have to live with the results! So after my haircut in July, it just grew out to be this out-of- control mess. My bangs were in such bad shape. He could have cut in such a way where when it grew out, it wouldn't look so fobby. Now this past Sat., I got my haircut again. EgoMechanix and Rage were all booked up until next month and I just couldn't wait so I went back to Mitri and well, let's just say I showed my stylist what I wanted and he didn't deliver. I wanted to cut my long hair up to my shoulders with layers and have it thinned out since I have incredibly thick hair. I didn't want my bangs cut and he proceeded to do so. He didn't style it too much and so my haircut resembled that of my friend's Asian mom back in the 80s (think poofy bangs). The cost was $50 instead of $45???? Huh? I was just so disappointed and annoyed with the service and just wanted to get out of there as fast as possible! Sorry Mitri but I won't be coming back anymore. read more

Worst haircut I ever got. Tony should not operate. (I doubt he has a license) I asked to keep the length, it took me a long time to grow. I specifically said that and just to get the ends. While Tony was working on it, I couldn't see what he was doing. The result was shocking. He cut off 3 inch of my hair. Whatever is left has so many random layers, it looks extremely thin. The right side is longer than the left, even after telling him he did not fix it all the way. It literally feels like someone did something to your body without your consent. And now I have to live with it for at least a year until it grows back. After I said I don't like it, Tony gave me $10 off and said it would grow back. I feel deeply hurt and regret ever going there. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE! read more

So after not getting the color and look that I wanted with my previous dye job, I was referred to Lan by a couple friends who highly recommended her. Lan did an ombré and Balayage on me and helped me get the color I wanted. I freaking love my hair now! I would highly recommend Lan to anyone looking for a change in their hair style. She is great at what she does and she takes her time. In fact, mine took 3 hours to complete but it was all so worth it! Thanks so much Lan! Oh and I was pretty entertained while sitting on that chair. The other male hairstylist, Tony I think?, was hilarious. I also noticed all the hairstylists really taking their time with their clients and conversing with them as well. Seems like they have many regulars. Great salon! Definitely will be back! read more

I've followed Mark Nguyen through three salons and now he's opened his own with Tony. Mark belongs in the Castro, but lucky for us he's planted himself in south bay. He's got metro skills at suburban prices (under $40 for a long-haired girl cut, and you can get a coupon on his website). He especially knows Asian hair. I've recommended him to my cousin, my aunt, my mom, coworkers and friends - everyone loves him and goes back for more! Update winter'08: I have to say, these guys are awesome at hair cuts and highlights, but they don't know the first thing about punky hair color. I still love them to death for cuts, but if I ever need a pro bleach-and-dye again I'll try somewehre else. read more

I found Cookie on Yelp and was able to connect with her immediately and request an appointment. She was able to fit me in the following week.

I found this place on a whim over a year ago because I wanted a shampoo and blow dry. I dropped off my son at daycare and called around to see if anyone can take me immediately. Lucky me, Mitri was able to take me in immediately. I was greeted by Mark and we proceeded to wash my hair. Mark told me that Tony would be blow drying my hair. I sat at Tony's chair and he came in and started to ask me which side I parted my hair. As soon as I told him, he worked his magic. In less than 30' I walked out of there looking fab. I can't emphasize how great of job he's done. My SO couldn't stop complimenting my hair. After a great experience, I came back to him for haircut and now he is my goto guy for a haircut. He does a fabulous job. read more

I got a hair cut by Tony today. Chopped off 2 inches. Paid 50$ without tip. The salon itself is small but clean which I like very much and there is plenty of parking over there. (the area is kinda dead). I like my hair cut overall it's decent since I didn't want to drive to SF to my usual place for a hair cut (will go when I am due for my japanese hair straightening). The layers are not too small and I am happy that he didn't thin out my hair which would make me look like a big mushroom. Big layers and cute bangs (that doesn't scream I am asian). I think I will definitely go back if I am in need of a decent hair cut...! read more

I asked Mark twice if he knows how to cut curly hair. He pretended it's easy and wouldn't be a problem. Unfortunately, I believed him. A few minutes later I see that he's ruining my hair. Mark is not recommended for curly hair. Plus he doesn't know how to trim a beard. Also, he charges over the average. read more
