I don't do this often but I must give a shoutout to Tito Flores at Moonshadow Salon in Berkeley. Tito knows how to sculpt all types of hair for all genders and ethnicities. It's an Aveda salon so their knowledgeability and products are splendid. Highly recommended. He gave me a highly functional style that I can live with every day and looks on point. Such a pleasure and so simple.

I made an appointment with Sherry on May 3rd for June 10th because I needed to have my hair dyed on that exact date. I planned everything accordingly, took the day off from work and suddenly they cancelled my appointment on June 3rd. It was impossible to find a new appointment within a week and I couldn't get my hair done. I had no choice but to go to my friend's wedding without dyeing my hair. I was upset but there was nothing to do. I understood the previous situation and wanted to give this salon another chance and on October 6th I made an appointment with Tito for October 13th and took the day off from work and planned everything accordingly. -again... This morning I woke up early for my appointment that was supposed to be at 11am and I saw that they sent me an email at 7:30am saying my appointment was canceled. Tito texted me saying "we can reschedule". Really, can we?! I don't know if I'm being so sensitive but I have a life, a job, and things to plan. Canceling an appointment made a month in advance on the last week or the same day is not professional behavior and breaks trust. The reason I am writing such a long comment is to warn my other female friends. As a woman I know how important our hair is to us and I want to share with you that if your hair is really important to you I would suggest you do not trust this salon's appointments and find another salon. They can literally cancel your appointment at the last minute and you may feel really bad.

I tried Moonshadow for an overdue haircut and left satisfied and happy. JayDee was my stylist and took the time to understand my requests. My hair had grown pretty long and I wanted 3-4 inches off with layers and volume. It was easy to make an appointment on their website and my session was on a Monday noon so it was not very busy and there was street parking right outside. It took them only an hour to wash, cut, dry and style my hair. I live in SF where it's impossible to find stylists less than $100 so I thought this was reasonably priced at $75. Highly recommend trying!

My go-to salon for haircuts-- I always feel welcomed by Moonshadow's group of stylists. Genevieve is so informational, kind, and experienced. I always look forward to my appointments in the open airy space and love to walk around the surrounding area of college ave after getting my hair done.

This is my confirmation

I went to get a haircut Friday afternoon for a special occasion and showed them exactly what I…read morewanted: a classic Ben Affleck Bruce Wayne-style haircut with regular-sized sideburns, just like the character. They asked me if I was graduating, and I said no, I was meeting my fiancée's mom the next day. Five minutes before the haircut was finished, the stylist took a big chunk off my right sideburn. She cut it too high, which ruined the whole haircut, especially since my face shape doesn't suit short sideburns. I told her I didn't like it. I didn't overreact or yell, I was just uncomfortable. The hairdresser said, "Too bad!" and tried to dismiss the issue. I told her again that she should have asked me about the length. She then took it personally and told her boss that I was making things up so I wouldn't pay, saying, "They do this so they don't pay." What do you mean by "they"? Not only did I feel dismissed and treated unprofessionally, but also disrespected. I was upset after the whole situation, but even then I was willing to pay and didn't want to leave without paying because I didn't want to prove her point. Plus, it's not that expensive. At the end, the stylist said she had 40 years of experience. Well, after this, it feels like you wasted 40 years and somehow skipped the basics of customer service. Not coming back, even after being offered a free haircut. I would rather pay three times what I paid today for a standard service where you're treated with basic courtesy.

Before Reena, I was never able to find a stylist that could so easily understand what I wanted and had the patience and skill to execute it fully. She is so flexible and creative with the methods she uses, and always keeps the health of my hair in mind. Before finding her, I had visited a different stylist for a consultation and this other stylist was planning to fully bleach my dark-blonde/faded red hair, and get it to all blonde quickly. It was such a difference to then go to Fox and Belle and have a consultation with Reena who came up with a plan to gradully get me to my blonde end-goal by first transforming my old red-dyed hair into an ombre sunset of lovely coral and peach tones to blend into my natural color (it turned out so much better than I could have imagined) and then once that had grown out and faded she was able to do a bleach-free balayage that gave me the blonde I wanted and will still look good as my roots grow out. And because of her methods, my hair feels so soft and healthy! It makes the whole process so stress-free because I know my hair is in the best hands with her. I have left each of my appointments feeling beautiful and so much more confident thanks to her. And on top of all that, Reena has given me so much great advice on what products and tools to use on my hair, how to prevent damage, and how I can style it myself. Everyone at this salon is so friendly and the environment is the most welcoming and relaxed I have experienced. I especially love how much natural light and fresh air there is in the salon. If you are thinking about booking a service here you should go for it and book it with Reena so she can work her magic on your hair!

Virginia, you refunded my payment (thank you) and I wasn't sure whether to write this. I loved the haircuts I got from you before. But you cannot experiment on people's hair like this. And after this I do not think you should be coloring people's hair at all. I asked you directly before we started if you had knowledge and experience with blonde highlights and you said multiple times yes, and that you definitely could make it happen. But it turned out you had no idea how to do blonde bleach, let alone balayage. Once you rinsed out the bleach and saw how bad it looked, you didn't stop what you were doing to share what had happened. Instead of showing me the results, you applied a super-hot curling wand to give me a big hairstyle so I wouldn't notice the highlights. The wand on the new bleach left it with intense heat damage. The hair is falling out as I write this and my whole head stinks of burnt hair. This did not need to happen - you could have simply told me the truth, that you have no idea what you're doing with blonde highlights, and I would have been able to find someone who does, and my hair would still be healthy right now. Please let me be the last person this happens to.

I have paid far more for lesser quality cuts. She is friendly, detailed, and efficient.

Leave a voicemail and she will get back to you in a timely manner.
