This is the first review I have ever left because my hair did not come close to how I wanted it. I…read morepurchased the Groupon for balayage, cut, and blow dry. Since I had box dye in my hair, he informed me it would be an extra $70 for a color correction. After getting price estimates from other salons, this seemed like a decent price for my budget. I did my research and looked over his website, Yelp reviews, etc. and the photos impressed me and led me to believe he would produce the balayage I wanted. I didn't mind the price for everything I was getting. I sent David photos of how I wanted my hair a few months before I scheduled the appointment. I have been saving up money and planning this treatment for five months which is perhaps why I'm so upset about the original results from my first appointment. When I walked in he briefly welcomed me and then immediately asked me what I wanted done. Since I've been planning this treatment for so long I had a Pinterest album of similar balayages (not to mention he already had the photo in our thread). He took one glance and got started which made me nervous but I trusted him as a professional. Throughout the treatment there was no communication regarding color, length cut, or anything like that. We sat in silence for 80% of my 3 hr. appointment. We made small talk and I asked him about after care, what he was putting in my hair, etc. He curled my hair and when I turned around and saw my hair for the first time I noticed it was WAY lighter than I expected, but I did like it. I left the salon happy. But I never curl my hair so when I saw it natural (wavy/straight), I could see how messy and amateur it looked. There were chunks reaching up to my roots and he basically dyed the bottom half of my hair a rainbow of blonde colors. NOT a balayage. I left a short review on the website and he text me shortly after with a long reply. I sent him photos of how my hair looked and the photo I originally sent him of what I wanted. He offered to fix it for free, so I went back in. Before my appointment he text me to confirm and said "Would be great if you could take down your review," but I'm glad I waited until after the second appointment to review him again. This time the communication was better, however now that a day has passed I see that my hair is still not where I want it to be since he bleached the whole bottom half and effectively made it difficult to achieve a balayage with just toner. I do understand that I did tell David I liked my hair in the salon because at that point I was fed up and wouldn't bother to have him fix it since he already comped this appointment and spent his time fixing it. Overall it looks much better now and is healthy after I cut 4 inches off (which I did to get rid of the dead bleached hair), but I am still going to get it fixed by another hair dresser. Not only that but I asked him for long layers in my hair cut but my hair is all one length. At the end of the day, if you go to David, just make sure you are clear about what you want because otherwise from what I can tell in other reviews he is a good hairdresser.

The right stylist is someone who's not only highly skilled, but also consistent, detail-oriented, and able to perform under pressure. That's exactly who Nicole Alex is. Nicole has been my go-to for haircuts and color for nearly 10 years, and I can honestly say she continues to impress me with her talent and professionalism. I'll admit I'm not the easiest client--my hair is extremely coarse, thick, and often damaged, and I'm not always the most punctual. Despite these challenges, Nicole always treats every appointment with care, patience, and precision. Whether I'm coming in after weeks of being out of town or squeezing in a last-minute session, she never cuts corners . Her work is always meticulous, and the results speak for themselves. I've worked with many stylists over the years, but none have come close to the level of quality and consistency Nicole provides. If you're new to San Diego, visiting, or a local who still hasn't found that one stylist who truly checks all the boxes--look no further. Nicole Alex is the real deal. Once you sit in her chair, you'll understand why I, and so many others, continue to choose her time and time again. She's simply exceptional.

Despite all the positive reviews, unfortunately I had a very bad experience going to this salon. I…read moremade a free consultation appointment with Kayla a week prior to the actual appointment regarding hair coloring. During the consultation, she told me that my blonde highlights got darker because of "mineral buildups" in my hair from hard water, and she recommended to do a "CPR treatment" following by applying a toner to bring back the blond color (which highlights got darker and more yellow over time). She said that this treatment plan would make my highlights lighter and blonder again. I made the actual appointment, when the proposed treatment was done. After 30 minutes of sitting under the heat with the treatment applied, she washed out the "CPR treatment" 3 times!!!, scrubbing my scalp and later she told me (when I had the skin reaction) that she used a PH 9 shampoo, which is apparently (I'm reading now about it) harsh, and is disruptive to the hair and scalp. Then, she applied the toner, then a leave-in conditioner, that needed to be washed out due to some skin reaction. When she was working on washing it out, she scrubbed my scalp so viguorusly, that I screamed from pain to stop her doing it so harshly. Later in the afternoon, I started to feel an inflammatory type of severe pain on the back of my scalp. It got worse since yesterday and I don't know what really happened to my scalp, skin, tissue, or nerve, but whatever injury happened, it is extremely painful. Regarding the result of the treatment, nothing that promised was achieved, my hair feels like it got a little darker and making my highlights blonder didn't happen. Kayla told me after drying my hair that she was surprised that her treatment plan didn't work on my hair. What is much worse than not achieving the promised result is the severe pain on the back of my scalp.
