I absolutely love what Nikko does with my hair! I have naturally dark, thick Asian hair, which…read moreisn't always easy to lighten, and he consistently gives me the blonde highlights I love while keeping my hair incredibly healthy, soft, and shiny. I see him about every 3 months for my color, highlights, and long layers, and one of my favorite things about his work is how well everything grows out. Even when my roots start coming in, the color blends so naturally that my hair still looks fabulous and never feels like I'm overdue for an appointment. It's that timeless hair color and effortless, natural looking hair that I really love. I get so many compliments, and considering how much we lighten my dark hair, I'm always amazed that it never feels dry or brittle. Nikko is very gentle with the processing and really understands Asian hair and how to achieve lighter tones without sacrificing the health of your hair. He works with you throughout the process to get the results you want and also gives wonderful advice on keeping your hair healthy between appointments, like not blow drying with high heat every day, lowering the temperature on your flat iron, and always using a leave in conditioner with heat protectant. Nikko is truly talented at what he does, and I honestly wouldn't trust anyone else with my hair. If you have Asian hair and want blonde highlights, long layers haircut, and natural looking color that grows out seamlessly, he's the best!!

The Best Hair Stylist in the Bay…read more It's more than just a haircut - it's the whole experience. Jae is an extraordinarily skilled barber/stylist. Her ability to read the contours of your head and bring a vision to life is unparalleled. Her other qualities, though, shine even brighter. With Jae you get someone with an extreme attention to detail who is always trying their best to give you the best cut - each and every time. Her consistency is a step above. Engaging with her while in her chair adds a whole other flavor to the experience. Whether it's chopping it and joking, talking about politics, or just sitting and enjoying the silence - Jae really knows how to make her customer's feel at ease. The thing that I think Jae does that I've never really seen anyone else do is to work with her clients in figuring out the best cut. If you need a new stylist, or a new style altogether, she is there to help you out. This is the best hair stylist in the bay area hands down.

Code Salon reached out, genuinely listened to my concerns, and went above and beyond to make things right, including issuing me a refund. What stood out most to me was how sincere, professional, and thoughtful they were throughout the entire process. There was no defensiveness or dismissiveness whatsoever just a real effort to understand my experience. It's very clear that they care deeply about their work, their reputation, and, most importantly, their customers. Mistakes or disappointing experiences can happen anywhere, but the way a business responds says so much about its character. Code Salon handled everything with a level of integrity and care that I truly appreciated. I'm really grateful for how they followed up and for the way they turned a negative experience into one that left me with a great deal of respect for them. Their professionalism and commitment to making things right absolutely deserve to be acknowledged. I can't recommend them enough. They have the deep expertise, they have the talent, but most importantly, they have the integrity and that's what makes them exceptional. Shoutout the owner and my highly professional expert stylist. I'm truly amazed. Ty

Go for a haircut - - and get an insult…read more I have used this barber, or stylist -- Jimmy -- for a few years. He has told me that the success of his practice is based on not just his hair-cutting but the psychological therapy that he doles out alongside it. It's true that he often asked what's happening in the neighborhood, and I asked him the same. But the last time he just, incredibly, insulted me. How he expects to get away with this sort of behavior I have no idea. I'm 85 and don't have a lot of hair to cut, truth be told. But I still tip every 4 weeks. This fellow also speeds things along at a quick march while you are there. (This may be because he is there only three days a week.) A service provider telling an elderly patron to take off his glasses and "hasten" to the shampoo bowl is disrespectful. He seems to see himself as the commander and you as the subordinate. I have patronized many businesses in my life, here and abroad. I have never been treated with such misplaced arrogance. If you are looking for a simple haircut, look elsewhere. If you want to be insulted and "analyzed" by someone with no credentials to do that, this is the place for you. As for me, I have found a nearby stylist who gives me a better haircut, and no insults.
