Plush Salon - Went from long hair to a Super Cute "Bob"! - Hair Salons Near Me - San Diego, California

I found Jenny H through a google search and am so happy I did! I love my cut and she went above and beyond to deliver the exact color I asked for, which I'm sure I communicated poorly, so I'm even more impressed she was able to decipher/mind-read what I wanted. I'd highly recommend her! read more

Diego Hernandez is THE BEST COLORIST EVER!!!!! As a native New Yorker, and a bi-coastal resident, over the years I have gone to many excellent salons and had the privilege of having many talented colorists work on my hair. Let me say, hands down, Diego is the very best there is - A true artist. He is a great listener and collaborator, and has a superb eye for shades and detail. Some stylists listen well, but just can't deliver - not so with Diego. His technical ability is unparalleled. He also happens to be one of the nicest guys ever. It's always a pleasure to spend the time sitting in his chair chatting. Highest recommendation! read more

Plush Salon - Diego rocks my world - Hair Salons Near Me - San Diego, California

This review is way over due! This is the best salon I have been to in a long time! Alyssa Sheibe is nothing short of a miracle worker. She has rescued and helped my fine thin hair recover from a hack job i got in 2021. She is an expert stylist with a compassionate heart and wisdom beyond her years. The salon is super clean, everyone is welcoming and kind. Grateful to have found this amazing place. If I could give Plush Hair Lounge and Alyssa 10 stars I would. Make an appointment and you wont be dissapointed. read more

Cory is awesome! He made my hair and the color exactly the way I wanted! I know for my hair or most Asian hair it's really hard to get the color I wanted (grey) so I had to come back again, but it was well worth it. Even the haircut was amazing, as I wanted my hair exactly how Cory has his, so it was easy to tell him what I wanted. Overall it took around 7 hours to finish my hair. This is my first time at this establishment, it is a nice little place on 5th ave. Cory was very nice and I love his personality. He made the 2 visits and 7 hours time seem like an hour! I'm sure the other salonists are awesome as well, but Cory definitely got me hooked! I will be coming back in the future for more touchups and what not. I appreciate the hard work you've put into my hair Cory! One more thing, Cory even recommended some products for me and even went out to meet up with me at the place he gets his own coloring supplies. Thank you for the great experience and tips on keeping my hair great! read more

Al the people working their are so nice and professional!! Not a gabby full of themselves place at all! Everyone walking out was very happy. Easy to get to and right on 5th ave... If you need a true Highlight seriously call WESLY You will be glad! read more

Frank did a great job to color and highlight my hair. I highly recommend him! I had a blond hair, and I asked his opinion about what color will be good on me and I gave him a chance to do whatever he wants to do. He spent about 3-4 hours only on my hair and when he finished, I was amazed! It was the color that I exactly wish to have. I also had a very weak and damaged hair, but after coloring my hair by Frank, it gets stronger, thicker, and softer. Their costumer service is great as well. I paid for parking only for 2 hours but because I wasn't done yet, he went and extended my permit which was very nice of him. I will definitely be coming back here again. read more

Frank has been doing my hair since 2010. Even after moving an hour and a half away I make the trip down. I usually only have a vague idea of what I want with my hair and then I just let him do his thing. I've never once been unhappy with the result and it's always such a nice couple of hours visiting with him! Diego, Aisha, and Cory did all the updos for my wedding and each one looked perfect..plus everyone was happy with the results. Highly recommend this salon! read more

Sorry Sum K... but the pictures are REAL! I usually don't write reviews, but I have received so many compliments, I wanted to make sure everyone knows about Jenni's talent with color! That's when I saw the review written by Sum K. Curious, I read her review and was shocked to see that she used my "Before/After" photo in her false accusation that the pictures were fake and of two different women. I guess I can understand... I assume that's why I got so many compliments by family and friends :) They couldn't believe the transformation either! I went from having ugly, long brown hair (with 12 months of regrowth) to beautiful, bright blonde hair in less than 3 hours. Jenni is amazing and she has given me a complete hair makeover more than once. I highly recommend her and Plush Salon. read more

Diego is my go-to! I usually come in with 2 hairstyles I can't decide on, and Diego does a great job of narrowing it down to 1 and making it look good. I have serious issues with my bangs (I never know how short or long to keep them) and Diego is very patient with me and snips a little extra when I ask him to. He even tells me to come in if I don't like the length of my bangs within a week of my haircut so he can fix them for free. That's love. Hehe He gave me highlights the first time I saw him and a subtle ombré the second time. Both jobs were amazing! He really understands what styles are flattering for the individual and you seriously can't put a price on an eye like his. I'm a loyal customer and will be going to Diego for any and all hair needs moving forward. =) read more

Plush Salon - Love this subtle ombré! Thanks Diego! - Hair Salons Near Me - San Diego, California

Rena at Plush is A. MAZE. ING! I can't say enough good things about her. I came in for my first crazy hair color ever and she took excellent care of me. Even after some hefty bleaching my hair feels so soft and healthy. I was there for about 7 hours total and it was a blast chatting and hanging out with her. As for the color...It's INCREDIBLE! It is the most "natural" looking unnatural color I've ever seen. The time and care it took to achieve this never ceases to amaze me. After a couple days when I wanted to tweak the color a bit (just a personal preference, there was nothing wrong with it) Rena fit me right in and and didn't even charge me extra for the visit. The color has faded beautifully and I couldn't be happier. I work in video games and at a recent convention I got countless compliments on my hair from other ladies who made the mistake of trying to color their hair at home. The difference in quality was obvious. Seriously - if you want your hair colored do yourself a favor and book with Rena. She's the best. read more

I recently had my first experience having my hair done with Jenny at Plush. I have a lot of hair, and it is long with many different textures... predominately curly, frizzy underneath the base of the back of my head, and volume naturally all over. Think of Cher in "Turn Back Time," but I don't have to try to make it look that way! Jenny not only took the time to wash, blow dry, flat iron my hair, so that she could see the actual length before doing the cut... she clearly knew what she was doing with hair like mine. The atmosphere and other stylists that work there, are welcoming and they all made my experience a great one. I have gone back since my first appointment, and will continue to work with Jenny moving forward. read more

Really cute salon in a great neighborhood, Also I found parking right away near by Plush . Their prices are very reasonable and affordable. Thank you Wesley for this amazing hair cut! Can't wait to get my hair dyed . read more

Hi everyone, I came to this salon yesterday just for hair styling. I liked that they were accommodating in my last minute appointment, however the stylist just ignore what I asked for and went ahead to do the most mediocre blowout hairstyle. I complaint with him right away why would he not able to do the beach waves hairstyle I asked for and he couldn't stop making excuses and lying on how it was not possible because of my hair type, which is not true because I have naturally manageable, with volume and wavy hair plus other stylists have done that hairstyle for me before. It was a very special day for me so I decided not to continue the argument since it was obviously that he did not wanted to the job at all. On my way out I saw other hairstylist doing the hairstyle I wanted, I should have asked her to fix it for me but too late, I ended out walking out unhappy, with my better than nothing blowout hairstyle. I want to share with other woman my experience, hoping they don't have to go through the same disappointment. read more

I don't have enough words to express what an amazing hairdresser Diego is! He's been taking care of my hair for past 3 years. He changes my look every time and always has great ideas/suggestions. Diego also cares about health of my hair which I think is rare quality. Plush salon is a very friendly place that's always nice to visit. Highly recommend! read more

I am pretty picky about my hair, but Juan at Plush Salon did an amazing job giving me the perfect blonde color! It matched the photo that I showed him exactly and arguably was even better. I could not recommend this salon and Juan Salas more :) read more

Walked in and Wesley made us feel at home and did a phenomenal job on a cut and color!! Will return when I am in San Diego!

Aisha has been doing my hair for 2.5 years and has never disappointed. She is a pro with coloring and balayage and is always spot on with what I want! She's got the brains/science behind Hair as well as the art/magic touch and it shows! 10/10 She's also fun to talk to so that helps too! read more

Today I saw colorist Frank for a color correction as a brand new customer. I was very impressed that he really took the time to try and get EXACTLY what I wanted and I can tell he really cares about his business and customer's satisfaction- something I really appreciated after a couple bad experiences elsewhere. Not only did I gain a new expert colorist, but I feel like I gained a new friend. I will be back when it is time for a touch up for sure! Oh and the place is so charming and cute architecturally! Frank, if you are reading this- thanks again for helping a girl out!!! read more

Super stylish and they really know what they are doing. My hair isn't easy to color without screwing it up, but I trust them and I have never been disappointed read more

Plush Salon - Posh, Plush and super sweet people! - Hair Salons Near Me - San Diego, California

I have a lot of friends, men and women, who have been using Cory and they always look wonderful. I finally went down to get my own hair cut, and Cory is just great. I usually get a cheap $10 haircut and never had a second thought. With Cory, I went back to my office and the instantly noticed how much better my hair looked. Over the weekend, several comments on my hair. If you haven't visited Cory before, you are in for a treat when you do. He also does color, something I declined for my cut. read more

CORY is the best. I've been going to him for a couple of years now. He is bomb. He's nice, honest, and most important, does killer highlights!!!!!!! He is my for LIFE hair dresser!!!!!!!!!! Please don't leave San Diego!!!!! read more

Cory is fantastic! He is experienced and professional. I always come in not 100% sure what I want my hair to look like and he is great with suggestions and ideas. He also has some great products for hair is dirty or limp or dry. I always leave feeling great and my hair always looks amazing! Highly recommend Cory and Plush salon. read more

I had my gf choose three other stylists before Cory AND I just went to whoever on whatever day I felt like it at whatever crap barber was offering a deal. To be honest at this point I didn't care. I felt like my length of hair was just hard to deal with and that my gf had no clue or understanding about what I want or needed. Then she says I found someone I think might understand your hair. I am clueless myself so at this point I didn't think anyone or thing could help. I could barely give Cory direction. I'm not a super talkative person anyway... but also just haven't had luck with the last 3... But I left with a haircut that I haven't complained about. I haven't looked in the mirror and thought I looked like a little boy with a long bowl cut. If you are a guy and have longer hair Cory is the man! read more

Cory always make me transform from an ugly duckling to a fabulous swan! I got my new winter haircut and I feel so alive again!!! Thankyou!! read more

I was lucky enough to have Frank, the owner take me from dark to platinum. I felt at ease in his hands which possess over 30 years of experience. He listened to exactly what I wanted yet knew how to make the rather wild look come out seamless and beautiful. Lastly- if you can't get an appointment online or don't see the ideal time slot available.... just give them a call. Frank is extremely dedicated and will always make the time for clients who are cooperative! I had Frank take me from dark brown to platinum blonde in 6.5 hours.... NEVER did he seem tired or impatient. See result below :). Thank you Frank! read more

I can't even begin to tell you how amazing my experience here was. My hair was very VERY damaged and...orange. Frank did his magic and WOW is all I can say. This was my first time in, as I was recommended this salon by a friend, but it will definitely not be my last. THANK YOU FRANK!!! read more

My friend KTP referred me to this salon as I was looking for a change from my old salon. KTP recommended Aisha and I'm so glad she did!!! I decided to take of more than my usual trim and Aisha was very helpful and made great suggestions. The cut came out cute and I have received so many compliments. The salon itself is very cute and clean. Even better is that it is walking distance to my house! Plush you've got yourself a new client! read more

I have been going to Plush Salon for the past year. I don't always have the time or money to get my hair done on a regular basis, so it's important to have a color that will grow out in a natural way. I first went to see Frank who knows color and how hair will grow out with it. He is fabulous, friendly and runs an amazing salon. After giving me partial highlights he had gone the extra mile without me even asking to make sure I had beach hair for a party I was going to following my appointment. Embarrassing moment--When I switch purses I have a bad habit of leaving things in the old one. After my appointment I was surprised to not see my wallet in my bag. Frank told me to go have fun and come back the next day to pay. I was so appreciative! I began seeing Aisha (pronounced eye-sha ;) ) as it worked with my schedule the next time. Reminding me of one of my sisters, she is personable, smart and driven and although a hair appointment isn't about having the sweetest person in the world, let's be honest--this is someone you'll be sharing your life stories for a few hours with! I requested my hair blonder around the face and she executed this with no strange lines and a beautiful blonde color. I have gotten so many compliments from friends and family just in the last week. People just keep thinking I look tanner. ;) The location of this salon is on 5th Avenue in Banker's Hill on the north end of down town. What looks like it was once a house, this clean, open space salon neighbors a cute Spa and entices you to explore the neighborhood around it. You are normally able to find free parking either on the street or around the block, but if you have to walk it is a safe neighborhood not too far from Balboa Park. There is also a great dry cleaners on the corner if you like getting a few things done at once. read more

Where to begin?! I have been a client of Cory's for 3 years, though it feels like I have known him for 20. He listens to exactly what you want and will give you suggestions when you're stumped. I found him on a whim, just passing by the old salon he worked in, after my long time stylist moved away. My mom quickly followed suit and then my husband. He is reasonably priced, swift (while still maintaining excellence!) & totally organized. Cory branched out on his own this year and is at a new salon, Plush. Plush salon is really cute, the space seems so much bigger than it actually is. Great location, easy parking. Go see Cory! You will be thrilled you did. read more

Rena is the woman when it comes to hair. She always listens to what I want and makes suggestions to make it even better! I followed Rena from her previous salon because she knows the products to use and how they work with different kinds of hair. Plush is so cute and quiet; it's perfect for that one-on-one service that Rena is known for. I will recommend Rena to all of my friends! read more

Cory is my lifesaver. I walked out of a different salon the night before looking like a hot mess. I had non-intentional orange hair and I was on the verge of tears because I have an engagement party and photos coming up. I was able to get in with Cory the next day right after work. He has the best (for lack of a better term) bedside manner! - What is that called for hairstylists??... Either way, his personality rocks. He is very understanding of what I went through and was patient with fixing everything (it ended up being quite a process). I walked out feeling like a million bucks. I recently went back to him again with my mother for a cut and color (both of us), and he knocked it out of the park again. He's stuck with me now. The salon is a beautiful old craftsman home and they are great at making you feel comfortable. HIGHLY recommended. read more

I absolutely love my new salon and stylist, Cory Wolsey! He does fantastic work and is very versatile. He only uses the best products as well. I recommend you see Cory Wolsey for your next hair appointment, you will never go anywhere else again. I just posted a photo of his latest work! read more

This place is super cute and I will definitely be coming here again. The environment is very relaxing and the prices are in a great range! I had Rena as my hair dresser and she did beyond an amazing job! I'm the one to dye my hair with no experience and tend to have it look on the crappy side after it fades away. Rena explained everything to me very thoroughly what she was doing with my hair and gave me more than I was expecting! Rena also colored my nieces hair and it turned out very beautiful! After I saw how terrific Rena's work was, I had to get my hair done by her (: I highly recommend Plush Salon and will come here soon when I have a new fun color in mind! read more

Just got my hair cut and colored yesterday by Frank and feeling great about all the compliments! I have been following Frank for about 16 years now and wouldn't consider going anywhere else. The addition of Jenni to the salon made an already great experience AWESOME! I was so disappointed that Jenni was out sick yesterday. I love that I can go in and talk quickly about my hair and then leave it up to Frank and Jenni. Then I just sit back and enjoy getting caught up with them. I have referred several friends over the years and never hesitate to refer anyone to Plush Salon. Everyone is friendly and helpful and I always get a great cut and color for great value. read more

This place is amazing, the service is unparalleled. It is located in a quaint spot in Banker's Hill, the salon is converted from a chapel. Aisha was amazing, I love my hair cut. Not only do I love the job she did, but she did such an awesome job chatting me up and actually CARING about what I had to say. Definitely recommend this place, very friendly staff. read more

Rena is amazing I've been putting off getting my hair cut for far too long! My experience in the past is that stylists always want to cut a lot off- which is usually the opposite I want! I'm in the process of growing out an inverted bob and an undercut so obviously not an easy task. I went to Rena and she made my hair beautiful again without taking off the length that I've worked so hard to get back! My hair is light and fluffy and feels amazing again. 10/10 I'll be coming back for RENA SUGARMAN! She's bomb. And I have some plans to slowly get my hair to a gray/pastel that I know she is the only woman for the job! Much love!! read more

JUST got my hair colored here, and I'm loving the direction Frank and Jennie took. All I had to do was tell them what I didn't like about my last dye job, and I'm now blonder than ever, 100% happy with the shade I walked out with. Friendly and attentive service, extremely efficient operations, and very fair prices for the quality of work. Definitely get your coloring done here! read more

I started going to Frank at Plush Salon several years ago. My office mate's hair always looked great and she went to him. I trust Frank 100%.
