Getting your haircut by David is like playing a game of Russian Roulette. To be honest, he has done a decent job in the past, but when he rushes, consider yourself cooked. If you have longer hair, he cannot blend the sides for his life. Currently, my hair looks like the yin and yang symbol due to the lack of gradient contrast from this previous haircut. It looks as if Moses parted the Red Sea on the side of my head. I'm not saying this is not a good barbershop. I'm saying that you need to tell David to lock in otherwise he will make it impossible for you to find/keep a girlfriend. read more

Quick haircut service. One can usually get in and out in ~ 30 minutes, without much of a wait in the lobby. As one of the other posters commented, David should probably trim the sides of one's hair more thoroughly as those areas tend to grow out quicker. David does not have or does run air conditioning, even on hot days. Still, he gets people in and out quickly, which is more than can be said for most. read more

Clean and efficient, was easily accommodated as a walk-in. Rachel cut my hair perfectly and even took care to do a touch up when she noticed a part that she hadn't cut quite right as she was taking off the drape. $35 + $5 tip. I didn't ask for anything too fancy but I'm sure they can handle whatever you throw at them! read more

The price is great. Unfortunately this place is a hit or miss. I've went a good handful of times and it's usually decent. One day I received one of the greatest haircuts ever. Excited I went back a month later. But when I went back this time he was super rushed. Result was choppy and weird. I was shocked he was done and asked him for a fix, he quickly shaved off a massive chunk and ushered me out. One of the worst I've ever received. Due to inconsistency not going back, not risking another mess up read more

I've been coming here for a while and it wasn't always this bad. However, over the few months they have become extremely sloppy and rush through haircuts. When I showed David the reference photo, he looked at it for one second but payed no mind. I even specified what I wanted and he just cut me off and said he can do it. He did not do it. The result was rushed and very sloppy. I will not be coming here again. read more

ZERO star Unprofessional and lousy service - my kid showed up at the appointed time, but David switched another person to do the haircut so he could work on a pricier perm. BAD#1 Should treat a kid with the same honesty and honor your appointment. Their motto is listening to a customer's request, but they cut my kid's hair with little regard to the instructions. BAD#2 No matter your skill if a person asks for a wavy shag and you deliver a buzz cut. read more

So, as some of you Yelp friends know I had went through an emotionally hard time. My hormones haven't been back to normal, so I lost a lot of hair. I went to go get a haircut from the girl that's trying to turn my hair platinum. Unfortunately, she didn't cut enough. My ends of my hair was feeling rather crispy. I needed a last minute cut, and I was super desperate. I've driven by R & David Salon many times. David was able to accommodate me last minute which was great. I showed him 2 different pictures of the bob haircuts I liked. I needed at least 1-2 inches cut. I generally don't like telling other hairstylists that I'm a hairstylist myself, because I don't want them to feel like I am judging them. The ones that know I'm a hairstylist knows, because we've worked together. I was very surprised at how great this haircut turned out. It looks really good, and the women , Rachel who shampooed me, shampooed me twice. I didn't have to ask her for a second shampoo, which was great. Rachel also got me water to drink. She kept asking me to do I'm ok, if She was hurting me. She wasn't, and very gentle. I almost fell asleep. Generally, I have to ask other hairstylists for 2 shampoos, because I'm super oily. David did a lot of point cutting, and texturizing. I also got a blowout. It's fanatic I don't have to wash, and style my hair tomorrow. He also refined the haircut when it was dry. Perfect! Imagine my surprise at how affordable the shampoo, haircut, and blow dry was. It was only $35. I gave him $70 total tip included. I'm use to paying $65 and up for a cut. People please tip well. Someone with his skills SHOULD BE charging a minimum of $65 for a shampoo, haircut, and blowout. He's only charging $35. David is fantastic. David, I hope you raise your prices soon, because it's well deserved with those skills. Just one hairstylist to another. read more

I had a hair perm there last Sunday. I'm glad they stay open on a Sunday while most salons are closed and I needed a hair cut. I saw their hair perm photo on yelp and decided to get a perm after reading the reviews. I was happy with the hair cut and perm. And what makes me decide to come back to leave a 5 star review after 3 days is the nice smell from the hair perm after I washed my hair. It's definitely unlike the annoying smell I used to get after a hair perm. They were true about using quality hair perm product, and I'll go back if I need a hair perm again in the future.

I've been going here since 2019. It's a hit or miss with communication & what i want with hair color or service. Although the prices are very reasonable, it's time for me to move on to someone that will listen & understand what i'd like to have done with my hair. I don't know why i need to make an appointment, if i'm not seen at the scheduled time. (30 minutes later than scheduled) When i made the appointment with David, i requested color, highlights, & hair cut. i only got root touch up & wasn't happy with the "dark" color. i was really needing a haircut. i decided that if i need to continually tell you what i want during my appointment, it's not worth going to this establishment, no matter how inexpensive you are compared to higher priced hairdressers. thanks for the past services, i've found a new hair colorist that will give me individual attention, listen to what i'd like to do with my hair & give professional guidance. read more

Tough review to write because I really liked David. He is kind and caring and I would totally recommend him for a haircut but color was a complete miss. I went in for highlights and ended up having my entire head bleached, toned and over processed. I understand if there was a miss communication but there are patches of different colors which doesn't allow me to put my hair up :( And color has a yellow tint. I had to share about the color in case there was someone else who saw the great reviews and was thinking of highlights. Again - totally loved the haircut. read more

Make sure you communicate what you want upfront, as they don't do too much confirming while doing the cut (aka asking if you like this length after a first cut). Again, no frills but it gets the job done and is very affordable.

I've been on the hunt for a new hair stylist, and Grace is truly that girl! From the start, she…read morelistened carefully to every detail I shared and took the time to go through my inspiration photos with me, making sure we were on the same page before she even picked up the scissors. I originally booked this appointment last minute after another stylist canceled on me the day before a trip - and honestly, I'm so grateful that happened, because I would've never found Grace otherwise. Sometimes things really do work out the way they're supposed to. She absolutely killed my haircut. I have curly/wavy, thick hair, and she knew exactly how to work with it - something that's hard to find. The shape, the movement, everything came out better than I imagined. Also, the vibe was amazing - super welcoming, relaxed, and just overall such a great energy the entire appointment. Grace is also genuinely so sweet, which made the whole experience even better. Safe to say Grace is officially stuck with me as a client. Highly recommend her if you're looking for someone who really knows what they're doing, actually listens, and creates an amazing overall experience.

Vanessa is smart, professional and got right to work. her confidence and ability to understand exactly what I wanted and what would look good on my hair was amazing. AND THE RESULTS WERE GREAT TOO! (: I have long, thick hair that can be difficult but she managed to make me feel so good and didn't show any sign of annoyance or uncertainty which I really appreciate because I love my hair. I never really write reviews but this is well worth it!! The salon is super cute and all the girls are very sweet and inviting, feels like everyone gets along and are friendly so the vibe is good. Great products offered by my favorite brands and very clean, can't wait for my next appointment. Thankyou again!

I showed…read morehim a reference picture and briefly explained the look I was going for, and he immediately understood. I didn't even have to over-explain anything. Even though the salon seemed pretty busy, he took his time and didn't rush at all. He was very attentive and detail-oriented, and throughout the haircut he checked in with me every now and then to make sure everything was looking how I wanted. I really appreciated that level of care. The final result turned out exactly how I envisioned. I'm very happy with my haircut and will definitely be coming back. I'd also highly recommend Wilson to anyone looking for someone who just gets it and delivers great results.

Im not one to go to salons and get haircuts regularly, which i probably should do to keep my hair healthy. Heheh but Ako has been great ever since! She is super nice, very sweet, and listens to what I like. Sometimes i let her just decide for me, do whatever she thinks look nice on me with the length we agreed on. I especially love the head massage during the wash and her head spa is great! She makes sure that you are comfortable! She plays nice relaxing music, dims the lights, gives you a blanket, and just gives your space while your hair gets treated during the head spa. Which i very much enjoy! Work and mom life gets very loud sometimes, so i enjoy every bit of quiet I get. I am very appreciative of Ako, the work that she does, and the service that she gives!

Still, the scalp treatment was expensive and not effective. She may be better with haircuts and such. The salon is located in Sola Salons, so it is small but private.

This was my second time seeing Pierce (first visit was back in August), and I'm really impressed…read morewith the consistency and care. My hair has definitely grown since my last visit -- I've been taking Nutrafol and it shows -- and Pierce did a great job working with the new growth while keeping my long-term goal in mind. My goal over the next ~6 months is to gradually cut out the existing color in my hair, and Pierce was thoughtful, patient, and honest about the process. The cut and color were done beautifully, and everything feels intentional rather than rushed or over-processed. I really appreciate how he listens, explains what he's doing, and focuses on hair health, not just the immediate result. Clean salon, great energy, and solid talent. I'll definitely be back.

My husband tried more than 10 hair stylists in SF Bay Area for an American fade style, none of them was comparably skillful as those stylists in China--until we found Leo. Long story short, the shopping is over and Leo is our go-to. Also the entire salon's culture is phenomenal! I called 4 times because our weekday schedule was crazy; however, whoever picked up the phone call for scheduling or rescheduling our appointment with Leo was so nice and helpful!

Mary is always improving her craft from putting in countless hours learning new methods to perfecting the one she uses on me to the point I don't even get any waterfalls in my extensions anymore. I get lots of compliments on my hair and people are shocked when I share I wear extensions because it looks so natural. I've had friends ask me about it and one friend even drives 45 minutes to see Mary now. I moved to SF and I also make the drive to just see her every 10 weeks. Not everyone can do a great job at extensions and not everyone cares as much as she does so the drive is worth it! Highly recommend Parlour 17!

I did an extensive research using AI and came upon this establishment. I called last week and was able to schedule an appointment the following week (Tuesday at 10am !!!)) I didn't know what to expect since I've never gotten a perm before but the hair stylist was Yoko and she was so kind and patient. She helped getting me situated where we discussed what type of perm I wanted. She shampooed my hair and that off the bat was so relaxing and set the tone of my experience. We had a great conversations as she prepared my hair - while doing the perm I was given some nice Korean coffee and was asked if I was comfortable while the perm was setting it. Yoko provided me Instructions on how to maintain the perm and also provided me products to help maintain my hair. My months of growing my hair out and finally getting my first perm experience was fantastic. I'll becoming back in 6weeks for my touch ups. Yoko really took care of me and I enjoyed the experience!!!

I showed them a couple pictures of what I wanted and they seemed super experienced. They were knowledgeable, checked in frequently, and had great recommendations and tips for after care. It took a long time (~4 hours) but I feel like it was definitely worth it. It's been a few weeks and I really like the way the curls sit, especially after a hair wash day. My hair is stick straight so I didn't know how it would hold but my hair looks styled all the time. 1000/10 can't wait to go back!
