Azure is one of those rare people who is just as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside.

My skin looks brilliant, radiant, refreshed, and healthier than it has in a long time (early 40s takes its toll!) One of the biggest wins was that she was able to remove a ton of stubborn blackheads that had been bothering me, and my skin feels so much smoother because of it. She also gave me thoughtful, personalized recommendations for my skincare routine going forward without ever making me feel pressured to buy products. The space itself is clean, modern, calming, and with a beautiful view overlooking Balboa Park, which made the entire experience feel even more relaxing. If you're looking for an esthetician who is knowledgeable, genuinely caring, and delivers amazing results, I highly recommend booking with Azure.

BOOK WITH JUAN at Salon First! I've been going to Juan for over 10 years, and he is truly the only person I trust with my hair. Whether it's color, cuts, layering, or styling, he consistently exceeds my expectations every single time. His attention to detail is incredible, and his layering skills are honestly unmatched. Beyond his talent, Juan is just an amazing human being. He makes every appointment such a great experience with his positive energy, kindness, and professionalism. You can tell he genuinely cares about his clients and takes pride in his work. I've referred so many friends, family members, and colleagues to him over the years, and every single one of them has become a loyal client. That's a testament to the quality of his work and the person he is. If you're looking for a hairstylist who is talented, trustworthy, and consistently delivers exceptional results, I cannot recommend Juan highly enough. He's the best of the best! read more

I am 73 years young. I have visited literally dozens if not hundreds of hair salons over these many years. I have never found any one hairdresser with a more kind spirit, personality and amazing ability to do with my still full head of hair what I want done. This amazing lady is a real jewel operating in a jewel of a place , Coronado, California just across the bridge from San Diego Bay. I so much recommend everyone, boys or girls to try this awesome young woman. You'll be so happy you did. Always insist for her to wash your hair even if you washed it that morning as she gives the most amazing shampoo and head and scalp massage ever! read more

I am a BIG fan of Marilyn. I am a long-time client, and could not see myself going to another stylist! I must start off by saying that I have curly hair, and I have had my share of hairstylists who are unfamiliar with cutting it- yes, it's different! Marilyn's cuts have enhanced my curls, without leaving it with the mushroom-like step look I have gotten in the past. This is mostly due to the fact that Marilyn LISTENS to the client. She pays careful attention to what I am looking for and offers advice to meet my hair goals. Most importantly, Marilyn is a true professional, who is always looking to improve her craft. read more

Marilyn is the epitome of exceptional service! Not only does she always give the perfect cut, but she also asks all the right questions, takes her time to get every detail right, and she offers helpful advice to help between cuts. Spending time in Marilyn's chair is a heavenly little retreat that I always look forward to getting back to. I leave the salon feeling fabulous, get compliments left and right and never stumble trying to recreate what she did, because she always points out exactly what I need to do to maintain my style at home. I can't recommend Marilyn any more highly! read more

We were in Coronado for a wedding 7 Long Island New York women and who was going to do our hair? After 1 phone call to Modern Marilyn we were booked and stylist ready to help us in every way. Marilyn and two co workers from the Stella Luna salon met us Sunday morning with mimosa and blow dryers ready to glam. The hair wash was incredible and scalp massage was off the charts. The blowouts were one better then the next. The mimosa were readily available. We all had a great time preparing to share in our friends daughters wedding.

The lady told me she doesn't have time now (even though I left the salon five minutes before I came back) so I told her I'm coming back to town in two weeks because I flew out especially to get my hair done and she said she doesn't know how it's gonna grow out in two weeks so she'll see if she could get it fixed now. All I could think when she said that was did I really just spent $600 on something that might start to grow out in only two weeks??? also there's not much of a difference between before and after my hair, every time I told her I wanted something done specifically she told me she was used to doing a different way and that's how she's gonna do it so I felt like I wasn't really heard as well. Besides all that the lady that did my hair was really nice. But- Super super disappointed. Now I'm gonna have to go somewhere else and pay extra money to get it fixed the way I wanted to.

I met Max and my whole world changed. I am so pleased that he has been able to blend this gorgeous rich copper that could possibly exist somewhere in nature and looks incredible with my natural coloring. He is also extremely competitively priced for the area. Whenever I go see him I get nonstop compliments, not just on my hair. People say to me oh my gosh, you look like you're glowing! Wow, you look like you've lost weight! What have you been doing with your skin lately, it's absolutely radiant! And I'm like no... I just got my hair done and can we talk about his blowouts please??? I have never ever had a stylist be able to give me a blow out that can easily last a week with just a little dry shampoo touchup. I don't know how he does it, but the volume is endless, and the blowout keeps whatever shape he rolls into it with that big round brush. As much as I miss my old hairdresser, she was a rad chick, at least I have found someone who makes me look and feel incredible. Plus, Max is a super cool guy, really funny and nice. You've got to have chemistry with someone that you're going to be sitting with for multiple hours every month or so. I really never thought I would find that again! The salon itself is really cute and I like their boutique. I'm always looking at the fun clothes they have in stock.
