I had been a returning client of Alchemist Hair Studio and previously saw another stylist there who…read moredid my blonde successfully for over a year and serviced my hair overall since April 2025, but she moved, so I booked with Khammy. During my consultation, I explained that I wanted to maintain the cohesive blonde I already had, bring the same neutral tone underneath, and bring the blonde closer to my root. At first, with my hair freshly blown out, I thought something looked a little off but assumed I was just adjusting to the blonde being higher. Once I got home, looked more closely, and later washed and styled it myself, I could see the actual result: patchy, non-cohesive color with warm and cool tones throughout that did not blend together. It honestly looked more like an at-home color job than a professional salon service. When I initially reached out to Khammy, I was upfront that I did not want her doing my hair again based on how it turned out compared with what we had discussed. I had previously told her I planned to return for a haircut since there had not been enough time to do both services that day, so I wanted to be transparent about why I would not be coming back. I also contacted the salon separately through Instagram asking whether another stylist could correct my color and provided clear photos. I did not initially ask for a refund because I respected the time spent and product used. I then went days without a response from Khammy, and when she did respond, she repeatedly said she needed time to "process" the situation. The salon's Instagram never responded at all. Instead, I was blocked from their Booksy booking platform while their social media account continued actively posting. I ultimately decided to have my hair corrected elsewhere at my own expense. That is when I requested a refund. Khammy then pushed for a FaceTime or in-person appointment despite the documentation I had already provided. I declined and said I wanted to keep communication in writing. After I declined the FaceTime, Khammy maintained that the color looked fine, attributed the result to the state of my hair, and then said the photos I provided were "heavily filtered" and at that point, all she saw was me trying to "get free service" out of her. The photos I provided were Live Photos of my actual hair. I found those accusations insulting and unnecessary. Her response only reinforced why I did not want her working on my hair again. The blonde I was asking for had been achieved successfully on my hair before. If she felt during our consultation that the condition of my hair, the time available, or her ability to achieve what I wanted would be an issue, I would have preferred that she decline the appointment. I genuinely tried to be reasonable throughout this process, but the dismissive communication, lack of professionalism, and accusations made an already disappointing service significantly worse. I have the full history of the communication, including where there was no response, and I'm attaching before (with the wine glass) and after of my hair so people can see the result for themselves.

My hair is now shorter on the right side than my left side, Uneven, and when I pointed it out, he tells me it's because he is right handed. He didn't fix it. He is over priced, $155 for touching up my roots and I bring my own Goldwell Color & Developer, because I have allergies to Loreal products that are full of toxic chemicals. When I told Pete I would not be coming back, he raised my price on my way out the door on my last visit.

Feeling confident I went back to have her dye my hair. I had texted her the exact color and toner my hairdresser used. I explained that the highlights were always toned down to give it dimension but she insisted it would be all one color. She fried my highlights by putting me under a hairdryer in foils and whatever toner she supposedly used left me with ugly brassy damaged highlights. I used XMONDO color at home (along with a strong healing conditioner) until I could make it back to Sacramento.

As she washed, cut, and styled my hair, she told me what she was doing and checked with me before doing anything. At other salons, getting my hair washed can be an uncomfortable experience for me sometimes, but Susanna went out of her way to ensure that I was as comfortable as possible each step of the way, providing extra towels for my neck and checking if I was okay. When it came time to style my hair, I showed her a photo of how she styled it the previous time and she recreated it perfectly, spending extra time to add gorgeous waves. My hair was beautifully bouncy, voluminous, and healthy by the end of our appointment. I always feel so confident and refreshed after visiting Salon Beija Vu, and this will definitely be my go-to hair salon on the Monterey Peninsula for years to come! The salon itself has a beautifully-decorated interior, and it is on one of the cutest streets in downtown Monterey. There are many unique art/antique pieces in the salon, a beautiful chandelier, and big windows that let in plenty of natural light. It feels like a movie set!

I'm so glad I did...I have been to quite a few stylists before who said they were good with curly hair, even one who had the Deva training, but not one of them gave me an education on how to deal with my curls at home.

My hair went from an untamed lion's mane to a cute curly cut that makes me smile when I look in the mirror...I haven't felt that way in ages.

I just moved to the area and was excited to have my first haircut in a while. Jay is an experienced hairdresser and gave me a great haircut. That being said, she was complaining that she didn't know my hair was long prior to the appointment and ended up charging me $155 for a simple layered haircut, no color. I even came to the appointment with my hair washed and still wet, and she insisted on washing it before cutting it. I was happy with my cut and asked the total, and she wouldn't say it while other clients were present. She handed me a calculator with the total on it (155) and wouldn't look me in the eye as I paid her. Again, it was a good haircut but very sad to leave the salon feeling like I was taken advantage of. I wanted this to be a place I could return but sadly I won't. I hope others can have a better experience.
