The owner of the salon watching only the parking lot and making sure that you will not park there and go to DMV

After roughly 10 phone calls over a period of 3 days, I finally got to talk to a human, just to have her tell me that the stylists here rent their own stalls and make their own schedules, so one of them was going to have to call me back...? GRRR! Needless to say, no one ever called me. Apparently a 5 star Yelp rating means you can pick and choose your clients. Their Spidey sense must have picked up that I'm not a Los Gatos Elite member...? There is a salon on every corner here and 9 out of 10 of them have 5 star ratings, so I guess I'm going to have to keep digging. *sigh* read more

Why I agreed to have a photographer at my wedding is a mystery to me. Why I am also paying a fortune for said photographer is also a mystery to me. I have nothing against photographers. However, my fiance and I are not photogenic, hate being in the spotlight, and are extremely awkward. We will soon have thousands of pictures to remind us of all those things. Up until this morning, there might have been a tie between just what would have ruined my pictures. Would it have been my hair? Or that weird thing my left eye does when a camera is focused on me? Regardless, my hair was hideous. HIDEOUS. Luckily, Christina came to the rescue. She took one look at my hair, gasped in shock, said some Hail Marys, and went to work. Two hours later I left with lustrous brown hair with deep red highlights and a cute cut. Now I can't blame my hair when the pictures look horrible. Because my hair will be super cute. Though the money spent on the photographer was a huge waste for the above mentioned reasons, my money was well spent at Salon Rouge. Christina worked a miracle, and her services were worth every penny. read more

MIchelle saved me!. I had decided to chop off 3 feet of my hair and after 2 hours my hairdresser still couldn't cut my hair right to reflect the style I wanted. She had already gone too short in some areas and I was afraid to let her do anything else. I cried myself to sleep that night fearing I would have to shave my head and start all over. The next day my friend recommended Courtney who referred me to Michelle. Michelle saw me that day and within an hour she had me beaming with joy and excitement. Michelle was able to re-cut and style my hair to more closely reflect what I wanted. While I have to grow out parts of my hair that were cut too short by the other hairstylist, Michelle and I at least have a plan for getting my hair to what I do want. It's been a couple of weeks since I cut my hair and I still love this hairstyle. I get compliments from everyone that they love my new look! I am so happy to have found Michelle. I would highly recommend her service. read more

Christine is a gem! From scheduling to payment (which was exceptionally affordable), she made everything easy and enjoyable. :) Smooth scheduling, fun to chat with, took great care of me, and put my heart at ease as I got my shortest haircut yet. I really loved how all I had to do was show her a couple photos of the style I was going for and she immediately got it and got *how it would look on me.* At other salons somebody always pitches a product at me. Not Christine; she just made it all about relaxing and looking cute. :) And I've gotten SO many compliments on my hair. My only warning to customers is to arrive a little early to find parking. Christine is totally worth it. ;) read more

I came to this salon to follow Silivia who left Dustin David recently. I don't appreciate paying for the overhead of a nice looking salon (such as Dustin David) when they are not capable of keeping their talent. Silvia is very nice, very talented and delivers every single time. I am paying less for the same haircut and I am happy to be supporting a budding female business owner. read more

Words cannot express my admiration for Courtney. I first discovered Courtney at her old salon near the Pruneyard when I was living in San Jose. A friend with really thick and curly hair (like myself) said she would know how to tame my weave. After a few appointments, being mesmerized by her technique and awesome personality, I was sold. I gave up on trying to find a new place to get my haircut and made that salon my home. Once I moved to San Francisco, I found ways to make it down to San Jose to visit her at her old salon. When she said she was moving down to Los Gatos, I immediately thought, "awesome... what am I going to do now?" Even though the drive is only 5-10 more miles, it makes the return drive home seem that much more daunting. But let me tell you, folks: Courtney is as good as it gets. She knows how to cut my hair knowing how it will look in a few weeks (which is essential for people with fast growing hair- you can't just cut it so it looks cute tomorrow). She's laid back, easy-going and remembers the things you tell her. She always asks about my life happenings without having to bring anything up. She tells me when my ideas for a haircut will make me look toe-up... and if you just want to be surprised, she's great at doing whatever she wants that will ensure you come out of the store hotter than you were the moment you walked in. She may be new to Salon Rouge, but she's now one of their greatest assets. read more

Christina kindly did the test strip for me (months ago, I suck at updating). Sadly, it doesn't seem to be for me. But I love that she was honest with me and did research for me. She told me that it would be possible to do the process twice, but with my fine hair, she wouldn't advise it. She wasn't into just doing something I "thought" I wanted, taking my money, and leaving me with the consequences. Instead, she has come up with a new treatment that may work, but I've been dragging my feet on doing my own research. She has also offered to teach me how to blow out my hair, which I have also dragged my feet on. (I'm quite the procrastinator!) She truly evaluates your hair and what you say you want. She then let's you know if it is possible or what you can realistically expect. Yay Christina! read more

The owner told me he has had 3 cars towed from his shared lot. I believe in a circle of sharing and I just found this really cruel. Take it how you want. read more

I started with Mary when she was at Capelli and followed her to Salon Rouge. She does fabulous color - she first did a color with weave for me (to cover my grey ;-) ) and then recently a touch up that was perfect! And I love the layered cut she does for me! Salon Rouge is great - easy parking, clean, casual and comfortable. Thanks Mary - I'll be back! read more

I followed Samantha here from Capelli Salon and what a cute place it is! I love the french theme they have throughout the salon--it's very refined, relaxing and not too overbearing but still has some character. Samantha did a great job as always!!! Can't wait to go back. read more

I have been going to Mary for about 2 years now and she is excellent and extremely talented. She is always makes sure my hair looks great and eventhough I was late once she still took and squeezed me in. I'm so happy I found such a great caring and talented hair stylist. I will follow her anywhere she goes. The salon is also very beautiful and much more quant. My first visit to the salon was a little stressful because I was late due to work but she made me feel at ease and did actually make my day better. Congrats on the new salon. I wish you all the best! read more

Awesome!! That is all that needs to be said - but I can't stop with only one word!! I have been getting my hair done from Christina when she was at Dustin David Salon - and yes - I had to follow her. She has branched off and has opened the most beautiful salon in Los Gatos (across from the DMV) People ask who does my hair - and I never hesitate to tell them who! The count is already up to 6 of my co-workers getting their hair done by Christina (even the picky CEO gets his hair done by her!) Her work is as beautiful as she is!! Not only is she an exceptional experienced stylist but so so sweet (and funny)! You can''t go wrong with Christina and Salon Rouge! read more

I love Courtney at Salon Rouge. She started as my stylist at Rage in Campbell, and I followed her to the new salon in Los Gatos. I absolutely trust her with my hair and usually just go in and say "same thing" or "do something totally different" and leave it up to her to decide what to do. For a long time she was really flexible about scheduling, to her detriment. She worked all the time. I am glad now that she has me book in advance, for her sake! That way she is able to keep a clean easy schedule. I appreciate that she is always on time, very present during our time (no talking on the phone etc) and that she is good at what she does. I have had strangers on the street come up and ask me where I get my hair done. In fact, I started to carry her card with me. Also, her prices are excellent. Salon Rouge itself is stylish, clean and small. I appreciate that because I didn't like the atmosphere of a previous salon, where you can here people gossiping about each other and the pace felt chaotic. read more

I simply couldn't be more pleased with not only the outcome of my wedding hair but also for the wonderful personality and support Christina provided. She made sure all of my wishes were met and then some - and my hair stayed in place for the entire night sans frizz and fly-aways. This on top of an incredibly reasonable rate AND opening on the 4th of July for me. I couldn't recommend any higher. read more

Salon Rouge - Wedding curls by Christina - Hair Stylists Near Me - Los Gatos, California

This place is nice, clean and trendy and on that deserves a few stars. But the real reason I gave this place 5 stars is because of Courtney! She's is amazing, she can make ugly people beautiful! Okay okay I kid! But she does wonders. She is our family hair dresser and we followed her from the old place. She does a great job with everyones hair and is really reasonable. Guys, if you want a great hair cut you have to get Courtney to cut your hair. Plus she's pretty cool and her wit is sharp as a tack! I enjoy going to her because I get a great cut and it's fun. Her wit and the great conversations we have makes the hair cut go a lot faster. Sometimes, at the end of a great cut, I wish I had more hair so we can keep talking!! Also my kids really enjoy her patience and the great cut she gives them. read more

I just got my hair done today and I'll upload some pictures soon. I HIGHLY recommend Melissa from this salon. Melissa is SO great! She gave me exactly what I wanted and MORE and I didn't even have a picture. I gave her a vague explanation of what I wanted and she confirmed and even gave me a more detailed explanation of her suggestions for that hair cut. I got a hair cut that was punky with a lot of layers that's still long but gets layered shorter as it goes up. Sound simple? She made it look like it was hard and cost a lot more than it did. I LOVE HER! Go here! read more

I followed Miss Courtney Weaver from Rage to Rouge! Courtney undoubtedly is a great asset to Rouge. Extremely professional, friendly, and courteous. She's so flexible with styling as well. She's always got brilliant ideas to try out. I trust her 100% and that says a lot! I used to be one of those types who brings a photograph of a style I wanted for each time I visited the stylist. I know that Courtney will make me look beautiful everytime I go to Rouge! Salon Rouge itself is really neat. There is a lot of parking spaces in front. The interior of Rouge is really modern and clean. It's a calm place you can chill out at. Everyone whom I've talked to at Rouge has been very professional and courteous. read more

This review is specifically for the black curly hair lady that works here. I was looking for a parking spot to go to a nearby store, then all of a sudden the salon lady came out and starting using profanity on me and other people nearby saying "get the fuck out of here, you're not supposed to park here". I was surprised at first and didn't know if I heard her correctly, then the car next to me shouted out "Excuse me, you don't have to be rude". And so the next thing I know, the rude salon lady started becoming outraged and just kept on cursing at us WHILE we were trying to leave saying things like "I don't give a fuck, there's a fucking sign that says don't park here, can you people read" and went on and on as she stormed in and out of the salon and to her car. It's the last day of the year for god sake, whoever she was, she needed to chill and be respectful. You're going to lose business treating people poorly whether they're your customers or not. read more

Recently was my very first visit to Salon Rouge and I can't wait to come back! As soon as I walked in I was greeted with a smile and felt very welcome. Michelle is the stylist that did my hair and I absolutely love her! After a quick consultation discussing my hair type, preexisting color, and sharing pictures of what I wanted she knew exactly how to make it happen and she delivered! She also used great products that left my hair feeling soft, conditioned and even smelling great! Plus she spent a good amount of time massaging my scalp (that was my favorite part!). I HIGHLY recommend Michelle at Salon Rouge for any and all of your hair needs! Her warm and friendly personality and her expertise with hair will have you coming back for more! read more

Salon Rouge is a trendy, clean salon with a very welcoming environment. Although, it was Michelle who was the real reason I took my time to go to this salon. She has been my stylist for the last 4 years and no matter what new idea I give her, she never displeases me. She's great with color and her cuts are amazing. I always get complimented on my hair and every time I am fully satisfied with Michelle's work. Check her out! read more

Very cute salon! I love getting my hair done by Christina. She can take on my massive amounts of curly (sometimes frizzy) hair and have me walk out with soft silky gorgeous hair... She's awesome! I get compliments on my hair all the time! Best part is there is actually lots of parking and right across the street from DMV. Big plus in my books! Cute stylish group of ladies. I highly recommend;) read more

Michelle knows how to work with any style you throw at her; she is great with advice on what will work best for the shape of your face. You give her a description of what you want and you can let her run with it...sit back and enjoy with no worries as she takes care of you...I promise you'll love it! When it comes to color, I like to play with my hair and go back and forth on my choice between highlights and lowlights, solid color, etc...she makes sure to let me know when a process is going to take a few times so it doesn't damage my hair. She is reasonably priced, has a flexible schedule, and loves what she does. We chat about new products and such from shows she attends (which shows me she likes to keep current with what is going on in the industry). read more

5 stars for Courtney as she is the ONLY person I trust with my hair. The only one. From her days at Rage Salon, I could not help but follow her to Salon Rouge. OMG, I swear I get compliments every time I leave the salon. She's friendly, smart, & the BEST stylist I've ever had. Ever. So much so, that I think she's had to restrict adding new clientele. Major props for Courtney,..she's UHMAZING! read more

Suna is here. She's been cutting my hair for years! Great haircut at a reasonable price too. Give her atry...

Visited Salon Rouge yesterday because my stylist Silvia moved from Dustin David to Salon Rouge. I would follow her anywhere! My hair is somewhat challenging and she always works her magic and I leave looking great. I receive so many compliments and am always confident when i refer someone to Silvia and believe me this has not always been true. And to top it all there is probably not a nicer person in the world! I would highly recommend both Salon Rouge and of course my personal favorite hair stylist Silvia. read more

I am new to the area and tried this salon based on Yelp Reviews and I was reasonably happy but not thrilled. Christina, the owner, did my highlights and she got the color pretty close and it looked natural, as opposed to streaky which was good, but there were still some roots that were noticeable near my part and it looked like I needed to be highlighted again. The salon is gorgeous. The other ladies who work there Rent their booths from the owner so they are not chosen for their skills. Ratings for the salon should really be stylist-specific. read more

Great place! I have had the opportunity to work with Christina this past year.....after going to the same hairdresser for 18years! She is hip, friendly and just a top notch hairdresser! The location is great, plenty of parking, classy interior and of course, Christina :) I strongly recommend Salon Rouge to everyone who says my short, sassy hair is awesome! :-) read more

I love it here. I brought my daughter here for her first haircut, and she has been asking to go back ever since. Super friendly and professional. Best haircut in all of South Bay. read more

LOVE Christina I discovered her when she was working at a different salon - and fortunately she called me when she left ... and I have been a loyal fan ever since. At her salon, you get creativity, great results - without the attitude and huge Los Gatos price tag. Her salon is warm and welcoming, she is talented and refreshing. Definitely recommend Salon Rouge ... and definitely recommend Christina. read more

Courtney is great. She has cut my hair for over a year and I love her work, always consistent, stylish and easy maintenance. Great stylist and salon. read more

Courtney is the best stylist I have ever been to! My friend referred her to me when I was wanting a change from my other stylist. Courtney is always on time and always does what I ask for and like. I have since referred both my sisters and they love her too. She has great times that she is available and focuses on you and not one or two other people at the same time like my last stylist did. The salon location is easy to find and parking is good. I would recommend her without reservation! read more

Courtney is the best! I've been going to her for four years. First thing I ever had her so was my hair for my wedding. She did a fabulous job! She listens to what you want and is just amazing at what she does! read more

Michelle is my one and only for Hair! She has put up with me and my "Im growing it out, chop it off, I want blonde, no red, ok brown " hair issues for years now. I always leave the salon feeling like a whole new woman. I have referred my mom and a few good friends to her over the years and everyone is beyond happy with her magic. No matter what you want color, cut, easy or complicated she will make it happen and do it with a smile so genuine you can't wait to go back to see her. I highly recommend Michelle she is great with her communication and getting you scheduled with in your needs. read more

Sharon is a spectacular hair artist. She has been able to create my vision--a wild crazy-- yet elegant hair design that keeps getting updated. I drive 45 minutes just to see Sharon because she worth it and more. She is damn good at uplifting my hair and soul at the same time. Sharon is a listener. Love the salon. They make me feel welcomed and happy. Thanks! read more

Salon Rouge is a great salon with nice decor, good music, and very clean. But to be honest, the reason I came to this salon is because of Michelle S. I followed her from her previous salon because she is so good at what she does and always leaves me feeling very happy about my hair. She understands exactly what you want and always delivers amazing results! She is flexible, has very reasonable prices, and always has great hair :) read more

Rouge of Los Gatos is my new found gem. Sharon S. was a welcoming, wonderful and caring professional. My daughter and I will definitely come back to Sharon. read more

Great location and ambiance. I followed Courtney there and I'm so glad she's out of that other salon.

I've been going to Mel (Melissa B.) ever since she began her awesome career. I love how she cuts my hair and listens attentively to my wishes. Thank you for making me love going to get my hair done. I love ya prima! read more

Suna's hair color is bar none. I have had my hair colored by Suna for over 10 years now and I love her attention to detail and she always gets the color right. As for cutting hair, Suna always gives me a precision cut and makes sure that I understand which tools, products and blow drying methods to use to get my hair looking like I just stepped out of the salon. She is so great about educating and equipping her clients. I just love that about her! The best thing about this awesome hair stylist is that she is not stuck in a particular decade and is always increasing her knowledge of the current methods of cutting and coloring hair. She never stops learning and growing as a hair stylist which is what you want. Her cuts are fresh, updated and color trends are always spot on. Suna has always welcomed my feedback and there are some days where I say, "change it up and do what you want, I trust you" and there are other times when I have an idea/picture in mind and we will discuss it first to see if it will work with my hair type. She's just the very best and is always willing to go the extra mile to make sure you are completely satisfied with ALL of the services she offers. She does a Keratin treatment(no formaldehyde) that is absolutely fabulous for straightening hair. I have a teenage daughter with very curly and thick hair, enough to make 3 full heads of hair. Suna did a Keratin treatment for her and for the first time ever my daughter has enjoyed her silky smooth beautiful hair. The best thing is that it has lasted for over 4 months. Suna has already proposed another newer method that she has learned about that is even more cost effective. This gave my daughter the freedom to put her hair in many new hairstyles that her curly hair did not allow. She has a wealth of experience with product, cutting, coloring and styling techniques and is always looking to learn new things to offer to her client base. She gives you so many reasons to come back again and again. I have referred so many other women to her just because they loved my own hair. I will follow her wherever she goes!!! Thanks Suna - you are simply "the best"! I would give you more stars if they let me. read more
