We absolutely love Second Story Salon, especially Gracie! She has been cutting my girls' hair for a while now, and we wouldn't want to go anywhere else. Gracie takes the time to walk them through every step of the haircut. She asks what they want, explains what she's doing, and makes sure they're comfortable with every decision along the way. She's incredibly patient, kind, and has a real talent for helping girls--especially during their first haircuts--figure out a style that works for them and makes them feel confident. If you're looking for someone who truly listens and cares, I highly recommend Gracie. Thank you, Gracie, for always taking such great care of me and my girls! -- Frank Herrera read more

Lauren did a wonderful job of reshaping a terrible cut I had gotten somewhere else. I had done my best to grow it out but desperately wanted a better style. She fixed my bangs and the bottom line of my hair, and was super helpful and clear of what to expect during the consultation. Not all heroes wear capes, some wear aprons. read more

The review is for Lauren, who cut my hair on July 24. It's a very bad cut, no shape to the hair at all. You can see how badly the layers were done. They look jagged and are not blending way all. I explicitly stated that I need a low maintenance cut and that was the result. read more

Sarah is truly one of a kind. She's personable, fun, and incredibly easygoing, which makes every visit enjoyable from the moment you sit in her chair.

Whether it's a precision cut, bold color, or a complete transformation, she consistently makes my hair look fantastic. I always leave feeling great! read more

After a previous stylist left me with a color disaster, I was worried my hair would never be the color I wanted. From the moment I sat in Melinda Duenas' chair, she listened carefully, explained the correction process, and made me feel completely at ease. The results were incredible. She fixed the color mistake and made my hair look natural. What impressed me even more was Melinda's dedication during the pandemic. She continued to provide exceptional service while maintaining a safe, professional experience, and my hair always looked amazing. Melinda is talented, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about her clients. Five stars all the way! read more

I have been going to Melinda for years. She is so good with my blonde highlights. Very sweet too!

I went here over a month ago. TBH from the outside it seemed too sanitized and not very inclusive but I was totally wrong and Sarah was an awesome stylist even though I went in not fully knowing what I wanted (sorry!!). Sarah talked me through some ideas and I left feeling very happy with how it turned out and appreciative of the patience :) read more

I came here to get a professional haircut and ask the opinion of someone who knows hair better than I do, but the stylist couldn't give a straight answer on any of the questions I had. She barely cut anything off and couldn't decisively answer any questions on what would look best for my face shape or different cuts or styles I could try for my hair type. I was looking to get answers, but everything was noncommittal, so not very helpful. Not a great experience. Definitely a waste of money. Follow up to the response: I would argue that I don't know what I don't know. And if I ask a question and get noncommittal answers, then I can't make an informed collaborative decision because I wasn't given the information I needed to do so. And if I seemed unsure, it's because my stylist wasn't giving me very much confidence in her answers. But if that's how this business runs, then my advice to other women would be to only come here if you know exactly what you're looking for already. Don't expect strong opinions or input. read more

I booked a lash lift appointment with Gia, and I wish I would have done so sooner. Gia was so warm and inviting from the moment I walked in, she greeted me with a huge smile which was very welcoming. She was very thorough with explaining how the process works, and asked what kind of result I was looking for. The appointment flew by as we chatted away. My lashes came out so pretty and doll-like, all I need is a little mascara and I'm good to go! I'll be coming back for more services, and will absolutely be sending my girls to her as well. Thank you, Gia! read more

Just recently got my hair done by Caitlin. First time at the salon and going to Caitlin. I found her through instagram @hairbycaiit. She really took the time to listen to what I wanted and was very consultative . I did highlights with her as I'm going blonde for summer and she killed it. Great experience I will book with her again because she was very kind, helpful, and consultative. Thank you Caitlin ! read more

Always have the best time with my go to stylist, Sean. He's been someone I've trusted relentlessly over the last few years to maintain my icy khalessi blonde. Always good vibes, good music and good company. The quality of their work speaks for itself and they have a stylist for everyone in any style you like. read more

I'm so thankful to have met Chloe who is beyond talented at what she does. I went in there with little to no preparation and no consult really I simply told her what I wanted and showed her some pictures and she did more than bring my vision to life. I asked for long layers, to try and keep the length(I was flexible about taking off inches) and facial framing starting at my jawline. She's detail oriented, precise, and true to her word. I came in looking a hot mess and I left with so much confidence and radiance. Thank you again for such a wonderful experience and trust gained. BOOK WITH CHLOE read more

Great experience from start to finish. ! Caitlin did my highlights and I love how my color and blow out turned out. I highly recommend this salon. read more

Went to Allison for a scalp treatment and was blown away by her energy, her treatment room was delightful.

My head has felt rejuvenated since and it was really cool to see what my scalp looked like on the microscope camera. Definitely see her. You will feel brand new. read more

Salon Rache is a great overall salon. It's nice, clean and inviting. Now that I've got that out of the way, this review is specifically about stylist SEAN PARKES. Even though I've tried multiple salons and high-end barber shops over the years, I don't think I've ever written a review on any of them. That's because all my prior hair stylists were truthfully just okay overall. Sean at Salon Rache however is in a whole other league. I've gone to him for about a year now and he is just amazing. I'm the type of guy who likes to bring in pics of how I think I want my hair. Sean takes all this in and then he makes great suggestions on how he could even make the style better. I've grown to completely trust him because the dude seriously knows what he's doing. After he works his magic, the end result is a masterpiece! Sounds funny to say that but it's so true. His skill with hair is what brought me to write my first ever salon review. In addition to cutting my hair, I even convinced my wife to switch over from her prior stylist to Sean. She just had her first haircut and is just as impressed as I am. And besides his crazy styling skills, Sean is just an all-around nice guy. My wife and I both definitely plan on sticking with Sean! read more

The night before a Celebration of Life I realized I needed a break and to have a blowout service. A live person answered the phone not a phone Tree like other businesses. Well, they did not have a stylist in the salon at the time they called someone who came in within two hours. That person is Lauren. She knew just what to do in the shampoo was spa quality level and she styled it with care and modern expertise I have received three compliments within 24 hours on this style. I got through the memorial service feeling rested and ready for the day. I'm grateful and cannot say enough about not only the service but the vibe in the salon I would recommend this business to anyone. Bravo 5 stars and an ovation. read more

I came in to fix a bad haircut I got a month ago from a different salon, and I'm so glad I did. Lauren really listened to what I wanted and offered thoughtful recommendations based on my hair and what would work best. She took her time and made me feel comfortable throughout the process. I absolutely love how it came out. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

First off, the salon is so cute! & the spa room is even cuter! Love the vibe! I felt absolutely relaxed. I had the Clarity Peel done & it definitely helped out the texture of my skin! I have been neglecting my skincare & needed some help to get it back on the right track as l'm going on a cruise. The peel was enjoyable. Loved my conversation with Giavanna. You get an esthetician & girlfriend in one. Giavanna is very informative. I love how she let me know what she was putting on me & benefits of the ingredients in the products. Lastly, I love that she doesn't try to push anything on you. She will definitely recommend amazing products, but will also work with you to make sure your skin gets the products it needs so you can feel confident about your skin! Looking forward to my next service!! read more

Nina has done a great job updating, modernizing and running this salon! She took over ownership from what used to be Salon Rache. I've been a client of hers for 22 years. She's always had an eye for design and used her expertise for the decor. Its a perfect blend of minimal meets modern. Very pleasant atmosphere that makes you feel welcome from the moment you step in. The stylists all seem professional and unpretentious, skilled and well trained. There are still some of the same stylists from the old salon, all of whom do a fantastic job. Nina also takes a hands-on approach by training several of her new employees to follow in her amazing footsteps. They quickly blossom into skilled stylists as well. She keeps up to date with the latest classes, hair trends and products, sharing her knowledge willingly. I really appreciate that the overall pricing is very fair, not inflated! Highly recommend this salon! read more

I've been seeing Sunny Oh at Salon Rache for several years, both for haircuts and highlights/balayage. It's always a great experience, from washing through styling. Sunny always listens to what I want and provides recommendations for the look and health of my hair. This was especially important when I experienced an issue with illness-related hair loss. She treated this experience with kindness, compassion, and professionalism. Most importantly, I always walk out of the salon feeling great, with a style that lasts me a long time without much effort. read more

The people were nice and their studio is beautiful, but as a customer with curly, 3a/3b type hair, it's hard to find a stylist that knows curly hair. I mean the girl that I had do my hair was great at what she does, don't get me wrong. I just wanted simple layers to have volume and I showed her some pictures. But after when I got home, did my usual hair treatment process and styled it, it just wasn't close to the amount of layers I wanted, it was no different from the hair length I had going into there. But that's fine! I wanted to try a new place. This would be a great place for people who don't have curly/coils hair types. read more

I got to the salon and the front desk associate just chit chatted and ignored me upon arrival. Wasn't engaging. Finally she explained u check in by tablet but I forgot the name of the stylist they booked me with the day prior... she wasn't helpful and. She didn't assist me. She continued her conversation The stylist was okay but there was ZERO AC in the building. Don't recommend going there if it's super hot outside. Was sweating and miserable instead of relaxing read more

I saw Gia for a Hydrafacial customized with boosters to help with brightening and firming. I hadn't ever tried a hydrafacial before and I will definitely be getting another. I felt like a glowing goddess when I left. Gia is incredibly knowledgeable and a master of her craft. She had a calming vibe about her and genuinely cares for you. She even follows up with you days after your appointment. I feel like I can show up and just say "do whatever you think I need," and not only would she be able to do that, she would also keep my budget in mind. I will only see Gia for my facials read more
