Every time I venture out Folsom way there is something new to see, but this little area still has the same "feel" as when I was a kid - Cute, Quaint, Small-Town. Since they have only been in this location a few months they don't have signage up yet but you can't miss it, it's a darling little cottage with a red stone brick path leading to inviting walk up and entry. I felt comfortable right away. Kenneth was up front ringing out another client but made sure to greet me as soon as I entered, which says a lot in my book. He showed me to his room, which was super cozy; the salon chair was comfy; LOVED the wash station, Kenneth was awesome; very personable, we chatted it up while he washed, did a deep conditioning treatment, (can I get that hair drier to go pls?) lol, Brazilian blow out and some touch up with the flat iron so I could get home to flat iron the rest (I do that myself). Even without the flat iron it looked fantastic! My hair felt super clean and well hydrated, not dried out at ALL. When I got home to finish the flat iron it was nice n soft n felt fabulous. Loved it! Thanks so much Kenneth! I look forward to my next visit!

Honestly though, I trust her so much with my hair now that I usually just let her do what she wants. She always does such an amazing job because she knows what I like and is pretty much just brilliant artist when it comes to hair. I have referred so many friends to her that all are just as obsessed with their hair now as I am. I've never gotten extensions because my hair has always been long, but some of my friends have and I must say that she is a master at extensions. Don't think twice about making an appointment with Carly, the salon is so beautiful and peaceful and she is the absolute best in town. Update: I got extensions on my last visit and I am obsessed!

Their talent and kindness are truly unmatched. We loved their work so much that we booked them for both our engagement shoot and our wedding day!* Jess and Lindsey listened carefully to our needs and concerns, and then executed everything flawlessly. Jess, in particular, worked wonders on my skin, which was struggling with a breakout and dryness both times. By the time she was done, my complexion looked smooth, radiant, and natural--I felt like the best version of myself without feeling overdone. Lindsey was equally thoughtful with my wife's hair. She took special care to achieve the perfect look, even bringing her own personal curling iron (that had belonged to her mother!) to create the ideal curl size for my wife's short hair. On the wedding day, they even made my mom, who was initially a bit nervous about getting her makeup done, feel so comfortable that she was all smiles by the time she left the chair. Scheduling everything with Sheila at Lavender Salon was a breeze--she was incredibly responsive and helpful in coordinating our day-of schedule. We can't recommend Lavender Salon enough.

Luckily when my hair started growing back, she started "installing" long hair extensions in my hair and I love them. Both of my daughters also go to Skyy, they've changed their hair color from blue to yellow to orange to pink to black and white and everything in between and they absolutely are obsessed with her and so am I. She is a true color/style master... The salon is cool and funky and has happy decorations & colors which make you feel relaxed when you're there.

Yes, some people mention the price, but here's the thing: her work lasts. I can go months between sessions because the grow-out looks intentional and polished. So in the long run, I actually spend less on my hair throughout the year. She's a master of placement -- it's always natural, dimensional, and perfectly tailored to my hair. That's make-or-break when maintaining a bright, cool blonde, and going MONTHS between services. What really sets her apart is that she's just as skilled with blondes as she is with brunettes (a rare combo!). I've been both, and she's absolutely nailed it every time. Most importantly, she somehow gets that cool blonde tone without frying your hair. After switching back to her, I was finally able to grow my hair out while keeping the tone bright. No brassy blonde! On top of all that, she gives the kind of haircut that just works -- even air-dried, my hair falls like it's been styled. She knows what she's doing. A true queen of the industry. Even though I live far away now, she's still answered my hair questions, offered honest advice, and helped me out when I was in a pinch. That kind of care is rare, and I'm endlessly grateful for it. If you're on the fence: go. She's worth it.
