I just got the most beautiful, trendy new haircut. I went from a shoulder length bob to a bixie…read more(cross between a bob and pixie). I couldn't be happier with it; Noelle did a fantastic job and she is fun to chat with. I had a little confusion finding her shop in the plaza but it's very near the Starbucks. It was worth the drive from Livermore.

Noelle is amazing. She is a very talented hair stylist. She is also super friendly and lots of fun…read moreto talk to. The first time Noelle did my hair was 15 years ago. She listens very carefully and delivers exactly what you ask for. Ongoing education is very important to her. She is a second generation top tier Hair Stylist. Hair has been part of her life before she started her career with her own clients. If you want a stylist who listens carefully and does amazing highlights and precision cuts better than anyone I know, Noelle is a great choice to become your forever Stylist.

I am always nervous to try a new stylist when it comes to my Goldie locks but Melissa had me at…read morehello. From her ability to understand my wants and needs to her amazing personality. I went in on Friday for a cut and color and left wanting to already come back for the hair extensions and possible ombre. Her work is AMAZING and I recommend her to anyone. In fact, I have some girlfriends from Sac I literally raved to about her and they want to do a road trip and get a new look. A+ on diversity of services. The salon is adorbs. The staff is so sweet and hospitable. Thank you Melissa, you are my new go to!

I have been trying to find my stylist since I moved back to the area 5 years ago. I found people…read morewho were ok, even good. But no one felt right, until a friend recommended Melissa. I just love Melissa! She knows what she's doing. Whether it's color or cut, she's a true artist. She's also not a bullshitter. She's not going to tell you something will look good, if she doesn't think it will. She tells it as it is. She also does spray tans as well, which is great before a trip! She's also very funny and easy to chat with and very patient! So now Melissa has become our family hair stylist. Both of my daughters go to her and they love it! My 7 year old feels so adult when she's there.My mom also goes to Melissa now too and feels that for the first time in 3 years she loves the way her hair looks! 2 thumbs up for Melissa! I'm so glad my friend recommended her. She's really wonderful!

I tried several other salons in Pleasanton before I found Kelly. Unlike the other places, Kelly…read morecarefully listened to me, looked at the inspiration photos (of various long bobs) that I brought, and we talked about how my very thin, fine hair would do with each of the possible styles. She was the only person who actually listened to me, and the only person who seemed to understand that you can't do a lot of layering with very thin hair. After she cut my hair and blew it dry, she asked me to take a look, and then offered to take a little more off the back. I could see that her next client had arrived, but she took an extra few minutes on me to make the cut perfect. I really appreciate her attention to detail. And I could see that the next client didn't mind waiting 5 minutes: probably because she knew that Kelly was going to make her hair look perfect too. The cut was $45, which I think is quite reasonable. For me, the true test of any haircut is how it looks after a shower, when I've had the chance to style it myself. This cut looked great, even after my novice blow-drying. I will be back.

Made an appointment for 6:20. Called in and told them I…read morewould be running a little late for 6:30. They waited for me and when I arrived, Alice kindly assisted me without rushing to beat the closing time. I wanted it short but she suggested not to so I trusted her and I love how she cut my hair! $45 rate with blowdry and shampoo. She's the best!

Melissa has been doing my hair for several years and I love how she takes care of me. I always get…read moretons of compliments when I get my hair done and she does just a beautiful job with styling. Melissa is someone you can rely on to do an outstanding job EVERY time. She's very professional and attentive - and when she says your appointment is at a certain time, she is always right on time. That's very important to me since I have a busy schedule and don't have time for delays or rescheduling. Very satisfied client!

I have been meaning to review Melissa forever, and this morning after coming out with yet another…read morefabulous cut and color, I'm finally doing it. Melissa has been doing my hair for the last four years. Before that I was still commuting to San Francisco to get my hair done you guys, because I could not find anyone out here that I liked well enough. I found Melissa and I have never gone anywhere else since. I always tell her to keep me from looking like a frumpy aging mom and she delivers. :) She is a consumate professional. I usually go in there knowing I want "something fun and different" and she is able to help me put that into words and figure out the perfect color and cut for me. I always leave there feeling 10 years younger and I get complements on my hair color all the time. She takes ongoing education classes and keeps up on the latest with hair care and it shows. All of this would be enough on it's own, but she is also the sweetest, most fun person to talk to, and this is a must if you're in someone's chair for a couple of hours. If you're looking for your forever stylist, call Melissa :)

Highly recommend Christi for a great haircut!!! Got exactly what I wanted. Will visit again.read more

I have been going to Christie for 3 years and she is absolutely amazing. I come in with a picture…read moreof what I want, and she nails it every single time. From hair cuts, to highlights, to all over color, the final result is always exactly what I want. One thing that separates her from other stylists I've been to is she actually listens to what her clients ask for and gives them what they want. I've never had so many people stop me and ask where I get my hair done until I started going to her. On top of that, she's so sweet and personable. I highly, highly recommend Christie to anyone looking for a new stylist (or to change their current one of they are unhappy).

So I went to Kiran last week shes a nice lady and gave a good haircut. However here's where she's…read morelacking. I came in for my second appointment with kiran. This time I got color. She claims to know what she's doing however she doesnt. I came in wanting grey blending highlights. And came out with Chunky blonde highlights and already showing roots. She's underprossesed hair. For my hair she pulled out the foils practically right after she put them on. And didn't even put me under the heat chair. When I mentioned but my old hairdresser who has retired always put me under the heat chair she said she barely used it. Unfortunately my coworker also came here cuz I thought I could recommend her after only having a very nice haircut. My coworkers hair is now Orange and we won't be returning.

Never return there. Just waste my time and money. Kiran cut my hair but left a noticeable section…read moreon half of the back of my head uncut!! That's not acceptable.

Jen makes magic in your hair! I've been getting my hair cut by Jen for 10 years, and more recently…read morewhen my naturally blonde hair started getting a bit darker, as I've gotten older (thanks 30), she has started lightly lightening and brightening my hair to make me feel more like how it was 10 years ago! (Shh don't tell, most people who know me think it's still 100% me lol). Jen really takes the time to ask questions and really hone in what you're going for. In other words, she speaks hair and can translate what you want and she knows what works and what won't with your type of hair. She is also a true artist when it comes to hand painting balayage for such perfect and natural placement! Not only that but she is just a wonderful and kind person to be around, she takes care of you from the moment you sit down in her chair - She really knows and cares for all of her clients! I have also worked alongside Jen for wedding morning beauty and I can tell you how beautiful her wedding hairstyles and updos are and how wonderful and caring she is to our bridal clients, making sure they have eaten, checking in, and just calming the room when needed! As an added bonus the salon she is in, Maven & Co, is in a great location in downtown Pleasanton and is super cute!

I naturally have cool brunette, curly hair: We've done blonde, chocolate, cinnamon & a ton more colors. she's always created what I wanted (which is never the same thing twice) As a person she is so sweet! Great at making you feel comfortable in her chair & making sure you're all taken care of. To other Curlies: I've always been concerned about how coloring could damage my curls so when I first came to Jen she broke down how we could strategically place color to get the end result I wanted without actually coloring my whole head & even helped me figure out what protein masks I should do afterwards! When I explained my fear of wet cuts she was super understanding & has NEVER tried to cut it wet (a level of flexibility & respect I never found outside a curly salon before) . She's honestly a dream stylist couldn't recommend her enough. The pictures span 2017- 3 weeks ago!
