I booked an appointment with Taylor after seeing 5 star reviews. She reached out to me via text prior to the appointment to discuss my hair. The salon is so cute. The appointment took about 2 hours. I love that there was no formaldehyde used. I also got a haircut and the results were fantastic. I will be back! read more

I've been getting Keratin on and off for ten years. When I was looking for a Keratin (chemical free) and good results I looked up places in San Diego and found Smoothed and it is #1 in San Diego! I had to go see for myself! Everything was so SMOOTH! Best keratin place in SD. Hands down! Booked my appointment online, then a week before I got a reminder and video of how to prep my hair before treatment! I appreciated that so much! All the tips and preparation is so helpful especially for a busy mom like myself. I had my treatment done by Genevieve, she did amazing! Look at the pictures! She was so sweet! Kaylie the owner is so attentive and kind. She came over and made sure it was perfection and up to her standards which are high! Qualityyyyy!!! That speaks volumes about a business when the owner is so passionate about their product. She ended with a trim to make the hair look like GODDESS hair. I'm so grateful I found this hidden gem and now I have my go to salon for Keratin! If you love your hair and want Goddess hair, this is your place! The pictures don't do it justice! I came home and my husband said it's the best my hair has looked ever! I feel beautiful, thank you Genevieve & Kaylie read more

It's been 3 months since my treatment and my hair still looks great! Taylor smoothed my hair and also gave me a great haircut that perfectly shaped my long layers. She was a pleasure to converse with and super accommodating in getting me in at a time that was earlier than posted hours. Love the results, the salon and the entire experience. Will be back for a refresh! read more

I am giving Smoothed 5 stars based on their friendly and highly competent staff beautiful OPEN AIR salon, great customer service, and clear communications. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who would like to explore keratin treatments. I had been getting Brazilian Blowout brand treatments for 10++ years and had to stop due to health concerns. I decided to try alternative keratin treatments and so my review is focused on my experience with keratin compared to my many years of getting BB brand treatments. When I went in for my first treatment the staff at Smoothed recommended Keratherapy brand treatment for my hair type. Here are my pros/cons: Pros - -100% safe, I had no negative health reactions to the treatment (YAY!) -My hair is more manageable, easier to "tame" -My hair dries and straightens faster with heat tools -If I air dry I have less frizz -The service was fast! Even with the additional "soak in" period I was out of there in less than 2 hours. Now the cons - -My hair is not nearly as easy to manage as with BB brand treatments (Boo!) -After three washes (over 2 weeks) with recommended hair products my hair is reacting like it would 4 to 6 weeks into a BB brand treatment -My color treated hair changed colors from the treatment - I am two shades lighter and a lot more red than I was before my keratin treatment. (Weird!) -I would trade all these less desirable effects for a SAFER treatment but the hard part is the cost. The less effective, albeit safer, treatment costs almost 30% more. I know there are other brand products that Smoothed offers and I will be back to try out some others. :) read more

Absolutely OBSESSED with our experience at Smoothed Salon! My daughter and I both had keratin treatments with Kaylie and Genevive, and we couldn't be happier. From the moment we walked in, they made us feel so welcome and taken care of. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and warm personalities made the whole experience feel more like a pampering session than a salon visit. Our hair has never looked--or felt--better! Silky, smooth, frizz-free, and healthy. These two are absolute magic with their hands, and it's clear they genuinely care about their clients. Highly recommend Kaylie and Genevive to anyone looking for a flawless keratin treatment and a five-star salon experience. We can't wait to come back! ‍ read more

After having some really negative salon experiences in the past, my visit to Smoothed Salon was such a breath of fresh air. Taylor and Kaylie were both so kind, professional, and easy to be around. They made me feel completely comfortable from the start, even with my super thick and very long hair that usually feels like a chore for stylists. They don't just offer keratin as a side service; it's their sole focus, and it shows. They took the time to understand my hair and customized the treatment specifically for my texture and goals. The results are amazing. I've truly never felt better about my hair! I left feeling so happy with the results and genuinely cared for throughout the entire appointment. It's such a relief to have finally found a place where I feel confident and relaxed. I'm already looking forward to coming back later this year! read more

I love my Smoothed hair! I wouldn't go anywhere else. If you maintain it properly, the treatment lasts 5ever.

Such a lovely and valuable and completely Hair changing experience. My hair neeeeeeeds Keratin and I had no idea. The smoothed crew was honest with me, recommended their best and feel like friends in my neighborhood. Plus the plants are a VIBE. Recommend! read more

I rarely leave reviews, but I just had to share my experience with this place. I'm 60 years old and had grown tired of my hair being frizzy and dry. My daughter found this salon for me, and I decided to give it a try -- I'm so glad I did. Not only is the salon absolutely beautiful, but the atmosphere is also warm and inviting. Taylor, the young lady who did my hair, was truly wonderful -- beautiful both inside and out. She made me feel as though she'd known me for years. As for my hair, I'm simply amazed by the transformation. It's incredibly smooth now, and I'm 100% satisfied with the results. Deserie F read more

Keratin treatments have been the biggest game changer for me I don't know why I never did it sooner! I've always loved my wavy curls but the frizz is what was the issue. My hair would be a lion and I always had to have it done (straightened or curled with hot tool). After my first treatment, I noticed a significant difference! I loved the calmness of my hair so much with my wavy curls still in place, I did not even want to style it. It was the first time ever I wanted to rock my natural hair! Waited 3 months and got another. Since the first, I've had significant hair growth and I got to see my before pictures. It was amazing the difference my hair is now from then, even after time passed. I am going in for my 3rd treatment and I cannot wait! I appreciate Smoothed and Kaylie's expertise for working magic on my hair! read more

Super rude to people. Especially to those who are genuinely asking questions and trying to figure out hair problems she spoke really rude to me and my friends, mind you first interaction with her i was not impressed at all. read more

The absolute best experience from start to finish. I was desperate for something to help manage my daughter's beautiful curls. We've had so many nights of tears from trying to detangle, spent thousands of dollars on product, but they just weren't healthy and thriving. I stumbled across Smoothed on TikTok. We were at our wits end so I decided to give it a try. I am so glad I did! This was hands down the best salon experience ever. The website made it super easy to book and there's so much great information so that you know exactly what to expect. The location is beautiful, open and airy - absolutely beautiful. Kaylie, the owner, was welcoming and ready to go when we arrived. One thing I liked was she actually looked at the hair to determine the best treatment. I've had one-size fits all keratin treatments but they go the extra mile to do what's perfect for your hair. The process didn't take very long and throughout it, Kaylie was explaining what was going on, how to take care of it. I was blown away by her extensive knowledge, it's clear she knows her stuff and I was impressed how she continuously talked to the other stylists to help them get more experience with different hair types. The proof was after. My daughter's hair is soft, manageable and for the first time we had an easy hair wash. Truly life changing! Check out Smoothed - we are so lucky to have them in San Diego! read more

Always such an amazing experience at Smoothed!! They're so educated on everything about Keratin I feel like I learn so much from them when I'm in the chair. The best keratin treatments I've ever had on my hair and I've been getting keratin for over 10 years. Taylor and Kaylie are also the sweetest and make the time go by so fast. Worth every penny. read more

Smoothed salon was everything I expected it to be! I saw Genevieve for my keratin treatment and she was so fun to work with! My experience in the salon was 10/10, Kaylie did my consultation and she was able to help tailor my treatment to my hair exactly how I wanted it. She was so knowledgeable and even helped me understand my hair better. I didn't expect to have a a great silk press but it actually was super straight and was considering wearing my hair straight more often, UNTIL I saw the curl results!!!! I have gotten keratin treatments before but none have turned out like this! My curls stretched in all the right places and I will definitely be coming back for another one once it starts to wash out. The prices are pretty high (pretty standard for a keratin treatment though) but soooo worth every penny. My hair is more manageable now and I finally don't have as much shrinkage!! Thank you so much Genevieve and Kaylie, forever grateful and can't wait to see you all again! read more

I had my first keratin treatment at Smoothed with Taylor and it was genuinely life changing. Reduced dry and style time, a lot less time spent detangling and it's helped keep my color processed hair stay healthy. Keratin also made my Summer spent in the water more manageable. The best part is that I have maintained my curl pattern and it made most days a good natural hair day. I can't wait to go back for my second treatment soon. read more

I love the way my hair has turned out from the keratin treatment! I'm happy that I still have my curls and my frizz has reduced a lot making my hair a lot easier to manage.

Moved to San Diego from New York where I had been getting Keratin's for 17 years so I was looking for the perfect salon where I could get one! I found Smoothed and I'm so happy I did. I got a keratin done by Taylor and it lasted so long, probably the longest a Keratin has ever lasted on me.... Going on six months and it's still looking good! The owner Kaylie is also so nice and friendly and the salon is so clean and cute in such a nice space. If you are looking for a Keratin in San Diego, this is your place to go!! read more

This review is long over due. I'm not sure what else I can say but do your hair a favor and get your keratin at Smoothed. I've been getting keratin treatments for over 10 years and 8 of those have been with Kaylie. She's an amazing stylist and professional. Since I've started getting keratin treatments my hair is much more healthy and can grow ridiculously long. I can't thank Kaylie enough for taking care of my hair. read more

I have never known what to do with my hair for most of my life. Having THICK and a round face always made me feel self-conscious, so I always wore it up in a top knot. I had heard people talking about keratin treatments for a while and was always curious. I saw a few ads and looked at the reviews for SD Keratin and scheduled an appointment on my day off. Let me tell you... I was overwhelmed with how I felt and looked! Taylor took amazing care of me and to be honest, I haven't felt this good about myself in years! Kaylie and Taylor are amazing and I will be singing their praises to everyone. Thank you ladies! read more

I am so happy to find this place! I have super thick curly hair and have always struggled finding a hairstylist that knows how to do ethnic hair. Kaylie is so honest and understands hair texture extremely well. She ended up informing me about my hair in our consultation and what keratin will actually achieve vs. my dream expectations. It is nice to find someone who is transparent and truly cares about enhancing hair beauty. You can tell that for Kaylie it isn't about selling a service but about building a relationship with her clients. Love love this place! read more

If I could Kaylie and SD Keratin 6 stars, I would. I was long overdue the last time I went to see her and I cannot tell you the difference her keratin treatments have made on my hair! My previously unruly and unmanageable hair is now silky and shiny, and doesn't even require the blow dryer or flat iron to look great! In addition to hair treatments that are effective and long lasting, being in Kaylie's chair is always a great experience. She is the consummate professional, always on time and extremely focused. My hair has never been longer or looked better. That's all I need to say... her clients' gorgeous hair are "the proof in the pudding". She is a hair magician! If you need a keratin treatment, I can honestly say that Kaylie at SD Keratin is the one place that I highly recommend, without reservation. read more

I travel from Northern California just to have Kaylie smooth my hair with keratin.

Once my treatment is complete, my hair is so manageable and I actually enjoy styling it! If you have frizzy, unruly hair or just want to cut out using hot tools, this is the answer!!! I cannot recommend Kaylie and SD Keratin enough, if you invest in one thing for your hair let it be SDkeratin! read more

Just returned for my keratin touch up with Kaylie and Taylor and I loveeeee my hair. My hair has grown inches since I started seeing Kaylie 6 months ago with a trim every 4 months or so. Her new salon is absolutely gorgeous by the way! read more

I had an exceptional experience with Kaylie for my haircut and keratin treatment. Her expertise and professionalism were evident throughout, and she made the entire process enjoyable with engaging conversation. She also took the time to provide detailed instructions for post-treatment care and she generously offered samples of recommended hair products. Kaylie also has a great technology solution for booking, it was easy to book an appointment on line, which she also confirmed. She has a great spot in La Jolla with lots of natural light and fresh air - I have been twice and have had no issues with parking close to her location, I highly recommend Kaylie for her skill and friendly demeanor. I'm looking forward to my next keratin treatment with her in a few months Five stars without a doubt! read more

I had my first keratin and cut appointment with Kaylie recently and she blew it out of the park! She was so efficient yet detailed throughout the whole process - she had fans blowing so there wasn't any fumes! I also love my haircut - this woman literally kneeled on the floor to get the right cut for me. She will go above and beyond for your hair. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! read more

Nothing to say but.. wow! Kaylie is so knowledgeable and knows exactly what she is doing. I have thick curly hair and as all the curly girls know it's always a risk going to a new stylist because not everyone knows how to work with textured hair. That being said Kaylie knows EXACTLY what she is doing and will give you a customized treatment that's sure to work. I'm on my second treatment and I'm hooked. read more

I booked with the owner Kaylie to see if she could fit me in on my 21st birthday for long layers. She had availability on my birthday and wow did she make it so special! She wrote happy birthday on my mirror and gave me a glass of champagne to celebrate my 21st. Kaylie did an AMAZING JOB! Not only did she make me feel welcomed and special, my hair looks amazing. She gave me exactly what I wanted and more. Thank you Kaylie for making my 21st so special and for making my hair look beautiful and healthy! She ate downnnnn read more
