How I came in ( with the orange in my hair)
Natasha R.

Found this salon on yelp and I decided to give it a try. My roots were grown out and my previous bleach job had left an orange tint in my hair. I asked them to blend in my roots and get rid of the orange in my ash blonde hair. I was there for about 5 hours and they were kind, patient and thorough. I had some breakage while they were washing my hair but they had already pre-warned me some would happen and they did a deep conditioning treatment in the salon and sent me home with an oil treatment for my hair as a gift. I asked them if my hair was really damaged or if it was okay they said it's holding up and there's only a little damage but when I went home and jumped in the shower so much hair came out I wanted to cry. I've included a picture of my before and after and the hair that came out wonderful ladies but I wish they were honest with me about how much damage my hair had

Look how beautiful!

I LOVE my hair so much. Thank you Strands Beauty Salon! I definitely am really satisfied with my new hair color! I strongly recommend this salon. Two ladies did my hair as a team. It cost $280.50 + $20 tip = $300.50 I got color, cut, and style.

Lena does her hair rather than help her customers! I

This place is a horrible place. They are unprofessional, rude and unwelcoming. We were ignored and not greeted when we came in. I waited 45 mins for my appointment, would have left if my mom wasn't getting her hair done. My daughter got her eyebrows done for the first time, was not offered to see it . When I complained, Helen said she didn't ask for a mirror which is customary to see it. When my mother and I complained Helen told my mother to shut up. In the photo, shows Lena doing her hair rather than helping customers. Lena also does not honor the 15% off for customers. When asked why is it on yelp she goes it's old. Do not go here !

New bangs, New me

First haircut in years & Ty did a wonderful job on changing up my style with beautiful feathered bangs just how I imagined! I read from other reviews that he was quite skilled, still that I felt SO guilty coming in with wet, freshly-washed-but-not-untangled hair! Regardless, he was unbothered, very polite & rendered fast service even while having to add in a little extra drying & combing time. 30 minutes & $35 later I was out enjoying the morning sunshine with a fresh look I absolutely love! First time customer very much approved.

I'm in Vallejo visiting family and wanted to get my hair done while I'm here before going back home to Arizona. I found this beauty salon through Yelp and saw all the good reviews about Ty and his balayage work! I went in and didn't expect it to be 5 hours long, but it was DEFINITELY worth every second! My hair was completely transformed and I'm still in awe about it. I can't wait to go back to Arizona and show it off. Definitely will be back for Ty to do magic on my hair whenever I'm back in Vallejo again!

Didn't disappoint again! Lena did a great job. It's similar to the color I had last time but I will go back to go even lighter

This is great little in a spot next to a gas station in Vallejo. It truly is a little gem. It advertises itself as luxury, but that's a bit of a stretch. They do however offer all the services salons do. I've gone twice. First time, I got haircut on 1st day. And second time, decided to give them a try with root touch up, gel manicure, regular pedicure, and even an eye lash lift. The first stylist who cut my long hair used trimmers, and my bangs with actual scissors, then gave it layers with shears. I've never had a stylist trim my hair with clippers before. Thought it was an non-orthodox way of doing it, but the result was still nice. I didn't hate it. Charged $35 for it. Ok, very inexpensive, again, I'm used to different salons. My roots have been growing out for sometime now and decided to get a root touch up. Came back a few days later. The lady who cut my hair was not the same who did the coloring. One lady was talking for the stylist who was going to be coloring my hair. The lady translating and I agreed to root touch up and the balayage highlighted hair to be raised further up the hairline, as it was under the crown level. Well, the stylist started putting foil in my hair and did not do what the lady and I agreed on, she did a full set of highlights on my entire hair. It's been a long time since I've had this look done, almost 6-7 years, so, I went with it. It's a classic look, can't go wrong with it. I just had an underlying feeling that maybe the stylist didn't know how to do more updated hair(?) There were 2 stylists working on the highlight foils. One of them kept patting my head very hard and I was getting really fed up with it. I hate having my head smacked. I feel it's a deal breaker for me. Again, I didn't say much, I knew it wasn't coming from a mean place and the lady was just unmindful of how hard she was actually patting the foil onto my head. Unfortunately the amazing color pictures shown here in Yelp are all the men's work. There are a few from one lady, and she's the one who cut my hair. I don't know where the men are at now, or if they still work there. Well, moving on, the manicurist did a perfect job on both my hands and feet. She also did my eye lash lift. The only draw back was when removing the eye lash lift product , the product got into my eyes, both of them, and it hurt. It stung my eyes and they were watering to get the product out. She gave me a fan to help with the burning sensation, as if this happens all the time. I would get an eye lash lift again, just not here. Price for the lift: $70. Price for the gel mani regular pedi: $60. I would absolutely come back for a manicure and pedicure. She's fantastic. It was a long day, I came in at 10:30a. I was offered water once, and food past 1pm. I did get the water bottle. But not sure what type of food they would of given me. The colorist, while removing the product offered to but an oil in my hair to help with dryness that occurs after highlighting. That said oil was $70. She then dried my hair with a hairdryer that had the air blade attached to it. It concentrates the hot air into an air blade and it kept burning my scalp. (Scalp being tender from coloring and shampoo wash where the lady kept using her nails directly on my entire scalp. I don't have oil build up or dandruff but if I did, this lady will remove all the oils and dead skin cells with those nails) anyway, it was tender and now hot air. The hair was dried, she asked if I wanted it curled. Yes, most salons style after coloring. It's part of the process, I thought. Then after she curled it, she asked if I wanted hairspray. Again, yes. Most salons are putting in product in the hair, either a shine product or simply hairspray. She charged $200. I do love my look, I do love the lifted eye lashes. And I absolutely love my nails. Beauty is painful, take it or leave it, haha. All in total, it was $330. I paid and left a $30 tip.

Never a complaint! Love my hair!!! Every time I walk in I get great service!! Thank you!

During these covid times seeing my disgusting hair (see pics) I finally committed to get my hair done. Made the call and I made an appointment with Ty, 4 plus hours later my hair was transformed! A little background I have been wanting this color for years & I have been told in the past I couldn't do this type of color in one seating , that it's a process, may take 2 even 3 times of session. So it was exciting to see the transformation. I'm blown away, after one visit ladies Ty is magic. he took his time, i was asking questions and he replied patiently . Very professional under this meticulous process. i just showed him a photo from his previous work of what I wanted and BOOM! it's so gorgeous! i will definitely be back. thank you so much Ty! I'm so happy with my new look! I paid and tipped through Venmo!

I do not recommend coming here for a manicure or pedicure. The service was horrible and the worker that did my nails was incredibly rough and rude. Whilst doing my manicure, she continuously over cut my nails. I had received multiple cuts around my nails and cuticles as well as a few scratches on my fingers. She also filed my nail till the part where my skin and nail meet was split open. The worker also continued to twist and tug my fingers with no communication as to what she wanted me to do. Overall I had an awful experience and do not recommend.

showing off the new hair !

LENA IS JUST AMAZING! i came in for a confidence boost and so a beautiful wonderful lady at Strands Beauty Salon gave me just what i needed. i came in made an appointment and asked for a balayage. i came out with nothing but exactly what i had pictured in my mind. it came out amazing beautiful and honestly perfect. Lena took patients and dedication with me as she also offered me snacks and waters. super sweet girl. i totally recommend making an appointment with her, for sure will return and i will be bringing others here. new fav spot! area is kinda sketchy filled with very strange people but inside this beauty salon is super beautiful and pleasant.

The nail techs here never miss! I am happy with my gel manis and pedis EVERY TIME! The techs are…read morefriendly and they really take the time to clean my nails and around it. One reason I gave them 5 stars is because for gel, other techs I've had at different shops will clean up the polish spillage after they've completed it. Fong was correcting it as she painted!! This keeps the nails on for a while! No peeling off or chipping. I don't have to worry about it getting snagged in my hair when I shower. LOVE. Same with my toes! Quality of work is so much better than other salons. Yes - I said what I said. The only reason I go to other salons is because of convenience..either they're close to where I am at the time or not open early enough but I really know better. I won't nail cheat again. The price is reasonable and you can walk in but I always call ahead to make sure I don't wait.

NINA NAILS AND HAIR // Classic French tip nails / 1week…read morelater and 2 nails popped clean off , didn't hurt just picked up some folded towels and one popped off and later on that day another popped off just grabbing my phone . Noticed after the appointment the nails smelled a bit odd a very funky smell. I cannot describe the smell but it went away after a day or 2 . I read online maybe the prep wasn't correctly done and I believe that to be the case . Paid $65 and gave a good tip because I liked how gentle he was but I noticed the prep wasn't best but I let him do his thing . Very gentle and polite and when he was done I really liked them even though there was some issues with my nails during the appointment that I had to point out or else he would've left them with black speckles and the white polish was left square in some areas and I had to remind him to round it out like the others . He was very patient with me but honestly if I did not point out the issues he would've left it as is . My mother got a gel manicure and pedicure and they came out great ! She was very satisfied and still after a week is still satisfied with the work ! Different experiences but we both had a good time and the staff are very nice just wish the outcome of my nails were different! Would go in again maybe for the manicure but no more acrylic for me . I'm giving 3 stars because our experience with the staff was great and my mom had a good experience with her nails but I sadly did not .
