She also made sure before she did larger cuts that I was comfortable with the length and letting me know how my hair would flow if I went one way vs the other. My haircut took around an hour and half with a wash, cut and blow dry. I definitely recommend Nelly for your future cuts! Plenty of parking and located in a plaza next to dollar tree and a nailshop.

I ran into this place online and decided to give it a shot based on reviews, even though it was a bit of a drive. I am so glad I did!

He was very nice and knew exactly what to do and it turned out perfect. Tina was also super nice and welcoming. Overall amazing service and affordable prices especially compared to other places in SF region. Will definitely be coming back :)

I am so happy to have found kelly and this salon! I have been dying/bleaching my hair to blonde and…read morelight colors for years. I recently just moved here and blessed that my first salon did their job nicely. I had blonde long hair with roots grown out. I got ombré ash blonde, it took about 5 hours for the whole process and it was $280 (tip 20% for total of $336). Kelly and her assistant were mindful and gentle with my hair, and the process was very smooth. She also added a mask and other products to make sure my hair isn't dead haha The salon itself is very well kept and clean, which is a huge plus for me. There is street parking and I didn't have trouble finding any on a Thursday afternoon. Overall, I will be coming here for all my hair requests. Recommend for any bleached hair girlies out there!

He reached out for a conversation before I came in and I knew I was in good hands. And then I was BLOWN AWAY by what he was able to achieve!! I had expected it would take a few visits to get there. Justin knows hair!! There is a science and an art to color, especially for those of us wanting dimensional color. Justin has both expertise and artistry!! I'm just delighted. I want to also mention that the salon itself is lovely. Spacious and airy, with a sweet back patio. I loved the art, too. The whole experience was uplifting! Justin is easy to talk to, the vibes are chill. I'm including before and after photos in hopes that my review might help someone else in a similarly desperate situation. You can trust Justin at Salon 1500!! He's awesome!!

5 Stars for Justin Lorenz! ***** I'm lucky enough to live right around the corner from the salon,…read moreand Justin has become my absolute go‑to for both haircut and color. He's incredibly accommodating, especially with my unpredictable work schedule and the constant juggle of being a mom. He always communicates clearly about his availability and somehow finds a way to make things work, even when I need a last‑minute rescue for a quick color or cut. Justin is not only professional but genuinely thoughtful in his approach. He asks great questions about what I need, offers helpful recommendations, and always makes sure we're on the same page before he starts. The cuts he's given me have been amazing, easy to manage, and perfect for someone who's always on the go. On top of all that, he's just a wonderful person. He's caring, a great listener, and creates such a comfortable, welcoming experience every time I'm in his chair. Honestly, these appointments make my days better.

It's very hard to find someone who cuts Asian hair well and Yao, does it perfectly each time! He's always super friendly too and easy to chat with. He takes his time cutting your hair and keeps asking questions to keep you involved in the process to make sure it's what you want. My family lives in Alameda, but I live in Elk Grove l, and I will happily drive back and wait until I'm back in Alameda to get my haircut here. It's super easy to book on their website too.

My hair stylist Ellie Strosahl has been cutting my hair for years, she is so good, my curls need her!! ‍ she listens to me try to explain my hair goals and patiently looks at the many pictures I show her of curly headed girls with cuts I like! Definitely highly recommend her. The salon is cute, spacious, and, modern with an upbeat chill vibe too! Everyone is very welcoming.

I just had to come on here and rave about Jessica because she is truly incredible. This was my…read morethird time seeing her, and she continues to exceed my expectations every single visit. I am so beyond happy with my hair. I have 3B curly hair, and while there are great stylists in the Bay Area, Jessica is the first person I've personally found who truly understands my curls, my shape, and how color works with my natural texture. From the very first appointment, I felt completely confident in her hands. This visit she did my balayage, a curly cut, and a treatment - and the results are absolutely beautiful. My curls are bouncy, defined, healthy, and the color is so soft and natural with gorgeous dimension. The shape is perfect, and my hair feels better than it has in a long time. On top of the amazing hair, the studio experience itself is such a vibe. They had warm apple cider, wine, champagne, cookies, and little snacks, which made the whole visit feel so elevated and cozy. Someone (I think the owner!) even brought me another warm apple cider without me asking - it was such a thoughtful touch. Everyone in the salon is genuinely kind and welcoming, and you really feel taken care of from start to finish. Jessica is not only extremely talented, but also kind, patient, and very detail-oriented. She takes her time, explains what she's doing, and genuinely cares about the final result. You can feel how passionate she is about her craft. If you have curly hair and are looking for someone who truly knows how to work with it, I highly recommend booking with Jessica. I leave her chair happy every single time, and this was my best visit yet. Thank you so much, Jessica!

Since I've retired, she has still kept me looking current with my gray hair cut in fun, short, sassy styles. Marlo is always happy to show me different ways to style a new cut or show me how different hair products can create a new exciting look. She's very knowledgeable about her profession and knows how to cut and style your hair to enhance your features. The salon is lovely and inviting, and Marlo is a gem. She's smart, interesting, caring, and always fun to talk to. I highly recommend Marlo at Studio M!

First, It took me an entire day to get a hold of someone on the phone to schedule an appointment…read more They didn't have any availability until the following morning (which was this morning). I had an appointment at 10am with Carmen. When I arrived in the salon not one single staff greeted me or even acknowledged me. Not even a "be with you shortly!" so I stood there waiting and after about 10 minutes of standing there and being ignored, I left. I ended up walking 2 blocks down to New Style Salon. They greeted me warmly before I was even fully in the door, and they sat me down for a haircut right then and there. I received a wonderful haircut from Larry (wash, cut, and blow dry all under $60!). Larry took his time as well- I was there for 1 hour and he made sure my hair was perfect. I will never make the mistake of coming to New Hair of Alameda again. GO TO NEW STYLE SALON INSTEAD!!!!
