    How cute is this place?!
    E K.

    I cannot say enough good things about Alex or his salon. First, when you walk in the vibe is super cool and you are greeted by an adorable dog (y'all say hi to Bruno, he's the best) , offered refreshments of your choice -- I mean, this is exactly what a trip to a hair salon should be. Alex is so friendly and incredibly talented. I walked in with tired-looking hair and walked out feeling like Sasha Fierce. Within minutes of Alex making the first cut, I was hooked and knew I didn't want to go anywhere else. I preemptively booked my next cut/color. I highly recommend this place and I'm counting my lucky stars that I found a stellar salon so quickly after relocating to SA. Yay!

    Love getting my hair done with Alex! The salon is beautiful and he makes sure to always take care of your hair. He is also very honest, if something is going to damage your hair- he will let you know and strongly discourage it. I highly recommend you go to an experienced stylist always and Alex is just that! Great atmosphere, perfect location, amazing customer service. 5 stars!!

    I went and got my haircut with Gabby. She was very friendly, professional, and efficient. I got an all over color and didn't sit in the chair for hours on end like I have previously. She had great technique and I felt safe with her. My hair also turned out bomb and I can't wait to go back and see her.

    I normally don't write reviews, but my experience at Studio 27 on April 27th was extremely…read moredisappointing and needs to be shared. I went in for a partial balayage and clearly explained that I wanted the TOP of my hair highlighted. I even showed multiple reference photos to make sure there was no confusion. Instead, the stylist focused on the bottom of my hair and gave me very minimal "baby highlights," which was not what I asked for at all. On top of that, I specifically requested that my gray hair be covered, yet I left the salon with a visible patch of gray still in the back of my head. I was also quoted $50 for a haircut beforehand, but was later told it would be $70--and the haircut itself was barely noticeable despite me asking for layers. What made the experience even worse was being asked to pay the full amount BEFORE the service was completed. This made me feel uncomfortable and pressured, especially when it came to tipping, since I hadn't even seen the final result yet. In total, I paid $360 ($50 deposit + $270 service + additional charges), and I left feeling completely dissatisfied. I couldn't even sleep that night because I felt like I had been taken advantage of. I immediately expressed my concerns to the stylist and asked about a partial refund. I was told the owner would contact me on Tuesday--but he never did. I had to follow up myself. When I finally spoke to him, he was dismissive, defensive, and aggressive. Instead of addressing my concerns professionally, he stated he would review audio and video recordings of my conversation with the stylist--which was also concerning, as customers are not made aware that their conversations may be recorded. He then told me he would "challenge" my dispute and abruptly hung up. This was, without question, the worst customer service experience I've ever had. Between the poor results, lack of transparency, pricing inconsistencies, and unprofessional handling of my complaint, I would strongly advise others to think twice before going here. This place deserves no stars!

Before I found this salon I had so many bad experiences with "top salons" literally burning off my hair and kept it from getting healthy. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my hair other than Studio 27. High quality work, clean, modern & welcoming atmosphere.

    I normally do not write reviews but I feel like I have to warn others about my experience here. I…read morewent to this salon on November 15, 2023 trying to save some money and booked with a level 1 stylist fresh out of cosmetology school. I deeply regret that decision. I asked for simple curtain bangs and the stylist completely butchered the right side of my hair. She told me she was fresh out of cosmetology school and it honestly showed. The cut was uneven, choppy, and way shorter than I asked for. It was so bad that I have been self conscious about my hair ever since. What makes it worse is that my hair has never been the same. I take very good care of my hair and it used to grow evenly and healthy. Three years later and that section still has not grown back properly. I have had to style around it constantly and it has been extremely frustrating. I trusted this salon and left feeling upset and embarrassed. If you care about your hair at all, I would strongly reconsider booking with a level 1 stylist here. Saving money is not worth dealing with damage that lasts for years.

She most recently helped me recover my hair from my impulsive decision to bleach on my own! She was very patient and brought my hair back to life. The salon is clean, comfortable and well versed in services. If you're not sure where to park, there is parking across the street by the block fences or along the street. Definitely recommend booking ahead of time and/or calling the salon. This is Amber's IG: https://instagram.com/amberrose.stylez?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=
