    I have been getting my hair cut and colored with Victoria for a few years now. Every hair cut has been great! The Hide Away is especially hijab-friendly. There is complete privacy for anyone who needs it. If you wear the hijab and are in need of a new salon, this is your place to go. I would definitely and highly recommend Victoria and her services!

    Wonderful!!!! Booked a last minute with Victoria for my daughter's prom and I am extremely happy and pleased with the result! My daughter wanted something pretty specific and showed her pic inspo ;) She did an amazing job and turned my daughter into a beautiful princess :) Thank you so much!!!!! You made her prom night experience extra special!!!!!!

    Before and after - very dark around my face and orange/red in the back

    Color Correction Treatment! I started using box hair color from Madison Reed back in 2018. I had never colored my hair myself prior but I was trying to save money and thought, "it can't be THAT hard". My hair was forgiving enough for the first year and then covid happened. I was already doing cuts and color myself so I kept doing it (read previous post). I continued until I found Victoria, she gave me an amazing hair cut but I couldn't really see all the beautiful layers because my hair was SO DARK. The box color said it would be a light brown but my hair eventually became dark and red!? I really did not like my hair anymore. I felt it aged me and made me look tired. I completely trusted her and decided I can invest in her fixing the mess I had made with the DIY hair color-in-a-box. SHE FIXED MY HAIR!! It took all day but my hair is healthy, and I LOVE the color! I was concerned with my hair being damaged by lightening but Victoria knows how the chemical reactions will work on hair and how to make sure the hair stays healthy. I am SO FREAKING HAPPY! I look like I used to when I was younger and now the plan is to blend in my grays every 8-12 weeks instead of doing root touch ups every 4 weeks. Victoria, I promise never to use box hair dye again. Thank you so much for your time, talent and kindness. Thank you for making my hair beautiful :)

    I love going to see Vika! Its like going to my own personal spa because she only takes one guest at a time. Vika has been cutting and coloring my hair for years and she actually listens to what you want and helps with your problems. I've had a dry scalp and have tried everything over the years and she suggested the right products. I recently got a few beaded rows of extensions by Vika and have never got so many compliments on my hair then I do today! I love them. Can't wait to see you next month Vika!

    Love my new style and healthier hair! I had a consultation with Vika, and she asked me some questions about my hair and taught me some things about hair that I didn't know. She is very knowledgeable and compassionate about her craft. She took all the information from the consult and gave me just what I wanted and what my hair NEEDED. We are still working on some issues I have with my hair, but I am confident I'm in good hands. If that isn't enough, Vika is just a lovely young lady. She's a joy to talk with and makes sure you feel comfortable while you're there. I also left with a couple more artists to add to my Playlist.

    I had my hair done by Victoria about 2 months ago. (I can't believe it took me so long to review.) I loved the whole experience and my hair! First the experience was great! After just meeting her I felt like I could trust her with my hair and could tell she knew what I like and wanted. My hair is perfect! From day one I was getting compliments and I still am about the color, 2 months later!

    I found Vicky's lovely salon thru a simple Google Search. Immediately I was drawn to the fact that she owns her private suite. As a woman dealing with hair thinning and hair loss, the idea of me going to a salon with multiple chairs in it make it's unsettling as I am overly aware of the hair issue I have. Vicky not only made me feel comfortable and seen about my issue but she gave me so much knowledge and advice on how to maintain the hair I already have and make it as healthy as can be. she introduced me to the Kevin Murphy hair brand and gave me step by step tutorials on how to use these in order for me to maximize the benefit of these products. I appreciate that she took her time with me when it came to sharing her knowledge and cutting my hair. It was my first time with a haircut experience this memorable. If you are looking for someone who has knowledge, skills, and great customer service. Vicky will be the one to check all of those boxes! She will absolutely impress you

    Glad we found Victoria. She was very patient and calm and made my daughter feel at home. My 5 year old loves her hair cut . Thanks Victoria !!

    I found this little gem while searching yelp late at night. Vika was amazing! Between having a baby and being busy with work, I hadn't had my hair cut in about a year. She took the time to listen and asked questions about how I typically wear my hair. I didn't really have an idea about how I wanted her to cut it, other than I needed it shorter and thinner because it was giving me headaches. She gave me a suggestion that I loved and she was SOOOOO meticulous while she cut it. My hair is typically a combination of curly and frizzy so it can be hard to cut, but she did such a great job. Thank you!!

    I got my hair done around a year ago and Victoria was very nice and professional. I had originally asked for a partial balayage and showed her a picture of my inspo. She had me in for consult knowing what I had wanted was a partial balayage. Later on, when we texted she suggested a full highlight which wasn't what I wanted. When I went in, I reminded her what I wanted done she said we should do a full balayage. I reluctantly agreed thinking that my hair would be similar to the picture I showed her. Almost 7 hours later, my hair had looked almost the same compared to what I first had when I walked in. My goal was to lighten it but after toner, it was extremely orange and I had asked her to tone it again, which she agreed to. My hair then was dark again after the tone but at least it wasn't as orange. The next day I had it curled and it seemed fine. After my first wash (meaning my hair would've been straight again,) I could see that the color was uneven, splotchy, and brassy. Although her work looks good on herself and others, I wouldn't recommend those with dark hair to go to her. I just had wished she would've been honest with me with the results I would've gotten.

    Ask the Community - The Hide Away

    Do you still have Covid protocols in place? I am wondering if it's possible to get a haircut outside or if there are mask requirements. Thanks so much!

    We haven’t had Covid regulations in Contra Costa for sometime now. You are welcome to wear a mask yourself. No, I am not cutting hair outside.

    Hi what are the charges for single color for chest length hair?

    I can’t answer that without seeing your hair. I require all new inquiring color clients to book a consultation appointment for me to analyze you personally, so I can give you an accurate estimate :) Hope to see you soon!

    Hi, do you do Brazilian blowout or keratin treatment?

    No, but there are ladies in the Salons by Jc suits that do, in my facility, would you like me to give you their information?

    Hey , I would like to have a hair cut. My hair is thin and shoulder length. How much do you charge?

    My haircut and blowdry is $125

I decided the light hair wasn't for me and she helped me go back to my natural dark hair. She does amazing work and is a super fun person. She is honest and makes sure I don't do anything crazy to my hair (like not cutting it too short ;) whew!). I love working with Kristen. If you have the chance to have her as your stylist consider yourself very lucky! (Sidenote: Her head massages during the shampoo are next level). I look forward to every visit. She's the best!

Always super easy scheduling appointments and the text reminder a day or two before my appointment are so helpful too. I'm a type A person with super high standards.

    Updating my review after the owner replied with lies! If a business ghosts you and tell lies,…read morethat's a big RED FLAG! I did not apply box dye to my hair after keratin. I dyed my hair on 5/6 and asked on Yelp on 5/8 and got my treatment on 5/21. I can't believe she has the audacity to reply my reviews with lies like this. I will include pics of my Yelp project as well as her reply! I caution everyone to stay away from this shady business. Original review: I was looking around for a keratin treatment in the area and narrowed down to this salon. I did my research and looked at every reviews especially the negative ones. I gave her the benefit of the doubt and boy was I wrong! I've done these keratin treatments 3 times before at 2 different salons. Every time, the results came out great! Since those salons were no longer in business, I had to look for a new place. Jane needed a consultation before the treatment so I went in on 5/13. It was a quick 5 min consultation and confirmed that I was doing the regular keratin, made an appt for the week after. She said she prefers cash and the treatment was $380. Went back to get my treatment done on 5/21. As some of the reviews said, she is not the friendly type who would chit-chat with you which I didn't mind. She did answer my questions when I asked. But yes, "with an attitude and general unfriendliness" - quoting one of the reviews. I asked her if I would be getting my hair trimmed, (as I had always got it at different salons when getting these treatment.) She said "your hair is not straight. after this treatment, you need to get a haircut!" I was confused and thought that haircut is included . Then I asked her "will you trim it? " she said "ok, I will give you a haircut after the treatment" So after the treatment, she gave me a haircut which was 15 min at most. Then she said "usually I charged $80 for a haircut, but with treatment. I will charge you $70!" she didn't say anything about the extra cost for the haircut, let alone, $70 extra!!!! She should have said that before giving me a haircut and asked me if it's ok!!! I was not happy about it but i didn't confront her, I let it go and still paid her...cash! The whole thing took a little over 2hrs, not 3.5 hrs as she lied. 2 days after, I washed my hair as told by her with the recommended shampoo! And my hair was still very curly and frizzy! I texted her, and she told me to go back to her salon and get checked by her. I went in the following week and the first thing she said was "So what did you do?" I was shocked. I did nothing. I only did what she told me to do, not wash my hair for 2 days! Then she said "I have done this for 10 yrs and you are my first complaint!" I was like "so do you think this is ok??? " this is not a complaint, it's a problem. She blamed it on the conditioner I used, even though I showed her a pic of my conditioner during the treatment and she did say the conditioner didn't matter. She blamed it on my hair type saying my hair was curly and frizzy. She said some ppl might need to do it 2 times. But if she is so experienced, she should have known during our consultation! I showed her pics of how my hair turned out great after keratin treatment before and she said "other ppl use formaldehyde and I don't " I said the most recent one I got was without formaldehyde and still worked on my hair! At the end, she said she will do it again for me but in 1.5 hr. I confirmed with her that there is no fee cause I didn't want any surprises! In the follow up appointment, she came in late and there were No apologies whatsoever!! I read a review saying how someone was late and she took it seriously! But when she is late, she acts like nothing!! At that point, I know that she does not hold responsible for the things she does wrong, as simple as being late. The treatment was actually only 1 hr, not 1.5 as she lied. When she finished, she said " this is all I can do ". And yes, her attitude has been "doing you the biggest favor in the world even though you are paying her" quoting from one of the reviews. 2 days after the treatment, I washed my hair with the recommended shampoo AND conditioner this time. It's still frizzy, dry-looking and curlier than before. Obviously the treatment didn't work! It's not giving the result that it claimed and definitely not what I wanted. I texted her, she didn't respond, 2 days later, I texted again. Nothing. I then called and realized she BLOCKED me! Yes, just as one of the reviews mentioned, she blocks you when you did nothing wrong! So yes, I got SCAMMED! I hated writing bad reviews. I wanted to support small businesses and was hoping to find a place I can go for my hair. but in return, I lost $450 (treatment plus haircut). I wish I trusted the negative reviews on this business. I am writing all this in hope that no one will get scammed like me!

    I went here 3 times already and always forgot to leave a review! Jane is my go-to for a year now,…read moreand I always have a root perm, a layer cut and curtain bangs with her. Her salon is in the left hallway, all the way to the end of a bunch of other salons. Her place is clean, and she is always attentive to her customer.

Trust me if you want to get treated by an Asian hair expert, she is the one to go to! She knows her customer hair condition, propose treatment and have nice little details for you. On top of this her price is reasonable, I totally recommend! You will love it!

    This review is for Libby…read more I've been seeing Libby for over two years and actually travel back to the Bay Area just to have my hair done by her - that's how good she is. She's a true color magician. She helped me transition through the awkward grey stage at exactly the right time, and later brought me back to light brown in a way that blends beautifully with my fast-growing greys and grows out naturally without constant upkeep. The moment I knew I could fully trust her was when she gave me a short haircut, something I'm usually very hesitant about and absolutely nailed it. Finding a stylist who is genuinely excellent at both color and cutting is surprisingly rare, and Libby is both. She listens carefully, understands the science behind how color and texture behave, and designs styles that actually look great as they grow out not just the day you leave the chair. She's also warm, funny, and incredibly easy to be around. Even my husband, who normally avoids hair maintenance altogether, got a cut from her and loved it. If you care about grey transition, natural grow-out, or just want low-maintenance hair that still looks polished, Libby is the one.

    I'm writing this review for my mom (she has dementia)and these are my thoughts and observations…read more For one, this was the first time here because my mom's hairdresser lost her place in Dublin, so she found a stall here. Anyways, the place itself is pretty convenient since it's located by the freeway. The place is surprisingly pretty big and spacious and my mom's hairdresser is always patient and polite. I will admit probably for my mom's next visit I'll have to stick around a tad longer and help my mom and her hairdresser when my mom gets her hair washed. So not everything there is I guess ADA available, but it's a minor thing for now since my mom has very limited mobility but can move with some assistance. As for the hairstyle, mom is always happy and I personally think makes her feel as normal as she can get these days and being content let alone having another outside interaction besides with me is always a good thing!

    Came in for a booking with a friend on a Wednesday afternoon after being recommended to this salon…read moreby two other friends. The salon was clean and professional with some ambient jazz in the background. My appointment with Hibiki started with a gentle hair wash before I was brought a small cup of tea and some konpeito to snack on as I showed him the album of reference photos on my phone. We were able to make some pleasant small talk even with the English-Japanese language barrier, and Hibiki was very attentive to making sure my hair was cut and styled in a flattering way that added volume! (I had let him know I struggled with my hair sitting flat) I would definitely come back!! For anyone looking to book here that doesn't speak Japanese, I would advise you make sure you have clear reference photos of the type of cut you want--preferably from multiple angles. Don't be afraid to ask questions, bust out Google Translate, and make gestures for what length you want your hair at!

    Viange Hair is a wonderful salon, and master stylist Kaori is truly exceptional…read more Kaori is incredibly skillful and consistently delivers a very stylish, well-balanced haircut. She has a great eye for shape and detail, and every time I leave the salon the cut looks sharp, modern, and easy to maintain. She also takes the time to understand what you're looking for and offers thoughtful suggestions that really work with your hair and style. It's clear she has a lot of experience and takes pride in her craft. If you're looking for a stylist who can give you a clean, stylish cut with great attention to detail, I highly recommend Kaori at Viange Hair.
