I debated for a while over whether or not to write this review. Let me just preface by saying this…read moreis my experience with Cindy. I do not know how often this sort of situation happens, but it did happen to me. I did a strand test with Cindy and booked my appointment shortly after. The first time she rescheduled me, she told me it was a clerical error. Then she texted me at midnight telling me to come for my original scheduled appt the next day, then she texted me the morning of 15 minutes before my appointment and rescheduled me. After my appointment was pushed out a MONTH, it came the day of and she asked to push my appointment later in the day. I agreed and she asked to reschedule me again. At that point I was a little fed up as I had tried to be understanding, but I really wanted my hair done so she asked me to push my appt later in the day again. (Screenshots attached of her rescheduling me) When I got to the salon, I waited another 30 minutes before Cindy started doing my hair. Cindy and her assistant were very passive aggressive, complaining to me about how I was their last client and how exhausted they were, how they wanted to go home. All the while, Cindy never explained to me what she was doing and was yanking my hair which made me feel very uncomfortable. This was also my first time getting my hair done so I didn't know too much about the process. She had told me we would be doing a global bleaching (screenshot attached for proof) which is what I paid for but that is not what I got. In the end, the color was nice (although definitely not global) and to top it off Cindy did not give me any Olaplex products as she said she would. She was rushing me out of the salon and her husband was even waiting around while I finished. Overall, I had such a poor experience with Cindy due to her lack of professionalism, the whole rescheduling fiasco to her attitude. I ended up going to another salon to achieve platinum and had a much better experience in terms of both the process and the result. I know plenty of Cindy's clients and read all the good reviews but I will not be returning.

Cindy is absolutely the best hair stylist I've ever been to...She's actually the first to achieve…read morethe hair I was anticipating for. She's a super sweet person who helps guide you through your hair process and she's also super reasonable with her prices. I've had trouble with my hair since the last two stylists I've gone to. The toning faded quickly and the colors didn't come out as I expected. For some reason although my hair was already bleached twice the blonde didn't come through at all. But thanks to Cindy she was able to help me achieve my perfect blonde all in one session so that I wouldn't have to ever worry about orange payoff again. Her sessions are a bit long but the time you spend with her are so worth it, since she is super patient and only wants the best for her clients. If there's uncertainty in the process she'll be sure to confirm with her clients and fix any mishaps, I really admire her honesty in her work. I can totally picture myself coming back to Cindy for toning or some baby lights done in the future. Thank you Cindy for a wonderful experience!

So, after my second visit with Kim...I'm a fan. I've been using the same colorist for the last few…read moreyears, and while she was everything my heart desired, I'd long been craving some fun pops of color...then Kim popped up in my IG feed. My first appointment, after a very thorough consultation, I left with some gorgeous rainbow, fluorescent peek-a-boo's and a hidden halo of color. It was gorgeous; she nailed the fun hair I craved, and also steered me to a curl expert where I got some cute bangs, and lost most of the blonde highlights that framed my face. Eleven weeks later, I got in Kim's chair, and I still had some gorgeously faded pastel pops of color that remained. Kim created a bigger peek-a-boo of color (a half a head of blonde), re-dyed my fading color, and gave me baby-lights to help transition the 5 month's of grown out highlights. A gorgeous toner sealed the deal, and now I've got a crown of enviable fall hair filled with gray, slate, royal blue, teal, magenta, and an array of royal purples. I've been BOMBARDED with compliments...and I can honestly say, I HIGHLY recommend Kim. The entire time she answers each and every question I have about the process, and ultimately creates a look I'm happy with. Looking forward to the magic we will create in the futur

I've only seen Kim twice, but I know I found the one…read more I used to be the type who cuts her own hair or doesn't care where I go to get my hair done. I randomly saw Kim's page on Instagram, and thought I should try something different. After a few back and forth emails, my appointment was booked. Kim is very thorough on her consultation. She educates you about the style you want done, and how to take care of it. I did not know anything about balayage, but she was kind enough to explain the entire thing to me. Kim is very friendly and personable. I love her vibe and positive outlook on everything! The long hair appointment didn't seem that long because it was almost like you're just hanging out and exchanging stories with a friend or sister! She's usually booked (lots of happy returning clients ) but usually tries to work you in her schedule when she has an availability. Love going to my hair appointments!

I woke up Saturday morning with an urge to cut my hair. I was browsing various salons on YELP and…read morehappened to come across this location as it was right down the street from where I live. called this location on a Saturday afternoon asking if they were accepting walk-ins and the lady I spoke to on the phone said yes. I came in 10 minutes later and upon walking in I was approached by the lady I spoke to on the phone, her name was My. She was the absolute sweetest lady ever! She took me into her chair and asked me what I wanted. I told her my hair was dead (I was previously blonde then went brunette and just got tired of my hair breaking from brushing my hair) I told her I wanted a medium length, straight blunt cut. She listened to my concerns and even had suggestions on how to take better care of my hair. She then washed my hair and started snipping away. She cut it medium length and last minute I wanted to cut it shoulder length LOL. I just wanted to start all over again as my hair grows pretty fast anyways. She was so sweet and didn't even mind that I wanted to cut more off last minute. When I tell you she took her time with my hair, she took her time! My was so easy to talk to that it felt like I knew her forever. I can honestly say that I'll be back to see her for all future hair cuts and trim touch-ups! Like just LOOK at my hair, she did absolutely amazing and I feel amazing. Thank you My for blessing my hair and I!

I responded this is my first time hearing that I need 2-3 sessions on my virgin hair (true as I was looking for pricing in the area). She then said she hasn't seen my hair and can refer me to someone else. In other words turning my service down because of my comment.... Very unprofessional don't waste your time. Never had this interaction before with a hair stylist :/ Her pricing was also through the roof compared to other stylist in the area. GOOD LUCK!!

I can't say enough good things about Caroline. 6/5 stars for this goddess of color…read more I've been to quite a few color stylists in the Bay Area already in the past several years (I only get my hair colored in the Bay area!), and this is the first time I did not present any "reference images" on the day of my appointment. Yes, we did exchange some ref pics through text beforehand as expected, but I always feel the need to remind my stylist of what I want day of as well. For some reason, the moment I walked through the door and met Caroline, she exuded an air of confidence that made me feel like I could trust her completely, so I said "you take the wheel!" and let her do her magic. I asked Caroline for a warm brown (my hair had been colored ash blonde with babylights for about 3 years now), and to have it at a slight balayage ombre from my roots down. She explained to me exactly what she was going to do beforehand, while also checking in with me to make sure it was what I wanted. She was transparent and honest about what could and could not be achieved due to the color/condition of my hair currently. Now usually the hair coloring process entails a lot of small talk between client and stylist. In my past experiences, I felt the need to keep up with the "cool" and "edgy" aura that the salons carried, similar to how one might feel when surrounded by the popular kids crew in high school. However, talking to Caroline was like talking to an old friend. She came across very genuinely interested in establishing a relationship with her clients, and she was an amazing listener. She even did that thing where she paraphrases what you say and repeats it back to you (lol!!!). Needless to say, I felt so relaxed and comfortable chatting with her through the whole process. Oh, not only did I get my hair colored, I also got BANGS!!! For the first time since....like I was in elementary school!? Caroline was gentle and careful through the process, gradually adding in thickness as to ensure that we don't go overboard too fast. She consistently double-checked with me to makes sure I was happy with what's happening, and I felt very reassured. The end product overwhelmed me in the best way. I did not even recognize myself, but I felt SO myself. Caroline achieved the warm brown caramel ombre/balayage with meticulous execution, and I absolutely LOVED my bangs!!!!! Not only that, she provided very useful hair care tips and product recommendations. It was clear that she not only cared about making you look good for that one day, she cared maintaining the quality and health of your hair as well. I can't recommend Caroline enough! Reading the other reviews on this Yelp page just re-emphasizes to me that my experience with her is echoed by many!
