My savior! So happy to have Thrive open in the Point!!! My poor hair was damaged and looking a mess from blond highlights gone wrong with uneven roots and too bright before Kimberly worked her magic. I gave her full trust, letting her choose whatever color she thought would look best and hoped for the best, she was VERY excited to accept the challenge and went to work mixing custom colors for me from her organic line. She actually used 3 colors which were all amazing together and really complimented my skin tone, giving me a much more natural healthy look with an amazing shine that I have never been able to achieve. She finished with a great haircut sprucing up my layers flattering my face more than they had before. This was about a week ago now, my hair feels amazing and I have gotten compliment after compliment for the color. Before Kimberly started on my hair I was treated to an AMAZING facial by Selina... one I have not stopped talking about for a week. I have never been more relaxed during any pampering treatment, and I have had a lot. I think if it lasted any longer I may have fallen asleep. All in all this was a wonderful afternoon, in addition to the great outcome I really enjoyed my time spent at Thrive. Kimberly and Selina are really sweet and made me feel right at home, I was served tasty tea and got cozy in the soothing atmosphere Kimberly has set up. As you can probably guess based on my lengthy review, I am kinda in love with Thrive and will most certainly become a regular as well as refer any friend in need to come here! read more

Kim has been doing my hair for over 5 years now, and I would not trust my hair do-age with anyone else! When I first met her my locks were "sad" and fried! She used her expert knowledge to turn my hair into something fabulous! The highlights mixed with lowlights always look so natural- she does blondes right! **Bonus**, she is one of the nicest people I know, and each visit is like visiting an old friend, we just chat and chat the time away! She truly cares about her work, and it shows with the care and attention she gives you at each visit. Her new salon truly is a sanctuary, I love the massage chair! Kim also just did my hair AND make-up for my wedding! She made me and my whole bridal party look flawless. I cannot recommend Kim enough for all of your beautification needs!!! read more

Thrive - Hair from my bridal trial done by Kim! - Hair Salons Near Me - Richmond, California

Kim is one of the sweetness you will ever meet. I booked her for my wedding hair and makeup in June. She did my cousin hair makeup for her wedding. She is very talented, reasonably price and easy to work with. I love her new salon it's so warm and inviting w living wall plants n stuff to look at to buy. I think she does yoga classes there too. I told her she should do pop tea parties cuz of the cozy atmosphere. She makes her own tea blends n mix oils for skin care products too. Kind is a jack of all trades. I think she has a garden in the back but it was pouring rain when I came to get my cut n hair trial so I didn't check it out. read more

This place is fabulous. I will do my best to keep this short because I myself don't like reading novels on yelp. I have spent many years trying to find my perfect hair place in the bay area and found a couple that I liked, but none were a true holistic fit. The space: This place is does not only have a talented stylist but it is just an overall pleasant experience. -organic products, rustic artsy decor and a calm comforting atmosphere. It has been designed to make you want to take off your shoes and settle in for an afternoon of tea. -local artwork on the walls -Etsy-like handmade/vintage crafts on shelves The artist/stylist: Kimberly is funny, bubbly and sweet. I found that time flew by as it does when I am with old friends. I walked in with roots any respectable girl should be ashamed of and walked out with hair I had only imagined but could not verbalize. Her products are all organic and she seems to really understand color in a way only true artists do. I look forward to trying out her facials - the product line sounds great. As Lavar Burton would say, "But you don't have to take my word for it." (reading rainbow - for those who didnt watch tv as a child). read more

I must say this is a real find. Kimberly is an alchemist and creates magical natural products that smell wonderful. My haircut is fabulous and the color is so natural and shiny. The best part was...I was SO relaxed by her professional, warm manner and felt her competence, dedication and use of the best materials. I recommend you go to Thrive, she is very talented and we are lucky to have here here in Pt. Richmond read more

I feel like I just came out of a magical fairyland. My appointment started with a delicious cup of tea while lounging in one of the best massage chairs I've ever experienced, with my face being treated to time under a steamer infused with essential oils. After I was good and prepped for relaxation I was moved to the facial room where Kimberly cleansed, massaged, and treated my face with an incredible amount of care and attention. My skin feels awake! I'm so excited to have Thrive just down the street from me, I'm going to be a frequent client. And soon there's going to be yoga on Sundays! read more

My first visit to Kimberly at Thrive was an amazing experience. She placed a heated pad on my shoulders as I sipped chamomile tea and discussed what I would like done with my hair. She gently washed my hair with her homemade hair soaps as I relaxed with a heated blanket over me and a lavender mask over my eyes. Most salons I've been to have bright lights and are noisy with the constant drone of hairdryers. It was as if I entered another world at Thrive. All Kimberly's products are homemade with all natural ingredients. I can't wait to go back! read more

One of my BFF's has been getting her hair done by Kimmy for years and her hair has always been perfect. Fast forward to nearly three years later and I finally just got my first Kimmy Cut. My hair feels amazing and healthy and it's exactly what I wanted. I told her I was trying to grow my hair out but that I understood if she had to cut off a lot since I had horrible split ends from heat styling. She not only didn't cut off a ton, I still have the length minus the volume and it looks exactly like I had it before without losing too much. The next day at work people kept asking me what was different, did I dye my hair? Nope! I just lost all the frizz and the frump and the dead ends without sacrificing too many inches. She's magic and I will keep coming back! read more

This was my first time going to Kimberly for my haircut. I own a natural skincare business and have a few autoimmune issues that have gotten me into holistic health and wellness. I was so impressed not only by Kimberly's homegrown herbal-infused hair treatments, but her passion in finding natural remedies in an industry that's saturated with chemical-laden products. Kimberly handcrafted me a lavender infused coconut oil bar of hair soap she used when she washed my hair that I got to take home. It smells so good and gets me excited every time I wash my hair. I already can't wait to go back! read more

I found Kim from Yelp while searching for hair and makeup artist for my wedding. On the wedding day, what she did to both me and my bridesmaids blew my mind. That was the first time I ever saw myself and my bridesmaids that beautiful! We still looked like how we look without makeup, but with her makeup skills, we looked so much better and prettier! To be honest, I was a little worried at the beginning because we all are Asians and Kim is not. But Kim clearly knows how to handle Asian's skin and hair very well and, bring the best features out. The makeup was perfect for both photos and in person. She is also very friendly, humble and funny. I'm definitely going with her again for my hair and makeup whenever I have formal occasion. I do recommend Kim for hair and makeup for any occasions. read more

Kimmie is simple THE most skilled and intuitive hair stylist My hair has ever had the pleasure to work with. In our first encounter she rescued my brass yellow hair and magically turned it into an in-public-wearable natural blonde. From that point on, I have not, and never will,trust anyone else with my locks. An absolute bonus to her natural talent is that she actually has a vision for your hairstyle -longterm. This review will not do Kimberly's skill justice, but I am excited for you lovely girls to find out for yourselves! Enjoy the pampering and Kimberly's talent for hair and herbs! read more
