I'm always a little nervous to try out a new salon but have been looking for someone based in Marin... so glad I took a chance on Salon B because it's honestly the best curly cut I've ever had! Amy and Bishlam have created such a lovely space... they're both so friendly and clearly passionate about what they do. Bishlam carefully took his time to look at my hair and to get a sense of what I wanted/didn't want and he even talked through some techniques for styling and explained what kind of products would work best for my texture. For anyone who's struggled to find a really great curly hair specialist, I can't recommend them enough! So lucky to have them in town!

From the moment we started, he took the time to genuinely consult with me before picking up a single pair of scissors. He clearly explained why certain techniques and styles would work for my curl type and face shape, and he even helped me understand why I've loved some past cuts and not others. With that insight, and just the great conversation we had, he delivered a cut I absolutely love. It's low maintenance (exactly what I asked for), but also super versatile: I can wear it up or down, and it fits seamlessly into my lifestyle. It works beautifully with my curls and exceeds every expectation I had. Bishlam is incredibly kind, deeply knowledgeable about curly hair, and passionate about proper hair care. His wife Amy was also wonderful. Highly recommend Salon B to anyone, especially those with curly hair looking for someone who truly understands it!

I must have gotten lucky because Jenny Sack was the first stylist I tried and I have never gone anywhere else! Bottom line- Jenny is a master at cutting hair! My husband is a client of hers as well.

I love that it's usually pretty quiet (on most occasions I am the only client...or maybe there will be one other stylist and client there).

As a busy working mom I only get in every 6 months, and her work still looks incredible at the 6-month mark. That's artistry. But what really sets Mollie apart is how she treats people. She'll squeeze you in before a big trip, suggest a fresh idea with just the right gentle nudge, and always throw in a little something extra -- a treatment, a product, a crystal, a connection. My daughters think a day at Mollie's beats Disneyland. She does their hair tinsel, gives them snacks and a cozy chair, and recruits them to help blow dry my hair.

Had a fun conversation with her and I was so grateful I finally learned to pronounce the brand Davines correctly (It's DA-Vee-ness)because of Annie :D She gave a nice hair blowout, styled it effortlessly (from my view) and was very gentle to my hair. I would recommend Annie if you are looking to get a hair cut! The salon is quite spacious and carries Davines and Oway (natural and organic hair products). Annie used a bunch of Davines products on my hair and my hair feels really soft, shiny and smells great! I bought a small tube of Oway hair conditioner to try. The friendly receptionist was super helpful and helped me find the product I was looking for. I paid $85 plus tax (wash, cut & style).Totally worth it. I've overpaid for bad haircuts in the city (SF & NYC) before so this is quite reasonable for me My only complaint is probably the dust on the products and the tables, especially by the front where the water jar is. However, Annie's station was clean & had less dust and I was so grateful!
