Mary is an absolute gem! From the moment you walk into her salon, you can tell how much care and…read morepersonality she's put into the space--it's stylish, welcoming, and honestly just so cute. It makes the whole experience feel special from start to finish. But beyond the vibe, her work truly speaks for itself. Mary has an incredible eye for detail, and her cuts and color are consistently stellar. She listens, offers thoughtful suggestions, and somehow always delivers results that feel fresh, flattering, and totally personalized. Whether you're going for something bold or just a subtle refresh, you can trust you're in great hands. I always leave feeling confident and put together couldn't recommend her more!

She has been doing hair for over 30 years, and it absolutely shows in her skill, professionalism, and the way she genuinely cares about her clients. She takes the time to listen, offers honest advice, and always wants you to leave feeling beautiful and confident. That kind of consistency, dedication, and personal care is hard to find these days. So many of her clients have stayed with her for years for a reason. One thing I really admire is the reputation she has built over decades through hard work, loyalty, and the relationships she's created with her clients. In a world where one harsh review can sometimes speak louder than years of happy customers, it's important to remember that long-standing excellence and trust matter. If you're looking for someone with true experience, a kind heart, and a genuine passion for what she does, Mary is absolutely someone I would recommend.

I was a disgruntled refugee from another stylist when I was fortunate to get a referral to Mia. I…read morecalled her in a panic when my color was botched and my cut was a mess. Being new to the area, I was super stressed and feeling hopeless. Fortunately, a well-reviewed colorist who couldn't meet my needs referred me to Mia as a brunette expert and great stylist. I am so grateful she did. First, Mia was super generous with her time over the phone and was happy to accept an email with photos and my hair history prior to our consult. I should add she was able to get me in to consult within a few days. Huge plus when stress is high! Next, when we met and I shared the details of my debacle and that I had an amazing colorist in Oakland I had foolishly taken for granted and tried to replace, she was both honest and respectful. Mia recommended that I wait to fix my color with the colorist who knew my hair well since I could get into her within a month--huge breath of fresh air that she didn't try to convince me to see her, even though she could have fixed my color. Then she looked carefully at my cut and identified all that was wrong with it. I was impressed. I knew she'd bring my hair back to life while I was waiting to fix the color, and I was not wrong. Mia's haircut was outstanding. She's young and only been professionally cutting for several years, but she's easily the most precise, focused, and skilled stylists who've ever cut my hair. I had no idea what a hair cut was supposed to be until I met her, and I've been seeing highly-reviewed professionals for years. When I said I didn't need the blow out, Mia insisted that she needed to check the cut. With the same precision she'd cut with, Mia carefully went through each section to make sure everything was perfect. The result of her work was healthier and easier to manage hair that required very little styling. She recommended a great purple conditioner to tone my brassy color (she's a product guru as well!) and together the cut and product allowed me to get to my color fix appointment looking far better than I could have imagined. When I returned for a complimentary bang trim a month later, Mia put as much of her focus and attention on my bangs as she did my entire head of hair. I have baby bangs, and this made a huge difference. Mia is not only extremely talented but also has very high standards for herself. What a gift to Walnut Creek she is! I should also mention that Mia is truly a lovely person, easy to talk to, and extremely intelligent and thoughtful. I am so grateful this sweetheart with magic fingers is on my team!

DON'T HAVE YOUR EYELASH EXTENSIONS DONE BY MICHELLE ALSO KNOWN AS MIN TING ZHAO at Venus & Mars…read moreSalon. No! Michelle does not run a business that takes care of customers. Also does not own up to her mistakes. See pictures I posted SAYING BINSKY ON THEM. I had been having my eyelashes done at iLash and Skincare Beauty Bar for a year having same eyelashes done every three weeks loyally. Yelped her 5 stars! Unfortunately ILash was closed due to hardship of illness so I was forced to find another. So I tried Michelle at Venus & Mars Salon. My first appointment and Michelle was quite late. When home after my lashes were done and using my magnifying mirror as I'm older and need this, I saw my left eye was perfectly done. However my right eye, the last eye she did, was not close to even being good. The left good eye had eyelashes put on to direct to outside of eye as natural eyelashes do. The right bad eye had eyelashes put on to direct to INSIDE of eye which IS NOT natural. These eyelashes were in the same condition the next morning and day as I tried to brush them the right way often but they always bounced back the wrong way. So....I contacted Michelle. I asked her for SOME reimbursement as she charged me $200 and I gave her a $40 tip and would she please fix these eyelashes better the next time I see her in 3 weeks. She credited me $80. I said thank you and to keep her $40 tip thinking she was going to correct next time being more aware of how she's placing my eyelashes. After that though......she texts me "I don't think we should keep your next appointment. I thought I did my best yesterday. I might just do the same job next time". MIND YOU I SHOWED HER THE PICTURES YOU SEE BELOW WHICH CLEARLY SHOW THE LASHES GOING THE WRONG WAY. She then texts me "I'm afraid I will disappoint you again". I said it's okay everyone makes mistakes and we can correct it in three weeks when I come back. She texts me again "But I don't think I can handle the stress to work on your lashes again". I HAVE ALL THESE TEXTS IF YOU'D LIKE ME TO POST THEM. At that time I texted "Okay but that really is not good business practice. You shouldn't be stressed out when a customer is unsatisfied. You do your best to keep customers and then they refer you out to others. Give you good reviews. The pictures I gave you speak for themselves. Surely you must have seen it with your own eyes. I had my eyelashes done for a year consecutively by someone else who didn't do this. I have comparison." SO SO SO DISAPPOINTED HOW A BUSINESS PROFESSIONAL GETS THEIR BUTT HURT BECAUSE CUSTOMERS CALL THEM OUT ON THEIR ERRORS AND THEN THEY RUN AND HIDE??? REALLY. See pictures I posted SAYING BINSKY ON THEM.

Her products are top quality and she offers a number of services. After seeing her consistently, my body hair is a completely different texture and so much easier to maintain now!

Leah's Korean Beauty Salon - would recommend!…read more It's the weekend before Christmas, was honestly expecting every salon to be fully maxed out. Was able to get a same-day appointment! In fact, I was down the street and was in the chair within 10 minutes of calling. Eun Joo kept my length, did only a trim with long layers, exactly as requested! I am always fearful more will be taken off than I want, as that is normally what happens. SO THANKFUL that was not the case today! She took off just around 2 inches, kept the length, added long layers, and light face framing. Very thankful for the refresh just before the holiday. Thank you, Eun Joo!

My 7th grade son has been wanting a new style of haircut for a bit and his 2 previous visits to…read moreother barbers/stylists left him disappointed. A friend of mine (he's a dad too) said that he took his son to UBB and got a cut from Leah. We have Asian (thicker) hair and wanted a particular style (low taper fade with texture cut up top). My son went with 'low' expectation but after the cut was completed, he was thrilled at the outcome. Just as he wanted (and showed on his phone from the various research that he did). The haircut came with shampoo and blow dry too. It was very, very responsible in terms of cost too ($40 + tip). The salon is also very chic with seating, beverages as well. I will likely come back for my own haircut as well. *Note: Leah's English is a bit limited so just be aware.
