I am so glad I found this salon! I moved to Poway a year ago and made my first appointment with Ashley and after that I was hooked!

Susie did an amazing job on my hair and makeup on my wedding day this spring! I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted, but I sent Susie several photo examples, and she came up with a loose side up-do with braids and a makeup style that worked perfectly for me. She and her assistant, Jalisa, did hair and makeup for my wedding party and we were all pleased with the beautiful job that they did. They were friendly, fun, and professional, and had us all ready with time to spare! Thank you for making me feel special on my wedding day, Susie! read more

I had read the reviews and saw the ad about free hair cut for 1st time customers. I'm always scared to try a new place but the reviews were great and for a good reason. It was easy to make an appointment via text message and they were able to fit me in really soon. My hair is dark blonde and I have gray. I had colored it myself and it was horribly dull and dry. I had an appointment with Stacey who right away understood what I wanted to do with my hair. She did an amazing job and I have definetely found my new stylist! She also had great tips how to care for my hair and also save money! read more

Ellie did wedding hair and makeup for me, my mom and my bridesmaids. She and her colleagues were friendly and did a great job! My mom has short hair and I wasn't sure what she'd be able to do to make it look much different, but she gave it some glamourous volume that lasted through brunch the next day, and my mom got too many compliments to count. My bridesmaids were happy with their hair and makeup, I loved the airbrush makeup, and my updo lasted all day too! read more

A New Twist - wedding hair - Hair Salons Near Me - Poway, California

It is an obvious statement to say that, as a bride, you do not want to leave your hair and makeup to chance. You are in the best of hands with Susie and Ellie at A New Twist in Poway, CA. I was married in San Marcos, CA on August 16, 2019, and I was so blessed to have come across Susie and Ellie. They made my wedding day "look" become a reality. I felt so beautiful, and they delivered on what I desired - not to be too made up - and to look like the best version of me. As an active duty military member, I am not used to wearing too much makeup. Susie and Ellie made me feel exceptional. I also challenged them with my large bridal party. I didn't want everyone to look the same. Each member of the wedding party, including my mother, chose their look the morning of the wedding. Susie and Ellie knocked it out of the park - ahead of schedule. Everyone was so overwhelmingly pleased and looked magnificent on our big day. Susie and Ellie even traveled to our hotel, making it extremely convenient for us. I asked Susie to come along to our wedding venue to do touchups prior to and post- ceremony. She was efficient and incredible, ensuring I looked perfect every step of the way. From start to finish, Susie and Ellie were true professionals and are gifted and talented artists. Don't leave one of the most important days of your life to chance - A New Twist is your clear and only choice on your wedding day! read more

I would highly recommend Ellie from "A New Twist", as a hair stylist and make-up artist for your wedding. Ellie did my hair and make-up for my wedding and I was so pleased with the outcome! I received numerous complements on the creative style that Ellie created with my hair from pictures I showed her of styles I liked. The make-up was beautiful and natural looking, just as I had requested. Ellie and her co-workers also did hair and make-up for many of the other women involved in my wedding.

Today Jalisa gave me a keratin treatment on a minute's notice, AND it is the best I have ever felt about the treatment leaving the salon. 5 stars, and "Thank you again!" This was definitely a treat (and a salon to revisit)! I am very pleased. read more

Love this salon but specifically love Ashley W! She's such a talented hair stylist. I have grown my hair out to donate 4 times in my life but only once with Ashley. When I was ready to chop it all off last summer she was honest in suggesting I wait another 2-3 months to get it to just the right length for the hairstyle I was asking for. When I returned, she created a masterpiece of a short bob with wedge cut in the back. A year later, I STILL get compliments on my hair! She is also very skilled at highlights and lowlights. She's a wonderful conversationalist! She knows so much about my life that I now think of her as a friend! The salon is located off the beaten path in a random strip mall (not very inviting). BUT once you walk inside it's bright and clean and they offer a glass of wine while you get your service (Hey, it's 5:00 somewhere!). read more

I love it here! It's such a cute place with very nice hair stylists! I got a balayage and Marie Hennessy was the best! She asked me what I wanted and worked very steadily. She made sure I was comfortable throughout the process and asked me if I wanted any refreshments as well. She takes great care of me too! After, she flat ironed my hair and I could really see how amazing my hair was! I would very highly recommend this hair salon to any one who wants their hair done or cut! read more

This review is for the salon A New Twist, as well as the so-called stylist Stacey. This is a very unprofessional salon and I would not recommend it. I spent quite some time researching for a new stylist good with layering long hair. After several reviews for Stacey, I decided to call the salon to make an appt. I should have stopped at this point, as when I called (during normal business hours) no one answered the phone. I left a voicemail. Instead of getting a phone call back (like I would get from any reputable salon and I've been to many), I received a text from someone I assume was the manager of the salon. She confirmed Stacey would be a good stylist for what I needed, and said she would have her contact me directly. Again, I did not receive a phone call from Stacey, but instead received a text. Hair is a very personal thing, and I expect a good salon to make personal contact, voice to voice, to welcome a potential new client and to set an appt. Texting back and forth rarely makes a new customer feel welcome from a new salon. So after many texts between Stacey, we book an appt. 6 weeks out because I have a busy career and need Saturday appts. (yes, that was her first available Saturday). I assumed she must be good to be that busy. Five weeks go by and I need to reschedule due to a work conflict, and we agree on 4 weeks later. So I've now waited 10 weeks for a haircut with Stacey. The Friday just before my appt. rolls around, and I expected a confirming call from the Salon, or Stacey, for my appt. the next day. Well, you guessed it, no confirming call or text came. So I was forced to text Stacey to confirm our Noon appt. the next day. Took her 1.5 hours to get back to me, which by now is Friday night, and she apologized saying her system must not be working and confirmed our appt. That was 7:45pm. By 6:40am, less than 6 hours before my cut, I received a text (again, not a phone call) from Stacey stating that her daughter was sick, needed to cancel the appt. and asked me for other days that work to reschedule instead of her offering new dates for me. I also note she was adamant that I confirm the text. I did confirm the text, offered my next available Saturday which was 3 more weeks out, and waited, and waited, for a reply. I still remained positive because I had to reschedule with her (one week in advance), so assuming her daughter really was sick, she must have had to cancel appts. with many customers since she appears to be so busy. This is where my positive attitude ended. This chick never even bothered to respond to my reschedule text, ever!! I had to text her again 4 days later and now she appears to be booked for 3 more weeks out. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that 1) she obviously could care less about having a new client or wants my business; and 2) because of the lack of confirmation combined with the last minute cancellation, it's pretty obvious she was lying. I can't believe this is how she handles a last minute cancellation with a potential new client. Not only is both she and this salon unprofessional, this is the worst I've ever seen. I hardly ever do reviews, but this won't be my last review for this stylist or her salon! read more

As a guy, I typically have to pick between a bad or an expensive haircut. That changed when I met Ellie. She does a fantastic job at a great price. I have recommended her to all my friends and family who immediately loved her. I would give her and her salon 6 stars if I could. read more
