    Haircut from today, and it's already turning heads
    Leon B.

    I have been going here since I was in the fourth grade and I am now 19 and still have never switched or wanted to switch barbers. Long is incredibly dedicated to his craft and always welcomes customers in with a warming energy. He is always open to new haircut styles and always gets them perfectly, i recommend bringing in a picture of what you would like and he will make it a reality.

    I needed a trim so a friend recommended Long to me. I went in not knowing what to expect because the last time I let a professional cut my hair, I came out in tears. This was not the case, Long was very informative and clearly knew what he was doing. He asked all the right questions and made sure I was comfortable before moving forward. Even in the process he would occasionally let me play with my hair to make sure it was what I wanted. He made it easy for me to trust him. So you are wondering what cut I got?Well, my hair is extremely long and I still wanted to keep the long length and maintain the "V" shape with a little bit of layers and side bangs. He gave me just that and more! I was very pleased with how it came out. Long was great and very friendly. If anyone who is new to the area or even just want a cut, I would highly recommend this place! Thanks again Long.

    Professionalism: 10/10 Creativity: 10/10 Price: 10/10 I've been coming to see Long for over 3 years now, and every single time I leave his chair, I look amazing. His ability to bring the style you always wanted to a reality is hard to find anywhere else. A craftsman with scissors, razors and clippers, he makes his tools look like an extension of his hands as he sculpts your hair that best accentuates your features, while complementing your appearance. I've gotten every type of men's haircut from him - fades, undercuts, pompadours, classic cuts, and even the edgier hardline tapers, hair tattoos and Mohawks. He's done them all with amazing skill, making the hair naturally look great. The whole crew is great as well. Kay and Mary also provide great hair looks, as well as making the overall experience genuine. They're all very welcoming and make you feel like you belong. Absolute Salon is definitely the place to go for a great looking haircut. And Long is the man to see if you have a design, style or idea for hair you want to have, done in the best way possible.

    Long is AMAZING!!!!!!! Every time I go to see him he treats me like an angel He is super sweet, funny and he is spectacular with hair I wanted to go super crazy today but I also wanted him to be honest and tell me what would look good and what wouldn't. We ended up deciding to go fun and sexy and I couldn't be happier with the result. I can't wait to go back!!!! Kay was super adorable!!!! She is always a sweetheart and I couldn't imagine not seeing her

    I was in desperate need of a haircut after too many months without. I called and got a same day appointment. My stylist was Mary. I like the cut and style that she gave me and she was really enthusiastic about her work. The price was moderate. They validate parking in two garages which are a block or so away from the salon. See my before and after shots.

    My hairline was altered horribly without prior discussion or my consent by Mary.

    I just came back from the worst haircut I have ever had. Like several others who have posted negative reviews, I don't think Mary, one of the stylists there, should be cutting hair. I am a male and came in to get a haircut before a wedding. My "widow's peak" was shaved off entirely without my consent or any prior discussion (picture attached). The worst part is I have seen Mary more than 10 times before this with good results (one time she decided to trim my beard without me asking and screwed that up, but my beard is short so it grew back quickly and that never recurred). She typically knows exactly how to cut my hair, and we were to a point where I would simply sit down and she would cut my hair how she typically does every 3-4 weeks. So, you would think changing someones hairline would be something that would warrant a discussion beforehand and that someone wouldn't decide to do this unilaterally and without consent in any situation, yet alone when it is the 11th or 12th time that they are cutting someone's hair. I now have to shave my forehead and cover the shaved area with make up or something to hide the stubble and to make my hairline seem reasonable when it inevitably grows out unevenly until after the wedding for which I am a groomsman. I have never ever in my life had anyone do something like this and am over 30 years old and have had hundreds of hair cuts, including a handful of bad haircuts. This though is far and away the worst. The people working here are very nice, but Mary should not be cutting hair.

I was looking for a stylist to give me a long pixie, with an undercut with highlights. When I called Aalon Avalon, they squeezed me into a slot that was open same day. When I got there, and their Master Stylist was able to review and get an idea of the style and color I was asking for . He was very thorough and able to explain in detail how they were going to style me and told me they have an opening I. 45 minutes. . Specialty cut and color can take about three to four hours for the coloring part to get the right color and based I. What was explained to me, I was pretty confident that they were really going to do an amazing job with my help. When I got back, I was late for the appointment but they didn't sweat me, since they just got done with the previous customer and needed to set up the station. When my stylist was ready, she was very sweet and really took care of me to make sure I get the cut and style I requested. The vibe of the salon was very personable and easy going. I really enjoyed the time care she put in to working. When she completed my hair, it looked exactly as I wanted. It was like 20 pounds was chopped off my head If you're looking for a good salon that is really proficient with specialty cuts, this is the place to go. Thank you, Salon Avalon for the time, patience and care you put into me and my hair.

Because I have had bleached hair (as an Asian) for a while, I have visited several hair salons for color and he is definitely the best, has an eye for colors that would pair well with your face, passionate about his craft, and takes a lot of pride in his work. I can't imagine someone being unhappy with the results. He even has a lot of before and after photos in his phone, where you can see a lot of really cool color jobs that he has done, in case you don't believe me. Everyone was very sweet and the salon was nice and clean! I would recommend Sari again!

They matched me with a stylist and I came in on a particularly cold rainy day. The first issue I noted was that they didn't use heat to process, which my formula calls for. Although I've had other salons use wet heat to treat, using no heat was unusual. Beyond that, I noted the stylist would make comments where the tone sounded friendly, but the words like, "your hair is so long, do you ever cut it," were a bit rude. By the end of the visit it was clear she didn't particularly like me, but my hair looked fine under the lighting, so I tipped well and left. What followed has literally never happened to me in the four years I've gotten full root coverage. The color leeched out of my hair - as in, within a few days, all coverage was gone. I don't know what she used, but after a week it didn't look like I'd gotten my hair done at all - my best guess is that because she didn't use heat, it didn't process correctly. I just don't know. I've sat on this review trying to decide how I feel about it, but I definitely always now confirm my formula has to be processed with heat and I've gone back to my old salon in Berkeley even though it's a bit of a drive.

I decided the light hair wasn't for me and she helped me go back to my natural dark hair. She does amazing work and is a super fun person. She is honest and makes sure I don't do anything crazy to my hair (like not cutting it too short ;) whew!). I love working with Kristen. If you have the chance to have her as your stylist consider yourself very lucky! (Sidenote: Her head massages during the shampoo are next level). I look forward to every visit. She's the best!

Always super easy scheduling appointments and the text reminder a day or two before my appointment are so helpful too. I'm a type A person with super high standards.
