    I'm so happy I found Lynn. I'm letting my gray roots grow and I was getting tired of the transition. She explained the gray blending process to me and even when I had 2 inches of gray next to my scalp and 3 inches of colored hair at the tips she blended the top and the bottom so nicely that the end result looks very nice. You would think that with the amount of bleach my hair would fry and be falling apart. But no. soft and healthy.

    Lynn is the best hair stylist I've ever had. I used to go to eXpression in daly city, but ever since I started going to Lynn, there's just no competition. She actually genuinely cares about your hair and wants to make sure you leave loving your own hair. My hair stylists used to tell me my hair is bad and course, but Lynn was the first person to tell me I have nice hair and made me actually appreciate the volume i have. If you ask for a certain or request something that you're unsure of, she will give her honest opinion and show examples and options of what would also look good! she knows her stuff and she knows it well I found her through my older cousin who recommended me to her and will always come back to see her even if i move away

    Lynn is absolutely the best hair stylist!! I will be recommending all of my friends and family to be going to her now on! From making the appointment to the final styling, Lynn was incredibly gracious and attentive throughout the entire process. She really listened to what I was imagining for my hair and delivered it perfectly! She explained the entire process and really made sure I would love the end product. She went into detail on how vibrant the color would be and how I should expect it to fade into over time. She clearly understands different hair types whether it's thin/thick/virgin hair/dyed hair/curly/straight/etc. She really put in the effort to make me happy. She's so nice that she even put on a baking show for me to enjoy while the dye was setting in! You won't regret going to her! 10000/10 all around!!

    I found Lynn when I lived in Burlingame, CA and she's so good I couldn't help but follow her to Palo Alto for my hair necessities. I found myself in need of a color correction (not done by Lynn) and just all around highlights. Lynn made herself available and worked with my schedule. Lynn is also a great person to talk to and makes getting your hair done so much more entertaining, I honestly don't feel the hours go by and look forward to my next appointment with her. Another plus, she uses all great products (i.e. Olaplex and Pureology). She also asks you to send her "hair goals" before she gets started and always executes. I highly recommend Lynn, you will not be disappointed!

    So glad that I found Lynn on Yelp. She did an amazing job and I'm so in love with the new color. Never been this good for the last few years! My hair is pretty dark but the platinum blonde balayage turned out to be too good to be true. My hair is still strong after going this bright

    I simply can not stress enough the importance of having a stylist who truly CARES about your hair needs. Lynn is THAT stylist! She was super considerate and walked through exactly what I was trying to achieve before letting me jump the gun. (I know little about hair and styling let alone color) She gave her professional opinion and I could not be happier with the results! We went for a 90's Cindy Crawford cut and blow out and it was better then I could ask for! Just look at that bounce. Living for my 90's girl hairdo, love it!

    Went to Lynn for a color correction and a cut. I am very pleased with the outcome. Wish I had before pictures to show you but I only took pics later that day. Would highly recommend.

    Highly recommend Lynn! She is super experienced, great at explaining the process (especially for a newbie like myself), and helped to transform my hair beautifully!!! She's super responsive, so text her and book an appointment - you won't regret it!

    Lynn is the sweetest! I always love how she does my cuts and colors my hair. You'll be leaving her salon feeling beautiful! I know I do :) She initially colored my hair 9 months ago, but it still looks flawless and grew out nicely. Here's a picture after she cut and styled it today. I love how she gave me a natural (and trendy) blend from my natural roots to a summer-y blonde. The cut is nice and texturized and I couldn't be happier with it.

    A month ago, I asked Lynn for a very blonde lived in balayage on almost black hair with some residual balayage. I knew I was asking for a lot since I wanted some strands to be nearly white blonde and ashy. Lynn explained the color may not get as light as I wanted due to my natural hair color but she will try her best! She was honest from the start and i loved that! A few hours later my hair was transformed to the beautiful light blonde/almost white color! She was so patient during the process and didn't seem rushed to fit in more clients. In addition, I loved how mellow she is and wasn't pushy to have a forced conversation. We had some laughs and overall she was amazing. Will definitely be back to see Lynn! I waited to post this because I wanted to see how the color would look with time. Even with time and many washes the color is still exactly how i wanted it!! Additionally, my hair does not feel crunchy/dry/fried after all the bleaching! Lynn is a hair superstar and has so much experience in coloring / color correcting hair. I highly recommend Lynn over many other balayage experts in the area! (And I have tried quite a few of them!) This photo doesn't do Lynn's work justice! Not visible are the mid tiered lighter section under the top layer of hair.

    Lynn is amazing. I was one of the lucky ones and was able to grab a last minute appointment before Covid took over and everything was shut down. I'm really picky about how my hair is done so I was a bit nervous going to someone new. Before starting on my hair, Lynn talked me through everything and was extremely honest and transparent about what I was able to achieve given my current color and how light we were able to go, which I appreciated so much. Her work is meticulous. You can tell she's been doing this for a long time and it shows! She listened to everything and man, I was blown away! The cherrry on top is that she's hilarious and super sweet which is great because sitting in a chair for 4+ hours can get me pretty restless but she made the process so easy and fun. We shared a lot of laughs and I LOVE MY NEW HAIR! Thanks Lynn!

    Loved my cut

    Lynn was awesome. I found her on yelp, she responded fast, was open to fitting me in, got me in and out for a last minute but very much needed haircut, i showed her a picture of the look i wanted she got me to what i needed! I appreciate your fast response, easy service, nice to chat with and friendly! Would definitely come again

    Initial blonde hair after the first session
    Lanna T.

    Lynn is an amazing colorist and I've had a great experience with her. I've never dyed my hair before, so going into this process I knew I wanted to find someone skilled and trustworthy, and it's obvious after seeing Lynn's work that she's talented in coloring hair. After contacting her, she replied within an hour and set up an appointment. On the day of, it took 4 hours for bleaching and toning, but Lynn was very hospitable and I felt cared for throughout the process. After this first session my hair was more blonde than I initially wanted (still looked bomb tho), but Lynn explained another toning session would give my desired color. I'm glad I trusted her because after the second toning I got my hair goals. Lynn is great to work with; she's extremely knowledgeable about the coloring process, promptly replies with any questions I have about hair care, and I'll definitely be seeing her again in the future (prob to go more blonde LOL). Would definitely recommend her!

I'm happy to say I think I found my new hair lady and am so glad I don't have to go to downtown sf.

I expected a simple haircut and blow-dry to be something I'd leave happy with, but unfortunately that wasn't the case. My haircut took almost 2 hours, even though my hair isn't very long or thick, and the blow-dry was basically nonexistent. What bothered me just as much was the lack of professionalism and the energy from my stylist. It honestly felt like she didn't want to be there or be around anyone. Afterward, I checked Yelp and found other reviews describing very similar experiences, including comments about her speaking negatively about clients and staff. That definitely made me question how comfortable I'd feel trusting the salon when someone like that is working there. The only good moment I had was chatting with the nice lady in the front desk and a stylist asking me about my outfit. Sweet girls with red hair, I wish I could go to them instead. Unfortunately, I won't be coming back. If you do somehow book here, definitely avoid booking with Gwyneth from social

My daughter initially said she liked the result, but later clarified she felt uncomfortable expressing dissatisfaction in the moment. I reached out to Natalie after the appointment to address the outcome. She stated that the highlights would become more noticeable over time, which has not been the case. It has now been two months, and there has been no meaningful change in the results. I attempted to follow up again but did not receive a response. Given the cost and the minimal visible improvement, this was a disappointing experience.

Sometimes things really do work out the way they're supposed to. She absolutely killed my haircut. I have curly/wavy, thick hair, and she knew exactly how to work with it - something that's hard to find. The shape, the movement, everything came out better than I imagined. Also, the vibe was amazing - super welcoming, relaxed, and just overall such a great energy the entire appointment. Grace is also genuinely so sweet, which made the whole experience even better. Safe to say Grace is officially stuck with me as a client. Highly recommend her if you're looking for someone who really knows what they're doing, actually listens, and creates an amazing overall experience.

He just wanted it shorter around the ear- how could that be misunderstood??? It was a true emergency, because there was no way I would let my child go through the humiliation of going to school the next day like that. It was really THAT bad! I started dialing and hoping some kind person would understand and help us, but who would ever take someone after 8pm, and that was IF we could get someone to answer our call at 7:50pm. That is when i called Like salon, and this angel named Tracy answered and listened to our situation. It takes a very kind person to decide to help total strangers who were asking her to stay past closing time and take a brand new client, and that is the person Tracy is. We've all had a bad haircut at least once in our lives, but this was far worse, and it would take a very experienced person to somehow salvage what was left of my child's hair, and cut it into something that looked at least like a normal haircut. We knew it would mean having to cut all the gorgeous locks off that took over a year to grow, but seriously, there was no other way. Still, Tracy was able to transform a nightmare into a dream, and while the long hair was gone, the end result was a very smart style that will grow out well. It is quite attractive, and while my child was still inconsolable over losing all that hair, what a life saver Tracy was, and I can only imagine how gorgeous my child's hair will be as we continue to see her to shape it while it grows out again. So heart warming to find a kind, empathetic human being l, and what incredible luck we had in finding her. Thank you Tracy!
