I've been with Thy for over a decade. She's been there for me through multiple life events and…read morecountless hair transformations. I still remember what first drew me in - and what probably drew you in to read this review: endless photos of gorgeous, luscious, silky, perfectly dimensional colored hair that looked like it was done by a celebrity stylist. She's only gotten more skilled over the years, and her clientele more loyal. Thy's work always feels classy, polished, and effortlessly luxurious -- never overdone, never trendy in a way that feels temporary. There's an elegance in how she colors hair and styling that makes the final result look timeless. Not only is she an artist, but she listens carefully, takes everything you say into consideration, and also gives honest, expert advice -- including when the answer is, "No, I'm not going to bleach your whole head of hair." You can immediately tell she has a quiet, resolute dedication to delivering her best every single time, no matter how many times you've been in her chair. Thy is exceptional, and if you're lucky enough to book her, I promise you'll walk out of the salon smiling and taking a million selfies.

She was precise and also thought about how to best color my hair the way i wanted with as little damage as possible. I initially booked with her because her balayages looked amazing in photos from past clients, and I totally didn't regret it! Try and book early since she gets booked quick! Definitely coming back.

In person, Susie is patient, attentive, and takes the time to thoroughly explain any hair concern or questions you may have. I leave her salon satisfied every single time. I highly recommend Susie for any hair color your heart desires. Her skill, professionalism, and genuinely sweet personality make every visit a great experience. Be sure to check her out- you won't be disappointed.

I did an extensive research using AI and came upon this establishment. I called last week and was able to schedule an appointment the following week (Tuesday at 10am !!!)) I didn't know what to expect since I've never gotten a perm before but the hair stylist was Yoko and she was so kind and patient. She helped getting me situated where we discussed what type of perm I wanted. She shampooed my hair and that off the bat was so relaxing and set the tone of my experience. We had a great conversations as she prepared my hair - while doing the perm I was given some nice Korean coffee and was asked if I was comfortable while the perm was setting it. Yoko provided me Instructions on how to maintain the perm and also provided me products to help maintain my hair. My months of growing my hair out and finally getting my first perm experience was fantastic. I'll becoming back in 6weeks for my touch ups. Yoko really took care of me and I enjoyed the experience!!!

After my bestie had been going to esther for 7 years i jumped on the curly hair bandwagon last year…read moreand here i am for perm #2. the last year has been fun styling the first perm she gave and i loved it as it grew in and i even got two trims throughout the year. i love that my hair is allowed to have digital perm (hair-health wise) & it doesn't smell bad! after my appointment i came straight to work and this is the shot after esther styled it! in the after care i'll avoid getting it wet for 2 days and the hardest part is not touching it! but i flip my hair so i'll just try to keep it in ringlet twirls as much as possible! one thing different from my first perm was that my hair was much longer prior to this appt today, and still it sprang up! it's still long so i'm glad i grew it, and looking forward to styling this do once the 48 hr no wash time passes! highly recommend esther even with her wait list!! you can upkeep with deep conditioning your hair while looking forward to the appt (like i did!) the 3 hour appt was enjoyable, she is personable and so knowledgeable, in fact the appt was over earlier than i expected, a total timely professional! thank you esther!

I love that is super low maintenance and it just makes me feel confident with my hair style. Esther is very good at what she does. The 2-3 month wait list speaks for itself. She doesn't like to take any new clients without an initial consultation. This way she saves you time. She is very honest about if the digital perm will be a good fit for your hair type or not. I am 100% satisfied with my experience!

You may have changed your process since my appt but I'm truthful with my experience.

Deborah did an amazing job getting the brassiness out of my hair and got it blonder than anyone has…read moreever been able to! I had about 5 appointments with a high end colorist in SF that never got it anywhere close to what I wanted! Everyone told me it wasn't possible but Deborah did it on the first appointment. I've been growing out my natural gray but I still have a lot of brown so I'm mostly trying to go for a cool toned bright blonde/white so it blends more with my roots as they grow out so I can go longer between appointments. I don't want my hair to look like a natural gray, I still want it to have a pop and feel current. Deborah was honest about what would work in our video consultation, as well as with pricing upfront. She also told me how to take care of it moving forward and what is need to do at home to maintain the cool tone. It look a long time (about 7-8 hours) but she is extremely precise and detailed at her work and it clearly shows. Thank you, Deborah!

Winnie has been our family's hairstylist for over 10 years, and at this point she's honestly part…read moreof the family. My husband, my son, my daughter, and I all go to her -- and that alone probably says everything. What makes Winnie special is that she doesn't just cut hair. She really understands people. She pays attention to your face shape, hair texture, lifestyle, and the overall look you're trying to achieve. Every time I want a change, she somehow knows exactly how to make my hair look fresher, softer, and younger without trying too hard. She also takes the time to teach me how to style it at home so I can actually maintain the look myself. My teenagers completely trust her, which is honestly rare. My daughter is extremely picky about her hair and normally hates letting anyone touch it, but she fully trusts Winnie. My son always goes to her when he wants a new style or needs to look sharp for special events. Before prom, Winnie did an amazing job -- not just with his hair, but helping him put together a polished overall look and giving him styling advice that boosted his confidence so much. Winnie is talented, patient, stylish, and genuinely cares about her clients. You never feel rushed with her, and she always wants you to leave looking and feeling your best. Only downside? She's very popular, so book ahead :)

It took me about 5 different failed hair salon experiences until I finally stumbled upon Esharp and…read moreI've never looked elsewhere since. I was looking for a salon to go to when I first moved here from NYC 7 years ago. I'm very particular about my hair and need to visit every 5 weeks to maintain the same bob that I want. ESharp is run by one stylist so it's a fairly small place, but let me tell you, it's a very tightly run place. all the staff here are super nice, professional, consistent, and thorough. I've probably visited here more than 70+ times by now, and I have NEVER left this place unsatisfied. I always get compliments on my perfect bob. The owner/stylist is the best in town and is someone who has a lot of passion towards his profession, which I so respect! The only downside is that since it's a very small place (with A LOT of regular customers) it can be tough to make last minute appointments, but they've instituted an online booking system so I always just plan my next visit in advance. All in all, I'm super happy that I have such an amazing hair stylist that I can always go to in my neighborhood!
