    Review of Stephanie Dahm: Growing up, I only went to regular salons. where everyone has straight blonde hair. they'd do a blow out and blow dry it straight pulling out my curls as if curly hair was somehow not as presentable or pretty as straight hair is. i'd always leave with a smile and then cry in the car. this was my first time getting a haircut at a curly salon. all of the customers looked like me. it was refreshing. all of the stylists are knowledgeable on how to treat curly hair even if they don't have it themselves. stephanie taught me how to wash my hair properly. how much product to use for my hair. how to diffuse it. how to sleep on it. how to refresh my curls in the morning. the whole nine yards. if you've never had a curly haircut before or are curious to her technique, basically she cuts it dry first. snips off the dead. she detoxed my scalp from gunk and build up. washed it. diffused it and cut it when it was damp. now if you're used to going to "regular salons", you know how they pull each piece of hair away from your face really tight and snip? they don't do that here. they cut your hair as it lays. they don't yank out your curls. and better yet, you leave with the beautiful curls you walked in with, not some blown out mess that stylists believe is what salon quality hair should look like. while stephanie doesn't seem to have too many reviews, i'm here to be another positive one. you get what you pay for. there's a reason the salon down the street from you is $65. she was kind, funny, professional, and took her time perfecting every little curl on my head. 5/5

    pintura highlights by Shay :) AFTER: a couple hours after leaving the salon

    This was my first time visiting a curly salon. My hair was black and felt like my curls weren't being "seen". This was my first time having any kind of highlights on my black hair so I was a bit nervous. I wanted a pop of color but not super damaging to my curls like traditional highlights w/foil. So, the pintura highlights were perfect option for me. Shay did a beautiful job! (see before & after pic) I'm so happy that I found a stylist like Shay who understood my hair and took her time doing the curly styling process and styled section by section (like I've seen on IG!). Who doesn't want juicy curls? Additionally, Shay was nice and friendly :) Side Note: When I went, it was just Shay and I in the salon that day and no one else. I ended up returning a couple weeks later to have a section of my hair fixed. Leading up to this, I had spoken w/Debbie on the phone and she was so kind and understanding. Additionally, Shay wanted to make sure I was happy w/my hair as well, so I went back to get it fixed. When I walked in the 2nd time, all of the stylists looked at me and then went back to their work. None of them greeted me or acknowledged me as I stood there. I felt very unwelcomed by them as I scanned the room for Shay. BUT THEN I saw her coming from the back area and was so happy to see her!!! I liked it much more back there anyways bc we were in our own room away from the others. When I'm due for my next haircut, I'll be sure to book with Shay :)

    Both my mom & I came here to see Joseph (Joe) & ABSOLUTELY LOVED our experience. He is beyond talented, we would both highly recommend anyone to go & see him.

    Went to #BFH2T for the first time today! I had a highlight, color and cut with Jo Jabsi and just love it. Jo is this larger than life character. He has years of experience, loves what he does and it shows. And, honestly, the title hair "stylist" doesn't cut it. More like hair artist! I've been told in the past that my hair is not easy to deal with. Lots of gray, straight in some areas and wavy in others. We had a brief consultation when I first came in, but he definitely had a vision so I just let him roll with it. Nothing about my hair seemed to be a challenge for him in any way whatsoever. And, he didn't cut off more than he said he would which I really appreciated! He also speaks 8 languages (in case you are looking for someone that speaks your language) and is knowledgeable about giving you the right haircut for your face shape. The highlights were beautiful too...see the close-up photo so you can fully appreciate how talented he is! And, did I mention he has a private room? Pretty cool not to have to yell over multiple blow dryers and such. About the salon itself, it was clean and organized, and the other stylists made me feel welcome. The waiting area was cozy and pretty, and I felt really comfortable there. But, I didn't feel so comfortable in the dryer chair! I kept sinking into it. A bolster pillow would be awesome, and maybe a stool to put your feet on. Other than that, it was a nice experience. I'd recommend giving Jo a try!

    Jo did an amazing job on both me and my daughters hair. He scheduled us together so we only had to make one trip. My daughter got full highlights with trim and I had color, highlights and a cut. Jo has so much knowledge on all hair types. He took the time to explain and educate my daughter on how to improve the condition of her hair and keeping her curls looking bouncy and refreshed. He also really knows how to style hair. I never leave the salon liking how it's styled but this time I loved it and he did it all with no product which allowed it to stay beautifully styled for 3 days. I have received so many compliments on my hair and for once my daughter is happy with her color. Thank you Jo!

    Debbie did such an amazing job on my curls! I came in for a haircut and some layers and I was not disappointed. I got the session that included lessons and felt so much more educated about my curls. She walked me through every step of the process and explained to me the best ways to care for and manage my hair type all while providing excellent customer service. This salon does a great job at following Covid-19 guidelines by asking clients to sanitize their hands and social-distancing whenever possible. The salon itself was very clean and has such a nice vibe inside with the decor and all the friendliness surrounding the place. You can even buy the same products that the stylists used on your hair. Overall, excellent customer service, amazing results, and left my hair feeling hydrated and defined. A little expensive but definitely worth the money. Great experience, will definitely return. :)

    We came here for my 12 year old daughter. She has VERY curly hair, and if you have curly hair, you know how scary it can be to get your hair cut! She had a very bad experience someplace else, and has been very hesitant to get her hair done again. We have had an AMAZING experience here. Through each process, each step was explained to her, and even told her how to style her hair. All I wanted was for my baby girl to be happy with her hair, and we have finally achieved that! We finally achieved this. I cannot even explain how happy we are here! THANK YOU BFH2T!

    The before.  This was 2 weeks prior.  Owner continued to argue with me her stylist only took 2".

    I will start this by saying, 1/2 way through and I was sobbing in the bathroom. I have been here before and got a decent cut. Booked for the family on Vagaro to freshen us up before Christmas. I asked for just a trim, with a few long layers just in front. The stylist and I talked about 1 to 1.5". She seemed to take unusually small sections of hair at a time, but I thought...hey...maybe she's just super precise!! When she pulled my back hair to the front I saw things were wrong. I told her she had cut my hair much shorter than I asked?!? She said she was very sorry. When she started cutting it just "came off". To clarify, this wasn't that my hair was damaged and fell off...but somehow apparently the scissors were possessed and had a mind of their own. She also informed me then once the damage was done, oh by the way... I am a very new stylist. I tried to keep my composure but could feel the emotions bubbling up. Excused myself to the bathroom and the tears started flowing. I loved my long hair. I had went on a full color detox for over 18 months to get it in good shape...but now it was gone. My hair texture is such that if I don't have enough weight with length, it becomes very triangular. I came out of the bathroom and walked to the owner sniveling into my tissue and explained what happened. She took me right away while her 3 clients sat, and finished the cut to avoid any more problems. She was very sympathetic and understood why I was so upset saying she too had a similar experience. Why this is 1 Star vs a 2 or 3 is because what happened next. While finishing up the cut the owner repeatedly tried to convince me the stylist only took 2". I kept pointing to where my hair was and explaining it had to be at least 4" (this is through my tears as I still was crying). In the end I hated my hair, and being cursed with slow hair growth... I knew this mistake would take at least a year before my hair is reasonably long again. I went home and busted out the measuring tape and over 5" was gone. No one can mistake that for a trim!! We have since called several times and emailed and not once have they retuned a call. $28 for the cut doesn't cover the cost of the extensions I had to buy to fix my hair until it grows back out and it's deplorable they aren't stepping up to right this accordingly.

    I booked an appointment with Joe Jabsi he was on time and he send me a reminder and a confirmation.He was very professional and when i comes to his talent and knowledge in mixing the colors he is the best .Highly recommend him

    I went in with blond hair and dark roots in need of my hair to return to blond. 4 hours later, I had medium ash blond with dark roots. Not what I wanted. I did not ask for ash and definitely wanted my roots to be blonde. Definitely won't go back.

    Scheduled my child for her first curly cut. She is satisfied. They made it an amazing experience for her and showed her ways to style her curls. It was pricey but worth every penny. Her curls have bounced back and she is all smiles.

    Debbie did a wonderful job fitting my daughters and I in for haircuts today. Stephanie gave my two girls beautiful cuts, and Debbie worked miracles on my curly hair. I can't believe how she revived my curls. I recommend 1000%!

She recommended k18 hair treatments to help with my damaged hair after seeing another stylist and it's completely transformed my hair back to health.

The haircut and style I got was so far off from the pictures I provided. I showed various pictures( front, side, and back) to give Briana a good idea of what I wanted to achieve. My 17 year old daughter's only comment (who recently got her hair cut from another local stylist in Livermore, got a beautiful cut and style) is that it's just bad and walked away. I have had plenty of horrible experiences and haircuts before so it's safe to assume I was anxious about trying this new salon. Once again, lesson learned, go to your trusted salon and stylist. DO NOT RELY ON RATINGS ALONE. I've already made an appointment with my trusted hair stylist in Fremont to fix my hair. I'm willing to drive further out to see her after this sad experience! In response to Varina's review: You had a different experience than I did and it's great that you love your results. But, you had a different hairstylist. And as the owner of the salon, I expected Briana to deliver and she fell short of that. I couldn't wear my hair straight because the cut was uneven; I had no choice but to curl it to hide the imperfections. You cannot deny that my hair looks nothing like the pictures I showed Briana. Would I be willing to risk sitting there again to have her "fix" it when she couldn't deliver the haircut I wanted in the first place? So, while I appreciate your feedback, the pictures speak for themselves. I did call the salon and also left a voicemail on Brianna's cell phone explaining my issue and disappointment, so she was aware of it before I wrote this review.

The last time I got my hair cut, I went to a random person at Ulta because I was in a rush and getting out of town the next day and just needed a quick cut. As we started chatting, I quickly found out that this stylist had recently broke up with her bf - and she was wildly talking about the drama. Each chop of the scissors represented her hatred for that man - she ruined my hair like she was Edward scissor hands! It's been over 6 months since I've had my haircut due to needing to let it grow out. Needless to say I was nervous to have a new person style my hair again, but I've recently moved to California and needed a new stylist anyway. Kate listened to what happened last time (because as she looked at my hair she could tell how choppy and uneven the previous stylist had left my hair). She also listened to what I wanted in regards to color and did her best to execute it. When it came time to trim my hair, she was very quiet and concentrated on what she was doing - which I totally appreciate after the past trauma of the crazy drama stylist! I'm totally happy with how the partial color and trim turned out and will definitely return. Thank you, Kate!
