I booked Kati to do my hair for my WEDDING…read more Bottom line - She did a FANTASTIC job. I HIGHLY recommend Kati. My review only speaks to her services for wedding day hair - I'm not local so I'm not familiar with her salon. Here's my experience with independent hair stylists GENERALLY - they're kind of flaky. If you're trying to book an individual stylist for a special occasion, such as a WEDDING, it's sort of a crap shoot whether or not your phone call gets returned (or your email gets answered). I have a theory that there's little overlap between the qualities that make a good stylist and the qualities that make a good business person (who returns calls and emails promptly). My trial run with Kati was great. I appreciate how she constantly checks to see if things are going in the right direction. She listens and really tries to pinpoint the look you're after, rather than assuming you want the "it" style of the moment. Before she started, Kati did say something about my hair being "hard to work with" - this was in response to my comment that my first trial with another stylist hadn't gone well. Another reviewer mentioned that Kati said something similar, and she (the reviewer) interpreted the comment as "uppity". That reviewer was Latina, I'm Asian. Maybe Kati isn't used to minority hair? I don't know. I don't think Kati is uppity AT ALL. If anything, I think maybe she's trying to control expectations or something. Seems like an expression of nerves. Which you should ignore, because Kati is better than she thinks she is. (Note to Kati - Brides want to book a stylist who inspires confidence. From now on, I strongly feel you should say, "No hair is hard for Kati S. to work with.") I digress. So following my trial, I did have moments when I didn't get a timely response to my emails to Kati. At one point I may have emailed my MUA to make sure I had the right info. Turns out she was moving salons, and swamped, blah, blah, blah. With savvy business people, clients would never know this stuff, but again, see comment above re: hair stylists vs. business people. Cut to - Day of the wedding. HERE'S WHAT MATTERS: Kati was early. Kati had done her homework. I made some changes to the style I requested and she created something that was PERFECT. I call it HAIR ART. I will post pics when I get them. Did I mention she's also really cute and adorable? I'm not saying you should book your hair stylist because she's cute, but she's going to show up in some of your wedding photos - and looking cute don't hurt. Oh yeah, all my bridesmaids looked fantastic too. So did my mom. But seriously, would that have mattered if MY hair looked crappy? No. Good thing it looked amazing.

I expected that the extensions had more hair because they were so expensive. She made me pay the money in advance so I had no choice but to take the extensions . They also fell out 2 days later. Also because the stylist was working on 2 people at once - me and another lady , the blonde that she touched up on my hair was fried. :( - this is a very traumatic experience for me - I definitely didn't get any sympathy from the owner over this entire experience- just another customer :,(

NOBODY Cuts Hair Like Micki!…read more Micki is a hidden gem in Encinitas! She works alone in her funky little storefront on 101, using her genius to give the best cut to my thick, wavy, curly hair that I have ever had. I went to the best salons in NYC and never found a stylist who understands and loves my hair the way Micki does. NOBODY cuts hair like Micki! She has a real gift and a procedure that is hers alone. I admired the way my friend's hair was growing into a beautiful, wavy mane around her face. It set off her features so well and looked so healthy, light, and natural. This was about a year ago, and that's when I first went to Micki. I have bounced from stylist to stylist and had just about given up, since they all cut against my hair's natural wave and curl, and a cut that looked OK in the chair looked butchered after two weeks. The cool thing about Micki is that she pays no attention to current trends and images out in the media. She gives your head of hair the cut IT wants. If you're OK with that and relax and trust her, you will be wonderfully taken care of. If you want to look like some celebrity, she may tell you, "No, I'm sorry. Your hair doesn't want to do that!" Yes, it may seem she cares more about your hair than about your ego! But the irony is, you go with her cut, and your ego will FINALLY have the boost it's always wanted! She really brings out beauty and femininity (or handsomeness and masculinity, as she does cut men's hair, too). It's not about edgy, trendy, chopped, harsh, or unnatural cuts. It's about looking wonderful. Micki is mature, a natural beauty, a native of Encinitas--a beachy, breezy, sweet, conversational lady with a great smile and big blues eyes that discern a lot of what's wrong in a mistreated head of hair. She should be in Beverly Hills (she used to be in La Jolla, but got sick of the pressure) and has the training to do it if she wanted to. Thank goodness she doesn't want to! I just go on and on because I have never spent anything like a year with one stylist, and my dearest hope is that she'll never leave!! Especially you men and women out there with curly, wavy hair--do yourself a favor!
