    I had to go on an unexpected last minute trip, and my gray roots were showing horrifically. Ashley came to my rescue (again!) and made me a to-go kit, with instructions because she knows me! . Thank you Ashley!

    If I could give 6 stars I would! I have been searching for a salon in the Del Mar area as my long-time stylist is in Moreno Valley. After searching/reading/getting quotes, I finally found Ashley! First time appointment and I cannot believe how she NAILED IT! It's like my hair back in college (37+ years ago!) I felt relaxed, pampered, and refreshed after my appointment and had a smile from ear to ear! What a sweetheart! I'll be back (and back and back). Thank you for today - and for making me feel the way I way I do right now! Heart emoji! Check out the before/after!

    Ive been coming to Vixen Beauty Lounge for 3 years now and love this place even more! Ashley Barragan understands my hair and always gives me exactly what I want and more. When I arrive they instantly cater to me. Her assistant makes me a cappuccino and Claire's cookie. I never have to wait! Her place is so beautiful and everyone is so nice and welcoming. It's always a treat to get my hair done. While waiting for my hair to process she puts a wonderful warm lavender neck pillow Her products are from Italy and very safe too. Lastly...She always offers great incentive deals to her clients.

    And after

    Ask the Community - Certified Vixen

    Can you give me a ballpark on haircut and color?

    Hi Deborah, I’d love to give you a quote. What type of color will you want to book?

    What is the typical cost for a partial lowlight(no add ons)?

    The cost is between 165 and 205 depending on how much foiling is required :)

    I had my hair cut by Alex Shorman a few weeks ago, and I love my new hair! I didn't have any idea…read morewhat I needed to happen because I had a lot of dry broken ends, it feels thin, and I was worried about losing my length and how to get my hair healthy again. She listened to all of my concerns and recommended a shampoo/conditioner to strengthen my hair, gave me a cut that made my hair look and feel healthy and full, and does not require a ton of upkeep. I've worn it three different ways now, and it is just the perfect cut for me. The salon was great, it feels upscale but unpretentious. Other stylists felt free to chat or weigh in on what hair decisions we were making, just very friendly and comfortable like I'd been going there for years. I highly recommend this salon. Ask for Alex!

Alexandra consulted with me to make sure that I was comfortable with what she was doing as I told her that I do not normally wear makeup. I attended the wedding and felt comfortable the whole time because I never felt that my makeup was overdone. I also ended up getting a blowout which allowed me to relax before getting dressed instead of doing my hair on my own. The salon has very good energy. I'm so happy that I picked this salon! Thank you, Alexandra!

    I was looking for a stylist who really knows how to cut long layers, and after hearing such great…read morethings about Kortnie, I decided to trust her with my hair, especially since it had been a long time since my last cut. From the very beginning, we shared a few laughs, and she gave the most incredible head massage. It set such a relaxing, positive tone for the entire experience, and I already felt so cared for before we even started the cut. As soon as she began working on my hair, I could tell I was in amazing hands. The techniques she used showed such skill and intention--I could actually see the vision coming together, which gave me so much confidence and trust in her. That meant a lot to me. When she asked to style my hair at the end, I was genuinely impressed by how much she cared about every detail. I absolutely loved how my hair turned out, and I felt so good walking out of the salon. Beyond her talent, I'm truly grateful for how comfortable and welcomed she made me feel. The conversation flowed so naturally, and the whole atmosphere was warm and inviting. As a first-time client, that meant everything to me. You can also tell she uses high-quality products, which I really appreciate. Kortnie truly went above and beyond with my haircut. She took the time to really listen to what I wanted, then elevated it into something even better than I imagined. She was incredibly thoughtful and detail-oriented, making sure the length was exactly right to bring everything together perfectly. I felt like she genuinely cared about getting it just right for me. On top of all that, she's kind, warm, and a true professional. I'm honestly so thankful I found her. If you're looking for someone who not only knows hair but truly listens and cares about your experience, Kortnie is absolutely the person to go to. Thank you so much, Kortnie! See you in a few months.

    Everything about this place makes my heart smile, sincerely. I moved to San Diego about 3 years…read moreago and have tried many hairstylists. (I must preface this next part that I have family members who are in the industry, but just live too far for me to return to on a regular basis) Many of the stylists I tried were, non responsive, way overpriced and not very educated in their field. I tried to use yelp to find the best and many would not even return my calls. Fast forward to this past week. I thought I would give yelp one last ditch effort and chose to call Capsyl. It was a Wednesday evening- after closing time, so I did not expect a call back until the next day. It wasn't even 5 minutes later that my phone rang and I spoke with Kelly. She told me that Rebecca just received a cancellation and could get me in on Friday morning. To say I was stunned is an understatement. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed. Once in Rebecca's chair, I could tell she "got me". She listened to my ideas, looked at the photos I brought in and chatted with me about her thoughts. Then she got straight to work. She was easy to talk to, we had a few laughs and she gave an AMAZING head massage. Once she started cutting my hair, I knew she knew her stuff. I could tell the techniques she was using were creating the look I was going for. She styled my hair and I really loved it. (I very rarely like how stylists do my hair after a cut and color) Her prices are very reasonable and the conversation is great. I'm so grateful to have found this little gem that is nestled up on Flower Hill. :)

I'd been blonde for quite some time and I was ready to go back to my natural brunette color and get it back to a healthy state. My first visit was with Michael who gave me the best haircut I'd had in years! I wanted to keep my hair long with layers, a U-shaped cut and long curtain bangs. The result made me feel like a little bombshell. LOL! The second time I returned was when I decided to ditch my patchy blonde to go back to brunette, and I saw Donnie. We talked about my hair goals and about the process it would take for me to get there. He was clear and transparent about the journey. He is also super personable and fun to chat with. Ive seen him twice now, and will be returning at the end of this month. I love that this salon offers refreshments, and really good ones! The salon is clean and aesthetically pleasing. There are also some good eats around the area especially if you have an extended appointment and get hungry.
