Thank you Tatyana for my beautiful layered cut! I called in the morning and left a message. I got a quick call back and was given an appointment for the same day at the exact time I asked for! I have really thick hair and I like it layered and thinned out. It takes a long time to do that right. Tatyana had great attention to detail, talked to me about styling options for my new cut, and made me feel beautiful. I will definitely be back. Thanks CHIQUIS! read more

I've been going to Anel for my hair color and cuts for years. She does my highlights and trims, and I've never been disappointed. Her color techniques are amazing,she's truly an artist with hair. She really listens to what you want and offers great advice, which is perfect if you're unsure or a little indecisive like I often am. I always leave feeling refreshed and looking like a new person. I highly recommend her and honestly don't want anyone else to ever touch my hair. She's that good! I'd follow her to the grave! read more

I give 0 to this Salon, they ruin my hair, so don't go there, I ask to blend my 70% salt &pepper hair so it can be easy transition, and I really don't know what she did, she did highlights and color the rest of the hair with grey, so everything turn out worse than what I had! I'm so mad! Now my hair is red, orange and yellow, not blond or white or grey! You can see in the photo she took with filter and how my hair was and how it looks now read more

I took my daughter in today for her Teen Cut. Natalia was fantastic! She's young and cool-looking, which made a great impression on my daughter, and they talked and laughed the whole time. Natalia gave advice on coloring and what would work, what the upkeep is like, and what would be too damaging. My daughter has super thick hair and Natalia carefully cut and blew it out smooth, then finished with some curl. It looks beautiful. The salon is clean and airy, location is convenient, cost is very reasonable. This is definitely our new place. read more

Natalie did my hair. She's super nice, & gave my hair a thorough wash & nice straight hair style. However, horrible cut. I came in with just above waist length, very thick, coarse wavy natural hair. Ends were pretty dry and needed a trim. I loved my long hair. I told Natalie specifically I wanted to clear the dead ends & I do not want layers. I know I said this very clearly because I have always made it clear for a long time to stylists that I need to keep my length & my thick hair does not look good in layers. & I have not been disappointed with a cut since like forever until now! She said ok and that she understood. However, i ended up with a cut that has 3 different lengths (LAYERS) with the shortest length being shoulder length to the point I can no longer put my hair in a bun or a clip without it sticking out like crazy! What I do recall her doing during the haircut was getting sections of my hair without parting straight to the point it seemed like sloppy cutting. To add, the shortest length is a huge difference from the longest length! Like I really don't understand why she chose to give me this cut when I specifically told her not to give me layers. Is this a default method for newer stylists? Because it's absolutely not professional. This is an extreme difficulty for me in the morning getting ready for work now. I did not notice the cut when I left because she styled my hair stick straight. Now I am forced to waste more money and buy supplements to try to regrow my hair back fast & with the massive inconvenience of not being able to put my hair in a real bun, let alone hideous LAYERS & my beautiful length is now gone! I'm beyond pissed. Don't get your hair done by Natalie if you want to keep your length. Spending over $80 plus a 20% tip should get you a professional cut, and especially what you ask for. Not an amateur cut that is completely offensive & the opposite of what you had asked for. read more

WONDERFUL, WONDERFUL experience from initial call to haircut. Lovely chat with Chiquis, a welcoming feeling of home. Honest feedback about what would go best with my face shape. Super clean place and the decor is super chic. Coming back to try color and nails!! My new go-to spot! Also, my daughter got a haircut from Natalie at the end of January 2025. Noticing that someone wrote a low review. Incredulous, as we had the complete OPPOSITE experience!! My daughter's hair was GORGEOUS! Literally the best haircut (modern, precise) she's had in her 19 years of life. Natalie, my daughter will be seeing you again in April!! No way we're going anywhere else, so I hope you're here to stayyyyy! :) read more

I had an appointment at 12pm with Anel that I made a few days prior. About 15-20 minutes before my appointment, I received a call that she cannot see me at the scheduled time because the person before me had so much hair that she is running over. What if I had been on my way there already? They asked to re-schedule at 1pm, but I have work and had specifically planned to do this over my lunch break. This happens to be an important hair cut that I needed before I left on a business trip so I have a lot going on in the days prior. The person said they would call me back to see if we can make anything else work, but I never received any phone call follow-up. Just be warned that they could cancel or change your appointment very last minute because there was no pre-planning or anticipation beforehand. I can't say I would recommend or would go back because there's no guarantees they wouldn't do the same in the future. read more

Went in for long overdue haircuts with my teen daughter and Natalie was fantastic! She really listened to my daughter, which we appreciated.

I've been looking for a salon that specializes in cutting wavy hair that can be worn either wavy or straight, that is closer to my home then my previous salon. I don't know what took me so long to try Chiquis as I've been hearing great things about it for years! Chiqui did such an amazing job cutting my hair exactly the way I wanted it. Now let me move on to her niece Natalie who did my color. Natalie is the true definition of an ARTIST! She mixed 5 colors to achieve the PERFECT fall auburn that I was going for! Her technique & professional eye was the best I've ever experienced. Plus, she had the most gentle touch I've ever felt! Needless to say, I will DEFINITELY be seeing Chiqui & Natalie from now on!! read more

I went in for a consultation with Natalie. She was very thorough and assuring . 80% of my hair was virgin while the remainder was colored with Madison reed over 6 months ago. Keeping that in mind, she came up with some options to give me highlights and a little base color specifically over my grey hair. We decided to do partial highlights and base color in very specific areas. Since I could only do weekends, I got an appointment for 6 weeks later. At that time I was still debating on the color between gold brown or chocolate -hazelnut. They both are very closely related colors and can be very hard to perceive and so I was struggling with making the decision. Up until my appointment, I sent Natalie several pictures and she always responded and helped me decipher the tones. On the day of, , first of all she helped me find a parking spot and saved my car from getting towed. Once on the chair, we went over the options again and decided to go with partial highlights with chocolate hazelnut tone. She was very thoughtful and gentle through out the process. After the wash and dry, the color was more gold than I'd wanted. While still very pretty highlights, Natalie didn't make any excuses and was apologetic and offered to retone it free of charge if I could not live with it . The color turned out very pretty and she styled it very well. So i decided to keep it and left happy from there. Got many compliments at work but I still decided to get it retoned and reached out to Natalie. She accommodated me right away and this time she got the color perfectly right. The color looks beautiful and even after 5 washes, the color looks vibrant and my hair looks great. The picture below doesn't do complete justice but I really like it the way it looks styled or not. So happy with my results and highly recommend Natalie. read more

This review is for Chiquis and Natalia. My daughter got a haircut by Chiquis. When I told Chiquis that my daughter wanted the "wolf haircut" she knew exactly what that was. Chiquis took the time to talk to us and explain how she was going to cut her hair. Along the way she was giving my daughter tips on how to style her hair. Chiquis was knowledgeable and very sweet. I recommend her for kids and teen cuts! Natalie cut my hair and did a great job. I have long hair and she was precise with how much hair I asked her to cut. My hair feels and looks healthier. I was impressed with her work and will be coming back for highlights. Check her out on Instagram under: hairbynatgiselle. read more

My reason for visiting this salon is Anel. I've been going to Anel for over 10 years, and she never disappoints! She listens to what you want and works with you to get your desired look the healthiest way possible while maintaining the integrity of your hair. Anel asks questions to learn your hair history to ensure the optimum cut/ color. She is very knowledgeable for color corrections and knows how to mix colors to provide the richest look possible. She is the best! read more

If i could leave 6 stars I would! I've gotten my hair done by Natalie for a while now, I am a pretty indecisive client but she has been able to achieve everything I've asked for and more! I really like how she's very realistic about what we can achieve in a session to do what's best for my hairs heath, she explains everything about the process and the reason why some things work better for my type of hair then others. 10/10 would recommend! The shop in general is gorgeous and everyone there is super sweet :) read more

Wow after trying many other places over the years I found my colorist! Natalie was amazing, very detailed oriented, knowledgeable and professional. She did what I asked for but even better as her work was so well executed. Overall it was a really great experience. I will be going back! read more

I had the pleasure of getting my hair cut by Ms. Natalie! I'm so protective of my long hair and have had some unpleasant experiences in salons and couldn't find a place I liked but decided to give Chiquis a shot. I'm so glad I did, Natalie took me in so last minute and I trusted her to do a big chop on my long damage hair. I'm so picky with how I expect my hair to be handled and very possessive of it. Natalie heard every concern I had and did her magic on my hair and it already feels so healthy again. I watched her cut my hair so meticulously she seems to be a perfectionist which I love. She even gave me some solutions to do at home to protect not only my hair but she even gave suggestions on how to take care of my husbands curly hair haha. Not only is she talented but she seems to love her job and is such a great people person , I talked about too much random stuff and she still had something to talk about in response. I finally found my stylist and salon to go to thank you Natalie read more

Robert has been my barber for just over 2 years now and within that time we've tried out many different styles and he's helped me color my hair in ways I never thought possible. His creativity and skill has really put my at ease when it comes to my hair. I've lived in the Bay Area now for about 5 years and before I found Robert, I had gone from salon to salon looking for someone that I could go to for my big changes and simple haircuts with mixed results. Not only is he great with the clippers and color, but he can give you the knowledge needed to buy the right product to maintain the style you prefer. Thank you for getting me out of my shell, and for taking such good care of my curls! So happy I'm rocking my favorite color, yellow!!! (Photos to come) read more

Last week I had the pleasure of getting my hair cut by Chiquis herself! There was a last minute cancelation and she was able to give me a much needed haircut. She added layers, cut my hair to the length I wanted, and recut my side bangs. Throughout my visit she showed her knowledge and passion for doing hair and I am grateful for the experience I had. Last year not long after moving to the area I got a horrible haircut at a different salon and I walked around with lopsided hair for months- safe to say I was hesitant to get it cut anywhere in this area again. Chiquis has gotten rid of my fear and restored my confidence. I highly recommend this place because it is rare to have such an amazing experience in all areas a customer looks for. Everyone makes you feel welcomed, clearly love what they do, and are very good at it. read more

I was recommended here by my friend Veronica & I am so happy I decided to chose this place to do my hair! I have curly hair, and previously had someone cut my hair incorrectly. I was apprehensive for a long time going back to a salon. Chiquis was quick to fit me in when I called with Natalie Padilla (@hairbynatgiselle on IG). Natalie was super sweet & took the time to really explain to me what she was doing & why. I'm so happy with my hair! Will definitely be back. read more

Natalie is amazing. She has a very good understanding of what color and cut will look good on you. I am loving my hair and am glad that I trusted her with my first hair color. She is also a very sweet person and will patiently listen to you and what you want. read more

I have been going to Chiquis Hair Design for over 20 years! Recently a new stylist started named Natalie. She has done my hair color the last two times and just did my daughters cut. She is amazing! My color looks perfect and my daughter adores her cut. Natalie went above and beyond to make her happy and even did a conditioning treatment and curls at the end. If you need a new stylist I would highly recommend her! read more

I really want to let everyone know how amazing Lana is... she had done my balayage years ago and it was so good. I literally tracked her down and of course she did not disappoint. I have bark brown hair and have had so many terrible experiences with red and orange coming through. Lana works her magic and it's never even an issue. She makes it seem so effortless b/c she is SOOOOO good but I know how hard it is to balayage dark hair. She is so talented and so kind. I cannot recommend her more! She also cut my hair for the first time and I love it. Thank you Lana. You are AMAZING GIRL and SOOOOOOOO TALENTED. read more

Definitely a great experience! Alex does fabulous makeup! Alex did my makeup for my bridal shower & wedding I looked great. Alex did my makeup perfect I loved it & got many compliments.

Bonus she styled my little ones hair very cute. read more
