Wow! Delightful with my daughter's first color treatment. It was assuring to communicate with Stephanie via text prior to the appt. I knew she was in capable hands. Very happy with the results. My daughter felt like this was the best present ever. read more

Chromatic Theory - Honey caramel for a tween. - Hair Stylists Near Me - Fremont, California

Stephanie was wonderful! It's hard to find a colorist who also cut hair well, and I'm glad I found her on Yelp! She was very personable, and gave great tips on how to maintain my hair so it can be as healthy as much as possible! The balyage she gave me was beautiful! I got my cross between smoky grey and ash brown, and she gave me cute wispy bangs! Will definitely come back! read more

Everyone comes to this place! It's like the sweetest hair oasis nested in Fremont. I had no idea there's such cool place in my neighborhood m. Stephanie is so meticulous and studious about how to make your hair beautiful and tidy. No judgement. She also gives amazing, stylish men's haircuts. read more

Stephanie is the best! I was recommended to her and I am so glad I went :) she is super kind and approachable. She does a short consultation/conversation of what you want before every service to make sure you're both on the same page. When I asked for adjustments, she was more than willing to help out and make the adjustments in a timely matter. I definitely recommend her :) read more

Stephanie is AMAZING! I have been going to her for years and can say that she is the best at what she does! And for someone as young as she is to go out and become the CEO of her own company speaks volumes about her! What I love most about her is that she is knowledgeable about various types of hair, color, and is up to date with hair trends. She is all about healthy hair and won't do anything that will lead to breaking or damaged hair. All of my cousins and best friends go to her because she takes so much care into what she does. I've never met another stylist that listens to how I want my hair and then makes it even better. She is extremely talented! Also, the products that she uses and recommends are never a disappointment and I always return for more or re-stock at my following appointments. Do yourself a favor, if you are looking for a trustworthy, experienced, nurturing and knowledgeable stylist then I HIGHLY RECOMMEND her! read more

Chromatic Theory - Ash Blonde Balayage - Hair Stylists Near Me - Fremont, California

Booked a balayage/ombre appointment with Stephanie for the first time today, and I'm certain that this will not be the last! Stephanie was amazing, so friendly and open to discussing what color/style I wanted for my hair. I was able to show her some inspo photos and talk it over before starting the process. It was reassuring to know that she was experienced and knew what she was talking about. Loved that she strived for smooth transitioning of color and no brassiness for my hair! She even recommended affordable products to use after my hair appointment to help maintain the quality/color. My appointment took about 3 hours, but it felt like time went by faster. The vibe of her studio and the music playing also helped make the experience more relaxing! Overall, super satisfied with how it turned out & would recommend checking her out! :-) read more

OMG STEPHANIE is seriously THE BEST!! My sister recommended coming here and let me tell you, there are like, zero good and reliable hair salons in Fremont! All the good ones in SJ charge an arm and a leg with 6+ months of waiting before the next available appointment. Luckily, Stephanie only had a 3 month wait (which seemed reasonable given it's still Covid). My last hair dresser turned my dream of a mushroom ash brown into just black lol so I was trying to go back to the light side. Stephanie told me she went through the same thing and knew exactly what I wanted and how to achieve it. She gave me a balayage mushroom ash brown just as I imagined!! I've never been so happy before with a hair coloring job! She was so sweet and gave me so much information on hair care! Her prices are affordable for the quality that comes from it! I will be seeing her in the next year to go through my next lightening session. THANK YOU AGAIN SO MUCH STEPHANIE!! =') read more

Chromatic Theory - Mushroom Ash Brown Balayage - Hair Stylists Near Me - Fremont, California

This review is long overdue. I have been seeing Stephanie for my hair for over a year now. When I started going to her my hair was so damaged. She has treated my hair and it's now more healthier than ever. In my most recent appointment with her we did a color change. I'm still getting complemented to this day like it was just done. Bottom line is she's great her technique is amazing and flawless and her professionalism and friendliness are great examples of why her customer service meets high expectations! read more

If you're doubting making an appointment, hopefully this can help you make your decision. Stephanie IS AWESOME! She just started her own salon inside Sola Salons so come check her out. She listens to what you want and really makes an effort to ensure your happiness. I have thick Asian hair and she knows exactly how to thin it out and make it manageable. Other hair stylists will leave it either too layered that it's awkward or too thick that it looks too heavy. Hair color: On point! She's super honest with you and will make sure your hair color will turn out exactly as you want. It's definitely helpful if you come in with a picture. My hair was super brassy when I came in. After my appointment, I got an Ash balayage. Easy maintenance and Stephanie will tell you exactly what you need to keep it. Big plus, she sells Kevin Murphy products! Appointment making: Super easy and quick replies. Text friendly and convenient! Do it and you won't regret. read more

I have been coming to Stephanie for almost two years now and I must say I love her work. I was so sad when I heard that she left the salon she was with but thankfully she opened up her own place. I'm so happy for Stephanie for having her own cute spot in Fremont. Stephanie's work is always amazing. She knows exactly what her clients want. Anyways long story short Stephanie will never disappoint. I show her a picture of what I want and I get exactly that if not even better. Don't let her long awaited calendar slots push you away (there's a reason for that) she's that good. I'm currently pregnant and I'm so happy I was able to book something with her. So what are you waiting for? Book yourself an appointment to see her. Her prices is also very reasonable. read more

I absolutely love Stephanie! She's super kind, creative, and professional. I often don't know the specific details of what I want for my color or cut, and she does such a great job throwing ideas on the table for me. I trust her judgement 100% and I know I'll always walk out of her salon looking amazing!! She's also super attentive and remembers that I love vegan hair care, so she always recommends the best products to help maintain my color. I can't wait until her salon opens back up again so I can get my color refreshed! read more

Very unprofessional. She kept cancelling my bookings without notifying me and was not responsive to my messages. I was very polite and courteous.. wish she did the same. She seems like a great hair stylist but needs to work on professionalism and customer service. read more

Chromatic Theory - Hair Stylists Near Me - Fremont, California

I. Love. Stephanie!!! I'm new to the Bay Area and found Stephanie on Instagram about 6 months after I moved and after a horrific experience with another hair stylist in the Bay Area. Before that, I lived on the east coast for a couple years and struggled to find a hair stylist that I could be loyal to (my last stylist in SoCal set the standards high!). Needless to say, it was seriously a bad few years for my hair lol. My first appt with Stephanie was back in January and now it's August and I've just seen her for a third time this past weekend. I am obsessed! Her work is so amazing. On top of that, she is so personable and our appointments are like catch up seshes with an old friend. For as long as I'll be in the Bay Area, Stephanie will ALWAYS be my go to. read more

BEST!! I followed Stephanie all the way from her previous salon and I am seriously so impressed. She makes the entire experience extremely comfortable. I started with baby highlights and she was able to get me to a full silver blonde. Trust the process! This can not be done in 1 visit! Stephanie's goal is to make sure you end up with amazing looking HEALTHY hair. Forever coming back! read more

Chromatic Theory - Hair Stylists Near Me - Fremont, California

Stephanie is amazing! She's personable, professional and so easy to work with. As soon as I stepped through the doors, she made me feel at ease right away. I've been box dying my hair for as long as I can remember so I was nervous about getting my hair professionally colored. I avoided going for so long mainly because of the negative stigma attached to box dying. Stephanie never once made me feel bad or guilty about it. She listened to what I was looking for and was able to achieve the color I wanted. Not only am I ABSOLUTELY in love with my hair, but it also fits my low maintenance lifestyle. If you're looking for someone who will go above and beyond, Steph is your girl. You will not regret it! read more

Stephanie is amazing. She know what she is doing and will not sell you anything she think you don't need. I originally went for a toner service. She saw my hair and told me that i don't really need it. We ended up just had a hair cut. I would definitely come back again for a fall color service! read more

Stephanie is great. She listens to what you want and makes it look good. She's definitely not one of those pretentious stylists that shames you for using cheap prioducts or for not knowing the process of coloring hair. She explains things to you instead and recommends but never pushes products. Chromatic theory is a place she just opened on her own and I salute her for it. She going to do great things. Glad to know her . read more

Stephanie is Amazing, there are not enough good things to say about her. From doing Brazilian blowout to color or cut. She does it all brilliantly. She is very honest and does her job from her heart. And on top of all that she is also Hijabi friendly (women with headscarf) I love her!! read more

I've been going to Stephanie for years and she never loses her touch when it comes to my hair. She listens to exactly what you want and executes. I drive an hour and a half just to see her every couple of months. Nothing short of amazing! Thanks Steph! read more

I have been with Steph for 2 + years now and I love her. She always know what I want and listens to my needs. She never disappoints. She will make sure you are happy and if you are not she will fix it. She is not like other stylists just after your money and will up-charge you or charge you again to come back to fix a color. Steph is very responsive and will respond when she is not with customers and answer any questions you may have. She's awesome and I recommend her. read more

I saw Stephanie for the first time about a month ago and her work was truly amazing! She listened to what I wanted and made it happen better than I had imagined. Her cut and color was perfect and I most definitely will be going only to her from here on out! read more

Thank you so much Stephanie, I'm loving my hair cut! Will definitely come back for another service!!

I've been going to Stephanie since I can remember. She's the best in town and she has never let me down. She's professional and quick to respond. I was always so scared to cut my hair short, but I trusted her skills and she made me feel so confident with this new look of mine! Thank you so much Stephanie! read more

My daughter recommended that I make an appointment with Stephanie since she does her hair & I was looking for a new stylist for my cuts & color. I am glad I followed through. Upon making my appointment, it was easy to book. When I finally met Stephanie, she was very nice & welcoming. It was refreshing to be able to bounce ideas off of each other since I wasn't sure about the color & cut I wanted since I was in need of something new. She made sure it was something that would suit my face shape, skin tone, etc. I can't wait for my next appointment with her! read more

Stephanie is very patient and will take her time explaining exactly what she is going to do with your hair. I had really blotchy color and she was able to correct that and add dimension to my hair. She also cut my hair into clean layers. I came to the salon with dry and uneven hair, but she was able to bring my hair back to life. I really recommend her and will not let anyone else do my hair. read more

Once you find someone good, you follow them! I've been going to Stephanie for almost two years and she has never failed me. I always feel good when leaving the salon. She is very friendly and honest so you can achieve the look you're going for. If you need help looking for someone trustworthy and who can make your hair look bomb every time, look no further! Thank you so much Stephanie read more

Stephine is awesome..very friendly and you can let her know what exact style one wants even ask for her suggestion as well . She will make you feel comfortable and beautiful. Just go there she knows her job. read more

Stephanie did an amazing balayage on me. I came in not sure really what I wanted and she helped me decide what color I wanted to do that would still show color but still be a little natural looking. She takes her time to make sure your hair turns out like it should. It was my first time at Chromatic Theory and I definitely recommend people go here. read more

I've been going to Stephanie for years! So happy to hear she finally opened up her own studio. I usually get a basic haircut from her since I really want to stay on the natural look. She has done a balayage for me a couple years ago and I was completely satisfied with it. She also teaches you how to maintain your hair color as long as possible before you have to see her again lol. My next session with her i'm planning on doing a Brazilian blowout which she recommended since I want to keep my natural curly hair look without the frizz. read more
