Michele is amazing!!! She's the sweetest person you'll ever meet. I originally saw her work on my…read morefriend and was instantly convinced to go to her cause i couldn't even tell she had extensions on. I'm from San Francisco but i didn't mind the drive to Monterey at all! that's how amazing she is. Booking a consultation / appointment was super easy on her website. During the consultation she color matched my hair perfectly and I was in and out in about 25 mins! Came back literally about a week later and had the hair installed. During the whole process she made sure i was comfortable and she's soooo sweet to talk to! Not awkward at all. My hairs a little past shoulder length and we went for mermaid hair so about 20-22 inches. I addressed some concerns on some blonde bands from my previous bleach job and she did an AMAZING job covering that and blending it to my extensions. She also trimmed them so that it'll melt right into my hair. She also made sure that even if i tied up my hair you wouldn't be able to see the extensions. I thought the extensions would feel super heavy but they're honestly really lightweight even with 6 packs of hair in my head I can say a million good things about her but just take a look at my before and after

I didn't have a "negative" service at this salon but it was "mediocre" at best, especially for the…read morecost. This salon is easily $100-$125 more expensive just because of the area it's in, keep that in mind. Overall, I would give my hair a 6 out of 10 and my experience a 4 out of 10. I got a partial "balayage" and hair cut, and at this point I know that some salons don't do actual hair painting, it's basically sporadically placed color, and while the color itself is fine, I don't anticipate this growing out as well as it has other times I've gotten my hair done - I can tell because I've been getting my hair done for 20+ years at this point so that's a little unfortunate. But aside from this, I would have appreciated if she let me know she was charging me for more color - other salons haven't done this as often, but they do let me know when they do. Even with full "balayage" at other places, I haven't always been charged for more color so this was unexpected. Even if she just gave me a heads up though, I would have appreciated it. The haircut was very basic and simple even though I asked for long layers. The blow dry was also "okay" - I ended up going home and adding more volume into it myself. Most importantly though - the stylist was not engaging at all. I'm a new customer, she didn't ask anything about me. Made no effort to put in conversation with me. It is so unlike any experience I've had at a hair salon. I even asked her questions to get the ball rolling and there was barely anything back. 3-4 hours in a salon chair is a long time for such lack of conversation, it's very disappointing. Like I said - my experience wasn't "bad" or "horrible" but I am not going back and I would not recommend the salon.

I wanted to love my experience with Jenna at Evolve, especially for a $100 blowout before an…read moreimportant life event, but it honestly felt very cold and rushed. I mentioned I was getting ready for a special occasion and there was basically no conversation, energy, or effort to make the experience feel enjoyable or personalized. The styling itself also felt underwhelming. I was told my hair probably wouldn't hold, and only a very light amount of hairspray/product was used. Unfortunately, I left feeling like I could have achieved the same result at home myself. At this price point, I expected more attention to detail, warmth, and overall service.

Thank you Alchemist Hair Studio and thank you Megan Nicole (@hair.by.Megan.Nicole) for being…read moreprofessional, showing expertise in all aspects of hair knowledge and creativity, and most of all... being kind. Megan and the Alchemist family has shown nothing but love, while also keeping everything informative and realistic when it came to my hair extension experience. As a cancer survivor, a stay at home mother, and a mommy on multiple medications they looked for me and let me know of the pros, cons, and how they would help my on my hair journey. I am here to say, I am loving the 24in extensions the lovely Megan has given me. It has improved my confidence and I feel like a brand new person y'all! Thank you Alchemist Hair Salon and thank you Megan. You brought back my confidence.

I had been a returning client of Alchemist Hair Studio and previously saw another stylist there who…read moredid my blonde successfully for over a year and serviced my hair overall since April 2025, but she moved, so I booked with Khammy. During my consultation, I explained that I wanted to maintain the cohesive blonde I already had, bring the same neutral tone underneath, and bring the blonde closer to my root. At first, with my hair freshly blown out, I thought something looked a little off but assumed I was just adjusting to the blonde being higher. Once I got home, looked more closely, and later washed and styled it myself, I could see the actual result: patchy, non-cohesive color with warm and cool tones throughout that did not blend together. It honestly looked more like an at-home color job than a professional salon service. When I initially reached out to Khammy, I was upfront that I did not want her doing my hair again based on how it turned out compared with what we had discussed. I had previously told her I planned to return for a haircut since there had not been enough time to do both services that day, so I wanted to be transparent about why I would not be coming back. I also contacted the salon separately through Instagram asking whether another stylist could correct my color and provided clear photos. I did not initially ask for a refund because I respected the time spent and product used. I then went days without a response from Khammy, and when she did respond, she repeatedly said she needed time to "process" the situation. The salon's Instagram never responded at all. Instead, I was blocked from their Booksy booking platform while their social media account continued actively posting. I ultimately decided to have my hair corrected elsewhere at my own expense. That is when I requested a refund. Khammy then pushed for a FaceTime or in-person appointment despite the documentation I had already provided. I declined and said I wanted to keep communication in writing. After I declined the FaceTime, Khammy maintained that the color looked fine, attributed the result to the state of my hair, and then said the photos I provided were "heavily filtered" and at that point, all she saw was me trying to "get free service" out of her. The photos I provided were Live Photos of my actual hair. I found those accusations insulting and unnecessary. Her response only reinforced why I did not want her working on my hair again. The blonde I was asking for had been achieved successfully on my hair before. If she felt during our consultation that the condition of my hair, the time available, or her ability to achieve what I wanted would be an issue, I would have preferred that she decline the appointment. I genuinely tried to be reasonable throughout this process, but the dismissive communication, lack of professionalism, and accusations made an already disappointing service significantly worse. I have the full history of the communication, including where there was no response, and I'm attaching before (with the wine glass) and after of my hair so people can see the result for themselves.

I scheduled an appointment with Darlene 3 weeks in advance. 6 days before the appointment there is an email saying she has tested positive for Covid a while ago. Didn't think too much of it because the appointment is 2.5 weeks after first testing positive. 1.5 days before the appointment she cancelled it and said reschedule. No, thank you. The kicker is Darlene is still coming in to the studio the day of my appointment but for another client? It seems as a new client I was brushed off which is unfortunate.
