From the first call for an appointment to now, I have been warmly welcomed, and had my needs meticulously met. You may not know everyone's name, but the friendly feeling is all around you! My stylist is Lindy, she is very talented, and a super person. She has transformed my thin, aging hair to a thing of beauty. LINDY, is pure quality! The owners and the staff of stylists are competent, artistic, easy going, and respectful of each other, and their clients!. They have managed to maintain a excellent reputation for many years. They do this by continual learning the ins and outs of the products they use and sell. I'd rate their care for the clients, their clean stations, the overall look and feel of the salon, and mutual respect for each other, A+! read more

All the hairstylists are good. Fun to just watch them work. And they have FUN! Can get a little loud as everyone is laughing and chatting, but hey! you're only there a short time. read more

I've been seeing Lola for over a year now and love her. She does a good job with my cut, style and color plus she's funny and entertaining. She doesn't over charge me. Hope she's around for the duration. read more

I would say nice things about Tony but it's already hard enough to get into him. He's the hardest working businessman/stylist I've ever met. He's been making my hair look fantastic for 30 years. read more

Tania has magical powers! She made my baby-fine hair look full and bouncy WITHOUT any product. I am a client for life.

I come here to get my hair cut and colored by Pam. I absolutely love the environment. Very comfortable and everyone is super welcoming and friendly. I have very dark brown hair naturally and Pam has done a fabulous job at getting me to a perfect "bronde" without any damage to my hair and without any brassiness! I will post photos of my hair so you can see for yourself! read more

I love my experiences at Cutting Edge. All the hair stylists are wonderful, friendly, and very professional. I especially love my hair stylist Rebecca! She gives me the most beautiful coloring and awesome haircuts. She is the expert and I completely trust her opinion and advice! Thank you Rebecca for always taking great care of me and making me laugh! read more

I scheduled an appointment to get some highlights done to my hair on 8/12. Not sure name of the stylist but she had red hair. Right off the bat she began to use foul language insulting the condition of my hair, she said I "f**** it up." Whenever she spoke it was very aggressive and rude. The whole time she was cursing and making bad remarks about me and my hair condition. The whole time it seemed like she didn't want to be there, very bad attitude. She told me that she did not want to do my hair because of the box dye I had put in weeks ago. She said it would take to long and that she "Didn't have time for this today." She decided to not do it. The next day I walk into a different salon and they say it's a very easy fix, that they do it all the time, and that they would love to do it. Not sure what this ladies problem was. Will never go here again, terrible service by her. Rest of the stylists seemed to be nice and normal. read more

Writing this review for my 82 year old mom who had such a great haircut and highlights done yesterday by Hugh. She still has a dark base with just a touch of grey natural highlights ( I have way more grey than her!!!) In the past she's had problems getting highlights that turned out too orange and brassy. We took a chance not knowing anything about Hugh but knew The Cutting Edge has been around in A.G. for a very long time with a good reputation. Her hair turned out beautifully! Grateful for such a good experience. Definitely will come back again. read more

I came into the salon recently and got my haircut by Johnny. I was hoping to get a pretty basic undercut. What a terrible experience! He honestly seemed like a nice guy but really messed up my hair. He rushed through the cut. He cleaned up some of the hair around/above my ears, but left other stray patches. After I got home I realized he left one side of my hair much longer than the other and didn't even line up my side burn areas. Maybe he forgot to finish one side? Regardless the whole haircut was uneven and sloppy. I'm super disappointed. This was one of the worst haircuts I've gotten in recent years. I've been more pleased with $5 beauty school cuts. If you're looking for a good men's cut, definitely look elsewhere! read more

Holly is the absolute best. Everyone there was easygoing and polite. I was welcomed right away. I never felt out of place. Holly made the experience that much more enjoyable with conversation and energy. She listened to what I liked and didn't like. She made sure I was ok with everything before she did it. I will definitely be back. read more

Pretty and healthy looking nails done by someone who knows what they are doing is very important to me. I have been to other nail salons here on the Central Coast and no other manicurist has done a better job than Bridget. She KNOWS her stuff and does a fabulous job. She's done everything from the basic french manicure to Santa and stockings at Christmas. If you want to have the job done the right way the first time and every time, be sure to call for an appointment with Bridget! read more

I am coming in tomorrow to have my nails redone. I'm so sorry for going anywhere else. Top Nails was a nightmare, but I know Cutting Edge can pick up the pieces and make me shine again. Don't skimp on quality. Go here. Get it right the first time. Did I mention they're good? Update: I'm a regular with Angie at Cutting Edge now. The best thing is probably a genuine interest in her work as well as superior hygiene. She has great customer service and proper work. My nails have to look good in my job, but they can't look like big neon signs. My boss likes them, so I'm home free :) read more

I have been seeing FloLyn since she opened this salon, however I took a ten year break, due to finances. Coming back has been like coming home. She and her husband Tony treat everyone, clients and staff, like family. She cuts and colors my hair, and FloLyn is a magician, with a great eye for detail, style and color. When I change what I want, she always makes sure that it is flattering against my skin tone, and she always has a fun energetic vibe. I love going to this salon. I recently moved 40 miles north, but she is worth the drive, I wouldn't dream of seeing anyone else. The staff always does their best to accomodate my appointment times. The other stylists, nail techs and massage therapists seem to do wonderful work as well. I love this salon. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone. Thank you FloLyn! read more

Love love love this salon and my hair's best friend, Lindy!

I always have a great time getting my hair cut, bleached, and styled by Rebecca at the Cutting Edge Salon. She is fun and easy to talk to. If you have any questions about the process or products she can easily answer them. She does an amazing job each time, and I always receive compliments. *Tip-book your next appointment in advance because she fills up quickly! read more

I can't say enough good things about Cutting Edge. Hugh is a star. He's dedicated and passionate to his career. Lots of hair stylists out there, few can hold the reward for excellence. One day while getting my hair cut, I personally witnessed another team member literally change a lady's outlook on life, a smile I'll never forget. To have such skills to create such beauty is something to be proud of and recognized. Amazing, if given the opportunity what great things so many can offer. Thank you Hugh and to all the of Cutting Edge team of Arroyo Grande for your services, abilities, and kindness. read more

TONY IS THE BEST. I only come here to get my hair cut. It's perfect every time. Warning: he makes you bring baked goods to him if you are late or miss an appointment. read more

Pam has cut and colored my hair for almost a year. Love it every time. The salon is a friendly environment with great service.

Made an appointment and was serviced by Amy. She could not have been nicer or more helpful in my decision-making! The salon was super clean and very well-lit. The staff all seemed to get along well, chatting with each other and their customers. There is plenty of parking and it's very easy to find. I highly, highly recommend Amy in particular, and Cutting Edge overall, if you're looking for a place to get your 'do *done* :) read more

Flo is the best! My hair has never been better! The Vibe is friendly and inviting! She is not only a great hair dresser/stylist she is an awesome person! She literally does my hair perfect every time! I would give 10 stars if I could! read more

I have lived in SLO county for 4 years and tried many salons. I was recommended to Pam Morales and I FINALLY found "my" girl!! She gives a great haircut and is a good colorist!

Owner Flolyn did my hair this last weekend. I now call her "the hair whisperer"! My haie was severely gtown out and damaged. She cut and colored it beautifully. It has come back to life. I have had many positive responses. Thank you!! read more

I love getting my nails done by Angie; she is very meticulous and fashion forward! You'll love her work!!

Apparently Johnny cannt cut womens hair! Just before my 40th he hacked it. No picsfor me on this joyous occasion! Way disappointed!

This salon is just phenomenal!! ALL the stylists are very friendly and know their stuff! I've had nothing but great experiences there, and so has my family. The owners-- Tony and Flo, are the sweetest, most reliable, honest people, who run a personable & fun salon, doing great work!! Thank you guys!!! read more

Pam cut and colored my hair and it turned out great. I set another appointment and had my nails done, they turned out great and no "chop shop" cut cuticles (I hate that). Next I am going to book a massage......I love this place! Everyone is friendly and professional. You do have to book ahead but its worth the wait and planning. read more

When i moved her from LA i was uncertain that i would find a nail girl that could live up to my standards. Christine at the cutting edge has more talent and skill than any nail tech i ever went to in LA. her amazing nail art and crazy acrylic colors blow peoples minds. i don't go a day with out someone commenting on my nails. If you want something different, and super super creative go to Christine. she is the best in northern cali and the central coast. read more

I recently moved here from Washington State and knew no one. Cutting Edge was next to the post office and had good Yelp reviews so I thought I'd give it a try. I was hooked up with Angie who is a wonderfully patient, kind and highly competent nail stylist. I have seen her twice and the time and care she gives to me is unsurpassed by anyone else I have ever seen. She is also very easy to be around and takes a genuine interest in her customers. I highly recommend her. read more

I have had my hair cut by Holly Meilke numerous times, she was very professional and always seem to work me in at the last minute even though I know she would have preferred me to have had appointment. I was in a pinch with an event I was going to. Each time she really took the time to listen to what I wanted and the out come was great. I would highly recommend her to any of my friends.

I have been going to the Cutting Edge for at least 7 years now. First as a waxing client of Tammy Q, now also a hair client of Johnny M. I no longer live in the Five Cities area, but I still drive from Santa Maria to have my hair expertly done by Johnny and my brows beautifully done by Tammy. I recommend both Tammy and Johnny to anyone. Oh, and I don't want to forget Shannon at the front desk. She is always so helpful and friendly. read more

I made an appointment for a cut, color, and highlights with Pam. I let her know I wanted long layers and that I wanted the color to look great it had been a while since I had it done. She went to the back and I assumed that she was getting a book of swatches. She came back with color already mixed. This really concerned me because she had no idea how I wanted my color. Finally she got a book of swatches she didn't seem to know what she was talking about and kept saying "I've been doing hair for years." The owner was observing this the whole time. I have natural red tones in my hair that I complement with certain colors because there's no getting rid of it and Pam did not seem to understand this and was suggesting things that would not work and kept insisting she could get the red out of my hair which didn't matter at all as I didn't want it gone. I pay a lot of money to get my hair done I'm not going to sit in a chair for hours and hope and pray the woman who isn't listening to me gets it right so I left. As I left the owner had the nerve to say "her hair looks awful anything you did would have helped." I've never heard anyone speak openly about a client this way in a shop full of people. I came with my hair undone and unwashed because that's how your suppose to show up for color. I've never received such poor customer service or have been insulted at a salon. Worst experience ever. Don't come here these people do not care about your comfort or satisfaction. Revision: If you're paying $85 for the color alone you deserve to see a swatch book without any attitude. read more

If I could give less than one star, I would. I had an awful experience here. The staff here is VERY rude, with a holier-than-thou, too-cool-for-school type of attitude. If you want to call this place "cutting edge" beacuse you're tough and "edgy", I guess the place is amptly named. Hey, I am okay with tattoos and peircings, I have some myself. It's the vibe that stinks. Not welcoming, not kind, terrible customer service. And when I complained to the owner about the rude staff and stylists, she stood up for the staff. What happened to "the customer is always right" and an apology? read more
