I always go to Dana for my haircuts! She's very friendly and hard working, and I've been going to her for years. Free parking in the small plaza where the store is located. Good to call ahead for any appointment. read more

Great attitude and services. Only went there for the hair wash at first but kept on returning for event prepping and hair dye due to their chill vibe. You could tell that they honestly care about how the color turns out for the customers comparing to some barbers around the Bay Area that'll just do whatever you told them without telling you honestly how it would look. read more

Coco and Dana are seriously the best! After a past hair disaster where a stylist burned off way too much of my hair, I was super nervous about trusting anyone again. But Coco and Dana totally changed that. They're not only amazing at what they do, but they also really listen and make sure I feel comfortable every step of the way! Coco always does the best job in making sure the service I ask for is delivered the best way possible! I definitely recommend Dana's Hair Design read more

This is one of the best hair salons I've ever visited. I came in wanting a change, and the stylist provided great advice on the best color for my hair.

I'll definitely be returning for more services. read more

Dana really did a crappy job tapering in the back. The only good thing is back hair grows fast so I should be able to fix it in 2 weeks. My advice is if you are going to use her for the first time, make sure to bring pictures of the haircut you want to avoid a bad haircut. read more

So glad this place is close to my house! I go here for hair color, hair trim and other services whenever I can. My hair is really dark and Coco has been doing a great job matching my hair with the color that I want when I request it to be lighter. She's also great at informing you with what's involved for high maintenance vs. low maintenance hair. Definitely my go-to hair. read more

Sooo cute, I got exactly what I asked for! Dana was super nice and coco was very professional and knew exactly what she was doing. Her pricing is pretty fair and reasonable! I went for a free consultation and asked for the pricing and she charged for the same at the end! The process took around 4 hours, quick and efficient! Highly recommend it!! read more

I've been coming here for years and really loved this salon and has been my go to for my kids hair needs. Dana has been very helpful and kind. I would call and be seen the same day however recently I called and had an appointment I came in and was asked to wait which is understandable for 15-20 minutes but this time she decided to work on a customer that walked in after us because his hair cut will be faster than mine. The man kept insisting it's ok he is not in a rush and can wait after as he does not have an appointment she kept insisting to see him first. She later explained to me that my daughters haircut was longer in duration and didn't want the other customer to wait. I guess she doesn't understand people make an appointment for a reason and to have more respect for people's time. Especially with kids on a school night trying to avoid long wait and crowds by making an appointment. Needless to say I found a different place for my service. read more

First of all, just to let you know, I am a very picky girl. Everything I do or buy, it takes me days to think and research lol. I want the best! And for my hair, it is the same. I had a very hard time to look for a good hair stylist. I tried a few and didn't have good experiences. I wasn't happy with the result at all, due to the wrong color expectation. I wanted my hair to be silver/ash/gray, but I could never got the correct color as I wanted. Plus, it caused my hair super damaged from the bleach :(. I almost lost faith in it; for almost 2 years, I did not go to any salon to touch up or dye my hair. I just wanted to grow it long, keep it natural color and nourish it healthier until next time. BUT, I found COCO. I saw her picture on Facebook, it looked so appealing - the hair color she's done with looked so pretty and smooth, that I decided to give it a try with her. I am glad that I did. So now I can say, "Finally, I found the one (haha) who is good at this." She transformed my hair from a brassy damaged ugly hair into a beautiful silver blonde healthy look hair; just exactly as what I wanted. After the section, I was like, "Oh wow, I finally got a silver blonde hair that I have been wanting; and my hair feels so soft now. What has she done to my hair :D" I was impressed! My mom likes it too. when I got home, my mom saw my hair and really liked it. She said she wants to do her hair @Coco next time lol. I think we got hooked haha. Anyways, I am very happy with Coco's work and I would 100% recommend her to everyone who wants to fix your hair or color it. Any color you like?! Tell her, she'll make it right and make you happy. I promise! :) Thanks Coco! I'll definitely come back! read more

Dana's Hair Design - How Dana did my prom hair during my senior year of high school! (May 2018) - Hair Salons Near Me - San Jose, California

Well.. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL!..I called in to make an appointment and Dana asked me to come in 30 min later. Then I got in 10 min late then I saw her already with another customer. However because of my tardiness, I patiently waited for another 15-20 min. I even told her to take her time since I knew that I was late. While waiting, she came in and asked me if I only wanted to do a haircut and no color or wash. I said yes because I already washed my hair. While cutting my hair, I agreed that my hair was an oily type, but she did not have to keep commenting on it. Especially, one thing that upset me was that when I asked how to prevent my hair from getting too oily, she immediately showed me her fingers and pushed them closer to my noses and asked me to smell her fingers. Then she saw I was wearing my mask and she started lowering my mask and kept pushing her fingers closer to my noses and asked me to smell it again. She told me that she will have to go wash her hands thoroughly after cutting my hair because of the oil she got from my hair. That was unprofessional and was rude of her. I have been to other salons. They also commented on my oily scalp but they have never acted that way. Then she wanted to push me into buying the shampoo product that she had by saying that this would work very well in reducing my oil on my scalp. She then moved on and told me that the end of my hair was too dry. She told me to come back next time so she could apply " Keratin" to help smoothen it out. In the end, when I asked how much was the shampoo, she told me $30 which I wanted to try it out so I bought it, and the told price was $65 dollars including the tip. I was okay with that because I wanted to help her out since it has been rough for everyone last year. But the one thing that made me decide to write a review was because of her attitude toward me. I felt very offensive and I thought she did that to me because I did not want to do any other services she offered like coloring or hair washing. I gave two stars because she actually did spend time cutting my hair, but only two stars because her professionalism could have been better and she should not have treated me that way. I think I will go to other nicer salon where people would treat me professionally and respectfully. read more

BE CAREFUL WITH SCAM IN BILLING! I've been here twice and the three-star rating is for my hair and nails done. However, I'd give one star for the owner's attitude as she always ends up with the higher (shady) calculation of her jobs. Since the customers already have their hair/nails done, they can't do anything but paying the bill. For example: I did ask her beforehand how much for the hair perm (short hair), including trimming afterwards; she said $65. Gel toenails was $35. But at the end she charged: $65 for hair perm plus $30 for hair trimming (the time she spent on trimming was very quicky), and extra $30 for the rolls curling - this is ridiculous as rolling is one required step during the perming process. She also elevated the toenails gel coloring from $35 to $40! The overcharged amount could be anywhere from $15 to $45, $45 (depending on how your dressing level-casual or elegant- and personality (humble, aggressive..). I was about to report this scam to the Customer Protection Unit, District Attorney of Santa Clara County. However, I gave the owner a chance to improve her honesty by warning her. read more

This review is late... I'm not good at writing them but I'll try my best because Dana is a fantastic hairstylist. She really cares for her customers and wants to help them achieve their dream look. Dana and her sister Coco always take care of my mom and I when we come in. I've never once been disappointed by her ability to transform a person. First things first, she is taking strict COVID precautions when it comes to appointments. Yes, appointments. Please call ahead and make sure she can accommodate for what you want to do at her salon. She is very sanitary in her work place and makes sure all measures are taken. Lastly, my hair. I loved it! Dana really listens to you and advises what would be the best way to treat your hair. She is honest so don't take any offense if she tells you she can't do something. I have really thick hair, and she always wants to make sure whatever I want is what she'll be able to create. My most recent appointment was the standard cut and color. I got a few inches trimmed off and dyed my quarantine faded hair. Dana and Coco honestly helped me achieve the hairstyle of my dreams. It's copper if anyone is wandering! Enjoy the selfies I couldn't help myself from taking. read more

I love Dana and her sister, they're so nice I always get my hair cut here, although I only come every other 3 months cause my hair grows so slow, it's always a pleasant visit every time. I walk in and I'm always welcomed, although I recommend calling to see if they are busy which I always do just to be sure. Prices are definitely competitive here, I recommend trying them out. Today I'm here for a manicure and a pedicure The manicure is for the acrylic powder to be removed to nurse my nails back to normalcy from all the acrylics powder I've put my nails through over the years. The pedicure, is cause of my laziness in doing my toe nails, hahaha.... I can't complain $15 dollars for pedicure I say heck yes!!!! Try them out I've known Dana for years, she's very good and nice same goes for her crew. read more

Waited a couple of weeks because I wanted to be completely sure I was happy... and I am! First went in about a month ago for a consultation. A lot of places just do a cursory examination and either give a flat response or very vague answers, but not Dana. She really took the time to look at my hair, talk about what I wanted, and even took a lock to test it out. Coco did the majority of the actual work on my hair. She was also very careful and didn't rush, even though the process was long and tedious. She did a wonderful job and even offered a lot of good advice to me for how to treat/maintain it myself afterwards. read more

Doesn't know how to do hair cut, I asked for a simple layer cut and Dana just trimmed the hair slightly and didn't show any interest in fixing it...extremely disappointed as even after mentioning several times that I was looking forward for the hair cut she had no interest nor it was less of expensive.. do not go if you are looking for a good hair cut. read more

Dana and her staff are great. Very accommodating and very professional. We have been customers for years.

I have to say the only reason why I came to this salon is because Mao does an excellent job with pedicures. I called Dana and made an appointment for 5:30pm-6pm the day before. The day of my appointment, I get off work call her and let her know i'm on the way for my appointment, she says Okay...Then a few minutes later she texts me stating to come in at 6:30pm!? While i'm on the freeway from Fremont area driving to her salon. Be more mindful and courteous especially of your clients time. Very upset that she disregarded my appointment. You have lost a loyal customer. I will miss Mao! read more

Thanks Coco for this beautiful color...it hard to tell in pictures, but this color is Rose Gold. Omg, im in love with it. Coco spent so much time and effort on my hair, bleach 3 times to able apply this. Love, just love. Also thanks Dana for my hair cut. This hair salon is my go to place every single time. Highly recommend for everyone read more

Wow, Dana - you did it again! Thanks for saving me from myself! I have naturally very dark hair. I went to Dana last spring, wanting to bleach it blonde. She counseled me against it, and talked me into trying highlights first. She did a great job, but after a couple of months, I still wanted to go platinum blonde. Since Dana was against it, I decided to do-it-myself at home. I got the platinum blonde hair that I wanted, but the maintenance to keep my roots from being nearly black absolutely fried my hair. After about five months, I was totally sick of blonde and my hair was totally dying from all the dyeing. I decided I wanted to try being a redhead next. I called up Dana and made an appointment for 5pm on a Wednesday. Dana assessed the damage. I could see that my hair was breaking, and Dana pointed out that some of the worst damage was close to the roots (that I had been bleaching repeatedly for maintenance). She told me that my hair was so damaged that it probably wouldn't absorb a new color, but agreed to give it a try. The first round of red (that I had picked for myself) didn't fully take, and the roots of my hair were more pink than red. Ironically, the the ends/back were much healthier and took the color nicely. Dana knew that I wanted to keep the length, so she trimmed some of the more damaged hair, and gave it another try with a semi-permanent color that would be more likely to work. It did work better, but my roots still did not match the longer hair due to the damage. I told Dana to go ahead and cut it as short as necessary to get rid of as much of the damaged hair as possible. Dana tried and tried to save as much length of my hair as possible. (My hair was very long, down to about the middle of my back). She worked on my hair for several hours (way past her usual closing time at 7pm). I knew she wasn't going to let me walk out looking bad, and I felt so guilty that I hadn't listened to her advice in the first place. Slowly, she trimmed off more and more of the damaged ends. There were portions where my hair had just broken off, and she had to try to make it all into some kind of style. . . I have to admit that as she was working, I was worried about how it was going to turn out. When she finished (at 9pm - two hours after her usual closing time), my hair looked amazing! I had an incredibly cute, incredibly hip pixie cut - that I would never have expected would be possible from where we had started. Dana didn't charge me anything extra for the hair cut or dye, even though she'd had to dye my hair twice and had cut it about three or four times - and worked on me non-stop for four hours! (I did give her a big tip to show my thanks!) The next day at work, everyone was RAVING about how wonderful my hair looked. One woman asked me for my stylists' information - she couldn't believe that I'd only paid $15 for my haircut, but was hugely disappointed that Dana is in San Jose (since I work in SF). Even my husband, who generally doesn't like short hair on women, loves my hair! Dana and I laugh that now that my hair is short she sees me all the time because I have to go in every 2-3 weeks to keep the style. Of course, the semi-permanent red didn't last. I followed it up with black, which looks even better with this haircut. Thanks to Dana my hair is healthy and stylish again. read more

We've done many color combos since and I always leave thinking it's my favorite one yet!! She is truly an artist!! I also take my daughter to Coco. She talks to my daughter about what she wants!
