This review is for Roxanne. I bought a Groupon to get my hair, dyed, cute and styled with her and I'm so glad I did! She went above and beyond what I was expecting. My hair was long and not very healthy looking and she brought it back to life! My hair now feels and looks soft. Not to mention that she's very friendly but professional at the same time. I will definitely be back. Thank you Roxanne for making feel beautiful! read more

De Soto Salon & Spa - Thank you Roxanne for making my hair look amazing! - Day Spas Near Me - Ventura, California

I'm only giving them a 4 star because of Sergio's politeness and attentiveness when he saw me in the lobby. As well as his diligence in getting someone to help me with my waxing, when one person was already busy with someone else. I am also being specific because I think this woman is a terrible associate or waxing person. #1: She began by asking if I'd been there before (I said no) #2: she then started telling me in a nonchalant voice about my eyebrows and how unlike they were, how low one was and how bad the other was #she then proceeded to wax them after I told her what I wanted (as full as possible and well marked all around). #3: As she was waxing she was telling me (nothing else) that my eyebrows, in her own words, mixed in pretty badly to my hairline. (Ohk then?) I'd never had anyone talk about how bad my eyebrows are and nothing else. LOL. Being who I am, I was not hurt by it, but I was annoyed at how unprofessional she was and what image she was giving the salon. Granted, I would not want someone like that working my salon. After the first shot, she said ok there you go. And I looked and had to tell her to finish the middle as she rebuttled, "that's what I mean your eyebrow is in and the other is way out." I was in the twilight zone. I had to tell her. Do you know how to wax eyebrows? You align them with the tip of my eye. So this one needs to be waxed more to align and this one you can leave it alone. She continued with "oh. I'm not done, I'm just showing you what is wrong with them there." I tried and harmonize by saying. They look good on the outside that is good thank you. Yes. Can you finish the inside and I still have some hairs here in the middle too. She said no you dont. I took them off. I rebuttled." I can see them right here. Could you please take them off. " After all the mentoring I did for her and tolerance of her unprofessionalism and treatment. She proceeded to wax diagonally into the top of my last eyebrow, when she only needed to wax straight up. Leaving my eyebrow bare and now looking very different from the other one (from the inside). Jeezus. I payed her got my change and ran off, but before I ran away from there I said thank you to her and then said "thank you Sergio" as I passed by Sergio. I would never go to her again. The reason I'm writing this is so that owner takes it into consideration. Maybe it's because I'm Mexican the reason she was so comfortable to say those things? or maybe it's for an unknown reason, but even without the behavior... I ask, Does she know what she is doing? - Beware. I do not know her name. I rather not anyway but hope Sergio knows who I am referring to. I was a walk-in TODAY. read more

De Soto Salon & Spa - Too late- I asked her not2take anymore as I felt the wax on Dwrong place. she said"ok" & of course that's because she was ALREADY DONE - Day Spas Near Me - Ventura, California

Karla is the woman to go to for cuts and especially colored. She saved my hair from a bleaching disaster. Color corrected and left it healthier than when I first walked in. I come to her regularly now, she's experienced and affordable for the amazing service provided. :) read more

I absolutely love Kim you can not only see her love as an esthetician but her love for people. She always is having consideration what is best for her clients. I have been coming to her for years for both her facials and I used to get my brows done (before I started doing thermolysis). My skin always feels so soft and dewy after my facials. I feel so confident with how my face looks. My inner beauty reflects my outer beauty! Thanks Kim! read more

After class at Oxnard College my sister and I decided to have dinner. Then we met Andy at I Love Pho (Vietnamese) food. I got to talking and explained to him I was new to the area from Santa Barbara, and how I was in need of a new hair stylist. Bam. Andy responds, " I specialize in long haired women!" And it's all history from there. Come see him that's all I have to say. He's 25 years in the hair industry and knows how to make a women look and feel beautiful. Thank you again Andy for the awesome honey blonde highlights and fabulous haircut. Feeling so blessed to have stumbled upon you. God Bless you and your business. read more

Got some Groupons so I could treat my sister to a day from afar for her birthday (we're in different states). Called to see if they could get her in for a same-day and also accept the Groupon, which Roxanne did! She was super friendly handling the transaction between the two of us. My sister LOVES her cut and curl and feels like a million bucks! Thanks, Roxanne for making sure my sis had a great birthday! read more

Can't say enough about Liza Medina! She is the best for color and style. Everyone is so friendly and knowing of fashion and style. It's one big happy family. Perfectly located in Down town Ventura over looking the beach. Perfect walking distance from a perfect night out after being pampered. Prices are amazing for the attention they give you, and style tips. Let Liza know Jessica sent you. read more

The only reason I go there is because of Liza M. She's been doing my hair for 5 years now, and she was recommended to me after i went to the mall and "someone" (no salon names) raped my hair with scissors. She's very very friendly and fixed it in no time. Going there is such a treat! Also exceptionable prices! read more

Best decision ever to make an appointment with Roxanne. The salon itself if very comfortable and inviting. Roxanne is a perfect stylist- she is sweet and friendly and easy to talk to, and her styling skills are out of this world. She gave my hair the perfect color and cut I wanted without me even being able to explain it! I will be back! read more

I had a facial done with Kim Martinez and it was amazing! Kim was great at explaining all the products she was using and making sure I was comfortable! Her room was very relaxing with a great ambiance! I will definitely go back to have another facial done :) read more

Roxanne is the girl! You doing an amazing job with my hair is an understatement!!!! When I walked in last Saturday with my overall dried /fried /processed hair and I told you what I wanted and you did just that! Thank you for upgrading my hair from looking died to alive. My hair feels amazing! My boyfriend, family and friends loved it the color, the feel and the super cute do. I loved my high ponytail you did for me with my clip on extensions. I felt to cute, sassy and sexy; such a relaxing experience. Thank for the awesome conversation! I will see you very soon! I'll be taken my boyfriend's mom to see you too, she loved my hair! You are super talented and such a beautiful soul! The service I got was Haircut with Chemical Service, Olaplex with Chemical Service, Single Color Process, Styling! read more

I have been going to the Desoto Salon since Armando opened it. Armando is one of the most unique people I have met. He does wonderful color and beautiful cuts. He possesses a fantastic sense of humor and is a true to the core positive person. It is a great place to go and wouldn't go anywhere else. When my friends come from out of town they go get their hair styled by Armando. Highest recommendation! read more

Love this place, Andy is my favorite!! The champagne while you wait is so nice and my hair has never looked and felt better than this!!!

Andy is AMAZING, I have very hard to manage curly,dull, dry hair, but after my visit with Andy it's so soft and silky ,the high lights and color brought life back into my hair :) his shampoo with head, neck massage was so relaxing I was one happy camper :) Andy really pampers you was even offered a drink. Truly amazed read more

Andy gave me the best haircut ro date! I continue to be impressed. His schedule is so flexuble & accomodates me all the time. I love his talent & so will you read more

Used my Groupon for Olaplex, cut, dry & style with Roxanne. She was very friendly, knew exactly what I was vaguely trying to communicate as far as style and gave me a fantastic cut that brought my hair back to life. The Olaplex made my hair shiny and silky, the cut made my already colored hair look multidimensional and sparkling. I am very satisfied with the results. read more

I LOVE Heather!!! She makes your hair look and feel great! I always get compliments right after my haircut about how good and healthy my hair looks! She is great at communicating and reminding you of your appointments. Love her. Oh and the salon looks pretty cool, too! read more

Sergio is a really sweet guy but I just wasn't so happy about the outcome of my hair! He was doing my hair and another clients hair simultaneously and he didn't pay much attention to mine! I think he even put her hair color on my hair and now I have a streak of black going down the back of my head which looks so weird! I feel like he did take out the brassy orange out and made it a more ashy color but it looks so dry at the tips, keep in mind before he started on my hair I asked for a trim and he never trimmed my hair which made my ends look even worse. He didn't even style my hair right, he actually burnt my hair as he tried curling it.. great guy but I will not be coming back. read more

I went to Lizette (also called Liz) a while back for a bikini wax. She did a great job with my super sensitive skin, & made me feel comfortable. The whole salon has a great feel. I can't way to go back to her for a facial! :) I definitly reccomend Liz for any spa treatments you need. read more

Andy Tran is the BEST! I mean it! My hair has never looked better! He takes his time gets to know what you want, and then works his magic.Great spa environment. I highly recommend De Soto salon, and Andy Tran. WOW! read more

I have been going to Andy for years now. I have never once been disappointed. He is an amazing artist and the colour and style is always spot on. Everyone there is very friendly. My hair was a disaster before I went to De Soto Salon and now it is something to be proud of. I can't recommend the salon enough. read more

I have gone to DeSoto for years. While I've used all the stylists at some point (and all are terrific), my go-to person for the last several years has been Isabelle. She is a master stylist, especially for short hair. She's fast, efficient, and I come out looking like a million bucks. read more

Sofía was super nice and gentle. Loved her! She's very informative on products that will work best for your hair. Really recommend her!

Armando, the owner of the salon, has been my hairstylist for more than 20 years. He is amazing with color and styling! I have a friend that visits from North Carolina and she always wants an appointment with him when she is here as he is the best. He is flexible with time, creative with color when I request a change and very friendly. Additionally I am able to get a mani/pedi at the same time with Aracely who is lovely and does a great job. When needed I see the Lisette/Esthetician and have been seeing her for 10 years. I love her facials and waxing. I highly recommend this salon. read more

I love Daisy!!! She's been doing my hair for a couple of years now and she always does exactly what I want. Highly recommend her...

Nikki is awesome! She is super fun to talk to and super talented! I have been going to her for years and I always love how my hair turns out! I highly recommend making an appointment to see Nikki. You will not regret it at all! read more

I go see Lizette regularly, and I highly recommend her for any facials, waxing, eyebrow or eyelash tinting!

Monique is fantastic and she really listens to you!! I love her energy and her patience when she's working on my hair!!!

I recently had a men's facial @ De Soto salon with lizette pelayo and was a little sketchy about the whole thing. But after going to lizette I now will be seeing her every month for a monthly facial. She answerd all my questions i had on skin and sent me home with a trial size skin care kit .Definitely recommend her to anyone that may have acne issues in Ventura area. read more

Andy is a true hair artist! I drive all the from Los Angeles to Ventura to get my hair done by Andy.

Andy is just great! He gave me the best color and haircut I've had in 10 years. He understands hair and color. Such a PRO. I'm getting great compliments on my hair for the first time in years! read more

I had to go 3x to get my color right. Hours after getting the first one done my scalp was BURNING!!! Second time my hair was bright Orange. Third time was finally the charm. I wouldn't send my worst enemy there. I also got extensions which fell out of my hair on my drive home. I do drive a convertable but that's no excuse. This is what happens when you go to a salon with young girls more worried about what is happening in "People" magazine than doing hair. Oh one last thing it is very unprofessional to text while applying color girls. Remeber that next time. read more

Wow! I have never had such an amazing experience with a hairdresser in my life, so I thought it was time that I do a review! Daisy Magdaleno does a great job, and I even moved salons when she did to continue getting her services. She takes her time, so I know she cares that my hair turns out exactly how I want it. She answers all my questions with patience, and gives me honest advice on hair products and which cut/color would be the most flattering with my skin tone and bone structure. From what I can tell, she knows her stuff when it comes to hair. Her easygoing personality makes it really easy to talk to her when getting pampered, which is a plus. Thank you Daisy! I get compliments on my hair cut and color all the time, and will always refer people to you! Besides my hair looking flawless when I leave, the vibe in DeSoto salon is relaxing, and you can tell that all the employees are happy to be there and love what they are doing. read more
