Summer knows her products, can give great advice on aftercare and upkeep when it comes to color, etc. My blonde never turns out brassy!!! Summer Expressions also has a talented team of other makeup artists and hair stylists. I was lucky enough to have Amanda bless me with her skills - Smokey eye, lashes, etc for a night out.

When I tell her what kind of haircut I want, she always delivers exactly what I ask for. She is super friendly and personable.

The salon is super cute always clean with an open concept, light and fresh. Easy to book online and highly recommend her.

This was always easy to find when I lived in the city but coming back to a small town I was just getting good hairdressers. They don't teach a lot about makeup in beauty school and it is hard for someone to make a living here only doing freelance makeup. That being said I am soooooo thrilled I have found a fabulous hair dresser. She could teach many people about cut, color and a modern updo. I decided to see if she could do the same thing for my makeup and holly cow she blew me away!!! Call Dee Dee If you need hair and makeup done for an event/wedding. Obviously call her if you are looking for a new hairdresser in SLO County. One more thing- she also has the best personality. Your Welcome!!!

This cute little hair salon is tucked away in a popular building in downtown. Due to the…read morepopularity, there can be difficulty finding parking. However, there is a lot near by with 75 minutes free parking then you are charged after. While waiting for my stylist, i noticed a bridal party getting ready in a private room. Heather did my updo and she was so sweet! I told her what my dress looked like and the theme of my event. I gave her freedom to choose what to do and she showed me a picture of an updo. It was perfect! She did a wonderful job and was so pleasant to be with. I would highly recommend her!

I was completely blown away by the Carlyle Salon.

I emailed the salon to schedule and received a response 10 minutes later. They had a full schedule so they contacted some freelance artists who came to the salon to take care of us. We were greeted by a gorgeous salon, champagne and lovely receptionist. Everyone was so kind and wonderful to talk to. My mother in law and had never had her hair and makeup done so she felt extremely spoiled, which is exactly what I wanted. Hair by Yannely, makeup by Cynthia. 20 out of 10. I'll be back anytime I'm in the area.

Kelly did my highlight/lowlight foil and I was very impressed and satisfied with her work. The…read morecolor was a bit too subtle, but she said she would add more lowlights if I wanted at no charge, so I think I will take her up on that. She offered me coffee/tea in the morning and was accomodating. I enjoyed the space itself as well. Clean, open, spacious, all white, and organized. In the time you have to wait for the dye, you can try on makeup! So that was a fun bonus in the salon. They also have some great product lines to browse through to pass the time. I have a hard time sitting for too long, and so that was the only drawback for me, that the foil could have been done a bit faster (sorry kelly)! Going back for a haircut and look forward to another nice experience. I would say try this out for color so far, they do well in color.

Mine includes: * 1 blowout a month * 10% off products * a cute little anniversary surprise * easy booking through the app (major plus when life is chaotic) The appointments are usually around 45 minutes and I always walk out feeling like the queen I am. Also the complimentary bevvie situation??? Local rosé, bubbly, sauv blanc, coffee or tea... say less. Every stylist I've had has been kind, efficient, and never made the experience feel rushed or awkward. The vibe is polished but still approachable. As someone who truly does not enjoy doing their own hair, this has been one of my favorite little self-care luxuries.
