Maria is fantastic- the best blonde I've gotten in San Diego and the fastest too- it's like she foils with a 3rd hand somehow I really appreciate her speed and precision because we all know sitting in that chair isn't fun ! read more

I've been going to this salon since I was ten years old. Its always a relaxing environment and The staff is the most reliable and friendly group of people. I'm confident every time I make an appointment that I'll come out loving my hair. I've had a wide variety of services from vibrant colors to buzz cuts and I've loved every result! Theres no other salon I'll go to! read more

I made appointment for after 10 am. I requested to relayer my out grown A line haircut. This stylist kind of re-layered my hair, after washing, semi blow drying my hair, asked the stylist I would like to go ahead and re-do my A line. At the end of it all it was not in any way looking like an A line cut. My hair cut turned out to be an above the shoulder pixy looking cut. I was not happy with my cut. There was no point in saying anything to the stylist my hair was already cut too short to fix it. If a stylist doesn't know how to do a specific cut then that stylist needs to say I can't do that cut and pass you on to someone who does. Stylist just needs to be upfront & honest about what they can and can't do. read more

Thank you Maria ! My hair feels and looks amazing. You definitely transformed my hair from light hair to a nice rich brown color with accented face highlight! I'm in Love with this look and can't thank you enough from your sweet and kind presences and always bring my vision to life ! Thank you again ? read more

Elements Salon - Thank you Maria for my hair transformation. I went from light blonde highlights to this beautiful red brown and accent highlight in front ! - Hair Stylists Near Me - Escondido, California

Had an amazing experience with Ashley! She was quick to accommodate a timeframe and exceeded my expectations with my hair.

I am very pleased with the experience I had here today. Ashley did an amazing job and I can't wait for my next appointment with her. Thank you to Maria as well for taking the time to speak to me about the transition that I am wanting. I had did my research on the transition from dark brown to blonde and the process it will take. I knew coming in today that it wouldn't be the first appointment seeing the full result that I am looking for but I am still really happy with todays results and can't wait for my next appointment. I really would recommend them!!!! read more

Elements Salon - Thanks Ashley can't wait for my next appointment!!! - Hair Stylists Near Me - Escondido, California

I came across this location via Yelp! I go based of reviews. So when I so how many people actually liked this hair salon I didnt hesitated and reached out for an appointment. The lady whom I spoke with that made my appointment Maria was so helpful she was able to get me in soon. She had me choose a time. She did an amazing job she is super friendly and really quick at her job I could tell she has been doing this for years and really enjoys it. She asked you questions about how you want your hair and makes sure you are ok with the hair style you are going for. But in my case my hair is so damage I didnt care if she cut more than I had originally planned for. Over all very friendly staff and a very clean and chic place. I will definitely go back for a hair color application after my baby is born. read more

Elements Salon - Hair Stylists Near Me - Escondido, California

I recently moved to Escondido and couldn't make the drive to my usual hair girl anymore :( I researched for months before I committed to an appointment with a salon. I found Elements on Yelp and made an appointment for blonde highlights and to chop off most of hair. Maria was really patient with setting up an appointment that would work best for my schedule. The girl that did my hair was super nice and listened to what I wanted to do with my hair. She did a great job with getting my hair blonde (typically it takes sessions for my hair) and i was only at the salon for two hours (usually I'm in for half the day). I would definitely continue to have my hair done with Elements :) read more

I was a Saturday morning walk in and desperate for someone to fix my unruly hair. I was thinking I would have to make an appointment and come back but the ladies got me right in and to the right person! Boy did Ashley step up and work a miracle! She saw I needed a change and she helped me to see that there were more options than what I was previously limited to. She took her time and clearly loves making her clients look and feel their best. I cannot say enough about her and the entire salon generally it is a beautiful and relaxing place and I am just so glad to have found them. Next appointment is already booked and Ashley is now my new go-to stylist! read more

I am so glad I yelped this place. I was always scared of making changes to my hair but Ashley did an amazing job. She gave me a makeover so much better than I had expected. She took her time to make sure my haircut was on point. I have now a new favorite haircut and color place. read more

This is the first time leaving a review EVER but I just have to RAVE about this salon, I'm a person that is extremely picky & usually don't trust many when it comes to my hair. My mom has been the only one & her hairstylist to do my hair in my 22 years. My hair was down to my butt & dull & lifeless. MARIA @ elements brought your girl back to LIFE not only did I immediately felt comfortable in her hands but she was SO friendly. The whole salons vibe is AMAZING. And for what I got done I thought was super inexpensive considering I was willing to pay a ton, THANK YOU MARIA. I will be recommending ALL my friends & family to you & this salon!!! I will be now going to see Maria on a regular. read more

First time at this Salon. The receptionist and other staff were Professional. I went in there looking for a long awaited short layered bob cut. I was nervous. Lili took me in and did a wonderful job! She shampooed my hair, cut, strained and styled my hair. I loved it, she did great!! Price was very reasonable. I am very happy! read more

Ashley is amazing! She was able to make my hair lighter without damaging it. I'm impressed! I got lots of compliments on my hair. read more

I've been going to Maria for years. She and her team are all very kind and professional. Maria is a genuinely loving and caring person who is equally talented in her skills. She's the only person I trust with my hair. I highly recommend this salon. read more

Ashley was extremely friendly and welcoming from the beginning. She knew I was coming in to try and fix bad coloring that was done to my hair and she was patient, took her time to understand what my goal was for my hair, she actually appears to enjoy doing hair and having fun and being creative vs. just slapping it out. The salon was nice. Ashley was awesome and I absolutely love how my hair turned out! I will definitely be going back for her to cut it as well as color! Thanks Ashley! If I get a chance I'll come back on and post photos before and after. read more

Looking for a new hairstylist and found her! Maria got me in and took my gray away! So grateful and looking forward to my next visit!

Great salon! I was in a pinch and Maria was able to get me in same day, and she did a beautiful job on my color and cut. She literally took about 10 years off my look! My new go-to salon! read more

I'm not happy with how expensive it was but oh my was it worth it! The girl I talked to on the phone told me it would be $45 but it ended up coming up to $65 when I was done. *tear rolls down cheek* I got my hair deep conditioned- it feels like silk - like softest hair you're ever had upon your head Also got a trim cuz my ends were killing me. In all it was a great experience read more

Best haircut ever! Ashley is wonderful! She cuta your hair the way you want it, and understands what you want. highly recommend her.

First off, if I could give this review a zero stars rating I would!!! I would like to retract my previous positive review I posted for Maria @ Element Salón. The reason I posted a positive review was because Maria curled my hair before I can view the actual haircut. After a week, I decide to straighten my hair and that's when I realized how unprofessional it looked. The left and right side of my hair was uneven. The left side was a little under an inch higher then the right. The back of my hair was all choppy and not straight. I recommended my sister to get a hair cut with her because how my hair looked when it was curled before I noticed all of the mistakes. She also had horrible experience. Maria cut her hair short than she originally wanted it. Also, her hair was choppy and uneven in the back. I hope this review will help anyone that is deciding to go with Maria. read more

This is my 2nd time around going here and Ms. Maria always gives me the best results. She is very nice and she truly cares about your hair. She gave me very helpful advice on how to take care of my hair and how to maintain it since I wanted to go lighter blonde. I will surely recommend and go back. Thank you Ms. Maria! read more

I am absolutely over the moon about this place. I finally found my salon after living in LA. I love Jenny O. She is so cute and helpful and does an excellent job. When I walked in I loved her hair and make up, I knew I was golden. Jenny actually listened to how I wanted my hair made some professional suggestions that made me feel very confident in working with her. She wasn't blowing hot air she actually knows what she is doing. Jenny was so easy and nice to talk to, I felt like I was visiting with a friend. I love my cut and color. I've always wanted a hair cut like this. I've gone to many places and never really got the cut I wanted. I am so happy I got what I was looking for. Thanks so much Jenny for making my day. read more

Oh my wow! Beyond exceptional service, clean salon, following all protocols to protect clients from COVID. To say I was impressed is an understatement! I needed a haircut after 3 months lock down ya girls curls were looking similar to ramen noodles, so some help was needed. I contacted multiple salons and none were able to get me in this past week as all were backfilling there clientele list. Yeah, I get it, but my hairs did not seem to understand. I contacted the salon via yelp, BAM had an appointment this past week! Ashley was my stylist, she was an extreme delight! Professional, courteous and above all a great hair stylist. I cannot reccomend her or this establishment enough. My curls went from ramen noodle to wanting to be on the cover of vogue. I got some new styling tips, great conversation and price was legit on POINT! I start a new job Monday and thank you so much to Ashley and those at Elements Salon for getting me on the right path! Ya girl is confident and curlie! read more

Love this place. My hair always looks amazing...cut and color. My kids get their hair cut here also. Very inviting and calming atmosphere. read more

Elements Salon - Evin loves his new spiky haircut and mommy can finally see his adorable little face...thanks Jennifer. :) - Hair Stylists Near Me - Escondido, California

After the last person I had gone to for balyage highlights raised her prices 40%, I decided to go somewhere else. I wanted less maintenance with one hair color and a cut. I called Thursday hoping they could get me in om Saturday and luckily a stylist was available! I had an appointment with Taylor. She was very personable and knowledgeable and really explained to me the colors and tones ( which I usually just do basic dark brown) and helped me choose the right color. My color came out perfect! Dark brown with some red just like I wanted. The cut is perfect too! Its been a long time since I have found someone that cuts my hair how I like it. I am so glad that I went to Elements for my hair. I definitely recommend them and will be a repeat customer. read more

I can't say enough good things about this salon. My roommate went to check it out and came back extremely happy with the cut and color Ashley gave her. I called to make my appointment and got in a few days later. The salon is clean, and they're taking the proper precautions to keep everyone distanced and safe. Both my roommate and I don't know too much when it comes to hair, so we told them what problems we had and gave a general idea of what we wanted. They took that and ran with it. Maria was so understanding and took the time to explain what they she was doing. I never felt like I was being talked down to even though she was answering what I would imagine are fairly simple questions. I learned so much about my hair and what it needs. I'm absolutely thrilled with the results of my cut and color and will certainly be back. read more

Wow. Never would I have expected to be given such amazing and attentive service, especially as a "difficult" customer, but Maria and Delainey blew my mind... On Tuesday evening, I messaged the salon through yelp to try to book an appointment for Wednesday or Thursday. Within 5 minutes of messaging, Maria was on the phone with me, offering me times. She answered all my questions, gave me a quote, and booked me in for Wed afternoon. I came in for my appointment and was greeted at reception warmly and enthusiastically. Then I sat to wait and Maria addressed me by name (she had never met me before!) and welcomed me to the salon. I then met my stylist Delainey who gave me a rockin' purple balayage (asking me questions and offering guidance throughout)... I am thrilled with how the color came out - THRILLED. Then it was time for the cut, and this is where my super thick and difficult wavy hair gave us some trouble. Delainey cut it, and I asked her not to style it because I wanted to see how it would dry naturally. I was super happy when I left the salon with damp hair, but about an hour later when it was dry, something wasn't right... I called the salon and Maria told me to come back in right away for an adjustment. Delainey and Maria took turns working on my locks to get things looking how I like. Again, I left the salon happy... The next morning (today) I woke up to see a yelp message from Maria asking how my hair was after wearing the cut through dinner and overnight - woah, I was shocked at how much she cared! I told her honestly that it was still a little off... She told me to come back in. I didn't respond right away because I was running errands, so she called me! I was so impressed with how eager she was to make sure I was pleased with the results. I came back in a bit later and she cut my hair again. This time, I think we hit the mark!! I can't stress enough how impressed I am with the way I was treated at the salon... Every interaction I had with the staff was kind and warm and truly caring. Even when I came back so many times and felt like such a pill, they always assured me that it was MY hair and they wanted to make ME look amazing. I am super super happy with my cut and my color and I will absolutely be returning to see Delainey and Maria again soon. :) read more

Elements Salon - The final transformation! So so pleased :D - Hair Stylists Near Me - Escondido, California

***ETA: I have received a call from the owner, Maria, and she has done everything to rectify this situation for me. This is not a bad salon. I simply had a stylist, Delainey, who likely was not experienced and comfortable doing undercuts. I really struggled with posting this, because bad haircuts happen, but when I went elsewhere to get it fixed and saw just how badly it was butchered underneath I had to say something. I went in for an undercut, level 1 underneath with the length below the eye. My shave was half done and there random hairs sticking everywhere. There were random pieces left longer than others. I had clumps of unshaved hair under the long parts where she just didn't finish. read more

Great experience! I went on Yelp to look for a hair salon and within 5 minutes I had a set appointment for that same day at Elements Salon. Trapani did my hair and she did so amazing! Cut and full highlights under 2 hours! I am so happy with my results and am definitely going to be coming back. Friendly. Comfortable environment. Affordable. And AMAZING RESULTS. read more

Ashley was able to see me within a couple of days, did an outstanding job on my color, and gave me a fabulous cut. I was looking for a new stylist, after COVID affected my previous one's location and availability. I had been to Elements before for a wedding day bridal party prep session (which was amazing. I HIGHLY recommend them!) and the salon is close to me, so I decided to give it a try. Ashley is lovely. She took time hearing my story and looking carefully at my hair, then gave me her recommendations. My color ended up being beautiful! After a couple of days doing my own hair, I realized just how good the cut is that she gave me. I've already made my next appointment with her, and love that I have a new place that does outstanding work! read more

So it's safe to say I have been through dozens of stylists. The stylist here (Maria) did NOT disappoint. First off, the salon is awesome. Warm, friendly welcome when I came in. A free consultation to discuss my wants/needs/options. Warm and cold beverages served to me like I was VIP. It was really pleasant and relaxing. We talked about my hair, made some appointments (2) sessions, and I was ready to be blonde again! My first appointment went really well, not too long. Maria paid attention to what I said, and did what I wanted. I got a wonderful massage on my scalp and got to sit and relax. The second session made it PERFECT! I love my hair. No more hideous yellow and mousy brown ombre. Now I have a cool, light blonde and a fabulous cut! I will most certainly be going back there. I highly recommend this salon to anyone. read more

Elements Salon - Now I am a blonde bombshell thanks to Maria! - Hair Stylists Near Me - Escondido, California

I had problems finding a good salon. I asked a friend and she said to go here. I agreed to try it because I was in need of a hair cut and I wanted to change my hair. I told them that I'm a dirty blonde and wanted to go lighter. easy. The day before the appointment I changed my mind and wanted a blush blonde. I went and didn't have high hopes of getting what I wanted. long story short.... The people were amazing and the environment was so relaxing and inviting . The best part is I got the hair I wanted and It looked better than I expected. Do yourself and your hair a favor and come here read more

I let my hair grow long cause I couldn't find anyone who cut it like I wanted. Then, I went to Ashley at Elements! She cut my hair exactly how I wanted. I have been very happy with the way she styled my hair. Will continue to have Ashley cut my hair. Thank you so very much! read more

I had my haircut today and I am really happy with the results. Ashley is super friendly and very professional. After visiting many places, this one is the good one. read more

I found this salon on Yelp and decided to try them out because it was less than 20 minutes away from home. I messaged them over the Yelp app and Maria was very responsive with getting me on the schedule as well as providing me with a timeline and quote for my hair. I came around noon on a Saturday and the parking lot for the shopping center was pretty full. Definitely come a little early if you want to get to your appointment on time. Cute little salon in small shopping center. I had my hair done by Maria today. She put a permanent violet color in my brassy balayaged hair as well as did a little trim to get rid of my split and very dead ends. Maria was kind and attentive to my needs as well as other clients that were with other stylists. She was clearly very busy and had her hands in just about everything. This seems to be a very low key, no frills, quick service type of salon. I saw that there is a nail technician that works in the back shampoo room. They also have a lot of hair product for purchase and sell jewelry. This is a decent place to get your hair done at a very affordable price. read more

My previous hairstylist moved out of state and I needed to find a stylist that was experienced with blonde highlights. After a near hair disaster at another salon, I tried Elements based on a co-worker's recommendation who had a great experience with J. J listened to how I like to wear my hair - traditional blonde highlights with a weave pattern. She knew exactly what I was talking about and did not try to push any of the new trendy balayage stuff - thank you ;). I have a lot of long hair and the style I wear requires a lot of patience, time, and most important, talent, to bleach. J took the time to do a quality weave and lifted my hair to the perfect blonde. Her blending of my older highlights with the fresh highlights was seamless. She also gave me a clean cut that brought back to life my long hair. I just had my second highlight touch up and again it came out perfect. I will be back. If you are a blonde and want great hair (so great even strangers compliment it), then you must go to J at Elements. I was so impressed that I told my sister to go to her for highlights and she also came out looking awesome. read more

I was able to schedule a SAME day appointment here to get my hair styled for a wedding in the area! Even when I was running late, they were still able to accommodate me. The stylists here are phenomenal - special shoutout to Maria for her delicate treatment of my hair. The curls she did lasted all night. Thank you! Unfortunately I'm not from this area so I'll likely not see you again, but again, thank you for being so kind and offering me beverages and adding more dry shampoo when I asked. You and your products did wonders on my hair :) read more

They were so nice and accommodating! Delainey did an amazing job on my hair -- I got so many compliments on it after! Was a bit nervous about dyeing my hair for the first time, but she was really nice and understanding. She even surprised me with a blowdry and curl! I was scared the dye would dry out and severely damage my hair, but months later it's still shiny and smooth! read more
