Really happy with my haircut at Essence Salon with Yessenia!…read more Booked a haircut appointment with Yessenia through the website for a Tuesday afternoon. I asked for a rounded haircut with lots of layers and face-framing pieces and I showed her my inspo photos as well. She first washed my hair and then got started on the cut. Yessenia did an amazing job! She was friendly and professional and gave me exactly what I requested. I wasn't sure whether to go with lighter or heavier curtain bangs/face-framing pieces, and she knew exactly what would suit me when she suggested sticking with lighter face framing. She also somehow managed to style my frizzy Indian hair perfectly without using much tension on the brush, which was shocking to me. Overall, I had a very positive experience with Yessenia and Essence Salon and will definitely be returning!

I've been on the hunt for a new hair stylist, and Grace is truly that girl! From the start, she…read morelistened carefully to every detail I shared and took the time to go through my inspiration photos with me, making sure we were on the same page before she even picked up the scissors. I originally booked this appointment last minute after another stylist canceled on me the day before a trip - and honestly, I'm so grateful that happened, because I would've never found Grace otherwise. Sometimes things really do work out the way they're supposed to. She absolutely killed my haircut. I have curly/wavy, thick hair, and she knew exactly how to work with it - something that's hard to find. The shape, the movement, everything came out better than I imagined. Also, the vibe was amazing - super welcoming, relaxed, and just overall such a great energy the entire appointment. Grace is also genuinely so sweet, which made the whole experience even better. Safe to say Grace is officially stuck with me as a client. Highly recommend her if you're looking for someone who really knows what they're doing, actually listens, and creates an amazing overall experience.

Jenny has been cutting my hair for about a year now and she's wonderful. She will always cut my…read morehair when I show up early as long as she's not with someone else. She's made some small adjustments to my cut over this past year that have turned out well. I am an "easy" haircut but people get it wrong all of the time but Jenny is very consistent and would recommend her to anyone! Convenient location just around the corner from Eureka on Castro Street. All of the stylists here are very friendly and it's a great atmosphere to be around.

I was looking for a salon that wasn't charging exorbitant prices for a child's shampoo & trim. It was quick. And it cost $50. Plus a $10 tip that I was more than happy to give. They did a great job. My daughter was thrilled with the great hair scrub she got during the shampoo. Needless to say, we will definitely be back!

After 21 years of amazing haircuts by Mariola, I must tell the world! Am I ever the lucky one to…read morehave met Mariola all those many years ago. She was recommended to me by a friend and still today, I wouldn't even think to go to anyone else! I can count on Mariola to work her wizardry every time I come in for a cut. I remember her telling me one day, that each time she cuts my hair, it might be just a tad bit different. She looks at my face, the current length. She asks questions, even today...were the bangs too long last time? Do want this part shorter, etc? She takes to a haircut, the way an artist might take to a canvas and she enjoys the process. It may take a little longer to finish, but she's a perfectionist and I'm totally okay with that. The finished look is always bright and refreshing. She is up with trends, and yet knows all the classic styles as well. Being an artist myself, I let her do whatever she wants with my hair. She truly loves to create something great and she does, every time! My friends and family are still commenting on my cute haircut. I happily tell them, Mariola is still doing my hair! She's even able to work with gobs of white strands, making it look cool to be older and not coloring my hair. We joke about that...maybe someday I will. Also, Mariola is just a sweet, wonderful person. We chat about anything and everything and I always learn something from her. Thanks Mariola, for 21 years of great hair!!! If you're searching for your own refreshing new look, set-up an appt with Mariola!

She is very patient and kind with any questions you have, and you can feel how much you are in good hands with her. After receiving a haircut from her, I feel like a new person with a fresh start for the Chinese New Year of the Fire Horse! Her guidance and wisdom made me much more confident in all of my decisions, and it was a warm feeling talking with her. If you ever need a haircut, color, or treatment, you are set to go. She is a wonderful person with a gentle and caring heart. I think I found another wonderful hair stylist/specialist! Highly recommend! *** Bonus Note: Make sure to check what payments she accepts! I believe it is Zelle, Venmo, or cash. We must always be ready for our specialists who take such great care of us! :)

The first time I went to Thy was actually for a color correction after I had a bad experience at another salon. She did an amazing job fixing my hair, and I've trusted her with it ever since. I usually show her a reference photo, and she always does an incredible job getting my hair as close to the inspiration as possible. I always leave happy with the results and highly recommend her!

I've been with Thy for over a decade. She's been there for me through multiple life events and…read morecountless hair transformations. I still remember what first drew me in - and what probably drew you in to read this review: endless photos of gorgeous, luscious, silky, perfectly dimensional colored hair that looked like it was done by a celebrity stylist. She's only gotten more skilled over the years, and her clientele more loyal. Thy's work always feels classy, polished, and effortlessly luxurious -- never overdone, never trendy in a way that feels temporary. There's an elegance in how she colors hair and styling that makes the final result look timeless. Not only is she an artist, but she listens carefully, takes everything you say into consideration, and also gives honest, expert advice -- including when the answer is, "No, I'm not going to bleach your whole head of hair." You can immediately tell she has a quiet, resolute dedication to delivering her best every single time, no matter how many times you've been in her chair. Thy is exceptional, and if you're lucky enough to book her, I promise you'll walk out of the salon smiling and taking a million selfies.

My hair has a bit of a natural wave but it was never actually curly. I got a straight perm two years ago so I had frizzy, wavy hair that was growing out along with straight hair leftover. This year my hair started growing out more curly. I asked Vivian to give me a cut that'll enhance my natural waves. The cut she gave me totally surpassed my expectations (see pictures). Everyone thought I got a perm. I got so many compliments. She also taught me the correct way to apply different hair products without selling me on anything. I highly recommend her.

It is without a doubt perfect and very very close to what my hair looked like before cancer! I love it!!

I am extremely disappointed with the experience my daughter and daughter-in-law had at your salon…read moreon such an important occasion. My daughter came in excited to have her hair styled for her pre-engagement dinner--a day when she should have felt beautiful, confident, and celebrated. Instead, the stylist repeatedly criticized the hairstyle she wanted, telling her that it was "just a trend" and that she should choose something "timeless" instead. Rather than listening to what my daughter wanted, she was made to feel uncomfortable and unsure of herself. She was too intimidated to continue speaking up and ultimately left the salon with a hairstyle she disliked. It was heartbreaking to see her so upset on a day that should have been filled with happiness. My daughter-in-law had a similarly disappointing experience. She was confident enough to advocate for the look she wanted, yet instead of respecting her preferences, the staff referred to her as "too demanding." In fact, one of your staff members even said to me, "Your daughter-in-law is too demanding." I found that comment highly unprofessional and inappropriate. A client who clearly communicates her preferences is not being demanding--she is simply expressing what she would like for a special event. The purpose of visiting a professional salon is to receive expert service while also feeling heard, respected, and cared for. Personal opinions about a client's taste should never be imposed, nor should clients be made to feel judged for requesting the style they envision. What should have been a joyful part of our family's pre-engagement celebration became an upsetting experience that affected both of these young women. I hope you take this feedback seriously and remind your staff that professionalism includes listening to clients, respecting their choices, and ensuring they leave feeling confident rather than discouraged.
