Bailey is the BEST ! I had been getting my hair colored to blonde by root touch up for years, and then 4 years ago I met Bailey who recommended highlighting... what a perfect idea for my locks ! My hair is naturally dark brown, though I love it blonde. Bailey does microlink extensions for me, and I prefer this technique over the taped in I used to have. LOVE IT! I cannot say enough positive things to accurately describe the talent, attention to detail, kindness, brilliance and artistry of this extraordinary young woman who has added a ton of joy to my life both personally and professionally. She will always be my stylist & colorist. Oh yeah, and she does Lash Extensions too! 7 out of 5 stars Evolve is awesome

It's been a long overdue session with Brooke Shaw! I'll wake my pregnant tired @$$ up for The Queen of Blonde. I'm lucky enough to squeeze in an appointment with her before the entire Bay Area will have to close again. I didn't want to look like a hobo 4 months from now with 6 inches of dark roots. Brooke is so good at what she does, and she's super fast. I can get out of here with blonde highlights, and a haircut... AND still be early for work! She gets booked up pretty fast with color, cuts, extensions. So book through the salon website or contact her through her INSTAGRAM! Brooke's INSTAGRAM is: Brookeshawhair

Brooke Shaw is Magic !!! My hair was in bad shape because i kept getting my hair colored. My hair was so damaged and Brooke brought it back to life. I am so grateful for her ! She is great at it all, color correction, styles and cuts. The establishment is clean and hip, on the east side where I grew up. I have referred many friends to her, i get nothing but amazing reviews from each of them. I Highly recommend her !! She specializes in Blonde to ladies ... I've had every color imaginable and she makes them all lool

I walked in to discuss what I wanted, regarding color and cut. I specifically made a point of saying I wanted a light purple color, no peroxide, like I had been enjoying for years from another salon...one that washes out over a couple months. Made an appointment and came in s few days later. I left with my same color shade of brown, not a hint of purple... After the first washing of my hair at home, I could already see teeny bits of grey hair!! The other product made my hair shine, no peroxide, color lasted for 3 months. They were nice enough. Update...so the salon manager and stylist messaged me to remove my review... they said if I came back in, they guaranteed I would leave with purple hair. So I went back a second time. I don't see purple, and I was thinking they would have offered me a discount, as I have spent quite a bit in these 2 visits. No discount offered. Next time, she said, we will add more purple. Hundreds of dollars later, I will post a picture of my hair 2 days after the second appointment. (Purple?) And a cut.

Caroline is amazing! I love my vivid colors and my haircut layers rock! She is incredibly skilled and knowledgable and answered all my questions about products and how to keep my hair in good shape and healthy! I feel so lucky to have found her!

If you're looking for a beautiful color, cut and/or extensions, go see Brooke, she's amazing! She fixed my hair and made me feel like a brand new person again. I usually dread going to the salon just thinking about all the time I'll spend there and I also get really anxious about how the outcome will be, but I knew I was in good hands and I was so relaxed with Brooke. I swear the time flew right by and before I knew it we were done and I had dope ass hair! Seriously go see her, not only is she the best, she's also super sweet and fun

Ariana U.

Brooke did an amazing first session. I seriously can't wait for the next session to go even blonder She took all the right precautions. I am so thankful she got me in right away my hair needed some help. 11 months without going to the salon was too much. But thank God for her, she is super sweet and did an amazing job! What else can you ask for!?

Diana and Lauren wedding at Sand Rock Farm, Aptos 10.19.19. Hair by Kendra G, Evolve Beauty Lounge.

Ann F.

Kendra G has been doing my cut and color for at least 6 years and I love her! She is so talented, keeps up to date on all training opportunities, and is very fun and personable. In October, my daughter was married at the local beautiful Sand Rock Farm and as a favor to me, Kendra helped with most of the hair for the wedding. She arrived at 7:45am and worked her tail off until at least noon. I'm attaching a photo of the bridal party so that you can see all of the gorgeous hair. Kendra does not normally do weddings anymore but please consider her for your own hair and color needs. I can highly recommend her!

Diana F.

My mom has been going to Kendra for years. So, when it came time to pick a hairdresser for my wedding, Kendra was the first choice. To say she was amazing would be an understatement! Kendra made my wife look like an absolute princess. I can't get enough of the photos of her hair. She also took my normally boring hair and turned it into something special. And, taught me how to do it at home! In addition to making my mom look like a rockstar as well, Kendra went on to do stunning looks for a number of our bridesmaids. Kendra went above and beyond to make sure we all looked perfect. Add to her talent the fact that Kendra is super fun. She was such a great energy to have for our getting ready festivities. All of us highly recommend Kendra! Whether it's for a special event or for a regular haircut, you'll be happy you chose her.

I recently visited Evolve while on a trip visiting my family. I live in NYC and am a hairdresser as well but was too busy to get my roots done before I went on holiday. I read a ton of reviews and gave Evolve a call. The receptionist was super helpful and nice and said she didn't see any availability on the books but she would check and call me back. She called me back with in 10 min and was able to fit me in a little bit later that day. I was booked with Anita who was extremely personable and professional. She listened to me attentively and went above and beyond to insuring absolutely perfect results and the integrity of my hair. She took care in toning it mixing multiple glazes making it super crisp and seamless.

My favorite salon is the Santa Cruz area (specifically Capitola). They are so friendly here, the vibe is laid back and you can tell everybody here gets along really well. The stylists are very experienced, I would trust any of them with my hair. Sarah did an amazing job on my hair and was very attentive to what I wanted done. I also received a complimentary wax dip for my hands and a lovely hand massage. This is also one of the less expensive salons in the area. Definitely worth checking out if you're looking for a trustworthy salon! read more

I just got my hair dyed by Rochelle Escobar at Evolve Beauty Lounge - and I LOVE IT! Not only do I love it, my husband loves it and I've gotten not stop compliments about it too. It's definitely given me a nice confidence boost. Rochelle specializes in vivid colors, and it shows. She is so talented! I came in and showed her way too many different pictures because none of them really captured what I imagined and tried to describe what I wanted the best I could...she basically read my mind AND made my hair way better than I could've imagined. I have long dark hair so the process took about 5.5 HOURS to do, and she powered through it without even taking a break! She was so sweet, and extremely accommodating making sure to refresh my water and trade out the magazines I had read with new ones - without me even asking. Then served me a frosty beer to top it off. I can't wait to go back and have her do my hair again! Evolve Beauty Lounge is all together a fantastic salon that both my husband and I keep returning to. Keep up the great work ladies!! read more

Bailey sweet and kind nature makes the process of booking to see her so seamless and accommodating.

My stylist, Evelyn, is helping me to return my hair to its natural shade of gray after dying it for decades. Rather than just stop coloring it and have the dreaded process of growing out your dyed hair, she is blending in my natural color with my dyed color. Evelyn is so good at this you can barely tell where my natural color ends and my dyed color begins. I have been with Evelyn for almost 20 years and I have followed her from salon to salon. I am so happy that she was able to buy this salon and is now molding it to match her dream. Her stylists are talented and happy. Her products are first rate. I can't recommend Evolve enough.

Nikki is the bomb! Nicest lady to chill with during your pamper day EVER! I have strong sensitivity to colors that cover up my grays. I usually bring my own color from Whole Foods which covers my grays and doesn't cause a rash. This last time I only had a half bottle to bring. It wasn't enough! She zipped over to Whole Foods and brought back 3 boxes to have on hand!

We came to Santa Cruz for a sister vacation. The weather weeks before had been STUNNING however…read morefor our trip the first three days rained. That's ok a girl can pivot so we decided to do facials. I found Luna Beauty through yelp, and we booked two facials with Alexandra for one hour. Our plan was to go back to back. When we arrived we both wanted to add dermaplane and Alexandra recommended the 90 min oxygen facial. My sister and I agreed so we ended up splitting days. My sister had hers first and she was glowing. My sister said that she and Alexandra chatted a bit but mostly just quiet during the treatment. For me, Alexandra and I had some casual conversation up until the massage point. So if you're a girly who likes silence or a girly who can chat Alexandra will meet the energy. What I liked the most was the heated bed (!!), but mostly and the care Alexandra took to make sure my skin was not reactive. I tend to flush and she was conscientious about that for my treatment. It was my favorite facial experience to date and I've booked her already for May and June. Yes I'm traveling to her!! Self care weekends for life!

I had scheduled a…read moregelx and had to reschedule, I quickly agreed to the new date and didn't realize that it rescheduled to just gel, which I take accountability for not completely reading the full message. She worked around it and called her boss (next client) to see if she could come a little later. My baby was with me due to unforeseen circumstances and it was a little awkward. The owner showed her a Barbie doll and was helpful toward that situation. My nails she messed up on didn't put the bonding glue on a nail and continued. They seemed fine till I left and noticed 2 of the nails completely crooked and when messaged about it she said she adjusted the tip for nail bed and Is out of town and to file it cause that's what she would do. My other fingers were straight, never had a problem before. It was on a Friday and by Monday a couple of the nails were falling off and broken. I don't do much with my hands so for 80$ nails and 20$ tip, to fall off within less than 3 days isn't great. I have paid way less and they lasted longer and looked better and if not they would have me come back in and take off the nail and re-do it. A second one split 5 days in, they looked rushed and not put on correctly

I booked an appointment with Phoebe at Prism Beauty for a pedicure…read more It is very easy to book an appointment through Prism's website. You select your service, any add ons, artist, day, and time. I scheduled for a Friday, but the artist later texted me to see if I could change my appointment time. I couldn't, so we scheduled for a different day, which was not a problem. There is a $5-$10 price difference between booking with a "senior" or "junior" artist for nail services. I think Prism should reconsider that policy because labeling someone a "junior" artist makes you think you are getting someone who is less experienced or won't do as good of a job and I don't think that is true at all, especially on a basic pedicure or manicure. Prism Beauty is on the corner of a busy main road (Capitola) and a residential street (El Dorado). They do not have a parking lot, so you have to find a spot on the street. When I went, there was nothing available on the residential street close to their building, but I found a spot a little further up the main road. Parking isn't a deal breaker, but definitely give yourself extra time, just in case parking is scarce. When you walk into Prism Beauty, there are manicure stations to your right, lash beds to the left, and two pedicure stations straight ahead. The pedicure stations are on a raised platform with an additional step up to the platform. There is no hand rail from the floor to step nor the step to the platform. If you have any physical disabilities or balance issues, it could be tricky. I would call ahead to see if they have an alternative if you want a pedicure and think the step up would be problematic. I am sure they would also lend a steadying hand if needed. Phoebe was setting up when I walked in. She addressed me by name and was welcoming. She told me to come up and have a seat. I asked if I should choose a color first, but she said she would bring me my options. They have a basket with all of the color options. Reds, pinks, purples, blues, etc. are bundled together, so you can easily find the color family you want and then a specific color. I chose a color, but when Phoebe went to look for it, no luck. She came back and said they have some colors only in gel and the color I chose was one of them. I picked another color, but she said she would also look for something similar. She brought two colors she chose and one was close to what I wanted. I was satisfied, but I did think it would have been easier if I just looked at the polish wall and picked one, since the samples can be misleading in terms of availability. Prism uses pedicure "kits" that come with a scrub, mask, and massage lotion. Phoebe also cleaned up the cuticle with an electric "sanding" tool and used a disposable scrubbie cube on my feet. My feet feel soft. I still have some dry skin on the sides of my outer toes, but they are much improved and look good in open-toes shoes. I paid extra for nail art. I like to get polka dots on all of my toes. My husband is always amused by my polka-dot toes. He judged these dots to be good, but not the best I have had. He pointed out that others have varied the size of the dots to cute effect. These dots are on the small side. Phoebe chatted with me a bit, but I had to initiate most of the talk. The artists working at Prism are clearly friends and the other clients who were there and came in were obviously regulars. They were all talking with one another. I was the outsider. It would have been nice if they had asked me more questions to draw me in, even simple things like if I live nearby or how I found their salon. Overall, I got a very nice pedicure at Prism. I would go back, but I would be very cautious about the days/times I booked due to traffic and parking. I have been trying to find a new nail artist because the person I went to for over ten years moved away from the area. I have tried four places. I would rank Prism #2 of the four for overall feel and outcome, but they win in terms of ease of booking.

I've been getting my hair colored with Vivid colors by Rochelle Escobar at Evolve Beauty Lounge in Capitola for a couple of years. She does such a great job that I am more than willing to drive from San Jose in rush hour traffic to get it done by Rochelle. I have stopped asking for specific colors or styles because she is such an amazing artist that I have always been thrilled with her creations. I get so many compliments wherever I go and many of my friends are jealous. My seventh grade students all think it's the coolest, and some have said they want to get their hair like mine. I will gladly continue the trek over the hill to get these results. read more

Traveled a long way to see Brooke, as she is the blond guru! She was able to successfully turn my daughters hair from home bleach tragedy to gorgeous blond without doing any more damage to her hair! My daughter looks even more gorgeous and is so happy with the results! I also received a trim and brunette color touch up and I'm simply in love with how shiny and soft my hair is! The salon is gorgeous and clean! They are doing everything right to keep that nasty virus far away from their salon. Thank you Brooke for you amazing work and for making us feel beautiful! We will be back soon! read more

Huge recommendation for Evolve Beauty Lounge, especially for Sarah. She is a lovely person and incredibly knowledgeable stylist and colorist who really took time to discuss with me different options and recommend one that would be healthy for my hair. The result proved to be the most stunning: a rich monochromatic hue that blended perfectly with my natural hair color and complemented my skin tone. Subtle lowlights added a seriously dimensional look and perceptible variety. I walked out looking and feeling great! read more

Coming from a family of hairdresser and barbers, I can say without question that Evolve is a top tier establishment. My wife and daughter both go for their hair and beauty needs and I go for mine.
