Faust Salon in Scott's Valley is outstanding. I called with a hair emergency and spoke to Anna the owner and she was very helpful, supportive and kind. Thankfully, Emily had a last minute cancellation and was able to help me. She did a wonderful job fixing my color as best as she could. She carefully added highlights and took her time to explain my choices. From the moment I arrived at Faust, I could tell it was very welcoming and cohesive. The other stylists were very sweet as well and every haircut I saw that was given during my emergency session was lovely. Anna checked in throughout the process as well and it's clear she's passionate about all aspects of the hair industry. I am very grateful to have had this experience. Thank you Anna and Emily! read more

You only need look at this photo to see the skill they have at this salon. You can't even tell I spent months swimming every day and barely brushing my hair. Like...whaaaaat?!?! True magicians, and the nicest people!! read more

Faust Salon & Spa - Hair Salons Near Me - Scotts Valley, California

I cannot express how grateful I am with the incredible service I received at Faust Salon for my rehearsal dinner and wedding day! From start to finish, the team went above and beyond to ensure I looked and felt my absolute best. The consultation was seamless; Anna is incredibly thoughtful and kind. They took the time to understand my skin concerns and vision. I got a blowout for the rehearsal dinner the day before my wedding. Kat made my hair look so shiny and smooth! My 4 bridesmaids and I got ready at the salon the day of my wedding. Anna and her team were so warm and welcoming, which helped make the morning seamless. Anna did a phenomenal job on making my skin look flawless, when it's usually red and irritated. My makeup felt and looked amazing, not too heavy and not overly dramatic, but with enough oomph. Everyone loved the lashes she did for them! My makeup and hair lasted all day and through the night. Kat created exactly what I envisioned with my bridal hairstyle. We did a couple of different things, which was nice to see if I liked it or not and not left wondering if I should have done this or that. She was so adaptive and understanding with the changes that I asked her to make. She created exactly what I wanted - romantic loose, half updo. A lot of people said it was their favorite bridal hair they've ever seen! I received countless compliments from my friends and family, which elevated my bridal ego lol. The entire team was professional, friendly, and made the experience feel extra special. I highly recommend Anna and her team for any beauty service. Thank you SO MUCH for making me feel beautiful on my wedding day! read more

I truly wish I could give 0 stars, 1 is simply way too much. If you're looking for the worst bridal experience ever, look no further!! In an already stressful time of life, Anna did not hesitate to make it infinitely more stressful. She was late to every single meeting we had scheduled, at some point she was over 25 minutes late that finally I said we can only email from here on out since she'd wasted so much of my time at that point. Her complete lack of punctuality and respect for other people's time showed me she would only cause more stress on a wedding day and most likely be late. She also wouldn't respond for days or weeks on end. I understand that things come up in life, but as a business you should have a back up or someone else who is at least doing correspondence while you may not be able to. Especially when you are expecting someone to pay you over 1k for hair and makeup services, you expect at least some level of professionalism, but not Anna! She also didn't have a contract and I had to continually insist on getting a contract, then when it was received it was extremely lacking and she didn't know how to edit it, queue another long waiting period to hear back... Anyways if you're thinking about using her for any special event.. RUN! read more

I was greeted personally by the owner who was engaging and charming, her staff, delightful, helpful, provided, inspiration, and encouragement. Highly recommend. read more

Came here to get my makeup done for a wedding that I was a bridesmaid in on 9/21/25. They opened the salon for us on a Sunday. The make up experience was amazing. It started off with a quick facial massage. The massage was beautiful. Man if it only could've lasted longer. She really took the time to match my color. I have vitiligo and she matched my foundation perfectly. I would highly recommend this salon. So relaxing and the best customer service. read more

I have been going to Faust since 2009. I've seen a few different stylists over the years here, and all were so great (even when I do dumb stuff like color my hair and need them to fix it). I love their attitude, "Healthy hair is beautiful hair."), their products are mindfully selected, their facials are amazing (Mariha is the bomb). Cut, color, facials, styles, blow out, make up application...I've had it all and I wouldn't go anywhere else! read more

I had a fantastic experience this weekend with Skye for a haircut. It was my first visit to the salon, and I truly felt welcomed, pampered, and Skye went the extra mile to get to know me and know exactly what I wanted and needed for a change of style. I couldn't have asked for a more engaging and fun stylist, I left feeling great with a bouncy new "do" and felt fresh and relaxed. Anna also swung by for a visit while Skye was working her magic, so the whole morning was quite enjoyable and a wonderful start to the day. Thank you Anna and Skye!! read more

Anna and her team are gems! They have been incredibly talented and professional when it comes to special occasion makeup, skin care and hair for my kids. Plus, Anna has gone above and beyond teaching them how to apply makeup with confidence and care. Anna is patient, kind, and genuinely loves what she does -- and it shows in every interaction. She's always accommodating with scheduling, even when we've had last-minute needs for dances, performances, or celebrations. And beyond her skills, Anna is just a really cool, down-to-earth person who makes everyone feel comfortable and welcomed. We love having Faust Salon & Spa in our community for our beauty needs! read more

This is by far the best salon I've been to. I've been going to Billie for years now and she is my forever go to when I need to feel alive again. The best cut and blowout ever. I came for my appointment and my boyfriend tagged along. As soon as we walked in, the shop owner, Anna, along with the rest of the staff made us feel so welcomed, offering tea and beverages. Not only am I going to come back because Billie is here but because the salon is amazing as a whole. read more

Setting up my appointment felt very easy and that I was getting the person that's right for what I wanted and the appointment itself felt very through and talked about how I wanted my hair to look and how I usually style it and what I wanted to avoid. Inside was very nice, calm, and clean Was gentle on my ears as I have newer ear piercing :) read more

Really lovely humans! I went in for a facial for the first time and it was simply heavenly. I tend to fear people touching be but Myriah made me feel super safe and had a really good flow in her work. My face felt soooooo soothed and there wasn't a moment that didn't feel amazing. I almost fell alseep! She also did a shoulder/arm and hand massage as well while I had red light therapy. The rest of the staff are also very kind and the whole ambiance of the salon is clean and just has lovely energy. I highly recommend! read more

I used Faust Salon as my wedding hair and makeup vendor on 8/18/23 and I LOVED working with them. Anna was incredible to work with. Wonderful communication, responded quickly, answered any and all of my questions, and helped me create a timeline for getting everyone ready. Once I finally met Anna and her team in person for my hair and makeup trial, it solidified even more why this company is so wonderful. Everyone was so friendly and professional and easy to talk to. Maddie worked on my hair for the trial and wedding day and she was so wonderful. She did a great job and was very flexible and understanding when I needed or wanted something to be changed to look a little different. Anna did my makeup and she is SO good at what she does. I opted for the airbrush foundation and it turned out beautiful. She was able to bring my vision to life for my eye makeup which I appreciated so much. She also did an incredible job on my bridesmaids & mother's makeup too! Maddie and Emily both worked on my bridesmaids & mother's hair and they all looked so beautiful! I would definitely recommend this salon to any bride!! read more

Faust Salon is FANTASTIC! Went for the first time to get a haircut and walked away with the softest and shinnest hair imaginable. The owner Anna was so warm and welcoming and I instantly felt like I was going to be in amazing hands. My hair styilst Emily really understood the type of cut I was going for and gave me some killer tips for maintaining the style. I am really looking forward to going back in the future. It is truly such a gem! read more

I worked with Monica and Anna for my hair and makeup for my wedding in May and I cannot say enough good things. From the trial to day of, I truly felt like my best self. Anna and Monica listened so thoughtfully to what I was looking for and I really felt heard--any recommendations they had that were different from my original vision were explained thoughtfully and with amazing alternatives. The best part was having the two of them with me the morning of my wedding--it felt so natural and like I had two friends there celebrating with me. Weddings are expensive no matter what, but it felt amazing to support Faust and these two ladies--and it was well worth it! read more

The team at Faust are wonderful! They took their time and discussed all my needs and wants and explained what was available to me. From beginning to end they were kind, friendly and helpful, as well as knowledgeable and experienced, all with amazing energy and vibe! I have been looking for a great salon and I am so grateful I found them. Thank you so much. We will see you again! read more

I went into the salon to get my hair bleached and dyed. I don't think I could've chosen a better place to get the job done. Everyone was incredibly warm and inviting to me when I came in feeling down. I didn't expect to come out of the shop feeling emotionally better as well! They also serve some excellent tea! I will definitely be coming back anytime I need some work done on my hair. Thank you Billie for the excellent hair dying experience! read more

I needed help, and found it at Faust! The owner, Anna, welcomed me into her Community with the same shining grace I see every time I go back. Emily knows what I want, checks her notes, and does a great job every time! My sons have difficult hair (wavy, curly...) and both choose to return for the great outcomes they provide, consistently. Check it out! read more

First visit and I had my hair done by Nicole. She was correcting my color after a less-than-stellar job done previously. So she had a tough task. I have to say that my regular stylist stopped doing hair during COVID, so I've been searching for someone new that I could trust. I have found her. Nicole was able to get rid of the brassiness, and she cleaned up the cut. The highlights she created added dimension that was lacking from the last session at another salon. I'm really happy with it now and feel like I have finally found a salon I can make my regular spot. My hair felt healthy when she was done, which is important. She also gave me samples of the products she used and explained when I should use them. While there, I met Annie, the owner, who welcomed me to the salon. Mattie was at the front of the house, and she was great. She is the one who suggested I see Nicole, and her suggestion was perfect. The salon is clean and welcoming and has easy parking as it is in a strip mall, and there is parking right in front of the door! I am thrilled to have found them! read more

I've been going to Faust in Scotts Valley for 10+ years and highly recommend it. I've gone to several of the stylists there over the years and have always received wonderful service. My current stylist is the talented Emily. The salon owner, Anna, is a gem and truly cares about her clientele. Love you Faust! read more

Incredible salon with a cozy yet very professional vibe! I have indulged in many of the services and am always extremely happy. My hair is challenging and I always leave feeling stylish and confident. The owner, Anna, is a wise and vibrant human. Love Faust! read more

I can't recommend Faust Scott's Valley enough! Anna is absolutely wonderful and I usually go to Emily who I love as well! They are warm and welcoming and have a way of helping you decide what you want and leaving feeling fabulous! They also offer a kerastase treatment that lasted me so long feeling smooth and silky, I wouldn't have known about this amazing treatment without their knowledge and expertise! read more

This is a fabulous salon. The owner Anna is so personable and caring. She does a great job of creating an environment that is welcoming and inspiring. Last time I had my hair done with Ciera. She did a wonderful job with a color change that I was nervous to do. She was very considerate and made me feel assured the entire time. She also listened carefully to and cut my hair just the way I wanted. The complete look turned out amazing. I was thrilled with the results. I will be returning! read more

I have been going to Faust forever and have always had an excellent experience and loved every style and color I get. Anna is such an amazing owner...always making me feel welcomed and cared about. Emily has been so patient with my questions and I always walk out of the salon happy with my hair. read more

I met Anna in March 2023 and instantly connected with her! She is kind and caring, loving, personable, and very passionate about her business and clients. Perhaps the thing that stood out to me the most about her is her passion for helping others and empowering them to feel confident and great in their own skin. She has been successfully running her own business for over a decade now and is incredibly hardworking and knowledgeable in this field. If you're looking for an authentic, high quality, professional, and customized beauty experience, I highly recommend Faust Salon & Spa! read more

Emily is a rockstar and did THE BEST job on my hair ever!! I had flat and dull hair and old color that had grown out giving me two-tone color. The new color, shine of my hair, and layered cut is so fantastic. I've never been this excited about my hair and I am so grateful for her! read more

Jessica is absolutely amazing and was able to get the general vibe of what I wanted from the pictures I brought in. She has an amazing ability to understand what I'm asking for, even though my words may not be clear or fully correct (I don't know all the lingo). Past her communication skills, her techniques were unmatched and she resurrected the brightness in my blonde while helping me get to a more "bronde" state by pulling lowlights through with a blend of two colors to best get my naturally red undertones hair to a nice, cool, light brown. I had never had an olaplex treatment before, even though I use a lot of their at home products. Jess explained it to me as she started the service and let me know how long I'd be sitting for and ensured I was comfortable. I had a wonderful first time and am so happy that I was able to book my next appointment with her 8 weeks out. She does have a lot of happy clients to schedule, so I'll be sure to book my next appointment while checking out each time. Anna is also super awesome! She came over to me and introduced herself as the owner and hyped me up for the "after" pictures during the Instagram photo shoot. She gave me some advise on how to best maintain my hair while giving me some samples and information rather than trying to sell products. Anna was so nice and has put a wonderful team together and I can't stop recommending Jess and the salon to people (3 already, since yesterday!) read more

I had an amazing experience! My hair was cut by Lisa and she did a great job. Normally I'm a little skeptical about getting my haircut but she asked questions and made sure I was comfortable with the vision. She exceeded my expectations! I also had a nice experience with the owner Annie who booked my service, went over the shampoo/conditioner I purchased and booked my next visit. Thank you! read more

Anna is great! She made my daughter feel so welcome during her makeup lesson. The session was educational and fun. It was clear people loved the salon and Anna, people were stopping by to say hi. The space was super clean and cute. read more

Got my hair styled, asked for curls and fell out within the hour before I even reached my location. Paid $100.00 for something I could've had a family/friend do... I just thought this might be easier or even last for a little longer. The price range was off, Make sure to ask for pricing upfront... won't be back. The stylist was overpriced and seemed to have a limited range of styling. This seems to be common in smaller towns though. read more

I just had the most amazing facial I've ever had at this salon! Not only is Myriah the sweetest but her experience and advice on my skin was so helpful. I'm 4 1/2 months postpartum and finally made it out for some "me" time. I am so grateful I did! I felt like I was in a different world of relaxation and bliss. Plus my skin is glowing from it. Highly recommend adding this to your budget once in awhile. We'll worth it! read more

I've been seeing Nicole at Faust salon for a while now and I am never disappointed. She is a great listener and consistently gets my color just right. I am very picky! She is a master at her craft. I'm so grateful to Miss Anna (owner) for introducing me to her. I love that they carry quality hair care lines in their boutique area and I'm always greeted with smiles and hellos. Book your appointment soon. Thank you Faust Salon! read more

Had such an amazing experience last week with Ashland! My roots were very dark, and grown out, and I wanted to go to an icy blonde. My hair was also way overdue for a cut. She gave me exactly the color and length I wanted and I am so happy with it! I was also in and out of my appointment so much quicker than some salons take. Ashland is super efficient and extremely talented! I loved my appointment! read more

Amazing hair studio-wish I had found it sooner! I'm super picky about my hair, and this place is top notch! I got a cut and color for my blonde curly hair which tends to get bleached out/orange and they did a fanstastic job just making it look natural and rich and have more dimension. Spent a lot of time consulting me and everyone in the studio is just lovely. Highly recommend! read more

I've been a few times and have had my color done by Jessica and she is a total pro! She takes her time, listens and my hair always comes out fabulous! I highly recommend her. read more

Anna at Faust in Scotts Valley is a true artist. After an unsuccessful bridal makeup trial with another salon, a friend recommended I go see Anna. I have a very fair complexion and strawberry blond hair so I was looking for someone who could create a glamorous look without making me appear painted or mannequin-like. I was having an outdoor boho wedding and wasn't going for the "Mac look." Anna sat down with me and listened carefully to what I wanted. She reassured me that she could alter anything I wanted if it wasn't to my taste. She gave me individual false lashes (which stayed on throughout my honeymoon!), a dewey complexion with foundation and perfectly applied lipstick. Beautiful! And the makeup lasted throughout my entire wedding day! I was so impressed with this salon that I have gone back for more eyelashes, a fab blow out and next up a facial with Susan. Every time I feel pampered and like it's a "high end" experience. So refreshing for Santa Cruz! The only thing I wish was different is the name. There are a few other Fausts in Santa Cruz area and this one should not be compared to them. Five stars for Faust in Scotts Valley! read more
