    Never have I ever got so many compliments on my hair. I have a round face and styling my hair is not easy but Farin did a perfect job. Thank you!!

    Farin was personable, efficient, sweet, and discussed and felt my hair before cutting - she listened to my goals and helped me understand the upkeep involved. I've had several mediocre experiences at other places, and I was nervous about trying something new, but she was wonderful and my new 'do is beautiful!! This place is a gem! Call ahead of time to schedule a time :)

    After keratin smoothening by Farin
    Sneha T.

    Farin is absolutely brilliant. Since I am an Indian with a very thick head of hair, I have always found it hard to find people who can style my hair effectively. I started going to Farin for haircuts and styling right after I realized how inclined she is to do a perfect job.. My first styling had my hair smooth as silk for 3 days! I recently decided to get keratin smoothening done by her cause I knew she could handle it better than anyone else I have seen. She blew my mind with how precise she was. The five hours were spent with her diligently applying keratin and ironing the smallest sections of my hair with utmost patience. She even counted every time she ironed a section! What's more..she is a very pleasant conversationalist! :)

    Before Farin - crooked haircut!

    I love Farin! I had a poor experience somewhere else. Long story short - Farin drove back into work and fixed my hair after she had already gone home for the day. On top of that, she made it look fantastic and told me what worked for my hair within what I was asking for. She is amazing. Thank you Farin

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.

    I've been going to J59 (back when it was JulieQ in Mountain View) for over 15 years, so this review…read moreis especially disappointing for me to write. This was the first time I decided to get partial highlights. During my consultation, Stephanie recommended a color approach that sounded good, so I moved forward with both a haircut and highlights appointment. , What surprised me was that they did the haircut first and fully blow-dried my hair to check the cut before starting the highlighting process. After the highlights were applied, my grays still weren't covered, so they did an additional touch-up. That meant my hair was blow-dried multiple times in a single appointment, including after bleaching. I left with hair that felt significantly drier than before. I was also unhappy with the initial color result because the highlights looked patchy. To their credit, the salon contacted me and offered to bring me back for a correction, which I appreciated. At the follow-up appointment, Stephanie showed me a chocolate brown highlight color and asked if I liked it. I said yes, and she explained that a toner would be an easy fix. After the toner was applied, however, the highlights were essentially no longer visible. I have naturally dark hair, and now it looks very close to my original color. The end result is that after multiple chemical processes, multiple rounds of heat styling, several hours in the salon, and over $300 spent, I no longer have visible highlights, and my hair feels dry, brittle, and damaged. I appreciate that the salon attempted to correct the issue, but unfortunately, the final result left me disappointed. After more than 15 years as a customer, this experience has made me feel like I need to look elsewhere for future color services.

I could go on and on... she really has a sense of respect with her clients that I appreciate the most. She listens to exactly what you want and doesn't pressure you to do something she prefers or thinks would look better. Side story: I've been traumatized by other stylists cutting off a foot of hair, when I just ask for a 3 inch trim. Marlise has been the FIRST stylist that actually listens and did not go overboard. When she was done, I was surprised that she listened and even told her she could cut more! LOL!! Anyways, her studio is gorgeous, spacious and has good vibes all around. She is easy to book with and I met one of her assistants, Tori and she is a sweetheart too!! I had a mid-quarantine crisis back in July 2020 and cut/colored my hair myself. I did red tones, that Marlise worked her magic to lift out. Peep the pics!! Fast forward to July 2021, Marlise styled me with a Haircut, Foliage (sp?) and root smudge to get me back to rockin this bronde color :) Thank me later y'all, Glossed Studio will not fail you!

I usually wait a long time…read morebetween haircuts, so I was in the search for a new hairstylist and stumbled on her via Yelp. Her appointments were booked out a few weeks in advance, but I was willing to wait based on all of the positive experiences that people have had with her. Booking online was super easy and straightforward. When I got there, we discussed what kind of haircut I wanted and she was very helpful with her suggestions; I was looking for a Korean-style haircut with long layers with face-framing. She is also very knowledgable about trending styles, since she's studied/practiced in Vietnam and Korea before. She did a great job with my haircut and made it feel super light and healthy, perfect timing right before summer. I really also liked the products that she used too, they smelled so good, and she finished off my haircut with a blowout/curls. I love my haircut and will definitely be returning again!

The conversation was easy and enjoyable, and I was really happy with how the cut turned out. Overall, a great experience and I'll definitely be back. I've been seeing Yeye for about two years now, and that's probably the best endorsement I can give. I've gone back consistently because she always does a great job and takes the time to understand what I'm looking for. She remembers my preferences, pays attention to the details, and never makes the experience feel rushed. Yeye really listens instead of defaulting to a generic haircut. She's easy to talk to, the conversation is always enjoyable, and I leave happy with the result every time. Great stylist, great person, and someone I'd confidently recommend to anyone looking for a new barber/stylist.
