I so badly wish I could write a fantastic review of Adrian and B Hair Love, but after one wonderful…read morecut, I had the two most unprofessional customer experiences I've had at any salon ever. I hesitated to post something critical of a small business, but this ultimately felt too important not to share. It's really hard to find someone who does curly cuts well, and I was so happy that my first experience with Adrian went so well! I live in Marin, about an hour from B Hair Love, but I didn't hesitate to book again. Unfortunately, the day of my second appointment, I got a text from Adrian just half an hour before it was scheduled for, telling me he was sick and needed to cancel. I was already on my way and had ordered dim sum to get a quick bite before the appointment. Despite my frustration about the late cancellation, it no longer made sense for me to drive the rest of the way just to get my lunch, and I offered that Adrian could pick up the pre-paid meal I had ordered. I know how miserable it feels to be sick and saw this as an opportunity to extend a kind as a gesture of support. I heard nothing back (even to say no thanks). The next day Adrian offered me an appointment for later that week, which I accepted, and again drove into SF. When I got to the salon, it was locked up and dark. I called multiple times, and texted, but didn't hear back. 10 minutes later, Adrian responded and had completely forgotten about our appointment. How much did NOT getting my haircut cost? + $50 in mileage + $19 in Golden Gate Bridge tolls + $30 in dim sum (not picked up) ---- = $99 + 4 hours of my time Oh, and I still had to find someone else to cut my hair (booked weeks out). I do hope that others have a better and more professional experience than I did, but needless to say, I've taken my business elsewhere.

I've had mid length and short cuts, I've had highlights, lowlights, balayage, and dare I say it ... gray coverage.
