I really wanted to keep volume at my ends while getting rid of the thinned out pieces and Anna totally understood my vision. I appreciated her asking if I usually tie my hair up and suggested cutting the face framing pieces to where it's long enough to tie up. It's the little details like that which made a huge difference! Anna herself is so personable, warm, kind, and so easy to chat with. Her salon is clean and has beautiful natural lighting.

A week before the appointment I confirmed the appointment online and via text directly to the stylist. She asked if i had any inspo pics and I said I would look for one before the appointment. The night before my appointment, after not hearing from Chloe for a week, i got a threatening message basically telling me that because i have been unresponsive to multiple attempts to connect, if i didn't respond immediately my appointment would be given to someone else who has requested that time. I want to be very clear that I never missed a text from her and sent her screen shots and asked her what messages i missed, to which she back tracked and started saying that she was just nervous because people cancel a lot. The stylist and/or salon never communicated that inspiration pics were a requirements of booking the appointment. The stylist never followed up post confirming the appointment, not once. The stylist was really unprofessional in the way she engaged me, and end of day I told her to go ahead and give the appointment to someone else, I'll spend my money at a professional establishment. Really disappointing given i've been waiting for this appointment.

I previously went to a different salon and unfortunately their balayage they performed on me left me with broken, choppy ends on one side and brassy hair.

I also appreciated that the appointment didn't take forever and there weren't a million questions. It was simple, straightforward and relaxing -- just a good haircut at a fair price.

I have been a client / customer of Vicky Pham for the past 10 years. Vicky is by far one of the best hair professionals and stylists I have ever had. Vicky is the former owner of Golden Hair Care on Poway Road, and has since re-located to 12935 Pomerado Road. Vicky is extremely knowledgeable, has over 18 years of experience, and is very customer-service oriented. She knows all aspects of hair care, and even does waxing and threading! Vicky's client base includes all genders and age groups, and her prices are more than reasonable. I highly recommend giving Vicky a call at #619-787-9627 to make an appointment. Vicky is outstanding and is one of the most honest people in the business. read more

I've been getting haircuts from Vicky (Cô Ngc to her Vietnamese-speaking clients) throughout high school and college. She's helped me through all my needs: highlights, treatments, prom updos, waxing eyebrows, fixing bad haircuts that I got from other places, and regular trims to maintain my shoulder-length long bob now. She offers style suggestions based on your fashion sense / face structure / sense of adventure, but always takes the time to follow what you want. Great service and warm conversations every time I stop by - I'll keep coming back for a long time. read more
