I've been searching for a salon in SF and finally found it with Mai at Hey Beautiful! You know that moment when you walk into a salon and you can just ~feel~ it? That was me when I strolled into Hey Beautiful. I've been an unfaithful customer going from salon to salon, which isn't good for anyone. The vibe at this salon is perfect - it's utilitarian and well-appointed, without the fussiness of a high-end place. Mai diligently asked me what I wanted, washed my hair, and trimmed it expertly. My thick mane was tamed beautifully and I left brimming with confidence. I highly recommend this place! read more

Quality: 2 Atmosphere and service: 2 Stylist: Hector Asked for long layers with curtain bangs and walked out with dramatic short layers which do not work with my partial balayage, as the top layer is now lighter than the rest of my hair. I was also left with one side of my bangs about an inch longer than the other. Got stood up after showing up for my appointment and should have taken that as my queue to find someone else. I understand that third-party scheduling systems don't always work well, but they shouldn't be used if they're not being checked regularly. The salon told me to keep waiting, with no luck after an hour. When I came in for the reschedule, the first thing my stylist did was try to detangle my waist-length hair with a fine-tooth comb from root to end. Should have taken that as the next red flag to get out. The rest of the appointment was spent listening to him complain about other clients and watching bits of hair fall into my lap that were far longer than expected. I really wanted to like this salon but unfortunately find it important to warn others before they experience something similar. read more

Hey Beautiful - The photo I showed my stylist vs what I walked out with. - Hair Salons Near Me - San Francisco, California

I have been here twice and been happy both times, both with the service and the prices. Note: they mainly accept Venmo, so make sure you have access to that. The first time was with Hector, who was very friendly and gave me a great haircut. The second time was with Yuzi, who did a color correction for me after getting highlights that weren't great from a different salon. Yuzi was very gentle and detail-oriented and was willing to put in the time to make sure my hair would remain healthy after so much dye. I will definitely come back here in the future! read more

Hey Beautiful - Color correction from Yuzi - Hair Salons Near Me - San Francisco, California

I've been here twice since it's so close to my apartment. I like that it's not crazy busy but still has a flow of regular customers coming and going. Ambiance: The space is minimal, cute, and clean. It has a relaxing atmosphere and it's quiet for the most part. Service: Henry did my nails one of the times and he is very friendly. The other ladies are also nice. Nails: Both times I went I got a gel manicure and regular pedicure. The first time was a bright blue color. I got a lot of compliments and loved the color. It was different for me and was so fun! The nails lasted 3+ weeks. The only downside was that they had cut my cuticles too closely on my big toe and it became red and irritated after. The second time was a bright orange color for the summer. One of my fingernails chipped less than a week after they were done. I went in and Henry fixed it with no extra cost. Super nice of him! He said if any of my nails chip again I can come in and they'll fix it for free. It did chip again in the same place, but since it was my 'in between' color (in between two events) I just left it. I don't love this salon but it's conveniently close to my place and the staff is super nice so I'll probably be coming back! read more

Avoid this place. They ruined my long blind hair. This is a former nail salon, all those 5 star reviews for nails and not hair services. read more

Really like this spot! The woman who did my regular manicure (should've gotten her name but I forgot to ask!) was really sweet and was very careful in a good way. Sometimes I feel like I'm asking a lot if I want my nails cut even shorter or filed more but she was so sweet and checked with me to make sure I liked it. She also recommended four coats since the color I chose was more sheer than I had initially expected They also offer tea and snacks when you sit down. ALSO they didn't charge for gel removal which is so great. Would recommend read more

Henry did an outstanding job with my new set of acrylics!! I had a set put on a little over a week ago at Co Be Salon (also on Polk.) Unfortunately half of the nails broke off and my nails were in poor condition. Henry took excellent care of me! He gently removed the remaining acrylics and meticulously groomed my nails. I will certainly be back to see Henry. read more

Hey Beautiful - End result! - Hair Salons Near Me - San Francisco, California

Why's it so dang hard to find a decent nail salon in SF? I'll admit I'm picky, having been spoiled by the plethora of options on the peninsula...but since moving to SF last year, I had yet to find a nail salon in my area (North Beach/Russian Hill/Marina) that could deliver consistent and satisfactory gel manis & pedis...that is until I tried Hey Beautiful. This place came highly recommended by a friend so I decided to give it a try a few months ago and I've yet to be disappointed. The staff is warm and welcoming, the owner is super accommodating and responsive over text, and the two nail techs I've tried--Cadia and Henry--are both stellar. Henry is METICULOUS. Not only does he listen to what you want and genuinely seeks to make you happy, he's also fast! Henry is my new fav. Thanks, Hey Beautiful! read more

I had some extra points on ClassPass and decided to redeem them here - and that was truthfully one of the best decisions I could have made. My husband got a haircut and we were in and out within 15 min with a solid haircut. Lee did a great job and certainly knew what he was doing! They had fun music on and let me sit in the other barber chair. 10/10 recommend! We would totally come back here for a haircut. read more

I am absolutely obsessed with this place. When you walk in they greet you with snacks and drinks. I got my lashes done so I had to call ahead but other services they also do walk in. I got the hybrid and I could not be happier. AND ON TOP OF THAT THEY PUT A BLANKET OVER ME WHILE I WAS LAYING THERE. Never had someone drape a blanket over me before that was not my immediate relative. It really gave me "at my granny house vibes" with the snacks and the blanket, I will be coming back for sure. read more

Update: now that my haircut has time to settle (2 wks) I have to admit that I'm feeling this is a low for me--the ends are choppy and blocky. It's thicker on one side vs another. I'm planning to schedule a new haircut at another salon to get this fixed. I hate leaving this feedback because the folks at Hey Beautiful were sweet. Manager seems like AAPI female so I want to support. But the haircut outcome from Lily just missed the mark for me. read more

The actual haircut didn't bring me to tears but I highly recommend the salon use quality, colored hair approved shampoo/conditioner instead of Pantene when charging $100 for a haircut. There are nice products lining the wall for purchase, so to wash my hair with bad quality products feels wrong. read more

Had the best experience today at Hey Beautiful with Hector! Right off the bat he was friendly, relatable, and energetic. I asked him to make me super blonde with a fun layered style without compromising too much length. He delivered!! Thankful for his thorough explanation on foil placements and different techniques throughout. I'll be back (: read more

Hey Beautiful - Blonde partial highlights + long hair cut - Hair Salons Near Me - San Francisco, California

Not sure why but SF nail salons when they cut cuticles swipe away at the edge when they shouldn't do that. Other than the techniques used here, the nail polish is good and it's not terribly overpriced. read more

I've walked by many times and today was my first visit to Hey Beautiful. I'm usually feel nervous going to a new nail salon (I got cut a couple times), but Henry put me at ease. He is professional and attentive, taking his time to cut and clean my cuticle. Also, I was able to pick a color without feeling rushed. Thanks Henry! Hey beautiful now is at the top of my list! I love their great services, and huge selection of colors, and nail art. I will definitely try cat eye next time! read more

Would definitely come here again! read more

Was on vacation and my son needed a cut since we didn't fit it in before our trip to San Francisco. The stylist was great!! My son has wavy, unmanageable hair but she knocked it out of the park and it's his but. It's hard to keep my son happy with haircuts but he was very pleased. Highly recommend this salon. A plus is the husband, Christian, gave me many restaurant locations he and his family go to. We went to a couple of them and had an amazing dining experience to boot!! read more

Amazing nail salon! I have been to almost all of the nail salons in the neighborhood since moving here a year ago, and this one has been my favorite by far. Henry did such an amazing job with my nails, making sure that the extensions were exactly how I wanted them and the design was exactly like the reference photo. He took his time with everything, I didn't feel like I was being rushed out of the salon which I have felt before at other places I've visited. Got a pedicure too and it looks amazing. Overall 10/10!! read more

I decided to try this for a haircut. It was suppose to be $25 with a 15% discount. The stylist's name was Thuy i believe. +2 friendly staff and it was clean. If you dont count the dirty fish task tucked away on the counter -1 took one hour to do a basic men's haircut. It really only takes 20 max. -1 not the haircut i exactly wanted and it got worse as she kept cutting . Like the more she cut, it was like she was trying to fix the problem. And at the end she asked "do you even like it?" Also whats funny is she doesnt know how to blend hair. -1 now all of that could have forgiven. And i could have had a bigger scale on Yelp, i would have given them -5. Again, the price was $25 + 15% off. Gave her a 40 (didnt tell her to keep any of the change because i would have tipped her) And she gives me 9 dollars back. Do the math there people. Overcharged me for a BAD haircut. read more

I went in as a last minute scheduled appointment and even changed my time and they still took me in. Henry did my nails and I have zero complaints. He was a perfectionist and truly made sure my nails were up to par and even did a beautiful design. I was offered green tea and everyone in this business had amazing hospitality. I will for sure be coming back here to get my nails done in the future and I recommend this place to anybody who's looking to get a great acrylic set with designs. read more

I got my gel mani from Henry and pedi from Lin. Both were very nice, but most importantly very good. This was the first time I didn't have my skin cut when my cuticles were being cleaned.
