I am new to this beautiful, chill salon & boutique. I met with Liza for a full highlight. I have aging, thin, highlighted hair. Liza listened to my concerns & asked me what I wanted to achieve. I trusted her and her recommendations. She took her time with the foils. As well as the shampoo, conditioner, toner & awesome head massage. I am absolutely thrilled with the results of the color, blowdry & style, Liza did an exceptional job. Highly recommend read more

I've come back to this salon since 2023 for color services and every time they are amazing! I saw Raquel today for all over dimensional color and she is an absolute master at her trade. I have naturally dark brown hair and had not been in for a year and a half, and Raquel put in work! I am so impressed with how bright she was able to get my over all hair, while also blending and keeping it very soft. Extremely talented and professional staff, it's a wonderful experience. read more

A cute shop for unique items. Definitely will find something and they have sales. Staff super helpful and they are local!

Stylists refuse to discuss pricing on the phone without an in person consultation. I walked in and asked the receptionist to have someone call me for pricing. She kept pressuring me to schedule. I was very clear I didn't want that. Reception called back (same person-unmistakable voice) and stated she was "going to schedule me" asking what time Thursday. I stated I needed a call to discuss pricing, as I stated in person a few hours earlier, she refused. I literally had to say goodbye and go elsewhere. read more

I booked a appointed with Gina for a blowout 80 dollars (but I had a coupon that she had passed out). On the morning of my appointed I got a call that she was sick. About a month later I booked another appointment and I had to cancel but it was the night before and I was charged for the appointment I never had and was going to use a coupon for. When I tried to reconcile the place said sorry it's our policy . Double standard for sure. Plus 80 dollars for a blow out? 4 extra dollars for a stupid other fee. read more

$1,000 for a service!!!!!! 6+ hours at the salon. Color. Wash. Color. Wash. Color. Wash. I needed an aspirin and a glass of wine just to get through it, my head hurt so badly! Oh, and just like any other Color Service, no matter what the cost, $60 or $1K, I'll have to get it redone in 5-weeks, when my roots start showing again! Ridiculous.....I was SHOCKED when they told me how much I owed at the counter! Turned out great, but NOT WORTH $1K every 5 weeks! read more

I had high expectations for this salon. Especially considering I was booked to get my hair done by the owner, Jayden herself. $240 for a CUT and a 5 min deep condition !!!!!!!that did not do anything at all to my hair. -Should have went to Fantastic Sam's Even worse when I returned Jayden said this was the cut I wanted, she said that about 4 times, then told me Od have to pay for a new one for her to correct it. read more

I'm obsessed with my hair, it exceeded my expectations! Gina is absolutely an artist, because from a couple pictures and after few minutes chatting she was able to capture my essence in this haircut. It completely fits my personality and flatters my face in an individual way. She understands hair very well and was so kind and helpful. In fact, the whole staff is really wonderful. Also love how open beautiful the space is! read more

Not sure where my previous review went - I had a pretty lengthy one. In any case, I spent ~$600 for only two visits here. Both times horrible. Just drove all the way to Santee to get my hair done and wow. I gave the Jayden Presleigh 2x too many chances. And my cut and color when I walked out the door were way better and under $300. I would avoid this salon at all costs - especially as apparently many others had just as bad of an experience. read more

Cory is such a wonderful hair stylist, he truly listens to your needs. His extremely talented at what he does. I've been a blonde for a little over 10 years and I've never had my hair be so healthy like it is right know I've been back to Corry for a little over a year now and I see a huge difference in my hair, it's longer, stronger and thicker. As a blond I haven't been able to get my hair to the length I have now without it braking right off. Thank you so much Jayden Presleigh Salon & my boy CORRY for always making my hair look AMAZING read more

I wasn't going to post a review about my experience until I saw this posted on Facebook. I came here and went to Raquel right before my birthday and gave her these pictures as inspo photos. I was quoted 500$ which was ok but my hair came out nothing like this & when I went to checkout the receptionist said 600$. That's fine, but I would've appreciated communication from the stylist. Anyways, I asked for a money piece in the front & instead I received a few highlights that weren't to the root so it looked grown out the day I got it done. I got nervous during the appointment when she was saying that she had to relearn how to do different highlight/color techniques to follow trends. It didn't inspire confidence and now after seeing this post that she's offering a 100$ model price for practice to do what I paid 600$ for, I'm upset. I also emphasized that I had been getting my hair healthy for a year & I was really happy with the length & thickness but for some reason she used thinning shears on me which made it look thinner & frizzy. I just don't feel like I was heard at all & that I was convinced into thinking that she was capable of giving me the look I showed in the photos rather than an all over basic highlight & choppy cut. read more

Jenna did my highlights and she was great. So personable and easygoing. They provided a phone charger too which was so sweet. The couches are sooo comfy and the boutique is so cute inside. The only thing that I'd say needs improving is the shampoo bowl to be more comfortable for patients necks. My neck was dying after the shampoo + toning process (even with Jenna trying to make it more comfortable). read more

Well that was fast! I fell in love with this store/salon and fell out of love just as fast! I highly value customer service and this place was rude and threatened to charge me for a free blowout coupon I was given. Because I was late for the blowout, even though I told them on the phone I was on the way. This weekend is unusual bc streets all over the city are randomly closed due to street improvements, and my car GPS system was not aware. So despite driving fast as I could without killing myself, finding ways around blocked streets, I was late for the blowout appointment. And the place was absolutely empty, but the receptionist and stylist (the two people in the store) turned me away. They were also going to charge me the price of the blowout but I protested. I recently posted on my socials about how cute this place looked and was planning on spending a nice bit of money here. NOT anymore! read more

After getting out of the hospital post surgery after life or death situation, I came here to get my blonde done but now have half my hair. Sadly the salon took away one of the last things I had left on my body that hadn't been destroyed by multiple surgeries & stroke. Double processed was confirmed by a dermatologist my hair scalp got burnt and now have bald patches. Pics attached. I tried to get help but the owner is unresponsive, as someone with disabilities this was nightmare. If anyone else has tips on what they did when hair fell out let me know, I tried to ask for help . The Assistant girl was new and was being trained on my head at my appointment. This broke my heart because the stylists were nice, one turned my hair gray but even after trying another one Stylist it was worse. i wish the manager would respond. read more

They only carry XS,S,M. The woman at the counter lied and said they carry all sizes for all ages . Avoid if you are a full figure woman .

So....I had really high hopes about coming here. I'll start with what I wanted to do. I wanted to cut about 4 inches to shoulder length and put silver highlights in my hair. My price range was 250-300. I had gone to a few places requesting an estimate with most places giving me a $350+ estimate with coming in multiple sessions, so total being 700+. When I got an estimate here I was told $265 and since I was going to cut it, it shouldn't be more than $265 with about a $50 range. So I was sold (as I had seen the stylists ig before) and scheduled an appointment. So comes my appointment. She wanted to do test strands to ensure she knew my hair and could give a better estimate which I was of course fine with. Then I was told $350 with the same range depending on how much product is used. At this point I had gone out of my way, left work early, etc.. I was invested. So 50$ more? Okay whatever. I thought well worst case it will be $400. So we go through the dying, and I was told over and over from the stylist she wasn't using as much product as she had thought. Soooo in my mind....this means we are staying in the comfortable $350 range. We get to the register. The stylist tells me a number of products from there salon that are musts for me (I'm not of fan of that tactic). But I get one, then I'm asked when to schedule my next appointment, so I do since I was told I'll need two sessions. The stylist walks away and then I am told I owe $486 ‍ for this one time. Note: that does include the shampoo they recommended. Which I would not have gotten had I known it was $100 over the estimate. I'm so shocked I say nothing, pay and walk out. In a very very uncomfortable moment I had no idea what to say. How I went from an initial estimate of 256$ to walk out spending $500 (with tip) I'm not sure. But I felt it was not a great move. I will not come back. I'm not sure if the stylist I saw didn't remember the initial estimate, but i felt manipulated to say the least. At no point did I ask to add more. At no point did I change the picture I initially showed at the $256 estimate. I suppose you can use your judgement with the facts. I know I know, it's an estimate. But keep in mind, I walked in *thinking I would spend half what I spent. I continued because I thought no way highlights for short hair would be more than 350$. Along with what I had already invested my time and effort. She also had included putting color over my natural red highlights which she didn't. So my hair has red and a very ugly yellow by my face. I am so beyond upset. I wouldnt be as upset if I loved the hair and she was upfront with me about the cost. But she wasn't. And to top it off the work is sloppy. There's lines of bleach that people keep pointing out, the back of my hair has what looks like inch roots, after ONE wash with their shampoo it was yellow. I do not recommend their junior stylist Anastasia. She will low ball you to get you in then double the estimate at the register. The definition of SHADY! read more

Do not bother coming here for anything. It's not worth it. The salon staff could care less about the clients. Completely unwelcoming, dismissive, and unprofessional. However, the worst part and main problem with this salon, and I want to emphasize this, IS THE SALON "OWNER/DESIGNER," RAQUEL. She is completely arrogant, unkind, brash, rude, demeaning and unprofessional, with the amazing ability (and probably the only talent of hers) to make you feel a million times WORSE about yourself after your experience at her salon, than before you even came in! Now that's impressive! She lies about prices, services, treats her Junior Talent Team like trash, and does not give a single care in the world about any client that walks through her salon doors. I will say my Junior Stylist was WONDERFUL. But due to the owner and rest of the staff, will never return to this salon and regret ever having been. You could literally go anywhere else in the world and receive better customer service, experience, and outcome of your hair compared to here. read more

Have been a customer twice now and the cost is outrageous with subpar outcomes. (And I'm used to spending a lot for my hair). I parked in front of the store today and say they had a placed a chalk sign out front that said ' 'why spend money for therapy when you can get your hair done .. we are good listeners too' . One should be supporting mental health ... not devaluing it. Therapy is more than about 'listening' and definitely a lot more to it than getting your hair done. Disrespectful all around. Not a good business model to put this in front of your store - clearly only money driven. Won't be back . read more

DISCLAIMER: I am not bashing the salon, I am writing an honest review about the ONE employee there that ruined my hair. I originally had medium length hair with a grown out balayage. I asked for SHOULDER length hair, and to update the balayage (as in bring it up a little higher and get rid of the brassiness.) Anastasia (the hair dresser) was super friendly and "understanding" of my likes and dislikes. We had full on conversations while she was doing my hair about how we BOTH hate: 1. Traditional highlights because they look stripey, and have a harsh grow out line. 2. When hair dressers cut off too much length. We also made it clear that we BOTH love the look of balayage because it looks like it's natural from the sun. * I also made it clear that my hair had to be clean cut and simple because my job (the MILITARY) doesn't allow me to have "faddish" hair* The appointment was going so well that I didnt even catch the red flags: 1. She put traditional foils in my hair and called them teasy lights. 2. She never showed me the back of my hair... I just assumed it looked good because every employee in the salon was complimenting me and she got a professional camera out and took a million pictures of it for social media. $265 later I left the salon. Immediately when I got inn the car I looked at my hair in the back.... I was horrified. She gave me a full on undyed boy cut on the entire backside but left a thin layer of blonde hair overtop of it; that layer didn't even match the length as the rest of it. We had literally discussed how I have extremely thin/fine hair, and how she cut it completely emphasized that! She added a million layers all over the place. It looks like I had long hair but it was caught on fire at the ends so they're completely choppy and DISGUSTING. On top off it all my hair actually overall turned out DARKER in color than what it was before.. I even washed out the toner immediately when I got home to see if I it would lighten it up but sadly it did nothing. I am absolutely mortified to go to work tomorrow. I can't even hide it with a mini ponytail, because the back side of my head is made up of 1inch long pieces. I've seen this business's work on a bunch of other people, they do AMAZING jobs, but unfortunately I missed out on a good experience and I am canceling my engagement photos now because I never want to look back on this awful ti read more

I would never recommend this salon for hair. Constant change over of staff-THEY don't stay. Owner Raquel never smiles, unfriendly & uses clients to train newly licensed ones on you. Takes too much time. If she or trainee makes mistake , refuses to correct. Also, Wants to charge you if you are late because parking is soo bad, but it's ok if she makes you wait. Owner Raquel can't keep staff except Korey. Please don't waste your money or time. read more

I received a gift card for my BD for this salon. My gifter said that if I didn't want to get my hair done there, I could get clothes, jewelry or have my nails done... seems like a thoughtful gift! After all, it does say "salon & spa"...there must be options. I went to use my gift card and was told I could only use if for hair services. They said the person getting the card was told this...but it doesn't make sense...he saw a huge salon & spa, with a lot of clothes and accessories and thought a gift card would be a nice gift because there were options...so, I don't think they made it clear. The problem is, I went to use it to buy clothes, candles, jewelery... but I can't use it for that, and they were not very helpful...they simply said if I find someone else that wants it for a cut and color, that I could call and they would transfer it to them. The reason why I didn't want to use it for hair services was because last time I was there my hair turned out horrible...I didn't want to tell them that...but really, I looked like a red headed skunk. They also told the person buying the gift card that I went there regularly because my name was in there data base...but then they should have been able to see that it had been 8 years ago, and told him so he didn't give them $300 for nothing. (the back of the card says it can be used for services or retail merchandise.) I am a long time Carlsbad resident and never write negative reviews...but this is not good business. read more
