Jen makes magic in your hair! I've been getting my hair cut by Jen for 10 years, and more recently when my naturally blonde hair started getting a bit darker, as I've gotten older (thanks 30), she has started lightly lightening and brightening my hair to make me feel more like how it was 10 years ago! (Shh don't tell, most people who know me think it's still 100% me lol). Jen really takes the time to ask questions and really hone in what you're going for. In other words, she speaks hair and can translate what you want and she knows what works and what won't with your type of hair. She is also a true artist when it comes to hand painting balayage for such perfect and natural placement! Not only that but she is just a wonderful and kind person to be around, she takes care of you from the moment you sit down in her chair - She really knows and cares for all of her clients! I have also worked alongside Jen for wedding morning beauty and I can tell you how beautiful her wedding hairstyles and updos are and how wonderful and caring she is to our bridal clients, making sure they have eaten, checking in, and just calming the room when needed! As an added bonus the salon she is in, Maven & Co, is in a great location in downtown Pleasanton and is super cute! read more

Jen has been doing my hair for about 3 years now & honestly can't imagine trusting my hair with anyone else!! I naturally have cool brunette, curly hair: We've done blonde, chocolate, cinnamon & a ton more colors. she's always created what I wanted (which is never the same thing twice) As a person she is so sweet! Great at making you feel comfortable in her chair & making sure you're all taken care of. To other Curlies: I've always been concerned about how coloring could damage my curls so when I first came to Jen she broke down how we could strategically place color to get the end result I wanted without actually coloring my whole head & even helped me figure out what protein masks I should do afterwards! When I explained my fear of wet cuts she was super understanding & has NEVER tried to cut it wet (a level of flexibility & respect I never found outside a curly salon before) . She's honestly a dream stylist couldn't recommend her enough. The pictures span 2017- 3 weeks ago! read more

Jen is the BEST! I have been going to her basically since the beginning of her career, for about ten years now, and wouldn't think to go to anyone else ever! No matter what crazy idea I have come in with, or if it was a day I said "do what you want with me!" I have always LOVED the results. From going dark, going light, to going pink, from chopping my hair to growing it out, she does a beautiful job every single time. I am so thankful to her not just because of her expertise in what she does but because she is the kind of person you can sit with for hours in a salon, given what yours doing, and genuinely enjoy your time spent there. She is so easy to talk to, laugh with and feel completely connected! I couldn't recommend her enough to anyone and everyone! She absolutely is a maven of her craft! Below are a few examples of her work read more

There's actually magic in her hands. I've been going to Jen for about 6 years, and through varying trends and coloring styles, she always sends me home happy. When it comes to balayage she is truly an artist. She listens to what I want and then seems to create a better version of it by the end of the appointment. Skills and talent aside, Jen is also just a plain old pleasant person to be around - she's sweet and genuine - as is the rest of the Maven&Co salon. Not your typical catty hair salon in any sense. read more

Jen is truly a hair genius! She did hair for myself and my nine bridesmaids back in 2013, and since then she has not only become the only stylist I will ever go to, but has also done hair for several of my friends' weddings who were amazed by her work. When I visit Jen's chair, I am confident she will know exactly what to do to make my hair feel fresh and new. I always leave with a smile on my face and get tons of compliments in the weeks following my appointments! It is so nice to have a stylist I can trust 100%! read more

I met Jen at a bridal fair. She did my wedding hair and I've never been to anyone else since! She always has the best recommendations for what to do and even when I just want my boring, regular ol' mom cut, I still leave feeling beautiful and special. She talks to me like we're best friends which is therapeutic. Best of all, I have two daughters now and Jen cuts their hair too. She is so good with them because not only is she a stylist, she's an amazing mom too! read more

It only took me 37 years, but I finally found my hair gal! As soon as I met Jen, I just knew it was going to be a great experience. I always feel so intimated meeting a new stylist and going into a new salon, but not with Jen. She has this wonderful effervescence radiating from her where, when she tells you that she wants to give you happy hair and make you feel like a goddess, you know she's means it 100% with all of her heart. She is so authentically lovely, she truly cares about whomever is in her chair and I could feel that from her during the whole process. In regards to her cut and color, I am not exaggerating when I say you will be speechless with how gorgeous you look. I felt so damn sexy! She really listened to me and what I wanted, but she is so crazy knowledgeable about everything, she also gave me great suggestions to help the cut and color bring out the beauty I already had. I have always had a deep side part, and she is the FIRST stylist who has actually cut my hair with my real part. Every other stylist, every single one, would part my hair in the middle and then cut it, leaving my hair lopsided. Thank you, Jen! Thank you for seeing me for who I was and taking it all to the next level. I look forward to years upon years of happy hair with you! read more

Jen is amazing! She takes her time to find out exactly what I'd like my hair to look like. Though, I often just tell her to do what she wants with it because it always comes out fabulous! It's a wonderful feeling to have complete trust in her and to know that she will always make my hair look amazing! She even did my daughters very first haircut before family pictures last year. My daughter felt like a princess, and even left with a beautiful "Elsa" braid! I can't recommend Jen enough! read more

Jen is literally the best! She truly gets to know your hair and how to cut, color and style it correctly! She listened to your wants/needs and elevates the idea you have into something more fantastic than you could have imagined. She's also kind and such a wonderful person. She's been my hair dresser for years and I couldn't imagine anyone else doing my hair. read more

Jennifer Hatcher Hair - My haircut, color & style - Hair Stylists Near Me - Pleasanton, California

If I could give Jen 10 stars, I would. She is amaaaaazing! Not just as a stylist, but also as a person. I started going to Jen about 5 years ago as she fixed a balayage that I wasn't happy with. When I sat in her chair, she looked at my hair and knew exactly what I was trying to achieve--but did it 10x's better than I had imagined. My hair is very fine and shows every little imperfection because it's so straight. She really works her magic and is the only person I trust with my hair. I've had my fair share of horrible color and haircuts and as long as Jen is around, nobody else will touch my hair but her! :) What I also appreciate about Jen is her extensive training. Her salon holds training sessions often (which they'll feature in their instagram stories) so you know she's up on the latest and greatest. She also has a wealth of knowledge around products and chooses the best for her clients based on their hair type (because everyone's hair is so unique...it's really not a "one size fits all"). I mentioned that Jen is an amazing person...she really is! I really look forward to my sessions with her because we have such rich and fun conversations. She's so down-to-earth and relatable. You can't go wrong with Jen!! #happyhair read more

I first started my hair journey with Jen with my wedding hair almost 8 years ago. Back then I was salon hopper, I had moved back to Bay Area and didn't have a place or person that felt like hair home. There are many hair stylists out there but Jen Hatcher changed my hopping ways. I think of her like my hair doctor. Not only does she give you great hair and is basically therapy for your soul every time you sit in her chair, but she's a trusted professional. She went from being just my hair stylist to my whole family's. I know she has my best interest at heart and will make my family and I look good. My husband's hair is tricky and never had a good consistent cut until he started going to Jen and now he refuses to get his hair cut by anyone else. She's the only one I trusted to give my precious baby his first haircut and every hair cut after. Basically, she's the best and I feel lucky to be one of her clients. read more

Several years ago, I had a terrible color experience that turned my Dark Brown/black hair carrot orange. I was traumatized and stopped coloring my hair for almost two years. When I was ready I asked a friend (gorgeous redhead) who did her hair and she referred me to Jen. She is truly a magician with color and a pair of scissors! Sitting in her chair is a treat that begins with feeling safe! I usually come in wanting to do something a little different every single time and she honors my requests. She uses her expertise to send me out feeling truly confident and beautiful! She is magic personified! Oh and did I mention her kindness and calming presence are such a treat every 6-8 weeks! read more

If you want a major confidence boost, Jen is your girl! Every time I leave her chair I feel like a new person. She is the most talented in the biz and is always up to date on the latest trends and techniques. My balayage she did for me pre covid shut down lasted ALL these months (people were still asking me if I just had my hair done!) She listens to all your hair goals and is knows exactly what will work for your hair. She's kind hearted, passionate about what she does, easy to talk to, and professional! What else could you ask for?! She's an absolute gem, and will leave you feeling like a million bucks! LOVE her!! read more

Jen is AMAZING!! I first met her when I found her through my wedding venue's vendor list for hair in 2015. I had a consultation with her and I immediately fell in love with how she both colored and styled my hair.. After my wedding, I made her my regular hair stylist because I loved it so much. I drive 50 minutes just to get my hair done by her. I've now been getting my hair done by her for 5 years. I have long and thick curly hair which isn't easy to manage but she does magic making it all look effortless. My hair looks absolutely beautiful every time. Recently she also did my hair for my maternity shoot, and it looked amazing. I am so lucky to have found her. I get so many compliments on my color and have recommended her every time. Not only is she extremely talented but she is such an incredible person who truly cares about each and every one of her clients, and I just absolutely love her! read more
