Jillian really listens to her client and has great attention to detail. My very picky teen daughter was a satisfied customer!

I've been going to Jillian for a little over a year now and can finally say I've found my stylist! After hopping around since the pandemic, I can confidently say Jillian is the best. She works magic with color and has patiently helped me land on the perfect bob cut. What really sets her apart is how much she listens--she takes the time to understand what you want, your lifestyle, and what's realistic to maintain. She even factors in things like whether you've got young kids and less time to style your hair, which makes such a difference. She's personable, kind, no-drama, and I recommend her to everyone! read more

Jillian has been cutting my hair for years. She is amazing with curly hair! She listens and gives great suggestions when I don't know what I want. I always leave with a great cut that feels fantastic and grows out super well. She's also just a lovely person who is easy to work with. read more

I've been seeing Jillian for at least two decades now, and honestly, I can't imagine trusting anyone else with my hair. She just gets it -- she knows what works for me even when I'm not totally sure myself. Every time I leave her chair, I feel confident, refreshed, and like the best version of myself. I actually travel over 45 minutes from the city just to see her because she's that good. I've tried other stylists in the city when my schedule doesn't allow for the drive and I'm never happy with my hair. On top of being incredibly talented, she's also one of the kindest and most genuine people you'll ever meet. I'm so grateful to have found her all those years ago -- she's truly the best. read more

I came to Jillian shortly after another stylist from another salon BUTCHERED my bangs. I was devastated because I was going to a reunion party of sorts soon, and having messed up bangs is such a confidence-killer. She was very welcoming and talked with me about options for how to remediate the situation. She created a new beautiful way to frame my face, fixed my bangs COMPLETELY, and made me LOVE my hair again. I am extremely grateful for her work and impressed by her talent. You cannot put a price on feeling confident in your hair. 10/10 will be seeing Jillian again. read more

Jillian has been doing my hair for 15 years and she is truly an artist. I love the way she does cuts and color- she listens to what I want but also has great ideas to make subtle changes which I am always happy with. She is always up to date with all the current trends but knows how to make things look classic at the same time. She knows my hair type well and knows how to cut so that I can manage it easily and the cuts and color lasts and grow out nicely. I trust her completely! She is also a wonderful person and a joy to chat with. She did my hair for my wedding and it turned out just how I had hoped. I highly recommend Jillian to anyone who wants to make a change to their hair or just for upkeep. She is absolutely a gem! read more

I highly recommend! Five stars! read more

Jillian is not just my hair color and cut goddess, but she is also a neighbor. Once we met, the fact that she was a supremely trained stylist tempted me to put my double-processed platinum blonde head in her hands....well, she pulled through for me with flying colors (no pun intended) when my other beloved stylist was out of town at a crucial time in my roots' regrowth....Jillian has the maddest skillz and is brilliant at grace under pressure. She exudes quiet confidence and patience. Her eye contact and her devotion to her craft are key elements of her talent. I've seen her 3 times. I am a TOTAL fan. read more

I have gotten my hair done by Jillian three times now. She has done highlights, lowlights, trim and styling - and the latest was highlights with toner. I highly recommend her!!! She is so talented and always up on the hottest new trends and products. For the bay area and other competitive prices Jillian is SO the way to go!! :) read more

Jillian is awesome! I was referred to her at The Salon when I moved here from New York. I was happy with that first haircut and two years later, still happy! Everyone I've referred to her has also been happy. She's versatile and talented. Love her! read more

When I first moved to SF from LA... I was most worried about not having my hair stylist Josh. He worked at Goo and even did my hair for my wedding, so you could say I pretty much adored him. The moment I moved here, I called him and asked if he knew anyone in the area - thank god he did. I called Jillian and she was friendly and available on Sundays!! I can't express how amazing it is that she was open on a Sunday. Anyways, she had huge shoes to fill, and boy did she deliver! I have been to her 2 times already and need to see her in two weeks. She always hooks it up, takes time to really understand what you want, and I always love my color and cut. Last time I was very nervous to get bangs, but I am soooo glad I did. I haven't gotten this my compliments since my wedding day. Bottom line is Jillian is sweet, funky, and does a wonderful job! read more

Jillian is a fantastic stylist, she's good at both color and cuts and helped me pick a hip style that matched my personality and was low maintenance. My hubby also got his hair cut and he got many compliments at a party last night. read more

I absolutely love Jillian and her haircuts/color. I've been going to her for almost 3 years now and I am never disappointed. She knows my hair so well and I feel so refreshed and back to myself after visiting her. She has amazing talent and knows what works and looks good for my hair. I recommend her to all of my friends because I totally trust her and her work. She's the best! read more

I have very thick, coarse, curly hair so finding someone who can cut curly hair is very difficult. When I moved to California from Connecticut a year ago I was very concerned about finding someone who could cut curly hair. My friend Karen suggested Jillian could cut curly hair and she did such a wonderful job that she's been cutting my hair ever since. She knows exactly what to do with curly hair and how it shrinks up when it dries. I would definitely recommend Jillian for cutting any type of curly hair. read more

Jillian is the best. I came to her after I made the disastrous decision to cut all my hair off (pregnancy and post-pregnancy hormones make you do crazy things). Jillian helped me grow out my mullet into several awesome styles and now, two years later, my long hair is back! Jillian also showed me how to work my natural wave, breaking me free from the chains of blow drying. Did I mention she's an amazing colorist as well? read more

I love having Jillian cut my hair. She has given me probably the best haircut I've ever had! She's very personable and friendly and fun to talk with--but very focused and professional. She's really amazing--I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants to look their best! read more
