    Third time!!! Vacation hair

    I was referred to Kaari Braids by my old braid shop now closed. I was really nervous because I don't gamble with my hair care and new people. Manti listened to what I wanted to look like, gave me hair growth tips, product suggestions and I left looking amazing. Since my first experience, I have returned for 2 more times. My hair is full, long and healthy. Thank you Manti you are really good at what you do!

    I got medium knotless box braids. As stated on the website they typically braid to mid back. I didn't want my hair to be that long but she coerced me into getting that length. I'm guessing to avoid lowering the price. I'm tender headed and knotless braids aren't supposed to hurt. I let her know I was tender headed yet she still was braiding too tight. That same night I woke up with my head pounding. The parts were rectangles not boxes. I developed a lot of tension bumps on my head because it was so tight. To make matters worse I lost A LOT of hair at take down. I will not be returning. Do better.

    I've been going to Kaari Braids Studio regularly since May. That was the first time I'd ever gotten braids in my life and Manty did a great job. She's friendly, easy to talk to, professional, and fair priced. I'm now a repeat customer and have referred a few friends and my wife along the way. Highly recommend.

    Manty is soo sweet, smart, and such a quick and skillful braider! I absolutely loved my session. We watched music videos and talked about things ranging from fashion to politics. I loved how we were able to find common ground in such a short time of getting to know each other. But my braids were soooo beautiful! I loved how she was so willing to try out my idea and even let me come back another day to add more details to it. I felt the pricing was fair and was super happy that she was able to work with my hair being short.

    This is what she did

    I've been here a few times and the stylists are great, but they double booked me and because I was…read morein a meeting all afternoon and rushed from work to make it on time, I didn't see that they cancelled my appointment until I was a block away from the salon. I get that mistakes happen sometimes and they did try to notify me, but they didn't apologize which was annoying, especially since their haircuts are pretty expensive. Hopefully they'll fix their booking system

    Loved this appointment! This salon is located near my old apartment and is very nice!…read more The salon is very neat, well lit, stocked with lots of products. This was my first appointment here and I was with the Hair Stylist Danielle. The appointment was long but I loved the amount of care and effort she put into cutting my hair. I wasn't rushed or anything! I had the sudden urge to cut off all my hair into a bob after seeing my current hair in a picture of me in the sun... My hair was BAD .. I could see the color difference between my natural hair growing out and the old bleached hair that I dyed a chocolate brown. I was panicked when I saw this in my picture... It was literally looking at two separate people's hair. YIKES.. Danielle saved the day! I usually have a tough time finding a good stylist but I'm glad I trusted Danielle with this transition from long to short hair. I've never cut my hair this short .. but I was happy about the results!! She did so well!! I loved it! I'll be back soon for a trim!! Glad I found BIBO Salon! Danielle saved the day!

He reached out for a conversation before I came in and I knew I was in good hands. And then I was BLOWN AWAY by what he was able to achieve!! I had expected it would take a few visits to get there. Justin knows hair!! There is a science and an art to color, especially for those of us wanting dimensional color. Justin has both expertise and artistry!! I'm just delighted. I want to also mention that the salon itself is lovely. Spacious and airy, with a sweet back patio. I loved the art, too. The whole experience was uplifting! Justin is easy to talk to, the vibes are chill. I'm including before and after photos in hopes that my review might help someone else in a similarly desperate situation. You can trust Justin at Salon 1500!! He's awesome!!

    5 Stars for Justin Lorenz! ***** I'm lucky enough to live right around the corner from the salon,…read moreand Justin has become my absolute go‑to for both haircut and color. He's incredibly accommodating, especially with my unpredictable work schedule and the constant juggle of being a mom. He always communicates clearly about his availability and somehow finds a way to make things work, even when I need a last‑minute rescue for a quick color or cut. Justin is not only professional but genuinely thoughtful in his approach. He asks great questions about what I need, offers helpful recommendations, and always makes sure we're on the same page before he starts. The cuts he's given me have been amazing, easy to manage, and perfect for someone who's always on the go. On top of all that, he's just a wonderful person. He's caring, a great listener, and creates such a comfortable, welcoming experience every time I'm in his chair. Honestly, these appointments make my days better.

From the moment we met, she made me feel comfortable, listened closely to what I wanted, and was incredibly responsive. Marilyn has the range to create everything from minimalistic looks to full glam, and I appreciated that she never pushed me in either direction. We found the perfect in-between, and during the trial, she patiently worked with me to tweak my makeup and try different hairstyles until it felt just right. Marilyn is also such a wonderful person. She's warm, easy to talk to, and made both the trial and my wedding morning feel calm and enjoyable. She's also part of a network of artists who can step in if something unexpected happens, which gave me extra peace of mind leading up to the big day. Marilyn an incredibly talented artist, and I feel so lucky she was the one who helped me get ready for my wedding day. Thanks Marilyn!

Pricy but worth it, I think I'll get a haircut with more layers next time for the price that is charged :) Would definitely come back, you can tell she is trained very well and really listens to what you want. So happy I found her salon because the last one I went to near Lake Merritt messed up my haircut pretty bad. Would recommend!
