I've been seeing Carrie Podrup since October and I'll never go anywhere else!! The first photo is…read morewhat we did for the first few months, the second is from yesterday, pulling some more blonde through the top and red through the bottom. I'm in love with it!! On Carrie's advice I went back to see Nicole Hayes for my brows, which have needed some help these last few years and I'm so glad I did. She sculpted and tinted my brows perfectly, cannot wait for my next appointment!

I would strongly advise no one to support this hair salon because the owner is extremely deceptive!…read moreFor example: she first informed me that she was in business for over 10 years. Making me believe she is trust worthy throughout our conversation she talked about her credit rating so on and so forth. therefore, I trusted her with my Human hair that I had purchased for $1000.00 and gave her the money to create my unit for $470.00. However, immediately after she received the hair and money she began to change on me, the very next day. All of a sudden, her grandmother was not only ill but had died and she was now preparing for a funeral. Moreover, she couldn't provide the unit in the time limit we initially agreed upon as previously stated. When I began to clearly notice this was a ploy, I demanded my money and hair back. I waited in the shop for 8 hours until she came back at the end of the day. She was furious! She gave me the money back however she kept part of my hair. Keep in mind! I do not know this person. it was now dark, and she tried to go unnoticed. However, I demanded my hair back When I tried to reach out to get my hair, she tried to stab me with her scissors on the porch area; I immediately pulled my arm back! I left with part of my hair and all of my money back. I had to threaten to call the police. Most importantly, there were two other hair stylist(s) in the salon, who watched everything but did not say or do anything. BUYER'S BEAWARE OF THIS HAIR STYLIST, she is small in stature and has an unnatural unassuming demeanor. However, SHE IS DANGEROUSLY DECEPTIVE WITH AN INTELLIGENT SMILE ON HER FACE! :(

Natalie is THE BEST. She fixed a bad haircut I had from a different salon and gave me exactly what…read moreI wanted, even though I didn't have a great photo reference and explained it poorly. She just *gets* hair and what looks good on people. She's really really good and really fast!! Perfect combo! She's also just great to talk to, really professional but fun! I'm from DC, so I expect very high quality when getting my hair done. I was really worried I wouldn't find someone who met my high expectations, but i was wrong! Natalie is my (new) girl! I met one of her clients who drives all the way from LA to see her! That's the sign of a great stylist. I recommended a friend of mine to her as well who became a repeat customer and said Natalie was one of the best colorists she's ever had! If you don't live in Mira Mesa, she's worth the drive! I know I'll be going to her wherever in SD I live.

THE STYLIST: Natalie I found out about her through a friend…read moreand I've been seeing her for about 3-4 years now. She's great because she's realistic and honest. You tell her what you want and she will tell you how your particular hair will react to it. Not only that- she will train you on how to do what you want on your own at home and what tools you'll need. Her vibes are genuine. She knows what she's doing and she works hard. You can trust this woman and her professionalism. Her intuition is keen and she will utilize it to gauge your wants and desires so that you walk out of the salon feeling like a confident new person. In addition, the atmosphere of the salon is relaxing. Parking is easy. Has beverages, snacks and coffee. It's just the right size: clean, and so chic. I'd recommend this salon and Natalie to anyone.

I'm delighted to have found Lorena again at Salon Republic (401) in Escondido's North County Mall,…read morejust across from Target and next to CPK. She evened out my color. (It was uneven and worn out.) She updated the color. (It was too light for my skin tone.) She gave me a perfect updated style and did it as a perfect price point in her private but well-lit area complete with treats and great conversation. A!

Thank goodness for Lorena! She's the best; I actually changed salons just so I could continue…read morehaving her take care of my hair. Yes, you have to drive out to Poway; yes, it's worth it. It's located in Phenix Salons (probably misspelling that), which is a setup where a number of different stylists each has his/her own room. So, your hair is washed, colored, styled, etc. all in the same room. The whole building is nicely maintained, and Lorena's spot is cute and tidy. She has plenty of drinks available and is so friendly! Lorena listens to what you say but also gives suggestions for what she thinks would work for you. I'm so finicky about who I let cut my hair (it grows painfully slow, so a bad haircut lasts a long time), but Lorena has always done a fabulous job. This was my first time seeing her at this salon, and she's using a new Keratin treatment that so far I'm very happy with. My hair is smooth, soft, and everything I was hoping for it to be.

Just an update to her location. Be is currently at the Selfie Salon in Rancho Penasquitos and…read moredoing a great job on hair! [Kim's Nail Salon was sold (her original salon in Sabre Springs), and the new owner (who didn't want a hair salon competing with his business) wasn't aware of how much traffic Be's hair business brought into the nail salon, when he "let her go".] By the time the new nail owner figured out what Be brought to both businesses, she had already moved to her current salon (Selfie Salon, 9883 Carmel Mtn. Rd), a few doors down from the Stater Brothers Grocery Store. Selfie Salon is a VERY busy salon, so plan ahead because there are only 3 seats for waiting. I would suggest you schedule your appointment with her direct line. (There are benches outside.) The shop's number is (858) 829-2055. I concur that Be is GREAT with color!
