My review is for Ellie. I had more split ends after my appointment than I did before. She was very…read morequick with it which I did appreciate but it did affect the quality of my haircut. When she was washing my hair there was water streaming down my back and filling my ears. Once I sat down in her chair she started aggressively yanking at my tangled wet hair. I would not book a service with Ellie but that doesn't apply to the whole salon. Everyone else seems very professional and the vibe in the salon is relaxing.

My review is specifically for Elham. I have been going to her for almost 10 years now. My first…read morevisit with her was to help repair my hair from an awful highlight job done by another person. My hair had been completely burnt and was multiple colors. Given the fragile state of my hair, we decided to just color it back to the natural color and let it fully grow out overtime. I have been going to her ever since including following her to this new location. She is the only person who I trust to cut and highlight my hair that suits me. Some hairdressers have a tendency to do the same style across multiple people and that doesn't work. She knows exactly how to highlight my hair, touchup, and cut to frame my face perfectly. I am constantly receiving compliments on the healthiness of my hair and style, and a big part of that is because of the way she tends to hair so precisely. Can't recommend her enough.

I've been a happy client of the wonderful and talented Henry since 2016. I have referred many…read morefriends over the years and everyone, like me, loves Henry's technique and his personality even more. Truly a kind and caring person. For this review, I will highlight the experiences of both myself and my family. First, with me. I have chemical sensitivities and was trying to find a hairdresser that could provide less toxic hair color. Henry was up to the task, and always open to trying different lines until we found just the right one. He was so patient with me, letting me borrow samples so I could take them to my doctor to get tested. We had a lot of fun over the years, with highlights/purple pop color, and always red. Finding a red that lasts isn't easy, but Henry has that dialed in, too, along with natural, non-toxic support products and in-salon conditioning treatments. I've included some pictures of my styles over the years. As of 2020, I'm about 40% gray, and the color still works great! Henry offers a non-toxic root touchup (picture a big eye shadow container with a brush) that I use in between appointments, and it works great! Henry is so caring, sensitive to my needs, a great listener and a very talented colorist. In 2017 my daughter wanted to donate her hair to cancer patients. As you can imagine, after growing her hair for 10 years, this was a little bit of a stressful event. Of course, Henry made it all fun and was very kind to her. In between the COVID shut downs I got my fiancé in to see Henry. Wow, we both agree it's the best haircut he's ever had in his life! Thank you Henry for taking care of me, my family, and my friends. We look forward to seeing you again at the next reopening!

He's also great at color. Dan is so good that people think I don't have any gray hair!!! The color looks very natural which is exactly what I want. I have been going to Dan for at least 10 years and have followed him to different salons. He's at Fringe and Fern in Walnut Creek now which is a hair salon and plant store!! While it may seem like an odd combo, it's very relaxing to be surrounded by plants- it's an environment which I appreciate!! Dan is not only a great hair stylist- he's just an all around great guy!! He's smart and interesting to talk to. He's a great listener. He makes sure there's good music in the background. You can't go wrong with Dan!! PS My husband gets his haircut by Dan too!! And my husband looks great!!

Beyond amazing!!…read more Daniel is not only the most professional, approachable, and kindest stylist I've ever had, he's also the best at working with my hair. He takes the time to understand what you truly want, what your goals are, and how to make it happen. He's been doing my hair for 10+ years now, and I wouldn't trust anyone else to do it. Really, he's more of a sculptor than a hair stylist. Couldn't speak more highly of him - go check him out!

Its a long stretch for my fine, curly warm colored hair but I knew that if it was possible, Keely would use her magical artistry to pull it off - and if it wasn't she'd guide me to the best intersection between my dreams and my reality. Keely is an artist whose canvas is hair - and my results consistently for the 5 years that I have known her have always looked as if I was born with it. Even better, is being able to spend time with people you consider friends while getting beautiful. Keely and Danny run a warm, friendly business with a special one-client-at-a-time model that feels more like spending your day in a peaceful living room with your best friends. Your best hair with hospitality while you hang out with friends is just a phone call away.

I told him I wanted to refresh the highlights and add more. During the consultation, he expressed concerns about the condition of my hair and the ends, said my hair was too long, and repeatedly asked if I was sure I wanted to keep the length -- yes, I was sure. Despite his reservations, he said he could do the highlights, so I went ahead and scheduled an appointment for that Saturday. On the day of the appointment, I rushed from another commitment in Hayward to Lafayette just to make it in time. When I arrived, he asked me to wait -- I noticed he was ordering lunch. After a few minutes, he dusted off a chair still covered in hair from a previous client and had me sit down. Then we went through the exact same conversation from the consultation. He repeated how dry and damaged my hair and ends were, asked if I was really sure I wanted to keep all that length and still proceed, and explained his full process again. I told him yes, it's fine, I understand the risks of bleaching and won't get mad if my hair gets more damaged. About 15 minutes go by, he kept circling back -- asking who did my hair before, why I wasn't going back to her, and reiterating his discomfort with doing my hair. At this point, it was clear he didn't want to go through with it but wasn't willing to just say so directly. Eventually, I had to be the one to say it sounded like he wanted to reschedule -- and he immediately agreed. He then admitted he had been thinking of canceling and should have called me beforehand. I left feeling incredibly frustrated and disrespected. I had rearranged my plans to make time for this appointment and cancelled an appointment at another salon because Kelvin could see me sooner. If he wasn't comfortable doing my hair, he could've said so clearly from the beginning -- not wait until I showed up, then go in circles until I figured it out myself. This review isn't about the quality of his work, which I didn't get to experience, but about the lack of professionalism. I won't be returning.
