Ky's Hair Design is the coolest hair salon I've ever been to. If I lived in Eureka, this is the only place I would ever get my hair done. Ky, the owner, is the one of the most amazing people I've ever met -- truly a beautiful soul. She told me I was beautiful 4 times, and I'm not even that beautiful :-). The building is also fantastic. It's a two dome, Star Wars style building built in the 70s. Ky bought it 18 years ago and has been working to improve it ever since. Definitely ask to see her incredible garden, she grows artichokes and brocoli and black berries and so many other plants -- it's like a little oasis. If the pear tree has fruit, she'll give you pears to take home! She also converted the garage behind the building into the most amazing AirBNB/VRBO I've ever stayed in, and I've stayed in some amazing LA Airbnb's (an Eagle Rock speak easy, a Silver Lake apartment where the photographer owners have a smart apartment with wooden built-ins they built themselves, Snow White's house in Ezay-aux-Rideau). She's done a fantastic job -- there's a sauna and a rainforest shower and a beautiful giant hot tub. The deck in the garden is an amazing place to sit and read. It's truly the best, stay there immediately. I cannot say enough good things about Ky and this place! read more

Ky is Great and her haircuts for the past 8 years have kept me looking sharp (subjectively-speaking). Now I take my son there also for haircuts. In October 2016 I came in with about 5 minutes before she was to close, but she stayed open another 20 minutes because I explained I had an important event that I needed to get "cleaned up" for. She worked her magic on my hair, and I asked her to stop as I was in a rush, but the next morning I decided I wanted it just a bit shorter on the sides so I returned to Ky. Without hesitation, she had me in a chair with a cape on, attending to my request (i.e., without additional fee- i have never previously gone back unsatisfied, so I was really impressed how she handled it). I don't go fishing for compliments, but when I went to the grocery store that day, no fewer than 3 people commented positively on my haircut. I think a good haircut like a well-fitting suit, can increase a man's self-confidence. If the clothes make the man, then the haircut at Ky's Hair Designs will certainly refine him. More than that though, I really appreciate Ky because of her positive energy. Thank you Ky! See you soon. read more

Ky is the absolute BEST! After watching some simple YouTube videos I decided I'd have no problem layering my own long, luxurious locks. I was horribly mistaken. I butchered my butt-crack-length hair into a choppy, lopsided abstraction and was told by every one of my girlfriends that to salvage it, I'd have to go really short. I don't have a problem with short, (I used to rock a pixie cut), but I've been growing my hair for years and I loved my length! Also, I was attending a wedding the following week where I'd be meeting all of my boyfriends buddies for the first time. While the idea of letting them believe that he was dating a sloppy, uncultured hillbilly sounded enticing, I preferred to look my best. Ky made that possible with an absolute miracle of a cut. Shear genius! Get it? If I could give her more than five stars I would. Probably eleven. -Libby (who still has long locks!) read more

Been there twice and about to go back for a third time. I'll be honest - I'm not sociable. So I can't make an effective comment towards her personality because my perception is skewed by my introverted outlook. However I can say that she was nice, and she did give me exactly what I wanted. I brought in photos of something similar to what I wanted the results to be and she was willing to work with me step by step, doing a little and then asking how it looked and then starting again and so forth, in order to provide me with a good outcome. I was skeptical because I have not always had an open mind to places that aren't mainstream, except perhaps in the case of restaurants, but I'm happy to say that I was wrong. Now it's very likely she's the only one I DO trust! For the record and general info, I went in for a men's cut. read more

Today, I had the pleasure of meeting Ky of KY's HairDesigns. She cut over 24 inches off. Ky was extremely easy to communicate with & gave me the exact hair style I requested. I would recommend her to anyone who is wanting a haircut. I'm just bummed I didn't make an appointment with her sooner. The second photo is Ky posing by all the hair she chopped off. The long pile is the pile she is saving to donate to be made into wigs. I could have spent my entire afternoon just chatting with her as I feel like I made a new friend. Not only is she wonderful & personable, she has over 41 years of experience honing her craft all over the world. I'm looking forward to our next service. Thank you so much Ky! I love my new cut! read more

I ended up coming to Ky because I needed my hair done right then and there because I work 8 to 5 all week. I live an hour drive away from nearest salon. Every Salon either didn't take New customers or was booked out 2 weeks. She took me right in and I got a thinned/layered and highlights. My hair is very thick. Everyone salon I have been to I have never come out happy. Nobody knows how to cut thick hair. But now Ky is the only salon I go to. Yes she charges steep but you pay for quality. She has been cutting hair for almost 19 yrs. That is a life time I have never met someone who has loved what they do like her. I will never go to another salon again. read more

Long time user, first time reviewer! I've gone here twice now and have been super happy with both. She has experience that few I've found up here have. Hair cuts both times, one trim and the other a more dramatic change. She was fairly quick but still did a great job which makes getting a hair cut bearable (I'm not a fan of those two hour haircuts that go on forever... there's only so much small talk someone can take). She didn't try and sell me products which I really appreciated but was still very knowledgeable. I appreciated her perspective as she took into account my life factors and found it to be a great experience. read more

Ky is an amazing person, she is the owner, operator and sole employee of the salon. She did do a wonderful job on both of my children's haircuts. She was fast, confident and efficient, and the kids look great. We did have an appointment, which I am not sure was recorded, so walk-in might be the best way to get in, or maybe a same day appointment. Her prices were not listed in the room, so she quoted me upon assessing her workload. I do think her prices were a little high, but she is a lone soldier and I can make exceptions if the haircut is great, which I believe they both were. read more

I went in for a simple hair colouring and left completely devastated. My hair was left with uneven, white-blonde streaks I never asked for, and it's now dry, brittle, and breaking off. The stylist clearly didn't understand what I wanted or how to handle my hair properly. When I later expressed how unhappy I was, there was no apology, no offer to fix the problem, and no refund. I've had to spend even more money trying to repair the damage at another salon. Very disappointed with both the service and the attitude. If you care about your hair, I'd strongly suggest going elsewhere. read more

Ky's Hair Designs offers fantastic service and professional haircuts at reasonable prices. I started going to Ky 6 years ago when I had first graduated college and needed to start looking more professional. The local barbershops weren't cutting it for me. They either offered inconsistent results, or were unavailable for new appointments. Ky has never deviated from giving quality haircuts in my 6 years going there, and what's more She takes walk-ins 7 days a week. If you are looking for your new stylist or barber look no further because Ky can do it all. read more

From the beginning, Ky listened to what I wanted and got to know me and my lifestyle and how my hair reflects that. I have fine, thin hair. She cuts hair dry, which I was wary of at first, but I'll tell ya, she consistently gives an excellent cut. It is short, but feminine. It took a little while to get the color just right, and now she remembers what I like. I appreciate how she worked through this with me. She really wants her customers to be happy. After years of international experience, we are lucky that Ky settled here in Eureka at the Domes. read more

My boyfriend really needed a haircut after work and the hairdresser said come on in! It was really nice that she had us even with such short notice (: we got there and right away she was very friendly and helpful and made us both feel very welcome. My boyfriends hair is very thick and curly and still she did such an amazing job! She cut it fast and made him look super handsome. We both really like the haircut. Price was more than reasonable and overall this was an awesome experience for both me and my boyfriend. We will definitely be back! read more

Ky is a very talented, experienced hair artist! In this area there's alot of hairdressers because we have a beautician school, but it is still difficult to get a "good" haircutter. I got one of those bad haircuts this week...I took a chance and called Ky (because I've always wanted to see the inside of the domes) she took me right in and put me at ease. It was obvious as soon as I sat down that she knew what she was doing. Long story short - Ky fixed my bad cut, made me look 5 years younger and is worth the money. read more

I have never been able to find a hair stylist who can do anything to make this mop of mine grow out properly--I mostly go to barbers for a whack-job. But during the last couple of years of going to Ky's Hair Designs, I am finally able to manage my hair in a way that is both low-maintenance and still looks good. I don't really want to fuss about my hair too much and Ky has a fine-tuned sense of style. She is the most trustworthy stylist I have come into contact with. I feel comfortable giving her shop 5 stars. read more

I have been going here since I was 7 years old. Ky is very friendly and does a great job at dying hair. I only go here because she uses very good products that do not damage hair. I have had my hair dyed at other places and my hair was fried for a long time and I have never had this experience at Ky's. Ky does an excellent job at cutting my hair and listens to what I want. She gives input, but never forces you to do anything you do not want done to your hair. My whole family goes here and will continue to. read more

Ms. Ky alway's does a good job for a fair price. She's cool and knows what to do to give you what you want. I have tried other barbers' and hair stylists in this county and will only give my business to Ms. Ky. Don't let the low-ball reviews fool you, they more than likely tried to stiff her for money for service-rendered. Friendly atmosphere, always accepts walk-ins, $20 and you're out the door. Can't beat that. Go see her and findout for yourself. read more

I called on a whim to see if I could get an appointment-was able to get a same day appointment. Ky listened to what I was hoping to achieve, we discussed pricing before anything happened. She was funny, kind and so very helpful. Ky was my expert and I had a wonderful experience. I had color, cut, wash, deep conditioner, highlights and eyebrow wax--felt like a million dollars when I walked out of her shop! Will definitely return. read more

Ky is an amazing stylist, I wear my hair in a short and sassy asymetrical cut and I get so many compliments on my hair. Ky is experienced and does a fantastic job of not only the current styles but the classics! She is also very sweet and easy to talk with. Very fun woman to be around, is happy and always in a great mood. I am a professional woman who has lived in this area for years and she is the best stylist I have found. read more

This is my first yelp review; because KY hair solon is just that good. I had to get a haircut for wedding, freaking out on not knowing what to do with my stressed out dew, she changed my life. I walked away feeling confident with every compliment and reassurance my hair received, until my next appointment. KY is world renowned stylist whos reassuring experience, passion, and joy she has for her haircuts; it's her playground. read more
