Mane + Skin is such a cute salon! I've been going to Ciara once a year for almost 7 years now, back when Mane was "Alchemy" and when Ciara was at Mirror Mirror in Morgan Hill. The salon itself is clean, the girls who work there are all friendly, and you can't go wrong with any of the hairstylists there. Ciara is my go-to and always will be while she's still local, but Mane + Skin is a solid spot for a more luxury cut and color where you'll leave feeling great and having healthy, gorgeous hair! Regardless of where I've lived, I've always made the drive down to see Painted Hair by Ciara specifically at this salon, because she does a phenomenal job every time. My hair looks and feels great after seeing her, she listens to what I ask for, and the colors the girls use LAST a long time. I can go 8-9 months after my appointment before it really starts to fade, and I can get away with my one-a-year treat to go see her in the Spring or Summer time. Definitely a top salon in the area where you can't really go wrong with any stylist! read more

Review is for Starr. Found her on IG, her pictures seemed fair, reasonable work especially for Gilroy! It's been hard finding a good local stylist. I went the first time for all over highlights and touch up. She doesn't talk or have a bubbly personality, complete different experience. Long story short, I left with a bad blow dry, barely any product and tons of fly aways. I get home and the highlight is HORRIBLE. The top of my head looks like a leopard, no blend to my root whatsoever. I messaged Starr the next day and she agreed to fix it. Again the process was very fast and she tells me she can't blow dry. If it don't look right to go back. I leave the salon with my head drenched, only to come home and see the product still on my scalp and the problem still visible. At that point I didn't bother to call her back. I went back to my hair dresser to correct the problem. I would not go back. In my experience, she lacks experience, needs more training & customer service skills. The salon is decent, could be better. read more

Mane and Skin - The salon asked me to remove my review so the business didn't suffer. No apology or effort to make something right. Rude. - Hair Salons Near Me - Morgan Hill, California

After trying to hold out for months until I could find a good chunk of time to go to regular stylist in San Jose, my schedule just didn't allow it, so I started my search for a local salon and stylist. Being new to the area, I looked to Yelp to guide me to the right salon and stylist. Glad I did because it led me here and to Mel! I've seen her twice now and both times she's proven she is a pro in her craft. She's also incredibly nice and down to Earth which makes conversation easy and super low pressure. The salon itself is beautiful and well maintained. The other stylists are very nice and you can tell the atmosphere is a good one! read more

I booked online with Starr, she responded to me super fast and we discussed pricing and details. The shop is so nice and the staff i got to meet that day we're all the sweetest. Starr had a lot on her hands as my hair was very long, thick and yes.... I had some box dye on it (don't do that people lol) before she was even done i was so happy! I love her work, i had been obsessing over her IG and other clients photos, but to see her give my hair the look i wanted- speechless. Being new to the area i was very nervous but within minutes i knew i was in the best chair around! Thanks for your hard work Starr! read more

Mane and Skin - I love my hair! - Hair Salons Near Me - Morgan Hill, California

This is just a review for the hair stylist Starr Fries: I've known her since middle school so I thought I'd go and support her! I love the way she did my hair and I thought she would be equally as gifted in extensions. I was so wrong. She bought the wrong hair extensions color, ignored my concerns, my hair extensions did not blend, and she actually trimmed down my real hair to the point where it looks horrible without extensions! Plus she would ignore my initiations to start a conversation to talk with her stylist friends. Completely unprofessional. I went to her three times to try and fix her mistakes. Then when I was upset that the final results wasn't what I wanted, she just cancelled my appointment. I spent more than $1800 on the extensions and her attempts to correct her mistakes. I'm just sad it had to end in this way. read more

Attached below is a photo of lashes after a lash lift at Alchemy. I am pretty dissapointed with the service and when I contacted sam about this, She made it clear that she doesn't do refunds but would attempt to lift them again or give a portion back for her time and not product used. I decided it wasnt worth it to return to this place. I also scheduled my appointment 5 days in advance. The day of my appointment, she messaged me an hour before the service asking to reschedule. I live in Monterey so an hour notice is clearly not enough time. Anyway, I read her message once I reached Gilroy and explained to her my situation. She agreed to not cancel and take me in. I did not think there was anything outstanding about this place. 5 star reviews are misleading. read more

I went in for an ultimate blonding service and a hair cut and I was so pleased with the results! This was my first time getting this service and I was also cutting off some length and making a huge change. Justina was my stylist and she made me feel comfortable about the drastic change i was about to undergo. She took her time and I was impressed by her coloring expertise and the confidence she had in her abilities and her artistry with blonding and cutting. I felt so beautiful and confident when she was finished I couldn't stop smiling and looking at myself in the mirror! The salon was clean and decorated nicely with mounted plants. I was offered coffee and was welcomed by Justina, Sam the owner and the other stylists working. It was a wonderful experience and I will be going back! Thank you so much Mane and Skin for a lovely experience! read more

Love this cute spot. Got a haircut for my daughter and myself and we had good experiences both times. Mel did a great job.

Had a wonderful experience her yesterday! I booked online and came in as a new client, and I could not be happier with how my hair turned out. Becca did a great job in communicating with me to figure out exactly what I wanted, and she did not disappoint. I walked out feeling like a whole new person, and since getting home yesterday I have not stopped going "oh my gosh i love my hair" every five minutes. read more

Salma did an amazing job on my hair. I am so happy with my hair now. She is the first one to actually help me with my hair. While doing my hair she would explain why she is doing the thing she was doing. I got a scalp detox, conditioning treatment, and a hair cut. I would definitely recommend her. I will keep going to her. Thank you Salma. read more

I don't recommend this place. I won't go into the whole ordeal and rather leave the girls name out that did such a horrible job because she did refund most of my money. She missed the top of my hair for highlights, bottom half was a pretty color but not what I asked for. She tried to fix it but the top was redish, I would call it strawberry. And it was blotched. She used a gold toner when I asked for ash. Sam owns this place? She needs to show some respect . She really pushed my buttons and the reason I decided to wright this review. I'm a really pretty ash blonde now because I went somewhere else to have it fixed and got a very professional young lady that did a great job. I was in tears when I got home from Alchemy. read more

Never felt so out of place. The lady who cut my hair did a good job, but I can feel the vibe from all the other ladies that I wasn't their target audience. Felt like they stared in question as in to what I was doing there. I asked a price about there hair products on the wall & I can tell from the body language of the lady that she was bothered because I asked. I was ready to cash out on new hair products but oh well. I go to a hair salon wanting relax not having to be on edge. read more

Ashley is such a talented stylist! She does EXACTLY what I ask for and has AMAZING recommendations based on what you want and your hair needs. I started going to her a few years ago when she graduated and I'll never look for another stylist. I love the way she colors my hair, it has so much dimension and it is blended perfectly. My hair cuts have gone so smoothly ever since I started going to her, my hair is layered, textured, shaped and colored beautifully. Whenever I leave after an appointment with Ashley I am always EXTREMELY happy with the results. This past visit at her new salon was great! The salon is so open, clean and beautifully decorated, I love the over all esthetic! read more

I just recently went to Alchemy for the first time as my hairstylist, Ashley just moved over to this salon. I gotta say, I dig the vibe, very relaxing and soothing... you really do leave your problems at the door when you enter. The elements of wood and several plants really bring life into the place. As far as my service goes, Ashley has been my stylist for about a year and a half now. She's taken me from drab to fab over and over again. We've done blonde, pastel colors, highlights and at the moment we're currently doing fun colors like purple and magenta. I really love the creativity she exhibits and appreciate her honest input about what's possible and what's not possible in one appointment. However, what has impressed me the most is how knowledgeable she is and specially how pleasant her personality is. I'm already looking forward to my next appointment! read more

I've been going to Sam for years, and I've followed her to every salon and I will follow her to the edge of the earth because well... my hair is really important to me. Call me shallow if you want ‍ My hair is amazing. I mean, I owe it all to Sam. People tell me it's "on point" in conference calls and other side jab jealous comments. She always makes sure I look good, and is honest and I appreciate it. The new salon is so cute and I'm really happy for Sam!!! Great place. read more

If you're looking for an esthetician, you've come to the right place! I've been seeing Sam for her sugaring services since my esthetician of over 8 years moved to Southern California. Although I was hesitant to try someone new after having such a good experience with my last gal, I scheduled a Brazilian and brows appointment with Sam, open-minded about the sugaring technique. Sam makes your appointment very comfortable and casual; the conversation flows so easily. :) I left very satisfied with my appointment; not only is sugaring less painful, but it seems to last longer than traditional waxing. Since my initial appointment with Sam, I have now followed her to Alchemy, where she has such a cute and inviting set up for her clients. I haven't tried her other services yet, but I look forward to trying all she has to offer, as I trust her and her skill completely! read more

I called day of asking if there was any room for me to get my hair cut and colored and was able to get an appointment off of someone's cancellation. Justina was very reasonable about pricing with me given my budget and talked with me about what I wanted so she could get it right. Love the way my hair turned out! I got blonde highlights and a trim and my hair feels so much happier :) Would definitely go back and recommend to anyone looking for a new local place in Gilroy to freshen their hair up :) read more

Amanda has done my hair twice and my lashes twice and I love how everything has turned out! The first time Amanda did my hair, I wanted a rainbow on the underside of my recently box dyed black hair. She did a perfect job going from black to blonde before adding the color! I loved how vibrant all of the colors in the rainbow turned out and she touched up my roots that were growing in brown so I would have completely black hair on top of the rainbow. After that color faded, she did blue and green on the underside of my hair and it looked absolutely beautiful, like a mermaid. My lashes were a huge hit. I have sensitive skin and eyes and was worried the lashes might really bother me, but they didn't and the looked fabulous. All my co workers and friends loved my lashes. I'd roll out of bed feeling all made up without any makeup on. read more

Hailey did a great color correct on my hair, which had three different colors because of bad home dye jobs. Now it's a solid dark brown to blend in with my natural color so my roots blend in better as my hair grows!

Glad to have found this salon! I reached out via Yelp messaging to book and received a very fast response and was able to book easily. They even were able to get me an appointment the next day which was awesome. Starr was my stylist and did an awesome job cutting my SUPER long hair. The salon is cozy and comfy. The staff are welcoming, nice, and personable. Starr listens to what you want and also offers her professional input as needed. I really liked her and I really enjoyed my experience. Looking forward to booking an appointment for color in the future. I would recommend and I will absolutely return! read more

Let me start by saying I have never left a hair salon happy with the way my hair turned out. I'm always in tears by the time I hit the car. This time, I was ecstatic!! I originally made an appointment online for Samantha but when a conflict arose in time she quickly helped me get switched to Ashley. I was in a chair right at my appointment time and Ashley gave me exactly what I wanted!! I was worried we would run over my time frame but she finished quickly and made sure I was happy with the cut! She even styled it exactly how I asked. I will not go anywhere else again for my hair!! The salon is clean and really chic in its decoration. So happy I found this place! read more
