I'm so glad I found this place. I love my hair!! Great highlights, lowlights and cut. Thank you, Michelle!

I was introduced to Michelle and Mane Bar when my hairstylist went on maternity leave, and I was a bit nervous since I'm a hard-to-lift blonde. Trying someone new always stresses me out, especially with how finicky my hair can be. But since Michelle came highly recommended, I decided to give it a shot. I'm so glad I did--she absolutely nailed it on the first try and hit it out of the park again on my second visit! I'll definitely be sharing some pics to show off her amazing work. I've been so impressed that I've decided to stick with Michelle instead of going back to my old stylist. If you're a blonde looking for someone you can trust, Michelle is your go-to! read more

I tried extensions for the first time a few months ago, and it has been a great experience here at Mane Bar. I got a balayage first and then the staff ordered extensions to match. It is truly impressive how well everything blends. Thank you Janelle, you are so kind and welcoming. I love my hair and I always walk out feeling like a million bucks! read more

A lovely experience with Janelle! My regular stylist I have trusted with my many extensions had an emergency and would not be available for my desperately-needed move-up. I contacted Mane Bar through their website and was able to get in next day! The salon suite was cute, clean, and comfortable. Janelle was friendly and skilled. Overall wonderful experience! I've already recommended my best friend to also go to Mane Bar! read more

Michelle is a polite and skilled hairstylist. I trust her more than anyone else when it comes to hair lightening and covering gray hair. My hair stays healthy and long. She provides consistent services every time and the prices are also reasonable. She does all of this and never keeps you waiting. read more

I was looking for a place that could do a move up of my exisiting extensions and found Mane Bar on yelp. I decided to go with them because of their great reviews, and I was not disappointed! Booking was super easy and Janelle was amazing!! read more

Michelle is AMAZING with color! She asks all the right questions to ensure you're happy with her services!

Absolutely love Janelle her blowouts are the best and last for days and days! She is the best in North County San Diego!

Found this place on Yelp and loved that is was close by! They had a lot of great reviews and wanted to give them a try! I don't get my hair done that much, maybe once or twice a year just a haircut. But I was pleasantly surprised at how clean the studio was and how nice the staff were. I loved how my hair came out, showed the stylist a picture for inspiration and it was a simple cut with lots of layers. And she did an amazing job! Will be back for my future haircuts! read more

The studio is nice, and customer service is good. Janelle is super fun and easy to talk to. But this is not the place to go if you have tape-in extensions. I've been wearing extensions for over a year now, and I have never had them fall out before. About 10-12 extensions have fallen out within the last few weeks. I did notice how sticky my hair was immediately after my last visit, and some hair that should have been glued to one extension was stuck to another one. So in some areas, I had criss-crossed hairs, haha. I'm due for a move-up, but I think I will be going elsewhere. read more

Love Mane Bar! Always happy with their services and kindness! Highly recommend Mane Bar, you will be pleased with the outcome!

This team does an amazing job with hair and are such sweethearts! It is always a good time when i go in

Mane Bar is always my first choice when I think of how I'm going to get ready for an event. Whether it's date night, a girls night, or getting ready for a wedding. Michelle and Cynthia are experts in their field. I always come in looking scary and leave looking like a super model . My make up is always gorgeous because they use the best products that actually compliment my skin tone and my hair always lasts days on end after styling . I recently had them travel for my very good friends wedding in Palm Springs last week and they were nothing short of dream hair and make up angels! They were on time, they were professional, they listened to the wants and needs of each bridesmaid and they transformed each of us into gorgeous girls for the brides special day. The hair and make up on my girlfriend, the bride was insane!!! She looked straight out of a magazine. I love supporting hard working girls and Mane Bar is them!!! I wouldn't go anywhere else or call anyone else to help me get ready ! read more

Had a wedding to attend 3 weekends ago in Carlsbad & needed to find a dry bar ASAP. Found this place on Yelp & my request to book an appointment for the following day was replied to almost immediately. The salon is located in a shopping mall with plenty of parking. The only thing that was slightly confusing was trying to find the salon within the shopping mall. The Mane was located inside of a building that had a strip of salons & other beauty spaces inside it. Needless to say, it wasn't that hard to find because I made it & I had my hair styled by Cynthia! Cynthia was super cool & easy to talk to. The end result was an elegant updo that only cost me $50. I would definitely go back again if I'm in the area. read more

Highly recommend Michelle! She's great, quick and maintains healthy hair! Very pleased

Michelle is the only person I trust to cut or style my hair! I have thick, wavy, long hair and most stylist cannot handle it, or they never really cut it the way I ask them to. Michelle always understands exactly what I want and I always leave her salon happy. I love her so much that I even had her do my hair for my wedding! She'll be the only person cutting my hair for the foreseeable future. read more

Give it a try you won't be disappointed!! read more

My first Yelp review and it's so well deserved! Michelle is absolutely amazing and I should have came to her months ago. So worth the drive from LA to Carlsbad! In the last 8 months, I have been to 4 appointments (2 salons) in my local area to bring me from brunette to a cool-tone blonde. Constantly being disappointed after every session, I finally decided to contact Michelle and she was able to get me in right away, AND had no issue bringing my hair from dark to light in one sitting. She understood what I was envisioning and made it happen with confidence and ease. I love my new color and she styled it perfectly when most people aren't sure how to handle my thick, wavy hair. All in all, not only is Michelle extremely talented, but she's a great person and a pleasure to be around. So happy I finally found my stylist! read more

Mane Bar - Before and After! - Hair Stylists Near Me - Carlsbad, California

I LOVE Michelle and will never go anywhere else!! She's been doing my hair for years (highlights, extensions, cuts, blow outs, color, etc!!) and she's the best at everything...she always knows what to do with my hair, even when I don't, and is available for early morning or late afternoon appointments!! I've often gone in at 6am before work and gone in feeling like a million bucks. Michelle is also great at kids cuts, she cut my 2 year olds hair for the first time, while he was running around her salon, and it turned out great lol! Would recommend her for anything!!!! She's also been amazing during this quarantine, making sure I have all of the products I need! read more

Michelle is AMAZING !!!! I have thin, limp, frizzy hair and decided to try extensions. Not a fan of most since you can feel them and they look so fake. I would give Michelle 10 stars if I could. I can't feel the tape, and she matched my blonde PERFECTLY!!! I know a lot of my friends who have had bad experiences and they love mine so much, they are switching to Michelle! THANK YOU SO MUCH...I feel so young and feel great. read more

Both Cynthia and Michelle slay it! I got 16" tape ins by Michelle and they are the best extensions I've ever had!! The tape is amazing and they are so full and natural. First set that I can just wash my hair and go in. I don't even have to style them they blend so well. She is a sweetheart too and I had fun chatting with her. She finished my extensions, blended them and took photos in under an hour! Cynthia did my hair for my wedding. She came to my location and arrived 15 minutes early which is great on your wedding day. She is so cute and gave me great advice on which style to choose with my flower crown. She was so quick and used great products. She gave me beautiful waves and braids that held up for days! My hair looked good 3 days later the curls and braids were still holding up haha a little messy after sleeping but still there! She also does makeup so a great choice for your hair and makeup on your big day! Their shop is so adorable and they are super affordable too. Don't hesitate with these girls you can't go wrong. read more

Michelle just put in tape in extensions for me this morning. It was so easy to set an appt using her online portal and she had slots available at 6am so I could be done before work. She was super sweet, very professional, and my extensions look amazing! She had lots in stock so there was no wait time for ordering. She put them in in about 1 hour and trimmed it down. Highly recommend read more

I loved my experience with Michelle! She not only is incredibly talented, she's so kind and personable. She made the whole process of getting extensions for the first time so easy. I absolutely love my hair and will definitely be going back! read more

Cynthia and Michelle are absolutely great! When I decided last minute that I wanted to get extensions that very weekend (!) The Mane Bar was the only place that told me no problem we can make that happen! I texted pics of my hair and they said they were sure they had a match. My first extension experience was so fun and what a transformation it was! I am hooked now and will likely keep going to them for my extensions for years! They offer fast beautiful blow outs for a very reasonable price compared to competitors. I always come out feeling like a million bucks! I can say enough good things about Cynthia and Michelle! read more

This place is awesome! Cynthia did a great job with hair and make up for prom. Highly recommend, and can't wait to go back and try extensions! read more

Michelle is seriously the best! When I first got tape in extensions, it was a nightmare. Overpriced and ripped my hair out. Then I met Michelle. She is willing to accommodate your busy schedule no matter the day or time, and she is excellent! She's a wonderful person and makes you feel like a hair mermaid goddess whenever you leave the salon! She loves trying new things and her goal is to make all her clients happy. I even left my hair stylist who I used to see for color and cuts to switch to Michelle because she does such a good job. Thank you for all that you do. Cynthia is also. AMAZING. I was having some issues with my hair and didn't know what was happening. She solved the problem and my hair has never felt or looked better. I am SO happy and thankful for her. She's always happy and has become one of my good friends. She also loves to get creative and try new things! You can show her a picture of any style from Instagram and she will get it done! That's not easy! She knows what she's doing end knows what to do with all hair types. Getting blowouts at Mane Bar is life-changing with these two and I don't trust ANYONE else with my hair. Thank you thank you thank you! read more

I just moved to the area and am very picky about my hair, found Mane Bar and told Michelle exactly what I wanted and she did just that! The cut I got was awesome and thinned out my normally super thick hair. Highly recommended for blondes!!! Loved the one on one conversation and atmosphere, definitely going to be a repeat customer read more

Absolutely LOVED CYNTHIA! We are in Carlsbad for part of the summer on vacation and it is difficult to find a stylist for blow dry when you're used to having blow dry bars within 5 mins in every direction in your own home town. The first week we were here I went to a "blow Dry only" salon, which was pretty good but Definitely did not compare to Cynthia at Mane Bar. I believe she offers all the services of a regular salon as well! Love that this beauty mall is a quick drive from the beach!! read more

Janelle is amazing with her customer service and blowdrying skills! She is friendly and a boss stylist! Highly recommended her in the carlsbad area! read more

I was originally referred to Mane Bar by my Hair Dresser who was moving out of state. She researched Michelle and thought she would be a good fit for me. She nailed it! Michelle has been doing my hair for a few years now and I can't say enough about her professionalism, knowledge, and ability to give you what you want. She is fantastic with color, cut and style. The atmosphere at Mane Bar is comfortable and Michell is a really fun, hospitable person....love her!!! read more

Michelle is the best! She can work with my thin, fine, graying hair and can make me look good! She has been the only one who has gotten me actual compliments from friends - and complete strangers!- on my hair. It could be the cut, (which still looks great after 4 months, by the way), or it could be the color, which has also held up rather well. Most likely both. I am pleased to recommend Michelle for anything that has to do with hair. In fact, I Urge you to give her a try . read more

Michelle is amazing! The best cuts and custom extensions you can get in SD! She can make your long hair dreams come true.

I would give Mane Bar 10 stars if I could! Michelle was AMAZING!! I have been looking for someone to go to for my hair that actually listened to what I wanted, Michelle not only listened but she shared my vision and made it happen! I sent her some pics and she asked all the right questions and I left there feeling so beautiful! Michelle did a cut and color and everything was perfect, I have received compliments all day, she also hooked me up with a new threading place! Michelle is the sweetest and super easy to talk to, I will 100% be going back to see her. Thank you!!!! read more
