    Pixie cut! So cute!
    Tiffany C.

    Love, love, LOVEEEEEE THIS SALON! Nyeisha is not only amazing at what she does, she is extremely friendly. She treats new clients as well as she treats regulars. I used to have to go all the way to SF for a beautician that can do my hair the way I want, but not anymore. I was living in Dublin a few years ago and looking for a new beautician that was closer to me and happened to find this gem of a salon and now I live in north San Jose and it is more than worth the drive to go to see Nyeisha. The last time I went, I decided to try something new and got a super short pixie cut but I could not have trusted a better beautician. This is easily the best haircut I've ever had and I don't think I will trust anyone else to cut my hair this short. I have also gotten other hair styles and always feel so taken care of no matter what I want. I highly recommend this salon!

    How my hair was before. I had bleached it myself, the curls were healthier and a pretty warm gold.

    I had a very uncomfortable experience at this salon. I rarely give one star reviews, only when I experience both horrible customer service and poor services. My experience began with Nyeisha talking down to me over the phone about how the root touch-up that I initially wanted would have to be a complete color correction. I am grateful that she tried educating me on what she felt needed to be done, but she was very rude. There were 3 other major red flags for me: 1) I asked that at the end of the process that my roots be darker than my ends, but Nyeisha flat out told me that my whole head would be the same color. 2) I asked halfway through the process if I could put a brown over my hair, and was told that it would be a dark brown. I wanted light brown, but Nyeisha just told me it would have to be dark and I believed her, so I had them carry on with their treatments. She didn't give me much space to share the desires I had for my hair, so I just believed her. The next day when I came back and had them finish the last bleaching treatment, I was still looking crazy, so I asked again if I could put a brown over it. Nyeisha was talking (a lot), but literally stopped and looked at my with her eyes wide like I was crazy and said, "If you wanted brown we could have just done that yesterday!" I was stunned. 3) They washed my hair and put an olaplex conditioning treatment in it (they even wanted to wash it out, but I didnt let them. Type 3 hair should always have something it in after washing ESPECIALLY after bleaching it so many times). Then after drying my hair, I need a pick to give my hair volume and both Beatrize and Nyeisha could not find one in their whole salon. This is a black salon, but I guess not for afros. Additionally, I did not have to undergo so many bleaching treatments to get to my desired look. Throughout my time at the salon, Nyeisha repeatedly told me that we would discuss what type of blonde I wanted to be, and eventually began talking about honey blonde, which I accepted. I told her that I'm fairly open to be whatever type of blonde, but at some point she adopted the idea that I wanted to be platinum all over my head. I never once said that I wanted to be as light as possible. Platinum is what my ends were, and I did not want to have my whole head that color AND suffer the damaging treatments it takes to get there. Amidst my red flags were a multitude of other things that were not ok. Hair appointments are often stressful, but this one was extreme. This salon did not try to understand my vision nor work with me to get there/near there.

    AMAZING!!! I am extremely impressed with this salon! I haven't been to a hair salon in over 2 years or so... Needless to say I needed my hair done very badly! I was recommended to this shop and the Service was one of the best I have ever experienced! I did a big chop and the cut was done to perfection . My hair is silky and smooth and I'm just in the mirror 24/7 because I'm so excited about my new look. The salon is also very clean and Covid Safe! I was also impressed with how they sanitized well after each customer sat in a chair . The conversation was great with the girls in there as well. They are very friendly and welcoming . I Highly recommend this salon

    Cute short hair cut

    Looking for a stylist who is great with Black Hair? Nyeisha (Owner) does a great job on short styles. I was so excited to have the look that resemble Toni Braxton, Drea Kelly and Nicole Murphy's short hair look. I wanted the soft looking finger waves without the gels and hair spray. I like that she's quick, creative and works well with my hair. Thank you Nyeisha!

    Love, love, love this salon. Look at my hair. It started a mess and turned out beautiful. Thank you Nyeshia. You worked magic.

This place came up, and Jay had the highest reviews, so I decided to give him a try today. I showed him a picture of the haircut I wanted. He noticed that my current hairstyle had uneven layers and recommended making a few modifications to give me a better overall style. I had my roots touched up and got a haircut. Wow, I really love it! He doesn't overbook his appointments, so he spends enough time with each client for both the color and haircut. I really appreciate that he takes his time and doesn't rush. Highly recommend Jay if you're looking for a great hairstylist!

    Asked for a loose wave perm with volume and left with coils - they should fall a bit in the next…read morecouple days so I'll have to wait and see. There is also no volume as my roots were not permed and my hair is aggressively straight, so it looks a little sad and flat on top then bam, curls. I also wasnt given any care instructions for my perm whatsoever, so it's a good thing I'd done my research and knew not to wash my hair or do any styling for the first couple days. I'd definitely give this place another shot, because my hair does look decent, but I'll have to make sure I'm extra clear on what exactly I want. I also need to brush up on my Chinese as I didn't learn hair styling related Chinese in school, so my hairstylist and I could not communicate effectively.

    Came in for a booking with a friend on a Wednesday afternoon after being recommended to this salon…read moreby two other friends. The salon was clean and professional with some ambient jazz in the background. My appointment with Hibiki started with a gentle hair wash before I was brought a small cup of tea and some konpeito to snack on as I showed him the album of reference photos on my phone. We were able to make some pleasant small talk even with the English-Japanese language barrier, and Hibiki was very attentive to making sure my hair was cut and styled in a flattering way that added volume! (I had let him know I struggled with my hair sitting flat) I would definitely come back!! For anyone looking to book here that doesn't speak Japanese, I would advise you make sure you have clear reference photos of the type of cut you want--preferably from multiple angles. Don't be afraid to ask questions, bust out Google Translate, and make gestures for what length you want your hair at!

    Viange Hair is a wonderful salon, and master stylist Kaori is truly exceptional…read more Kaori is incredibly skillful and consistently delivers a very stylish, well-balanced haircut. She has a great eye for shape and detail, and every time I leave the salon the cut looks sharp, modern, and easy to maintain. She also takes the time to understand what you're looking for and offers thoughtful suggestions that really work with your hair and style. It's clear she has a lot of experience and takes pride in her craft. If you're looking for a stylist who can give you a clean, stylish cut with great attention to detail, I highly recommend Kaori at Viange Hair.

    Alice is the very best!!!…read more I've been coming to Alice since spring/summer of 2024, and now I can never go to anyone else. Seriously, the best haircuts I've ever had, that make it worth driving from the Bay Area. While at college, I had to try some other hair stylists and they just don't compare, to the point where she could tell they had done things that weren't in line with what I usually like. Her intuition for what you're looking for is spot on, and she knows how to kindly suggest what will and won't work best. Plus, when I was interested in color but am on a college student budget, she didn't hesitate to give me the best at-home suggestions. Not to mention that she's extremely personable, kind, and takes the time to really get to know you and check in on your life, no matter how long it's been since you last came in. Definition of the goat.

The color is always perfect and the cut is what I ask for. In fact, I now drive to Roseville from the Bay Area because I don't think I would find a hairstylist that I like better. I appreciate her honesty: there are times I ask if we need to redo my balayage and she says I don't need it yet. She is also very fun to talk to- for me the time with her goes by fast and I always enjoy chatting with her. I'm really glad I found Alice!
