I had the most amazing experience with Rose at Paizleys Studio! From the very first consultation, Rose was incredibly informative, patient, and thoughtful about my curly hair and color history. She walked me through every step of the process, from how bleach could affect my curls to what tones would complement my complexion and I felt completely comfortable and cared for the entire time. On the day of my appointment, Rose made me feel so welcome and at ease. She's clearly an expert with curls, she took her time with the dry cut and customized everything to enhance my natural texture. My highlights came out exactly how I envisioned them soft caramel tones that brighten my face without damaging my curls. If you have curly hair and want someone who truly understands how to treat it with care, Rose is the one! She's talented, professional, and super sweet. I'm beyond happy with the results and can't wait to return! Thank you, Rose! read more

Rose is genuinely amazing. I'd spent years cutting my own hair after traumatizing experiences with stylists who didn't know what to do with my curls--and then I found Rose. She's been cutting hair for around 40 years and has worked solely with curls for the past 12. She took one look at my hair and knew exactly what it needed (layers!), but she struck a perfect balance between offering input and listening to what I wanted. Because I've always liked to keep my hair long, she cut off as little as possible while giving my curls lovely shape and definition. My hair actually looked longer and fuller when she'd finished with it! To top it all off, she spent the whole time giving me curly girl tips that were tailored to my hair. I've spent years experimenting with my curls and learning how to take care of them, but she still knew more than I do, and I learned a trick or too. Please, if you're a curly girl and have ever had a negative experience with a salon, go see Rose! Your curls will be in expert hands. read more

I have gotten haircuts and dye jobs for over ten years now in San Jose, NYC, and Philadelphia--but I have never had a more positive experience than I had with Jenn Betty! Jenn is an excellent hair stylist -- professional and truly an expert in her craft. The first thing that stood out to me in my experience is how seriously Jenn takes the consultation. She is clear and direct about what is possible for your hair, based on your budget and hair goals. I told her I wanted to grow my hair out, so she advised me not to overdo it with hair color (i.e. bleaching my hair) and suggested a beautiful, soft brown highlight that blended in perfectly with my hair. My DevaCut frames my face perfectly, with a light fringe, just the way I envisioned it! The second thing that stood out to me in my experience is Jenn's efficiency and professionalism. She has great conversation but really makes sure you don't end up in the salon longer than necessary. I really appreciated the way she staggered other clients. Jenn Betty is a GEM in San Jose! If you have curly hair needs (cut or color), I would not recommend anyone else. read more

I came in for my first DevaCut for my wavy hair, and Rose was amazing! She really knows how to cut hair.

If you've never treated your curls or waves to a dry cut/DevaCut, you're in for a real treat! read more

I was looking for a summer curly cut and highlights, but was disappointed. I found this salon with great reviews and was excited for my appointment with Jenn. I'll start by saying Jenn was super nice and answered my questions about color damage and made me feel comfortable. Color- we opted to do highlights and to prevent against damage, we decided to go light/ medium brown. The last time I got brown highlights, they looked beautiful and were apparent. This time, the color was darker than I thought it would be, but I was happy walking out with it because she said it would lighten up. It's been a couple weeks, and my color has not lightened- it still looks black (my natural hair color). So it feels like I don't even have highlights. Haircut- this is where the majority of my disappointment came from. We discussed cutting off a bit of damage but still keeping the length, but adding a bit of layering. What I didn't expect is to have an extremely short top layer, and a long bottom layer, making my hair look super disjointed and choppy. I'm devastated about my haircut, and I was hoping for a cute summer cut, and instead I'll be wearing my hair up all summer. Even half up half down hairstyles look horrible right now because of the very short top layer. It looks like I have weird clumps of hair on the bottom layer. I expressed my concerns to Jenn and she was super sweet and understanding about it, and offered to try and fix it. However, I probably won't be returning. I felt like my service ($350 including tip) was a waste of money, and I'm now very upset about my hair. I'd advise against going here for a curly cut. read more

I've been going to Jenn for some time now. My first appointment was maybe about a year ago while searching on the deva curl website. I was tired of getting bad haircuts (my curls always looking heavy and dragged down). Initially my hair was long and heavy. I've always had a lot of hair so having it long just made it heavier for me. Jenn has changed my life! After a couple cuts I decided to add color and I'm satisfied with how healthy my hair still feels. My hair doesn't feel fried even though we've been going lighter! I can now wear my hair out with nothing in it and not feel like the lion king the moment it's dry. Here are some pictures of how she's transformed me. Thank you and see you soon! *first two are before going in with her. No volume, just frizz. read more

Paizleys Studio - New deva curly haircut - Hair Salons Near Me - San Jose, California

I had Maria cut my hair a week ago. I came in with pictures having had deva cuts before. I had expectations. My first clue that everything was not alright came during the shower. Normally stylists will ask if the temperature is ok. When your hair is obviously dyed like mine is they ask if you want the water cold. Maria just put me under hot water. We had already discussed my dyed hair. After I came out of the dryer I noticed the hair framing my face was uneven. She fixed that and took off the cloche. It was the opposite of what I asked for. I wanted my hair layered near my face and not by my neck. My hair was lying limply around my face and proofing out at my neck. She recut it so it was better which is why I'm giving her 3 stars. Update: I had bought an arc angel gel when I got my hair cut. The bottle was of an old design. When I wrote this I had not yet yes it. When I opened it up I noticed it was a lot more watery than what I'm used to. It was so expensive I suffered through and just used it though half of it ended up sloshing out of my hand. I just needed to buy my conditioner again so I ordered the gel as well. The color of the new one is 3-4 shades darker. I have never added water to it. I'm lowering my score now that I see what a scam this place really is. read more

Paizleys Studio - Discrepancy in the color of the gel they sold vs one directly from deva curl. - Hair Salons Near Me - San Jose, California

I went for a "diva inspired" cut and style with Jenn. The salon is tiny but clean, cute & friendly and got me an appointment on fairly short notice. I have coarse, dry, wavy hair so on the plus side, I came out with the most sleek hair (zero frizz) I've ever had and learned the difference primer can make on my hair. On the other hand, the stylist gave me a quick cut, added product to my hair while finger coiling and just left me under the chair dryer until dry. When I emerged, my hair was much straighter than my normal (say a 2a) but she just shrugged and told me it needed to grow it out. On my very next wash day, however, I got a noticeably wavier/curlier result using my diffuser. She also didn't cut the hair at my nape, saying there was no point because I was growing it out but it quickly became bulky and stuck out randomly from under the upper layers. Despite my experience, I would recommend this salon if you have hair with tighter curls and you'd like to elongate them (the gal before me came out with lovely, silky, defined curls) but not if you've wavy hair that needs to be coaxed to its waviest/curliest self. read more

I just moved to the SJ area about 2 months ago and was in desperate need of a new deva stylist. Before I moved to SJ, I had gotten some color work done by my stylist back home. My roots had since grown out and the shape of my curls needed some TLC. I scheduled an appointment with Rose for a root touch up and deva cut. After looking at the health of my hair/curls, she recommended some color options that would prevent me having to come in every month for root touch ups. We also went over the shape of my curls and how to layer the cut. By the end of the appointment, Rose had worked a miracle on my hair! Hands down, the best deva cut I've ever gotten!! She layered my hair so well and we still preserved length. I love the color changes she made, it compliments me so much better than the prior color I had. I will definitely be scheduling future appointments for cuts and color! read more

I've had many Deva cuts in the past and loved the results. Since moving to San Jose, I'd been hesitant to get my hair cut. I was nervous to try a new stylist and knew the price would be much higher in this area. However...a year and a half later, it was time! I spent hours selecting a salon - started at the DevaCurl site, then poured through reviews for all of the certified stylists. I felt confident when I narrowed it down to Paizleys and one other salon. I'll start by saying Paizleys got my business because they actually picked up the phone. Crazy that I even have to say that, but the other salon took a full week to get back to me (and was booking a month out). Maria answered the phone when I called and squeezed me in that same weekend. +1 for Paizleys. Maria was super easy to talk to and made me feel at ease when I arrived. I showed her pictures (of my past cuts and other images from Pinterest) to give her a sense for what I wanted. I felt confident that I was in good hands. +1 again for rapport. Then the cutting started and my heart sank. It was shorter than I wanted. I knew my hair would spring up to be much shorter after it was styled. She asked if everything was okay, but there was no going back at that point, so I mentioned my concern but also told her I trusted her. I've had short hair cuts in the past that I loved, so I figured if I was going to drop a huge chunk of cash, I may as well walk out with a big change. Fast forward to the styling post cut/color. Every Deva cut I've had prior emphasizes the "hair flop". Post conditioner, you flip your head over, smooth gel over drenched hair and scrunch. When this didn't happen, I asked and she said the salon was too small because the chair is close to the door. So she used her fingers to twirl/create my curls, which results in a very different look than I would normally get. In the end, my hair looked like the dreaded triangle. It is a blunt cut at my shoulders with very few layers on the side/back. With tip I was out almost $350 for cut and color, and this is one of my least favorite hair cuts ever. I've given it a full month to see if I could learn to love it, but I'm still disappointed every time I look in the mirror. Maria was very professional and expressed concern when she saw I wasn't gushing over the results, so I give her credit for that. However, I won't be returning. This is the type of cut I would expect from someone who doesn't handle curly hair daily. read more

I am so happy to have found Rose. This senior curly head needs to see someone every 2 to 3 months to keep the curls going. Her deva cut does the job and now I can grow the curls over the next year and see what happens. No pressure to come back in, just call when I think I need to. read more

Rose is amazing! She has cut my hair for 3 years and does such a wonderful job. She is really accommodating and always makes adjustments if they are needed so my cut is exactly how I want it. She has fully saved my hair from the absolute hackjob I did during the pandemic. She also trims my bangs free of charge so I don't have to pay for a whole new haircut as soon as my hair starts getting in my eyes. I highly recommend her for a curly cut! read more

With the right haircut and product I now have luscious waves. She has great product recommendations and walks you through how to use it. Definitely go see her! read more

Got an amazing cut from Maria who is a level 3 Deva stylist who really worked with my schedule and was very sweet and knowledgeable when it comes to the curly girl method. What I loved actually was that she didn't try to push any products on me and just let them speak for them selves. She taught be how to better take care of my wavy curls so they come out more and got rid of a lot of my damaged hair. Im very grateful and will be returning for sure read more

Many times I leave other salons looking like I stuck my finger in a socket or after one hour my hair is going crazy but never with Jenn! She is so great at styling that I can sleep on it and wake up and go the next day, just like that! Also, the third day I gently wet it and still it looks great so I wear her style for 3 days! It awesome!!!! I would definitely trust her to style me for a photo shoot and a special occasion as I have in the past. Finally, she is really professional and I can easily get an appointment every time with a simple text. Love that! Thanks Jenn!!!! read more

Its been about 10 days since i got my hair cut from Maria. I will say that Maria is really nice and welcoming and the studio is comfortable and clean. I came to see Maria because I wanted to shape/ layer my hair as its been over 2 years since my last hair cut (deva cut). most importantly, I specifically explained how important it is for me to keep the length of the hair (it does take a long time to grow curls!!) and she repeatedly said how she "is just taking a little bit off" . I asked to just give it a refresher (cut off the dead ends). unfortunately, Maria cut over 6 inches off my hair and left me with a short (chin length) haircut. Its absolutely NOT what i was wanting. when I left the studio my hair was still wet so i didn't see the extent of it, but when i got home and looked in the mirror i was honestly shocked. I am extremely disappointed as i was specifically seeking a curl specialist. I drove pretty far to see her and paid a lot of money for the specialty Deva Cut. since the haircut I've been putting my hair up, covering it with a hat or a scarf or braiding it. I really wanted to write a glorious review and to be stoked on my haircut but alas, this is what i got ;( read more

Well...I just got my hair cut by Jenn. I am so disappointed with the cut and the service. She took her time to recommend that I get it cut shorter and also suggested that layers will make my fine hair look fuller, which was nice. I gave her the OK but for whatever reason she just basically trimmed the ends a little....no layers. She took less than 5 mins to do that, shampoo, wash, dry a little styling product and I was out the door in less than 30 minutes. I don't feel she gave me her time or attention....maybe she just was busy with her other client or wanted to go home early. The haircut and style is less than mediocre...maybe it looks 5% better than what I can do at home and certainly does not look like I what spent on it. Will not return ever read more

Classic What I Asked for VS. What I got While I do like this salon I was upset with my results because it was just a disregard for what I asked for. I think that my stylist, Maria, did not want to tell me she did not know how to do pintura highlights. For curly girls there is a certain painting method, called pintura, which stylists use for coloring curls. This method reduces damage of bleach and makes it so the hair doesn't look as frizzy and dry. Curly girls if you ask for pintura I would advise you see a picture of the colorist's work. I know this should be common knowledge by now but still I did not expect a Deva curl certified stylist to go this rogue! When I asked Maria to do the lightening I told her I wanted to keep a darker top look but just add some dimension and partial lightening. I did not say I wanted a fully head of highlights. I showed her the pictures below as my inspiration and in the end I became a blonde. I freaked out when she showed me. Maria was nice enough to tone it down but once your blonde there is really no going back. While I do think is looks good, when styled, I am afraid of the future damage and most of all it was not what I asked for!! read more

I had my first DivaCut with Maria. Omg my curls popped. Even the 2nd day. I loved that she involved my daughter while doing my hair. We both learned so much. After the $110 hair cut. Yes $110. I went and spent $130 on the products at Ulta. Which I was bummed she didn't offer to sell me products. But glad she didn't pressure me to buy anything. What I loved is that the products didn't leave my hair all crunch. The ultimate test will be on wash day. thank you to the staff for being sweet to my daughter. See you guys at the new year! read more

So here's the thing: I'm biracial and have curly hair.. people do not know how incredibly difficult it is to find a person who knows how to cut that kind of hair. It's truly been a blessing finding Rose at Paizley's! I've been going to Rose for awhile now and she knows how to handle the former mess of curls I used to have. The Deva cut and products have made my hair the best it's ever been...I get compliments all the time and follow up questions on what I do to my hair.

I was recommended by my friend to get a deva cut because I didn't like the shape of my hair it needed some love. I was skeptical at first because well I'm black with type 4 curly hair, I've got like three different curls in my head. So I was like I'm not sure if they'll be able to handle my hair. I spoke with Maria two weeks prior and made an appointment with her. I got there and again I was like wait a minute there aren't any black people here, when I tell you this woman gave me an amazing cut. LISTEN TO MEEEEE!!!!! I love my hair cut, I've been living in the US for a while and have been to traditionally black salons and I don't feel like they knew anything about my hair but this woman knew about my hair and was knowledgeable and made me feel absolutely confident and beautiful. I don't wear my natural hair ever and since she's given me my cut I've been wearing out. It feels so good to get your hair done and not feel like you're a burden because of your hair type. My natural hair is still pretty new to me. I recommend this place to every one no matter what race you are. They know their stuff. I did not like the Deva Cut products but I loved Maria and how she did my hair. Like I wanna go back every month read more

I'm originally from NYC and moved to the Bay Area. I wore my hair in box braids for about 2 years before deciding that was too long to spend in the chair and wanted to get my hair healthy again. I knew that involved a hair cut! It had been so long since I'd had it cut that I was sure wherever I went would insist I cut off huge amounts. I found Paizley's through the Deva website and chose it because they had two 'Art of Texture' stylists and my hair is mixed 4B and 4C. Maria happened to have availability at a time that worked for me, so I booked with her. As soon as I met her I knew I was in good hands! I was especially nervous getting my hair cut by someone who had straight hair, but she did several things exceptionally: 1. Talked to me about my hair history completely non-judgmentally 2. Let me know about the health of my hair as-is 3. Didn't cut a lot AT ALL (literally almost all of my length was retained because she let me know it was healthy, but needed shape) 4. Taught me about every step that she did along the way and made sure it was simple enough for me to recreate at home I left with moisturized, defined, well-shaped (but not boxy) hair that still feels and looks great the next day. I've never felt so welcome, comfortable and embraced in a salon (including black salons that usually want to press/relax my hair). She was knowledgable and so warm. I cannot wait to go back! read more

My first time at Paizleys was perfect! Elfi Bailey did my hair and I asked her for a very specific cut and color--I am very picky when it comes to the color of my hair--and she nailed it! She was very careful and caring, making sure I enjoyed the colors she was choosing and that I was comfortable at all times. She managed the exact style I wanted with ease, and I felt like a whole new person after leaving the salon. I have had an incredible number of compliments, and have had to go back to Paisleys to ask for more business cards to give to my friends. In addition to being a wonderful stylist, she is extremely fun and outgoing, and keeps me laughing the whole time I'm sitting in her chair and around the salon. I highly recommend Elfi, and you will not regret making an appointment with her. I trust her with anything! Her contact number is: 408-366-2223 read more

Jenn is the best and I've been all around the valley w/ hair stylists I ought to know! First of all, I've been going to silicon valley hair stylists since 1988 from Sunnyvale to San Martin (I live in Morgan Hill). I work in high tech and by now, I'm not so young, so professional, age appropriate, attractive style (and now color is a MUST) are essential. I'm not a natural artist, and I need a style that also looks good when I do it. I have been going to Paisleys' for nearly 10 years and until Jenn completed her training always went to Rose. I began going to Rose because a dear friend of mine, also in her 40's raved about her and it showed in her gorgeous hair. No question, Rose is a gifted artist and offers her opinion based on your requirements and goals for your hair. However, I always have enjoyed Jenn's outlook on life back from when she was in school and the salon scheduler/support person. She is 20 years younger than me but so wise, kind and funny- I never felt uncomfortable speaking to her. She also is very stylish and well appointed physically and I really appreciate that because as I age and wear some non-standard sizes, I admire and have often asked her advice on makeup and clothing. I began going to Jenn because it was sometimes easier than fitting into Rose's schedule and Rose always encourages her newer stylists to develop their clientele accordingly I notice. I couldn't be happier. She's been doing my hair for 2 straight years and the color is so natural and beautiful and perfect for my age and lifestyle. I always get compliments on the cut- I barely need to ask her what to do and if I have a special request (more of this, less of that, tired of fill in the blank) she advises as expertly and confidently as Rose (with considerably more experience) does. I know everyone has a bad day, and I am not saying someone couldn't have had a bad experience, even with someone as even tempered and pleasant as Jenn, but i just don't understand how that can be. I literally look forward to my appointments not only for the tender loving care and expert guidance I receive but because I genuinely have come to think of Jenn as I do a close friend or family member. To say that she is rough is unthinkable. I can't even think of a time when Jenn failed to offer me something to eat or drink, and do everything in her power to make me comfortable while I sat there waiting for the color to set appropriately. All I ever worry about is that Jenn will move away- I can't believe my good fortune to have her as a stylist. She understands color and all its complexities and subtleties as well as hair products and makeup. I love the fact that she's younger than me and can only hope that she'll stay in the silicon valley so I can have the privilege of her work as long as I am breathing. read more
