Reviews Leone Salon/Amanda…read more Amanda Leone Finding a new hairstylist is like finding a new life partner! And we don't have dating apps to find them. When my hair stylist of 30 years retired, I was left feeling like I could never find anyone who could really know my hair, my style, know me! Upon a referral from a friend, she said, "See Amanda Leone, owner of Leone Salon." I took the leap and trusted her. Amanda wowed me from our first visit. Her friendly, calming, stylish, and savvy nature put me at ease. She transformed my trust as the process of getting my hair colored and cut has been even better than before! A sheer hair genius, she is remarkable in her ability and awareness to create exactly what I wanted and what I didn't know I even needed and wanted in style and color. I was so overjoyed by my experience with her that now, my sister also sees her and is equally ecstatic with her care! Amanda has created a beautiful salon and atmosphere. Take the leap, Amanda is top-notch! Heads above the rest! Grateful for her skilled, professional, stylish awareness, and friendly care!

Kimberly Buyer at Leone Salon -- The Funk Zone, Santa Barbara…read more If you haven't found Kimberly Buyer yet, consider this your sign. Leone Salon sits in the heart of Santa Barbara's Funk Zone -- easy parking, soaring ceilings, neutral tones, lush greenery, a garden out back, and airflow that makes the whole space feel alive. The vibe alone is worth the visit. But Kimberly is the reason you'll keep coming back. Kimberly is the kind of stylist who is deeply schooled in her craft - trained across some of the most demanding, trend-forward environments in the industry with a genuine gift for color and an instinct for what your hair actually needs. She works with products that are thoughtfully chosen and gentle on your body, and her level of care feels personal every single time. What surprised me most was how the experience felt. The shampoo and scalp massage alone were borderline transcendent -- the kind of care where you actually exhale. And the way she moves through the styling process -- intuitive, unhurried, completely confident -- left my hair looking exactly like the best version of itself. Whether you live here or you're just passing through, booking with Kim is the move. Locals already know -- and if you're visiting, slip it into your itinerary. The Funk Zone is a wonderful place to wander, and the beach and waterfront walkway are just a short hop away. You'll leave delighted on every level.

I knew I could trust Krysta with my hair from the start and she was so sweet and patient with me being new to coloring hair and answered all the questions I had. They recently redid their salon so it's really beautifully decorated and clean. I was offered coffee, tea, or water and I never felt uncomfortable or unattended to. I was worried the appointment would eat up a lot of my day but it only took about 2.5 hours, and I really appreciated that the service was within my spending budget.

I really like how one side of my hair turned out, but for the other side the layers seem too choppy and don't blend in as well as I would like. They'll probably grow out into a better length within the next few weeks but it's one of those things that you shouldn't have to experience with the price you're paying. Maybe it was just an off thing though, but she is extremely friendly, I just wasn't 100% satisfied with this experience.
