    Hair cut by Pixie dot hair stylist, Kat.
    Karen M.

    What can I say about this fabulous salon?! First off, let's talk about the aesthetics, superb elegance, definitely puts you in the vibe that you will be coming out looking like a diamond with all the dark interior sprinkled with gold details. It's a very inviting atmosphere and it matches the personality of the artist herself! Speaking of artists, let's talk about the magical hands of Kay! If you want to stand out from a sea of mermaids with long hair and be authentically, one of a kind with a bob or pixie cut, she's your girl!!!! She is well diversified in her skills to make sure she delivers superb hair cutting services wether it be long hair or my personal favorite, A line bobs. I'n this socal region, it's very hard to find a hair dresser, let alone, one that knows what they are doing, to cut complicated hair cuts only bold people strive to attain. And if you are looking for color, she is also experienced in this special craft! That includes her young, hair assistant, Bella, who's is excellent in hair services as she is mentored by the best of the best. I just had my hair color retouched yesterday and she was sweet, gentle and attentive to my short locks of hair. So please! Book your appointment! Completely worth it! So please! Book your appointment

    Paul Michael is such a joy to be styled by and so skilled at his craft! He blew my mind as he considerately and artistically styled my hair. He helped me cut at least 12 inches off my head from long to angled bob (modern Victoria Beckham). I have received dozens of compliments from friends, classmates, colleagues, random people, etc. it's crazy. I highly recommend going to Paul Michael, only if you're ready to look fabulous ;) Check out the pic & video!

    Stacked bob haircut by Paul Michael at Pixiedot  Salon.

    I had been unhappy with my old stylist's cuts and was looking for a "transformation" haircut, a very technical stacked bob cut that would flatter my face and also be easier for me to care for, as I'm now in a wheelchair and have difficulty using my hands to style my hair. Wow, am I glad I found Pixiedot Salon, and the mega-gifted stylist Paul Michael! Paul Michael did an incredible job. He not only checked all the boxes, he went above and beyond to make sure I left the salon not just smiling but feeling beautiful and more life myself again. 10 stars out of 5! Fantastic stylist, fantastic salon.

    Loving my new color and fresh cut!! Thank you Kat!!

    I started coming to Kat after seeing the beautiful work she did to my sisters hair. I was coming out of having a bad color experience at another salon that left my long hair damaged. Kat assessed my hair and advised the majority of my hit on the bottom was too fried to save, to cut it off, savage what we could and start the grow process, I trusted her and so she cut off half my hair and gave me the cutest healthiest short cut that made me feel so much better! Since that time I've kept coming back to Kat because she's just a great person, kind hearted, easy going and an amazing hairstylist!!

    I took my mom here to get her the bob haircut she's been wanting for forever. I was referred to Kat because she specializes in short hair styles, so I made the appointment asap. She was booked pretty far in advance, so make your appointment sooner than later. Leila helped with making the appointment and even sent instructions on parking and how to locate their salon. So so helpful! First impression was how stylish and moody the decor/interior was. Love the look! Kat is super down to earth, genuine, and made my mom and I feel right at home. It was like talking to an old friend. Kat really took her time on my mom's haircut and made her hair so cute! Finally! Someone who can satisfy my mom with the hairstyle she wants. She couldn't stop smiling and looking at her hair. We can't wait to come back! Thank you Kat and Leila for being awesome people!

    Lina M.

    Totally recommend coming here! I walked in feeling so nervous and ended up walking out feeling super confident. Kat did such an amazing job with my hair, not only was she good at cutting and styling my hair but she was also so sweet and attentive! I can't wait to come back!

    Fresh highlights, lowlights and K-tip extensions with Belami hair!

    I recently had my hair done by the very talented stylist, Lindsay at Pixiedot Salon. She has done my hair many times in the past and this time I flew all the way from DC to have her do my hair. She's just that amazing! Her hair vision matches mine perfectly and her expertise allowed me to have perfect blonde highlights and low lights that perfectly compliment my skin tone (and sunny demeanor). I always receive so many compliments after Lindsay does my hair. Where she really stands out and what brings me back from such a distance, is her skill set with K tip extensions. She knocks it out of the park! I've been through the run of different types of extensions but the precision with which her k tips are installed are just, chef's kiss! They blend seamlessly with my hair's color and the length and volume are so natural but always make me feel that extra special. Not only is Lindsay a skilled stylist but she's such a sweet person. She instantly makes you feel like a friend that she's known forever. She always has the coolest stuff to talk about and keeps the appointment light and fun. She genuinely cares about her clients and their happiness with the final results. I highly recommend Lindsay for any of your highlight and extension needs. She truly is the best in the business.

    Cut by Kat (don't mind the color the lighting was weird as we were outside)
    Layla L.

    I feel like everyone gives their stylist five stars and it's mostly because they enjoy their conversation and they're friendly. Kat is excellent at what she does (she's a cool person too). She's a perfectionist, and takes her time with my hair. She's constantly educating herself, which is a sign of a good stylist. She also has excellent taste, and I can trust her when I'm not quite sure what I want. She's pricey but worth it.

    The salon is the perfect space! Gorgeously designed! Lindsay Norsa has been working with me on gray blending. I'm beyond happy! She's so talented and knows her stuff. Stylist for life!!

    Beautiful salon
    Martha J.

    Thank you to Lindsay for giving me all my hair dream goals. She's the sweetest and so honest about what's best for my hair which I appreciate so much. I completely trust that I will always have healthy and beautiful hair when I see her. Pixie dot is such a sleek salon. I feel so relaxed coming here. The chairs are comfy and all the pieces inside feel intentional , honestly one of the coolest salons I've been in (:

    Lindsay is a AMAZING at what she does! Love her sweet, genuine energy. She has the skill and cares for keeping your hair health more than anything! I had a long search for the right person to give me exacty what I want without ruining my hair. My hair was unbelievably perfect for my birthday!! Completely trust her with my hair :)

    before/after hair by Lindsay @ Pixiedot Salon SD

    I've been coming to Lindsay for years and honestly, she just gets more incredible. Mixes and blends my grays, takes me full platinum, gives me perfect layers or flawless blunt bob -- this lady can do it all. And she's the easiest person to feel comfortable sitting with no matter what state your hair is in when you see her. I can't say enough good things about her, go see for yourself! Here's my real life before/after pic for proof ;)

    I'll start by saying I am super picky when it comes to hairstylists and always hesitant to try someone new but am super grateful to have found Lindsay. I live in SF and will always make it a point to stop and see her whenever I'm in SD. She absolutely nails my blonde every time - honestly, she outdoes herself each visit! Lindsey (+the salon) has an incredible energy/vibe and you can really tell she loves what she does and cares deeply about her clients. Highly highly recommend Lindsey for all your hair needs ‍

Since I had box dye in my hair, he informed me it would be an extra $70 for a color correction. After getting price estimates from other salons, this seemed like a decent price for my budget. I did my research and looked over his website, Yelp reviews, etc. and the photos impressed me and led me to believe he would produce the balayage I wanted. I didn't mind the price for everything I was getting. I sent David photos of how I wanted my hair a few months before I scheduled the appointment. I have been saving up money and planning this treatment for five months which is perhaps why I'm so upset about the original results from my first appointment. When I walked in he briefly welcomed me and then immediately asked me what I wanted done. Since I've been planning this treatment for so long I had a Pinterest album of similar balayages (not to mention he already had the photo in our thread). He took one glance and got started which made me nervous but I trusted him as a professional. Throughout the treatment there was no communication regarding color, length cut, or anything like that. We sat in silence for 80% of my 3 hr. appointment. We made small talk and I asked him about after care, what he was putting in my hair, etc. He curled my hair and when I turned around and saw my hair for the first time I noticed it was WAY lighter than I expected, but I did like it. I left the salon happy. But I never curl my hair so when I saw it natural (wavy/straight), I could see how messy and amateur it looked. There were chunks reaching up to my roots and he basically dyed the bottom half of my hair a rainbow of blonde colors. NOT a balayage. I left a short review on the website and he text me shortly after with a long reply. I sent him photos of how my hair looked and the photo I originally sent him of what I wanted. He offered to fix it for free, so I went back in. Before my appointment he text me to confirm and said "Would be great if you could take down your review," but I'm glad I waited until after the second appointment to review him again. This time the communication was better, however now that a day has passed I see that my hair is still not where I want it to be since he bleached the whole bottom half and effectively made it difficult to achieve a balayage with just toner. I do understand that I did tell David I liked my hair in the salon because at that point I was fed up and wouldn't bother to have him fix it since he already comped this appointment and spent his time fixing it. Overall it looks much better now and is healthy after I cut 4 inches off (which I did to get rid of the dead bleached hair), but I am still going to get it fixed by another hair dresser. Not only that but I asked him for long layers in my hair cut but my hair is all one length. At the end of the day, if you go to David, just make sure you are clear about what you want because otherwise from what I can tell in other reviews he is a good hairdresser.

I'll admit I'm not the easiest client--my hair is extremely coarse, thick, and often damaged, and I'm not always the most punctual. Despite these challenges, Nicole always treats every appointment with care, patience, and precision.

I've worked with many stylists over the years, but none have come close to the level of quality and consistency Nicole provides.

During the consultation, she told me that my blonde highlights got darker because of "mineral buildups" in my hair from hard water, and she recommended to do a "CPR treatment" following by applying a toner to bring back the blond color (which highlights got darker and more yellow over time). She said that this treatment plan would make my highlights lighter and blonder again. I made the actual appointment, when the proposed treatment was done. After 30 minutes of sitting under the heat with the treatment applied, she washed out the "CPR treatment" 3 times!!!, scrubbing my scalp and later she told me (when I had the skin reaction) that she used a PH 9 shampoo, which is apparently (I'm reading now about it) harsh, and is disruptive to the hair and scalp. Then, she applied the toner, then a leave-in conditioner, that needed to be washed out due to some skin reaction. When she was working on washing it out, she scrubbed my scalp so viguorusly, that I screamed from pain to stop her doing it so harshly. Later in the afternoon, I started to feel an inflammatory type of severe pain on the back of my scalp. It got worse since yesterday and I don't know what really happened to my scalp, skin, tissue, or nerve, but whatever injury happened, it is extremely painful. Regarding the result of the treatment, nothing that promised was achieved, my hair feels like it got a little darker and making my highlights blonder didn't happen. Kayla told me after drying my hair that she was surprised that her treatment plan didn't work on my hair. What is much worse than not achieving the promised result is the severe pain on the back of my scalp.
