If you are looking for a hair artist who truly works magic, look no further than Lanh!…read more She was able to squeeze me in for a last-minute appointment on a Sunday. Even though she was finishing up with the client before me, I barely had to wait at all when I arrived. I went with a wet cut (layers in the front with curtain bangs) and style, and I cannot recommend this option enough. Lanh is amazingly talented. She takes a look at your current hair situation, suggests what will actually look best, and is completely honest and realistic about your hair goals. The blowouts? Absolutely gorgeous! I honestly did not know my hair could look or feel this good. She removed almost all of my damaged ends, leaving my hair feeling healthier and looking so much more voluminous than before. I left the salon loving my cut so much. Lanh is officially my go-to!

I first met Kayla back in 2018 when she was still working at a different salon. As a busy working…read moremom, it's hard for me to find time for self-care, and getting my hair done every 3 months is usually the only thing I make time for. Because I don't get many opportunities to relax, I truly appreciate every appointment with Kayla. She's so gentle that I almost always end up taking a quick nap while she's doing my hair! My favorite part is when she washes my hair. Her amazing head and neck massage is such a relaxing treat. One thing I really love about Kayla is that she knows how to read her clients. She lets me enjoy the quiet and doesn't fill my time with unnecessary small talk like some salons do. Those few peaceful hours are exactly what I need. That's why I've stayed with her all these years and even followed her when she opened her own salon. I've also trusted her with my mom, my husband, my two boys, and several friends. They all love her work, and I always get compliments on my hair. On top of that, her salon is always clean, welcoming, and beautifully maintained. She's also incredibly thoughtful and always offers coffee or a drink to make her clients feel comfortable. My only advice: book your appointment well in advance because she's that good--and she's almost always fully booked!

absolutely horrible experience. idk if its a Vagaro scheduling issue if thats what we're calling it…read moreor simply unprofessional stylist. Woke up early today Saturday to take my mother for her first ever hair appt scheduled for 9. We get there 9:12 (i believe) and theres a stylist there already working. States the stylist Sarah is on her way. To me is a red flag as if youre doing color & highlights your station would at least be prepped already.. we waited sitting there till 9:45 hoping she would show up..never showed up. The stylist there was kind enough to call her again (no answer) and offered my mom help but i declined. We set this appointment up for her as we have a party later today and had the time slot specifically for this. Waste of time & waste of a drive to sit there for about 40 minutes hoping she would show. This literally ruined the day. Didnt get a follow up call or nothing. Like i said idk if its a schedule issue or something that i did on my end wrong? but i have the screenshot of the email & confirmation of the appt for today.

As I was looking for a place to get my hair done in the area, I stumbled upon this on Yelp and the…read morereviews looked really nice. I gave a call and spoke with Rheina -- she is such an angel!! She was so patient, helpful, and so knowledgeable on how to help just based on the information I gave over the phone. She was able to get me booked and then my Mom on Mother's Day. They are usually closed on Sunday but she was SO kind to come in just for her. My Mom felt so special and relaxed in the chair. Sooo relaxed that she took a nap. When it was my appointment, I felt so seen/understood! Ive never had a stylist before, every-time I got my haircut it was strictly business and no conversations were had. Whereas, Rheina was a whole different experience. She really wants to get to know her clients and made me feel so welcome from the get-go. Also, I didn't even know this when I booked here but this establishment is Filipina women-owned (Daphne) and Rheina is also Filipina too. As a Filipina-women, I felt so happy and at home being surrounded by such genuine, warm, and talented women!! The ambience and amenities offered here were so beautiful and well-maintained. I definitely felt pampered. Also, shoutout to Jack (Daphne's dog) for being the sweetest little guy that kept coming for pets/scratches. So cute!

I highly recommend Renae if you're looking for someone who is skilled, kind, and considerate.

image plus in the lion shopping plaza has been my go-to hair salon since i was in elementary school…read moreif that's any indicator of how on-point the cuts here are. the vibe matches the rest of the lion supermarket (a little dated). however, the prices are so much more reasonable than any other hair salon i've been to that'll do trendy cuts. i always get my haircuts with annie, who is super sweet and NAILS curtain bangs with layers for asian hair. everyone speaks english here, they accept credit card, and you don't need an appointment, so there's literally no downside. (i guess no hair washing, but ngl at $50 for a woman's haircut do you really expect them to wash your hair lol) if you're in newark/fremont area and are looking for a new hair salon, i swear by this spot -- annie has literally never let me down.

The cut came out exactly how I hoped, clean, flattering, and easy to style. She also did my eyebrows and absolutely nailed them. She was really thoughtful and conscious about helping me grow my brows out, shaping them in a way that still looked natural without taking too much off and giving advice on what to do to get them where I wanted them. I appreciated how intentional and careful she was instead of just overdoing it. The whole experience was comfortable and professional, and you can tell she genuinely cares about her work. She is really kind and friendly and makes you feel at ease. I'll definitely be coming back and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great cut and brow work.

Really happy with my haircut at Essence Salon with Yessenia!…read more Booked a haircut appointment with Yessenia through the website for a Tuesday afternoon. I asked for a rounded haircut with lots of layers and face-framing pieces and I showed her my inspo photos as well. She first washed my hair and then got started on the cut. Yessenia did an amazing job! She was friendly and professional and gave me exactly what I requested. I wasn't sure whether to go with lighter or heavier curtain bangs/face-framing pieces, and she knew exactly what would suit me when she suggested sticking with lighter face framing. She also somehow managed to style my frizzy Indian hair perfectly without using much tension on the brush, which was shocking to me. Overall, I had a very positive experience with Yessenia and Essence Salon and will definitely be returning!

From the start, she…read morelistened carefully to every detail I shared and took the time to go through my inspiration photos with me, making sure we were on the same page before she even picked up the scissors. I originally booked this appointment last minute after another stylist canceled on me the day before a trip - and honestly, I'm so grateful that happened, because I would've never found Grace otherwise. Sometimes things really do work out the way they're supposed to. She absolutely killed my haircut. I have curly/wavy, thick hair, and she knew exactly how to work with it - something that's hard to find. The shape, the movement, everything came out better than I imagined. Also, the vibe was amazing - super welcoming, relaxed, and just overall such a great energy the entire appointment. Grace is also genuinely so sweet, which made the whole experience even better. Safe to say Grace is officially stuck with me as a client. Highly recommend her if you're looking for someone who really knows what they're doing, actually listens, and creates an amazing overall experience.

Before and after with Sheila…read more It's been so long since I've done anything to my hair. It's been since 2017! I found Sheila through Google then Instagram. I loved the work she posted on IG and reached out via text. I sent her what I was looking for and she was super responsive, helpful and nice! We scheduled a consultation and prices what I wanted out into 2 sessions and went through the steps of what she would do. My first session was a cut and dye I had asked to try and match my natural color as close as possible and she did! It was almost identical! I then we scheduled the highlights. I did give her an idea of what I wanted but told her to go with the flow. And it came out so good! I love her work and will be back! Thanks again Sheila! This Mama feels brand new. (Pic with Red door was before my sessions with Sheila, my natural color before cut, dye and highlight)

Needless to say, Kelly was patient and understanding, listening to my vent about my hair and experience from the previous salon. She was knowledgeable and I trusted her judgment and suggestion.
