I started getting my haircut by Thau at Right Style Salon during the pandemic. I had grown an epic mop of hair after a year of no cuts. She took great care of me and gave a sharp look. It easily compares with friends who get $65 cuts. Several of them have started going to her. I especially appreciate the care she takes with scissors and specialized trimmers. Paying precise attention to eyebrow and ear hair. Thau finishes the experience with a steaming hot fragrant towel. You get a delicious little head and neck massage too! Right Style is located directly across the street from Peet's coffee on Market Street in the Castro. Go to the website to book on line. Super easy! read more

Thao and Long truly are the best of the best. Grateful to have stumbled onto this place. Always leave feeling my best. Thank you.

I've been coming to Thoa for haircuts for well over 5 years. She's great. She used to work on the Haight. Her new place is all hers and easy to get to on public transportation. I'm always happy with the cut. She does a great scalp massage too! Highly recommend this place. read more

Right Style Salon - Appointment QRG - Hair Salons Near Me - San Francisco, California

Thao is the best! I've been coming here for over 2 years now and she's awesome. Precise in manner and effortless in expertise. I like myself more (because of the slick haircuts) thanks to her. read more

I love getting my hair cut here with Thao! I live out of town in Las Vegas, but always stop here to get a haircut when I'm in San Fran to visit family. My hair grows in different directions and she always pays attention and does an excellent job blending my hair and evening it all out. The hot towel wipe down at the end leaves you feeling clean and refreshed. My brother came along with me this time and got his haircut from Long and he loved it as well. He said it was the best haircut he's had in 10 years. We both highly recommend!! read more

I almost never leave a bad review, but I have to say that the man cutting my hair here fully butchered my hair -- which is almost impressive given that my cut is about as simple as it could get (buzz on the sides and back, trim on top). Maybe some people struggle with curly hair (I'm about a 3c) but it's so uneven there are tufts of different lengths and...it's just shockingly bad. Frankly I can cut my own hair better than this and will be doing my best to salvage it before the wedding I'll be in next weekend. read more

My daughter and I went to Right Style (steps away from Beck's where we were staying) to get same-day blowouts for my daughter's wedding. The owner, Thao, did a fabulous job. She even cut and styled my daughter's hair in an amazing retro flip. Very reasonably priced, too. Highly recommend. read more

To be quite honest I loved this barber shop until very very recently. The women who cut my hair and greeted me seemed very friendly and pleasant. The hair cutting experience was one in a million. Honestly was my go to barber shop for an actual hair styling versus a fade or taper. After letting my hair grow out more I came to find out the woman who cut my hair left a large V in the front of my head. Now on first glance or when wearing my hair normally its unnoticeable. However once my hair is laid down or wet you can clearly see where the damage to my hair is done. Which brings me to suttle racism. It does exist and is usually the go to for most people being that being overtly racist in most circles makes you a social leper. I did think that things were fine at this particular location only to find out afterwards that it may of been a façade or a charade. What would of been an easy 5 review went down to a 1 star. This is one of the reasons I don't get back tattoos or any tattoos where you can't clearly see what's being done because well you never know right? Overall this place is now NOT a great place to go if you're of African decent. While other places may or may not be overly enthused about your business this location will take your money but get extremely cavalier with the job that was requested. There are not too many good barbers in The City which I would recommend going to from my experience I would leave SF to get your hair cut unless you have a decent sized bank roll and able to pay $60+ for a fade and a taper. As you can see from my other reviews I have not had the most pleasant experiences lately in The Bay Area...However! I write these reviews based on my experience so that others will benefit from the experiences that I have. But always do your own research! read more

Alright people of Yelp - I actually truly believe I just got the best haircut of my life here at Right Style Salon in Castro, SF. I am terrified of getting haircuts. I feel like it can be a gamble to really communicate exactly what you're envisioning and to get the feedback from your barber whether it's feasible/aesthetic. As you can imagine, I was a little anxious walking in for my appointment, especially because I have been growing out my hair and didn't want to lose the progress I had made for it over the past few months. Well I had nothing to worry about. Lily was my barber and from the moment I stepped in, she knew exactly what I needed. I literally didn't even have to tell her, she already knew. And the entire time she's so careful and patient, taking her time to blend and explain what is happening. There were a couple walkins lined up which I thought might pressure her to go faster but she took her time and made sure my cut was exactly as I wanted. They're actually such nice people and this place was amazing. Thank you Lily and Thao!!! Editing just to add more details - hot towel massage at the end - 28$ without tip for mens haircut - such a great deal - could easily go for like 2x that anywhere else around the area - walk ins are welcome read more

Just as the name of this salon RIGHT STYLE, i love it. Thao is a great hair stylish, very friendly and always giving her 100% making sure I love it. Came all the way to SF from Oakland and it was worth it. Thank you for the cut Thao , you have earn yourself a loyal client will see you next month read more

We are regulars at Right Style salon and happily stop by to see Thao, even just to say hi. Our usual order is a Men's Haircut and a Children's Haircut. As a busy parent, it's great that we can both have our hair cut at the same salon/barber. I've found a lot of places willing to work with children as clients; however, few are equipped to do it well. Thao has a special pad that my toddler loves to sit on, and he likes looking around her cute salon while attempting to sit still during his haircut. Thao works quickly and thoroughly, and she always treats our son with some delicious candy at the end of his haircut. For my Men's Haircut, Thao always listens to my preferences and asks for clarifications while she is doing her work. She doesn't plow ahead and ask forgiveness, which is important to me as the person that needs to wear the style afterwards. Also, one of my favorite parts of her service is the hot towel massage at the end. It's super relaxing and gives me a moment to escape the demands of life. I highly recommend Thao and Right Style Salon! Tell your friends, too! read more

Thao is absolutely great! She was able to fit me in, last minute, before the second lockdown. Even though I just needed a quick haircut, Thao really took her time on my hair and did an amazing job. The salon is newly remodeled and very inviting. It feels like a cute neighborhood hair boutique, but without the high prices. Thao really provides a unique experience. She ends the haircut with a hair wash or hot towel head massage. I definitely recommend Right Style Salon and Thao! read more

I had an excellent experience at this salon last night. Highly recommend it! Going to make it my regular place now, as my salon of almost 20 years closed about a week after the lockdown started. in March First haircut since before March & my hair was a real mess. Now it's orderly again. Thanks Thao! read more

What I really appreciate about this place is you get personalized service! I've been to a few places in the Castro and this one has the best to offer. The hot towel and massage service is super relaxing & my favorite part! Free snacks and the owner is genuine. If you haven't tried this place you probably won't go anywhere after. Cheers read more

Thao was attentive to the way I wanted the my hair cut, listening to my descriptions, and delivered perfectly. Very happy with the result!

A haircut for under $50 within walking distance of my home?! What an amazing steal! Pretty happy with how my hair looks and the interaction overall. I was a bit nervous to try out this salon given I am a female and the low number of reviews by females (only 1-2 others at this point), but the price point got me to try this place out and I'm happy I did. My hair profile: long, straight, thick black hair (highlighted brown) Asked for: long layers and long bangs along with thinning out Thao was meticulous and thorough with the hair cut (the haircut took an hour while other salons usually take 30 mins). I'm surprised at how natural she made the layers looked. Usually, after a haircut, it takes a few days for the hair to grow out and look a bit more natural but I walked out of the salon looking natural. Miscellaneous details: I called on a Sunday morning around 10AM and she was able to accommodate me at 10:30AM. She was the only hair stylist working when I went in. She gave some recommendations such as coming in every 3 months for maintenance and also that I should wash my hair before coming in. Also she gives you a bit of a head/face message as she's washing your hair, so that's pretty nice. read more

Love this Salon! Super central in the Castro and both cuts I've gotten have exceeded expectations! As long as I'm living here I'll always come here for a cut read more

Worst haircut in my life. I asked them to leave my length, give some layers on top, and I wanted bangs. He cut off all of my hair length, a years worth of growing, and my bangs are so horrible. I'm literally having panic attacks over how BAD this hair is. Please don't go here if you even care about your hair in the slightest. read more

This is thus far my best experience! I like to add color to my hair, and was not thinking of switching from blond to a gun metal grey. She is truly phenomenal. She makes you feel comfortable, and is a delight to good service. read more

Thao is my go to lady for my hair cut in the city. After six years away from the city I never got a good hair cut. So as soon as I got back to the city my wife told me to go to see Thao and get my hair fixed right away.. so I went. Now I feel like a six years young me! Thanks Thao! read more

Thao is really friendly and he made a great haircut for me. Highly recommend I will be back for my next time

Thao took a horrible head of hair and turned it into terrific. She's a real magician. I've found the perfect place to have my hair cut!

I found the service at the salon to be first rate and very attentive. My stylist went above and beyond my expectations.

Just this: No one has ever said anything to me about my haircuts, not in many years. But in the past several weeks, 8 friends have complimented me on my "new look". Thao is great -- she's friendly, and does a fantastic job. And the warm towel and neck massage at the end of the cut is wonderful. Thank you Thao. read more

I was walking down Market Street, on my way to Joe's Barber Shop, and noticed Right Style Salon. It looked clean; two barbers were there, and no customers. I asked how much was a haircut -- $30,00. The price was $40.00 at Joe's, and these people needed business. I sat down and got a great haircut from Don, who is there two days a week, Tuesdays and Wednesdays. It was a great haircut, followed by a little neck and shoulder massage. Well, the whole experience was great -- no waiting, perfect haircut, nice added little massage. I have found a gem! read more

Such a great work, always on time, patience, the place is clean, always welcome, happy and making sure you leave when you are super happy! Highly recommended!! read more

Right Style Salon - Blue Faux hawk - Hair Salons Near Me - San Francisco, California

Right Style is a gem - not only the best haircut I've found in SF (I'm picky) but also really affordable ($30 for a gents cut) and fast. Thao, the owner, does most of the cuts / treatments herself. She's an entrepreneur who managed to keep things afloat through the vivid lockdowns and works 6 days a week straight until late... always with a smile. Support her and get a great looking cut that grows out perfectly - Thao really knows how to cut hair! read more

It's always a little anxiety producing when you try a new hair salon, but I had my first cut in this place today and am very happy with the result. Thao knows what she's doing and takes care to do it right. Her shop is clean and inviting. After almost six months, I presented her with a ragged mess, and she cleaned me up good. I entered as a shaggy caveman and left as a well groomed caveman. Her prices are not outrageous. She was also very personable, and finished me off with a warm towel neck rub. I highly recommend her shop and her expertise. read more

I could give this place 10 out of 5 stars, I would. They literally saved my hair. Like brought it back from the dead, zombie style, straight up SAVED MY HAIR. I got a horrible balayage a few weeks ago that fried my hair, and she was able to cut around the dead ends while keeping my hair long and reshaping it perfectly. I am now a customer for life. Do yourself a favor and have your hair cut here. THANK YOU!! read more

Angel is the best! I've been a client of his for over a year and the quality of his haircuts is the best. He always takes great care to make sure I'm happy with everything. Loyal client right here. The salon is in a great location right on Market street. Comfy place with great people. read more

Can't recommend Thao and her shop highly enough. Haircuts start with a shampoo and conditioner treatment. (You may also get a quick but relaxing scalp massage as part of it!) When it comes the haircut, Thao's precision is phenomenal. She really takes her time and has more cutting tools than I've ever seen in my many years of haircuts. And, I like the fact that everything in the shop is brand new. Thao has created a warm and inviting atmosphere to spend 30 mins getting a perfect cut. Give it a try! read more
