Matthew Benson is a wizard…read more I have very fine, thin, soft hair that never seems to grow as long as I'd like, and it's been years since I've had a haircut I truly loved. Most cuts either fall flat or just don't work, and over time I started feeling like I hated my hair. I stopped doing much with it because nothing ever felt right, and that doesn't feel good when you don't feel your best. Matthew changed that completely. He understood exactly what my hair needed and gave me a cut that feels effortless, looks great, and actually makes me happy when I look in the mirror. For the first time in years, I'm genuinely excited about my hair. I couldn't be more grateful.

I just moved from the Peninsula to Santa Rosa so I knew that my hair stylist had to be a good fit for me. I was with my last one for 7 years. Finding Krystal was fate. She really understood what I wanted and the vibe I was going for. She's easy to talk to and it's like hanging out with a friend who happens to have a very special skill. Krystal cut my hair and gave me a balayage. It's perfect! I've gotten so many compliments and, more importantly, I feel confident. If you're new to the area or just looking for a new stylist, don't sleep on this place. Krystal is amazing and I'm so lucky to have found her!

I wanted to change my hair color to something that would blend beautifully with my natural color. Teralyn is truly an artist with both color and cut. She took her time to really listen and understand exactly what I was looking for, offered wonderful advice, and delivered results that exceeded my expectations. My hair color looks amazing -- natural, vibrant, and perfectly blended. The salon itself feels like a relaxing spa getaway -- welcoming, calm, and luxurious. The entire atmosphere made the appointment feel special rather than just another errand. It's been a long time since I actually looked forward to going to the hair salon, but Teralyn and this salon have completely changed that for me. I can't recommend them highly enough!

Cortney's skill at hair color is exceptional, not just because of her skill, but because she listens. A quality equally important as a hair stylist. My hair cut is spot on as well. She is a beautiful woman inside and out. The location of the salon is also wonderful, as it is in a shopping center, lots of parking. Cortney has a window corner station all by herself which is very pleasant, not to mention her adorable dog, who will greet you and make you smile the whole time you are there.

I would not recommend Hayley Schultz…read more I initially booked with her because I thought her work was beautiful, and my results were pretty. However my color completely faded in just three weeks after my appointment. When I reached out, I was immediately blamed for using "non-salon products" and denied any form of discount or correction. The issue is that I was never told, at ANY point, that the results depended on purchasing or using specific salon products. There was no verbal explanation, written policy, or disclaimer stating that using anything else would void any kind of guarantee. The products I used were clearly labeled sulfate-free and color-safe, + owned by a professional line, so it's unreasonable to suggest they alone caused such drastic fading. While some fading is expected with blonde, this was excessive and not consistent with what most clients would expect from a professional service. What stands out most is the lack of accountability and unwillingness to offer any kind of compromise. Instead of working toward a solution, I felt dismissed and blamed for something that was never properly communicated in the first place. To make matters worse, instead of continuing a professional conversation about resolving the issue, I was removed from her Instagram, which felt unprofessional and avoidant. A bit of high school level maturity on her part to be blatantly honest. I can't say that I am surprised with the maturity level. Due to the fact that while I was waiting to be sat in the chair, Hayley was bad mouthing a potential client to another hairstylist in the salon, in front of other clients. Not a very smart or professional choice to make infront of a new client about to get their hair done. Clear expectations, basic customer service, and integrity should be standard. Unfortunately, that was not my experience here whatsoever.

Even before I talk about the color I want to lift up that a) they use tech really well (I'm on Zoom calls from one end of the day to the other so picking up the phone and calling someone is super difficult for me most days). They responded to my inquiry through Yelp immediately, forwarded my request on to their stylists, and I had an appointment set up within a half hour max. Ended up with Stephanie and she was wonderful! While she was putting the color in I noticed she didn't apply any protective gel or vaseline ahead of time to protect my skin from the dye. I just figured, "Well, I'm not going to see anyone today, if I'm walking around with a dye headband, it's fine." Well, she didn't NEED to put anything on my skin to protect it because she's that good at what she does! The color came out great -- very natural and healthy looking, and really shiny. And not one drop of dye anywhere except for on the roots where it belonged. On top of all this, Stephanie was super nice, as was everyone who worked there. Loved the ambience, too -- the music was sort of 70s classic rock as was the decor. I'm hoping to be out in this area again in the coming year, and definitely plan to go back to them! Thanks, Stephanie!
