It's taken me years to find someone to cut my hair properly (thick Asian hair) and I finally found Naz. She's been cutting my hair for a couple years now and I have zero complaints. She knows her stuff and cuts it exactly like the pictures I show her. The salon itself is nice and they have a good range of products to purchase. I love that they offer tea and coffee. There's always parking which is a huge plus. I will keep coming back as long as Naz is there. read more

Just left Salon Sue La Rue and I'm OBSESSED with my new haircut! Naz's expertise and dedication truly shine through - I got SO many compliments! A bunch of friends at a recent meet and greet raved about her, and I see why! Naz listened to exactly what I wanted, explained everything, and asked all the right questions. Highly recommend! If you're looking for someone who'll get your hair just right, look no further. read more

I have been coming here and seeing Milana (Mila) for several years. I get compliments on my hair after seeing her every time!! Recently I came in with my 14 year old daughter who wanted highlights.

Naz is an amazing stylist who always delivers -- I can show her a picture, and she makes my hair look even better than the photo. She really knows how to cut and style thick hair, leaving it light and simple to manage. Booking an appointment online is easy, and she always makes the experience fun with great conversation! read more

Hiii, Here to say how happy I am to have found Naz and this salon. I told her my story- I've basically been going to one person for my haircuts for the last 25 years of my life and he moved to New Mexico so I've been in desperate need for a haircut. I did that crazy thing where I went to Europe and got it chopped off ( I was so disappointed with my hair but there was also a language barrier) anyways, finally let my hair grow out enough so I can find someone local to cut it's after doing research for about a year or two ( I know... crazy) I found Naz. I'm not going to lie- I WAS SO NERVOUS!! Naz was so welcoming and such a sweetheart! I sat down and felt like I knew her for some time now she really went into detail and got to learn my hair before doing anything to it and I could just tell- she knew what she was doing! I have thick Indian hair and a lot of texture so it's hard to work with but wow, she really made my day. I was pretty much in tears in my car because I was so happy. Thank you again Naz, see you soon! read more

Renata has been handling my hair for over 30 years. She has always listened carefully, cut and colored deftly and is a pleasure to see and talk to. My naturally curly hair, still topping my shoulders, is now grey and she keeps it silvery and soft, with no brassiness. She recommends the correct products to keep at its best. I would not see anyone else . . . . my trusted and true friend. read more

Naz is fantastic! I came here based on reviews for Naz and I was 100% satisfied when I left. I have long hair that requires layers and movement and Naz cut and styled my hair exactly as I hoped. I will definitely be back. Thank you Naz! read more

Great cut and color by Jenny! She totally nailed what I was looking for and perfected every strand :)

I have been coming to Sur La Rue to get my hair cut by Naz for the past couple of years. She has been really great, really listens to what I want in terms of my haircut and has been so consistent over the years. I highly recommend Naz! read more

I recommend Mila to everyone. Service is fast and you can tell that she's an expert. Finally found my hair salon and stylist.

I needed a self-care moment and just wanted a wash and blow dry. Jenny to the rescue! Thank you so much for your lovely company and your advice regarding my hair. I will be back! read more

I've been going to Mila Schnayder for years now! Her techniques are always the best for hair dye and hair cuts and I always get rave reviews on whatever she's done. read more

I had an excellent experience recently at this salon. Naz responded to my inquiry on the website within a very brief time. We scheduled an appointment for a haircut. Naz is very friendly, knowledgeable and professional. The haircut was terrific. I was interested in having low lights done so she referred me to Colleen. We tested my hair for a while to accurately anticipate good results. Colleen did a wonderful low light color. I'm very happy with both the haircut and the color. I highly recommend Naz and Colleen for your cut or color. read more

I have been going to Salon Sur La Rue for several years now and have enjoyed it. My hair stylist, Mila, has been coloring, cutting and styling my hair the entire time and she is just fabulous! I have been so happy with the work she does! Mila collaborates with you in determining what to do with your hair. She pays attention to detail and really listens! Her experience shows and I highly recommend Salon Sur La Rue and especially Mila! Thank you read more

Naz is absolutely amazing! I just moved to the area and was looking for a new hairstylist and came across Naz, it's safe to say that she has given me the best haircut I've had in many many years. I am so glad I found her, she is truly gifted!! read more

This was my first time at this hair salon- conveniently located , clean and easy to find parking. Naz was my hairstylist and she's absolutely fantastic . She is experienced, talented and gave me an amazing hair cut . She took her time to understand what I had on my mind and did exactly what I requested for . Naz also has a fun upbeat personality which is a plus! read more

My experience with Sur La Rue was something amazing! I had request to get rid off yellow hair and make 3 layers of different shades come together, along with layers haircut. My hairstylist Mila went above and beyond to make my hair look gorgeous! It feels so fresh and maintained now, I have no words, just 1000 times thank you!!!

Thank you, Naz, for your vision & skills!!! She knows what is she is doing and her hands are magical!! Highly recommend Naz!! read more

Firstly, the place is so pretty and cozy! I had an incredible experience at Salon Sur La Rue with Naz. As someone with curly hair, I'm always cautious about haircuts since not every stylist knows how to handle curls properly. However, Naz did an exceptional job and gave me exactly the haircut I wanted. I absolutely loved it! Highly recommend, 11/10. read more

I NEVER recommend going here. The lady probably pulled half my hair out when brushing/blow drying it and splashed water all over me when washing it. I think her name was Milana. Just go somewhere else. read more

Salon sur la rue is a small but chic salon right on 41st Avenue in San Mateo. What makes this place special are the lovely hairdressers who work here. In the two time I've been here, they have men, older women and little kids coming in for haircuts, color, and style. Mila my hairdresser is great; she takes the time to ask you what you want - when my precious color was a little too light- she made it a shade darker. Prices seem reasonable. I paid $150 for a cut and color. They have great parking in front and Molly Stones is around the back from the shop, so if you need milk like I do, so easy to get all your chores done in one place! read more

I'm so happy I've found a new hair stylist in Mila. She took my overly dry, grey/orange/red/yellow -16-months-without-a cut-or-color hair and transformed it into an incredibly soft, gorgeous brown haircut of my dreams. I feel so fortunate to have found her and will definitely return from now on. read more

I got my haircut by Naz and let me just say she is amazing. She really listened to what I wanted and took the time to ask questions. She really made my vision come true and for the first time in a long time I feel like I found my go to hairstylist. I am not sure why someone would write a poor review. The inside was beautiful, all the other stylist were so nice and helpful. They offered me hot tea and the vibe was so warm and welcoming. I will definitely without a doubt come back again and again. Thank you for giving me such an amazing experience and haircut! read more

I recently moved to San Mateo and needed a new stylist/colorist, did some Yelp research and found Mila at Salon Sur La Rue. The Salon is in a great location with easy parking, and has a nice, inviting happy client atmosphere. I've already had a few appointments with Mila and can say I have found my new go-to hair person and place. I had the typical COVID (lack of) hair style and had let my color go bland. Mila was able to bring my color back to life and add completely natural looking highlights (balayage). My hair color has never looked this great! Her cuts are also so good that I can literally shake my hair out and step out the door. Mila is always on time and takes extra care to make sure she is capturing exactly what you want. I'm so glad I found her, and Salon Sur la Rue, and need look no further! read more

Naz is a fantastic hair dresser. She took time to listen, advised colors that suited my hair texture, skin tone and also recommended how I could manage my hair at home. Thank you Naz for the color recommendation, cut and treatment. My hair feels so much better, I love my cut! I highly recommend Naz to anyone looking for a hairdresser who is highly skilled, considerate and customer focused! read more

I came across this salon via yelp reviews and it did not disappoint. Moving to San Mateo and coming out of the pandemic and not getting my hair done in 2 years I needed to find a new salon to refresh my hair with some color and a good cut. I booked with Mila and can truly say I've found my go to salon and stylist from now on. She brought my hair back to life with a fabulous balayage and great cut, making the experience safe and enjoyable. read more

Such an amazing experience with Mila. I have been coming back to see her for a year now and I am always very happy with how professional she is and open to all my suggestions. I change my mind every time I come and she is great about giving me an honest feedback about what would work or not work for me. Regardless what style, color we end up deciding on, she makes sure my hair are healthy and not overtreated which is very important to me as my hair is really fine. During my last visit she has tried a new technique (can't remember the name) to achieve what I was asking for and wow...so happy with it! Attaching pic. read more

My first time at salon Sur La Rue. I decided to try based on the Yelp reviews and I'm very happy that I found Naz! She took the time to ask what I wanted with my hair, provided suggestions and recommendations on hair care and styling. Thank you Naz! Will certainly be back soon read more

First time in this salon. I trusted past Yelp reviews and was not disappoint Renata was my hairdresser. She did an amazing job with my highlights (full). I wanted something that looked natural and it's a success. She was very nice and professional, even asked second opinion to make sure. I was very pleased with the result and everyone kept complimenting my hair. read more

Today I was fortunate in having Renata "correct" the poor color highlights I had done at Barberia by Courtney four weeks ago. Top part of picture below is my hair after spending way too much $$$ at Foster City Barberia. Lower portion of picture is my hair color corrected by Renata. Renata works hard to listen and communicate with her clients. If appropriate, she recommends color, cut, product, etc. using her vast experience and training. Salon Sur la Rue has a great vibe with what appears to be a dedicated loyal customer following. read more

Sur La Rue has friendly professional hairdressers and nice interior but is too pricey. At the beginning, Milana quoted highlights + haircut+blow dry for $170. I asked to do only highlights ($110). Then we've overcame a little mix up in scheduling, and there I was in a chair. Milana is a very experienced hair stylist. Also, she wears hills and manicure every day, and she is pleasant to chat with. Nevertheless, she works without gloves when she does highlights, which might be a problem, as well as long nails don't help when washing the hair. By the way, the head washing station was one of the most uncomfortable I've ever experienced. I was pleased with the result sitting in the salon under the spotlight. Later I found out that the color looks different in other lighting conditions, so it is not the blond I'm happy with. It is not bad, but I have had better highlights before. When I asked Milana to give me a little trim, literally to cut a straight line, which took her about 2 minutes to do, she said that it will cost "a little more." Guess how much more it was? It was $65. Well, it doesn't sound like a transparent pricing to me. "A little more" is not $65. As the result I paid $175. Ridiculous. I feel like I haven't found my hairdresser yet. read more

Amy is still AMAZING. Just saw her to update my hair color, and was having a very emotional day. She listened (awesome) and gave me pretty pretty hair. C'est bien, oui? GO SEE AMY, she's awesome. Okies? read more

I have been going to the owner Amy for my hair. She is a master & SO patient with my high maintenance brunette hair that loves to get brassy. She never gives up until my hair is just how I like it (sometimes requiring several passes). As a perfectionist in my own business, it's nice to have someone with equally high standards. As you can see from my pic....she's an artist, mixing up colors for my hair needs...not just generic one color. The studio is beautiful and warm. All the stylists are friendly. It's not stuffy & intimidating. I usually would go crazy sitting for 3 hrs, but I actually look forward to it. You can't go wrong!!! read more

I was looking for someone close to home and came across this Salon. As I was reading the reviews it became quite clear that Mila was the choice. I saw her yesterday just for a hair cut and I love it. I got a trim with some layers. She talked to me about my hair in general and also about what I wanted done. We talked about some highlights for my hair and she mentioned just have a few partials put on top which was great because I don't have the funds to do more nor do I want to do more. AND had a nice glass of white wine, I'm sold ha $55 hair cut - check or cash only I'll update my review once I get my highlight in two weeks read more

It was my first time at this salon and I went to see Jenny for the works! Highlights, base color and cut. She is awesome!! She listened to what I wanted and would ask questions along the way to make sure I was happy with the progress. I couldn't have hoped for a better experience than I had yesterday with Jenny!! Thank you, thank you! read more

I had a great experience getting my hair cut at Salon sur la rue. I just moved to the area and thought I'd give it a try since the fleur de lis reminded me of Montreal, where I was moving from. So glad I stumbled on this place! Renatta is a wizard and brought my hair back to life. It's much healthier looking now, still very long, yet seemed like she barely cut any off. She was also super helpful and gave me loads of suggestions of things to do around the Bay while I'm here. A génial (awesome) experience all around :) read more

1) The hairstyles and cuts are geared toward older or more traditional hairstyles. I'm a 30-something, not super trendy in my clothes or style and yet would not come back. 2) my haircut was uneven, too short and I initially wanted to come back to have it fixed but after several days of unsuccessfully trying to find a time that worked for both the stylist and me, I gave up. I went to another salon, paid more $$$ for them to fix my haircut. Sorry, this place is just not for me. read more

I really like this unpretentious salon! Milana has cut my hair a couple times now. Not only is she fast, but she cuts it in an natural style that holds over a long time. She cut my hair to bring out its wave, and in a way that suits my face. Ive never had so many compliments! read more
