Love this salon. I always have such a great experience . It's beautiful, welcoming, and my appointments are always right on time. Amalya is my go-to stylist and she does my hair perfectly every single time -- I always leave with the best blowout. I also love the fashion shows playing while you're getting your hair washed -- such a fun, elevated touch. Couldn't recommend this place more! read more

Loved Edgar's work. Highly enjoyed the ambience the salon brings. 10/10 definitely going back again

So I was going to let this go, but I think it's actually necessary to bring awareness. I was scheduled to get my hair done with Eli. Turns out, he told me he would not be doing my hair that day, for various reasons. My issue is not that he refused to provide me the service I was scheduled for, it was the way he spoke to me. He was very loud and condescending, and went on and on about how much experience he had under his belt - 23 years to be exact. He actually mentioned his yrs of experience more times than I could count. My issue is, which that much experience under his belt I would expect for him to also have professionalism attached to all of the experience he claims to have. Instead, when I spoke to him about his treatment towards me that day, his "apology" to me consisted of "I'm sorry you took what I said wrong, but I didn't do that." Mind you, I mentioned my son was getting married, and that's why I was there. I needed to get my hair done for my son's wedding. He completely tossed that aside and showed zero professionalism in the way he behaved. I hope that this would be a valuable lesson for Eli, and the way he speaks to customers. Very rude, and poor attitude, as if it was the clients fault for not knowing hair the way he does. So yes, while the salon was nice, Eli was not. If you wish to go and have a good professional experience, I would NOT schedule with Eli. When I addressed the manner with the manager, she was very much in blind defense of her employee. Completely invalidated me as a customer - NOT how to keep your business open. You've been warned. read more

I've been going to Emily for years now! She knows exactly how I want my hair cut and takes great care of my hair. I recently just had a baby and kept up with my bi-annual haircuts during that time. Really gave my postpartum hair the love it needed! The vibes there are fantastic, everything is kept clean and you can request coffee as needed. read more

A little less than a year ago I reached out to Salon True wanting to go from box-dyed black hair to dirty blonde hair (which is incredibly difficult to do after years of box dye). They referred me to Sada, and I honestly could not be more grateful. From the very first appointment, Sada was realistic, patient, and so knowledgeable. She took the time to explain the process, what was achievable, and how we could lighten my hair safely over time. Every appointment since then, she has done an amazing job. My hair has stayed healthy, shiny, and strong throughout the entire process, which I truly didn't think was possible coming from box dye. She listens carefully to what I want and always gives honest advice that I trust completely. I have never left disappointed. On top of being incredibly talented, she's the nicest human and makes every appointment feel relaxed and fun. If you're thinking about lightening your hair or want someone who genuinely cares about keeping it healthy, Sada is absolutely the person to go to. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my hair. I have attached some photos of my hair from before we began (last year in May) and from my last appointment with her :) read more

Go see Emily!! I had such a wonderful experience with her. She's not only incredibly talented with hair but also one of the sweetest people you'll meet. From the moment I sat in her chair, she made me feel comfortable and we had such a great conversation. She truly listened to what I wanted and worked her magic to make me feel beautiful. I absolutely love how my hair turned out and I'll definitely be going back to see her. Highly recommend! read more

The customer service at this location was shockingly disappointing. My wife is currently pregnant and was placed on mandatory bed rest by her doctor (with a note), yet they refused to refund the deposit for a canceled appointment. She has been a loyal client here for years. The complete lack of compassion and flexibility in this situation was honestly appalling. Very disheartening to see a business treat a long-time customer this way during a medical situation. read more

I really wanted to like this place came here because of the reviews and were it's located ask for curls I came out from there with out, brushing out my curls, so my curls would last longer. I have not brushed them and this is how they look like came out from there at 2:0 it's 3:26 pm read more

I've been to Yeva many times and I absolutely love her blow drys. I called her last minute yesterday and she was already done for the day. She suggested for me to call the salon and book with someone else. I got super lucky Edgar was available and did my blow out. I have curly hair so it's really hard for my blow drys to last especially if I'm going to a party. He did an amazing job, he was very nice and professional. I would definitely recommend him and Yeva for blow outs and also other salon services. read more

I'd been loyal to the same hair person for years, so switching was nerve wracking. My go to stylist moved way too far, and I knew finding someone new would be a little scary. After some research, I narrowed it down to two salons and Salon True came out on top, no contest. The salon has the perfect mix of energy and elegance without any of that snooty vibe. Everyone there is warm and welcoming. I told them I needed a true pro with blondes, highlights, and extensions, and that's how I found Sada. She nailed it! My highlights are stunning, my extensions look completely natural, and honestly, I feel like I dropped a decade. Sada is not only incredibly talented but also super fun to chat which made the appointment fly by. If you want someone who truly listens, delivers gorgeous results, and makes you feel amazing while doing it, go see Sada. You'll leave smiling and flipping your hair like it's your best accessory! read more

I take back EVRYTHING I said regarding my last hair cut with Abdon. I came in telling him how I was so happy my last haircut with him helped my hair grow out long and thick. My hair was about 2-3 inches below my breasts, and I verbally said I wanted to keep my hair long and add layers, I just needed to get rid of some weight because it was starting to drop curls when I styled it. I even used my fingers to visually show him how much I wanted off and where I wanted my hair to land. I was VERY CLEAR. He got to cutting and proceeded to cut 7 INCHES OF MY HAIR OFF! 7 INCHES! A YEAR'S WORTH OF GROWTH. In no way do I feel like he listened to me at all, CLEARLY. When I called to requested a refund, which I will say I did get but I had to really be firm and push for it, the receptionist who was relaying messages from me to the owner and the manager, said that Abdon told them I said I wanted it around my breast plate. First of all who says breast plate?? Obviously he lied to cover himself because he royally messed up. Not only did he butcher my length but the face framing layers he added were uneven by TWO INCHES. When I finally spoke to the manager she said the owner would like to have me come in to fix it and get a partial refund and he wanted to see what was wrong with the hair cut overall. THE LENGTH AND THE FACT THAT HE TOOK OFF 7 INCHES IS WHATS WRONG WITH THE HAIRCUT...LIKE HELLO??????? They clearly were fighting against the refund but the fact that I received it means they clearly knew they were in the wrong. ZERO accountability and I feel like the owner just wanted me to come in so he could gaslight me. Mind you, I sent photos of my hair to the manager, before and after and the photo of the uneven layers. None of this experience felt like they wanted to actually make it right, they just wanted to save face. I was ready to be a regular and be a long term customer. Can't wait to look for a new salon in another year when I finally have my length back and need a hair cut because I can assure you its going to be a long time until I will need another. My hair was MASSACRED. Let me edit this based on the response I received. My initial reaction to him when he showed me my length was "why is it so short?" To be honest I have never had my hair butchered like this before and I was in shock. It took me sometime to process what happened and how short he took my hair. I am polite and always tip for services so no I did not exactly know what to do since I have literally never had a hairstylist do this to me before. We did have a detailed consultation at the beginning and I was VERY CLEAR...VERRRRYYYYY CLEAR about what I wanted. Maybe...just maybe he didn't do his job and LISTEN to me because if he did, and he thought for some reason I wanted my hair that short, based on everything I said about LOVING MY LONG HAIR, if he thought I wanted it that short, maybe he should confirm the length. I think it's pretty clear based on my reaction I did not get what I wanted and he did not do his job. Further more you didn't issue the refund in good faith. The photos are clear. I was wronged and deserved a refund. read more

I love this place! The cleanliness and customer service is amazing. I have thick curly hair and this is my second time doing my hair with Shantell! It lasted me a whole week looked fresh every day. Came back for round two. It's difficult finding people who can do hair like mine so I recommend her. Thank you Shantell!!! read more

I'd been going to the same salon for 5 years, so trying somewhere new made me nervous. The salon was recommended to me and they paired me with Sada since I'm a brunette wanting a softer base and natural balayage. I'm so glad I went! Sada took her time walking me through my options, explained everything before doing it, and made the whole experience feel easy. We softened my dark base and added a balayage, and I left looking noticeably more youthful. The color shift genuinely lifted my whole look. She was kind, attentive, and gave me a beautiful blowout! For any brunettes who are particular about their color, you're in great hands. read more

Before booking the salon called to review my hair concerns and I completed a form with my inspo as well. They then talked with the owner and ensured I was paired with a stylist that meets the needs I was looking for. This was such a professional touch and made me feel cared for! I ended up booking with Chantelle and she is amazing! I felt extremely heard with my hair concerns regarding my past experiences, my blonde and overall hair health. I now have a deeper understanding what my hair needs and why. Chantelle is extremely knowledgeable and even helped me create a new hair care routine with products that will address the issues. Her hair cutting skills are also amazing and you can tell she really pays attention to detail! I 100/10 recommend booking with her! read more

This salon is so aesthetically beautiful and clean! The service is amazing as well (tea, coffee, water). My hair stylist, Tara, did an excellent job!! I'm so happy with her work.

I was in dire need of a hair makeover and my best friend recommended to go to this salon specifically for Kamiah. I explained to her what I wanted and gave her reference photos to see if we can achieve the colors that I wanted for my super black fine hair. She executed flawlessly and my hair came out better than my reference photos. Kamiah was so sweet and very attentive. My first experience here at this salon was amazing because of her. To top it all off, she made a very yummy cappuccino and her vibes were immaculate. I found my forever hair girly read more

Sada is the best--I can't say enough good things about her. She completely refreshed my color in a way that makes me look younger and more modern without trying too hard, and she took such care to make sure my hair looked even healthier. The cut and styling are so cute--exactly what I needed. On top of that, she's just fun to be with, which makes the whole appointment fly by. I always leave feeling polished and confident. read more

Horrible, horrible, horrible. I went in to get a toner for my balayage and I left with super dark horrible looking dye job instead of the toner I asked for and it's way darker than what suits my skin tone. They told me I didn't have to pay but now I'm left calling around trying to fix my hair and everyone is booked. The worst dye job I've ever had. So sad read more

My sister kept ravving about Alyssa. She would say, "You HAVE to go to Alyssa." I'd say, "Okay, sure I'll check her out one day." Then after several months have passed and my sis says again, "You HAVE TO go to ALYSSA!" I prolong this for another while until the stars aligned and my sis was getting her touch up again and I happened to be dropping by her hair appointment to say hi. I guess I was meant to see Alyssa because the stars aligned and I needed to get my roots redone with highlights and she happened to have a last minute cancellation to her Saturday morning appointment. So I snagged that in a split second. I was so glad I finally got to see her to do my hair because she was not only personalble but an expert at her craft of giving me the grandest ash blonde highlights possible. She touched up my roots first to lighten my base a tad then gave me full highlights all the way around. She was to sum up, MAGICAL! I was introduced to her by my sister who's been coming to see her for her highlights and touch ups. I finally feel like I have someone to trust with my hair from now on. Can't wait to go back for my touch ups in several months. read more

I had a very unpleasant experience here in June. I saw Sada and she didn't even introduce herself, just walked over and said okay what are we doing. Then proceeded to try to convince me to go blonde after i said no multiple times and wanted to go darker. As a new client this immediately rubbed me the wrong way. Aren't you here to make me happy, not impose what you wish you could do to my hair on me? Made multiple comments about it throughout our appointment. She did eventually do the color I wanted but didn't clean it off my hairline / skin at all so when i got home i had dark brown dye stains along my forehead, around my ears / side burns & neck. also i asked for my bangs to be long enough to tuck behind my ears and she cut them very short i couldn't tuck them back for 2 months. layers were extremely choppy and uneven. as a level 5 im shocked with how bad this service was. go to anyone or anywhere else read more

Amalya is the absolute best. I'm so grateful for her. She did the most incredible color correction for me before my wedding after a traumatic experience at another salon. My hair was so dead and multi colored, but she somehow revived it. I've since been back to her multiple times and she impresses me with her attention to detail and skill. I also love the salon aesthetic and everyone who works there is so lovely. 10/10 would recommend. Thanks Salon True! read more

Due to a neck injury, I am unable to blow dry my hair or barely wash it right now, and I know salon true, has a great reputation and quality, so they were very kind enough to fit me in for a blow dry with Tara. It's amazing how a special person can make something like a blow dry make you feel like a worthy wonderful person for an afternoon. Not only is she very skilled, and she is, not everybody can execute a really high-level blow dry, but I asked for my roots to be a bit high, but basically a flat iron type look and she did it with just a blow dryer and she did it perfectly. She is also one of those rare humans that you come across who has a light about them and truly wants to make you feel good.. I look forward to returning to salon through for more treatments and other things from Tara ! Also, I believe her name was Lola at the front desk, she was so kind as was everybody else in there and it was on a Saturday ! Wonderful experience. read more

I was lucky to get my first Rick Henry haircut as a birthday treat at the end of January 2020 and I loved everything about it! The pandemic put a long pause in my return. When I was finally able to return, Rick welcomed me with his signature genuine smile that both lights up the room & makes you feel like you are his only client of the day (...even though his dance card is fully punched for the day, and he literally just returned from / or is about to jet-set around the world with some of the biggest superstar clients, person of the year & athletes) Rick is THE pro, and remains super authentic, chill & down to earth.. we can talk about our pets during the whole cut appointment (bonus...he's a huge animal-lover), and I leave with the best haircut each time! Rick listens keenly, advises without upselling, AND he doesn't cut shorter than requested (like many others do). His long layers slay as much as his pixie cuts. Most of all, Rick makes time and he is as kind as he is brilliant at his craft. I feel lucky & grateful each time I get to be in Rick's chair - truly a special treat! read more

I have came here twice and each time, I felt out of place. This is definitely a salon that has an aesthetic and if you don't fit into the mold, you're viewed differently. I had several other customers stare at me as if I don't belong. Regardless I needed a haircut on short notice. I intentionally chose a stylist who is also brown so they would understand my hair texture. The first time she was nice, did the job well and I left with a great blowout. The second time, she made a snarky comment to her coworker about her "just giving her anyone" and compented on my hair texture being frizzy. I have debated writing a review but it still leaves a bad taste. read more
