I've been looking to get my hair done for a long time. I emailed Sam and she emailed me within hours. Then a day after she called me to come in since someone had cancelled as I go in she was very welcoming and nice and we talked so much. She's very knowledgeable and she knows what she's talking about as well as all the products she offers. She asked me what I wanted and she did exactly that and much more I love my hair now and it feels so healthy. She also used complementary products on my hair I can't thank her enough I will from now on only go to her because she enabled me to love my hair again and get my confidence back thank you Sam read more

Sam is awesome. I have been a regular client of hers for a year and a half now. You can get your hair cut while drinking a beer and that's all you need to know. But really she is a great listener and is very professional. Sam does a great job and you can tell she is personally invested in you looking your best. read more

My first time getting a hair cut from Sam. Only went because my neice was so happy with her hair cut and she did great job. She listened to what I wanted and gave her input which we all know is important since she is suppose to be the professional. Love my cut, feels light and looks healthy , just the wash alone made it feell great. Going back in June for something new. Thanks Sam read more

Sam did an amazing job on my hair! I came in with a yellow-y bleached blonde after a few disasters at other salons, hoping I could get it to more of a natural looking ashy blonde. Not only did she get it back to looking natural, but she also got it to a really nice color and provided me with products that would bring my hair back to health. And the styling at the end looked great also! I really appreciate her being able to fit me into her schedule so my hair could be fixed before prom, and am happy with the way everything turned out. read more

I have been a regular client with Sam for about two years and it has been so awesome to have found a regular hair stylist who I trust and always makes my hair look wonderful. I never have to stress or worry about getting my hair cut/styled because I know she always takes good care of me.. such a relief! Sam is an expert in all types of hair and always gives me the best tips and advice on anything and everything from products, hair care, styling, etc. Her new salon is comfortable, clean, and relaxing. My hair is currently as healthy and beautiful as it has ever been because of her. Thank you Sam! I definitely would recommend her! read more

Sam always does the best job in my undercut! I started going to her 2 years ago when I first took the plunge to do a complete undercut (instead of just patches). I was really nervous to go to a salon for the first time, and I was worried I would have to find someone who knew how to cut curly hair. I've heard a lot of horror stories of people having to go from stylist to stylist. I got so lucky that I got paired with Sam right from the start, and she has done wonders on my hair. My hair has been so healthy Today, my hair has held up so well during a level 3 storm, and a huge adventure on public transit through said storm. I can't stop looking at my hair in the mirror. Thank you so much Sam! read more

Sam rocks. She is responsive, a good listener and now takes care of our entire family....

I came in 3 weeks ago and so glad I did! I have curly hair and learned from her the proper way a stylist should be cutting my hair! All this time I never knew nor was I ever explained how it should be cut. I was so impressed! On top of all that super knowledgeable about color and having basically black hair trying to go blonde she was so honest to tell me how long it will really take to get me where I want to be. I'm so glad I came to Sam cause she really knows her stuff! Can't wait for my next hair color session today with her!! read more

I followed Sam from her previous salon. She is an extremely confident and fearless hairstylist who knows what she is doing very well. I have a cowlick in the front of my hairline and she was one of only a handful of stylists willing and unafraid to give me some longish bangs in the front and the ONLY one who helped me *fight* the cowlick by retraining my bangs in the opposite direction. They are now almost completely retrained and give the impression of much volume. It also helps that she is such an exuberant person; talking to her can melt your stress and lift up your spirits, at least for the time that you are with her. I am so happy to see her business grow and wish her even more success in the coming days. read more

Sam is seriously the best! Attention to detail, and so personable. She has doing my hair for the last few years, and has completely nursed it back to health. I would highly recommend Sam to anyone man or woman. read more

I highly recommend Sam's Style salon. I had an appointment today for cut and color and Sam did a great job. The studio is easy to find and in a very nice building. I really appreciate that Sam respected my time and was ready for me when I arrived. She completed my appointment just as her next client was arriving so I never felt rushed. Her studio is very professional and Sam is very knowledgeable. Thanks Sam! read more

Sam is the crème de la crème!! I'm so happy to have found her studio. She not only saved my hair after another salon absolutely wrecked it days before my wedding ... she went out of her way to fit me into her busy schedule in order to do so :-) She is a blessing!! No one else is coming near my hair, but her. After many years of searching - I've finally found an amazing stylist, in a nice salon, whom provides world class customer service. (Become one of her clients while you still can.) read more

I brought my 15 year old son in for a haircut. In the past he had always gone to one of the "walk-in" places for quick (and usually not very good) haircuts. Samantha recognized that going to a "real" stylist was a new experience for my son, and she was very patient with him when he didn't really know what he wanted. She talked to him in depth before ever cutting a single hair. When she did start cutting, she went slowly and cut it in stages to make sure he was comfortable with what she was doing. She even spent time showing how to style the new haircut. The haircut came out great Both my son and I really liked Samantha and would definitely recommend her to anyone read more

My first time here because a friend recommended Sam. She was so great! Didn't cut more than I wanted to like some stylists tend to do. Explained all the products and gave great recommendations on how I should be taking care of my hair. Finally found a stylist in the East Bay that I trust and want to go back to! read more

Sam has cut my hair for a few years and she's fantastic. She always listens to what my problem spots (cowlicks!) are and cuts my hair in a way that minimizes them. She is always nice, funny, professional and accommodating. Her salon is beautifully set up near other beauty services. read more

A few weeks ago I decided to make a big change, from LONG hair to short. Thank goodness I found Sam!!! She really took the time to listen and really understand what I wanted, and then gave me an awesome, edgy, cut. Sam wasn't pushy about products, like some stylist can be, and gave me lots of tips and different styling ideas for my new look. Having short hair again has been an adjustment, but it's so nice with summer right around the corner not to have super long hair anymore. I felt pampered from beginning to end, and look forward to my next visit. read more

I'm guilty of hopping along from one different stylist and salon for the past 8 years at least, until one lucky day when I happened to get booked with Sam for my first appointment at yet another new studio I was trying. No more commitment issues after that - I've been seeing Sam for the last couple years; she literally saved my hair, the ends of which were all straggly and sad from years of coloring and poor upkeep, and my hair has never looked as healthy ever since. Sam recently moved to her own studio (yay congrats!!) and I didn't think twice about following her from Fremont to Castro Valley, even though it takes me across the worst freeways in the Bay Area (680/880) Totally worth it!! :) read more

I would add more stars if I could. Sam is one of the best hairstyles I have ever had. I finally can say I fully trust a hairstylist especially when it comes to keeping my hair healthy and educating me. I am a swimmer and a have been a big hair dyer, so my hair has seen it all! Sam is the first stylist that actually talked to me about what I want to do rather then just agreeing and dying my hair in a way I do not want. (which has happened a lot) I was getting informed while i was getting my hair done and it was the best! She is also so easy to talk to and makes getting your hair done fun, enjoyable and relaxing. Making sure when you leave you are satisfied. It is bittersweet because I found Sam's amazing salon a few weeks before I move back home however I am so glad I finally found an excellent hairstylist and I must say she is so good that I have planned out more hair appointments and plan on flying back here when the date approaches. read more
