I needed a last-minute cut and scheduled with the salon via text (since I've been there before and…read morehad their contact). The scheduling was quick and easy, with the employee on the other end being so professional, helpful, and kind. I ended up going with a new stylist since my usual stylist was booked. The employee told me her name (the new stylist) was Emilee and I was booked for Friday at 6:45pm. When I arrived, the place was fairly empty - an unusual experience for me since I typically go on a weekend morning/afternoon when it's busy. It was nice to enjoy the space without many people! The salon is clean, beautiful, and comfortable, with different products decorating the main front wall. I checked in with front desk attendant (who was very kind) and only had to wait a couple minutes before Emilee came to get me. I was not only her last appointment for the day, but the very last appointment for the entire salon! It was a neat experience! Emilee is an absolute gem of a human. She immediately made me feel comfortable with her welcoming warmth and kindness. She is so down-to-earth and genuine; it felt like I was chatting with a friend! She gave me everything I wanted with my haircut, checking in with me every so often to see how I felt about the length, part, and side bangs. She even showed me a trick on how to calm down my fly-aways/new growth (a neat technique with a special comb and a little hairspray). Emilee truly made this experience probably the best salon experience I've ever had! May we all be so lucky to meet an Emilee in our lives! So grateful for her and this experience; looking forward to coming back! :)

This cute little hair salon is tucked away in a popular building in downtown. Due to the…read morepopularity, there can be difficulty finding parking. However, there is a lot near by with 75 minutes free parking then you are charged after. While waiting for my stylist, i noticed a bridal party getting ready in a private room. Heather did my updo and she was so sweet! I told her what my dress looked like and the theme of my event. I gave her freedom to choose what to do and she showed me a picture of an updo. It was perfect! She did a wonderful job and was so pleasant to be with. I would highly recommend her!

Kat has been cutting my hair for 13 years, I couldnt go anywhere else! She knows hair! Im one of…read morethose people who doesn't know what i want with my hair, but am picky at same time.. Kat knows exactly what to do with it and it always looks amazing, the best part is unlike most hair cuts, her cuts are like fine wine, they age and become better, no need to come back every month, my hair ends up looking better 1-3 months after its cut, she is masterful at layering and texturing my hair so that its really grows into itself. Kat has been the captain to a journey of Mullets that i decided to embark upon over the past year and a half.. which is funny cause she was at first appalled by the idea of cutting my lushes locks off in trade for a mullet.. but now she will admit that it changed her game and now she loves mullets. We have gone from an 80's mullet to a shorter mullet to now an undercut mullet and every interation gets compliments, saying it is one of the best mullets they have seen.. again this goes back to the layering and Kats ability to transition from different lengths while also dealing with the natural lay of my hair and my catlicks.. Not only is Kat a hair master but shes quite funny! Always a good time sitting in her chair! She also has great advise on how to care for your hair and what products are great for specific hair types.

Every time I see her she takes the time to really understand what I am asking for and explain in detail how she thinks we can execute it. My most recent trip was a color correction after I tried to do an at home color, and it turned out better than I could have imagined. She somehow manages to always get me back to my natural color which is a very specific darker blonde. Her studio is absolutely adorable and has fun snacks and drinks. She truly goes above and beyond to make it a great experience. I have referred a couple of my friends to her who have also been astonished with how beautiful their hair turns out! One of them moved away and has been planning a trip back to SB just to have Katherine do her hair again. If you are thinking about going to IV Hair, you absolutely should!!!

I will start off by saying that prior to meeting Tatjana I had one very positive balayage…read moreexperience and one very negative experience with the same stylist at a different salon. I was very nervous going into my appointment because my hair is fine and broken so terribly I couldn't grow it out. I decided to get a cut, style, conditioning and full balayage. Not only did Tatjana do an AMAZING job on the on the cut, she restored my faith in the balayage look, she was super nice and made me feel at ease! Balayage doesn't have to ruin your hair if it is done right, and Tatjana definitely knows how to do it the correct way. Finding Tatjana was one of the best things that has ever happened for my hair, thank you so much Tatjana! I will be back!

She never rushed the process and made me feel completely cared for. I'm so grateful to have found someone with both exceptional talent and such a high level of professionalism and kindness.

I called to make an appointment and the receptionist was very friendly and accommodating. She was able to get me in at a time that did not conflict with my work schedule. That's one of the things I love about Kalib and the salons he works with, Kalib is so accommodating and his main priority is always to put his clients first. I have not met a hairstylist that is as talented and humble as Kalib. My experience was fun and I walked out feeling fabulous! I got balayage done, my expectations were exceeded. I have a lot of hair which can be stressful sometimes when stylists complain about how much hair I have and how long it is taking. Fortunately Kalib never makes me feel like my abundance of hair is a pain and we use the time to catch up. I am always in awe with all of his traveling stories. He is a Davines color educator so he gets to travel to give courses and take them as well. I have never met anyone as knowledgeable and committed as Kalib. He cherishes his work and clients. In addition to fun catching up stories, Kalib asked if I'd like a beer while we waited for the color to lift so I obliged. This is not the first time he's gone above and beyond. In the past when I go in early in the morning he'll be waiting for me with coffee and/or breakfast. I never expect these kind gestures but it is in his nature! Now, that is definitely not the reason I keep going back to him. I keep going back because my hair always looks fabulous and boosts my self-confidence by several points! About the salon: it is located in a prime downtown Santa Barbara location with plenty of public parking around. It is a small to medium size with a cozy feel. The decor has a very Santa Barbara feel with boats and ocean inspired objects. They have Caribbean coffee on tap and very friendly staff. I'm excited for future visits with Kalib here. I highly recommend him!

The overall feel of the salon really fits downtown Santa Barbara. It is very clean, high ceilings, and bohemian/nautical. It is a very trendy salon and right next to state street. I highly recommend Danielle and 19 Blue Salon :)
