Went here to get my 3B curly hair blown out for an engagement party. I don't really use heat on my…read morehair because when I do, it's left frizzy and overall damages my hair. I decided to give this hair salon a try. I booked with Tina, and she's literally the best. She gave me the best mini head massage of my LIFE while she washed my hair. She then took her time and very carefully blow dried my hair. She listened to my needs and did an amazing job. I am so glad I found this place, and I plan on getting more blowouts here in the near future!

My stylist was Stephanie she was very knowledgeable and was able to match my highlights to what my previous stylist was doing with my hair for only $400... which is less than I was being charged in Los Altos. I can't recommend Stephanie enough she also gave me great advice on products I should be using and how to care for my new color!

Her appointments were booked out a few weeks in advance, but I was willing to wait based on all of the positive experiences that people have had with her. Booking online was super easy and straightforward. When I got there, we discussed what kind of haircut I wanted and she was very helpful with her suggestions; I was looking for a Korean-style haircut with long layers with face-framing. She is also very knowledgable about trending styles, since she's studied/practiced in Vietnam and Korea before. She did a great job with my haircut and made it feel super light and healthy, perfect timing right before summer. I really also liked the products that she used too, they smelled so good, and she finished off my haircut with a blowout/curls. I love my haircut and will definitely be returning again!

Yeye was great. She took the time to understand what I was looking for instead of just giving me a…read morestandard haircut. The conversation was easy and enjoyable, and I was really happy with how the cut turned out. Overall, a great experience and I'll definitely be back. I've been seeing Yeye for about two years now, and that's probably the best endorsement I can give. I've gone back consistently because she always does a great job and takes the time to understand what I'm looking for. She remembers my preferences, pays attention to the details, and never makes the experience feel rushed. Yeye really listens instead of defaulting to a generic haircut. She's easy to talk to, the conversation is always enjoyable, and I leave happy with the result every time. Great stylist, great person, and someone I'd confidently recommend to anyone looking for a new barber/stylist.

Thy is an amazing hairstylist! I've been going to her for haircuts and color for several years now,…read moreand she's the only person I trust with my hair. She delivers every single time! The first time I went to Thy was actually for a color correction after I had a bad experience at another salon. She did an amazing job fixing my hair, and I've trusted her with it ever since. I usually show her a reference photo, and she always does an incredible job getting my hair as close to the inspiration as possible. I always leave happy with the results and highly recommend her!

I've been with Thy for over a decade. She's been there for me through multiple life events and…read morecountless hair transformations. I still remember what first drew me in - and what probably drew you in to read this review: endless photos of gorgeous, luscious, silky, perfectly dimensional colored hair that looked like it was done by a celebrity stylist. She's only gotten more skilled over the years, and her clientele more loyal. Thy's work always feels classy, polished, and effortlessly luxurious -- never overdone, never trendy in a way that feels temporary. There's an elegance in how she colors hair and styling that makes the final result look timeless. Not only is she an artist, but she listens carefully, takes everything you say into consideration, and also gives honest, expert advice -- including when the answer is, "No, I'm not going to bleach your whole head of hair." You can immediately tell she has a quiet, resolute dedication to delivering her best every single time, no matter how many times you've been in her chair. Thy is exceptional, and if you're lucky enough to book her, I promise you'll walk out of the salon smiling and taking a million selfies.

Made my appointment in good faith. Heather charges $75 if you cancel outside of a 48-hour window…read morebefore your appointment. I agree completely. Five hours before my appointment, Heather texts me to ask if I can come in with 50-minutes' notice. My first appointment. Who does this? I was shocked and explained that I couldn't do it as I work, which is why my appointment was scheduled outside of work hours. Heather countered with an offer of either a morning appointment or two slots in the middle of the afternoon. These appointments were for the next week. Still in opposition to normal work hours. Are you kidding me? Heather, your inability to professionally time manage is not your new client's problem. It is rude to ask a new client to come in early to suit you. I am early to every service appointment. Always. You should expect that your clients show up on time and have the funds to pay for it. Instead, because I have the audacity to take exception to your unprofessional behavior, you tell me I am entitled. Entitled because I have the expectation that a service provider be able to time manage? Entitled because I can't leave my job to be at your salon within 50 minutes of your text? I'll tell you what I should be entitled to...a $75 cancellation credit from YOU!

The first time I went to Heather back in February, our first hour together was just talking about…read morehair care and advice. She made me feel like she truly cared for the health of my hair. Not many hairstylists will do that!! This was one of the main reasons I kept coming back, besides the amazing job she does on my hair ;)) Throughout the entire process, she's been so attentive with what products she uses to ensure my hair is still healthy with the color I choose. My last appointment I went with cherry brown with some purple tones in it. It faded super nice and I still had people complimenting on my hair. I loved the color so much I decided to get it again with a little more red in it! I also love the curated cut she gave me. She never disappoints!! I absolutely trust her with my hair!! Her salon is located inside Salon Republic. Tip: I usually park in the Target parking structure and walk around the building. (Photos are from two different sessions)

Really happy with my haircut at Essence Salon with Yessenia!…read more Booked a haircut appointment with Yessenia through the website for a Tuesday afternoon. I asked for a rounded haircut with lots of layers and face-framing pieces and I showed her my inspo photos as well. She first washed my hair and then got started on the cut. Yessenia did an amazing job! She was friendly and professional and gave me exactly what I requested. I wasn't sure whether to go with lighter or heavier curtain bangs/face-framing pieces, and she knew exactly what would suit me when she suggested sticking with lighter face framing. She also somehow managed to style my frizzy Indian hair perfectly without using much tension on the brush, which was shocking to me. Overall, I had a very positive experience with Yessenia and Essence Salon and will definitely be returning!

From the start, she…read morelistened carefully to every detail I shared and took the time to go through my inspiration photos with me, making sure we were on the same page before she even picked up the scissors. I originally booked this appointment last minute after another stylist canceled on me the day before a trip - and honestly, I'm so grateful that happened, because I would've never found Grace otherwise. Sometimes things really do work out the way they're supposed to. She absolutely killed my haircut. I have curly/wavy, thick hair, and she knew exactly how to work with it - something that's hard to find. The shape, the movement, everything came out better than I imagined. Also, the vibe was amazing - super welcoming, relaxed, and just overall such a great energy the entire appointment. Grace is also genuinely so sweet, which made the whole experience even better. Safe to say Grace is officially stuck with me as a client. Highly recommend her if you're looking for someone who really knows what they're doing, actually listens, and creates an amazing overall experience.

Visited Her Studio Salon for a haircut, and overall had a really great experience…read more VIBE & AMBIANCE The space felt trendy. Noise level was lively, and parking was manageable, but can be difficult to find depending on if you're going on a weekday after 5pm or weekend. SERVICE Service was friendly and attentive - received bottled water, which was nice! Shoutout to Apple for her amazing hair expertise and the time she takes to share what she sees from a professional stylist, as well as Will for being super cordial and easy to converse with! VALUE Prices were reasonable for the Bay Area (especially due to the high quality of the styling). STANDOUT DETAIL What stood out most to me was the hospitality of the owner (Apple) and her employees! Overall, I'd recommend Her Studio Hair Salon!
