Let me start by saying. I'm just an average guy who likes getting my hair cut done right. a 2" all a way around, tapered side burns and a 1/2" around the crown. I've been going to see Tim for a while. I started going there on Sundays "Yay, they open on that day. " I got Lena, she's cut my hair twice and she's really good. She does it swiftly and effortlessly and she's in high demand. I ask her if she does nail services but decline to say so. Only thing keeping it from 5 stars was the lack in promotions and advertisement specials. The overall place is small but these ladies do a great job and their busy like always "cept Sundays" read more

Lena is the absolute best! I've been coming to her for over two years and I refuse to go to anyone else. She is so nice and humble, very friendly and welcoming. My hair is super thin but ever since I been going to her she has some magic in her hands and my hair just doesn't stop growing. I've gotten my haircut by others in this salon as well,but no one compares to Lena! If you tell her a inch, she cuts off exactly a inch, after every cut and layer she makes sure it's the right amount you want it cut before she even cuts it, even after she cuts it she will ask if it's okay. I've gotten my cousins, sisters and sister-in-laws hooked on Lena, I recommended her 100%! You will not regret it, lena is the most sweetest person i have ever met, i even told her i would be so sad if she ever left. I refuse to let anyone touch my hair if it's not lena and you can't be a the prices at Studio 8! read more

This place has horrible customer service! I purchased a promotional card for hair and beauty services here from a woman who came into my place of employment selling them for $50. Had I known how awful the service was here I would not have purchased. One of the stipulations is "you must have an appointment", even though when you go into the salon its totally empty, yet they still will not provide service when you mention the promo card! I attempted to make appointments on several occasions, and each time they were either booked or could not accommodate my schedule needs. However, I finally got an appointment on my birthday since this was the only time off I had from work. I made 2 appointment each at 10:00 (on different days for 2 services, since each service has to be done separately.) When I arrived I was told that my appointment was at 9:00 and since I was late and it was a promotional slot that I had forfeited my appointment and could not reschedule. I mentioned to this heartless woman that it was my birthday today and there must have been a mistake and that my appt was at 10:00. She went on to say that there was nothing that she could do and that I should put my appointments in my phone or write them down! Im not sure if anyone else has had this same experience but, they are definitely scamming people out of the $50 for these cards! It seems very difficult t get in here! Yet they say walk-ins welcome onthe website!! I will never come back to this place or recommend it to anyone! THEY ARE HORRIBLE!!!!!!!! read more

Never tried this place at first I had doubts but the owner did a very excellent job on my hair cut. Good work

Studio 8 combines excellent service and a great hair cut with beautiful, tranquil elegance. Vicky had cut my hair for years and always does an amazing job, so I would follow her anywhere. Now I get that top-notch cut in a relaxed, classy atmosphere. read more

I enjoy the atmosphere while I get a relaxing no strees hair cut. I've been coming to the same Gal for awhile and people notice a good job. Thank you miss Lena for the good job you do fo me. Jack read more

This place is just okay. I recently moved in the area and am trying to find my to-go-to hair salon. I came in for a hair cut a few weeks back and asked for a trim, and the lady cut off more than I would like. Don't think I will be returning. read more

I went to this place a while ago. I went in for Japanese straight which I paid 300. Before this procedure my hair was healthy. When I first got in there, one of the girl's washed my hair and started putting chemicals on it. Note that none of the 2 women that were working there asked me any questions regarding my hair except if it was my first time getting Japanese straight which I told them yes it was. It was a holiday so they had customers coming and while there was only 2 of them working. They put me under the blow dry machine where they left me there for a long time and it fried my hair. My hair is straight till my shoulder and gets little bit wavy from the bottom. After They were done washing my hair, blow dried it, and straighten it with the iron. Was told not to wash my hair for about a week and not to tie it which I didn't. And finally when I did wash my hair it was horrible. the top part of my hair where I have my bangs were so FREEZY . My hair has never been freezy and not even that, my hair wasn't straight at all. It was dry( looked burnt) and frizzy. I called and told her my issue. She asked me to come in which I did and her response was that she has never seen this before. She has done a lot of Japanese straight but never had this experience. Anyways I told her my hair was healthy before and now it's ruin so do something about it. She put the "treatment stuff" on it and it was suppose to make it better which it didn't. Called her back and now she just sounded like she didn't want to talk to be and told me to come again. I work full time and I'm a full time student so I was getting tired of wasting my time going in there when they couldn't fix it and put some cheap product on my hair which didn't do anything. Later she asked if I had ever had highlights and I told her yes which was in high school. She than told me why I never mention it to her, maybe because you never asked me. And now she was trying to put the fault in me that it does make a difference if I had highlights done. Than I told her that you should ask all these questions before you start doing someone's hair. Do note that I had my hair highlighted when I was 16 and I'm 25 now so no part of that highlight should be in my hair now. When I told her where do you see highlights she started digging through me hair and found nothing. She never refunded my money nor did she say she will at least give half since she didn't finish her job and ended up ruining my hair. After the last time I went in there she literally said hope not to see you again. Today my hair is messed up. I never used to have split ends and not I have split ends on my bangs. I went to my sisters stylist who did an excellent job on my sis when se got her hair straighten and she even told me that they fried my hair and instead of putting chemicals on my hair I should just wait and let it grow out. It's been months and yet I see more and more split ends and the frizziness doesn't go away. I do see this place has a good rating. They may do a good job with hair cuts and coloring but they are not skilled enough to Japanese straight. I haven't even seen any reviews on here about Japanese straight. Apart from that their customer service was bad. That's not a way to treat a customer. After all they were the one who got $300 and in return ruined my hair. I don't recommend this place for Japanese straight. read more

This was a horrible experience. First of all if you offer facials and charge as much as you do please be decent. Second If you are going to put fake yelp reviews , please make sure it isn't ppl we have already ment in the salon or your children/family members. The 4.5 stars is clearly false advertisement. Third. if I have followed you for this long and I am finally posting a review. I have put up with enough and have finally pulled the plug and said "ENOUGH!" VICKEY VU!!!!!!!!!! Was a sweet girl. Great customer service when I meant her across the street. The reason I followed her so many years. But now she's a greedy, money hungry ,inconsiderate person. The last two times I've been there she called me the wrong name. I have made appointments with her and have been pushed to some else twice. Just because I am your regular and will put up with more then new customers please don't treat me like trash and say it's ok shonda you are our regular you understand . read more

Very unprofessional. I went in here and Lena had a terrible attitude. On top of that the haircut was one of the worst I have ever gotten. The many negative reviews speak for themselves. read more

yelp made me put a star!! Our mistake for coming to a cheap ass place. hey!!  looking to get your hair botched come here and see vicky!! if your looking for a hairstylist who doesn't listen to what the client is asking for, come see vicky!! you may give your opinion as a hairstylist, that's fine but don't cut hair based on what you think "would be good". it's not what the client is asking for. beyond unprofessional! tip: avoid vicky, unprofessional, has no listening skills what-so-ever went across the street and the real hairstylist said vicky messed it up. it was uneven and she used a razor the whole time. you don't do that for thin hair.  thank god i made her stop before she made my mother go bald. thank you to the ladies at bella beauty who were able to fix the damage vicky caused. read more

Absolutely horrible and disappointing. I went in for a normal 'U' shape hair cut (that any salon can do on me) and my hair was already straightened. The lady started straightening my hair so I was like oh okay, but then she started saying how she's going to charge me for straightening my hair even though I already came in with my hair straightened! What?! I then left with my uneven horrible haircut which wasn't even the normal 'U' shape I get from all the other salons I go to. I went back and told her to fix it and she didn't even care! I was so disappointed! I left the place and didn't even get a REFUND! I paid $45 for NOTHING! I need my money back! read more

Eh very disappointing.. went in for a haircut but seems like she didnt know how to cut mens hair. Left with my haircut looking the same as i walked in.. glad she didnt mess it up thoe lol. Never going back read more

Susan and Nicole are the best! Susan provides a haircut that is second to none. Nichole does Manicure and Pedicure that are among the best I have had. Very professional and personable. They greet you as you walk in and are eager to provide the services that they provide. read more

I usually hate writing bad reviews but couple weeks ago I got a trim for my A-Line but ended up with lots of uneven parts. I've been going to Vickey for about 4 months now and she's always did a good job on my hair... Until the day I needed it trimmed. The back of my head was long making my hair look like I could've did a straight cut myself at home. I asked for my bangs to be cut since they were over my eyes... Well I got a small portion of my bangs cut and the rest of my bangs long and not cut. When Vickey cut my hair it took about 15 minutes... I'm not sure if she was in a rush because she had another client after me or not. When I left with my hair done I thought it looked okay... until I washed it and straighten it myself the next day, when I found lots of strands of unnecessary cuts. I went somewhere else that took over an hour to fix it because she wanted it to look perfect. It was well worth going somewhere else who didn't do a standard bob cut. read more

Diassapointed with the hair cut I received. I would given them a zero star if I could. Will NOT be returning back. Asked for a layered trim but it turn out really choppy therefore, I went back to have it blended and received the same stylist. Came out the second time worst than what it was the first time. I have really thin hair; between the shortest layer to the longest later is about four inches therefore it leaves hardly any hair in between. You would think they would know this!!! read more

This Salon is AWESOME!! I went there originally with a gift certificate from my brother who is a regular customer. I was blown away by their technique, professionalism, and customer service. They are very genuine people, and I felt like they actually cared about my hair, and skin. They weren't pushy on services like other salons have been in the past. They educated me about hair and nail health and recommended some supplements. I now go here for a haircut, color, shampoo, style, Brazilian blowout, manicures, and pedicures. In the future, I plan on trying out their eyelash extension services. I personally recommend Susan and Helen. They are hard working, caring, kind women. Go support them! You won't be disappointed! read more

I've been following Vicki for over 10 years from salon to salon and final she had her own.. she fits my hair and my boy... always happy with the results maybe I had to wait a few times 5-10 mins but that only because the appt before was 30 mins late.. she always try's to keep her customers satisfied read more

First of all, I found this salon on here because I was already in Elk Grove so why not. Second, my first time here and Vickey fit me in her busy schedule because I was a walk in. Third, she made my hair looook so much healthier by cutting and making it thinner. I didn't want to cut it shorter but I needed to. She is my go-to hair stylist from now on. Plus the price was reasonable!Thank you Vickey! People keep complimenting on my hair read more

One of the worst pedicures I've had. When I got there I felt lots of attitude from the two ladies and my pedicure was litterally less the 15mins towards the end she started to be nice maybe because she wanted a tip. But I will never go there again read more

Love love love Vicky! I've been going to her for years and now so does my entire family. I'm always super indecisive with my haircuts but with her opinion and help I always leave a happy customer. I would highly recommend her! :) read more

Great atmosphere to match the elegance and high standards of hair cutting they do here. Vicky did an AMAZING job cutting my hair, offering both insight and suggestions when I was unsure of what new style I would get. Definitely a welcome addition of a salon who takes pride in their work. read more

This place is simply amazing. The people were very friendly and made you feel at home. They also were very helpful and gave great advice. If you are looking for a great place to get pedicures, manicures and hair, come here :)!!! I definitely will return again soon! read more

I just had the most amazing day! First I got a fabulous pedicure by Bridgetta. My feet were killing me! That feet massage was so needed! She's definitely the one to see if you need a pedi!! Lena is always awesome when she does my hair and eyebrows! I love the one stop shop!! read more

Vickey has been styling my hair for several years and I'm always happy with the results! She's very professional and listens carefully as I explain how I like my hair cut, and highlighted. I highly recommend her (and she's very sweet too! ) read more

I had a hair cut with Lena several times. She has done an excellent job. I don't know why there are some rude remarks in here about her. I think she is very passion about her job. Not only she is taking her time to ensure your hair cut is right but she is very patience with her customers. I would refer her to anyone. Some people in here are so negative. That's just a reflection of themselves. read more

I really like this salon because the service is great and I feel like a new man after I leave. Vickey does a great job on my hair. I received my first pedicure and manicure and it was great.They make me feel right at home here and I would highly recommend you give them a try. Thank you for the great experience I will always come back and tell my friends. read more

Got a really bad bad experience, $7 for 3 minutes uneven bang trimming and it came out horrible. The lady literally just cut it straight, short, and quick, not even try to blend my bang with the rest of long hair. I walked out look like a retard. Called someone to fix it asap but too short to fix it. It's been more than 2 weeks now but i still want to cry when looking at the mirror. I paid for a idiotic looking face and a rude service from the hair stylist. DEFINITELY NOT GONNA COME BACK. read more

Been going to Studio 8 since they opened for my nails, always great job! I have always had great customer service, polite/ friendly staff. Today I tried them out for my hair Luv luv it! Vicki did an awesome job (cut, highlight touch up) She is always so very sweet, she listened to my needs and I love the end results. I admire her for opening up her own business. As a business owner myself I know it's not easy, takes a lot of hard work and attention to detail and this gal is doing a wonderful job!! read more

After coming to Studio 8 Salon for the first time, I took a huge risk and got a Japanese straight perm done. The hairdresser that did my hair, Vicki, made me feel welcome and did my hair for a fair price. She did a nice and thorough job and was very professional. I am satisfied with how my hair turned out and would recommend this hair salon to other people. I would gladly come back to get my hair done again. read more

If you live in the Elk Grove or Sacramento area I recommend you to check out this Salon. I like the hair cuts they give and how elegant and modern. read more

Been around lots of places for fades but I'll tell ya Lena does a great job I always leave feeling my fade is even not high on one side low on other like others do and everyone there is nice and respectful. A+ from Noe read more

Spent $50 for the services and $15 for tips ...hair cut was ok, my nails polish came off the next day, just wonder what kind of OPI nail polish that had used...wasn't happy, not going back again! read more

Love it here. The atmosphere is relaxed, the people are friendly. I look and feel amazing! Absolutely recommend Salon Studio 8!

After reading the previous reviews it makes one wonder if someone isn't chiming in with a 5 star to offset the bad ones. First thing I noticed is there are no prices posted, not even in print. So when I enquired on a Manicure and Pedicure I was given a price after much fumbling, I asked how much is would be to have both done in gel. I was given a price and I sat down and they started my manicure and pedicure, then the owner with her calculator in hand came over and told me that she had made a $5 mistake and she was going to have to charge me $5 more. WOW! so instead of saying I made a mistake so next time the price will be $$$, she actually changed the price for my visit after they were already started. For that reason I will not be back. Businesses should always post their prices, transparency, be proud of what you offer and your fees. Additionally, be customer service oriented, if you make a $5 mistake on a quote, then you eat it, don't make the customer pay. read more
