I have been getting my hair done for the past 5 years for balayage and baby lights and I have to…read moresay Tina is by far the BEST hair lady!!!! She spent the time explaining to me, setting expectations, and walked me through the whole process. Tina is meticulous and she spends a LONG time on your hair. She cares so much about the quality of the products she use and how it would go on my hair. She did a two process bleaching that minimizes the damage on my hair. I love the way my hair turned out. It's just beautiful. She's way better than the other ladies out in this area. I will forever come back to her and recommend her to all my balayage/baby light lovers. I saw some messages down below says she's a fake person trying to sell products. I find that to be completely false. All hairstylists are going to try to have a conversation with you since you are sitting there for 4-6 hours. The products Tina recommended to me are all very good products that my hair needed since it's now blonde. I don't think this type of false accusation is appropriate for someone who's so kind and genuine. I would recommend her to everyone!!!!

All you have to do is text Tina to make an appointment. She'll ask you to show her pictures of your current hair and tell her your hair history. When the appointment is made, there is a deposit required. My in-person experience during COVID was great. The place itself is called "New Saigon" and it's a mixed nail/hair salon. Since it's a nail/hair solon, a couple of people came in and out to get their hair cut by other workers. Tina is very experienced and super nice! She even made sure that I was comfortable throughout the whole experience. She went along exactly with what I wanted and what I liked. She even gave me tips on how to take care of my hair because I have fine hair. The whole thing was $350, which included a hair trim, color correction, and baby lights. I definitely recommend going to Tina if you're looking for a well-experienced hair stylist that is affordable!

I'm so glad I found Sid! I am not from the area so I always get nervous trying new hair artists but…read moreshe is truly a gem and talented at coloring/blonding. She listens your needs, is attentive, and informs you thoroughly about every step of the process. She's also honest about how light she can take you and how much risk of damage there is (as blonding inevitably comes with). Sid is also super responsive and personable which is always appreciated from a client. Thank you Sid for transforming my hair and being trustworthy! I love my refreshed blonde hair.

When my friend saw it she also agreed it was done terribly. Highlights don't even go to the root which demonstrates gross incompetence in performing highlights. They are thick and striped also.

Also, all the photos uploaded here also make it clear she has failed to maintained her license or sharpen her tools.

I discovered Mariah through Yelp after reading her outstanding reviews, and I can confidently say…read morethey exceeded my expectations. I relocated to San Jose two years ago with my hair in terrible condition. Having naturally fine, curly hair, I had always struggled to achieve the healthy, full look I wanted. From my very first appointment, Mariah demonstrated exceptional professionalism, expertise, and genuine care. She immediately made me feel comfortable and confident. Together, we chose K-tip extensions, and over the past two years she has completely transformed my hair. Not only has she restored its health and fullness, but she also guided me from a dull brown color to a stunning golden blonde that perfectly complements my complexion. Mariah's talent extends far beyond technical skill--she has an incredible ability to help her clients feel beautiful and confident. If you've struggled with your hair or are looking for someone you can truly trust, Mariah is the stylist you want.

She was very responsive when I checked in with her about healing progress and after-care. I couldn't be happier and am so thrilled that I don't have to dedicate any time to drawing on and filling in perfect eyebrows (which I never seem to be able to manage). If you're looking for a wonderful experience and amazing results, I can't recommend Tay enough! Thanks girl!!

I've been going to Tay for almost a year now, I even recommended several people to her! I first went to her for a cut, styling and consultation about highlights.

I had a balayage done before by Tay in 2025. I had decent results so I booked with her again in…read more2026. This review is about my experience with her unprofessionalism and theft of my deposit 2026. I booked a balayage in May 2026 and paid a $100 deposit, which she cancels on me hours before my appointment time. She tells me since the cancellation is within 48hrs shes keeping the deposit (even though she canceled on me) and I can book another appointment which the deposit can be applied towards. Okay, so I book a haircut that costs $150 and pay another deposit of $50, thinking the $100 deposit I paid will apply like she said. She cancels that haircut appointment too and keeps that second deposit, telling me that deposits are non-transferable to other services. She never clarified to book the same exact appointment and it said nowhere on her cancellation policy about deposits being non-transferable. What's funny is she added that onto her cancellation policy after this incident. I attached screenshots of her cancellation policy in May, then in June after this happened. Another screenshot is my last message to her which she never responded to. My card ultimately ended up giving me credit for the deposits. Edit: Tay responded to my review so I feel compelled to reply. Tay recalls I cancelled my own appointment when I didn't. She explained I needed a longer time-slot for a color correction instead and automatically cancelled it for me while still keeping my deposit. I was actually looking forward to a balayage and when she honestly told me it would take more work and funds to get there, I intended to save my funds for a haircut instead. (I had no box-dye btw, the last time my hair was box-dyed was in 2024, and my hair was professionally done Jan 2026 before this). I'm unsure how our communication became personal. The last message I sent that was never responded to seems more like a business matter that could've been discussed in private than posted on Yelp. The cancellation policy photos I attached are straightforward. The policy changed. Point blank, I never cancelled my appointments, received my deposits back, or received service from Tay in 2026.

It was a bit emotional for me to see her go from then to now. What a difference a year makes. So I contacted Wendy, from WS Beauty Touch in Willow Glen, and asked her to schedule an appointment for this first special haircut. I, of course, wanted to be there and document it. Wendy was AMAZING!!! She knew it was a special appointment and not just another haircut. She started by letting her know exactly what she had in mind after hearing what my wife liked and didn't like in her hairstyle. I loved the results. My wife's smile at the end said it all. She looks like a different person than the one from a year ago. One's hair is such an important part of our identity. As Wendy told her, "It's your crown!" We highly recommend Wendy Salgado. She made this experience very special. But I can tell that it was not unique to this one appointment. I know that she treats each of her clients, both new and repeat, exactly the same way. She cares about her clients and she loves what she does. She was given a talent and she loves sharing it with others. Muchísimas gracias Wendy for everything you did from start to finish. We very much appreciate you. Do yourself a favor and book your first appointment to see her. You will love the results.
