    My platinum hair done by Elayna
    Lexi R.

    I come here every 6 weeks to maintain my platinum and Elayna is the best she's always very friendly not to mention talented I love how icy cool and white she gets my hair I definitely recommend her if you're looking for pretty pretty hair :))

    Copper hair with blonde highlights and light brown tones

    I have been going to Elayna for 3 years and am always stunned by how great my hair looks after it's done. I started with blonde highlights and gradually over time, Elayna's skills gave me the courage to add more color dimensions. This is by far my favorite combo yet (Copper with blonde highlights and light brown tones). She has a great sense of humor and is genuine. She has outstanding service. Thank you so much!

    Y'all - LOOK HOW CURLY MY HAIR IS!!! I have been struggling with this for months. I decided to embrace my natural curl but could never get the cut or styling quite right. Enter Paula: the goddess of curly hair So stoked. She gave me a great cut and showed me all sorts of styling tips. I can't wait to grow my hair out longer to see just how curly I can go!

    Before...because I waited too long in between appointments!

    This is definitely an overdue review. I don't even know how long I've been going here now. Hailee is my hairstylist and I absolutely adore her. I've been seeing her for years and she consistently does an amazing job. I always leave feeling like a new woman! She's personable, sweet, and makes the experience comfortable every time. She truly listens and always exceeds my expectations with how my hair turns out. The team at Colour Bar works so well together, which makes the overall experience even better. Highly recommend Hailee to give you the hair of your dreams

    Back of hair dyed red and yellow.

    I am a lover of the wildest, boldest colors in hair, but also a fairly socially anxious person. Elayna not only nailed my look perfectly, but also never once made me uncomfortable. I saw her on January 25th for firetruck red hair with yellow highlights/streaks, plus a bob cut and curtain bang. I was warned that it would be an all-day process, but it was doable - and also that the dye pattern I'd asked for would last maybe a shower or two before the red would wash out the yellow almost entirely. She suggested a checkerboard style instead of highlights, noting that the colors would still bleed together, but 1) last longer and 2) look more intentional when the did. It's what i went with, and I honestly love it more than I think I would've liked the initial idea. I REALLY appreciate her honesty and willingness to answer every single question I had. It made the experience so lovely and thoroughly worth every dollar & hour I spent! The salon itself is lovely, with really cute lighting and refreshments available to clients. The bathroom is large and well-kept, even though they it with the shop next door. There's a counter in front of you within reach while you're sitting where you can put your phone, drink, etc. Elayna also struck a great balance of conversation and quiet, which was awesome for an awkward guy like me! She was happy to let the music fill the space between us, but was very easy to chat with when the mood struck. I'm gonna keep this hair as bright and beautiful for as long as I can, but TRUST I will be back. If you need somewhere and someone to give you the crazy, gorgeous, multicolored hair of your dreams, The Colour Bar's your place and Elayna's your girl.

    The Colour Bar Salon meets my standards from the comfort of the salon to the complete beauty experience. Paula, my hairstylist, is such a creative and talented person. She always understands the goal and makes sure I leave the salon loving my hair. She takes her time to understand 100% what my vision is and takes it upon herself to see me loving the results. I recommend this salon and booking Paula or any of the other incredible hairdressers to change your hairstyle and love it.

    I have been going to TCB for over 3 years now, have I've and seeing the same stylist, Hailee, because I never leave disappointed. She is a great communicator and listens to the questions I have and openly discusses the possibilities of what I want with me making sure the process we proceed with includes healthy maintenance of my hair. The energy at this salon always makes me excited to go back not just with Hailee but all of the staff and stylists as well. Everyone is very friendly, kind, and considerate of others while in the salon. I love TCB and having Hailee as my stylist!

    I always get a blowout from Hailey and she never disappoints! My blowouts last for a long time and my hair is always so shiny and soft afterwards! Price point is amazing and salon has a great atmosphere! 10/10 recommend!

She really listened, offered thoughtful suggestions, and made sure I felt comfortable with the length and style before cutting. She was also great to chat with and gave me really helpful advice about hair care and maintenance. I left feeling good about my hair and have already booked my next appointment with her in 12 weeks!

Sounds funny, but eh, at least I don't have the mushroom top head look. My thick hair and the cut I want is not an easy hair cut to do. The description sounds funny, but with gel it's a clean military look or akin to school kids going to grade school. Not my thing but, the maturity aura can be fixed with longer hair on top. Believe the best way to say is it that I have a heart shaped face. That means the top of my hair should look like an egg to my preference. The haircut I want isn't for the faint. Mess up and you cannot fix it. It's why most fades on my hair type sticks out and is not flat on the sides like a flat top. Once Mindy understood I was willing to take the risk, I was rewarded in something that many hairdressers cannot cut and or is willing to do. Which is to fade free hand, then rat tail comb fade the edges on top with a clipper and texture with scissors. Mind you I watched a long time before giving her the go ahead to take the risk. Sounds a lot of work right? Hair dressers will complain doing this type of cut. It's a lot of work, will take time. Mindy does this for me. And for that I tip well. To be fair, I get my hair cut once a month. But it's usually the best way to learn as the hair has grown out and everything needs to be redone again. Note. Tip what you can, I usually tip hourly wage max to half. Mindy gets more, that's how much I like the cut. 15 to 25 percent minimum wage is a good tip. That being said Mindy takes time, is patient, and remembers you. Everything you would want in a hairdresser. I really should come every two weeks but I got things to do. Mindy does textbook style hair cutting. Which doesn't work with my hair cause you don't really expect an Asian with an Afro like hair type, thick, and straight. Takes time to learn cultured hair types. My hair is a rarity. Mindy learned quickly how to cut and tame it. Qualities of a true hair dresser. Note. I got my hair cut by Lynn too. She's good, but she's busy and I believe she understands my haircut and hair is annoying to do. The guy and new girl are good too. Just a preference and patience to be had.

I was also able to avail of a Groupon deal for a blowout, haircut & deep conditioning treatment too. Appointments required, either via Vagaro or phone, 48-hour cancellation window. His hours are only Wednesday through Saturday. As other reviewers have said, the parking situation is scarce. The salon is located in Land Park between Sac City College and Meet & Eat, by the Plaza Cervantes Park on 11th Ave and Freeport Blvd. There are free spaces along the curb right in front of the business, but the slanted spaces facing the grass are 15 minutes only. On the other side of the grassy area, they say 1 hour parking until 7 PM, and the ones along Freeport are for Zipcars; the rest is residential. I was told that the parking enforcement isn't as bad now since it's summer and school isn't in session, but I expect that when it is that you'd have to move your vehicle mid-hair appointment. A bright, clean, and inviting Aveda salon space. Only a brief wait (minutes) before being seen by Stephen, I declined refreshments but they did have sparkling water. I had shown some inspo photos which were more conservative collarbone-length A-line angled bobs with or without wispy/blunt/curtain bangs. Ultimately, I went even shorter with a chic layered bob with side-swept bangs. Dry chop first, then the shampoo/conditioning before the real cut and styling/blowout. Stephen has over a decade of experience and has been at Moski for almost a year now.

I walked into Honey Salon looking like an actual White Walker from GOT -- my hair was practically translucent with a weird purple hue, and I was a HOT mess trying to survive school and life. Then I met Lauren. She took the time to do a real consultation, explained everything, and somehow completely rescued my hair. Not only did she fix the color beautifully, but she was also incredibly reasonable with pricing -- which mattered so much as a broke nursing student. Over time, she was always accommodating with last-minute changes, root touch-ups on the fly, and helping me maintain healthy, normal-looking hair through pure chaos. Most recently, I came back after another hair disaster elsewhere that left me with orangish-brown roots, and once again Lauren worked absolute magic. She fixed it all without judgment and somehow made me laugh through the process. She is genuinely a saint with incredible skills and a wicked sense of humor. I'm relocating to South Dakota now and I'm honestly so sad to leave her behind. Finding someone you trust with your hair is hard -- finding someone talented, kind, funny, and fair is even harder.
