I need to make a shout out to Katy Jean, who is a stylist at ten dash one hair salon…read more I'm in my 70s but still want to be stylish. I had taken a picture to Katy Jean and she did a great job. Through the whole process she asked me questions. What did I think about this? What do you think about that and really wanted an honest answer. We got all done and we looked at the picture and she said I need to cut some more here. She was really attentive and did a fantastic job. It's just really hard to get a hairstylist to listen and not make you feel like you have to settle , and then go home and redo the whole thing. I did not have that experience with Katie. She was fantastic. I would recommend her.

I moved to Ventura a few years ago, and I was on the hunt for a hairstylist who not only does an…read moreamazing job but is also friendly and professional. One day, while getting coffee at Palm & Boy across the way, I noticed a charming salon. Curious, I stopped by and was greeted by a lovely receptionist who immediately connected me with Corey. I honestly felt like I hit the lottery! Corey is not only skilled but also incredibly kind and compassionate. It's rare to find such a perfect blend of professionalism and genuine care, and I'm so grateful to have found her at Matiz Salon. Every visit is a wonderful experience, and I always leave feeling amazing. Highly recommend!

I should've left this five star review over a year ago when she did my hair, but I am leaving it…read morenow because she deserves so much credit. I'm a natural auburn redhead and so I appreciated her. Still keeping my natural color but adding some blonde to it. That is not an easy task. KRESA is amazing at what she does. She made me feel so good after my appointment. To this day, I have not found anyone that can cut and color my hair like her. It's funny because when I first went to the salon in Ventura, it was because I was housesitting for my parents and since I live in a small mountain town I rarely get my hair done and I thought while I was there, I could do it. Little did I know that I knew Kresa from Bakersfield. I used to get my hair done at her salon that she owned, but didn't have the pleasure of getting my hair done by her. I live about five hours away and I am absolutely considering driving that far to get my hair done once I get a new job. If you need your hair done, seriously go to Kresa.

I truly did not want to write this review about my experience at The Color Bar on June 27, 2026…read more However, after a new stylist declined to schedule a second appointment following my disclosure of what happened, I felt it was only fair to share an honest account so prospective clients could make an informed decision. I will not publicly disclose the name of either stylist, but I am willing to provide that information if contacted directly. I was at The Color Bar for approximately six hours. The foils on the right side of my head seemed to be processing normally. However, after the stylist remixed the color and began applying it to the left side, the foils became extremely hot. The heat was burning my neck and scalp, and my hair itself was burning. I was terrified that my hair was going to burn off, so I began pulling out the foils myself. They were so hot that they burned my fingers as I removed them. Even the salon owner felt the excessive heat. I did not learn until after the incident that she was the owner, but she did not show any concern. The stylist at The Color Bar accused me of putting something in my hair that caused the burning. However, the only product I had used was a natural black-hair shampoo approximately two weeks earlier. I have never experienced anything like this--not even after using boxed hair dye. In an attempt to correct the color, the stylist applied a toner that left my hair looking essentially black. My hair is neither thin nor straight, so perhaps its texture was more challenging for her to work with. However, I trusted that she had the experience necessary to color my hair safely. My hair was severely damaged, my shirt was left with major bleach stains, and although I did request a discount due to the less than professional service,  I was still charged and PAID HER $300. I have included pictures showing the bleach damage to my shirt from that appointment. Despite everything that happened, **I never became angry or raised my voice.** I showed the stylist considerable grace because her child had also been at the salon for several hours, and she shared that her husband had been deployed that day. In August, I visited a stylist at another salon, which I will not name in this review but it's at Hollywood Beach. During that appointment, I privately explained what had happened at The Color Bar and why my damaged hair required extra conditioning and care. When I later tried to schedule a second appointment, she declined to book me and said she had spoken to the other stylist - I didn't even provide her with a name, just an initial! (I could barely remember her name). **I cannot know exactly what was said between the two stylists, but I was shocked to be blamed for what happened**!! The fact that one side processed normally while the newly mixed color on the other side became dangerously hot speaks for itself. Clients should be able to trust that their hair will be treated safely. If something goes wrong, they also deserve honesty, accountability, and compassion. I hope this review encourages others to book with caution, research their stylist thoroughly, and ask questions before committing to a service. Regards, Ventura Resident

Just wanted to give a refreshed review as I've been going to The Ivy Mae Salon for the past 4 years…read morenow and want to update you all that it is still my go-to spot. I no longer live as close to Ventura as I did before, however I will still make the long drive to get my hair cut by my girl Angie. It's crazy to think how long we've known each other now and I will say she is probably the only person in this world I trust with my hair. Her attentiveness and attention to detail when it comes to doing my hair all these years has never faltered and I will continue to be a loyal customer. Thank you Angie!

I have had super bad luck with hairstylists since I moved to Ventura. Today I had an appointment…read morewith Emma at this salon and was excited because my hair badly needed color and a trim. I was very clear with the receptionist about what I needed when I scheduled the appointment. I arrived a few minutes early and was told Emma was running half an hour late. When she finally came to fetch me she asked me what she could do for me. I told her. She said, "I don't cut short hair. My specialty is long hair." What kind of stylist can't cut short hair? She agreed to color it and tried to book me for the following week for a trim - with another stylist. I don't want to wait another week for a trim! The color she put on my hair was so dark it's almost black and does not match the color I already had. Guess I will have to start all over again from scratch. It's so very, very upsetting and disappointing.

I liked this place for the most part. Just some feedback on some improvements, offer guest WiFi…read morebecause the cell phone signal here is really bad. It's extremely slow and annoying especially if you are sitting in the chair getting your hair done for a long time. The bowl to wash your hair is not that great compared to other salons I've been to since the water slips through your back. The restroom isn't wheelchair accessible due to a couple of small steps. A foldable/portable wheelchair ramp could make the space more inclusive for people with mobility needs. This can be placed on the side on a as needed basis. Overall, I liked this place though! Staff was very nice and color was great.

I originally left a great review but it was definitely too premature. I got my nails done here in…read moreJanuary 4th, it took 3.5 hours for my full set of gel x, cost $150 plus tip. They were beautiful and seemed sturdy. I was happy to pay the price with how gorgeous they were. By day 6, two nails had broken off. Not blunt breaks but a clean peel off of the glue. Since then, not even a month later, I have 3 nails left (I keep gluing them back on myself because it was so expensive and I wasn't really planning to get my nails done again so soon). To say I'm disappointed is an understatement. Every time I have got Gel X they have lasted 6-8 weeks. For this price and time invested, this should not have happened. I've been on leave from work and resting mostly so I have not been rough with my nails AT ALL. These nails were cured several times so I do not know what the issue is. This salon was recommended to me by someone who has used them before and swore by their work. I'm not sure if it's the materials or technique but buyer beware. Gel X is not the strong suit here.
