MARISOL- I've been going to Marisol for over 10 years. She has done balayage, root maintenance, and the best haircut for my long hair. I am very peculiar with who works on my hair, I do whatever I can to keep it as healthy as possible . Marisol has always looked for the best product for me, latest techniques and my hair has never looked better. Needless to say that she is very easygoing, accommodating, and a great listener. I highly recommend her. The workshop salon is very welcoming and friendly. Chairs are comfortable and they use Kerastase products - the best high end products. read more

Nora is the best colorist hands down! I travelled 3 hours roundtrip, for six months to continue seeing her once I moved to Elk Grove. Her haircuts are always on point and she is one of the most sweetest and kindest people you will ever meet. I've stayed with her for over 6 years and I wish I could clone her so I wouldn't have to drive so far. My daughter (who is now 6) would always ask to go see Nora because that is how warm and welcoming she is. Don't let her age fool you, as her natural talent with scissors and coloring is outstanding. Her mentor, Amy, is also a master colorist and a thoughtful, client-centered business woman. She cares for her clients and always has snacks for everyone and offers high end haircare lines that I can't find anywhere else! Going from black hair to looking like a "natural" blond and every color in between, takes skilled hands and an eye for artistry. I can't say enough of how amazing the salon and Nora are. I would continue to drive 3 hours to see Nora if it weren't for the fact that I work full time and have two kiddos now doing sports on the weekends. Walnut Creek has no idea what an amazing salon and talent they have just off of Mt. Diablo blvd! read more

Nora has done my hair for several years now. She does amazing color and cuts and always with a smile. Seeing her in the Walnut Creek location now is great since it is closer to home and it is a beautiful open space with a very freindly team. They also have great merchandise for sale such as high end Keratase and Shu Uemura products. I highly recommend visiting Nora and the Workshop Salon in Walnut Creek. read more

I've been getting my hair done by Nora for several years now, changing my hair color from blonde to bold color and back to blonde again over the years. Nora is a master at highlights and she'll help you choose your perfect shade, even if that requires a little extra imagination. She's fantastic with hair cuts too, I always get a perfect shape and I feel like my hair has so much life when I see her! Definitely check out the salon social media accounts to see some more great examples. read more

Ji did wonders with my hair! I scheduled an appointment for balayage & haircut and felt that Ji listened to what I wanted which was a caramel-ash color. And viola, she made it happen!

The Workshop Salon - light brown highlights by Nora - Makeup Artists Near Me - Walnut Creek, California

I have been getting my hair done by Nora for a little less than 10 years now and I can honestly say, she has mastered her craft. Her attention to detail, warmness when you come in and the overall experience of her services have always been my favorite things about being her client. Nora recently headband and halo dyed my hair red, after months of having all black hair. I told her my idea and she ran with her creativity. I'm so glad we didn't go with my original plan because her vision for my hair came out so much better than I would have imagined. She makes sure you feel your best self when you leave the salon. Don't even get me STARTED on her hair washes/massages... I always feel so pampered and confident when I go in to see her. My boyfriend has a dry scalp so Nora recommended him to use the Kérastase Symbiose treatment. Not only does it smell heavenly, but it has soothed his head too! Something that she also recommended is the Universal Balm by Shu Uemura. This product also is a god-send for dry skin or even just putting it on your hair/hands! I highly encourage you to experience what it's like to have her hands on your head, you will not regret it. read more

I've been going to Nora for years now and she has been with me through blonde, bronze, and back to a natural black brown. She always takes the time to listen to the finest details, requests, and ensures you feel comfortable and confident throughout the entire process. I just recently got a haircut done by her and I love it! My layers are nice and even and my hair flows so nicely! Above all (for me) is the fact that she truly honored my wish of not cutting too much or too short. She trimmed it exactly as I trusted she would, and just made me feel really good and revamped. read more

I have been a client of Amy's for years and I return every time I'm back in town from New York. Her work is impeccable and thanks to her I often have compliments on my hair! She has helped me try out different looks - from blue hair, to bangs, to balayage, to updos for special occasions. And they all looked amazing! I can trust that she will always help me look my best. She also is a wonderful person with a great personality! This new location is bright and relaxing, with a friendly staff and chill vibes. Can't recommend The Workshop Salon highly enough! read more

I've been seeing Amy at her Lafayette location for years and not only is she amazing at what she does, she's also simply a lovely person to chat with. Whenever I want to try something new with my hair, I can totally trust her advice. Even if I'm not sure whether my ideas will work, I know that the end result will be great under her guidance. Her new salon in Walnut Creek is a great addition to her business, with a bright, airy feel and convenient parking. Small touches like a refreshment bar make the whole experience feel welcoming and relaxing. Every member of her staff I've interacted with is professional and enthusiastic about their job, which isn't always the case at some salons. If you're in the Walnut Creek/Lamorinda area, definitely check it out. You won't be disappointed! read more

Alisa did my color the week before Christmas and I'm loving the results! It's exactly the copper color I wanted and the color is still super vibrant and my hair is so shiny. I appreciate how Alisa really took the time to listen to what results I was going for and to formulate before mixing up the color and starting in right away which I feel is something a lot of hair stylists don't take the time to do. I'll definitely be going back to her when I need a color touch up and hair cut. read more

I've been seeing Nora for my hair over 6 years now since she's been at Lafayette. With her move to Walnut Creek, her work is still just as stunning! I trust her with all of my hair decisions. I also had Roxxana do my hair recently for a wedding and she did amazing! I love the Workshop Salon team, Amy has done a great job building her dream team! read more

I couldn't be happier with the haircuts and highlights from Amy. I get so many compliments!!! I come every 5-6 weeks religiously. The new location is really convenient. The setting and ambiance is bright and uplifting. I highly recommend! read more

Through the years, I've gotten my hair cut from different Hairstylist, which includes not only high end local hair salons but also from those parts of the world that I've traveled to and I have never written a review until now because I have found the best. The first time I sat on her chair, I only needed to tell her the look I want once and from thereon, I didn't need to again. Every haircut that followed, all I had to do is sit down and let her take over. Now I receive compliments for my haircut from people I never used to get from before but more importantly, I am happy with my haircut. Even when my hair gets long and time for another haircut, I'm still happy with it. Ji is the best Hairstylist I've ever had and I am sure, I am not the only one who feels this way. read more

Nora is fantastic stylist! When I first started going to Nora she did a consult and sis the time to get to know me, talk about my color and what kind of cut she recommended. I have been going to her since (3+ years). She has done a fantastic job every time. Add in her great personality and you will find your experience an enjoyable one. The location is clean, well appointed and easy to find. read more

I have been going to the Workshop Salon for a few years now and am obsessed! Everyone there is friendly and personable and welcoming. The décor in the new location is amazing and the music is always energizing. I see Nora and have referred several new clients to her over our time together because she is that good. She listens, she adapts, she works hard, does great color and cute cuts and she is fun to be with too! The cut is also super manageable and quick for me to achieve with my crazy and chaotic schedule. My daughter (13) now goes to her as well - Nora is a great listener for her teen drama and also stays up to date on hair trends relatable to my daughter's age which makes her come out feeling on trend and gorgeous every time. I have never gotten so many compliments on my cut and color as I do now. read more

I followed Nora from her Lafayette location to Walnut Creek because she is a great listener, talented at both cuts & color, and works quickly. I initially selected her based on her Yelp reviews at her old salon. When I first met her, I was extremely impressed by how well she listens to what the client wants. I've never had a hairdresser who paid that much attention to what I was describing I wanted. At all our subsequent appointments, she always checks in and listens for what I'm looking for, has a dialogue with me based on photos we look at together, and asks clarifying questions. For me personally, she has been great at a natural looking light brown/dark blonde balayage, blending grays and cutting curly hair. I highly recommend her! read more

I haven't had a haircut in almost a year. Mari was so helpful and really took care of my curls. Curls are so hard to cut and Mari did it with care making sure the curls fell the way we expected. At the end, Mari styled my hair with full curls! I do have to share my favorite part which was, of course, the washing of my hair (head massage!). read more

I've been coming to Nora for 2 years now and I've never had a better stylist. We started off doing haircuts and moved to deeper treatments and highlights (which she is really good at). She's an amazing person to be around and I have never had a stylist like her. read more

Kurt did an amazing job on my cut and color! I highly recommend the workshop salon for their wonderful customer service and highly skilled hair stylists! read more
