Brilynn is the sweetest and fully takes the time to make sure my hair turns out exactly the way I want it. As a college student, Brilynn has helped me with treating my hair even six hours away. Walking into this salon is always a breath of fresh air. You can tell everyone truly cares about your experience and satisfaction. My hair always feels refreshed and perfectly styled after an appointment. Definitely recommend coming to this salon for a quality cut, color, and style. read more

I can't recommend Cira Marie enough! She is incredibly talented and consistently kills it every single time! I've been seeing her for years now, and I trust her completely with my hair!

Theory Pleasanton Salon - Blow Dry/Out Services Near Me - Pleasanton, California

This used to be the old Salon 77, by the way! Same amazing staff--just a new name. I've been here twice now, both times with Abigail, and she is incredible. She's precise, thoughtful, and truly focused on giving you the cut you need. And best of all--she doesn't push products at all. The salon itself is beautiful, with a cozy seating area, a separate wash station, and two floors of space. They even offer you a drink of your choice. Parking is usually easy to find either in the back lot or on the street. read more

I Love love Liza she is such an amazing hairstylist!!! She literally has magical hands. I went to Liza for luxury extensions and a full balayage, and I am beyond happy with the results. She is truly amazing at what she does! From the consultation to the final look, she listened carefully and delivered exactly what I wanted actually even better than I imagined. The color is blended perfectly, the extensions look and feel so natural, and the overall finish is flawless. On top of that, the place was very cute, clean, and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. If you're looking for someone you can trust with your hair, Liza is the one. I highly recommend her and will definitely be coming back! ‍ read more

Patricia is an awesome stylist! I went here for a blowout because my hair is thick coarse and wavy/curly. It doesn't like to hold a curl after being straightened out but Patricia worked her magic and these beachy bouncy blown out waves fell exactly how I wanted them to! read more

This review is specifically for Hillary: I've been seeing Hillary for ~4 years now and I have followed her to Salon 77 West (that's how you know she's fantastic - when we follow her to a new salon!!). Hillary really understands her clients - both what they have happening in their lives (so she knows what you're able to handle as far as hair cuts/color goes) and what will look good. I told her from the beginning that I don't want short hair but in times of stress will probably ask her to chop off all my hair (so thankful she knows I'd hate that). She's also super relatable so it's easy to talk to her about anything! As for the salon itself - I really like the location. There's plenty of parking and if you come early, there's a lot of shops to poke around in until your appointment. It was very clean and had a good layout. read more

I'm officially rebooking my next hair appointment with Chantelle Coffman at Salon 77 West. She was thoughtful and professional from start to finish. Chantelle is a color queen! She confirmed my color vision by showing me a photo of her daughter's fab dye job- talk about pro moves. Also? No leftover dye on my forehead. She was super careful to keep everything clean and within the hairline. From the luxe hair wash to the way she brushed my hair - zero pulling, no pain, just smooth, relaxing vibes all goddess energy(!), it was flawless. Her station? Clean, chic, and totally on-brand with Salon 77 West's glam vibe. read more

Chantelle never misses! Went in with no idea how to improve my hair that has been overdue for a cut.. She brought life back into my hair - layers, volume, shape! And the hair products she uses smell *so great* and feel great in my hair. read more

I cannot begin to express how amazing Sarah Cavender has been to me, my hair, and my extensions. Each service I get from her just gets better & better! If my extensions have a glitch or come undone, which is rare, but all I have to do is text her & she is so quick to respond! Not only is she talented in her work, but takes the time to explain how to take good care of your hair & how to style it. I can't recommend her enough, just amazing all around. I recently found out I'm allergic to some things & she took the time to read every ingredient in the hair dye to make sure I would be okay. She didn't stop there, she went above & beyond in gathering information & research of sensitive skin friendly shampoos I could use at home! Salon 77 is luxury. They offer you drinks & snacks as you wait for your appointment. The ambiance is clean and stylish. Everyone is super nice. read more

Theory Pleasanton Salon - Wonderful products with 25% Discount. Thanks - Blow Dry/Out Services Near Me - Pleasanton, California

I had my hair done with Sarah Cavendar and showed her pictures of what I normally get and even my colors. I am new to the area. She did nothing like I showed her. I was embarrassed to go anywhere with the terrible colors. I asked her if she could fix it please, and she became very defensive and started yelling at me in front of everyone. I have never in my life had such terrible hair done, or treated with such disrespect. The salon will not fix it and I spent a lot of money. They won't fix it or give me a refund. Do not go here. They have very poor business practices! read more

If you're in need of a true self-care day, go see Daniela! She's absolutely amazing and you'll walk out feeling like a brand-new person with gorgeous hair. I've been going to her for a couple of years now, and she has never once disappointed me. She recently took me from blonde to the most beautiful caramel shade, and the results are stunning. Daniela really listens, understands what works best for your hair, and always brings your vision to life. Not only is she talented, but she also makes the whole experience relaxing and fun. I always leave her chair feeling confident and refreshed. Highly recommend booking with her!! read more

I've been going to this place for my hair care for a little less than a year and I am in love! The staff is extremely helpful and attentive.

She makes magic happen with my hair every time and comes up with great suggestions when I'm lost on what to do. I've never had a bad experience. read more

I am so thankful I found Hilliary! After so many disappointing (and honestly, traumatizing) experiences at other salons, I had almost given up hope of ever getting what I really wanted. From the moment I sat down in her chair, Hillary made me feel completely at ease. She listened so carefully to everything I asked for, double-checked that she understood, and gave me so much confidence throughout the process. The result was everything I had hoped for and more. I walked out feeling not just happy with my hair, but truly seen and cared for. It's such a rare feeling after years of leaving salons frustrated or let down, and I can't put into words how grateful I am to Hillary for giving me that. She's incredibly talented, but what makes her even more special is her kindness, patience, and genuine care for her clients. If you've struggled to find someone who really understands what you want, please go to her. She's a gem, and I'm so thankful for her. read more

I recently got a haircut at Salon 77 West in Pleasanton, and it was, without exaggeration, the worst haircut experience I've ever had. My stylist was Patricia Gallegos. I went in with long, shoulder-length hair that I'd spent a long time growing out. I made it very clear upfront that I hated haircuts and I wanted my hair like the reference. I even provided multiple photos--one of myself with the style I wanted and another as a reference. It was supposed to be more of a trim if anything with some shaping to enhance my natural texture, not a transformation. Instead, Patricia brushed out my curly/wavy hair before washing it, which completely distorted my texture, which I've never had done before a haircut, really doesn't make much sense to me why you would do that. After that, she proceeded to cut off an extreme amount of length without checking in with me. By the time I realized what was happening, the sides and back had already been hacked off--and I mean hacked. The end result: my hair now sits above my ears, the cut is uneven and shapeless, the sides are frizzy from being left at an awkward length, and there's zero flow or layering. It looks nothing like the photos I showed her or the style we discussed. When I told her how far off it was from what I asked for, she got visibly shaken and couldn't even respond. She fumbled through her phone, presumably trying to find the picture I'd shown her, and said nothing--because she knew she had messed up. I was stunned and honestly mortified. She kept asking me for input, but at that point, there was nothing that could be done. The damage was done. Though I wasn't charged for the service, I'm now stuck having to style my hair every day just to make it look halfway decent, which defeats the entire point of the low-maintenance, natural look I had before. The worst part? The owner responded to my Google review with a robotic "learning opportunity" message that completely missed the point. If this had happened to a woman--if her long hair had been chopped off into a frizzy, unmanageable, uneven mess without consent--would that be all she received? A "we'll do better next time"? My hair shouldn't be a stylist's learning experience, especially when I made my expectations so clear and gave multiple photos. If Patricia wasn't comfortable with the cut, she should've said something. That's what a professional does. This wasn't just a bad haircut--it was a complete disregard for my input, my trust, and my time. I'd strongly advise any man or someone with textured hair--or honestly anyone who cares about their appearance--to think twice before trusting this salon. read more

LIZA IS MY HAIR ANGEL I don't even know where to start -- I LOVE Liza SOOO MUCH. She is a gem, a wizard, a total lifesaver. I met her after a horrible haircut and color disaster (you know the kind... when you cry in your car after ). She immediately fixed it -- that same day -- and I've never looked back. I've been with her ever since, and now my hair is the best it has ever been. I get my grey roots colored every 8 weeks and the color is chef's kiss perfection every time. Like... people actually stop me to compliment my hair and at 45 I will take it . The tone, the shine, the dimension -- it's all on point. And the best part? She gets it done FAST. Just a color and blow dry? 1.5 hours. Add a cut? Still out in 2 hours flat. As a busy mom of 4, I do not have time for those marathon 3-hour salon visits. Liza respects your time and your hair. She's also incredibly kind. During a time when I was losing hair from iron deficiency (ugh, perimenopause ), she was so gentle, so patient, and never made me feel embarrassed. She helped me figure out how to care for my changing hair texture and taught me how to blow dry it like a pro. My product game is now elite thanks to her recommendations ‍ Let's talk about the salon vibe: It's modern, clean, and super comfortable. The space feels airy and welcoming -- not loud or chaotic like some salons. It's the kind of place where you can actually relax and enjoy the experience. And let's talk about the experience. Getting my hair washed and blown out by Liza is pure joy. It's calm, fun, and relaxing -- everything you want a hair appointment to be. I used to dread getting my hair done. Now? It's one of my favorite self-care rituals. Oh -- and for anyone with long, thick hair like me: you know how some stylists just love to hack away at it? NOT LIZA. She listens. She keeps the length. She gives those gorgeous long layers without the trauma. Liza doesn't just do my hair. She makes me feel beautiful, confident, and pulled together -- like I can handle life, even on the messiest days. My hair is my money maker, and I trust her with it 1000%. She is the sweetest, most talented soul, and I'm so thankful she's in my life. Run -- don't walk -- to book with her. Just don't steal my appointment slot ‍ read more

Alli was great! She did my hair really well, and helped me out very last minute. The was super nice, and did exactly what I asked for.

I've been seeing Hillary at Salon 77 for over four years, and I truly can't imagine trusting anyone else with my hair! From highlights to extensions, and deep treatments--she does it all with so much precision and care. When I first started coming to her, my hair was in rough shape, and now it's healthier, shinier, and stronger than it's ever been. Hillary has an incredible eye for color and always knows exactly how to bring my vision to life (even when I can't fully explain it myself). Her highlight and extension work is flawless--natural-looking, vibrant, and long-lasting. I always walk out of her chair feeling confident and refreshed. Not only is she crazy talented, but she's also one of the sweetest, most genuine people you'll ever meet. Sitting in her chair feels like catching up with a good friend who also happens to be a hair genius. If you're looking for someone who will make your hair healthier, elevate your style, and make you feel amazing every step of the way--Hillary at Salon 77 is it! read more
