Timothy Scott - Haircut - Men's Hair Salons Near Me - Sacramento, California

Tim is truly the best hair stylist I have ever encountered. I have been getting smoothing treatments, color treatments and hair cuts from him for 8 years now. I am someone who works out nearly every day, which means I wash my hair pretty much every day. I also don't own a blow dryer. Tim's smoothing treatment allows me to have the absolute smoothest, yet insanely voluminous gorgeous hair for months with NO EFFORT. I can't tell you how many times I get complimented on its shine and beauty even when I'm at the gym lol. He also doesn't use any of the formaldehyde treatments, which I have had before and I MUCH prefer the results of Tim's smoothing treatment over a Brazilian blowout, any day, no question. My hair always feels healthier leaving his salon then when I walked in, which is rare. Tim is beyond thorough when he works with your hair, something that is really important to me if I'm paying for a smoothing treatment, because if this is rushed, or not executed properly you are just wasting money. Tim knows the chemistry of all the products he uses for these treatments and he understands how they interact with the type of hair you have on an insane level which helps him guide you to the best possible choices when choosing color or when combining treatments in the same visit. Tim never double/overbooks, and always spaces appointments out so he isn't rushed which again, results in the best possible outcome for the client. Tim is also one of the kindest, funniest individuals to know. If you are going to spend multiple hours getting your hair done with a stylist, you certainly want it to be Tim! Tim use to have an amazing salon in San Francisco (where I live) I love his new salon in Sac, the decor, vibe and experience it provides while getting your hair done is very luxurious. I have no choice but to continue getting my hair done with him, because no one provides the quality and experience he does (I've searched high and low in SF to no success). So yes, I make the drive from San Francisco to Sacramento, but it is worth every penny and moment in traffic to have great hair! If you want a high-end hair experience with impressive and quality results that last, Tim is your person! read more

See all

I tried several hair stylists after moving to Sacramento from the Bay Area and was delighted to find Tim. He has a lovely private salon - you and Tim are the only ones there during your appointment! Tim listens to your ideas and makes some suggestions of his own. He does a great job with highlights, low lights and gray coverage!. I love his product line of hair products. They have really helped keep my hair healthy. Tim gives me options of a smooth blow out or this super cute curled look - my hair has a lot of natural curl. I look forward to my appointments with Tim and highly recommend him. He books out a few months so get on his schedule early. read more

Had a wonderful experience with Timothy Scott. His studio is beautiful and comfortable. Timothy did a great job at listening to what I wanted, and made suggestions based on what he thought would work well with my routine and my overall appearance. On his suggestion, I went a bit shorter than I normally do, and I'm absolutely thrilled with how it turned out. He gave me great styling and product suggestions. I am really looking forward to my next service. read more

I had the best hair salon experience of my life with Tim. Not only was I incredibly impressed by his knowledge and expertise, but Tim is such a good-hearted human as well. He took the time to get to know me, and we talked about life, relationships and matters of the heart. He made me laugh hysterically with his funny stories and gave me such wonderful advice. Honestly the experience was as good as seeing my therapist lol! So basically Tim is like a hairdresser medicine man. Truly a gem! read more

I can't give enough KUDOS and STARS to show my appreciation to Timothy Scott and the fabulous job he does with my hair!!! I have short, fine, hair and he makes it look absolutely gorgeous and the best part is - I can duplicate that look myself at home! He is a fabulous stylist, his shop is beautiful, and I always look forward to getting my hair cuts! I am so grateful I found Timothy Scott and highly recommend him - he truly is amazing at what he does! read more

I'm never going anywhere else. This is the best salon I have ever been to and I mean it through and through. I think I might be what's considered a difficult client: I know what I want or maybe it's more that I know what I don't want, but I don't know how to achieve it...My hair isn't what I'd call especially manageable and it gets thrown up most days just to get it out of sight, out of mind. Timothy is patient, knowledgeable, and helped me make the best choice for myself. He is absolutely a pleasure to chat with and I was very comfortable with his COVID-19 precautions. His studio is cozy, light-filled, and clean. As for my hair, I ended up getting the smoothing treatment and a cut to tidy up my at-home haircut. It took me a few days to get used to a new routine and learn how to style my new hair type, but it was VERY easy and low maintenance. I have the Aura Botanica Kerastase shampoo, which smells great and is gentle on my scalp, and his suggested styling products have been useful for achieving the look I wanted. Thanks, again, for putting in the time and making me feel comfortable with the COVID precautions. I appreciate you and look forward to coming back! read more

My old hairstylist of 5 years recently moved to Mexico City leaving me no choice but to find a new one. I held off getting a haircut until I couldn't take it anymore. Going to a new stylist gives me anxiety, because often time they do extra circular activities that I don't like and cutting Asian hair needs attention to detail. I'm more of a "less is more" kinda guy and I hate when my haircut looks too fresh. Tim listened to my directions and he did something pretty novel: before he did something new, he would explain what he is about to do. This allowed me to tell him yes or no or don't take too much off. My cut was exactly what I wanted. I'll def be coming back and I'm relieved I have someone I can go to. read more

I think this salon is closed as he told me no thank you I'm not interested when I called to book a appointment after his online system was disabled. After my first review he responded with horrifying sarcasm. Yikes. Welcome to Sacramento! read more

Timothy Scott I adore Tim! I had colored my hair myself and I needed a color correction. My hair had a very reddish brown color and I wanted to cool it down. I asked Tim if he could give me a silvery brown. He got all the red out and gave me the silvery brown I wanted...exactly the shade I was trying to achieve. Color correction can be difficult but not for Tim. He's one of the kindest and most talented hairstylists I've ever met. Highly recommend! Thank you, Tim Scott read more

Cannot recommend Timothy enough! He is very knowledgeable and helpful. I felt at ease with his services!

I am so happy Timothy Scott has a salon in Sacramento! I've been going to him for quite some time and I love my hair. He is sooo good! He listens and understands exactly what you want. It's the right cut every time and I love my color, it looks so natural. Beyond the hair--this is important--is the experience. Going to Tim feels like a luxury for myself. He only sees one client at a time, the salon is beautiful(!) and Tim gives you his full attention. I am so spoiled now I don't think I would ever go back to a regular salon. (Not that I would anyway, because Tim does wonders with my hair.) This is a treat, people. read more

My pet-peeve is long reviews, but I do understand the need sometimes. The bullet points for this review however is: 1. Timothy really wants to help people with their hair 2. He is extremely good at what he does. I contacted Timothy in desperate need, it was 2 days before my wedding, I use something called keratin hair fibers to conceal my baldness, and my hairstylist familiar with these fibers canceled on me last minute. Timothy was one of the only stylists willing to listen, he was receptive and honest. He noted he had no experience with the fibers, he wanted to help but only if he could do what I was asking. He took his time, watched a video I sent him, and after reviewing the process gave me an appointment. On the day of my wedding I was truly stressed, lots on my mind but in terms of the hair, it was going to be an outside wedding in Sacramento at 4pm, projected weather was 96 degrees, my Sherwani was all white and fibers were black, there was a new stylist and I had so many thoughts running through my head, will my hair hold up to the heat, will the fibers get everywhere, and is he any good? As soon as I started talking to Timothy, my stress started melting away, he is a consummate professional, he is just really good at his craft, he took my concerns to heart, he used the keratin fibers better than my stylist who has years of experience and created exactly the look I wanted and one that was able to last through the heat for 8 hours. Thank you Timothy! read more

Tim is a master when it comes to hair! He suggested a fabulous cut and meticulously colored my hair coaxing out my natural color mixed with a beautiful highlight and shade. Truly an artist. I highly recommend him and feel so fortunate that he has moved his San Francisco salon to Sacramento. His salon is beautiful, calming and COVID safe! read more

San Francisco's loss is Sacramento's gain!! Tim Scott is a fabulous stylist and does an equally amazing job with color and highlights. I've only had the pleasure of working with Tim for about a year, after my longtime stylist/colorist moved out of state. Can't tell you how thrilled I was when I found Tim!! Not only does he do an absolutely fantastic job with my hair, but he's great fun to visit with during appointments. And he's incredibly efficient. It doesn't take nearly a half a day for a cut, color, and highlights, as I've unfortunately experienced elsewhere over the years. Too bad Yelp caps its rating system at five stars, as Tim deserves 10++. read more

Tim is super friendly and is a complete professional at his Art (hair stylist ). Highly recommend!!

Tim has been coloring my hair every month for nearly 5 years until the pandemic reared its ugly head. Not only does he do an amazing job with my very challenging, thick and wavy hair, but he makes the time seem to fly by with his charming and witty conversations. Who could ask for more from your hairstylist? The last 5 months of closures have left a noticeable void in my life. Counting the days to being pampered once again on the regular and seeing my dear, talented friend. read more

I'll start by saying that I'm extremely particular about my hair. So much so, that I spent years teaching myself how to cut hair and eventually started cutting my own. I used to have a tight taper with a disconnected quiff on top. I'm no pro, but I promise you that with enough practice, fading your own hair well is possible... That said, scissor cutting a longer style just cannot be done on your own. After about 10 years of the same hairstyle, I had grown it out and decided it was time to do something new. I was anxious about the whole thing. I knew I wanted a change, but I wasn't quite sure what exactly I was looking for. My hair is a sort of thick, wavy texture that's tough to control. Having not paid for a haircut in so long, I honestly doubted that the experience would be worth it. Tim Scott absolutely exceeded my expectations. We spent a solid 15-20 minutes just looking at pictures and coming up with a plan for this cut. He taught me quite a bit about the how and why of specific types of shampoo and conditioner. As for the cut itself, he definitely took his time to ensure that every detail was perfect. Taking nothing away from barbers, he did something with his shears that could not be done with clippers. He checked at multiple points in the cut to be sure that I was happy with the way it was coming together. He even went back to make a few small revisions at the end. Once it was all done, he showed me a few different ways to style it - really working with the natural wave of my hair rather than fighting it. If you're scrolling through Yelp looking for someone in the Sacramento area who can do a proper men's scissor cut, Tim is the man. Tim's prices are about double what you'd pay for men's haircut elsewhere, but I can sincerely say - even after not spending a dime on a haircut for 10+ years - that this was worth it. read more

First time customer review: wow, wow and WOW. Tim is knowledgeable, charming, professional, funny, inclusive, and has wonderful communication skills! I was very impressed with my overall experience from the actual haircut to the fun conversation. Cannot encourage Timothy Scott enough! read more

Tim gave me an awesome haircut! My hair was long because of the pandemic and I usually get it cut pretty short. Tim suggested I keep it short but not quite as short as I used to so I let him cut it as he suggested. I've gotten compliments from friends and coworkers. I'd say he is a bit higher priced than the norm, but still within reach and totally worth it. I made another appointment to take advantage of the 3 week discount. See you in 3 weeks! read more
