I had an amazing experience with Sammie Smith! She did highlights with beautiful copper and red tones, plus root touch-up, and it looks so natural and blended. My hair has never looked this good, especially approaching 50 in a few days, ah! Not only is Sammie so talented, but she's also fun and easy to talk to. I loved spending time with her just as much as I love my new hair. Highly recommend Sammie especially if you're looking for red tones, natural looking color! read more

My daughter got her hair colored by someone new on Monday and it was a disaster and nothing she asked for. We got referred to Kirsty Mello, who took us in at late notice (thank you!) We went into the apt very nervous after Monday's mishap which left my daughter absolutely devastated. Kirsty listened thoughtfully to my daughter's wants, set up a careful plan of action based on her recent color change and addressed her concerns with such sincerity. Within the first few minutes of her appointment my daughter was completely at ease and knew she was in good hands. Kirsty was warm and professional with her approach. The entire way home my daughter was raving about her hair and said she "found her new stylist and will never go to anyone else". Thank you Kirsty for your care, kindness, and the beautiful color! We can't wait to be back! read more

Jori is such a vibe!!! So talented, friendly and reasonably priced!!! I love how cute the salon is too. Super cool space.

Jeanette Louis is the BEST!!! This is the first time I have ever trusted someone else to color or cut my hair and I am SO HAPPY I did! Not only is she an incredibly talented and detail oriented hair artist, but she is so warm and sweet. The way she talks to you makes you feel like you are good friends out for coffee. She asks your opinion and really cares what you think. I had about a year of root outgrowth during pregnancy/newborn baby stage and she did a full highlight, lowlight, and fringe bang with layers. It looks awesome and I cannot believe this is my new hair. Being a brand new Mom is tough and she made me feel so sparkly! read more

Wave House Hair Studio - Balayage - Blow Dry/Out Services Near Me - Livermore, California

I was very impressed with all of the safety measures taken at this salon due to COVID-19. The facility is extremely beautiful and clean. I love the old architecture of the building mixed with a modern beach vibe! If you are looking to lighten your hair (highlights, balayage, etc.), then Karley is your girl! I found Karley through Instagram and her hair transformations are absolutely incredible. I told her exactly how I wanted my hair, and she exceeded my expectations. I moved to San Jose and I still make the 40 minute drive just to get my hair done from her. She makes it very well worth it. Not only is Karley extremely talented, but she is also very friendly, communicative, and down to earth. read more

To be fair, I didn't get a haircut here, but I did receive a cancellation text 2 minutes after arriving for my appointment without receiving a replacement stylist for that day. I know life happens but it really wasn't the best customer experience. read more

I recently got my hair done here by Ashlyn, an absolutely amazing hairstylist, who made my hair look and feel amazing. The Salon was felt so warm and welcoming right as I walked through the door, loved the environment and the people inside! read more

I got full highlights and a cut by Jeanette and couldn't be happier. I've been getting my hair highlighted or colored for over 20 years (I've done highlights, ombré, balayage, lowlights, etc). I'm partial to blonde, especially now that my hair is growing in gray. I have been in the Bay Area for 10 years now and I haven't really been able to find someone that can get my hair quite what I want it to do ( the right shade of blonde and with grey coverup). I can honestly say that Jeanette blew me away with her talent for color. She is also extremely friendly, accommodating, and funny. Happiest I've been with my hair in years. Already booked my next appointment! read more

I have short hair, and finding a good stylist is key to keep it healthy and happy. I moved here from the east coast, and finding someone to keep my pixie the way I wanted it was my first task when I got here. Thankfully, I found Olivia who's now at Wave House. From the first appointment, she gave me a perfect cut to fit the shape of my head AND the shape of my attitude. I always feel confident & beautiful after my visits with Olivia. She gets what you're looking for and makes it even better. Plus, she's just cool. I love Wave House! The vibe is awesome, and if you're in a chair near a window, the people watching downtown is excellent. read more

Wanted to leave a review because Karley did an amazing job with my hair today. I was really nervous about the appointment and other salons have told me what I wanted was not achievable but she was able to do exactly what I wanted. Worth every penny. I am so happy with my hair today!! She was super nice and seemed very knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend if you're thinking about a balayage. read more

Olivia is truly an artist; she transformed my hair from so-so to amazing! I love the feminie shape and beautiful highlights. I get tons of compliments! One friend said "it takes 10 years off" which is good when you are my age. read more

Courtney has been doing my hair for years, and I totally trust her. I leave feeling so great every time. Going here feels like a mini-vacation. The decor is bright and happy. When other salons were blacking out windows and making appointments again health orders, this salon followed the rules and closed. I trust them to follow all the Covid-19 guidelines. Super clean and upright! read more

Best place ever ! Ive been to numerous salons and have had multiple hair dressers but I definitely recommend this place. I got my hair done by Lauren- touch up balayage but there was a lot of regrowth so more of a balayage. It was cheap and fast. She's very friendly and kind. The vibe in there is awesome, very calm and relaxed. read more

I had Ashlyn as my stylist and she did an amazing job on my hair! Made me feel so comfortable and at home, definitely will be rebooking with her! read more

Booked an appointment with Olivia to get a haircut. I had a difficult time explaining what I want or a 'vision' for my long hair, but she listened and took her time with me. I never felt like she was rushed. She cut my hair into a lob, and made them look healthy and stylish! I highly recommend Olivia. She is very attentive to your needs, super easy to talk to, and makes you feel very comfortable. The salon itself is cute and all the ladies have been super friendly and welcoming. read more

Madeline is the sweetest! I got a balayage done by her and honestly I've never looked this blonde! She was extremely careful and listened to everything that I had to say. She even helped me pick out products afterwards that would best meet my hair needs. I highly recommend Madeline, she is clearly very talented and cares about her client's needs. read more

Love this Salon! I followed Olivia here as she's truly one of a kind stylist! No one has ever impressed me when it comes to my hair as much as she has. She's the most efficient and seasoned hair stylist I've ever come across. Not to forget her humble and authentic personality. She's attentive to your needs and magically makes all you hair wishes come true! I would not trade Olivia for anyone else. I'm her customer for life! read more

I tried to make an appointment but it was so expensive for a balayage and haircut. It was going to cost me $300+, but i totally get it that it is expensive. But I thought it will be lower since it is COVID-19 :( read more

If you are looking for a hair stylist look no further! I am obsessed with Alli McCrary at Wave House! She does incredible work!! Each time she does exactly what I ask for and also gives me cuts that are trendy and current. No blunt cuts for this girl ‍!! Wave house is a beautiful space! Super COVID safe! They have dividers between each stylist and there is never anyone next to you. They are following all of the guidelines. I love Wave House and I love Alli!!! read more

Appointment process was super easy. I was able to book online and even received a confirmation text as well. Super sleek and stylish interior. Love the windows, it brought natural lighting in from the outside. My appointment was with Courtney, she is amazing. I showed her a few pictures of how I would like my hair to look like. She did her thing and my hair came out great! I will definitely book again! read more

Olivia cut my hair and she is the sweetest person ever! The customer service was awesome and the conversation wasn't forced either which I appreciate. I love my haircut and can't wait to come back!! read more

I followed my hairdresser Courtney to this salon. Let's start with the actual salon. Location is amaze: right down town. Super cute! The inside of the salon is BEAUTIFUL. I love it. So welcoming - rustic, vintage chic, with a touch of beach vibes. Just so lovely. Each station is stunning. I never want to leave. It's really clear that a lot of time and love went into making this salon it's absolute best. Courtney Mitchell is my stylist and the fact that I followed her here should state more than enough - this girl is AMAZING! She is so friendly, exceptionally personable and wants you to leave feeling like a model. I've been working with stylists for close to ten years to perfect my color and Courtney nailed it THE FIRST TIME! All I did was describe the color, folks. That's all it took and she was able to not only get it right, but do it better than it had ever been done before! Her cuts are stunning and she is exceptionally responsive to how much you actually want cut. We've all been in the chair when someone whacked off way too much hair. It's devastating. You'll NEVER have to worry with Courtney - she makes sure she sees your vision before she makes any moves. I am a Forever client!! read more

I've been getting my hair done by Stephanie for the past 5 years, so I had absolutely no problem following here. I'm so glad I did, the vibe of the salon is so cozy and cute! If you are ever looking for someone to treat your hair the way they would want someone treating their own, Stephanie is your girl. I've done all sorts of colors and styles with her and I love it every single time! read more

I started coming here about 2 hrs ago when I moved to Livermore. I love the setup and overall vibe of this salon. It is always clean and the staff are very friendly. BUT, the best part was finding Brandi, my awesome hairdresser. She always listens and makes me feel great every time I leave her chair. Check them out....you won't be disappointed! read more

I absolutely love this salon. The way this business has conducted themselves during the pandemic reopening is exemplary for the entire industry. I am so picky with not only my color (highlights, balayage, etc... ) but I am very picky with my cut as well. Olivia Hugen has knocked it out of the park time and time again. She is the only one who has truly listened to what I wanted and not only achieved it, but she gives her honest opinion and knows what would suit her clients best. I trust her completely. Olivia is truly gifted at what she does and it shows in her work. Not only is she a superior stylist, but she's a phenomenal human. read more

I love this salon! Olivia is so wonderful, and always makes my hair look so radiant! I absolutely recommend!

Courtney at The Wave House Hair Studio is wonderful. She always does exactly what I want and my hair always looks wonderful.

Stood there for 5 minutes and not one stylist greeted me or acknowledged my existence, including the person sweeping the floor near me. Maybe it's because I'm a guy, in that case you could add sexist on top of being rude. read more

I just realized I never gave a much deserved shout out to Malyssa and while I'm waiting for my hair wash, I thought this would be the perfect time. I followed Malyssa from her last spot, it's a further drive for me from Oakland but that's cause she's more than worth it. I've never had a hair stylist so attentive and focused, she asks me questions every time, whether it be a touch up, a cut, there's always feedback and interaction. She wants to make sure I'm happy with what I have and leave even happier and the way she achieves that every time is due to her skill and attention to detail. She can execute so well though cause she listens! She makes our appointments enjoyable and something I look forward to, not just cause I leave with a fabulous hair, but also because of who she is as a person. Her clients are her investment, she cares in every way. I can see why she came to this location, it's so cute, sheik, and rustic all at the same time. The space is clean, the furniture is modern and the decor is something I copy from haha the place has a parking lot on the side and in a great part of Livermore for before or after plans to grab coffee or get lunch. They have WiFi for clients so I can work on my laptop, but also treat me to a beverage any time of day. All around, I love my hair appointments. If you're lucky to get Malyssa, well...lucky you! read more

So thankful I found this salon and Brandi. I've been coming here since the week they opened and couldn't be happier with my hair! My best friend had been cutting and coloring my hair for about 10 years and after having a baby, I couldn't keep driving all the way to Mill Valley for hair. I tried a few other salons in town and was really disappointed. I had to go back multiple times to get color corrections or fix cuts. Brandi is AMAZING, so talented and really listens to what I am asking for. The salon decor is adorable too! Definitely a place I love spending time relaxing while I get pampered. They also carry Unite which is one of my favorite products. read more

5 stars for Liz Salamanca!!! Having your hair done professionally is such a treat and I believe you should be able to fully relax. Liz makes the whole experience so comfortable and is constantly accommodating to your needs. Your results will show her years of experience. She is always up for a challenge and loves trying new things. She really listens to your ideas and values what's her clients needs/wants are. I can not rave enough about her. So excited for her new journey with Watson and Bailey. This new salon made the right choice with having Liz join the tribe. read more
