It always feels fun there. We are so thankful that we found you guys!

After 13 years with the same hairstylist in NYC, moving to the Bay Area six months ago left me…read moregenuinely anxious about finding someone new. I'm so glad I found Salon Cozzolino -- and specifically Mica. From the moment I sat down, Mica made me feel completely at ease. She was attentive, asked before using any products, and checked in to make sure I was comfortable throughout. I came in for a clear gloss, cut, and blow dry, and the results were honestly stunning -- my hair is shiny, healthy-looking, and still styles beautifully the next day. If you're new to the area and dreading the search for a new stylist (like I was), stop here. Mica is the real deal.

She consistently gives fantastic haircuts, really listens to what you're looking for, and always takes the time to make sure you're happy with the result.

Maryam is talented, warm, flexible with scheduling, and always goes out of her way to accommodate her clients. She's truly a pleasure to work with.

Prices were also reasonable! Thank you bfab!!

I've been going to Dry Bar for years & was SUPER sad/shocked when I found out they closed down the…read moreSantana Row location - as a result, I had to find another nearby blow dry hair bar (last minute) to get my hair done for my anniversary dinner. I know how thin & stubborn my hair can be & am almost certain no stylist can ever blow dry any curls in my hair without tools...but I decided to give them the benefit of the doubt and made an appointment anyway because it was a last minute decision. I walked in a bit early so another stylist took a stab at my hair (and spent about 10-15 minutes working on it) before my assigned stylist took over - after about 10-15 minutes, she asked me if it's OK to use a curling iron...of course I said "yes" knowing it was gonna end up that way...her manager also approved using it without charging me extra because she also saw how much trouble both stylists had with my hair... I'm glad I at least gave them a try so I know they can't meet the needs of my hair (without paying extra for curling iron)!

I'm really disappointed with my experience at this blowout studio today. I had an appointment for…read moremyself and my two daughters. They were taken right away, which I appreciated, but the issue came with my service. When I arrived, I was told they only had 45 minutes for my blowout. At no point did anyone clearly say, "We won't be able to complete your full service." Had that been communicated, I would have chosen to go home and style my own hair and let my daughters compete their service, especially since I had a very important event to attend. Instead, they had me sit down and proceeded with a wash and a quick blow-dry, with no styling, no volume, and essentially no finished look. I ended up with flat, unfinished hair and lost an hour of my time. This was extremely frustrating, especially on a day that mattered so much to me. Clear communication is all I needed and is extremely important for business when people rely on you to help make their day a lil lighter. I would not have gone through with the appointment if I had known the service wouldn't be completed. Unfortunately, this was a major letdown and not the level of professionalism I expected and now I'm driving home to finish my hair just mins before my very important event.

Her questions from even our initial contact showed she really wants to give you what you're looking for, 3 photos of what you want and a couple of what you don't. She was able to give me a good idea of what she would be able to achieve. The shadow root and color are to die for and are exactly what I wanted. I'm incredibly happy with her work and I will definitely be going to her again in the near future. She is kind, thoughtful, and respectful check her out if you're in need of a new stylist.

Really happy with my haircut at Essence Salon with Yessenia!…read more Booked a haircut appointment with Yessenia through the website for a Tuesday afternoon. I asked for a rounded haircut with lots of layers and face-framing pieces and I showed her my inspo photos as well. She first washed my hair and then got started on the cut. Yessenia did an amazing job! She was friendly and professional and gave me exactly what I requested. I wasn't sure whether to go with lighter or heavier curtain bangs/face-framing pieces, and she knew exactly what would suit me when she suggested sticking with lighter face framing. She also somehow managed to style my frizzy Indian hair perfectly without using much tension on the brush, which was shocking to me. Overall, I had a very positive experience with Yessenia and Essence Salon and will definitely be returning!

I originally booked this appointment last minute after another stylist canceled on me the day before a trip - and honestly, I'm so grateful that happened, because I would've never found Grace otherwise. Sometimes things really do work out the way they're supposed to. She absolutely killed my haircut. I have curly/wavy, thick hair, and she knew exactly how to work with it - something that's hard to find. The shape, the movement, everything came out better than I imagined. Also, the vibe was amazing - super welcoming, relaxed, and just overall such a great energy the entire appointment. Grace is also genuinely so sweet, which made the whole experience even better. Safe to say Grace is officially stuck with me as a client. Highly recommend her if you're looking for someone who really knows what they're doing, actually listens, and creates an amazing overall experience.
