No doubt this Is the best salon in the east bay. Especially Tony is a genius. Every time he gives me a haircut that shaves off 5-10 years from my looks On a serious note, they are very knowledgeable, creative and dedicated professionals. Highly recommend to give them a try.

This was my first time getting a haircut from Jo-anna. I'm so pleased! At the beginning, she asked great questions to better understand what kind of hair I have, the hair products use and hair styling routines. She did a fantastic job! I highly recommend her.

Nelly really knows what she is doing, I've been to a lot of other places but nothing compares to how she took care of my hair needs. Even recommended a new hairdo and I absolutely fell in love! Thanks again for taking care of me Nelly

Critical: Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, Value She butchered my hair and dyed it gold/bronze. And charged me over 400 dollars. I asked for a styled cut and a dark brown dye for my daughter's wedding that was in thre days. I cannot redeem it. I do not have enough time. And it will take 3 to 6 months to grow this hot mess out. Service: Hairstyling

Got a hair perm + cut men (medium length hair) Turned out pretty well. Happy with the finished results. Nick who did my hair was very friendly and done a great job on my perm and cut. Taking off two stars for the pricing being a bit pricy and not upfront. My total came out to $310. ($209 for perm and $94! For the cut) I think the perm pricing is fair, but $94 for a few inches off my hair! Definitely over priced imo. :'( Wish they would've given me an upfront quote instead of waiting till the end. I will definitely start asking for a firm price from now on I'd still recommend this salon. It's very clean and seems filled with friendly people. Just ask for the exact price

Mayra has done a wonderful job helping me maintain a professional appearance during Covid and the long months when the salon was closed for services. She asked me a number of thoughtful questions to suggest just the right products to help me take care of my hair when I couldn't get it professionally styled. I have now been to the salon twice during the pandemic. I am careful about my exposure and felt very safe with the precautions taken by the salon. Mayra listened carefully to what I wanted for my balayage and cut, paid attention to all the details, and did an amazing job. I can't wait to go see her post-pandemic so I can go out afterward with great hair! I have left the salon both times enjoying my time in the chair and feeling fabulous afterward!
