Best Hair Salons In Albany

“I booked with Celine and she was fantastic! I love my hair and she recommended products for how to style my hair. Booked my next appointment-yay! The salon is lovely and staff are super friendly. So happy to have found Celine, so happy with my hair.“

“This guy is legitimately a good barber. He can’t do fancy fades or anything but those are overrated anyway and he’ll do a good job with the shape and layering. If you need a quick haircut, this is the place to go.“

“I had a wonderful first time experience, as I’m new to California and I will be coming back. Karen has a beautiful clean shop. My appointment was seamless and very efficient, I was very comfortable and my braider was kind and did a phenomenal job on my hair. The parts are perfect and braids are neat and all for a great price! I got knotless French curl braids, shoulder length in the color Ash latte blonde. I bought my hair and Karen was kind enough to recommend an amazing beauty supply store in Oakland.“

“... got my haircut here for the first time and will definately be back. Nice people, they did a good job with what I wanted... quick and easy.“

“I've gone to R&R for a few years now with long hair & I've had a few cuts with Jessica. She took good care of my hair when it was long & made it beautiful, but last week I did a big change--cut off about 8-10 inches into a layered bob. I showed her the photo of what I wanted and she nailed it! I love my new cut soooo much!“

“Been coming here since I was little. The women who run the place are very kind, take direction well, and have a good sense of style.

It's a cute store right off Solano. They always have a tub of candy on the counter for the kids (and me). It's wheelchair accessible from the sidewalk, but the door is a bit narrow.“

“so i finally made it back to Mei Lin again after what feels like way too long, honestly dont know why i waited so long becuase it was just as good as i remember. Sam always does my cut and she actually listens to what i want, which is way harder to find than it should be. the scalp massage during the shampoo is honestly worth the trip alone and they never rush you out the door which i appreciate

I walk in every time and they remember me even if its been months, that kind of service keeps me coming back.“

“I recently moved to the area from Maui, where I had a trusted stylist for many years. It was a hard change…I miss maui as well 😂. So when I moved to the Bay Area I began looking around for a new stylist. I lucked out finding Terri. She asked all sorts of questions about what I was looking for. We browsed some photos of guys with curly hair like mine and decided on a plan. And she executed. I love my cut. I have been walking around beaming all day. Thanks Terri“

“10/10 recommend, went in for a walk in for a cut and walked out with exactly what I wanted!“

“My experience with this particular Supercuts in Albany was quite good. I've been to a few on the east and west coasts and am happy to report the stylists here know what they're doing. I will definitely recommend them. A couple things to note: there is no dedicated parking lot or anything else, only surety parking. It's important to know because depending on the day and time you go, parking in this stretch of Solano Ave can be a real challenge. Also the women cutting hair are often the ones greeting guests and answering phone calls. It means you aren't always greeted upon entering or have your appointment verbally acknowledged. Nonetheless they do try very hard to keep track of who checked in and whose next. I look forward to seeing how my hair grows out and to going back for my next cut.“

“Ryan was excellent. Definitely a go-to for a great men's haircut in the East Bay.“

“Visiting from out of town. Winnie did a great haircut for this walk-in and included eyebrow trim for a reasonable price (cash only)“

“Naomi is incredible as both a human and a hair colorist. She's the best and I'm so glad I found her. I told her what I wanted, and she delivered it perfectly, when no other stylist I consulted was able to.“

“honestly i was a little nervous walking in because i had a bad experience somewhere else recently but the ladies here were just so nice from the start. they really listened to what i wanted and even suggested a shape i hadn't thought of and it turned out so good. my nails came out perfect and they didnt rush me at all which i really appreciated since im always anxious about that. the color I picked looked way better in person than on the little sample strip. i been getting compliments all week and i keep catching myself looking at my hands. definitely coming back here next time i need a fill or a shape change its just a chill spot.“

“I'm super happy I found Salon Camilla. I've looked for years for a place to do my haircut where I feel comfortable. I'm sensitive to noise and light and always dread going to a busy salon where they push for things you don't want.
Camilla has done exactly what I ask for and she's a really nice, kind person. I will definitely go here moving forward.“

“Over the past 11 years, Jen Brass has been giving me the best haircuts I've ever had. She always finds the best nontoxic hair products, and her salon is tranquil and beautiful. I can't recommend Ashira highly enough!“

“Absolutely thrilled with my hair cut/style! Eric actually heard my concerns about cutting too much like the last stylist did (which is why I didn't return to him and why I was a bit nervous at first) and styled my hair in a way my cowlick finally doesn't show. He thoroughly explained what he wanted to do to keep my length and also lighten my hair load. Oh my gosh I am so happy! This is the best cut and style I've received in decades. I finally found someone who not only knows what he's doing but listens to and honors my wishes. Plus, his prices are excellent! I also really liked that his location is perfect and private as he sees one client at a time, so it was totally peaceful and relaxing as well. Great job, dear new friend! I wish you many years of happiness, abundance and continued success! May more clients finally find you too as I have! Thank you again.
Blessings, Akasha Nicole“

“As Lana was moving from Heads Up Salon across the street to Ixia, I immediately followed her. She is great, fast and consistent - all much appreciated and makes it an easy choice.“

“Nina has been cutting my hair since 1986. She spends a lot of time and is very careful and diligent. I highly recommend her.“

“Awesome cut and perm. Had me in right away and took his time to get quality work done instead of rushing me out, Highly recommend, and will be going back“

“Used to go there and get my hair done, then I decided to re-lock my hair and my stylist (Dorothy) didn't do locks/dreads. They also do nails in there“

“I’ve been going for 15 years, always does a good job. A couple weeks ago i trusted them to get my wedding haircut and so many people complimented my cut. Personally i ask for Cathy because i don’t typically chit chat and she is gentle and always does a great job.“

“I scheduled a keratin treatment here with little forethought. It turned out great, and was much less expensive than the larger salons. The treatment was especially gentle, which I appreciated.“
