Best Hair Salons In Palo Alto

“Gweneth was amazing! So kind and friendly throughout the entire appointment. She took the time to understand what I was looking for and asked about my typical hair routine, which I really appreciated. She helped me find a style that gave new life to my hair without being something I couldn’t realistically maintain. I felt listened to and left really happy with the result!“

“I have 3b/3c curly hair and have been seeing Abigail for about 3 years now. I love chatting with her and always feel so incredible and beautiful when I'm done! I always come in with unhelpful and vague ideas of what I want, yet somehow Abigail takes all of this input and gives me a beautiful cut and blowout everytime! Highly recommend this studio. As an added bonus, it's also so gorgeous and airy on the inside.“

“I had an appointment with Isabel, she was amazing, she had come in on a day that they were closed just for me. I got a Keratin treatment and everything during the appointment went smoothly. My hair feels amazing after I will be going back to her if i ever need a touch up.“

“Donald for massage! Kim for nails! Nicole for facials!

I have been coming to La Belle for many years and always receive amazing service. Highlights include:

Donald for massage - he is truly amazing and hands down the best massage therapist I've ever had (and I have been to many over the years). He has amazing technique and knows exactly what to do in order to provide immediate and lasting relief from aches, pains, and spasms. I have become a regular due to how incredible his technique is. Chronic and acute pains are relieved immediately after seeing Donald and there is almost never any lingering muscle soreness afterward. Donald is so so friendly and always goes above and beyond to provide a relaxing environment and amazing massage.

Kim for nails - she always does a perfect job and knows what shapes and colors look best. While La Belle is a bit pricier than the usual nail joint - it's worth paying extra knowing you'll have an appointment, on time, and a comfortable and relaxing environment.

Nicole for facials - she is so so good and knows all the products and is able to adjust and customize based on skin type. No matter what facial I get with Nicole - my skin always feel and looks amazing afterward.“

“Natalie does my hair. She does a great shampoo/massage and does not use too much product.“

“Hands and Feet down (all puns intended); my new favorite nail salon. Friendly nice conversation, and did a great job. Was easy to set an appointment. Prices very reasonable, considering Palo Alto. Will be back!“

“Jade was my stylist today and she did such an incredible job. I am so in love with my hair!!! I got exactly what I wanted.

She washed my hair and gave me an incredible head massage while she was at it and it was truly life-changing.

She’s also so personable, funny, and sweet! If you’re in her chair, you’re in good hands.

I will definitely be going back! Thank you, Jade!“

“I used to go here all the time and had a great experience every time! The location is clean, and has seating for you to wait for your stylist along with shampoo stations and a bunch of seats. It feels modern, and all their stylists are well trained and good at what they do.“

“Nancy Bee Salon in Palo Alto continues to offer quality services in all areas. Nancy, the proprietor of the salon, is an incredibly talented stylist and well worth the one hour drive for me. She also offers waxing, pedicures, manicure, acrylic, etc nails“

“I have a pedi with Annie at Annabelle Salon in Palo Alto regularly. She does such a great job and my pedi looks great for a long time! Thank you!“

“Great haircuts by Richard, very friendly, consistent and quality service. My go-to barber in Palo Alto“

“Had a wonderful experience. Both the colorist and the junior stylist did an awesome job.“

“Saye does amazing work! Will replicate any style and my hair is looking healthier than ever since having her maintain my locs and provide guidance.“

“John the Barber does great men’s haircuts here! He used to work at Sam’s on Lytton around the corner. Same price now at Color Theory. I tried ~10 barbers in PA and RWC and my wife liked John’s cuts the best, so he’s been cutting my hair for a few years now. 10/10 recommend!“

“I’m very picky about my haircut and for 13 years I had been going all the way to San Francisco to get it done. But when I discovered Halima Sabrane, I was so happy — finally, I’m 100% satisfied with my haircut! She’s not only an amazing hairstylist, but also incredibly easy to book an appointment with. Once, I needed a last-minute style, and she even made time for me on a Sunday. Best of all, when I explain what I want, she gets it exactly right. I recommend her to anyone who wants to look beautiful☺️“

“I have been coming here for years and they have always done a great job! Very professional and kind—I definitely recommend coming here“

“I’ve been coming here for about a year and have had a great experience every time. I always leave happy with my haircut.“

“Innocente was wonderful with my little autistic grandson. We only got one bang cut but we now have a friend in her, and we will practice getting haircuts so its not so scary. Thanks and ? recommend!“

“Pam Romero is an absolute goddess and hair artist. She is exceptional. I am always happy with how my hair turns out, and have been with her for years!“

“Shayla did an amazing job on the haircut! Understood what I wanted and made great recommendations as well.“

“Cindy is hands down one of the best haircuts I’ve had. She has nearly 40 years of experience and it shows immediately — she’s precise, efficient, and understands hair at a level most stylists don’t.

If you have Asian hair, she’s especially good. She knows how to work with thickness, texture, and growth patterns instead of just cutting blindly. The result looks clean, natural, and actually grows out well.

What stood out most is that she really listens. You can explain what you want (even vaguely), and she translates it into something that fits your face and style.

If you’ve struggled to find someone who consistently gets it right, Cindy is worth trying.“

“First time customer. Very nice salon, great amenities. Great style and cut with beard/mustache trim. Relaxing hot towel, shampoo and scalp treatment. Will book again.“

“I’ve been back twice now–once for a gel manicure and another time for eyebrow threading. Both times, Helen did a wonderful job. High quality services at affordable prices!“

“I got my hair cut with Hudy and she did an absolutely beautiful job!!! She is sweet, professional, and very talented. Will definitely be returning for another curly cut in the future :)“

“Kat is the best! Had her cut my hair for 8 years. She's always consistently done an amazing job. Initially I went here because I lived close. But then I moved further, and I still found my way here because no one does it better than Kat.
Strongly recommended!“
