Best Hair Salons In San Clemente

“I had such an incredible experience at Salon Locale and can’t recommend Heather enough. She’s the owner and truly operates at a master level, confident, detail oriented, and clearly very skilled in her craft. From the moment I sat in her chair, she took the time to understand exactly what I wanted and translated it into results that felt even better than I expected.

What stood out most was how intentional and thoughtful the entire appointment felt. Heather doesn’t rush. She explains what she’s doing, checks in throughout, and makes sure you feel comfortable and heard the whole time. You can tell she genuinely cares about the end result and about the health and integrity of your hair, not just the final look.

Her assistant Coco was also fantastic, warm, attentive, and so helpful throughout the process. She kept everything running smoothly, was kind and welcoming, and made the whole experience feel relaxed and well taken care of from start to finish.

Between Heather’s expertise and Coco’s support, the whole visit felt seamless. It’s one of those rare salon experiences where you leave not only loving your hair, but also feeling like you were in the hands of people who really know what they’re doing and take pride in it.

Honestly it’s everything you hope for when you book an appointment. Skilled, professional, welcoming, and consistently high quality!!!!!“

“I absolutely love going to Kati! She is a talented stylist and somehow manages to be both fast and incredibly detailed. I recently saw her for a low-maintenance blonding service, and I’m so happy with the dimension and color, it turned out exactly how I hoped. I came in with only a few picture examples, and she was able to create the cut and color I was looking for. She has a great eye for what works and I always leave feeling so happy with my hair. The salon has a calm, welcoming vibe, her prices are fair, and I always leave feeling confident and so happy with my hair. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a stylist who truly listens and delivers beautiful results!“

“Jacqui is amazing! My whole experience from consultation to my hair appointment was so thoughtful. They made me feel like I was truly taken care of. She perfectly matched my hair and wanted also wanted to keep the integrity of my hair a top priority too. You can tell they love what they do and want you to love your hair and experience. Love my new hair and the salon!“

“Korrie did absolutely amazing! After having my 4th baby I feel absolutely beautiful with my hair now!!“

“Come for the hair, stay for the vibes. Not only is Val magic with hair but her eye for detail extends to every inch of the salon. It’s so awesome to get exactly what you want AND do it in such a chill, beautiful space.“

“Megan is always great. She does a excellent job cutting my hair every time. I have been going here for several years and I have always had a positive, professional, and friendly experience. I love how easy it is to book an appointment up to two days before you go. You can choose the person you want to cut your hair. ????“

“I’ve been going to Sasha for over a decade, and there is truly no one like her. She’s not just an incredibly talented hairstylist — she’s someone my entire family trusts. My husband, our two teenage daughters, and even my sisters and their families now see her because once you experience Sasha’s work, you don’t want to go anywhere else.

She consistently delivers beautiful results, really listens, and somehow knows exactly what each of us needs, whether it’s a fresh cut, color, or a total refresh. Beyond the amazing skills, Sasha is warm, reliable, and makes every appointment genuinely enjoyable.

We feel lucky to have found her. If you’re looking for a stylist you can stick with for years, Sasha is the one. Highly recommend!“

“Took a chance with Bowhead and won. Audri is awesome. She’s cut my hair multiple times. With every haircut she has taken her time, never rushing to get through my appointment. Audri demonstrates her skill, precision and attention to detail with every cut. Always leave feeling a lighter and cuter! Thanks Audri!“

“Tiare is hands down one of the best stylist!
She knows her craft and professionally for many years. She did my hair as well as my husband who was as impressed as I am!
We lucked out in finding her while we were visiting in San Clemente. We will visit her again for sure!“

“Best Stylist in South OC. I always have a superior experience and never schedule. I simply walk in. I'm always greeted immediately and seated within minutes. I love results every time I come out of there. Easy parking. Great team, walk ins accepted, and always a short or no wait. Reasonable pricing, great value. Dan, Christine and Diana provide excellent service exactly to your preference. Please go and see them...“

“Cyn, the talented stylist at “Sports Clips Haircuts,” provided exceptional service and attention to detail during my quick neck trim.

Despite my intention to get a quick trim and be out in five, Cyn treated it with the same level of care and professionalism as a full appointment. She meticulously cleaned up my neckline with precise clipper work, ensuring symmetry from multiple angles before finishing.

From the moment I sat down, Cyn’s warm and upbeat attitude, coupled with her exceptional attention to detail, made the visit stand out. Her polished personal presentation, friendly demeanor, and professional presence elevated the entire experience. It was evident that she takes genuine pride in her work and it seemed that’s she cares about her customers and clients alike.

Impressed by Cyn’s excellent customer service and midwest type of politeness, I decided to request the shampoo service and a relaxing scalp massage. Cyn was incredibly accommodating. The combination of shampoo and scalp massage left me feeling incredibly relaxed. When she offered me an additional five minutes for only six dollars, I couldn’t resist. I took some deep breaths and may have even fallen asleep for a minute or two.

The entire appointment, particularly thanks to Cyn’s exceptional service, recharged and refreshed me. The spontaneous clean-up felt like a full-service appointment rather than a simple touch-up or neck trim. Cyn went above and beyond what was necessary, which is rare in today’s world where I find that most people don’t put that much energy into their jobs anymore.

I left the salon looking refreshed and in a noticeably better mood. Highly recommended Cyn, and that you visit Sports Clips soon!“

“Where has this salon been all my life?! From start to finish, my experience was a total 10/10. Steph was so welcoming, and an amazing stylist. My hair has never looked this good; it’s shiny, bouncy, and totally transformed. Plus, the whole place has this great energy. Can’t recommend this place enough—my hair and I have found our new home!“

“I have had the pleasure of having my hair done by Nicole for several years now and I couldn’t be happier with how she has cared for me and for my hair. I asked a mutual friend if she knew of someone high vibe and heart-centered that was an amazing hairstylist… this led me to Nicole. She creates a warm, inviting atmosphere and gives great hair education- so helpful as I’m not super in the know.

Also, having a rather sensitive scalp, it floored me that it never hurt when she brushed my hair as in other salons! This has been a relief for sure.

I highly recommend her!“

“My first time visiting the salon. Lyndi did an AMAZING job with my bleach highlight! I have been to so many stylists who messed up my hair. Lyndi is very sweet and listens to want you want. I love my color and would highly recommend recommend her!“

“Holly really seemed to understand my hair type and was really knowledgeable about how to cut and style it. She made me feel comfortable and I felt confident walking out of the salon. She'll be my go-to hairdresser!“

“Great salon!! Tracy was great!! This was definitely the best haircut of my life. Will be going back highly recommended“

“I miss my guru stylish so much. Cha is kind, talented, thorough, perfectionistic in the best way, and a true master. I always left Sanctuary in love with my hair and feeling full of gratitude. Nick and company are absolute professionals. Sanctuary is THE place to indulge, discover luxury self care and get a stunning cut, color and root coverage should you need it. I can’t recommend highly enough.“

“Jackie is the best!She has been doing my hair for 18+years and I always get Premier service with great outcomes.People stop me to ask " who does your Hair?"Whether its Color ,Cut, Blow dry or Keratin treatment its always right on and you leave looking and feeling your Best!Jackie's beautiful smile and warm attitude makes your time with her an absolute pleasure.Not to mention the Lovely & Welcoming location in San Clemente just across from the beach.Thank you Jackie for keeping my Hair Fabulous!“

“Cambria will always be the best . Color every time is soooo blended and perfectly natural .. I don’t get my hair done often and it always seamlessly grows out without looking like a giant strip. Her heart is in her work you can certainly tell . Love her !“

“I happily drive from LA to San Clemente for Julietta—she’s that talented. Incredible stylist, beautiful salon, and always a flawless experience. Highly recommend!“
