“Y'all didn't lie- John was fantastic. He listened, kept things simple and I left with the exact hair I wanted. I always leave a salon kinda wishing something was different, but not here. I also loved the products he used, and he's just great company as well.“

“Long overdue review - I've been coming to this salon for the past 3 years and am so thankful I found it! I've been seeing Angelica for hair coloring since I moved to SF 7 years ago. Boy am I happy I found her!!! Not only is she the sweetest to chat with and remembers all the little things you share with her, but is very collaborative in her approach - she listens to what you want and gives feedback when you ask but without being pushy of her opinion and we always land exactly where I envision! She's very attentive to detail and takes pride in using clean hair products and ensuring you are happy with the result before you leave. She knows my hair well at this point and I fully trust her with it. I will follow her anywhere she goes (and I already did, in fact - as she was at a different salon when we first met :)) I work with Lacey for my cuts and she is also so fantastic! I see her around every 6 months and am so happy every time. I really appreciate her knowledge on which styles work best for my face shape and also how I can best style or maintain my hair after the cut. We've played around quite a bit and it's gotten to the point where Lacey just knows what I like and I let her work her magic! And as for the salon space itself - very spacious with high ceilings, super super clean and I love how well lit the space is. I feel very relaxed when I'm here for my ~3 hr long appointments !“

“Deb is amazing, I've been coming to her for nearly a decade. Everything from short chops, to long wavy extensions, curly or straight, blond or brown - she's nailed any look I throw at her and steers me away from ones that won't work for me. Christina at her salon is also great, and everyone I see leaving her chair looks fabulous. I wouldn't trust my hair with anyone else.“

“Mari has been my most trusted hairstylist to date, especially since moving to SF in 2021 and having to find a new colorist. She has kept my hair beautiful and healthy through years of bleach and tones. I appreciate how Mari is collaborative and so knowledgable when exploring different cuts and colors.Mari and Chauntae have created a warm, inclusive, and fun environment for all hair needs and genuine connection. As a queer person of color, it's been rewarding to support a LGBTQ+ business. And they're just really good at what they do. I can't recommend Habitat Hair Salon enough!“

“If you're a blonde or want to go blonde - this is the place to go in SF. Amazing blonde specialist. And I'm not talking about highlights, I'm talking about the range from platinum to pure white granny hair. I'm super happy and Holly was very nice. My platinum blonde is the brightest than it's ever been. Very healthy too.“

“So I showed up with a pretty vague description of what I wanted but Tanya was basically like, "I got this," and the next thing you know I've got one of the best haircuts I've had in my entire life. I am SO happy with the way my hair turned out, and I will absolutely be returning to this salon!“

“There are so many amazing things to say about this special salon. From their stylist to their green principles, I'm just simply obsessed!! I booked a cut and head massage with Kelly. There's always a little worry when you try a new salon and stylist, especially when you have hair that is difficult to cut and a very particular style. First, I've never received a head massage like this before. It helped alleviate so much tension. I'll definitely be requesting for a longer session next time!! She held such great space and has such great vibes. By the end, my hair cut was perfect. Simple and sophisticated. I live in Marin and drove an hr and half round trip from a recommendation and let's just say, it was well worth the trip and will definitely be back. And to top it off, trusting that everything they use is clean and conscious just made the whole experience feel good inside and out. Thank you so much Kelly and Principal Salon!! You guys are amazing!!“

“Sami is my hair doctor… thee hair doctor! and I’m grateful to have found her. I started going there over a year ago but recently was convinced to join a friend to get my haircut elsewhere. Huge mistake! I went back to Sami within the week to fix the mess. She knows hair and transformed a terrible cut into a style I’m happy with. She’s a pleasure to visit, walk-ins are welcomed, and the prices can’t be beat. I recommend her to everyone!“

“I came to Jesse for the first time after someone jacked up my color. He fixed it and did a fabulous job coloring and cutting my hair for a long time. Because of location, I went to another salon - they fried my hair. I came back to JESSE and again he came through with a keratin treatment and SAVED my hair once again! I love this salon and LOVE JESSE!“

“Thomas is an artist! I brought in a picture of the cut and style I was looking for and Thomas new exactly what to do. I love my new cut.“

“Ben and his assistant are a fantastic team. I am picky about my haircuts, and I dread looking for new people to do my hair. I showed Ben a couple of pictures. He asked me some questions. He did a wonderful job of blending my layers. Since I have thick hair, I like the results when stylists use a razor to thin my hair, and Ben did an excellent job of this. (I will only be in San Fran for 3 more weeks. I wish I had found Ben sooner.)“

“I love my new hair color! Shane takes time to talk about what you want and how he can help. He made sure it was colored without brassiness. I’ll be back!!!“

“Ana has been my hairstylist for about 10 years. She is very skilled and confident in what she does. I personally like that she has an artistic eye and will suggest what haircut or haircolor looks better on you upon request. Her tasteful choice of music playing in the background adds to the general ambiance. Her salon is conveniently located in the vibrant Mission street neighborhood and is easily accessible by BART (get off at Mission/ 16th and walk for 10 min). I have long thick, but fine hair and I color it medium brown. The haircuts I get with Ana are easy to maintain and does not require a lot of styling. I wash it and blow dry and it looks gret. I don't live in San Francisco, but continue to make time to return to Heartzilla, because Ana truly is a rare find!“

“Dana was able to smooth out/fix a previous haircut i had gotten elsewhere and brought life back to my dry hair with an olaplex treatment. He is kind, patient, and not at all judgy - he listens to what you want and makes it happen! The salon is warm and chic. You can’t make a mistake by getting your hair cut at Salon Nuna.Service: Haircut“

“My husband and I have both been going to Eman for our hair for years! I almost always get a cut and color and my husband typically does a fade haircut. He always takes him time to consult on what we want (whether it's our usual or something new) and he seamlessly upgrades our looks each time! We enjoy our time in the chair with him and having time to catch up since our last visit. Eman's studio is located conveniently on Market St, which makes it easy to go during the work week or even easy for us to BART over from the East Bay on the weekend. I would most definitely recommend him if you're looking for a fresh cut and to build a good relationship with your hair stylist!“
