Hair Stylists in San Mateo

“Maggie is the best! Thanks to her, I get compliments on my haircut all the time. Followed her to the new San Mateo location…will be following her wherever she goes, she can’t get rid of me, hehe!“

“Its been a pleasure to have Dinna styling my hair for years, and she is truly exceptional. With over 25 years of experience, she understands that no two heads of hair are the same. She takes the time to ask questions, learn your hair’s history, and tailor both cut and color to your specific texture, condition, and goals, without causing damage.

My daughter and I both see her, and she consistently delivers beautiful, healthy results every time. She has a deep knowledge of hair, color, and how different chemicals interact, which gives me total confidence in her work.

On top of that, she has a wonderful personality and makes every appointment enjoyable. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely understands hair and cares about getting it right, Dinna is the one.“

“Jackie is an amazing hairstylist! I have been seeing her for years across different locations, and every visit is perfect. She always wants to make your vision happen if possible, and she is incredibly accommodating. Today’s visit has to be one of my favorites! I got a short jellyfish cut with blonde peekaboo highlights. She gave me the idea of dying the two front parts in my hair and I love it even more! She always wants you to look your best! Thank you, Jackie!“

“Haleh did a great job with my hair! She made it easy to schedule an appointment and made sure I was happy with the cut and color. Highly recommend!“

“We fly all the way from Palm Beach, Florida just to see Michelle—and she is worth every mile. Her ability to transform hair is pure artistry. She has an incredible eye, effortlessly choosing tones that perfectly complement your complexion and enhance your natural features.

Her balayage is seamless and so natural that my mom is constantly stopped and asked where she gets her hair done. Beyond her talent, Michelle is deeply knowledgeable about everything she uses—from color to shampoo to conditioning treatments—ensuring your hair not only looks beautiful but stays healthy.

If you want your hair to look truly incredible, go to Michelle. I fly cross country to see her, and I wouldn’t trust anyone else.“

“Thank you for working your magic on me, my daughter, and my best friend, making us look stunning yet effortlessly natural for my son's wedding. You arrived punctually and stayed true to your timeline, which made the day run so smoothly. You listened attentively to all my requests and graciously accommodated every detail. Your warmth and ease made us feel so comfortable--like you were part of the family. Having you handle our hair and makeup truly took the stress out of getting ready. I was amazed at how flawless everything stayed from morning until late at night! You clearly have a gift for making people feel and look their best. I highly recommend you and will definitely call you for our next event. Thank you, Elena! ~Maria~“

“I had a haircut with Mahnaz last week. Her salon was pretty clean and nice. She is a nice lady and asked about my preference patiently and then gave me the best haircut in my entire life. I highly recommend Mahnaz because you can trust her about her skills and professionalism. Thank you“

“I had a haircut with stylist King today. Loving it! He is probably the best hair stylist in the Peninsula area. I showed him the reference picture, and he got it immediately, coming up with a plan that was perfectly suitable for my face. Within one hour, the results were delivered perfectly. Highly recommended.“

“Ever since I found Yuna's salon, I can't go anywhere else. She's the top stylist in the Bay Area in my opinion. She's totally transformed the way I look, just with my hair alone. I constantly get compliments from people, asking where I go. People even go to her to fix their hair, after it gets messed up by another salon they went to in order to pay less.

At other salons, even if I get the senior stylist, I'd always worry about how it will turn out. There'd always be one or a few things that I'd be disappointed by, and I'd have to wait a few weeks for my hair to grow out and hide it. With Yuna, I can literally just close my eyes and fully trust her skills.

Other stylists usually get my hair to a basic level and do the same generic things they're used to doing. Yuna custom tailors my haircut and styling to me, paying close attention to the little details, how it looks at each angle, and what enhances my features. The best part is she also does finishing touch ups after shampooing, making sure the final results are perfect.

Also, when I get perms or do both color and perm on the same day with other stylists, my hair would immediately be very dry and damaged for months. It would even be hard to style because it'd be so rough. But I feel like Yuna not only cares about how my hair looks, but also its health. She gives me advice for the long term health of my hair, she's like a hair doctor. And my hair is always left looking and feeling silky smooth.

There are many stylists in the Bay Area that try to do Korean and Asian style perms and down perms, but nobody does them as well as Yuna. Her haircut, perm, color, and styling skills are on a level above. And she doesn't hand you off to a junior stylist either, you get her every time. She's worth the premium, and I only wish I found her sooner!“

“The atmosphere in this beauty salon is very relaxing. Because of the stylists' style and demeanor, you will not feel intimidated. There is no pressure to overdo anything in terms of fashion style or hair unless you want to. In addition, they use excellent products at just the right price. It is also a pleasure to work with Sasha's mother, she does color, and hairstyle just beautiful. It is always a pleasure to work with Sasha on make up, and she listens to what you want, whether casual or more formal. The place is wonderful and highly recommended if you want a relaxing experience and the hair and make-up you really desire. El ambiente en este salón de belleza es muy relajante. Debido al estilo y comportamiento de los estilistas, no se sentirá intimidado. No hay presión para exagerar nada en términos de estilo de moda o cabello a menos que lo desee. Además, utilizan excelentes productos al precio justo. Siempre es un placer trabajar con Sasha y su madre bien sea en el maquillaje, tu cabello, el color porque ellas escuchan y respetan lo que quieres, ya sea casual o más formal. El lugar es maravilloso y muy recomendable si quieres una experiencia relajante y el peinado y maquillaje que realmente deseas.“

If you're like me, struggling to muster the energy to wash your hair during the cold winter and dreading heading out to find a salon on a busy weekend, I finally found the perfect place. After searching for a weekend-friendly option, I stumbled upon this gem, and I'm so glad I did! Paolo, the stylist, is incredibly kind and welcoming. She gave me a fantastic service, leaving my hair feeling fresh, bouncy, and totally revived after a wash and blow-dry. The price is very reasonable, and it’s definitely worth it if you're looking for a little pampering without the hassle of doing it yourself. Just a tip—don't compare prices with what you'd pay back home; remember, you're in the USA! This place is a great choice, and Paolo will make your day better, guaranteed. Highly recommend it for anyone feeling lazy or in need of a little self-care.“

“I have been going to Mila since I moved to the area back in 2022. I have never once left the salon unhappy with my hair and Mila is the sweetest person who works with you to achieve your hair goals. She is nothing short of fantastic and I highly recommend her!!“
