“I don’t normally leave reviews but I got my hair done for the first time by Ming at the Moon about a month ago & it honestly changed my life! I was so nervous because of so many previous bad experiences and for the first time I feel like I got exactly what I wanted. She made me feel so comfortable it felt more like Catching up with an old friend then a hair appointment, Even tho i didn’t really know how to explain what I was looking for she was able to give me exactly what I wanted & needed. A month later and I’m still glowing from my new look! It has given me so much confidence and I just feel so beautiful. Not to mention I also left with a stylish fur coat & some cute new hair accessories10/10 highly recommend“

“top-notch salon especially for color treatment and fancy kind of hairstyles. Great place to go if you're putting on make up for a TV show or a costume party or Halloween or whatever prices are competitive for downtown Santa Cruz. Best of all they have DJs on Friday nights, and the place turns into a bit of a party. Plenty of local artists show their work and they have fashion shows coming up.“

“Just had my first cut done here with Lauren and I can’t say enough what a great experience it was. Lauren put real time and effort into finding out the style I was looking for and then executed it beautifully. Her thoughtfulness and care made all the difference. It’s been many years since I’ve had a haircut that made me so happy. It’s a bonus that the salon itself is gorgeous with amazing light. Plus online booking and not feeling pressured to buy products are major pluses. I finally have a salon I’m happy to become a regular at!“

“Ginger is the rock star of curly hair styling. I had my first hair cut at Medusa recently and Ginger taught me how to style my hair. You know when your stylist does your hair in the salon and it looks great and you assume you won't be able to duplicate what she did? Well, that was not the case with Ginger. She taught me how to style my curly hair and it looked and felt the same way she did it after I styled it at home and I used the products I had used prior. I am so please with my curls. They are now soft and controlled and I am flaunting my curls once again.“

“This salon is adorable. These ladies really work miracles. The expertise in color is amazing. I took my co-worker/friend as a birthday gift for her color which was over grown and increasingly gray boxed dyed hair. She was very nervous since she knew it wasn’t going to be a simple job. They added perfect matched hi/low lights to blend her existing color with the new growth and made it so her growing grey isn’t so shocking. Truly transformed her hair and self confidence! It was nice to see how they work as a team together and willing to share/teach techniques in the process.“
