THE DAVID SALON REVIEWS

Have been getting my curly hair haircuts from Sophia here for a while now! Always so nice to see her and does a phenomenal job! I've struggled with getting decent haircuts specifically for curly hair and from the first visit she educated me on how to properly style my hair and guided me through what she did. She always does amazing and I feel so much more confident now! All the staff I've interacted with are super kind and helpful. Recommended this salon to a lot of friends and they've all loved coming here.

I love Jessie! She really listens to what you want and I have received so many compliments on my hair since going to her. It’s taken me years to find someone as skilled, amazing and kind as Jessie. Not only is she just the best hairstylist I’ve ever had, she is also a wonderful person.

Katherine Montero is always on time, knows how to do my blowout whether it’s straight, curly, or braids. She knows what is good for my hair and scalp. She’s thorough in her explanation when using products. Definitely trust her with my hair.

VANILLA SALON REVIEWS

My hairstylist Kat is amazing as always! She’s given me so many great tips on how to maintain my hair health and always gave me the exact color I wanted! The service in this salon is also amazing and Kat genuinely cares about her clients. She always stands by protecting your hair over achieving the drastic changes in results instantly. Through my sessions with her I have found myself putting more and more effort into keeping my hair healthy.

I had such a great experience with Julie! She did my long extensions and they turned out amazing. The length, blend, and overall look are so natural and exactly what I wanted. She really took her time to make sure everything looked perfect and made me feel comfortable the whole appointment. My hair feels beautiful and I’ve gotten so many compliments already. I definitely recommend Julie if you’re looking for high-quality extensions.

Kat is the best!!! After all my hair fell out after surgery, I knew i needed an expert to help me. Right from the start, Kat was knowledgeable and thorough when it came to my hair goals. Best service.

THE LIVINGROOM SALON & ART GALLERY REVIEWS

Had a wonderful time with Trini at The Living Room! Trini was so attentive with my entire experience. From greeting to cut, wash to styling, I was given so much care. Also, I was introduced to the amazing products from Ombré. The product elevated my new cut and left me feeling extra fresh. I have finally found a salon that makes me feel relaxed and empowered to be myself through my hair. Cant wait to go back! Thanks Trini.

Kat and Kris have been my hair stylist & colorist for years and I'm always impressed with their work. I'd highly recommend them to people looking for exactly what they want. I absolutely love them! And the salon is very artistic, the vibes perfect.

Lolo is my hair stylist. I have been coming here for over ten years. Friendly staff, easy, artsy vibe. Parking can be a challenge, but give yourself a few minutes and enjoy the sunshine with a short walk.
