Cindy and her sister set an early 8am appointment just to color, shampoo, blowdry, cut, curl and style our mother! She was happy and satisfied with their professional services. After she had Lani give her extra eyelashes to make her younger and beautiful again. For women, beauty care is important for health care. Note: they are ADA compliant but maybe only 4 stars because this business posts the sign 'we reserve the right to refuse service to anyone' -- but to who?

Cindy was absolutely excellent! I texted her in the morning to ask for a haircut at her earliest convenience and she fit me just a few hours later. I showed her a few inspiration photos, and she gave me the perfect low maintenance haircut! It's been a little over a month since my cut and it is growing out so nicely. She was very affordable for such a wonderful experience. Will definitely be returning to Cindy!

I love coming to this Salon because they always do me so right! Usually Cindy herself does my hair but today she recommended Laura. I trust Cindy 100% so I trusted Laura ! Laura was very sweet and took the time to listen to what I wanted! She saw my inspo pics and said I got you! After my hair wash, my hair felt lighter and fuller after a good chop! Definitely recommend her and everyone at this shop !

I got my hair done by Cindy and Tina back in March. My hair was long overdue for a color and cut, but Cindy and Tina made sure my hair blended nicely! Both of them were so nice and kind throughout the whole process. I love that they both deeply care about the integrity of the hair. It has been 6 months and I still get compliments on my hair since it grew out so nicely! I’m due for a touch up and will definitely be coming back to Cindy and Tina. Highly recommend them both!!

Cindy is the only person I trust with my hair color. She performs highlights, cut, color, and styling in about 5 hours, and it's well worth every minute. She cares about the quality of her work and has a great team behind her. I leave the salon feeling confident and beautiful everytime I step inside her doors. You can tell that she loves her craft and she is excellent at it, to say that I highly recommend her is an understatement. Once you meet Cindy and she performs her magic, you will be a client for life.

Came for a Brazilian blowout and ended up getting Keratin after learning the difference. Cindy & Tina are experienced and professional. I am very picky and know not everyone can handle 3b/ 3c curls. My hair came out 10/10! No crazy fumes with their keratin, and my hair is much much more manageable. Cindy has over 11 years experience and is a hard worker. I will go back when it’s time. She does keratin multiple times a week even though her ig shows mostly color and cuts. If you see her stories you’ll see the keratin difference. I also love that you can text her for appointments. Also the price for Bay Area is actually very affordable. Thanks Cindy!
