donna manders Ingrid is such a talented stylist with a special ability to connect and listen to her clients in the warmest way. She is a master of style, cuts and coloring with an amazing eye for the best looks. I have so much gratitude for her; her insight, great style advice and her amazing talent. She is such a gem and I can promise youll love how you look and feel when you are in her chair. I highly recommend her - she is a real master of her craft.

Debra Bianco IngridHairInspiration- A True Master of Her Craft and an inspiration. Ingrid Yael is, quite simply, a revelation. Not only is she incredibly knowledgeable and gifted in her craft, but she possesses that rare ability to truly listen—something many stylists overlook. She is the first colorist and stylist I’ve encountered who genuinely takes the time to understand my desires, not impose her vision upon me. For many women, the biggest fear when sitting in a stylist’s chair is leaving with a haircut or color that reflects someone else’s vision, not their own. Ingrid eliminates that fear entirely. She creates an atmosphere of comfort and trust, making you feel heard and valued. She doesn’t rush; instead, she takes the time to listen, explain, and even introduce something fresh and creative, all while ensuring it aligns with your vision. What else can I say? It’s Ingrid Yael. For those who know me, you understand—I don’t trust just anyone with my hair. Ingrid is the exception, and once you experience her expertise, you’ll understand why.

Jenn Pepo Cheyenne is the best!!! Took a trip and before I could get on my first flight two ladies paid me (or Cheyenne) some great compliments!!! One told me she LOVED my color and another told me she saw my hair and thought it was gorgeous! What a way to start my vaca!! Thank you Cheyenne ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Way to make a lady feel good about herself!!

Kirby Kushner Cheyenne at Mane Tribe Salon is hands down the best stylist Ive ever had work on my hair. I have very fine hair that gets dried ends and she works her magic every time. Mostly I see her for a hair cut with a glaze to make my naturally dark brunette hair richer and more shiny. Cannot recommend her enough, besides being a talented stylist shes sweet, personable and makes each appointment feel so special.

Michael Williams Couldnt get anyone to answer the phone to book an appointment. Called 8 different people from the salon with no luck

Susan Rosenberg Kristine is fantastic in hair removal. I recently had my face- brows. Nose. And eyebrows. Lips done and those stray coarse hairs.. Two weeks later and they are fantastic! I have tried a lot of estheticians and she is the best! Even told me about a gentle powder exfoliator she carries that is great and I have noticed difference already! Affordable and great! What more could you ask for!?

TIFFANY GROPP Hayley has been doing my extensions and balayage for years now and her pricing is so reasonable! Before going to her I got quotes for triple the price. And the hair extensions that she uses last for so long. I’ll never go to anyone else again! People constantly ask who does my hair, and are so happy when I send them to her. I give Hayley my highest recommendation! @thehairgirly

Rosie Wysong Veronica does my familys hair and its always amazing! Ben seeing her for about 15 years. Love the privacy of Sola Salon

Michael Millea Michelle is the best! In addition to being one of the most kind and loving people I know

Sheila M Michelle is so great. I have REALLY thick hair with lots of grays and horrible texture after pregnancy. Id tried numerous stylists throughout the years trying to find someone who could successfully manage all three problems. Then I thankfully found Michelle about 8 years ago and stayed with her until I moved out of state. AND she has the biggest heart and is one of the kindest people youll ever meet.

Laura LaPiana I only went once to get a curly girl cut. Michele was very nice. The salon is modest.

Joeli Gutfleisch Freebird Hair Studio is a beautiful, charming five star hair salon! Michelle Carson is creative and passionate and has been my stylist/colorist for 12 years. I always look forward to going to her beautiful cottage and always leave feeling relaxed, inspired and very happy with my hair! I would highly recommend Freebird Hair Studio and Michelle Carson. - Joeli Gutfleisch

Jeff price A great place for both men and womens haircare.

Margie M Lisa is the best. Shes been doing my hair over 30 years and I will follow here wherever she goes. The Salon is very nice and I hope she stays there and close to where I live.

Francie LaRue Lovely salon….. lovely atmosphere. Mainly I have used Christi who has done my hair for several years and does a beautiful job and cutting and color.

Julie Tucker Great place! The stylists are talented and easy to schedule with. The atmosphere has a great vibe, somehow peaceful and fun. They have been very kind in helping people too.

Renae McBrian Kiana is great! My sons haircut is perfect, and we will definitely be going back!

Alyssa Brunton Kiley was great in helping me with my new wig! It can be scary and vulnerable when dealing with thinning hair, particularly at a younger age. Kiley was non judgemental and normalized wearing a wig for confidence. She altered and cut the wig to best fit me, and also helping me with any fitting issues I had! Highly recommend if you are looking for that support and expertise!

Ashley Ann Harris Ive been seeing Kiley for years for my hair extensions. She is a MASTER at her craft and the only person I would ever trust to apply them. They look so natural and I always get so many compliments on my hair. Not only is she SO talented, Kiley is also the sweetest, kindest person in the world and I look forward to our time together. I always leave her salon feeling so beautiful and uplifted.

Michelle Lockard I have been going to Kiley for 10+ years. She absolutely amazing! If you are looking for someone to do hair extensions, she is absolutely the person you should go to.

Kim K Kylie is an amazing hair dresser and has such a positive kind and cheerful personality. She creates gorgeous natural looking blondes and red heads. I recommend you check out her Facebook site- see gorgeous pictures of her work. Both my cousin and I have been seeing her for 10+ years. She creates beautiful natural looking wigs for my cousin too. She has a private room for treating clients with hair loss.

Patricia Atkinson I LOVE this salon. I get the greatest cut and styling I’ve ever had. Kiley and her staff are very friendly and helpful. It a pleasure to have Kiley style my hair. The style remains easy to care for until my next visit.

Barry Schneider It a place that meets my needs , price experience, friendliness, and convenience. Recommend

Angel Llanes Always nice and friendly service thank u so much joana

Paul Rivas Silvia is the best. Talented, friendly and collaborative. Does cuts for men, women and various ages. Nice local shop in a populated strip mall with a lots of parking.

Dianna Davis Beautiful salon. I especially love Cassidy! She fixed my hair when it was botched by another hair dresser and i have been seeing her ever since. She always cuts my hair beautifully and about every 18 months, I have her balayage my hair. It always comes out perfectly! I get complements on the color all the time. Cassidy is very sweet and has a kind heart. She’s extremely knowledgeable and talented.

Catie Consolo See Jenni at Induced Alchemy!

Stephanie Moore Emily Johansen is fantastic! I have been going to her for a few years now and will follow her wherever she goes. She does a great job at layering my hair without making it feel thin and stringy, takes the time to make sure I am happy with the cut, and gives me a haircut that grows out well.

Bryn Kinder After my first visit to Tori B at Salon Republic, I can confidently say that she is an exceptional talent in creating vivid color masterpieces. The way she flawlessly blended the sunset hues in my hair left me in awe. Not only that, but Tori Bs kind and down-to-earth personality made the entire experience delightful. Her professionalism and genuine care for her clients shine through, making her the go-to stylist in the area. If youre looking for a skilled artist who will create magic with your hair while making you feel comfortable and valued, Tori B is the one. I cant wait for my next appointment! #HairGenius

Lorraine Great service the ladies doing my hair were friendly and made me feel right at home, walked through the who process with made sure i got the style and color i wanted. Highly recommend going!

Jasmine de Andres Jessica is truly amazing! From the moment I arrived for my perm and cut, her dedication was evident. She took the time to educate me on styling and caring for my curls while analyzing my face’s symmetry to create a cut that complements my natural features. I’ve never encountered someone as genuinely kind and attentive as her. I’m thrilled to have her looking after my hair!

Alexandra Jessica is an expert of curly hair and always give me great tips to manage my hair. definitely will be returning to her in the future.

Sheann Avery I love my curls again! First time seeing Jessica. She was very pleasant, knowledgeable and fun. I would recommend her to a friend! I always read reviews and noticed a couple of negative reviews but I didnt let that discourage me. If I did ever have a problem, I would go back to tell them. We all pay good money getting our hair done. It usually a good idea to give them a chance to correct it. :)

Ashlee C Jessica is my kind of lady, shes direct and to the point. She knows my curly hair better than I know my own curly hair. She didnt waste my time but instead used that time to really consult and educate me on curly hair that honestly not many straight hair experts even know. She was kind, polite, and well rounded. We had so many conversations and I found my new hairstylist after looking for so long! Thank you Jessica!!!!!

Sylwia Kamboj My experience with Jessica was soooo AWESOME!! I totally put myself into hands of professional, who did not ask series of detailed questions ("how to cut/ style?"), but from the beginning to the end, SHE KNEW what needs to be done. She knows the LANGUAGE of curly hair and its needs. She also thought me how with simple tricks, to bring out the natural beauty of my hair, how to arrange my hair so it shapes my face better. Even more, I have learned THE ESSENTIALS OF CURLY HAIR ROUTINE, that would never hear from any other (straight) hair stylist. thank you Jessica!

Annika Haugan I had an amazing experience at this beautiful salon! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm, welcoming atmosphere that immediately made me feel at ease. The salon itself is stunning—modern, clean, and stylish, with a relaxing vibe that made the entire visit enjoyable. Anne was incredibly friendly and attentive, taking the time to listen to exactly what I wanted. She worked magic on my hair, leaving me feeling like a million bucks. I left with a gorgeous, fresh look and cant wait to return. Highly recommend this gem! Five stars all around!!

Simar Kaur First of all, trying to connect with anyone at the studio is a hassle because no one answers the phone. Second, their website lists 20 different hair straightening treatments, but they only offer Brazilian blowouts, which feels like false advertising. I had to book an appointment for a Brazilian blowout instead of the keratin treatment I originally wanted, and I booked with a stylist named Angela. She applied one cream, straightened my hair, rinsed it off, and then blow-dried it. After just one wash, my hair went back to how it was before the treatment. I basically got scammed out of $300, and when I tried to contact them, I got no response. Be careful if you go to Angela!

Nancy Balbuena Anne is very caring and considerate about her clients. I was very impressed by the survey she sent out to ask questions about my hair. Anne gave me information, suggestions and she spent extra time showing me how to style my hair and use the right products for my hair type.

Tricia Onsgard Angela is the Best! I have been going to her for over 15 years and she always does an amazing job! I always get compliments from my clients and family! I highly recommend her!

Nadine Maxwell-Henry I have been doing electrolysis for decades across the country and in other countries in the world. I have never experienced a more skillful, knowledgeable or faster electrologist than Anne Hannick I appreciate you, Anne! .

Bridget Amato Recently, I have gone to Nadia to get my hair done full highlights and cut. She is very talented and nice. Additionally, my daughter went to Karli for a cut and two small highlights in the front to frame her face. Karli did a great job and very sweet with my daughter if you have kids or teens. I’d choose Karli. My daughter is 8. Last, Anjelisa who works the front desk is there to make sure everyone’s day goes smoothly. Regency Salon Studios has colorists, nail technicians, eye brows specialists, eye lash techs, and best therapeutic massage therapist YogAmato and Massage with competitive prices. Regency Salon Studios is the one stop shop for a self-care day.

Kerry J Nelson Regency Salons are suites independently supported. I go to Naomi and shes fabulous.

Jacqueline Berger Ask for Denise. She is a wonderful personality and wonderful hairdresser,

Norma Parra Lexi is amazing! I love my hair so much..

Jane Applegate Best massage ever from Briget at YogAmato. She is very kind and professional.

Sandra Keppler I am a new client for Kari at The Bungalow Salon. I had a wonderful first visit yesterday and I love my haircut so much. Kari was so patient as I discussed with her certain issues I had in regards to my thin very fine hair. Plus some allergies I have as well. She made me feel very comfortable and I could see she genuinely wanted to be of help to me. She was excited to give me a cute haircut! It was a great first visit and I look forward to my next appointment. Beautiful salon too!!!! Thanks Kari!

Denice Stouffer Was looking for a new hair colorist and stylist since the retirement of my last one. After disappointing experiences decided to try Kari. What a difference! She turned my highlighted hot mess of hair into a beautiful, natural look that complements my coloring. She listened, made suggestions, and made time to really address my hair needs. Her daughter Allie works with her and they are both the nicest people. The salon is beautifully redone and so comfortable. I highly recommend to all.

Amy Jones I’ve been going to Kari for my hair color/cuts for a few years now and she’s amazing! I’m always so thrilled with the results. Added bonus is that she and Ally are both so FUN to chat with. I now have my husband going to her as well and he is so happy with his haircuts.

Amy Levin I have been coming to the bungalow salon for years and I love Kari and Ally!! I get my hair cut and colored. The color is perfect, I always get compliments on it. Having thick hair can be tricky but they have mastered the cut. I can’t recommend them enough :)

Dr. Tanya Altmann Best colorist around! I have been seeing Kari for over 20 years and I always get compliments on my cut and color from friends, random people and TV and news producers. I would never go anywhere else! She also does great mens cuts for my boys. Her new Bungalow Salon is so adorable, clean, and relaxing. I feel like I’ve spent time at the spa, when I leave with my fabulous hair!

Delina Mark What a great job Bunny did! She listened to what my desires for my hair were and did exactly that! Great conversation too! Bright, upbeat. Im going back Good sense of humor too!

Tania Hill My husband and I both see Shaina for a cut, and for COLOR (who knew)! My husband booked her 1st and then suggested I try her for color. Ive seen her twice now for overall color, lowlights / root touch up and/or a trim - she does a fantastic job. Shes also very friendly and sweet (bonus)! Shes a hidden gem at this location, and in high demand from what Ive gathered.

Laurie Campbell I brought my 90 y.o. mom in for a much needed haircut even though she didnt have an appointment and the employees were very welcoming and kind. The young woman who worked with her did a great job. We were very pleased and will be going back. But next time with an appointment!

Jerry Bumbaugh Excellent. First time to this location. Sorry I forgot name but stylist was one just behind the entry counter. She is great. I will be back to see her! Thanks

Patrice Abrenica I love Selina. She cuts my hair exactly how I want and has a very pleasant personality. I hope your company treats her well so she stays forever!

Purpod Gallagher Pranee was recommended by a friend who is a regular "hair" client. Mine was a mess; tried to dye it brown over mostly gray & faded purple & got a tan color that faded right into my skin tone!! Agh! But Pranee was able to not only save the damaged hair, but she brought it back to life with dark brown & purple stripes! YAY! So excited, that Ive been back several times! LOVE Pranee!!

Joe Schmeister Pranee has been cutting my hair for several years. My hair is difficult to cut, but Pranee does an amazing job every time!

shanon rifkin I try to go here at least a couple times a year.

Fern Levine I have been going to Pranee for over 10 years. She is fabulous. Does my hair great every time.

India Schmitt I went to see Gila, who previously worked in Agoura Hills and just moved to Aurora, for the first time yesterday. She is incredibly kind and knowledgeable. I called and she had an appointment for me within a half hour. She convinced me to try out layers for my curly hair while promising to preserve the length. I’m so glad I trusted her because my hair looks fuller and somehow longer too! The salon is a really lovely space. Highly recommend Gila!

Dawnielle Tellez Jessica is the absolute best! I’ve been a client of hers for years, and so have many of my family members. She works quickly, is super consistent, and always works with you to achieve the look you want. I’d 100% recommend her to anyone!!

Noelle Lesinski Jessica J is simply the best of the best. Before coming to Jessica, i was Disappointed in my color, so I walked up to a beautiful woman at the gym with this gorgeous red hair and asked Who does your hair ! She sent me to Jessica and i was immediately thrilled and 2 years later so so happy. My hair color has never been so rich and my hair health is amazing. She is the most talented authentic artistic colorist and stylist anywhere !

Rebecca W I had my hair colored and cut by Jessica Johnson and it exceeded my expectations. I have thick hair with stubborn grays. The color was so dimensional with the most flattering tone. The haircut was so thorough. With my thick hair, not many stylists take the time to make sure that each strand lays nicely. I would hands down recommend Jessica and I will definitely be back!

Ezgi Tunc It was my first time with Jessica Johnson and I couldn’t be happier. Being blonde, I always hesitate and want to make sure I find the right hair stylist. I just moved into the area. She took my hair from the two toned grown out root look, to perfectly blended blonde. See below for before and after pictures. Her prices are fair and she knows what she is doing!!! She did not damage my hair during the bleaching process which is always scary. Very happy with her work and highly recommend!

Mallory Giacopuzzi Been going to Vanessa for over a decade! I travel from LA just to see her. She listens to what I want and gives suggestions based on my hair texture, face shape and how well I maintain my color/cut. I don’t go as often as I should but the color she does lasts foreverrrrr (like well over a year) without looking brassy and always looks so well blended. Highly recommend her :)

EUCIANE LELIS I’ve been seeing Nessa for many years, and there’s a reason I’ve followed her from Santa Paula to Thousand Oaks—I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my hair. She is not only incredibly kind and attentive, but she truly listens to my needs and respects the integrity of my hair. Nessa takes a highly conservative approach, ensuring that my hair remains strong and healthy rather than chasing trends or taking unnecessary risks, even when I’m tempted to. She understands the unique structure of my hair and prioritizes its long-term strength and vitality. Her expertise, precision, and dedication are unmatched—no one does hair like she does.

Toni Musso I have been going to Vanessa at Salon 805 for years. I am a bi weekly color and weekly blow dry with Brazilians done twice a year. I lost my original hairdresser to a new career path which was also an 805 Salon hair stylist. After loosing her after being with her for over a decade I knew it would be nearly impossible to replace her. She knew the work that Vanessa was capable of and my difficult hair and highly recommended her. Wow what a true amazing blessing she is. She goes above and beyond pure perfection and excellence every time. The salon feels like the comfort of home and is welcoming, inviting, comfortable such a special boutique. I highly recommend not only Vanessa but the salon is fabulous. Toni Musso

Alexia Rangel I always have the most amazing experience with Vanessa! She is so kind and always does a fantastic job! She was able to get my hair the perfect blonde over time after coming to her with black box dyed hair.

Krista Scyphers Ive been super happy with Vanessa and Salon 805! I always have a relaxing experience and Vanessa is a pleasure to be around. I always love my color and cut, and its affordable for the services provided. I would recommend Vanessa and Salon 805 to anyone looking for a reliable salon in the TO/Camarillo area!

YJ D I’ve been a client for almost six or seven years, I dont remember anymore. From a client who goes in religiously every 6-8 weeks for a tightening or a new set of extensions, take it from me, this place is the best in quality of work and friendliness. Danielle the owner is present most of the time striking you with a huge smile when you walk in. The girls there are all true professionals and have been there since I started coming so it feels very comfortable going in. My go to hair dresser is Britney whos just GREAT in her work and also Nicole who is originally from Vegas and has this contagious bubbly uplifting spirit, shes fast, shes also good and overall a fun time. Its not often I take time to write a review specially a good one but this place deserves to be recognized. -Jenny D

Sarah Guerette Worst dye job in my whole life. I’ve been dying my hair for the past 10 years or so, so I have experience with hair dye both at home and at salons. Never have I had such a disappointing result. I am a college student who really doesn’t have a lot of money, so after a grueling year I wanted to do something for myself so I could feel good about my looks. I had been recommended this salon by a friend, whose hair always looks amazing so I was ready for some promising results. However both stylists that had done her hair don’t work there anymore so I was booked with Rose, who I was told was a great colorist. When I got there, Rose recommended against bleaching my hair to go copper, which I ignored, since I’ve always lightened it beforehand. She seemed annoyed at my request to bleach my hair anyway, annoyed about the time it would take. So I can only assume she rushed to compensate because I have no idea how else I could have such horrible results. She did the whole job in the sink, applying the bleach and the dye like shampoo, leaving the whole thing terribly uneven and lots of spots completely uncolored, just bleach yellow. On top of that, the cut afterwards was terribly uneven, leaving me with an awkward little yellow sideburn that will have to grow out. The good thing about this appointment is that at least, it’s only hair. The bad thing is that it set me back $270 for something I could’ve done much better by myself. I’ve never felt so ugly, but luckily I was able to pick up drugstore dye and fix it at home. Never going back here, and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.

Michelle Bekeza I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experience. Nicole is a flawless extension and color specialist. Ive had extensions for 13 years and done in 3 different states. states. So I know from experience how Excellent Nicoles work is and the quality of product is amazing. Ill be a client for life.

Debbie benton I went in a few months ago had 8 tape extensions added and totally took advantage of me because they charged me $50 for each one ( totally ripped me off ) 2 days later all 8 of them fell out when I showered went back the next day to put them back in! Nervous about them coming out again I went In 2 days later to get a wash,blow dry & style & again charged me $80 for the worst blowout my hair looked better before he touch my hair. I call and complained and was told that I could come back and given 2 free blowouts. But I wasn’t going to go back after 3 times of the worst experience ever ! I really don’t think they know what they’re doing there. Totally over charged since they were making up prices as they go ! There are so many other places that you can go to and prices are reasonable and the work is so much better. They’re just Kids working there not much experience at all as it shows in their work obviously! Pic 1st one is after my blowout 2nd pic is how it looked before I went in which was better before going there !
