This is my third time booking and appointment for a full-on bleach, coloring, and haircut. Sho custom blends the colors he uses on my hair and the end result impresses me every time. He's also courteous and fun to chat with. I always come in with a bunch of questions on what would look good, and he's always right on how colors will turn out on my hair.

Kerrin, the owner, did a fabulous job giving me a haircut! It was my first haircut since last July. She listened to exactly what I wanted and made me feel like $1M. Couldn't be happier and I'm glad I found a new hairdresser I can trust :)

I found this salon through google maps. I had a trim haircut and toning. The place is clean and cute. Sho is kind, friendly, and polite. He even recommended some good food places to try and it did not disappoint! I wish I could bring him to Illinois. I would love to have him do my hair again when I visit SF.

Ashley is amazing. First session with her. We spent time talking about my hair goals and what I wanted out of the session. Even for a tone- she spent an incredible amount of time paying attention to the details of my needs and my hair and what it could do. Can't wait to see her again.

Sho is a great stylist for guys as well as girls. He really cuts my hair so that it best fits the shape of my head specifically. Nothing is out of place after his haircuts.

Sho is a talented and very gentle artist who will take your vision for what you want your hair to look like and take it to the next level. He is a great colorist AND gives the best haircuts. I almost don't want to recommend his studio so I can keep it to myself =)

I am picky when it comes to my hair and after my first appointment with Wendy, I am extremely happy with the haircut. Wendy did a fabulous job and I will definitely be back. She’s very personable and easy to talk to.

Women's Haircut FAQs
There are many variations of women’s haircut, but they’re based around five main types. These are: the blunt cut (below the shoulders and all one length), the layered cut (lengths of hair cut up at an angle creating a neatly layered effect at slightly varied lengths), the bob (above the shoulder, blunt or layered), the shag (extremely layered often with a razor), and the pixie cut (short, cut above the nape of the neck).
Word of mouth referrals are always good, but if you don’t have anyone who can recommend a good women’s hair stylist, go online and do your research. Look at verified reviews, qualification levels, and their portfolio (their social accounts are likely to show some of their best-loved cuts).
A women’s haircut begins with a consultation, followed by a wash, cut, and style. The consultation is important: it’s your opportunity to tell your stylist exactly what you want and how much time, realistically, you have to style your hair each morning. They may make suggestions based on what they think is possible for your hair type and what you’ve told them before progressing. When you’re happy with what they’re going to do, your hair will be washed, conditioned, cut and finished with either a rough-dry or blow dry to really show off your new style.
To maintain the style, length, and condition of your hair, try to go in for a maintenance haircut once every 6-8 weeks.
Having your hair cut should cost around $100.
The more information you can give your stylist about your hair goals, the more likely you are to leave the salon with a style you’re happy with. You’ll need to do this right at the start of your appointment. It’s a good idea to show them an image of the type of style you like, and explain what you do and don’t like about it. You should also tell them how much time you have in the morning to style your hair. Your stylist may well share their own advice for your cut. Listen, because if anyone knows what works for which hair type, face shape, and lifestyle, it’s an experienced hair stylist.
