Autumn is a premier colorist. She does amazing work --it's all she does and she does it brilliantly--designing color to fit with your skin and eyes. She will ever so gently deter you from making horrible mistakes and is great at correcting color. My hair looks fabuloso after she does her magic--and the way she balances highlights and lowlights makes my thin hair look fuller. She is an unsung talent on the hair scene.
Pros: Great Color
Cons: High stylist turnover

I visited Sublime Salon for the first time in '08. I had my haircut done by Katie and color by Gia.
My first impression was immediately Katie's warm and friendly attitude. She thoughtfully asked me what kind of haircut I was looking for. I showed her a couple of magazine pages that I liked and we discussed the options and she made her recommendation. She had a very confident demeanor and her presence was very informative. She explained the pros and cons of my decision and I have been very happy with the results I got.
I am returning to the salon soon and I can't wait to see what she has planed for me this time!

Bruno Compin has been cutting my hair at Festoon for 6 years now, ever since I walked in for a $35 apprentice stylist haircut in 5th grade. Though I now pay him a little more, he's NEVER gone wrong with my hair; I don't really ask him for anything specific anymore, because I KNOW that he's going to make an amazing decision and cut my hair however it looks best.
I had gotten highlights once in 7th grade from him (a time at which I had become the anti-Britney Spears with my subtle yet really age-appropriate color choice), but I recently asked him to give me a full color. Though my dye-virgin hair came out REALLY light, the color mix Bruno picked looks AMAZING. I've gotten stopped at least a dozen times in the past two weeks by people asking me where I've gotten my hair done.
Bruno is amazing! My highest recommendations.
My best friend also gets her pixie cuts from Misha, and recommends her as well. She rocks it well.
Pros: Amazing cut and color
Cons: Sometimes hard to book

A great friend and I were in the San Francisco area this past weekend and i wanted to surprise her with a massage. I know you always get what you pay for but $140-$180 per person, which is what i was finding in the main part of the city, was a little pricey for me. I did research and found Zensasian so i called to see what they offered. The great experience started with the friendly voice that answered the phone. She informed me of the deals they were having and told me with the couples massage that they would be able to serve us champagne afterwards. I was sold and WOW!!! did the reasearch pay off. The establishment itself is quaint and cozy with only a few massage rooms but the decor is great and the atmosphere is very soothing. I have received many massages but this one was by far one of the top 3 i have ever had. Corrine has the hands of an angel and she worked in every second of what we paid for. From head to toe, she worked on problem areas i specified as well as relieved a headache that i had come in with. My friend LOVED her experience as well with John and said she would definitely go back. Afterwards they brought us champagne and let us relax until we were ready to leave. Both extremely friendly, very social and overall provided an exceptional experience. If you don't mind driving a bit away from the city and don't need it to be a posh and stuffy spa then i would highly reccomend Zensasian to anyone who wants an amazing massage with an even better guest experience.
Pros: Amazing Massage, Friendly Staff, Caters to your needs
Cons: Parking is a little hard to find but nothing that a quick drive around the block won't fix

It was such a great experience. He fixed the brassy color I had in my hair and really didn't like. I felt comfortable because he knew what he was doing. It was great. It was a relaxing experience. I love the way it turned out! I needed my hair color fixed and he did it perfectly! What more could I ask for :)
Pros: He definatly knew what he was doing.

I have been getting a massage at this place about every other week, since 2007! It's such a wounderful and relaxing place, especially after a huge workout.
Awesome massage, reasonable price, friendly staff, peaceful and clean. They serve drinks, juices, mild munchies and always soothing music to immediately start soothing my frown lines. Every time after my massage, I feels like a new energetic person.
Highly recommend this such excellent spa for everyone.

I'm a quality consious spa goer. I don't have really deep pockets so I want to be guaranteed a great experience. Refresh delivers! I've been here several times for facials and massage and it is one of my favorite spas in San Francisco. I've always had great treatments here and the staff are friendly and helpful. You can pay almost twice as much at some other spas, and not be treated so well! There's parking next door as well (they validate) so that saves a few dollars as well.
If you go, plan on spending extra time to enjoy the steam room beforehand.

I live in Boston and visited Kamalaspa in February during a vacation. I was feeling really stressed out about going - was worried about getting a high quality cut & color and also about feeling welcome/relaxed in the environment. Lisa did my color first and I could not have been more pleased. I had serious gray roots to cover and also wanted highlights. She really listened to my requests and asked questions to make sure we were in synch. She took a great deal of time and care with my highlights. I was thrilled that she took so much time and was so dedicated to the end result. She was also very kind and welcoming and I felt like my experience was genuinely important to her. Both the base color and the highlights were the best I've ever had. I have never had so many compliments, it could not have been a better experience. I then moved on to my cut with Cary and he was also a delight. He made me feel very comfortable and also took a great deal of time and care to make sure he understood what I wanted. I have never experience a cut with such attention to detail. He has a very warm and caring manner and he made me feel very comfortable. He is truly an artist but didn't make me feel like I was just an art project. If I could afford it, I would fly back to SF to see Cary and Lisa every time. I'll have to settle for annual vacation visits. I would strongly recommend them to anyone coming in from out of town who wants a special look to commemorate their trip and also wants to be treated like visiting royalty. Thank you Lisa and Cary.
Pros: Beautiful environment, caring manner of team
Cons: None

I was expecting a lot considering these reviews, and Frankee surpassed my high hopes. I was feeling bored with my cut and bleached out with my blonde, so I told her that I wanted something cute and sassy for my bob. This was my first appointment but I liked her website and her vibe when I met her so I felt I could trust her with that direction. She nailed it. My color is awesome - still blonde but with depth due to her highlights (she used a ton of foils - totally detailed and caring). And the cut is shorter and a-line, much cuter and sassier than anything I've had for a while. The atmosphere was cool but comfortable. I was even offered a homemade choc chip cookie and something yummy to drink. Frankee was easy to talk with, even interesting and engaging. Overall a great experience. Most importantly, my hair looks awesome. I will be back!
Pros: fab cut & color, caring and detailed, reasonably priced, easy parking on divis

I moved to SF from Indiana thinking it would have been easy to find a good stylist, but was seriously mislead and was seemingly heading down all the darkest alleys in the city or something like that looking to cop a good haircut. It took me several salons, stylists and near death experiences ?til I stumbled across Shab on a whim while remembering a tip on a salon in the Castro from my roommate. The receptionist said Shab had an opening, so I rolled the dice and rolled 7, 11, and the rest is history. I went away with easily the best service and haircut I have had in the two years since I have been here?not to mention she is stunning and super personable, which is always a plus. I have since followed her to Willow and have every attention on following her all down the line when I need a fix. She always keeps me looking like rock n' roll royalty. She truly rocks and rolls and will help give your hair the swagger it needs. Aside from my top notch experience with Shab, the rest of the Willow staff also seemed exceptional. The salon was super rad, clean, had great products, and even gives you complimentary teas in enough variety to suite every need. So check out Shab and Willow for sure, just make sure to tip her well damn it because she will totally deserve it
