"I went to Vee and got the works! Haircut, bangs, lightening, bright colour! It was a lovely experience to spend time in Vee's chair. She was personable, fun to talk to, laugh with and of course, she did a BEAUTIFUL job on my hair. I always struggle with how stlyists cut my hair, particularely my bangs but I absolutely loved how Vee did it. She took the time to ask what I was looking for and read between the lines of what I didnt have the words to describe. The space is welcoming, cozy, and queer! 1000/10 would recommend to anyone looking for a new look, simple haircut or just spend some time getting pampered. :)"

"I had the pleasure of getting my hair done by V for years, and I must say that she is an exceptional hairdresser. Her attention to detail and precision are truly impressive, and she always strives for perfection. Not only is she great at her job, but she is also a creative and fun person to talk to. V took the time to listen to my ideas and preferences, and she provided great suggestions and advice to help me achieve the look I was going for. The end result was fantastic, and I always left her chair feeling more confident and happy with my hair. I would highly recommend V to anyone who is looking for a talented and friendly hairdresser!"

"I had an amazing haircut and style from Vee. She is extremely talented and sweet. She gave me beautiful curtain bangs and and gave me an incredible blowout. She really took her time to teach me how to style my new bangs. I don’t think I’ve ever had an experience like the one I had at Be Here salon, Vee actually really listened to me and what I wanted my hair to look like. I would 100% recommend her to my family and friends."

"I’ve been in the Bay Area for about a year. Vee is the first stylist I’ve found who actually listens to what I want and works with me to accomplish it. From hair coloring to keratin treatments to haircuts and styling, my experience is always a 10/10. So happy I found her."

"I’ve been going to Vee for about a year and love her! She’s great. She listens to what I want. I have short curly hair and she cuts it really well with precision, and I think it looks really good when I leave!"
