"With all the great previous reviews I had very high hopes for this salon. Unfortunately, it didn't work for me. I got a hair cut and color. Neither turned out great, and especially sad about the color because it's so hard to fix. I specifically asked for a semi permanent color so that it washes out gradually instead of leaving a color line as the it grows. I usually color at home (for ~$10, instead of the $160), but since doing a good coverage on my own is hard I figured a salon color would be better. The coverage was done well, but the color is not semi permanent. I have a very visible color line, and a brassy (red'ish) look instead of the cool brown I thought I was getting when selected the shade. Red shades especially drive me nuts, because I look like an old lady with colored hair. Nothing natural about it and it doesn't look good on my skin tone. As for haircut I wanted to get a bob with an angle, but it came up with just a plain straight bob. No angle. It looked nice at the salon, because the stylist used an iron (on my already pretty straight hair), but as soon as I washed it any sign of an angle is gone. I don't use (and wouldn't want to use) an iron on a daily basis not to damage hair with heat, but now will have to go and get a new hair cut to fix that."

"Michiaki is Amazing! My hair was down to my waist with lots of split ends. I requested a cut that took care of the damaged ends while still leaving some length and he did just that and more! He gave me a deep treatment which made my hair so silky and smooth, added some subtle layers, and completely transformed my hair! Michiaki is so professional and everyone at the salon is friendly and welcoming. Thank you Hair Caffe, for keeping my hair beautiful and healthy all these years!"

"My recent visit to Keisuke for a highlight turn in to amazing hair color and cut was nothing short of exceptional! Keisuke's expertise shone through as he provided insightful advice tailored to my hair condition, ensuring a delicate color that seamlessly matched my existing highlights. The result was not just a hair color but a work of art. The haircut, executed with precision, is something I'm absolutely loving – it perfectly complements the color and enhances my overall look. Keisuke's skills, coupled with a keen understanding of individual needs, make for an outstanding experience. If you're seeking a masterful touch for your hair, look no further than Keisuke!"

"So happy with my hair! Marcy gave me a consult and we decided to do an airwave perm based on my hair type and the photos that I showed. It turned out great! The overall service was also 5-star. Pricey but worth it to have a hair stylist you can trust!"

"I’ve been covering my grays with Kenji who found the perfect color for my hair and recently tried Foilyage with him to shake things up! (I haven’t had highlights or lighter colored hair in almost 16 years! He’s the best hair stylist I’ve found across SF, Seattle, NY and Austin. Always excellent cuts and color, and his availability is limited for a reason. He’s the best! Thank you Kenji!!"
