Joey Stevenson 6609 Flora Street, Oakland, CA 94621

"Joey offers a safe and welcoming space for all! On top of that Joey has a real talent for cutting hair. I believe that is rooted in both experience and truly getting to know the needs of the client. Joey is not only spot on in giving you the hair cut you came for, but is also able to tailor your experience to your specific sensory and accessibility needs, thus making you feel safe and comfortable in the chair. I would highly recommend Joey if you are a gender non conforming person like me! I absolutely love my hair cut and will be going back soon!"

"Joey is incredible — a true hair ariste! She has excellent communication about each cut and how it will fall/turn out; gives good instructions that are easy to follow and reproduce for sustainably great hair; has worked with me to figure out a regular cut and maintenance routine that vastly extends the length of time I can go between cuts; has a cozy and comfortable space, with thoughtful details and amenities to make you feel at home; and best of all, she is fun and easy to spend my appointments with. I love my hair every time she cuts it. So glad I found someone I could trust so wholeheartedly to take my hair from chest length to a first-time pixie cut!"

"I’ve been going to Joey for almost a year now, and I am SO glad I found her! She’s the first stylist I have ever trusted 100% with my hair: not only is her work on curly hair fantastic, she is also very attentive to clients’ needs regarding gender-affirming/ gender-non-conforming hair styles. Plus she is a simply wonderful person who I look forward to seeing every appointment. I truly cannot recommend Joey highly enough :)"

"I just had my second visit for a curly haircut. Joey is the first hairdresser that I've been to who specializes in curly hair, and I can't believe it took me so long to do this! She really knows her stuff, and I've never had cuts that are this easy and look this good, whether I'm making an effort or not. I can't recommend going to see Joey enough. She's great at asking what you're going for, really hears and understands what you want (or helping you figure this out if you're not sure), and is so thoughtful and wonderful to spend any amount of time with otherwise. Go see Joey!!"

"Joey is awesome! When I googled "queer friendly scent-sensitive accessible curly haircut," I was not expecting to get all my wishes fulfilled! Enter Joey who is an awesome queer small business owner who can tailor her home salon for my chemical fragrance sensitivities! And she is a curly hair expert! I moved to Sacramento last year and I still make the trip to Oakland 1-2/yr for my haircut. Highly recommend."
