Marilyn’s Salon

When I saw someone in Placerville with the awesome short haircut I wished I had, I asked where she got it done. 5 years later, Hannah at Marilyn’s is still cutting and coloring my hair. At other salons, I’d always had trouble with my blonde highlights coming out red, but not here. But let’s be real – the most important thing when spending 2 hours with someone is that it’s a pleasant experience with easy conversation where you feel like you are their only customer! Hannah’s the real deal.

Hannah does a great job of cutting my curly hair! It’s so hard to find someone that can manage a good cut for us curly-​girls and Hannah does it every time! She has been coloring and cutting my hair for many years and I’ve always been so happy. Love the color — love the cut!
They are now located on main street in a very classy salon. I love going to Marilyn’s!

Hannah is a wonderful stylist. In the year I’ve gone to her every cut and highlight has been awesome! After I left the salon yesterday I had several people compliment me on the highlights and ask for a referral. Hannah is thoughtful in her approach to understand her clients needs and gives outstanding customer service. She is a real gem. Marilyn’s Salon is cozy with a touch of elegance in a lovely courtyard setting. Warm and friendly staff who always make you feel welcome. Many thanks!

This was one of the best hair cuts I’ve ever had. Hannah really knows what she’s doing! Nice girl, excellent skills. Lovely salon, friendly service, the shampoo was very enjoyable. From making an appt to paying my bill, every moment was delightful! Every one on staff is friendly, happy and genuinely glad you are there. Great location tucked away in a beautiful courtyard on Main st. My hair has never looked better, so I am thrilled!!!

Love this charming salon, and the ladies who work here are fantastic! It’s nestled in an adorable brick courtyard behind the Cary House that speaks «Placerville Charm». There is parking right behind the building for easy access. The salon is chic and new inside where I see Hannah.
Hannah is professional, friendly, fair priced and up to date on the latest trends. She does GREAT color, and also repairs other stylists mistakes via color correction at a fair price. She will be honest– and has integrity. This is so crucial to a potential client. Whereas some stylists will do whatever a client asks for… regardless of the damaging outcome, Hannah will take the time to explain why one option may be an unwise choice for someone (i.e.: if they had hair that was damaged previous to meeting Hannah) but also offer an alternate way to give a great look– even if it means a lesser fee to herself! She will always put her clients hair and its health (and great look) first.
Hannah does beautiful extensions too, that match perfectly, and cause no damage. She studied and compared many products before deciding the kind she would be willing to work with, so that her clients could experience the fun of «instant new lengths» without harming their own hair that has to stay long past the extensions. I loved and wore mine for over a year!
In the years I have been a client of Hannah, I have noticed she has many, many of the same clients visit her, month after month and year after year. That alone should speak volumes as to her skills. Keeping so many people happy and looking great– at all of their repeat appointments, Hannah should get a sky full of stars in any review. I highly recommend Hannah, and Marilyn’s Salon!

Extremely upset!
Had Hannah do my hair in June 2015. Hair was awesome, cut and color. Went in Sept. To have my roots touched up and a cut. I got home to realize that the cut was in uneven and the demarcation line was not fixed. I originally had it done blond with dark highlights. When she touched it up she did it brown with blond highlights. Result I still had a demarcation line. The next day I had her try to fix the cut. Still not what I wanted. She said she would fix the color. I was afraid it would over process my hair. Said we could do it in Oct.
I went in at 8:30 this morning. For her not to take responsibility for her actions repeatedly. I said I just want it fixed. Didn’t want it done for free or discounted. JUST WANTED IT FIXED! She was going to just do the roots again! Well it’s been so long that the overall color was off due to sun and fade. Blond turned brassy. I said I wanted it all fixed. She kept insisting that she did my hair right and all I needed was the roots done. Because she kept on about her doing my roots right the first touch up, I was upset. But said just fix it. Whatever. At that point she said that she thinks it would be best that she not do it. After we had discussed it over the phone before the appointment. She made the appointment for 8:30 am and I live quite a distance away and I’m in a time crunch. I became really angry.
I WILL not recommend her or the salon to anyone who wants to leave there looking good or have good customer service. Which also is lacking!
I’M SO DONE! The other lady in the salon that works there had no interest to calm the situation or make it right!

Marilyn’s salon is by far the best salon I have ever been too! The atmosphere and the people who work there are especially what makes this salon my choice:) I love how cute and tidy the salon is. My favorite is Hannah she always makes me feel very welcome and always has a happy face on:) We even carry on some of the best conversations! I would highly recommend this salon and Hannah to anybody near or far! She is well worth the drive!

Marilyn is a legend among local professional women and men, for her amazing attention to detail, especially color. She only books one person at a time, and gives you her full attention. She is a refined, beautiful person, with a compassionate heart. Although it may take several weeks to wait for an appointment, it is well worth it. If your color is flat or dowdy, Marilyn will recreate it to bring out the best in you. There is no one better for color. This salon experience is small, elegant, restful, and worth your time and effort. Parking available in the back, in a city lot. Worth the drive. Downtown Placerville, in a cute courtyard, near good restaurants too.

Love this salon! Marilyn does my mom’s hair and her daughter Erica used to do my hair for Homecomings and Prom. Girls if you’re looking for a place to get a nice hairdue for a special occasion, this is the place to go! Erica always made sure my hair stayed the whole night which I couldn’t thank her enough. A beautiful trendy salon.

Beautiful Salon, very elegant and charming. Cierria colored and cut my hair and did a amazing job, I still get comments on how good it looks. She help me choose color and cut my hair how I wanted it done, she was patient and made sure I was happy with the finished result. She offered me wine, hot chocolate, coffee or tea, I felt very pampered. Will go back, finally I have a hair dresser I can trust and am happy with. Very good prices too.
