She has the magic touch naturally. Monica is also super sweet and humble and really gets to know her clients. No wonder her cliental is so faithful! :) Do yourself the favor and go see her the next time you need your hair done. I promise you will not leave disappointed. Her number is 510−375−8322 to book an appointment.

I love their work. Would give 5 stars but they have horrible customer service. I called Z&E & never answered. They would say they’re open & when I get there there’s no one there. Same with other people renting this salon. My sister just went to for a consultation & the hair stylist wasn’t even there.

This review is for Lisa! She does the best eyelashes ever! Not only that it’s fuller, longer and lighter, it literally last longer then any other place I have been too. I’ve done it other places before and a lot of my lashes fell off and the glue they used irritated my skin. That will not happen with Lisa because she spend the time and money into her products for amazing results. I never thought getting lashes could make my morning routine so much easier but it does. My eyes look so much more awake with lashes. Thanks Lisa for making me an addict!

Great salon to get your hair done! Very clean and well decorated. Book an appointment today with Mariana Veas. She’s my stylist and I love her She can do almost any request and is very flexible with times. Call now 1(650)921−5036.

Marianna, the owner of the Vivacious hair studio, located in Sola salon, on the El Camino in San Mateo, had been doing my hair for nearly 10 years, first at Ulta in San Mateo and now in her own «mini» studio. The concept of the Sola salon is basically one big storefront, with 20+ mini studios inside, each rented to a stylist who then can personalize his/​her «space». I am able to get more personalized attention from Marianna now that other stylists or clients aren’t jockeying for space or product. Marianna is in charge of her own schedule and able to accommodate me on a Sunday afternoon if she wants to. Marianna will go out of her way to get the right shade of purple for my highlights. She knows what needs to be done to my hair before I say anything, and when she says she needs to cut 1″ off, it’s really an 1″. My hair gets many complements, even though I’m over 40 and have a headful of purple highlights.
The studio is very cozy and comfortable. It is nice that you don’t have to listen to 10 other conversations at the same time –my appointment is my time. Looking forward to many more years of good hair from Marianna.

I have the best stylist-​Mariana Vega
Vivacious hair salon studio 20 here. 650−921−5036
She picks perfect color for my skin and perfect style for my face. Love her– flexible schedule– the salons are so well kept up too.

Called twice on 2 different numbers and call never returned.
Poor customer service. And since there is no live person to help you, what other option do you have.
Called the number on the business card that was posted in the lobby area.

I absolutly LOVE these Salons. I get a facial by Bridgette then my hair done after… they now have a manicurist so after my hair and facial I got a mani pedi also. Its basically a one stop shop. I heard they have a spray tan salon too, never tried it but im sure its amazing. My favorite salons in Sola are The Face and Body Studio and Hair By Dinna. Bridgette is absolutly amazing and very well educated about skin care. I used to see her even before Sola Salon opened up and I followed her here. She is just that good. Hair by Dinna, Well Dinna is simply AMAZING!!! She is known for her blowouts and extensions, but she does ALL hair types and she has so many years of experience that she literally, if anything she has fixed my hair when I tried another Salon one time because I liked the fact they carried Kerastase. i learned my lesson. You have to at least try her blowouts and ween yourself off of you hairstylist now! SHE IS THE BEST! Go to Sola and window shop you cant not get something done here ;)

This review is for Camila R.
Camila, you’re an amazing hairstylist!
This is my second time getting my hair styled by Camila. First time was for my engagement photography session and the second one is for my church wedding. She just know how to work with your hair and simply make you look stunning. I received tons of compliments with my hair. On top of that, she’s so sweet and fun to work with.
Thank you Camila!

I treated my daughter to a day of fun… hair cuts & coloring, shopping. We went to visit Drea. We had a blast! And we got a great hair cut. I have to say that going to see Drea is like spending time with one of my sisters that does an awesome job with your hair. Almost can’t wait to go back. Thanks again girl.

Love it here. I LOVE it here. I REALLY LOVE IT HERE!
My stylist is in the salon, and I was just so giddy about the entire concept when I first visited here! It’s basically a ONE STOP SHOP for all your beauty needs. You can find someone to do your hair, nails, waxing, eyebrows, massages, facials… everything!
I like how convenient it is for the clients and it seems like the stylists have an intimate space to initiate business.
There are business cards at the entrance (maps, too!) and nice big, CLEAN restrooms (I just used the women’s restroom) for clients to use.
If you’re looking for a new stylist, massage therapist, or waxing guru, be sure to stop by Sola Salon to find your new guy or gal.

if you need a haircut and don’t know where to go, try Sola Salons. iI’s a modern, high end spot with lots of different hair stylists, and while most are already established businesses with their own book of business, many accept walk ins, which is perfect for people like me who may not always plan ahead. The studios are all individual and each has it’s own entrance/​suite number. There’s also a map when you walk in to help you navigate. The place is pretty clean and if you want to try a new look or stylist, there’s one right next door to your current place so it makes it easier to find a new stylist. I came here a few months ago and will be back. I did hear though that rent is expensive so expect haircuts to be $ 40+ so they can cover their rent and live as well.

I love love love it here! This is the place to be for any aspiring stylist, or esthetician. It’s a great way to work for yourself without all of the stress and overhead of owning or renting an entire building! I loved the concept of renting my own private studio from the moment I stepped in the door, and deciding to go out on my own has been the best decision I’ve ever made. I’m free to live the life I love, and I’m able to work ANYTIME I want to. The salon itself is kept very clean, and the managers are always willing to help in anyway possible.
If you’re a stylist and tired of the drama of working at other salons, but love what you do, Sola is the place for you!

So I have to let everyone know that Sola Salon Studios is an amazing place to own your business. I have been here, at Solas almost 1year and each month it gets better and better. I have been in the industry for 26 years have owned my own salon for 17 years, stood behind a chair for ²¹⁄₂ and I have come home to Solas. You definitely must come down and check it out. Its a new concept in our industry, gives us the Artist the ability to have our own environment, my clients love my studio, Love the one on one time with me, they even love how you decorate your own studio. Its really a wonderful feeling coming to your studio and everything is were you left it when you went home. Also everything is included in your rent water, trash, electricity and our on site manager keeps surrounding area spotless. One more thing we don“t have to worry about the bathrooms, toilet paper, hand towels, hand soaps its all here .
Step in and just start doing Hair.
