Cuts & Colours

I rarely post on Unilocal unless I feel very strongly about my opinion/​rating.
I’ve been looking for a hairdresser for a while now. I felt that no hairdresser ever really listened to what I wanted (or was able to listen to what I needed and figure out a cut on their own). Lennie definitely listened to what I wanted! My hair was long (which I wanted) but was very flat. I wanted the dead ends trimmed off, some layers for volume, the length to somewhat stay the same and a cut that I didn’t have to do much with (just wash, dry and go). That’s exactly what I got! Love my layers and the fact that my hair just styles itself! I have an issue with my hair thinning at the top and the cut she gave me doesn’t make me as self conscious of that.
She did such a great job with my layers I’m even thinking of going back to maybe cut a little more length off because it seems like Lennie knows what goes with your face shape (for short cuts every other hairdresser just butchered my hair and it didn’t look right on me). I trust that Lennie would be able to give me any hairstyle and personalize it to me.
Definitely going back! The price was also a lot less than I expected which I love!

I am very picky when it comes to who touches my hair, but I needed a quick fix before a trip and Lennie was the only one available for a walk in. I showed her a picture of me from a couple years ago and told her what I wanted. She didn’t ask any questions and clearly knew what she was doing. She is amazing, talented, and made me feel beautiful again. Thank you Lennie for everything and I will definitely be back again soon.

Lennie knows what shes doing! Shes the best. Made me feel soo comfortable and she had people coming from all over the bay area coming to get their hair cone by the one and only LENNIE! My go to hair stylist from now on!

Glad to have reconnected with this Salon. Went to a different salon since I got back to the Bay Area in October, wasn’t happy with the service. Lennie did a great job on my hair and couldn’t be happier.

Thanks to the wonderful Unilocal reviews I found Nellie!
I have thick wavy hair, and with getting it thinned too many times by another salon and me trying to dye my own hair, my hair looked like straw! I called and asked if she could fix my hair. She explained what she thinks I needed and I was convinced. Nellie worked her magic on my first visit, with a super great cut and treatment. Yesterday was my second time, and my hair looks like me again! She is truly a magician with hair. Her color combination and blending hair cut does wonders! I’m so happy with my new beautiful hair, thank you Nellie!

I have received more compliments on my hair color in the past 2 days than I have in years. Nellie gave me EXACTLY what I asked for and really took her time. She is amazing!!!

This is my second time coming here to get my hair colored. I’m one very picky and particular customer but I’ve had my hair done by both Nellie and Lennie and couldn’t be happier. The results were better than expected. This time I had my hair done by Lennie. I showed her a picture of some ombré lowlights that were blonde and she talked me through the process and recommended a different idea. Bolayage highlights with some hidden streaks so that when my hair grows out it’ll look more subtle and natural which I loved. I also got a layered hair cut and some front bangs and couldn’t be happier. It took awhile but hey beauty is a process I guess. Lennie is amazing ! She really has a knack for turning your vision into a reality. .The highlights are subtle when my hair is down and are more noticeable when I have my hair up. Absolutely would recommend this place to anyone. Although bleaching my hair should have left it dead my hair feels even healthier and thicker. Cannot express how satisfied I am with the results.

Nellie is amazing! She’s been taking care of my hair since 2006 and I’ve never walked away with a bad hairstyle. She’s always on point!

I had a great experience at this salon! Nellie took great care of me! She talked me through everything that she was doing with my hair, listened to my concerns, and tweaked the things that I didn’t like. LOVED HER and my new hair-​do!

I made an appointment with Lennie after reading other positive reviews, and I was very pleased with the haircut she gave me. I had almost 5 inches cut off my hair, now styled into a long bob cut. Lennie was friendly and gave me a great cut. Only cost me $ 30 before tip! Be aware, they are CASH or check only, no cards accepted. I’ll definitely be back to this hidden gem of a salon.

Nancy has now opened her own salon called «Little star beauty shop» go check her out!

Nellie did an amazing job bringing funky color to my hair. She cared about the health of my hair and bleached it gently. The hair cut came out flawless. Nellie is very sweet and easy to talk to.

I have been going to see Nellie for the past 14 years now. She does a great job with a very good cut that lasts up to six weeks. I have referred to her a few of my friends and family. She tries to fit me into her schedule when I need a haircut at the last minute.
Her prices are very reasonable for haircuts for men and women as well.
She does run late on occasion and I have waited for her at least 15 minutes.

My girlfriend came here to get her hair done for graduation. Nellie is an artist with hair.

Go see Nellie! Best hair stylist in the Bay Area!
She’s a magician with hair! I travel all the way from Richmond to see her
She’s the only one I let touch my hair now!
Not only is she good with the scissors but she’s extremely nice and accommodating.
Edit: Looks like Nellie moved a couple streets down. I still go to her

The mark of a good cut is how it looks in 4 to 6 weeks. I have straight short hair and a bad cut will show irregular lines. My hair cuts with Nellie is always precise and clean. Her clients need to show up on time, call if they’re running late or lose their appointment if they will be later than 15 minutes.

This place was recommended to me by a good friend. Thought I’d check out the Unilocal reviews too and I’m glad to see positive reviews here.
My hairstylist moved so I’m glad I met Lennie. I asked her for an A-​line haircut and showed her some pictures… she gave me what I asked for. I’m happy with my new hairstyle. It feels light and looks healthy now. I’m happy to have found my new hairstylist thanks to my friend. Will definitely come back here in a few weeks to get another haircut or perhaps a color.

5 stars and two big thumbs up for Nancy! She is a wonderful hairstylist with an eye for the right cuts and colors that will flatter your face. I’ve been going to Nancy for years, and she has taken my hair from a short bob, to long curly locks, back to a cute and easy to manage pixie cut. She’s played color wizard on my hair from a beautiful deep brown, to playful purple and blue ombré, to honeyed curls for my wedding day. She is also really great at styling hair for special events, such as weddings, parties, and much more. Nancy is great! I would highly recommend her for a flattering, affordable haircut that you’ll love.

Five stars for Nancy! I have been going to her for the past two years now for my cut, color, and sometimes highlights. I have long thick, curly/​wavy hair that is hard to tame!
I have always gotten compliments on any cut I ever get. I have also referred many friends and curious strangers who have also received wonderful looks from Nancy.
She has worked wonders on many of my friend’s different hair types and lengths (Long asian hair, short fine hair, color corrections. You name it! They’ve all become loyal clients after giving her a shot). With that said, I have only referred ladies. From what I’ve heard, she can give great mens cuts too!
What can I say? Nancy is a diamond in the rough. You won’t be disappointed.

I’ve been getting my hair cut here for 11 years now! I love this place! Nellie has always been my stylist and she knows EXACTLY what I like and what works for the shape of my face.
I had to only give this place 4 stars because of scheduling issues. It sucks when a hairstylist can’t take her time with you because she is running late due to the person BEFORE you.

First off I’m going to say wow I am the first to write a review about this place. It has been around for many years.
The ladies that work here are sweet, kind and amazing. Always something they have up their sleeve and many services that they offer.
The lucky lady that has been doing my hair for over a year has been Nancy. The other two ladies that I always see that are there are Lennie and Nellie ((correct me if I’m wrong there.))
Anywho Nancy has been giving me wonder cuts and a style that other people can’t seem to not copy once they see it. I always am having to change and revamp my hair all of the time. And being at my younger age that is cool that someone else wants to have the same hair as me.
Getting to this place can be a challenge if you don’t know the area. For me the first time I was tricked and drove past it. Once you found this hidden gem you won’t be disappointed at all. ((The locals that live in the neighborhood have been going for years))
My favorite part is that it is really easy to find parking. It’s not like places I have been to in San Francisco and I was unable to find parking. Lots of space and free so no need to worry bout paying a meeter yay!
