Best Beauty Salons In San Francisco

“I got for the first time Misty Eyebrows on 2022, since then I get a half price touch up every year. I love my eyebrows, I get many compliments. Thank you Sasa.“

“Ana is the best—truly. Do yourself a favor and book with her. I came in after a haircut I wasn’t loving and was seriously considering chopping all my hair off. Ana kept me grounded and helped me make the right call. Now my hair isn’t too short, I have zero regrets, and it looks so much better. I can even wear it without styling—something I didn’t think was possible after my last cut.

What sets Ana apart is her deep understanding of hair—how it moves, how it sits, and how to bring out its best without forcing it. On top of all that, she’s just a wonderful human being. I won’t go anywhere else.“

“Jennifer did an amazing job. Her bright and friendly personality made the sugaring and threading lessees painful. I will definitely come back soon!“

“Since moving to the city almost 5 years ago, I’ve only trusted Sam as my esthetician! She is fast, thoughtful, precise, and thorough in her waxing service. She really cares about her clients and their skin’s wellbeing, and has actually taught me a lot about skin care for the areas I get waxed with her. I can truly say that thanks to Sam, my skin has never looked better. And to top it off, she’s so fun to talk to that getting a wax with her just feels like catching up with a close girlfriend! I’ll recommend Sam and Honey to anyone who needs a wax in SF.“

“Christina is incredible - I've received tons of compliments ranging from the quality of the lashes themselves to how natural my eyes look on my no-makeup days. She has helped me look and feel my best since day 1 (when I didn't even know what to ask for) and I'm so grateful to have found her. She's especially talented and a wonderful person.

I recommend her to everyone who asks and I highly recommend her here.“

“After reading rave reviews about Nicole I decided to book my first ever eyelash extension and Nicole did a phenomenal job! Her studio is calm and inviting, the chair you lay on while you’re getting your lashes is so comfortable, I almost fell asleep! Nicole is a gem; she is a perfectionist at what she does and uber talented. I can’t wait to see her in a few weeks for a full! Thank you so much Nicole!! I’m loving my lashes :)“

“Thank you so much! Such a wonderful job and my requests were handled with so much care and patience.“

“Principle is excellent but my review is specific to the wonderful Erin S.

I've been going to Erin S. for over a year now, and she has built up an incredible amount of trust with me through several haircuts and color sessions. She is extremely intuitive, always knowing exactly what I want even when I’m not sure how to articulate it. Whether it's a fresh cut or a new color, she consistently delivers results that are even better than I envisioned. Her attention to detail and ability to understand my style preferences make each visit a great experience. I highly recommend Erin S. for anyone looking for a stylist who listens, understands, and delivers every time.“

“I’ve been seeing Darleen at Aura Beauty for years, and I can honestly say she is a true gem in the beauty world. From the moment you step into the salon, she makes you feel at ease with her warm, welcoming demeanor. She listens carefully to what I want, offers expert advice, and always tailors each session to my specific needs. Whether it's waxing or any of her other beauty services, Darleen’s skill and attention to detail are unmatched. I always leave feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, and more confident.

What truly sets Darleen apart is her dedication to staying ahead of beauty trends and her consistent focus on quality. She uses only the best products, and it’s evident in the results I’ve seen over the years. I always feel completely at ease during every appointment, and I trust her expertise wholeheartedly. I can’t recommend Darleen enough—she’s a true professional and a wonderful person, and I’m so grateful to have found her. If you’re looking for someone who is not only talented but also genuinely cares about your beauty and well-being, Darleen is the one to see!“

“I’ve gone to Glow & Go many times now, Jacky and Stevie are both great! I’ve gotten spray tans done and also use their at home gradual / rub in tanner. I’ve done the classic & rapid both with contour and without and it always turns out excellent. Jacky & Stevie are knowledgeable and answered every question I had of which there were a decent few. I may have acquired a mild case of Tanorexia from it all them but lord knows it’s better than being pale.“

“You have your stylist. You want them to listen to you, to be kind and friendly and to give you a great haircut and advise you about your hair. I had a good stylist who left and I have long curly hair that I have been letting grow but I was ready for a layering and clean up. I spent about one month cycling through all the reviews and salon websites I could find in the city. Back in the day, I would call a popular salon like Di Pietro and have a conversation with the person answering the phone bc in a hood salon, they know the stylists and help you pick someone but nowadays I don't sense that most salons have the staff or ensure that someone knowledgeable is booking appts. so you are mostly on your own. For me, I found that many salons and stylists had mixed reviews or were outrageous $$$ and if the reviews are not consistently excellent why would you think to spend $$$ After some time, I found David Bui's name and salon and his reviews were all excellent and he also specialized in longer curly/wavy hair so I made an appt and I was so happy I did. I felt welcomed, he listened to me and what I wanted, he was super friendly polite professional and sincere in wanting to make me happy with my haircut. He cut away the poof and have the layers and trim I wanted. Most people want to have a go to stylist they trust and feel comfortable with which is not easy. Many salons have closed so ai think there are people looking for stylists to go to. The salon is in a really nice building, they have street parking right outside and I was able to find parking immediately. They even had some holiday snacks and libations. I left feeling happy with my cut and very comfortable and thats really important to me because I know what I want. David is delightful and did a great job. In case anyone else is out there looking for a new stylist especially if you have long or longer hair and have any kind of wave or curl. Heartfelt thanks to David!“

“Aric has been blending my grays every few months for a year, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. I’ve wanted to grow out my gray hair for YEARS, but no one has ever made the transition look good (blending gray hair takes serious skill). Aric is a genius. My curly hair is also impossible to cut, yet no one has ever done a better job. I don’t understand how one man possesses so much talent. Where have you been all my life? ?“

“Mina is an absolute master of her craft!! I have light brown/blonde brows and have always struggled finding the right shade of brow makeup to use until a friend recommend that check out Brow Club and I am forever grateful that I did! I've been seeing Mina for going on 3 years now and will never go anywhere else! She is super friendly, kind, patient, warm, and soooo creative and talented. She makes you feel super comfortable the whole time and I leave feeling like a million bucks every visit. I also love that the technique Mina uses allows for playing around with different color combos and styles, and the results look so natural every time. She is just the best & if you are thinking about getting nano brows, this is your club :) Thank you Mina!!“

“I have had my roots straightened since 2014. Since moving to SF, I was struggling to find somewhere to permanently straighten (Japanese straighten) my roots since so many places seemed to have such mixed reviews or were insanely out of my price range (5x more than what I use to pay back home!). I had about 7 months of regrowth. HK Mona did an amazing job for a reasonable price. My hair is healthy and easy to manage again. Thank you! ♥️“

“Come here for your haircuts! Super affordable spot with wonderful owners. Ken and Deborah are great people who will do you right. Definitely coming back.“

“Game changing! Came in after winning a gift certificate from our school auction and WOW! She took one look at my skin and recommended two different facial treatment options for different price points. 90 very relaxing minutes later my skin looks 10 years younger. I still can’t believe it! I haven’t seen my skin so vibrant since pre-kids! I highly recommend their service and will be back!“

“Very satisfied with service. Came in for a tattoo touch up and it was well done. Professional and the vibe was great! Would recommend“

“Cheyenne is so talented. I’m glad I found him after moving to the city. I’ve been to him about four times now and he always delivers exactly what I want. He’s always down to yap and his space is gorgeous.“

“Incredible service. I explained what was going on with my brows and Lana was patient, listened intently, and talked me through her approach as she went to work. She provided thoughtful recommendations for how to maintain my desired look and tips for upkeep at home. When I inquired about another potential service, she politely advised against it given what she'd learned about brow-needs --- this is such a "green flag" to me!! If I didn't already trust her completely, professionally suggesting a client does not proceed with another (expensive!) treatment secured my faith in her. She leads with her client's best interest and her expertise shows!!! I will absolutely be back to see Lana.“

“Jazz is the BEST! I am so hooked on the lash lifts and eyebrow tints, and her prices are so great for the level of service she provides. The studio is clean, cozy and Jazz is so enjoyable to hang with. She is super knowledgeable about products and is gentle, so I always feel very safe with her despite having sensitive skin
100/10 for Jazz Ethetics!“

“I was very pleased with her work on my head and my daughters. Her place is very peaceful. This is the place to go to.“

“I've been getting my facials, eye lash perms (lifts) and brow waxing for 5 years now. I only use Lora because of Kim & Michelle. The Mystiq Iluminating Polishers clears my pores. The ambiance is always comfortable, the art brings personality. Recommend your friends, everyone needs a SPA DAY.“

“In love with my new set of Lashify lashes & crystal tooth gem that Julia provided today at EstyJewels! Both services were quick, painless, and have me feeling like a million bucks- definitely browse her menu and treat yourself to one of many services available when you get the chance. You won’t be disappointed!“

“Long thick curly Puerto Rican hair: Keeping length cut with lots of layers and blowout. Only 45 minutes. Melissa is fast, friendly and welcoming. I loved the vibe reggaeton videos playing. Great prices so tip big! She's worth it!“

“This was a most wonderful experience! Warm energy, wonderful aesthetician skills and just a superb space to disconnect, relax and unwind. Thank you so very much, M!“
