Salon B

B Impressed - Very Knowledgeable, Creative, and the Best Customer Service

by 10doodlebug at Citysearch

I was very impressed with Salon B. First of all I love their website, it was clean, sleek and refreshing and not overdone. That's I found them by searching on the web. I love the way it introduced everyones talents and strengths. I had made an appointment for my daughter's Senior ball for a Glamour style with Avery. She just loved his personality and his ideas. Now she wants to go back and have him cut and be more creative with her hair. She also had Amanda do a makeup application and was so happy with the results. Thanks Amanda she looked beautiful. I also want to add that while I was waiting for my daughter I got really inspired to do my hair also by listening to everyone around me and talking to Emiko at the customer desk I felt really comfortable. Since I have been scared to get my hair done by someone again after I lost my hair stylist that I had for over 10 years. I went and tried someone and was not completly happy, it was hard to try to trust someone again. But I really felt comfortable and got a really good feeling as I was siiting there listening. So I jumped in, They recommended someone for me and got me in even when they were busy. My gals name was Malerie. What a sweet upbeat personality, easy to talk to. She recommended some color correction for me since I went to box hair dye. I no Yuk. Well anyways she was great, even when she had other appointments she was very sweet to check on me while her assistant helped. She did not have time for a cut but the owner Scot did and was talking to me and I liked his ideas and told him lets do it. Very nice itellegent man, you can tell he liked what he does and is so very knowledgable about his proffession. I am very satisfied and am definitly going back to Salon B and I recommend anyone reading this to try them you will not be disappointed.

Great value, great haircut!

I happen to come upon this place that offers a barber cut for guys like me who wanted to get a salon quality haircut without having to pay the salon price. I have yet to be disappointed. I recommend Amy or Mya if you want a styled or smooth looking haircut-for sure!

• Pros: price for quality cut
• Cons: none

What a breath of fresh air!

I have to admit, I'm one of those people who is willing to try anything once. To me, hair is an adventure. I have spent a lot of time and money over the years on that adventure. I've had many looks I liked, many I didn't. Mostly, though, I've just never known what to do with it.

When Amy suggested I come by the salon, I wasn't sure what to expect. I never know how hip and trendy a salon is going to try to be, versus classic and fabulous. While I'm willing to be brave most of the time, it would be difficult to explain to my boss what I was thinking when I "went there" with my hair this time around. But like I said, I'm willing to try anything once, so I gave it a shot.

Salon b is a fantastic place. I felt at home in the salon as soon as I go there. Everyone is friendly, courteous, attentive and you can tell that they LOVE their jobs. I couldn't wait to see what they could do!

Amy is the color goddess. She corrected my box-black mess with very little fuss, and only a minor scolding. ;) Both the color and cut I received were with little to no prompting from myself. They turned out to be exactly what I needed! Talk about knowing your stuff! To be able to look at me, see my personality and create the perfect hair style and color combo for me has got to be award winning talent!

I walked in with an open mind and walked out with the best cut and color I've ever had! I'd trust my head to Salon b ANY DAY!

• Pros: professional, talented artists

Amy Rocks!!!

by Twin Mommy at Citysearch

I've gone to about every top salon in San Francisco and paid hundreds for hair cuts and color to find that perfect stylist. Little did I know she was hiding in Sacramento. Since I live between San Francisco and Sacramento and have been disappointed in all the hype over SF stylists, I thought I would research stylists in the Sacramento area. I read all the reviews on City Search and decided I would try Amy. Boy am I glad that I did. She actually listened to what I was saying and gave me the cut I've been asking others for, for over a year. I decided to stay conservative with my color, but looking forward to a big change the next time I see Amy.

I also want to express how amazing the entire staff is, starting with Emiko. She fit me in and worked with my schedule. The customer service I received was more than I could have ever asked. While I was there I met one of the owners Scot, who was extremely personable.

I can't say enough positive things about the salon and Amy. For those of you looking for a new stylist, you will not be disappointed by making an appointment!

• Pros: Amazing customer service, cut, color, salon stmosphere, etc.
• Cons: None that I know of.

Amy is the hair goddess!!!!

by blondbomshell at Citysearch

I have been going to a popular salon downtown for over two years and was never completely satisfied with my cut and color. However, I did what a lot of us do.....I became comfortable with my hair stylist and did not want to step outside the box. Heck, we all get in a rut sometimes and it takes an act of God to get you out. I did not want to even attempt to find a new stylist, because there are so many salons in Sactown. I finally came to the conclusion that my hair could go on being average forever or I could take the leap of faith. I am so happy I finally took the chance and trusted Salon B and Amy. My hair color is awesome and Amy made sense out of the mess of a haircut my ex stylist made. All I can say is thank you for making me love my hair again!

• Pros: excellent customer service, color, cut, fabulousity!!!!
• Cons: NONE

Miracle Workers

I came into Salon b today with a color disaster, and left with the most gorgeous red hair EVER. Last week, at another Sacramento salon, I suffered a hair disaster - we are talking white streaks/chunks over a bizarre red color. It was AWFUL. I called Salon B after reading the great reviews online. They were friendly on the phone and set me up with Amy ASAP.

Amy, who is a color certified expert, diligently worked my hair into this gorgeous, debra messing-like red hair. I was thrilled and I am SO happy with my hair. Reds are tricky and Amy nailed it. I couldn't be happier. During my appointment the owner introduced herself to me, and all the stylists were very professional and welcoming. Exceptional job by Amy - thank you so much. I will be back! I love Salon b!

• Pros: Color experts, great atmosphere, good pricing, quality!!!!
• Cons: None!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE my hair!

I was very nervous looking for a new stylist and color specialist, but Salonb came highly recommended.

It was reassuring to know that Elle Magazine ranked Salonb one of the top 100 hair salons in the country in the August 09 issue.

Amy listened very carefully to what I wanted and the results are over the top. I've never had a better cut and color... EVER!

Amy is a GODDESS!

The calming ambience of the salon is icing on the cake!

• Pros: The sytle and color specialists are artists!

Whenever I've ventured away...I've always come back!

by ItsMeTamitha at Citysearch

I started out as a client of Kathleen's approximately 15 years ago. Over the years I have also used several other stylists in the salon including Scott, Lindsay and currently Amy. They are all WONDERFUL and I love that I can change between stylists if one of them is booked.

I live in the Auburn area and I hate the drive to Sacramento just to get my hair done. But...every time I get the idea that I will find someone else, I come running back to Salon B. I do feel badly that they have to fix the mess that other stylists make of my hair when I venture off. I would trust any of the stylists at Salon B to cut or color my hair because they are all highly trained and skilled at both.

I do not and never have worked for Salon B but I do feel like part of the family when I am there. I am not surprised that there are so many great reviews because it truly is the best hair salon I have ever been to. I have referred many friends over the years that are still loyal customers. In fact, one of my best friends was in tears from an experience she had recently at a salon in downtown Sacramento. It was a true hair emergency and thankfully Amy was able to fit her in. She is so happy with her hair now and she has not stopped thanking me.

• Pros: Risk-free, consistently great results!
• Cons: Salon is too far from where I live.

Expert hair care and kind, attentive service

by DLee at Citysearch

I think that Kathleen and Scott have a real gift for taking care of each customer and still have a busy salon. Their assistants are also very good. Kathleen is a specialist in color and Scott is meticulous with haircuts. I have been in awe of the clients that leave after having Avery do their color and cuts-they looked beautiful. I also like their vast supply of Aveda products.

• Pros: knowledgable and attentive
• Cons: none
