Seeking Hair Stylist in Pleasanton Area

Hi N.,
I can see you have had several suggestions offered to you regarding a hairstylist. I will echo the two who suggested Fusion 3. It is a wonderful salon. I have been going to see Anna for almost 5 years now. I use to live in Pleasanton and then moved to Santa Barbara ane would occasionally make the drive up just to get my hair done. The last time I went in for a cut I took my little boy who was almost 3 months old at the time. They were very patient with him and loved having him arround. I actually ended up having to hold him on my lap the whole time and they were very accomodating. The nice thing about Fusion 3 is that with every haircut you get a head massage and tea. Good Luck.

I've been going to Jennifer Montgomery at MBS Salon for 5 years. I love her and she always suggests flattering styles.

This is a little out of the way, but I go to a little place is San Leandro, called American Hair. The business is owned by a relatively young couple. Ann is the wife and she is a fantastic hairstylist. I went to her on recommendation from a couple of friends, I had commented how well cut their hair looked. Needless to say I was surprised to find they only charge about $14 a cut. She has given me consistently great hair cuts, as good or better than the fancy salons in town. She also does good color. She totally updated my hairstyle in a way I can manage as a busy mom. good luck.

Karen at Plush Beauty Bar is great. She's located on Santa Rita Road in the Rose Pavillon. I been seeing for about 10 years, she's hip and is always up on all the new fads.

Hi N.! I know what you mean about needing some help finding the right hairdresser.

I have been a client of Ming Wong for almost ten years. She works at the Justin Michael Salon in Dublin. She's a Toni and Guy trained hair cutter and keeps up with the very latest techniques. She recently went to a seminar in Long Beach for a one day hair cutting seminar.

She and I traveled to London several years ago where she attended a week-long seminar. We also went to Dallas a couple of years ago where the Toni and Guy beauty school is located where she spent 4 days in advanced hair cutting class.

She cuts my husband's hair, my granddaughter's hair, my daughter's hair (she comes up from Long Beach).

She's not only a great cutter but is one of the kindest, most generous person I've ever known. Tell her C. sent you!

Feel free to call her on her cell phone. She carries her appointment book with her at all times.

There are other great hair dressers at that salon which is all Toni and Guy.

My friend Stacy has been doing my hair for the past nine years! Salon X in San Ramon. She is AWESOME!!! I went for a hair cut and it turned out she went to high school with my husband. I haven't let anyone touch my hair but her in 9 years. Now my mom, sister in law and oldest daughter all go to her! Call her and tell her A. recommended her!

N.- Gary Patrick Salon in Downtown Pleasanton is great. It is right above G.R. Doodlebug on Main Street. I have been going to Gary for years, not cheap but great cut and awesome staff. Check it out. ###-###-####. If you like him they have a great, pre-pay deal too. Ask about it.

I live in PLeasanton and know of a great stylist. Her name is N. and she works at Fusion 3 on Main Street downtown. She is also really sweet. The cut is about $60.

I have been going to Stephanie at Artisan Salon in Livermore for awhile. I love that she takes the time to explain styling techniques when I ask. I have heard good things about the other stylists there as well.

Hope that helps and that you find someone you like!

Hi N. -
I have been where you are and happen to still go to the peninsula for my dentist. For some reason I can't seem to give that up . . . I have a great hairstylist but she is in San Ramon. Her name is Blair and she is at Salon Terrazo, ###-###-####. They are located on Alcosta at the corner of Monte Video. Good luck.

A friend of mine is a great stylist in Dublin @ Justin Michael's Salon on San Ramon Blvd. Her name is Amy Blarock. She has been doing hair FOREVER and has worked at this nice salon for 10 years. She is very honest when it comes to styles and cuts and she listens to what you want... She doesn't get scissor happy! She keeps up with all the newest trends. I recomend her!

I got to Fusion 3 Salon, it is downtown on Main St. I have seen a couple different people there (they have a team approach) and have never been disappointed. PLUS, every time you go in they give you a scalp massage and a hand massage! Hope you like it!

There is a great salon in the Hacienda Shopping Center in Dublin. The name of the salon is ChristopherMichaels. The owner is Michael and that is who I've gone to for years.

In Livermore. Hair Reflections. Near new Trader Joe's, # Store, Grocery Outlet. I have been getting hair cuts from Cheryl for over 30 years, first in Fremont & now Livermore. Recommend highly. My husband is a teacher too - full time for 39 years & still subbing & tutoring.!

I also moved to the area a few years back & my real estate agent recommended a gal named
Suzi who is located downtown on the lower end of main st. I think the salon is called Garret & Co....but not positive as I only go there to see her so don't have that name committed to memory.
I love her. She does great highlights & layers. She would also be good to be able to help you choose new styles. For example I am 5 months pregnant & she pretty much talked me out of going short since that takes more styling effort & since she is a Mom of 2, she remembers in the beginning of the baby being born not wanting to make time for a more complicated do.
She is not cheap (what is in Pleasanton?) but I think worth it. (If you don't do highlights, I am sure she is more reasonable.) If you choose her please let her know J. Jopes sent you since I will see her soon. Her # ###-###-####

Leanne Meek is the owner and my stylist. I love her, the shop is easy to get to. I come from Livermore but was a San Francisco transplant and was commuting to Pacifica to get my hair done, until my little ones were here. Good luck!
