I went to Megan LaCore and made the mistake of not asking how much the cut and color would be before -- it was over $200 and I hated it!!! She didn't cut it how I asked and she k...

The Greatest!!!!!!!!!! 8/19/2008

I just moved into the area, I'm originally from southern california and I've been trying to find a hair dresser for the last couple of months. I was taking a stroll down Lincoln Avenue one evening, trying to get acquainted with my new neighborhood and decided to go inside this unique hair salon called Alchemy. The receptionist was very friendly and asked if I had an appointment. I told her that I didn't, but was hoping to get in with someone who was available. She went to go find out and came back to tell me that a gal named Ruth would take care of me as soon as she was finished with the client in her chair. I sat down to observe the colorful well decorated salon and soon enough Ruth came over to introduce herself to me. During our consultation I had explained to her all my needs and wants, she also had her own suggestions and ideas. She was very understanding and gave me great descriptive ideas for my haircut and color. She also suggested a couple of products for my hair that actually work awesome with my hair texture. Let me just say that Ruth is awesome! I get compliments everywhere I go and I highly recommend her to anyone. I have never had such a great haircut and color in my life. I'm very very happy with my haircut/color and I'm lucky that I found her. I've been to a million salons in my lifetime and finally found one and a great hair stylist to go with it! Thanks Doll! See you in 6 weeks... Pros: Evening and Saturday appointments available , friendly comfortable enviroment. Great customer service! Cons: zero more

Jan is the Rockstar of facialist! 8/19/2008

I just had a facial with Jan in the new spa section of Alchemy I. I cannot say enough good things about Jan. She is amazing! I have had many, many facials and this was by far the best I have ever had! She was so gentle with her extractions (for me the worst part of a facial) and her massage was heavenly and relaxing. She adds little treats, like adding a soothing foot rub to the service. My skin looked amazing after she was done and her skin care recommendations have kept my skin looking amazing. She works with the Dermalogica line which I love, it is a great product line for all types of skin. I would have to say Jan is a wonderful addition to the Alchemy family...I am looking forward to my next appointment with her! If you have never had a facial before, I highly recommend Jan for your first one...she will make you a fan for life! Pros: Professional, highly knowledgable, gentle and relaxing! Cons: Not a thing more

Learned The Hard Way 8/13/2008

I had read the rave reviews about Ruth and decided to try her. I have long hair with layers in the bottom half. I had began our session by asking for a trim of all my ends including the layers. At the end of the blow-dry I had asked her again for the same trim. She charged $60 for a wash, blow-dry and trimming 2 inches off the bottom. I could have gotten the same at Supercuts for a lot less. With some frustration she asked another more senior stylist to join so I could explain to her what I was asking for. It's a simple technique to trim layers, why could we not communicate? She'd reluctantly accomodated. It was an unpleasant expereince. more

Kelli Rocks! 8/7/2008

I have been going to Kelli O'Neill for almost 2 years now. I am extremely picky about my hair and who cuts it. Kelli always has great ideas and I have grown to trust her sense of style. I have never received so many compliments on my hair cuts before. She is a great hair stylist and a wonderful conversation starter. She is friendly, unique and trustworthy. I wouldn't go to anyone else to have my hair cut. more

Ruth Rocks ! 7/23/2008

I had an appointment this saturday with Ruth. Although she arrived about 10-15 minutes late after the scheduled appointment time, but when she started she was very patient and listened carefully to what I told her. And my hair-style received 4 compliments just next day. Not to mention one at a corporate meeting :->\r \r She really understood what I wanted and styled my hair according to my hair-growth pattern and it makes me feel better. I think I finally have a good hair stylist... Kudos to you, Ruth !! Pros: Ambience good, music entertaining, cute front desk girl :-> Cons: limited space and looks like a crowded place even with few people more

Jenessa is AMAZING 7/21/2008

I was shopping the other day and ran into a gal that had beautiful blonde highlights. It was not like the boring drabbish highlights I had at the time. I asked her where she went and she recommended Jenessa. I was reluctant to go somewhere else and ""cheat"" on my stylist since I had been going to her for years but I went anyways. I'm so glad that I did because she revamped my blonde and put some dimension in it. I LOVE my hair color! I now have to break up with my old stylist because I'm not going to anyone else but Jenessa. Pros: Everything Cons: Nothing more

Best South Bay hair stylist! 2/19/2008

Jen Bradford at Alchemy II is absolutely the BEST! She is great with natural curls, always has awesome suggestions that mach my hair texture, bone structure and personality. She's a pro at color too. I looked high and low to find a good stylist after moving to the South Bay and finally found Jen. She's been doing my hair for years. I followed her to Alchemy II from her last salon. When you find the right stylist, you've got to keep her! more

The Best Salon in the Bay Area 1/30/2008

When one looks for a salon and a stylist, they have the desire to have someone who REALLY listens and REALLY cares and gives REAL advise. One should look no further then Ruth at Alchemy Hair Salon. Women know what I am talking about, you go to a place and they give you a cut(whatever cut) and then you are on your way. Not Ruth, she is what one would call a hair savior. The perfect stylist who is real and I believe is the best stylist I have ever been to and I have been around a while. Thanks, Ruth for getting me out of the hair dumps and making me feel like a hip and pretty 40ish gal... Call Alchemy, ask for Ruth and tell her Margaret sent ya... Pros: Ruth more
