Alcheme Salon

The salon behind the hair styles of SF Fashion Week!

Magic meets science. Transformation. Creation. Artisan and technician meld into one. The vision of an environment where the rules bend at the hands of skilled professionals. Where fashion sets the margins, but human insight and creativity fill the lines between with images of elegance, punk, classic, trendy, and the avante' garde.

The surroundings: open, serene, crisp. Ever present energy in the calmness. Stylists are diverse in color and tastes but united with lab coats of white. Clients feel comfortable and are treated with the utmost professionalism. The client makes a wish. The stylist is both the author of the prescription and the catalyst for change.

What is Alcheme Salon about? The marriage of magic and science. The wonder of human skill and artistry. The transformation of the image.

Editorial Review for Alcheme Salon – by Joanna Currier

In Short
This fourth-floor salon has large windows and a slightly industrial, art-gallery feel. Owner and stylist Angela Chong-Montague -- an accomplished artist (her conceptual art hangs on the walls) -- heads up a team of 12 stylists and assistants intent on achieving everything from the most natural to the most experimental styles. Patrons range from mid-twenties professionals to octagenarians, and may walk out with a simple cut, stunning new color, or edgy razor cut or faux-hawk.

User Reviews for Alcheme Salon

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

When I first moved to the Bay Area, I was worried about finding a good hairdresser. Two years down the line, I'm ecstatic that I chose Angela at Alcheme to be my stylist. This salon is worth every penny-and the trek from East Bay-every couple of months. You won't get a haircut that is just "fashionable". Instead, you'll receive a style that complements your face and personality. It's all about individualism, here :)

I have been going to Selida for 6 years and I am so happy that she is now at Alcheme Salon; the location is very accessible. I have always received oodles of complements about my hair since going to Selida and will continue to be a devoted client for years to come. She has always helped me make the best decisions, I am now trying to grow my hair very long and she is making sure my hair is as healthy as can be when it is at the length I want. If you want to be stopped in the street with compliments go to Selida, a woman told me I am the type of woman that makes other women jealous while still in the salon, true story
