Cowboys & Angels was created in 1994 by partners Louise Baranowski, Skip Cathey, and Tracey McAlister. From the salon that used to be Architects and Heroes, Cowboys & Angels moved in to the space of high-style design and has now earned a name for itself recognized in Allure Magazine, and several Bay Area publications.

This salon offers blowdries, hair cuts, hair coloring, fringe cuts, perms, partial perms, relaxers, tinting, highlights, special conditioning treatment, hair and scalp treatment and up-dos.

Editorial Review for Cowboys & Angels – by Erin Cullerton

The Scene
When British expats Louise Baranowski and Tracey McAlister decided to open their own salon in San Francisco, they couldn't have made a smarter move. Hailing from London's upscale Sloane Street district, Baranowski and McAlister have taken modern hairstyling to a new extreme. In fact, their industrial-chic salon and gallery is known for drawing a decidedly cool clientele--after just one peek, you'll see why.

The Services
The international crew of stylists mirrors the owners' main objective: to bring creative flair and passion to hairdressing. Whether you're feeling conservative or daring, stylists here make sure you get what you want. You can always look forward to a decadent experience that begins with a luxurious shampoo and scalp massage performed by one of the aspiring assistants. While the salon doesn't do extensions or perms, this is the place to come for funky color, highlights or a great, cutting-edge 'do.

If you had trouble at this salon like me, take a drive to Sacramento and get your hair done by Elon at Deeda Salon. So worth the drive! Best cut and color ever! Never been this happy with my hair!

Colorists are not knowledgable enough to create great color. If you see what the employees hair, you'll understand. The blonde's are hued with purple or green highlights and look extremely overprocessed. The cuts are not any better than what you get at a school. Most of the stylists are distracted and uninterested. The price you pay is outrageous, for hair that is below standard! Also, when they wash your hair, you can easily strain your neck in the sink area, and most of the assistants will burn your scalp with hot water and get you soaked. The entire experience is long and torturous. Thumbs Down for this place!

Pros: None

Cons: Many
