The Scene
On a street of big retail names, chic coffee shops and trendy galleries, this hip salon blends in swimmingly. Occupying the second floor of an industrial-type building, the view is all cityscape while the inside is reminiscent of 1950's glamour, with copper walls and retro furniture. An ever-changing display of local artwork adorns the walls.

I have been to many of the top salons in San Francisco over the past 4 years (77 Maiden Lane, Cowboys and Angels, and Cinta to name a few...) searching for a stylist who I like that can both cut and color hair. It's been a long, frustrating search but I've finally found her...Kimberly G at Acme Head and Body!! I'm a blonde and constantly on the hunt for the perfect shade of white blonde that's not too yellow or ashy. For some reason every place I've been has messed up my color (always too natural, mousey, or yellow) but Kimberly totally understood me and GOT THE COLOR RIGHT! Not only that, she has a super cool personality (she's very easy to talk to and SO knowledgeable) and my hair cut rocked too! I recommend her to anyone who is fed up with the "top" San Francisco salons and wants to finally have their hair done right!

Kimberly cut and styled my hair for the first time Thursday (3-13-08). I have just moved to SF from the East coast and had no idea where to go to get my hair done. To say I have problem hair is an understatement. I have thick natural curls that are such a problem to control. I went to Kimberly with my friends suggestion (and wonderful praises), as she has been seeing Kim for a year or so now. I went in with ideas of what I wanted to leave with, I had hopes of getting a good cut that I will be able to style myself once I go home. I had zero hopes that she would be able to style my hair like I wanted, no one has ever been able to. Kim amazed me. She not only cut my hair just as I asked of her she was able to style my hair like never before. Better than my highest hopes. I am THRILLED with Kim. I would, and will, recommend her to everyone I know. And to top it off she is a wonderful personality who listens to you and really cares about you as her client. No rushing to get to the next client. She spent so much time with me and really made me happier with my hair than I think I've ever been. Thank you Kimberly!! YOU ROCK
Pros: Great service, nice atmosphere, excellent skills
Cons: none
