Pleased

by Michele712

I have been going to Jess at Cowboys and Angels for less than a year and I am extremely happy with the haircuts I receive. She does a great job. I have had my color done by Sarah and also was very pleased.

• Pros: Love Jess!
• Cons: Atmosphere could be made a bit more cozy. Very cold.

Marie - Best Colorist Hands Down

by stylecomm

What can I say - Marie is a color god. I use a combination of tint, highlights and low-lights. My friend calls it 'high maintenance hair that looks low maintenance'. I consistently get complimented on how beautiful my 'natural' color is - even by total strangers. She creates a warm honey hue with just the right balance of light to rich-dark color ratio. Marie is so assured about her craft, she makes it look effortless. A big plus - she's the kind of person who's fun to talk to, but she also gets it when you want down time, so it's always a comfortable experience.

• Pros: Near shopping, Muni & BART
• Cons: No good inexpensive parking options

Best color ever

by Malialuv

Marie is the best colorist in San Francisco; I have been going to her for 7 years and have followed her to another salon and back to C&A. I love my color, it is wonderful. I get my highlights and Marie adds a few low lights as needed or if I tell her I am in the mood for a darker color. I have received numerous compliments from everyone I encounter on my hair, and it always makes me feel great. The biggest compliment, for me, is that people don't realize I color my hair; Marie makes my hair look incredibly natural. I don't want a radical look, but dislike my hair color and Marie gives it just the right look every time.

not happy

by yestrada13

My husband went to this salon because I recommended it to him..I heard about it through a friend. Anyways, he was very upset with his haircut and on top of that the stylist was extremely defensive when he told her he wasn't happy. The stylist Nicole not Krepps who is now on maternity leave did not have good customer service skills. I was upset that I sent my husband to this overly priced salon. Do not recommend.

• Pros: none
• Cons: not made to feel like a valued customer

Drive to Sacramento!

by itsacult

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!

Stay Away!

by SFStyle

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

Beware

by camille2000

Beware. I went here for a haircut and ended up finding a $100 overcharge on my credit card statement. Hair cut was fine...if you go, pay with cash.

How'zat for service-don't bother!

by tahtian

When I leave the salon I expect to look great! Don' t you? I n't that why you pay bucks? I expect to walk out and look HOT! NOT! How can I look worse leaving= frousy, frizzy, scalp burning and a psycho color reminescent of grayish, khaki, dishwasher swampy? Did I mention and in tears dropping $250 for a supercut chop and a mess made of my blondish straight short hair? Of course no tip. Before returning to work I had to wash my hair down with water. When your friends tell you "it's not that bad"....IT IS BAD! They are too embarassed to tell you. Did I mention I was referred to this haircolorist and stylist? OMG! The next day I sent a letter to the manager and received NO response via phone or letter. It's been 3 weeks of "house frouse hair" How'zat for service? Don't bother.

Why all the hype?

by hazelton

I was trying to decide between a few salons and finally settled on this one mostly because I like the name. It's a "nice" space (could use updating and more lights) and the stylists look funky, have edgy haircuts so you'd expect something along the same lines if you asked for it...not so. Maybe they get their haircuts at one of the other salons I was considering. (It wasn't just my haircut, I took note of the other clients too.) And the consultation they promote on their website? I believe that was a joke. Before I could even finish talking through what I wanted, the stylist actually cut me off. Overall... this place is just, eh. And watch out for the unprofessional receptionist- she'll rip you a new one if you ask questions she doesn't feel like answering.

• Pros: nice windows to look out of
• Cons: not as skilled as you'd think
