Magic Touch Beauty Salon

OK so I came to get extensions on Monday and asked Jenny how much would it cost to just add a link to my hair. She told me I need to get a full head of extensions for length. My hair is already pretty long down to my mid back but since I got it cut recently I missed my hair that’s down to my waist and wanted to get 22 inches just add it to the back. I explained to her that I just wanted length not my full head and asked her how much it would cost. She told me depending on how many pieces I want and that each strand is $ 3. I made an appointment for 12 o’clock and she only got to me at 12:56 and hour later. She offered a free hot oil treatment and I agreed. Then took another hour for me to dry my hair and had her sister apply extensions in my hair. I realized that her sister was going pretty high up and I told her that I only wanted the bottom portion for length to be extended. She ignored and kept going. After I was finished I gave her my credit card and she charged me $ 350. I was devastated and asked what am I being charged for she explained that 100 pieces were put into my hair for a full head and I was charged $ 3.50 due to the length of 22 inches. When I came home I had my mom count how many extensions were in my hair and it equaled out to 60 strands. I came back complaining about what had happened and she threw a fit told me that I have enough for a full head and the number of strands does not matter that if it’s a full head she doesn’t even count and charges 350. I asked her for a refund and after being there for 35 minutes she agreed to put $ 126 onto my card. I asked to see her license and take a picture of it and she wouldn’t let me I then seen it on the wall she ripped it off and pushed me and threw my phone on the ground. I am going to file a lawsuit against her and press charges for the violence. Please please people do not come here

I have been coming here for years and Jenny has been doing my hair. She is amazing! I never have to tell her what I need. She always knows exactly what I want. She is very efficient. Her prices are very reasonable and her extensions are amazing. I highly recommend Jenny!

Jenny is amazing– friendly and always does a great job cutting and coloring my hair!

I came here after a woman came my job basically praising Jenny for how great she was. I went home did my research and was impressed with all positive reviews. I made an appointment and was ready to get my hair extensions done. I spoke to Jenny about the texture/​quality of the hair which she mentioned was the best. I wanted curly extensions since my hair is curly. Upon applying I noticed she wasn’t putting in enough hair for me, I would complain and she would simply say, «No, this is good, this is enough.» By the time She was done with my hair I was in love with it! Getting compliments left and right, however when I showered my hair, the extensions lost their curls, and became wavy? Not my expectation, especially since Jenny swore her extensions will remain curly and won’t lose their curls. I would try putting in oils and she advised, but still the curls were long gone. I have had these micro extensions for less than a month and they get extremely matte, and dry! I can’t even run my hands through My hair without there being a knot. I’m forced to carry a brush with me all the time, and when I brush out the extensions it becomes nappy and very gross looking. I’m so upset what a waste of money! It’s amusing she was speaking badly of my Hair stylist and saying the extensions my stylist used were poor quality and nothing compared to her hair. I normally go to mei in structure but the only thing with her is she uses beads that fall of easily, Jenny’s beads haven’t fallen out yet, but the hair is horrible quality. 350 $ for nothing. Two stars for her giving me the ash brown color I always wanted. Other than that horrible experience.

Jenny is AMAZING. Excellent quality extensions for the best price I’ve ever seen. Great atmosphere in the shop, they will not let you leave unhappy. I absolutely trust these people with my hair (aka my life). Couldn’t recommend it more.

Jenny always does an amazing job, hair color always matches exactly to extensions and the extensions never fall out!!! Mercedes was a wonderful addition to the salon. So genuine, funny and quick with extension removal! Thanks guys!

I have tried going to other hair salon around Westlake Daly City, and wanted to try Magic Touch Beauty Salon. The color of my hair was black on the upper part while the rest of my hair has a dark brown color in it. Jenny who is the owner of the salon did an amazing job in fixing my hair color by using a caramel blond hair dye. Her other staff Alex, did helped blow-​dry my hair. I’m happy with the result of my hair and I highly recommend this salon.

I called Jenny for an appt Friday and she told me to come in sat noon. I also mention that my hair is very short pixie cut. She told me to text her a pic. She told me she is able to put extensions in my hair. So the appt day I walk in. She look at me weird maybe because my hair was very short. She then seated me and I ask her again can u put the extensions in or no. She said yes. So she started working on my hair one roll. Then some lady who works there came out and she took over. By then I was already upset. I notice another customer on the chair and Jenny went to put her extensions n let her assistant did mines. This is my second time here. Jenny did my hair before but at that time my hair was long. This time I am very unhappy with my hair. Cost me 300 and she let someone else take over. The lady who did my hair didn’t seem like she knows what she is doing. Over all I will not return back due to this service. Jenny treated her regular customer very well but if u barely go to her please read all the review. I came home crying and my whole head hurts. Extensions aren’t suppose to be painful. I didn’t care about how much it cost but to get treated this way she just lost a good customer.

Great first experience! My son really needed a haircut and he got exactly the style he wanted. Alex did an amazing job! We’ll definitely be back!

Wei is absolutely amazing!!! I was in dire need of an update. Just see for yourself; i love the color, and pricing is really affordable. Thanks Wei!

So I was very desperate for a color and cut and the other salon I usually go to was closed, so I decided to Unilocal a hair salon close by my house, maybe thinking of trying somewhere new wouldn’t of hurt. Then I came across «magic touch beauty salon» it’s really funny because I go to the magic touch in San Mateo. So I tried this one out and called and jenny answered the phone saying I could come in. Hoping she wasn’t busy, there were three other women ahead of me getting their hair done. So, jenny had asked what color id like and immediately I told her I wanted like a purple color and I was trying really hard to get away from the color red. There was a purple/​dark brown wig color that I instantly fell in love with and told her I wanted that color! She mixed the dye before I told her and she had a guy, who could not speak English, to dye my hair. I asked her if she’s doing the color I wanted and she said «you’re asking for too much!» Right away I felt really offended. Why the fck would you have different colors along your wall if you cannot dye it the color I want? Jenny just mainly talked to her Chinese customers and I just felt very excluded. Other places would make me feel very comfortable, but my experience there wasn’t a good one. All in all, my hair came out RED the color I didn’t want. I’m only giving two stars because of the good effort the non English speaking Chinese guy did on my hair.

I’ve been searching for a hair salon that would suit me, unfortunately this has been one of the worst experience. First off, I went to this place based on the high reviews about Jenny. So I called and spoke with Jenny yesterday for an appointment today, she had available time in the evening, which was awesome. I specifically said I wanted her to cut my hair, she said OK, she has time.
Appointment Day: Walked in, friendly greeting from both. I said I have an appointment with Jenny at 6:30. One lady (sadly, I did not get her name) said OK. A few seconds later that lady seated me and asked how I wanted my hair cut. I asked if she was Jenny, and she said, No. Told her I made the appointment to see Jenny, she said she’s busy. BUMMER. But being the lazy person that I am, I figured, she can’t be that bad…
Well. I have shoulder length hair, (A-​line prior to the cut). I wanted a quarter inch trim, with side layers and layers all around and asked for her not to use a razor because it frizzes my hair. She said she doesn’t use it, she doesn’t like using razors. OK, great. Now on to cutting my hair… wait… she didn’t cut it yet, she started to straighten my hair, as if that wasn’t odd enough, she didn’t bother to use any heat protective product. Irritated, but I felt that it was too late to get up and leave, and honestly, wanted to give her the benefit of the doubt, I mean… what do I know about cutting hair and such and such? right? Wrong. 10 minutes later… after straightening my already straighten short hair she pursued the side layers. Layers turned out great. Then, she twisted it and used that comb scissor and chomped hair about 3 to 4 times, I realized now… it is to thin my hair. (I didn’t ask to thin my hair!). Already too late… I watched her next move. Her «layer» all around consist of twisting pieces and chomping it 3 to 4 times. Pretty much in awe… and not knowing yet, that this would be my layers… I waited for the layers. She was done. I looked at my hair, asked her where the layers are… she said, she gave me short ones… um… I asked where… she said it’s hard to see cause it’s short. At this point, there’s no point. She proceeded to straighten my hair again… now… it’s as flat as can be. Funny thing is… in the end, she demonstrated how I can blow dry my hair for volume… huff.
Anyway, came home. showered… blowed dry my hair. It’s frizzy as fuck! i’m taking a wild guess that it’s because she twisted my hair all around and used that comb scissor to chomp on it. So basically, her definition of layer… is to thin 2″ of the bottom of my hair as much as possible. I shall wait 3 months before trying out another place.
Bummed. But at least… now I know.

I’ve been going to Jenny over half a year now and everytime I come here, the results are amazing. I just got my hair dyed red, and I love it. If you need a good hairstylist you can trust, you can count on Jenny!

Installation for the extensions was very good. i’ve had the extensions for 3 months and not one strand has fallen out.
NOT HUMAN HAIR though. Might be a blend or something but this hair will not hold a curl… hard to style.
Also Jenny didn’t put enough strands in my hair so it was a little thin.
She’s nice, but I would ask questions and she would ignore me and pretend that she didn’t hear me… awkward
I got a color and extensions and they didn’t match exactly for the color…

I like going here cz I like Jenny she’s really nice and do care about your hair. I always go there for my hi-​lites and haircut, they have reasonable price too!!!

Went to this place for a haircut, nothing complicated, just a nice tight fade and a little off the top. The gentleman who cut my hair did just that. Great fade, quick and clean. $ 15 is a reasonable price, but I’ll probably go to another place that I am a regular at over in Irving St. This is a good secondary place for me to go for my fade.

Got my extensions for the first time, Jenny is great! When they kept falling off i started to freak out, i went back she said its normal since i had short hair, but Jenny would put them back for me! Second time I got them re– tighten, Jenny was great! I wanted to make more fuller but only had enough money for a couple more, she added a lot more hair! I was so happy, it lasted longer and didn’t fall as much! Jenny was patient since it was all tangled and she explained how I had to brush better! This place is def worth it and def get ur money’s worth!

Park Plaza Drive is fortunate to have 3 very good hair salons. I have tried all 3 and I like them all … but, there’s this guy Winsor (or Winson?) from Magic Touch that keeps me going back there because he knows how to really customize hair cuts for men.
With clean edges, and an even (almost uniform), smooth cut all-​around … you’d love looking at yourself often in any reflective surface … as well as touching your own hair.
I cannot speak for his female clientele but, guys, after reading this review and you’re still looking for that much-​trusted barber/​hair stylist that you’d hang on to for years … seek out Winson (or Winsor?) and discover for yourself what I’m talking about in here.
I would have loved to keep this a little secret but an excellent, hard-​working guy like Winso … (whatever his name’s true spelling is!) deserves an honest shoutout … so try to come by Magic Touch and try him out!

Jenny is amazing, and does my girlfriends hair PERFECTLY, I am very impressed and would not hesitate to recommend her for hair styling and extensions!!! Very impressive talent that not many extension experts can duplicate to her standards! We love this place!

SERIOUSLY. I should have really listened to the one star reviews.
Luckily, I did not have to feel the wrath.
The boyfrann did, SUCKAAAA.
The bruhs, the bf, and I walked into this salon at about 7:20. We clearly interrupted the stylists’ tv time. Sorry.
We were ‘warmly’ greeted by the man and the woman. I said a guys haircut and pointed to my boyfriend.
She pointed to the other guy, telling us that hes going to do all of the cutting.
My bro had to use the restroom, and I told him to ask the lady, since she wasn’t doing much. She looked kind of irritated, I guess because we were only getting one hair cut? So what if we had three people waiting inside, there was no one there.
Anyways, the guy proceeds to ask my boyfriend how he wants his hair. He told him to just trim the top, well trim A LOT of it and to fade the sides to a 3? Whatever, guy talk. So far so good, he faded the sides a teeny bit and continued trimming. About 10 mins later, another guy walks in and seats himself (rudely), but I knew that was immediately a bad sign. The person cutting the hair was going to rush because he obviously wanted to close by 8. Another 10 minutes goes by and my boyfriend is finished. I looked at his hair and I could not tell that it was touched. In fact, there was barely any hair on the floor. My boyfriend has hair as thick as a gorillas pitz!!! There was a few strands on the floor. He also rounded out the front of my boyfriends hair. It looks like a combover got attacked by a bowl. I hope you guys get the imagery I am trying to insert in your minds.
I mean I usually give some slack to people who cut a girls hair because girls are really picky and theres so many ways someone can mess up on a lady’s hair.
But if you can’t even give a guys haircut, then you really REALLY can’t give hair cuts. I mean. it was friggin 15 dollars too. We’ve been all over sunset and San Mateo and has never experienced an ugly 15 dollar hair cut. So pissed. My boyfriend who is usually very calm was sweating cause he was so heated. The boyfriend demanded that more hair has to be cut from the sides, he snipped a few more strands off. No difference at all. MY FINGERS ARE HURTING BECAUSE I AM PISSED. His money is my moneyand my money is his money so I have the right to be upset. In fact, my fingers are hurting from typing this review so ferociously. My boyfriend even paused his 2k11 game (THAT GAME IS SACRED, PAUSING IS ONE HECK OF A DEAL) and said these exact words:
«sounds like a horse stampeding! Why you typing so loud and fast? Oh youre probably typing a review for that hair place huh?»
NOW HE NEEDS ANOTHER HAIR CUT. MY GOODNESS.
the least they couldve done was be nice, just saying. They woulda received a nicer tip.
