Bliss On B St

Located in Downtown Hayward in a quaintly decorated salon. I scheduled a haircut with Cristina Arizala on Style Seat (iPhone app) after my best friend’s recommendation. The facilities are clean and modern. Cristina was warm and welcoming. She listened to what I had in mind and added on to it with her suggestions. Cristina is great at her craft. She seriously takes her time and does not take anything less than perfection. I love the length, weight, and look of my hair so much that I booked a dye job with her for next month. Check her out if you’re looking to make a minor or major change to your locks.

I agree with some of the comments. This place definitely doesn’t know how to return customers message. There’s too many salon out there to stress over this one. Tip: don’t go to a salon that doesn’t return your message!!!

Expensive. Average haircutting skills. Ok color. Couldn’t get a second app. I called and called and texted. everytime she said she was booked months in
i asked for an app months in advance but she said she dsnt do that. so how did those other people get booked!!! She told me to keep calling. Well i called and no one ever answers or returns messages! I regret tipping her 35% that time I went.

I saw my all time favorite stylist, Karen, today. I left so excited about my hair, beautiful as always.

Called the salon several times today and goes straight to voicemail. I also left individual messages for Robin and Nancy but had no luck. According to the salon’s voicemail, they are not accepting new clients but you can leave a message to be placed on their waitlist. Not sure how long their waitlist is but for someone with a lion’s mane, time is not something I have. If anyone has any ideas how to get in touch with a stylist from Bliss, please share!

I have been going to Cristina since last summer and absolutely love her. I have had horrible experiences with other hairstylists so I haven’t had my hair colored in almost 12 years. Cristina was recommended to me and she listens to what you want and delivers. I will continue to go to her for my cuts, balayage, and refreshers. I get compliments even after months of getting my color done. I highly recommend her.

Nancy does my hair here and I was so excited to find someone who knew how to cut asian hair. I ask her for her opinion and she is not shy to tell you what the end product will be so you won’t be surprised. she lets you know if your face shape and what you’re going for will work out.

I have been trying to find a local hairdresser that is great and here she is! Nancy cut and colored my hair and did a GREAT job. When it comes to my hair I am not a fan of change but took a leap of faith and Nancy did not disappoint. Highly recommend — the shop is lovely and clean. Nancy did a great job of not only covering up my grey but fixing the two toned mess my last stylist had made.

I barely ever get my hair cut since I want it long, but whenever I do, I go to Robin! She gets it right every time, even when I don’t really know what I want, she makes my hair look great. Recently, she did a subtle ombré where she just dyed the bottom layer at the very tips. I love it, since I can’t commit to a full dye or highlights.
Too bad she’ll be limited for the next year, but she recommended to try Cristina when she’s not available.

I’ve been going to Cristina for a few months, and she has been wonderful. Very professional, personable, and attentive, she does an excellent job on my hair every time. One time I completely forgot about an important appointment which coincided with my appointment with her, so I called the night before, and not only did she work around my schedule, she was so calm about it. (Thanks again, Cristina!!) She also does makeup on the side, so she shares makeup tips as well. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a stylist or makeup artist.

I am kinda disappointed and hate to leave a negative comment.
I chose the salon based on the awesome Unilocalers reviews which i do trust.
I have been trying to contact the salon for 10 days now !!! and no replies !
This is really strange, and unusual for people who want business. First I called Nancy and left a message, and since she is on leave as mentioned on her automatic reply. I decided to call the salon, I called mid-​week and through the weekend. NO REPLIES at all !! Even the main salon number, no one answers, just automatic message directing you to leave a message and someone will get back to you. which never happened in my case.
I moved recently to town and I was hoping to be a regular, but with such customer care, not sure, now I will have to find some other place who at least return a call.

Cristina is badass with hair and makeup. Showed her a picture of what I wanted for my look and she executed both wonderfully. My hair looked even better than the picture! It was so unique and I received a lot of compliments at the wedding. Definitely going here again ;)

have you met Tina? Then you are completely missing out! Shes the sweetest, nicest and knows her hair.
HIGHLY recommended!

How cute is this salon? Clean, affordable and down the street from my house!
Ask for Nancy, she’s the best of the best. She’s often pretty booked, but that just tells you how great she is.

Such a cozy gem of a salon to come to. It’s really soothing and relaxing when you come here to get your hair done. All the girls that work here are really friendly. I come here to see Nancy Vu-​Ha to get my hair done cause she’s an amazeballs hairstylist, she used to work on A Street, atop the Sunflower 2 restaurant, but has since moved to this location.
Service is great and all the ladies here are super friendly, it’s a clean environment, they take pride in work well done. I’ve seen ladies, including myself walk outta this salon, a whole new person. Whether you are getting a cut, highlighting, colors, shampoo and blow-​dry, it almost seems as if, it’s a new woman walking outta the salon once these ladies are done working their magic on you.
I recommended a friend to Nancy and was given $ 15 off my visit. Not sure if she still offers 20% off your first visit to her, but that definitely helped out a lot with the bill. Normally, I have Nancy give me a cut and put two colors in my hair and it’s roughly about $ 175 with tip. That’s not bad actually. If you can afford to get your hair done every six months, I suggest coming to Nancy for all your needs or maybe even another girl that works here. I know that you will really enjoy the salon with its Tiffany blue walls and contemporary feel, you will definitely be comfortable during your 2 – 3 hour stay with them when getting your hair done.

After years of jumping from salon to salon because I never quite felt fully satisfied, I can honestly say that I’ve FOUND MY SALON!
I don’t get haircuts as often as I should, so when I do get around to going to a salon, I’ve built up a high expectation and a tremendous amount of anxiety. In my mind, I have this ideal image of what my new haircut looks like, how it perfectly frames my face, how it moves seductively in slow motion as I walk down the runway (street), and how everything else in my life falls perfectly into place. Obviously, I’m full of it, and I know a haircut doesn’t win me the lotto, but I do acknowledge the transformative power it can have, and how change can be good.
I’ve spent the better part of the past few years jumping between high priced salons in SF to decently priced salons in humble suburbs, looking for a place to tame my mane. I’ve had good outcomes at some and great outcomes at others, but never have I gotten an amazing outcome as I did with Bliss On B St. My hairstylist, Robin (coincidence, I swear… or shall I say God’s way of telling me my search is over) deciphered my ramblings and completely understood the new look I wanted. She took her time chopping off my long, tangled strands, and gave me the most flattering bob that framed my fat face. I left the salon feeling accomplished, fresh, and most importantly, pretty!
To be fair, I’m not big on coloring or perming, so I can’t review those services since I didn’t experience them. For me, it’s all about the cutting and shaping. Bliss On B St has me willing my hair to grow out faster so I can book another appointment. I love this new short hair look I got going on, but am already fantasizing what my next style will be like.

After searching for a new stylist I came across Nancy on Unilocal here at Bliss. I called and spoke to the receptionist and she said the stylists keep their own schedules. She took down my info and said she would have Nancy contact me. Later that day Nancy contacted me and I set up an appt. for the following week.
Bliss is easy to locate on B ST. Parking can be difficult depending on the time of day. There is very few street parking spots and a couple of nearby lots.
The salon is very cute, clean and nicely decorated.
Nancy greeted me when I walked in and introduced herself. She was very friendly and warm from the start and throughout my visit. She sat me down and consulted with me. She listened, asked some questions and together we came up with a game plan. Keeping the length and adding more layers.
After a nice relaxing shampoo and conditioning it was time to pull the scissors out. Usually I’m very nervous even scared with a new stylist. I have has some horrible experiences. I didn’t see long pieces of hair following (that is my nightmare and past experience). We kept up a conversation till the end. She almost had to pull me out of her chair since I didn’t want to leave. Nancy put my worries at ease. The hour and a half went by quickly. She was very detailed making sure that the layers were even and cross checked.
For the shampoo, cut and blow dry the price was $ 60. Online the Bliss site says $ 45. which was what I thought it was going to be but Nancy said she charges $ 60. She did give a discount for being a new client so the total was $ 48. plus tip. $ 58. out the door.
Each stylist charges differently make sure to ask for their price.
Nancy is my new hair gal! I’m happy with the service given.

I’ve been coming to Nancy Vu to get my hair done for 2 years now and my hair has never looked or felt better! She does a stellar job with my hair every time! She’s always giving me tips on how to better maintain my hair and recommendations of which products to use to improve the quality of my hair.
I’ve been getting a lot of compliments about my hair ever since I started going to Nancy.

Before coming to Bliss on B St., I took a gander at their reviews on Unilocal and noticed that there weren’t ANY male reviews. Despite having a flawless 5 Star Unilocal average, I hesitated about venturing into something categorized as a «Hair Salon.» I mean, can you say, «would you like a peddie with that?» After all, I pride myself as a macho kinda guy [deep cough, deep cough].
Robin bravely volunteered to work her skills as my hair stylist (I don’t know what title to use, and I assume she doesn’t want to be called a barber). It was clear to me from the very beginning of my visit, Robin was a complete professional. She immediately put me at ease and methodically worked her way through my thick, wire-​y hair. Her easy-​going, friendly demeanor made it relatively quick, painless, and quite frankly enjoyable experience.
It’s hard to argue with the results. I’m not generally one to toot my own horn, but damn… I thought I looked exceptionally good and so did a looot of women. In fact, I don’t think I’ve been complimented so much about a hair cut until then. Thanks Robin! So fellahs, don’t be put off by the fact that it is indeed a hair salon and most of the other patrons will probably be women… these women know what they’re are doing and they do it oh so well!

I come for Nancy and Nancy only!
