Salon Styletto

Tasha came highly recommended to me when I reached out to the Unilocal community in search of a salon that could offer me more alternative, funky hair styles. I love bright colors, and a skilled, artistic stylist I can trust to do her thing. This was an excellent decision. Tasha made me feel right at home, we had some laughs, despite a long time time in the hair chair it was easy to feel comfortable, and she just did a beautiful job on my hair. I get compliments all the time on it lately — so, I’ll be back! :) Thank you Tasha!
I got a cut, style, and Black, Pink, and Purple dye for a very reasonable price, and she works fast, I was out of there in no time considering what was done.
Also, EXTRA points for allowing me to schedule my appointment time, and hair services online, as I find it annoying to make time during the day for phone calls lol!

I have rad hair still! Usually when I get it cut, the shape fades just days after getting it cut. Not this time. I am still getting compliments 4 weeks out! Tasha was very patient with me. I was late, talked the ENTIRE time due to my massive pregaming of redbull, and due to being late, forgot everything I needed. I can say it was the worst impression I could give and Tasha didn’t even bat an eye.
Bottom line: it didn’t cost anymore than the other «edgy» salons I have tried.
I’m returning to Tasha for life, I can’t say that about the other salons…
She was funny, and relatable, and very approachable!
I can’t wait to give her my money again!

My first time in this salon yesterday! I woke up today realizing how much better my bangs is! Thank you Tany for your patience and cutting my hair esp my bangs exactly the way I want it! I love it!

Tasha has been my hair girl for 5 years and she always makes me look and feel young and beautiful! The girls here are sweethearts. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!

I love it here! Tany has been doing my hair for over a year and I absolutely love her ! She’s the best ! The place is clean and so cute. It’s in a cool calm area. Totally recommend. Don’t waste your money anywhere else ladies and gents !

Super friendly atmosphere! Very clean! Tasha worked wonders on my super thick mop! Love love my hair!

I’ve had very long hair for the past five years and finally wanted a change. The prospect of cutting it all the way up to my shoulders was pretty scary — especially since I was afraid of my wavy hair turning into a frizzy poofball mess — so I wanted to make sure I went somewhere that would do a good job! I chose Salon Styletto after seeing all the great reviews on Unilocal and taking advantage of the voucher deal.
Tany did not disappoint. She was very friendly and this helped to ease my nervousness. She cut and styled my wavy hair very carefully. Now that it’s shorter, it’s quite curly with so much volume! She explained to me the technique by which she deals with cutting curls. I had never heard of it before, but now I don’t feel like I can trust anyone else with my hair — it looks so great! This change is extreme but I have felt nothing but satisfaction with my new hairstyle, and my friends and family seem to agree :)
In a nutshell, Salon Styletto provides wonderful service at an affordable price. I don’t think I will ever go back to a chain salon. This place has won me over!

I’m really picky about where I get my haircut, but I also don’t like to spend a lot. So I’ve been to many different stylists in the San Diego/​East County area but none ever quite «got» the slightly edgy look I was going for, even when I showed pictures (they weren’t even that crazy). Then came Tany! EVERY time I’ve seen Tany, she’s given me a great cut. Short hair, long hair, every style I’ve asked for. I love her. The only thing is that I almost never like my bangs, but that’s ok because I know how to cut them myself. But if you do like the way they trim your bangs, you can go in between cuts for bang trims for free.

I went in to get my bangs trimmed… Bettie bangs mind you and was given to tany. I’m no hair stylist but she
1.dry cut my bangs
2.flat ironed them first
3. Left me with a bowl hair cut. Bangs weren’t angled at all and straight across.
I told her my style and I have Bettie/​retro bangs or what have you. That is not what I ended up with.
She saw how upset I was and first told me free of charge and kept repeating «sorry about that» over and over. I finally gave her a picture before she left me close to no bangs and then got a «oh» and she sort of made them better and I just said «that will do» so I could get the hell out of there and then She charged me $ 5, wtf.
I’ve been wants to come here
For years and try it out because I’ve heard great things but that was a one time deal.

Hi Tany! All I have to say is you are AMAZING! I love the service I get from you. You had me sold the first time I went to get my haircut. I recently got my hair done last week and I have been getting non stop compliments about my hair! Thank you for listening to my requests and being so nice. I will definitely be going back here over and over again. Also, thank you for keeping my daughter entertained with the Hello Kitty coloring book and crayons!
Muah!

Tasha and Tany are amazing. I’ve gotten my hair cut and styled by both of them and have been more than pleased every time. They’re super sweet and listen to what you want and make suggestions if you just aren’t sure. Either way, you’ll wind up with a great cut and style, since they are both skilled stylists with careful attention to detail.

Do not go to Shonnie! If you are trying to go blonde you will save yourself at least $ 150. She messed up my hair and wants to try to fix it. Only a crazy person would go back to her to fix it! The company is cute, everyone is friendly, but Shonnie is not buisness savvy. I have to go to someone who knows what they are doing to fix my hair and pay who knows how much (it depends on the damage that’s been done to my hair).

This place is awesome! The vibe you get from the moment you walk through is as if you are chilling with your girlfriends. I love it, they never cease to put a smile on my face.
My go to girl at Salon Styletto is Miss Shonnie and she does my hair fabulously! I always walk out of there feeling like a movie star:) I’ve had many bad experiences with other places cutting my hair wrong and always cutting too much, but this place gets it right.
I normally don’t layer my hair because I’m not a big fan of it, but I recently got a dye job at another place that damaged the crap out of my ends that getting layers was a must if I didn’t want to lose too much of my length. So I went and did it, and it looked amazing and the layers look so natural! I’ve only been here twice but I’m definitely gonna keep coming back:)

This place is fun, cute, and quaint. Erica is my stylist and is fun, friendly, and listens to what you want. Erica kept true to the haircut i always like, but added some modern touches and i have been getting so many compliments! the girls all have cute hair and are nice. def. my new place to have my hair cut.

Love, love, looooove this place!
Tasha and Tani are badass stylists! I’ve been going to tasha for awhile now and i always leave feeling like a million bucks. If you’re looking for a place that is good with edgier styles, salon stiletto is for you! :)

When I was in town visiting my good friend Christopher I told him I wanted to get my hair done because I needed a change. I had just moved back to the US from the UK where I only let someone at Tony and Guy cut my split ends and nothing else. I don’t trust hairstylists because the same person cut my hair my entire life up until I moved. So he sent me to his friend Tasha…
Tasha was amazing. I showed her a picture of how I wanted my hair and after we chatted for a few moments, she got to work. She always checked in with me to see how I was doing and it was much appreciated. My hair came out exactly like the picture and I was so happy that to this day I tell people it was one of the best haircuts I’ve ever had.
I wish that Tasha was located in San Francisco because shortly after my glorious time in her chair, I returned to my native land here in the bay area where I proceeded to get the worst haircut of my life.
5 stars for this awesome salon!

I have challenging hair to cut and have gone though a lot of hairstylists trying to find someone to give me a consistently good haircut. Well no luck until I found Tasha
WOW!
She has cut my hair five or six times now and I get a great cut and fabulous color every time.
I found her through Unilocal and read the reviews about not getting calls back, but I was determined to check her out so I waited until we finally connected.
I found out later that it’s just her and another girl in the salon and they don’t stop cutting your hair to answer the phone – which I must say I enjoy – and it also keeps overhead down so that they don’t have to charge an arm and a leg for haircut and color. Now I just book an appointment every six weeks– no phone calls necessary. :-)
So if you’re having a hard time getting a call back, keep trying or stop by, Tasha is well worth the trouble.

This salon is barely visible to the naked eye, but it’s directly across the street from the 76 gas station on La Mesa Blvd. So being knowledgeable of this salon’s existence is mostly word of mouth.

I came in as a walk-​in on a Wednesday afternoon and Tany was able to start on me right away. She was great at listening to what I wanted and in addition to my cut, washed, gave me side bangs, and beautifully styled my hair for the rest of the day with no additional cost. She also mentioned if I wanted a quick trim on my bangs to come in and she’ll fix them up for free! I was really happy with the outcome of my cut returning for a fix wasn’t even necessary.
Since I’ve been, only two stylists work there, Tany and the owner.
Salon Styletto isn’t just for the ladies though, Tany cuts guys’ hair too!

I had a great experience at Styletto’s today. I was looking for a new salon because my sister-​in-​law used to cut my hair but moved away. I didn’t want to pay too much, since I’m used to getting it all done for free ;)
I made a call for an appointment the day of. I was greeted at the door by my stylist, Brittany. She was very friendly and very professional. She asked me what I wanted and gave me exactly what I asked for.
My cut is fabulous, the color looks great and she offered to fix anything if I went home and washed it a few times and found it wasn’t what I wanted.
The best thing was that Brittany did an AWESOME job washing my hair. I know it sounds funny but you all know how it feel so good to have someone else wash your hair. Well, it was like a mini scalp massage!
I will definitely be going back. The prices are affordable, the salon was really clean and the staff was really nice.

Salon Styletto has just opened a new salon … their first official one that is…
It’s so amazing because:
It feels really cozy, like the vibe is like you are hanging out in your friend’s livingroom BUT it still looks like a nice little salon.
everyone that works there is so nice, friendly, real, and down to earth, while still able to give you amazing «hip» haircuts and such.
haircuts and color are way way cheaper here than any other «hip» salon … they are like nice neighborhood salon meets «urban» salon …
you have to go try it :)
oh also right now they have a two for one special so if you bring a friend, it’s like buy one get one free… tell them i sent you and this could possibly extend the special for longer… hopefully. lol
