Sono Bellezza Rejuvenation Studio

Lisa always goes the extra mile with both my daughter and I. When we leave her studio we always feel so «pretty»! Her makeup line is a must… from the tinted primer to the c-​kiss lip moisture. Excellent service.

I moved to Northern California a few months ago after living in Newport Beach for fifteen years. I was in dire need of a roots touch-​up and I Unilocaled to find a hair salon. I came across with this salon and their reviews were great so I took a chance. Then, I met Sean. After a brief chat about my situation, I nicely offered him the color formula that I requested from my former hairdresser of 10 years. He willingly examined it and gave me a great hair color. Not only is Sean a highly skilled hairstylist, he is also a very pleasant person and a lot of fun to talk to. I am extremely pleased with his services and will go back once a month to get my roots done. I highly recommend his services.

This is my second review for Coco –we’ve had a crazy year and a cross-​state obsession that led to me finding her again in Calfiornia!
I met Coco last year while I was working in Utah — she blew me away with her color skills! In the land of the blondes (seriously — go to Utah, SO MANY BLONDES it makes LA look tame) she gave me an amazing shade of brown red that I to this day get compliments on! She’s always so upbeat and provides outstanding no-​pressure consultation and product recommendations. I especially appreciate that she «gets» my hair routine (or lack of one) — and is the first stylist to really give me a cut that works with my frizzy mess of a mop if I straighten it or let it go «au natural».
When Coco left Utah to move to the Bay Area I was devastated and tried out a couple different people but no one quite was able to work her magic (even with the exact Redken color code!) So I was thrilled when I was transferred BACK to the Bay Area and a little research turned her up at Sono Bellezza! One session and she un-​did the nasty color, got my cut perfect again and thoroughly enjoyed gabbing and swapping puppy pics! Coco is now also a TEACHER at the Redken school in Westgate — it says a lot that she’s teaching the next generation of colorist/​stylists!
The salon itself is very cute! Lots of light and everyone is very warm and welcoming — it was easy to be at ease!
Her partner in crime Sean is also AMAZING — either way if you’re looking for a perfect cut/​color you CAN NOT go wrong with these two!

Fellas, do yourself a favor and make an appointment with Sean. He really knows what he’s doing and has his finger on the pulse of the latest trends. I’ve been missing my old stylist since moving here a few months ago. I’m happy to report that the search is over!

Sean not only knows what to do with my hair and gets the color and cut right, but he gives an amazing head massage during shampoo!

Thanks to a recommendation I came here to get a makeup trial run with Lisa Cagliostro and wow did she blow me away! The makeup she did for me not only looked great but felt great too. I love that her style of makeup is natural looking yet still glam. She used the Bellezza primer and that alone made me look 10x better. The mink eyelashes finished the look perfectly and they are actually comfortable for falsies. I love that Lisa explained everything that she was using on me and how to apply it myself so that I could duplicate the look. I am so excited for her to do my makeup again Tuesday for a photoshoot! If you want your makeup done right with makeup that won’t ruin your skin, then go see Lisa!

I’m always amazed at how my hair looks after every visit. Ask for Lisa — colour, hair extensions etc. I’ve had my hair done in most cities around the world and delighted I finally found a stylist of international calibre here in Silicon Valley. I’ve struggled to find a decent place. Before coming here I used to get my hair done in the city. The salon also has a natural make-​up line — love going to get my hair done and purchase my make-​up at the same time. The primer and foundation are lovely.
Definitely, recommend this salon for women who like a more sophisticated, city look done by a professional stylist. 5 star rating.

I love Lisa Cagliostro! She’s great with color, straightening, extensions, makeup, the whole gamut! Her pricing is good as well and she has a comfortable environment. Lisa is very knowledgeable in what she does. She has a good eye, listens to your needs and communicates well. She’s also prompt and detail oriented. Lisa is passionate about her work and I’d recommend her to anyone.

I went into Sono Bellezza because my boyfriend won a free makeup consultation and a gift certificate. I went in not knowing exactly what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised!!! Lisa Cagliostro showed me how to apply liner, bronzer, and highlighter properly. She helped teach me how to go from a day to a night look. She used a bunch of different products on me to show me how each give a different look (which was AWESOME)! She gave me two printouts to take home as a guide to do each look on my own. After the makeup was done, she started playing with my a hair a bit to show me a fun ways to put it up, and even though she was just messing with it, it looked great! So she took me to her station and quickly put it up for me!
Lisa went above and beyond for me. She took the time to help me understand what she was doing, and she worked with me to make sure I was able to go home with everything I wanted! (She made sure to check for sale items, and helped crunch the numbers for different variations). This was a truly great experience! Lisa was AMAZING with me! I can’t wait to go back!

This is the first time I’ve come here and after having gone to so many different
places and through so many different hairdressers, I was skeptical to say the least but was very pleasantly surprised. Tiffany listened to all of my requests and tribulations on stripping the black (on top of black on top of multiple other colors) and getting as close to my natural light brown as possible WITHOUT harsh chemicals and/​or bleach. I didn’t think it was possible nor likely I would get any black out this way but she was very patient and (after only talking to my briefly on the phone once before) scheduled me as her last client so she could take as much time as needed to do it right.
I can’t believe how close to my natural golden brown she got my hair after so many years of permanent colors, treatments and bleach.
Not only that but every other staff member that walked by was very sweet and two even helped when they didn’t have a client in the chair. Not to mention the décor is gorgeous and the location can’t be beat for a great salon in Los Gatos that isn’t downtown.
I’ll definitely be coming back for anything I need.

I first went to Sono Bellezza because I had a Livingsocial deal. I got a haircut and a keratin treatment. It is always nerve racking to go to a new salon, because no one wants a bad haircut! Luckily, I loved my results and got a million compliments!
Tiffany was my stylist for that appointment and I have been going to her ever since! I use her for hair cuts, hair treatments and even spray tans. I’ve been really happy with all of the services I’ve received at Sono Bellezza.
Beside the great styling I’ve gotten there, what really made me love this salon was that Tiffany always remembered me and was super friendly and easy to talk to. When I walk in to the salon, I get a warm smile from everyone who works there and feel really welcome. It’s so nice to go to a high-​end salon where the people are actually nice as well!
My only complaint is that I can never remember how to spell «sono bellezza» when I want to google it so I can make an appointment! :) Problem solved: I programmed it into my phone.

Here’s my short version:
Don’t come here. Extremely poor hair service, and even worse customer service. I tried twice to get in touch with the salon about the questionable service, but never heard back at all. That seemed pretty unprofessional.
Here’s the long version:
I came in with the Living Social deal for the Keratin Treatment or Brazilian Blowout. When I arrived and was asked which treatment I would be getting, I replied definitely the Brazilian Blowout. I’d had the BB twice before at other salons (and loved it!), but had been very unhappy with the result of a keratin treatment I’d previously tried, and explained this to the stylist (Tiffany, the owner’s daughter) at the time. During the consultation (even though I said I didn’t need one), Tiffany continued to try to convince me to get a keratin treatment instead of the brazilian blowout. Trying to give her credit as the hair care professional, I asked her to give me the pros and cons for each. According to her, the keratin treatment was better for the health of my hair than the Brazilian, would create more fullness than the Brazilian, and my hair would stay straighter for longer. I mistakenly went along with it.
Not until after she had started applying the product to my hair was I informed that I would not be able to put my hair up for 3 days (during the consultation while discussing Pros & Cons would have been a good time to mention this, I think…). Although the release explained that I shouldn’t wash my hair, that is very different from being able to pull it back or pin it up. This was a HUGE problem for me as I am employed as a swim instructor. I stand in the shallow end and don’t get my hair wet– but only because I could pull my long hair up. I couldn’t believe that the stylist had not informed me of this prior to beginning the treatment. I had to emergency cancel all of my swim lessons over the next 2 days– over $ 400 of lost income for me. I followed the stylists advice and had an express trim, tipped her, and hoped it would all be worth it in the end.
My disappointment continued when even after the very first washing (using a Kenra sulfate-​free formula) there were sections of hair that were considerably NOT smooth or straight. And definitely not the full, healthy feel of the Brazilian. from the start my hair felt lifeless & dull. In less than 4 weeks, only the very ends of my hair were not completely back to a frizzy/​wavy/​curly state, and in worse condition than before the treatment. I feel that I was unprofessionally and dishonestly convinced to use a product other than the one I had originally requested and have been very disappointed with the results.
I have never written a complaint to a business before (and this is my first negative online review ever!), but was so disappointed by the service, and especially because I felt like I’d been intentionally misled, that I wrote to the salon not once, but twice (about a month apart) but never heard back from them. Apparently, they did get my communications though because since then I’ve been on their mailing list. (Seriously??)
As an interesting note, while I was in the salon I heard the receptionist and owner talking about a meeting with a representative from Unite (the brand of my awful keratin treatment). I’ve wondered if they have a business relationship that gives them extra incentive to talk clients into the Unite treatment over the more well-​known Brazilian Blowout. But that’s just a guess.

Each and every time I visit Lisa for a haircut or color or highlights, I ALWAYS walk out of there looking like a million bucks. She knows her hair, that’s for sure. The prices are competitive/​reasonable. Easy location right off Los Gatos Blvd next to Edible Arrangements (you may have to park in back). I have been going to Lisa for over a year, and I can honestly say that I have been 100% pleased. Thanks Lisa and staff, keep up the fantastico styling!

Last weekend just got my hair colored and I wanted a really fun color so I went with a dark purple all over and purple highlights. I TOTALLY love the color! Tanya rocks! She really knows color and always listens to what I want.

i purchased a brazillian blowout treatment on living social and it was the worst mistake. This salon nearly cancelled my appointment at the last minute and then asked the stylist to come in even though she had a urinary tract infection. so, i felt really bad, but had already waited months to get the appointment. I asked several times if the treatment would take out my curl and she said it wouldn’t although it may relax the curl some. well, my hair is straight as a stick and won’t hold curl at all. it is so flat to my head with no volume even after 2 months.
I actually complained and they offered to bring me back in and fix it. The manager said the previous stylist had put too much treatment in my hair and left it in for too long. so, They suppossedly stripped the treatment out and put something else on it, but my hair is still flat and broken. what were they thinking doing this treatment on someone with hair as fine as mine?!
except for lisa, the staff are lame. would NOT reccomend this place.

I’ve been seeing Tania for years. She does what i ask and I’ve never had a problem. She knows her stuff and does it well.

This is such a beautiful space! I intially came in because I had used a friends lip gloss that was so incredible I had to have it right away!!! She had gotten here at Sono Bellezza. When I went to pick one up, I then discovered they had their own full make-​up line just for the spa. Lisa, the founder/​head stylist was so wonderful, knowledgable and patient with me :) I had so many questions and she took me through the entire line with such grace and passion.
She showed me many new products I’ve never seen in other make up lines, and I cant wait to share them will all my friends! Beyond the amazing lip gloss, Im now in love with the mineral illuminator wand that instantly brightened my eyes– and the tinted sunscreen is the best Ive ever come across! Im so excited to have found her and her make-​up.
I had such a great time I also booked an appointment to do my hair, and I love they also offered teeth whitening services at the spa! If you wanna get beautiful and pampered this is definately the place to go! Thank you Lisa!
