Dez Salon

Dez was amazing, I would highly recommend her!
My mom has been going to her for about two years and she’s always been raving about what a great job she does.
I was really nervous because I had never dyed my hair or had highlights, but I felt like a change.
I showed her pictures of what I wanted, balayage highlights, something natural, sun kissed. She really listened to me and did EXACTLY what I wanted, and it looks amazing!
And as the other reviews said, she is really sweet and really fun to talk to, it really seems like she cares about her customers.
I highly recommend going over to her, she is really nice, amazingly good at her job as a stylist and her prices are super reasonable. Definitely worth it, I will go back every time I need something else, whether it’s a haircut or a new color.
Thanks Dez!

Dez is amazing! She really listens to what you want and just enhances whatever you had in mind. My hair cuts and colors had never looked so good, I keep getting compliments from others saying my hair had never looked so good. The best part is that her prices are reasonable! She is a blessing to the San Carlos community.

My daughter has been going to Dez and referred me to the salon. I’ve been going to another salon for over 15 yrs but couldn’t get an appt. anytime soon. I was reluctant to try someone new. Thankfully, Dez did a great job and listened to my request without going too short. Will be going back again for my next cut and would highly recommend her!

I purchased a Groupon for Dez Salon for a cut and full color. She took the time to understand what I wanted my hair to look like and I was very happy with the results. I was surprised how much time she spent doing the thin highlights I wanted.
I was so pleased with the way my hair turned out that I scheduled another appointment with her for three months out. Once I got to the salon it was like I had just seen her. She has an amazing memory and is fun to chat with. This visit she did partial highlights, a deep conditioning, and a haircut. Again I was happy with the results.
After she cuts my hair it styles so easily and looks very healthy. I am super lazy when it comes to hair maintenance and styling so I appreciate how easy she makes it. I will be back to see her towards the end of August so that she can cut and color my hair before my wedding. I know that she will make mu hair look beautiful for my special day!
I know that I am in good hands with D and I will continue to go to her for all things hair related. She is great at what she does. I don’t think this review does her justice. She is amazing and everyone should go to her if they want to love their hair!

AMAZING!!! D is the absolute best! I have been going to her for almost three years now to get my Brazilian Blowout and she always delivers! Best prices in the Bay Area, super nice and attentive! The salon is also private, so you get a Very intimate and calm environment. Need a blow out touched up? Want to try it out? GO TO DEZ SALON!!! You will not be sorry!

I was getting my hair done in the East Bay prior to finding Dez Salon. was getting a wee bit tired of making the trek since I live in San Carlos. One day I came across Dez Salon on Unilocal and thought I would give it try. I am so glad I did! I am honored to consider Miss D a friend and will tell you first hand that she is dedicated to your full satisfaction. Hard to find that these days!
Thank you

Thank you D I love my hair :) so happy I found you and your salon. Great location, lots of parking, nice and clean salon. D gives great advise. She takes time to listen to you and does her best to make your hair look it’s very best.

Where have you been my whole life?
I’m one of those ppl who came in for a haircut & found a friend in Dee. I dunno about you, but I used to dread haircuts more than I dreaded dentists b/​c so many stylists are unctuous, their flattery untrue. But Dee is genuine & simpatico. Time flies in her little salon. Sometimes I spent the whole day here for a color job, raging a full-​blown episode of DECIDEOPHOBIA, other times I’m in and out in just 30 minutes for a quick trim. No matter what I do, I always feel comfortable with her results. No muss, no fuss.
She is very non-​judging. I can always ask her to do a little more here, or be careful of my lopsided head there. (Bet cha really want to see my picture now, dont you?) You have no idea how many hairdressers intimidate me. It’s like they’re the star & I’m expected to (air) kiss their feet.
With Dee it’s really effortless. I just bring in some pictures, tell her the 7 things I «must have» for my cut (I do), and voila!
How bad do I get?
— Absolutely no bangs, but side-​swept airy layers that still allow me to see where I’m going
— short in the back, without exposing too much neck
— the sides have to flatter my face
— I want an overall shape of an upside down teardrop, without blow drying
— my head is not perfect, so she has to texture one side more than the other to make the result look even
— I want luscious layers, while it’s actually thinned out to minimize maintenance
— no mullet
— age appropriate
— Green? Or red?
Would THAT wear you out? She happily chips away, and I bounce out the door eager to be seen :) That isn’t not something I’d do everyday …
ps. As if you really need a reason to look your best, you can help the 3+ year drought by saving some w.a.t.e.r — by keeping it trimmed :)

Dee deserves more stars!!! I first met her when her shop opened. I lived nearby and took one of her flyers. I made an appointment and have been coming back for over two years now! She always fits me in and I never leave her shop dissappointed. She always gives me tips on hair care, what’s new and works. The shop has a friendly, positive atmosphere. If you want to feel like a million bucks and then some, get your hair done at Dez Salon!!!

Ms D did a great job on my Brazilian Blowout and at a very reasonable price. She is a nice lady and I recommend her salon highly. My hair looks great and I’m so glad that I had it done.

My college-​student daughter found this salon on Groupon and used the last of her summer money to pay for it. She was very excited to have her hair highlighted since it had been a really long time since she had had highlights and made her appointment for the next time she was home from school. She even had pictures with her to show at her appointment as she wanted to go lighter than she had before.
To begin with, my daughter had (let me stress HAD) undamaged, beautiful and thick very light brunette hair before her appointment. The salon lady informed my daughter she was using a new technique in highlighting her hair. (I am not quite sure what that means.) However, after the «highlighting» was over, she washed her hair many, many times with different products. I am assuming she was using toner. Meanwhile, she told my daughter her hair would probably break as it was very unhealthy and thin and that she needed to take better care of her hair. Then she went a step further and scared my daughter by telling her her hair was even going to FALL OUT. She actually said, «Women’s hair is her crown» or something to that effect. In between the washing or toning or whatever she was doing, my daughter was stuck under heat lamps. Finally she sat my daughter in front of the mirror to reveal her new blond highlights that were actually a brilliant shade of ORANGE. The salon lady even said, «I know this isn’t the color you wanted but the cut will make up for it.» She also said that after a few washings, the color would get better. NOPE. She still has very orange highlights.
I felt so badly for my daughter, who at this point was heartbroken, that I called my salon and spoke to my hairdresser and ultimately made an appointment to try and fix the damage this woman did.
I know she has GREAT reviews, (which is why my daughter purchased the Groupon), but I also know she did a royal screw-​up on my daughter’s hair. How dare you screw up her hair by over processing it and cover it up by insinuating it was her fault all along??? I would NEVER trust her or her salon again. STAY FAR AWAY!

Ms D gave me one of the best cuts I’ve had in a long time! She really listened to what I wanted and asked a lot of questions before and during the cut. I have fine hair that has an unruly wave and she knew how to work with it so it ended up with clean defined lines. I also liked the tranquil little salon and the soothing green décor. She’s a humble and down to earth person and I felt comfortable and cared for the entire time I was there. It was like visiting an old friend who just happened to give me a great cut.

Ms D. was amazing! I bought the Groupon and I could not have been happier when I left. I called in first with several questions and Ms. D was more than happy to answer them all and made it VERY easy for me to schedule a time to come in with my busy schedule. She let me text pictures of my hair and she was extremely knowledgable as to what she thought I should do before I even came in. She gave me a great trim with beautiful layers, fixed all my dead ends with her deep conditioner, color corrected my old highlights and gave me a few new ones to frame my face. She knew exactly what to do and I would HIGHLY recommend her. She was also very, very pleasant to talk to as well– I’m DEFINITELY going back! =)

I found this shop on Groupon and (like others) was going to purchase the $ 35 haircut and deep conditioning. When I called to make the appointment she said to skip buying the Groupon and told me she’d honor the price (Turns out vendors have to forfeit 50% of their profits to Groupon, can you believe that?! Ridiculous). I recommend asking to skip Groupon, so the $ goes straight to her!
Anyway, Ms. D was super nice, took her time on my hair and listened exactly for what I wanted. I walked out looking and feeling so much been than when I’d arrived. The only downside is that my layers turned out a bit choppy and aren’t blended well in some areas, but I think they’ll look better after a few weeks of growth.

I am very happy that I bought a Groupon. Now I know Dez Salon. The owner is nice, friendly and you are in very food hands with her. She helped me with the choice of my new haircut and color. I am not disappointed at all! I will come back again, even without Groupon. thanks a lot!

I came in with a groupon for a deep conditioning and hair cut. I had an absolutely wonderful experience. She took her time to get it right and I came out looking adorable! I will be back!

Mrs. D was super accommodating with my appointment. She actually called me earlier than her opening time, so that I could leave on time to pick up my daughter from school. She spent a lot of time on my hair paying attention to the details. I had come in for a haircut and highlights and made another appointment for brazilian blowout. She is very friendly and does a great job. I have no idea why another Unilocaler has given her a bad review as her prices are exceptionally reasonable and she is very helpful.

I decided to purchase a deal off of groupon, $ 35 for a deep conditioning treatment and haircut which is too good to pass up (unless your hair stylist has no idea what they’re doing). but I am so glad I did! Ms. D was so sweet and knowledgable. She made sure I got exactly the haircut I wanted, and I was so pleased with it. I’ve had multiple people mess up my bangs, and I’ve walked out of salons crying. I did just the opposite with Dez Salon.
I highly recommend Ms. D, both the price & service are right! Help a small local shop get more business (because she deserves it).

Called today with a groupon. She asked me several questions that seemed like she was trying to make me pay more $. The last question was how long my hair was. I told her it was past my shoulders and she told me that because of the length of my hair I would have to pay $ 25 extra. I’ve never had a hair salon tell me that. My hair is not that long! Needless to say, I didn’t make an appointment with her.

Oh Mrs. D … I am now the biggest fan of you!
Few days ago, I was checking groupon and found this place. Dez salon was offering the great deal of haircuts+treatment+partial highlights for less than $ 60 at the time! I went to Unilocal immediately, and decided to give a try to this place. As I am new to this area, I had been giving try to many of hair salons since I moved from SF, but no place satisfied me until I walked in Dez Salon.
Mrs.D was obviously experienced, professional and knows everything about hairs. Although I had pretty difficult taste about my hair style (especially about the length of my bangs!), she understood everything and gave me the perfect hair cuts.
What surprised me the most was her highlights technic! I used to get highlights only when I get back to Tokyo with my favorite hair stylist as I noticed that the most of American hairstylists give me too outstanding/​artificial highlights and it doesn’t fit my needs since I moved to US.
However, Mrs. D did such a sensitive work for my hair. The color was subtle and natural, and it make my hair looks even shining! That was exactly what I was looking for!
I can’t actually still believe the price I paid for such a greatest work.
I used to pay double price for just getting OKAY haircut in the same area…
I am so happy I finally find MY HAIR STYLIST.
If you are looking for the skillful stylist for your sensitive needs,
This place is highly recommended: D
