Michael Gilliatt Hair

I moved to San Diego from the East Coast where I had a hairdresser who gave me amazing Coppola Keratin treatments that lasted and lasted. My first experience out here with the treatment was sub par; it lasted a few weeks and then the frizzy curls were back.
I found Michael and made an appointment. My husband asked me after I had the treatment if I thought it was «the real sh*t». Well… turns out this was the real sh*t. I left with frizz-​free, loose waves that required no styling after a shower. I was so happy with my treatment. 5 months later I just came back from my second treatment and am even happier than I was the first time.
I highly recommend MG Hair for a Coppola Keratin treatment.

A long time client, Michael is a stylist extraordinaire! Professional, affordable and she knows how to cut and color naturally curly hair-​score! A regular swimmer, Michael’s suggestions to match my lifestyle got me the perfect short halo cut. Her product line and private, secure space makes the perfect backdrop for some much needed me time.

«Michael owns my hair.» — I tell everyone this!
Before Michael owned my hair, I was without a stylist and colorist for years hopping around from one salon to the next with no consistent results and really average hair.
Now, my friends tell me I look FABULOUS!
And others stop me at events telling me my hair looks AMAZING.
** This is what Michael does, she transforms your natural hair into a beautiful –spectacular — natural and improved you! **
What my hair is naturally:
— Fine & thin dirty blonde with red tones with the occasional frizz to complete the look.
What Michael does to my hair:
— I have a subtle a-​line bob with blonde highlights that frames my square face perfectly.
–She also has managed my own hair tweaks and has taught me how to style the few difficult strands.
–For the frizz: She’s uses a Keratin treatment every so often to tame those annoying wild hairs.
Along with fabulous hair, you also enter a RELAXING and private salon. Michael listens and also provides great advise and honest conversation from hair to living a truly balanced life.
Michael is a true gem!

My wife goes here. She loves Michael and her hair always looks great when she comes home. She has been seeing Michael for five years. Michael did her hair for our wedding a few years ago and my wife looked beautiful.

Michael is AMAZING! She truly loves what she does and you can see it In her work. She pays attention to every detail, giving you the best quality service. I would recommend her to anyone! So next time you are wondering where to get your haircut, just give her a call!

Michael is AMAZING! I have short hair and get bored easily. This means there is constant change and I get a haircut every 5 weeks. I have never been disappointed. Her knowledge shows through with each cut and color. I feel she really listens to her clients and strives for the best possible outcome EVERY time. If she’s not happy or you’re not happy, she won’t let you leave. It’s great that she remembers my little hair «quirks» and works with all of my neuroses.
Not to mention, she’s also a fun and interesting person (which helps when you’re stuck in a chair for an hour+).

I’ve been going to Michael for a few years and I always leave feeling relaxed and beautiful. She is talented, professional, and always gives me good advice about my hair. I am very particular and often indecisive about my hair — Michael just listens and comes up with creative and practical ideas for my low/​no maintenance style. She takes her time to make sure I always leave looking great — no dye spots on my skin, perfect color and cut every time. I’ve followed her to a new salon and also had her do my hair and makeup for my wedding. Not only is she stylish and professional, but a sweet person too.

Have been going to Michael for over 5 years now, and I can’t imagine ever going to see anyone else. She is an amazing stylist and color expert, even fixing the green, yes, green!, hair I had when I first came to her. But just as important is who she is… a warm, patient, and sweet person who is easy to talk to and thoughtful and caring. I’m really happy I found her and strongly recommend her services.

I’ve been with Michael for the past several years and I have never left with a less then perfect haircut. Before Michael, I had tried out several different places in the area and had always been disappointed for different reasons. Since working with Michael, I’ve never felt better about my hair. And it shows in reactions from friends as well. I never get the reaction of «yeah, it’s OK… you should go here.» She really takes time and lets you know she’s not going through the motions. There is genuine care and passion in what she does. And for someone like me who decides to call for a cut last minute, she is always extremely accommodating and gets me in as soon as possible. The thought of going elsewhere for a haircut has never crossed my mind and I expect to follow her in any salon changes.

I have been with Michael for at least 3 years and will follow her wherever she goes if at all humanly possible. She is a consummate professional with great attention to detail. She listens, but also advises with an eye for what is current and what is best for the client. She never rushes through a haircut, making sure that everything is exactly as you want it. I have never had color done, but reading the other reviews here nudges me all the closer to going for it! I have had several people ask me who does my hair and I have always felt confident passing on Michaels information. One of my regular customers is now also a happy client of hers. Cheers to Michael and the perfect cut!

Had an appointment on the 20^th… LOVE. LOVE, LOVE the color and the haircut. She really made me feel more like a billion bucks than a Penni. I know my jokes are juvenile… but …so what!

Michael is Simply the Best!
I am extremely picky and particular about my hair! I don’t let just any one cut or color it. I have been to quite a few stylist in my time and I can honestly say that Michael Gilliatt is one of the best! I must have 110% trust in my stylist and thankfully, I have found this in Michael. She always takes her time with me and never makes me feel rushed. She really listens to what I want and never over does it. She always gives me her honest and professional opinion on any suggestions I may have. J Stila Salon has a lot of charm and style. All the stylist are always very friendly and make me feel welcome. Call Michael (619−867−8040). You will be happy you did and you will not be disappointed.
