Silk Salon

Came here in a rush to get my sons hair cut and my wife’s eye brows waxed. The lady that cut my sons hair was very patient with my son and took her time to do a good job. It came out really nice. My wife’s eye brows came out great as well. Can’t rely on Unilocal all the time.

Michelle does great highlights. I have been going to her for years now and her work is excellent. I recommend Michelle.

I have been coming here since 2 years and they have got my hair cut right every time. I have tried a few other places which are more expensive however I was not satisfied. Silk Salon gets it right for me.

Michelle is a great stylist! She’s been doing my moms hair for over 7 years & does an excellent job. She gives great tips on how to care for your hair & styling. Ask for Michelle!

if you care about your appearance… do not let the old lady touch your hair

I’m a guy and I’ve been coming here for over two years because of the price.
Over the past year, I’ve noticed a lot of turnover with the staff and quality’s been steadily trending downward with each visit. I get basic, buzz cuts which shouldn’t be all that difficult, but I’ve left with haircuts that are uneven, with random strands of hair sticking up, etc.
I think it’s time for me to start spending money on a real hair stylist instead of skimming with $ 8 haircuts.

I am very disappointed in this place, after being a loyal customer of this place for the last 5 years, I have finally realized that the people who work here and the owner Michelle is very racist. They give priority to Asian clients. Even with an appointment we have been made to wait several time for periods over ½ an hour. Yes the place is cheap, but you also get what you pay for. If you are looking for good service, go elsewhere.

People only come here because it is Cheap. They have poor service and wait time is long. 15 minutes turned into 30 minutes into saying another 5 min. Total wait time was 47 minutes with no on ahead of me! Instead of cutting my hair she was busy mixing some powder perm stuff. Horrible horrible. Mediocre haircuts too, I showed them a picture of what I wanted, he lady took a half a second glance and gave me something different.
I would not come here again.

Great place for hot oil treatments.

This is where we got our hair cuts for over two years. It’s a great value ($ 8 for men’s cut, $ 15 for women’s cut for those with short hair, and $ 5 for a nice, long shampoo, which pretty much includes a good scalp massage), BUT there are definitely things to beware of.
First and foremost, we recommend making an appointment with Hai. We’ve had bad experiences with everyone else here. It seems Unilocalers rave about Michelle, but when Michelle did the first female haircut, it was not good. It was uneven and shorter than asked. From then on, we stuck with Hai and she never let us down. Hai always kept her appointments and took her time with us no matter how many other walk-​ins were waiting, huffing and puffing. She is such a nice, sweet person. Some of the other hairstylists here can be pretty salty.
Also, remember that English is not her first language, so if you don’t speak Vietnamese, be specific and clear about what you want. If you only want a trim and are afraid she might cut it too short, make sure you express it by saying just a little, little bit and showing a very small amount with your fingers.
Their hair products are always on sale, too. They carry nice brands, including Crew for men.
We highly suggest making an appointment because the patrons here can get pretty unruly as we often witnessed, especially on one particularly bizarre afternoon. But that’s another story entirely.
It’s not a swanky salon or anything, but we would make the drive out because we knew we could trust Hai.

I went to this salon because of the good review from Unilocal.I specifically ask for Michelle for the hair cut.
I was so satisfied, I came back over and over again. I think I’ve been there 6 – 8 times in the last 2 years. I came for haircut and highlights. I’m always satisfied with her service. She knows how to make my hair better…

Ok, had gotten my nails done nearby, and thought I could use a haircut too. So I went to Silk Salon. My mistake.
I walked in and the three stylists were busy with customers and I was told «you have to wait, but it won’t be very long», yeah. So, sit there I did, with nothing but an old TV Guide to read. And I sat as the dad of one of the customers came in the shop, complained about his daughter’s cut costing $ 20 instead of the $ 8 that is posted outside the shop. He was miffed, but when told the $ 8 cut was for men, he decided to have his hair cut too. So, he was immediately seated for his cut.
I waited for 40 minutes all told, and not once was I given any attention whatsoever, and I was the only person waiting to be served. I tried to make eye contact with the stylist who said my wait wouldn’t be long, but she absolutely would not look at me.
These ladies should learn basic manners and customer service, after 40 minutes wasted, I got up and walked out. Not a word from any of the stylists.
There are many good salons, and to be treated in this manner is just not what anyone would want to endure.
UGH!

I don’t usually step into random salons especially for a haircut, but I had plenty of time to spare since my phone was being repaired nearby. I should’ve known not to just walk in a random «Asian Salon» (sorry, ya’ll know what I mean!). Anywho, I specifically asked for just a TRIM, and I got like 4 inches cut off my hair! I noticed the hair stylist just kept cutting away but could not really see what she was doing since she was kneeling down in back of me while cutting my hair. She said she was just «thinning» it out, next thing you know all my long hair was gone. Yes it looked and felt healthier, but I was completely dissatisfied since I kept telling her I don’t want short hair since my hair grows so slow! Sorry, won’t be robbing me ever again for a $ 20 haircut that I did not even like or asked for!
& I showed it by leaving no tip!

I wish Unilocal would have a filter for reviews by gender. It would help us guys in the search for a good chop in a female dominated area.
Can’t expect too much for such a great price for a men’s haircut. I’ve been coming here for years and I know it is a good value.
I wanted something a bit more stylish and after being a regular for a few years, I’ve concluded I need to go elsewhere for something more stylish. I still stand behind my comment about Michelle and her employees being good friendly people. Just keep in mind about the value based men’s haircuts here.

After reading my review about New Elite Salon, a dear friend of mine recommended I try Silk Salon. He said to ask for Michelle as his wife just loves her work. So a couple of months ago, I give Michelle a try and lo and behold, she does the job… and she does it well. Granted, I didn’t write a review then, but I probably would’ve given her 3 – 4 stars.
Today, I decided to go back to Michelle to get a trim. That’s right… a trim. WTF?! I said to trim it, not cut almost 4 – 5 inches off! And I wanted my bangs TRIMMED… why did she cut it above the eyebrows?! I don’t have a face for «straight bangs»…homegirl needs it side-​swept! Needless to say, I think I look horrible! I was teary eyed on the drive home and as much as my husband tells me it looks fine, *I* am not happy with it! To top it off, last time I was there, I was charged $ 15…today, $ 30. All because, so I was told, that she «styled» it!
Ugh. I wish I can give her 0 star.

After a bad experience with a ghetto cheap salon, I decided to take a chance with Michelle to fix my hair mess.
I called for an appointment, bonus point for opening on Sundays. Upon arrival, Michelle promptly seated me and asked how I like my hair done. I told her upfront that I had a bad experience and wanted to fix it up, so it looks natural and requires minimal maintenance. She took the time to understand what worked for me and did a great job on my hair.
Price is very reasonable: shampoo, cut, blow-​dry, style for $ 25+ tip. Another bonus point when other customers compliment on your new hair-​do!
Michelle knows her stuff, can’t speak for the other ladies though. For the recession friendly price and quality service with Michelle, I’ll be back!

I decided to go to Silk to have my hair dyed dark brown, since my hair was pretty blond I figured wherever I decided to go, they couldn’t mess up. Michelle sure proved me wrong. I picked out the brown that I wanted, asked if it was red-​based (so my hair wouldn’t turn green when it faded), she said yes. Cool.
I sat down for about 15 minutes until a lady came and slathered my head, ears, and neck with petroleum jelly. Kinda gross. After the lady put color in my hair I sat there staring at myself in the mirror (there wasn’t a magazine at the station, nor did anyone offer me one) I noticed the color looked really red. When I asked Michelle, she said «it’s gonna look really nice. it’s red-​brown.» …WTF? I told her I wanted a chocolaty brown and she insisted «when I wash it out, it will look really nice, something different.» I didn’t ask for «different» just plain old BROWN.
What felt like days later when she washed out the color and dried my hair, the results: Red-​ish, purple, black. Not what I wanted. «It looks really nice on you.» She commented, that’s great that it looks nice, but not what I wanted.
When I told her I really didn’t like the red, she tells me it’ll fade after a little while. I felt like she did whatever she thought would look best for my hair, with no regards to what I wanted.
I regret ever setting foot in that place.

Once again, my awesome new summer hairstyle was contributed to Michelle’s skills. I told her «short and lots of layers» and she did it my way for $ 15.
I lightened my hair a few weeks ago for $ 110. That wasn’t cheap (for me), but I was quoted elsewhere for $ 250. It took 7 hours at the salon, thank you very much. Michelle used the best suitable products and it required patience since I did not want her to bleach my hair. Worth every penny.
I love my hair! :D

I was lucky enough to get Michelle on my walk in, seeing as everyone here recommends her and her only. She was courteous and took the time to ask me how I wanted it and told what she was going to do before she did it. Although there were 5 people waiting after me, she didn’t rush one bit.
I showed her a picture and said I wanted it similar to that but since I’m a slob, I don’t want to have to style it for it to look good. It came out looking pretty different though. Nothing to complain to much about, but I didn’t really like it.
Like someone else said, she really should do a brush off cuz I walked out with little hairs all over my face like the ring but oh well. Did it by myself no biggie. Just don’t make an appointment if you don’t have time to go home and shower first.

Great price, and they listen to what you want.
I usually come here if I’m around the area.
They usually have 2 – 3 working at the same time.
$ 8 for a haircut is a awesome price!
