I go see Jennifer at the Folsom location, and I LOVE HER. She listens to what I want and takes into account my morning hair routine, giving knowledgeable suggestions when appropriate. I had her do my hair for my wedding, and she came in super early just for me, and my hair was freaking adorable. Go see Jennifer, y’all, for everything from cut to color. You won’t be disappointed.
It seems like some folks have had trouble with the reception staff, but they have always been polite and accommodating to me. I’ve been to Aveda salons in many different cities, and sometimes you find those stereotypical snooty salon workers. Strands is NOT that. The space is warm and welcoming. I couldn’t be happier with Strands.

This review comes long overdue; I tend to paint red flags pink and I will explain. I have been getting my hair styled at Strands since 2007. The woman I would go to initially did a good job but gradually became very intense and emotionally unstable– I got tired of hearing about her relationship problems and she tended to really, really like cutting my hair, so much that she took about four inches off and dyed my hair to look like a wannabe Angelina Jolie– {which I cannot pull off in more than one way} I switched to a different stylist and she did a great job but the past year I started thinking I was being overcharged for services that weren’t necessary! I have been charged for services that I didn’t need– like giving me color for my roots when I should be getting highlights and doing it thoroughly. Salon services are expensive and when a woman gets her hair done she wants to feel she can trust her stylist and be comfortable. The last thing I want to mention is that the owner is abrasive and unfriendly. Say hello to your customers and know who your regulars are! Maybe losing my business doesn’t matter but I gave that salon approximately 200.00 every 7 – 8 weeks {plus products}.

This is a long overdue review. Everyone here is so damn nice! The girls at the front desk are always pleasant and helpful, and always offering up beverages while you wait for your stylist. Stephanie does my hair, and makes my visits there spectacular every time! She’s amazing; my hair always turns out perfect. We have fun exploring new ideas and colors for my reverse hombre. My sessions always include a neck rub, wine, and the latest gossip. I’ve never felt at so at home at a salon before. The product selection is outstanding, and I’m always advised on which products would be best suited for my needs. Bang trims are complimentary, which is great as my bangs grow like crazy. Next stop is a facial from their upstairs day spa. Can’t wait.

Tony is super smart and artistic, he knows his stuff like nobody I have ever met. Not only is he a very experienced stylist but he is extremely talented with color. Years ago, he fixed my hair and returned it to blonde from very dark in a healthy way. He takes the time to explain his reasoning as well. I moved away but was happy to find him again years later. He has been doing my hair now for almost a year and it has never been better. He helped transition me away from bleach and into high lift color blonde. His work is very natural and it has made my hair so manageable. I love that he is no drama too… highly recommend.

Ask for Kristen! She’s sweet and really knows what she’s doing! The rest of the staff I have encountered are also very friendly. The services are a bit pricy BUT you definitely get what you pay for!

Roy Roy Roy, what can I say about Roy? Only that he is fantastic! I decided to get my hair highlighted for the first time in a long time and was a bit indecisive on what I wanted to do. He knew exactly what he was going to do and I trusted him completely. As he is doing his magic he had nothing but pleasant conversation, wasn’t snooty or awkward, it was like talking to a good friend. And the hair? It turned out Super! I get nothing but compliments on a daily basis =) A few weeks after my visit, I get a hand written card from Roy, thanking me for coming in. Who does that anymore? A hand written card? Stellar service, excellent skills, and I will be back to see Roy very soon! Words cannot express what a great experience I had!

I was treated to a massage and facial at Strands Salon & Spa, and I left feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. My neck, shoulders and back had been sore for days, and Dominic was masterful in working out the kinks. I requested that he apply a lot of pressure in order to get out the knots, and he did so without causing any pain. By the end of the hour, the stiffness had been alleviated and I felt relaxed.
Afterwards, Taylor treated me to a very soothing facial. With a gentle touch, she applied Aveda’s amazing products that left my skin feeling smooth, enriched and with a healthy glow. One of the best moments was when she used this amazing device that provided my face with a steam bath — fantastic!
If you need a spa day, I highly recommend the talented artists at Strands.

Came in for a massage because I had a gift card. I had previously gotten a gift card from a good friend and when I went to pay at the Davis location they told me there was 0 balance on the card. They tried to convince me I had already used it and after I told them who bought it for me they still couldn’t quite figure it out. So I ended up having to pay out of pocket for a service I thought would be covered by the gift. The person who gave me the gift went to the salon because she was so embarrassed that had happened and they gave her another gift card with the balance I had paid and my friend added an extra 50. So I went to this sac location thinking I would have a nice massage on the card. WRONG! Not only did the staff not know what was going on they just kept talking in circles and were not helpful. I spoke to the owner of all three establishments and she wasn’t sure what was going on either. They kept telling me I’ve used the card that I literally pulled out of the envelope in front of them. They were so unhelpful and didn’t even offer to cover the charge for the several inconviennce. They told me the person who rung up my friend had put all the cards under her account. 1) how does that make sense especially when my friend made such a big deal the first time! 2) why the fuck do you even have gift cards then and not load them? Never in my life have I ever gotten a gift card with no funds. Let alone twice at the same Salon!!! After 30 min of arguing and listening to the incompetent staff just talk a bunch of nonsense I was forced to pay because I had an important meeting to go to. Otherwise I would have stayed as long as it took to get my credit. Needless to say my friend was also pretty upset. This is ridiculous! I’ve spent 120 dollars of my own money on an establishment when I had gotten purchased gift cards. Never going back there again.

Fabulous salon. I’ve tried all the services here and love them all. It’s a good 25 – 30 minute drive to the salon, and I’ll admit that I’ve tried other salons much more local for me, but none of them measure up to Strands. Kristen is my go-​to for hair services, and if I’m in a pinch and can’t get an appt with her, Tony is my next go-​to. They take the time to talk to you about your hair, they listen to your concerns and questions, and I always end up with the look I’m trying to achieve. The owner is fabulous, ver dedicated to her customers and customer service/​satisfaction. It’s well worth the drive, I always get the hair that I want, and I love the Aveda products and mission. There’s a reason why I’ve been getting services from Strands for over 10 years. Give them a try and see for yourself!

I had engagement photo make-​up done by Taylor and I loved it! She came in extra early (on a Saturday!) since I had an early photo shoot and I really appreciate when a company is willing to work with a brand new client. The experience was great from a warm welcome to the mimosa for me and coffee for my fiancé. The make-​up turned out great, she really listened to my request for a natural look that would still show up on camera. Taylor also made sure I was comfortable the entire time and liked the finished product. Strands will definitely be getting my business again!

The staff seems to be the only reason this place is still open. The owner is extremely unprofessional and rude to customers. It’s a good thing she’s behind the scenes because if it wasn’t for my amazing stylist, I wouldn’t keep going there. It’s awkward to hear the staff talk about her «mood swings» when I’m just trying to get a hair cut. Too much drama for me. My girls leaving soon thank goodness.

I hate getting my haircut, the waiting, the sitting and the pointless chit chat is always awkward for me. I never know where my part is, and mostly use head and shoulders shampoo before I let it airdry. I’m not a hair girly girl, but Stephanie was great, approachable in a real person way, she was also fast, keeping my impatience to a minimum. My hair looks great, and the brow/​lip wax was the least painful I’ve ever had. I left with a good haircut, and no longer look like magnum pi and I have the same facial hair!

I love Strands! They are a full service Aveda salon. In addition to hair services they also have skin care, eyebrow waxing, makeup and massage. You are greeted as soon as you walk in and they offer you something to drink — water, tea, wine, champagne, a mimosa… whatever you’d like. I go for a cut and color or what Strands calls a «cut and a kiss». I’ve been seeing Roy for a few years now and he is amazing. Sometimes I want a different look but don’t know exactly what I want. Roy is talented and confident enough to always give me a fabulously updated look.
While my hair is processing, Roy gives me a complimentary neck or hand massage. Such a nice touch. When I walk out, I feel like I’ve been pampered and I feel beautiful. It doesn’t get any better than that!

Stefani at Strands is so awesome, I do not even have the words.
As a curly haired girl, it is beyond amazing when you find a stylist that not only understands your crazy, curly mop, but also understands YOU and has a feel for your personality and style. Stefani always takes time to talk to you, look at photos and discuss your options. She will tell you if the cut you want will work for your hair type and offer suggestions to make it work. She is very knowledgeable about the Aveda product line and she’s a total sweetheart, to boot. She always gives me exactly what I ask for, but better.
I really like this salon, which is saying a lot. When it comes to my hair, I’m pretty picky. It’s a little pricey and the parking can be a pain if the area is busy, but it’s so worth it!
