Bangs & Locks Salon - Oakland (CA)

Jade Soliz Nicole was so informative and understanding to my needs. Easy to talk to while also making my experience quiet and peaceful. I love the end result. The cut is beautiful and my hair is so easy to style which is what she promised I would get. The salon is beautiful and relaxing. I trust this salon and its team with my curly hair needs. Thank you.

Jennifer Pete DJ was phenomenal! He was super friendly and professional. Most importantly, he listened to what I wanted and made recommendations on how to enhance my look. Also the BEST scalp massage of my life. I feel so glamorous! Thank you!

Virginia D. Brooklyn is amazing. Ive been to a number of different curly stylists over the years and shes been a breath of fresh air. Shes extremely talented, dedicated to only curly hair, and really fun to chat with in the salon. I couldnt ask for a better experience. The initial consultation was awesome, she took the time to ask questions about my hair, take notes, and play around with my curls to really understand my needs before doing any cutting. Since then, everytime I come in she take a moment to see whats changed before diving in. One of my favorite things about Brooklyn is that she takes each persons hair needs into consideration and includes hair treatments in the cost of her service instead of trying to upsell. If youre looking for a curl specialist, consider Brooklyn! Shes spectacular.

Tony López I have been a customer for 10 years. Meyda and Lorena are the best. Great service, fast, and very professional. I would recommend to make an appointment or call ahead. Prices are very reasonable! Plenty of street parking or parking lot next door. Closed on Sundays but open until late (8pm ish) Monday through Saturday.

Rebecca Peterson I had a lovely first appointment with Jessica Cowart. I get a pretty basic cut (basically I just get the ends of my long hair tapered). She was attentive to my pre-appointment notes and in-studio requests, and Im super happy with the cut she gave me! Plus she was very friendly and pleasant to chat with. Studio is small and whimsical, loved the atmosphere.

allison ayer Dwight Davis is a genius hairstylist, a rockstar and an all around cool person. I’ve done lots of colors, shapes and textures with my hair thanks to him. He was referred to me by a friend- we both have long curly hair which he’s done a great job with. Super cute little space, 2 chairs, very personal and professional at the same time.

Karen V Chin Fantastic hair, beauty and nails salon. Beautiful, warm, bright, spotless, and inviting. Lisa transitioned from working at Tomos on Park Avenue for 22 years to here. She listens to what you want and understands how to cut Asian hair. Prices are very reasonable. Wash, cut and style = $35. There is a free parking lot attached to the building at the back.

Andrea Sexton Dumas Love of Hair Artistry has made my loc journey delightful. Once I found Akiyas services, I knew she was who I wanted to loc my hair...but she had a substantial waitlist. During the time I was on the waitlist, I educated myself further about how to care for my hair and made sure this was the right decision for me. The consultation with Akiya further deepened my confidence in her skill; we discussed my hair texture and what would be the best process, size, and care for my hair type. 5 months later and I have never felt more confident. Love of Hair Artistry is exactly that: the art of loving and caring for your hair. Love as a verb. I feel more present with my hair and more embodied in general. Such much gratitude to Akiya! Highly recommend!!!

leroy knightjr I have been a customer for 17 years and the staff is very skilled and patient. I don’t get my locks done any place else, I’ve tried but no one does it better than Nappy or Not
