Retreat Salon - Redwood City (CA)

Ivette I have been coming here since I was little with my mom. Miguel does an amazing job! He did my highlights and gave me a haircut. I have been getting many compliments. The price was reasonable and I was able to get an appointment fast. I definitely recommend this place.

Samantha Rajaram I’ve been seeing Mona for years now. She can do it all-razor cuts, point cutting, balayage, highlighting, keratin treatments, even threading! She’s so talented and kind and treats her clients so well.

Steve Hunsader Paco and associates are the best! Our family of 4 has been coming here for at least 4 years now, wife, perhaps twice that. Paco seems to know what looks best on each of us, and has nailed it each time. SO HAPPY that this group made it through Covid, and are thriving now. 5+ Stars for Paco.

Sonali Sen Sofia is an absolute gem of a hairstylist and colorist! I’ve been a loyal client for five years, and she never fails to amaze me. Her expertise in color is unmatched—she has a true talent for choosing shades that perfectly complement my complexion and the season. Whether I’m looking for a subtle refresh or a bold new look, Sofia nails it every time. Beyond color, her cuts are flawless—always trendy, flattering, and easy to style. I trust her advice completely, and she has a knack for knowing what will work best for me. Not only do I leave Sofia’s chair feeling like a million bucks, but the entire appointment is such a pleasure. Her warm personality and great conversation make the experience as enjoyable as the results. I constantly get compliments on my hair, and it’s all thanks to her artistry and skill. If you’re looking for a hairstylist you can count on to keep you looking and feeling your best, Sofia is the one!

Melissa Im extremely satisfied with my hair! Ive been to see Laura 3 times now. Once for a color correction, and a hair cut, and this last time, more blonde highlights that frame my face. She is personable, professional, and knows what she is doing! I would refer anyone to go see Laura for a cut/color/style. The salon is downtown redwood city across from Philz coffee and it is a beautiful salon. I felt very at ease there.

Diane Aguilar Francisca was extremely patient, kind and knowledgeable. I showed her a pic of what I wanted and how I wanted it different in some areas and she followed my instructions with a positive attitude. I am definitely coming back!!

Wenjing Liang Yayoi is the best hair stylist I’ve ever met, she did so great with my thin hair, made the perfect bob hair cut for me. Definitely will come back to her when she is available and highly recommend her.

R MTZ Great place for coloring and haircuts ask for Celina

Kelly Gherardi Melissa has been cutting and coloring my hair for many years. One of her areas of expertise is knowing how to correctly cut my curly hair and teaching me how to style it myself. She is super knowledgeable about the latest products and trends and offers great suggestions and advice. My almost-completely-gray hair still looks naturally blonde to the outside world, thanks to Melissa! In addition to being an expert about all things hair, she is pleasure to spend time with.

Maria N This salon is tucked away in a quiet neighborhood but is definitely worth a visit. I started coming here because it was convenient to where I lived, but Ive stayed on for years because of the people and the wonderful service they provide. Ive been coming here for haircuts, color, highlights as well as Aveda products. I have almost always worked with the owner, Alma, who is terrific; she really tries to make sure you that you not only look and feel good but that you also have a great experience. Very accommodating too. I recently got a haircut from Elsa who also did a wonderful job. Highly recommend.
