One of Zip Zap Hair's Favorite Reviews
I'm a long time zip zapper. I actually used to fly out from DC to have Ivo (who is not there anymore) tune my platinum because I couldn't find a DC stylist who understood that my goal was not to look like a "natural platinum." (Receptionists would get totally freaked and uncomfortable and would run over and whisper something to their manager, as if I had about 40 pounds of dynamite strapped to my trench coat.) So fast-forward yay years.
Lately I've been going through an ugly phase that is not ending, which made me think it might not be a phase so much as "getting old," so then of course what do you do?...you get on the phone to the hair place to find someone to FIX IT. To make you, if not immortal, than at least not a big, lumbering fugly-saurus sad sackaroni.
Well, yesterday I had Ivy style my hair for the first time, and even though I want her all to myself, it's important that I proclaim her mad skills and general rock star-ness (surfer, cyclist = rad) from the highest Yelptop.
She took her time and helped me through my considerable indecision, and even had me on a 2-step plan to finally get the cut and color I want, but in baby steps so I wouldn't freak. I am *so not* freaking. I am over the moon. I am moonwalking over the moon. Frontwards. She gave me the browns and golds back, which gave me the rosy/alive complexion and my brown eyes back. She cut off the dead weight and helped me parse the uncharted expanse that is my forehead (where many Norwegians have gone, and none have returned).
She made everything OK again. I am ecstatic. This is the best cut and color ever. Seriously. And while Ivy cannot stop time, she can make me look a little more fly as fuck while I wait to die.
Four stars for a bangs trim?
SUUUUUUUUUUREEE, WHY THE HELL NOT?
Heres a tip from one broke ass girl:
When you can't afford your next $50 cut, go get your bangs trimmed and you'll feel like a whole new woman. $10 for the bang trim, wonders for your self confidence!
[Bangs trim by James - didn't touch my whole head, but thats only because I have no cash-flow]

I've been going to Paul Sand for five years. I have thick wavy hair and he is one with my hair. He is an artist. I've taken my mom to him a few times when she is here from St. Louis.
The salon is beautiful, and even though it is a hipster haven middle aged ladies don't feel out of place there.
The owner Mike is really nice too.
Thank you, Eddy (I think that's how you spell your name)!!! You are great!
Well, I have long hair. Before I went in, I had hair nearly down to my booty. But I also had split ends everywhere, frizz, and flyaways that I could never control without a straightening iron (that caused my split ends -- bleh!)...
I was looking everywhere for a place to fix my hair. It took me weeks to narrow it down to a few choices (and oddly enough Zip Zap wasn't on my list since I didn't have a budget for my salon visit). But I told my boyfriend what I was looking for and he simply suggested Zip Zap. That was strange, since he hasn't had a "real" haircut in ages! He said they were good, not too expensive, and easy to get to...
So, I followed his advice and made an appointment with whoever was available at 3:30PM on that Thursday... Well, it happened to be Eddy. Eddy who loves long hair... Eddy who isn't scissor-happy. Eddy who is my hair-hero!
Well, when I got there, he greeted me quite sweetly, listened to what I wanted, and gave suggestions on what would work best. Then he got to work. He rinsed my hair and added some conditioner, then proceeded to chop off about 6 inches of my hair (which wasn't much since my hair is long)... Then he started working in some better layers. He made my hair so much lighter, and he even told me how my hair had natural waves. Being of Asian descent and having relatives that all have stick-straight hair, I figured my hair was just super frizzy or something. But no! It's just because I brush it after I wash it... Eddy taught me how to make my hair fun and wavy. =)
Yeah... I've spent $120 on a cut/style before, and never did they tell me I had wavy hair, but a $50 haircut at Zip Zap, Eddy tells me and teaches me how to make the most out of the natural state of my hair.
Plus, I'm pretty sure I've found my favorite salon... Hoorah!
Karafina, Karafina, Karafina!
Love me this girl! She just chopped off all my hair and I am so grateful. It was long and oppressive and now I have the most adorable curly cut. Not only is it totally check-out-able, but it is going to be hella easy to take care of.
She totally "got" me and what I wanted. This hairdo is a perfect outward manifestation of my personality. Five stars all the way and lately since moving to SF these have been few and far between. Hence, I'll take what I can get. It was hard leaving my stylist Tony in Seattle, but now I have a new hair best friend!
P.S. At least $30 bones less than I was paying in the Rainy City...that deserves a major bonus!
Oh wow Karafina knows her stuff!
Im crazily finicky about my hair (who isnt?)so before going there i read loadsa reviews and decided she was gonna be the coveted one :) So i went in there and told her what i wanted ..and she patiently listens.. she s really sweet and friendly so its great fun talking to her..then she goes snip snip and gave me a lovely cut that framed my face so prettily...she also gave me softish waves like Farrah Fawcettish ...and above all she gave me so much VOLUME!!! I came out of the salon feelin and looking like a million bucks :)
My husbands gettin his hair done by paul this eve...i guess its gonna be great too..
Thanks Karafina...I'm so comin back
I waited a few weeks until I was fully comfortable with my cut to write this review. I was super stoked when I walked out. James styled it very Farrah Fawcett 1970s glam and I couldn't help but check myself out in every window I walked by. But you know how it is once you get home- you wash it and style it and immediately lose your sexy new haircut hard on.
Not this time. James has given me an ultra sexy hair cut that I have gotten thousands of compliments on. Considering my hair looked like Alanis Morrisette circa Jagged Little Pill before my haircut, I've gone from zero to hero in a heartbeat.

I've been had.
Somewhere in this Awesomemetropolis is the curly hair stylist of my dreams ... somewhere ... but not at Zip Zap.
I made an appointment with a specific stylist after consulting with Yelp. I show up only to find out they switched my stylist. Okay ... Okay.
I get a super quick wash and the hastiest haircut you ever did see! And of course, there was the razor, wait, WHAT? I completely understand that every stylist has their own personal style, of course. But Curly Haircuts 101: Never Use a RAZOR! When my stylist was confronted, she became defensive. Don't get me wrong, she seemed like a super sweet person. But I have to seriously question her technique.
Overall, I was disappointed with the service and the frizzy aftermath.
AND!
Then I went to pay ... I was told my cut was going to cost $65. Something didn't sound right but I gave her my credit card and told her to add a tip ... and then I realized the problem. The haircut was only supposed to be $50. When I asked the receptionist, she responded that the stylists have different prices. That's fine, but my original appointment was quoted at $50. Unbeknownst to me, when they switched my appointment to the new stylist, my fee increased. When I voiced my concern, she said "Well, what would you like me to do about it?" I told her it was unfair to not only have switched stylists but to raise the price without informing me beforehand.
Yeah, yeah, she said she couldn't do anything and I left feeling like a sucker. My first and last Zip Zap.
First time getting my haircut at Zip Zap. The salon is very cute and the people are extremely nice. However I hate my haircut. I have never felt so ugly in my life. I thought I'd never cry over a haircut but I can't stop crying. It ended up being three inches shorter than I wanted and it's just short and ugly. I feel like an ugly boy.
Love it!
I've been there twice already and I can't wait for my hair to grow back to go to Zip Zap.
The atmosphere, the people and specially the expertise they bring with them make ZIp Zap a place you can TRUST!
So...
I'm super lazy when it comes to my hair. I put the least possible amount of effort into styling it. I wouldn't even wash it if given the option. I probably should just go bald. But...
I see Mike at this effin' fantastic salon. He does his thing and my hair looks and feels great! I can continue to be lazy and put minimum energy into my hairstyle, but no one is the wiser (I'm still working on not having to wash it). Monica did a cut and color for me once and she's great, too. I usually don't notice when it's time for my next cut because it grows out nicely.
Everyone I've encountered here is so down-to-earth and friendly. The space is funky cool. I like that nothing matches. They don't try to push products on you, either.
Forget about the other bajillion salons in this 'hood (or any 'hood, for that matter). Come straight here!

David was great. I never spend more than $20 on a haircut, but it was time for me to step it up a notch. I went to Zip Zap and was very happy with the cut I got. David did exactly what I asked for and added a few touches that made it look better than I was expecting. For a cheapskate like me, it was a bit pricey ($45) but for normal people who live in the real world, it is reasonable and quality!

After waiting a few weeks to finally convince my parents to let me get a haircut at a nice salon in SF, my sister and I both got out hair cut here!! My sister had Linda and she got a super-cute fauxhawk from her. My sister had been wanting to get it for a while but she got nervous once she was in the chair. Her best friend and I assured her it would turn out fine. And it did! My sister's best friend however was annoyed that Linda wouldn't let her best friend pull up a chair behind to watch. I could see where Linda was coming from. Later on I had my appointment with James. I flipped through a magazine and found something I sort of liked and showed him. He immediately told me that the cut wouldn't really work on me because the girl had straight hair and I had curly hair and he asked if I'd want to put in the effort of straight-ironing my hair every day. I said "no". And he also mentioned that she had her hair styled by professionals and making the point that I couldn't obtain the same exact results. I am actually really glad he told me it wouldn't work because I'd rather have someone be realistic with me and tell me that something isn't going to work instead of going "Okay, whatever you want!!" because what you want isn't always what's best for you. James knew exactly what to do with my hair and he is in the process of fixing it. I used to cut my own hair and it turns out I didn't do as good of a job as I thought I did. James said my hair was really uneven and a mess, and he said my bangs were fucked up. I didn't take offense to any of this because I never thought I did a great job on my hair anyways. James told me that even he doesn't cut his own hair. I cannot wait to go back to continue fixing the mess I created on my hair and for future haircuts as well. And after seeing how skilled James is (oh and he's been at Zip Zap for 17 years!!), I don't think I want to ask for anybody else. I was also pleased that he used Pureology products to wash my hair, because I use Pureology and the line is completely vegan. Yay!!

Just got my first cut from KaraFina. She was very, very friendly and talked me through what I could do with my hair and guided me very nicely to a super-cute cut. I really liked her relaxed attitude and felt completely comfortable giving her complete control of my hair! Not only that but the cut was a steal! Only $45, which is so much better than the $65 I was paying at the last few places I've been to. I will definitely be going back there.
On top of the fabulous hair experience, I also loved the free parking right in front of the store. And my hubris loved the audience that watched the man in the Taurus slowly inch his way out of the parallel spot over 5 minutes and then watched me park like a pro on the first try in 10 seconds flat. The whole experience left me with a big smile on my face.
I've gone to Zip Zap a couple of times. Used to have long hair and Linda did a fine job cutting it. Just went ultra-short and she did a great job with that as well.
Nice staff, great cuts, decent prices.....

There are a couple of problems with my hair. One thing is because it is fine and straight it is impossible to style. It has only two modes - "down" and "up." This means that my attractiveness and coolness are entirely dependent on how my hair is cut.
The other problem is that my bangs become a very important part of this equation, and though I've gone to a lot of chichi places, I've never been happy with my bangs. Generally they've been made too whispy, too choppy. Just altogether not bang-y enough. I don't know what it is! Do I not have enough forehead? I don't know!
Well, now I'm growing my hair out long, so I NEEDED my bangs to be awesome. I read some Yelp reviews and went to Zip Zap with KaraFina. I told her my problem with bangs and she said something amazing:
"How about if we just start the bangs further back on your head and use more hair?"
??!! Whaaaaaaaaa?! HOW IS IT THAT NOBODY ELSE THOUGHT OF THAT BEFORE!
So she solved all my problems. That and because she knows I am growing my hair out, she lets me get free bang trims in between my shape-maintenance cuts. And she is really nice and awesome!
The whole vibe of the place is super hip while still being comfortable. My boyfriend goes to David and really likes the work he does (so do I!!!) It is not quite as expensive as a lot of other places in the city, so for the expertise of the hairdressers I would say that Zip Zap is one of the better values in the city.
And they sure know their bangs!
***UPDATE*** I was working at the tasting room where i moonlight some weekends and a customer was all "OMG YOU HAVE PERFECT BANGS WHERE DID YOU GET THEM DONE I WANT BANGS LIKE THAT!!!" And I was all "Oh, I go to Zip Zap, no big deal," but on the INSIDE I was thinking "OMG KARAFINA I LUUUUUFFFF YOU!"
***UPDATE # 2*** I was at Eden and Eden trying on an IvanHELSINKI dress that made me want to kill myself because it was so beautiful and looked so GODDAMN PERFECT ON ME but recent college grads working in publishing generally can't afford $500 dresses ANYWAY I came out of the dressing room and the woman working there practically interrupted herself mid sales spiel to mention how cute my bangs are GOD KARAFINA I COULD KISS YOU!

Short hair is a bitch. Mine flies all over the place on blustery days, it gets in my mouth and eyes, and a few months without a cut leaves me looking scraggly. But, God, I love it. Few hairdressers have been able to give me the arty edge I want without making me look like a butch 80's punk leftover.
DAVID knows the way. Actually, I found him in Seattle and we coincidentally were both moving down to SF within the same year. Lucky me. He's young enough to know what's chic and experienced enough to execute the look. Girls, let him shave your necks - have no fear: you'll come out looking feminine and sweet and different. He introduced me to asymmetrical, short bangs.
I'm a believer.
I've mostly been spoiled when it comes to having my glorious mop being taken care of. My sister is an amazing stylist so I pretty much haven't had to think about trusting anyone else for a long time. 2500 miles later, I can't really justify the commute to Ann Arbor for a hair cut. Enter Zip Zap and Mike. I took my sister's recommendation and finally dragged my seriously overgrown mop across town for my first shearing in San Francisco. Terrified...yes! I was totally convinced that some blown out California hack was going to wreck my head. Typical uptight Midwestern paranoia on my part. Fantastic experience. Totally laid back salon,enjoyable conversation, and oh yeah, Mike made me look great. Not that it really matters when it comes to fabulous hair but it was cheaper than having my sister cut it too.

This is my first yelp review. I had a great experience at Zip Zap! I've only been in twice and Eddie has been my stylist both times, (I requested him after the first hair cut). The receptionist was friendly, they has availability, (I tend to be compulsive when it's comes to making appointments- so I was super happy they could take me), the space was nice, and they didn't charge me an arm and a leg for a hair cut! The fact that they were so affordable made me hesitate at first and then I realized after paying upwards of $100 other places and leaving dissatisfied, you CAN get a great service for a decent price.
After a consultation with Eddie to make sure we were on the same page, and checking in now and then during the hair cut I left with exactly what I wanted. I was even educated about styling techniques that would work well with my hair type. I will definitely be back and I've already recommended this place to a lot of friends!
i hate to be the one that isn't a believer after so many have written glowing reviews but i had an "ehhhhhhhh.. that was a waste of $75 experience at Zip Zap."
i decided to try a new salon based on the reviews on Yelp and found James at Zip Zap after so many people had given their seal of approval. I made the last appointment on a weekday night and got a less-than-mediocre haircut. All I had asked for was a trim of what I had originally, James started snipping away, talking about how he was impressed with my original haircut because "few people know how to cut good layers in long hair." Anyhow, i figured that if he was able to appreciate the hair that was, I was probably in good hands. A hasty wash, a quick trim later I looked at my hair and thought, "blech.. whatever."
I was disappointed in that my trim failed to leave me "split-end-less." I would run my fingers through my hair and still find split ends and damaged hair all over! I went back a week later to get James to cut off the damaged pieces in which he said, "i could have sworn i cut every piece of hair..." anyhow, the only reason why i am compelled to write a review is because it's been 4 days since the follow-up appointment and i'm STILL finding split ends and uncut pieces throughout my hair.
disappointed to say the least. the only reason why i'm giving james and zip zap an extra star is because he's a great conversationalist.

Hurray for Clar! I had long hair that I pulled back into a pony tail for about 10 years but I let Clar lop it off. That was a few years ago and I've always gone back to her to get my cuts. I love it every time.
I'm a really low maintenance kinda girl so I need a style that will look good without any product and no blow drying. My hair looks good from the day it's cut and as it grows out.
Clar really listened to my needs and she listens to everything else too. She's got great "chair" side manner, and any pre-cut nervousness that I used to have is all gone.

Before Zip Zap, my haircuts sucked. And now that I no longer live in SF, my haircuts suck again. I took the plunge after about 30 cheap haircuts that left me annoyed when I walked out of the barber's. I went to James for over two years and he always delivered a really tight haircut. Highly recommended.
It's more than you're going to pay at a Supercuts or barber shop, but it's worth the extra cost. The haircut looks good the moment you walk out, takes longer to grow out and leaves you not looking like a chump.
I've had a couple "blah" experiences here. Kara Fina changed that for me. She knows how to work with my straight-ass hair. She's super nice. From what I've heard, many of my friends have great experiences here. Yay!
This is only partially a review for Zip Zap. The salon itself has nice lighting and it's centrally located in the Lower Haight. The staff is friendly and the paint on the walls is a rather non-offensive gold.
No, this isn't a review of the salon, per se, this is a review of Clar, a hairstylist who just happens to be working at Zip Zap.
I have been going to Clar for years, since I first moved to this city 4 years ago and she was at Edo. I followed her to her brief stint at Mare Rua (ick!) and now over to Zip Zap where she's been for over two years now, so it seems she's sticking around here. But in truth, I'd go see Clar if she was working under a rock. She's that good.
After two and a half years in Asia, this blonde had some processing problems. Clar took me into her warm and cozy chair and literally fixed me. My hair has a new lease on life and I thank her to no end.
What's so good about Clar, you ask? Well, she listens, and will acclimate any requests. But the best thing about Clar is that if you're not so sure what you want, she anticipates and hooks you up with something better than what you could have asked for yourself. I'm not an easy client in the chair, mind you. I've got major color finickiness, I have to look like a rockstar when I leave the building, and my stylist needs to be unafraid of using the razor.
Clar is fabulous, speaks with the most adorable Irish accent, and chatting with her is a dream. I laugh throughout the whole experience. And whilst under the dryer, she ran next door to buy me a latte. She rules!
And she gives good shampoos. Need I say more?

Monica is awesome! She is THE best hair stylist I've ever had. She knows what to do with my coarse, wavy and thick Asian hair. I get compliments on my hair all the time...
David is my new hairdresser. I went to Bladerunners for a long time, but I go to Zip Zap now. David doesn't have too many reviews on Yelp, so I was a little concerned. But he's a great colorist AND stylist. He got me as close to Tippy Hedrin and Faye Dunaway in Bonnie and Clyde as I am willing to go. Two hours for a cut, color, and styling, so quick too! And it all came out to the same price as just color at BR. He is also just as excited about your new 'do as you are. And he's funny.
I think this place has reasonable prices and everyone seems pretty mellow.
Thank goodness for this place.
1. You don't have to wait for forever for an appointment. I was wishy washy about going, so when I called on Monday, they said they could fit me in on Tuesday and I said I'd call back. On Wednesday, they had room for me w/in two hours.
2. Friendliness: You won't have to deal with stuck up stylists or dumb receptionists who are on the phone with their moms while you try to ask them a question. Everyone, customers included, were easy going and polite.
3. Fun Decor
4. Tarafina: I love this girl. First, she listened to me and didn't force anything weird on my head. She was interesting and interested. She was considerate; of my time and my lifestyle so she offered helpful tips and the best part; no product pushing. We talked about the various stuff out there and I told her my horrible experiences and she didn't judge.
5. My hair: came out great and of course I haven't been able to re-create the look, but I got honked at on the way home (no, not for jaywalking, I'm pretty sure it was the hair) and complimented for the next two days. A classmate even booked an appointment w/ Tarafina because of my inspirational mop. I'm done blowing my own horn, for the record, my hair went back to looking like shit in a pony tail, but the layers are still great.
I have found my new favorite hair location.

I called, at 4 o'clock on a Tuesday night to see if, by chance, someone could fit me in. I was having an bad hair, ugly feeling, need a pick-me-up day and needed a boost. They fit me in at 8! Open late and last minute reservation - 3 stars
Karafina....man...that girl can rock it! I am pretty easy going with my hair, it'll grow back, but just don't ask me if I want to look like Sharon Stone or some other celebrity. I want something individual and not your run of the mill bowl cut.
And that's what i got. I'm not sure if I really want to grow my hair out now, but at least I have a cute ass cut that can work with me, and not something I have to worry about.
Oh, and did I tell you I was told my hair looked fierce? Hell's yeah. Plus 2 stars
I asked three of my friends where they get their hair done - since they always have great hair - and it turns out all three have their hair done by Clar! I immediately called Zip Zap and made an appointment. Within minutes of meeting her and getting her input on my rough ideas... I felt extremely comfortable with giving her free reign over my hair. I have since then brought over my significant other and a co-worker.. and more co-workers want to go have their hair done by her. Clar - look out! =)

I needed a cut three months ago so when I finally had a day off yesterday I dialed Zip Zap and got an appointment the same day.
Monica was my stylist and she was amazingly attentive. I am always very exact and particular about my hair so when I yammered away for 20 minutes about my hair needs - Monica ACTUALLY LISTENED, unlike the many other pompous hair cutting assholes who think they know better and disregard everything one wants in a haircut.
Also - bang cuts are FREE!

After running through a number of stylists in the city I would have to say that James is bringing sexy back!
So, I moved to the city 6 months ago and had to gamble on a few salons until I found Zip Zap. As you all know finding the right stylist is just as bad a dating. Having Titanium Asian hair is half the battle and the other is well, finding a stylist that doesn't ask me if I want a number 1, number 2, or 3.
Hullo I want a hair cut NOT a F#@$!ng combo meal!!!
That being said, I'm glad that the stars aligned and I can now trust my stylist to do his thang to my hair.

I've been getting my cut here for the last 3 years. James is wonderful. I give him free reign to style however he wants and he never disappoints. You know it's a great cut when 3 months later, your friends are complimenting you on how good your hair looks.
Extra bonus for being dog friendly! I brought my shiba there and she immediately felt at home and never once made a dash for the door!

My least favorite thing about moving to a new city, which I've done too many times to count at this point, is finding a hairstylist. I need someone with 1. amazing hair, 2. artistic vision, 3. personal style, 4. intuition.
It sometimes takes years to find this person and you must endure less-than-perfect trims, snips and, unfortunately actual styles until then, but when u find that person, it's well worth the wait. Monica at Zip Zap is now officially that person. I live in Oakland now, but will still go back to the city to see her any time I need so much as a bang trim. She is really down to earth and understands what I'm saying when I come in with disjointed phrases about what I'm feeling towards my hair at any given time. She knows what she's doing, I have great hair, end of story.
also zip zap carries pretty good product, friendly receptionists and is really reasonably priced relative to most lower haight salons.
I got a TERRIBLE haircut here from a woman who smelled like cigarettes and couldn't put down her cell phone. Enough said.

A great salon with a fun, unpretentious vibe. The stylists get along, stick around, and don't try to push products down your throat . The prices are more than fair. My guy is David. I love him and here's why:
1. For the first time in my life I can "wash and go" without looking like Carol Kane later on.
2. When I come home after a cut my man gets all frisky...
3. My man thinks my hair looks "hot".
4. My coworkers agree ( but they do not try to hump me).
5. David cuts with intention. He uses my natural wave and facial contours to sculpt a masterpiece.
6. He's a creative with vision who can see the perfect haircut within your gnarly mop.
7. Oh... and he LISTENS. You will get what you asked for.
8. African-American women bring their hair to this skinny white boy.
9. David is the loveliest person you'd ever want to meet
10. It only took 32 years to find "the one".
I'll be back as long as he's there...

I had a medium long hair and wanted something drastic. My old hairstylist couldn't really give what I'm looking for, so there I was by myself, on a quest looking for a new one.
I live in Lower Haight where I'm surrounded with hair salons on every corner. Literally.I stumbled on Zip Zap and they recommended me Jenny. She has a pretty solid reviews and her price is reasonable, $60 for a hair cut.
I'm really worried at first, cause I love my hair. It's the one thing that I'm pretty particular about, though I know it will always grow back. But u never know when the big earthquake's'gonna hit and I seriously dont wanna die known as the girl with the bad hair cut.
Long story to short, I LOVE my bob! Jenny is wonderful. She listened to what I want, but at the same time she also gave her input how to make it work the best with my facial features. I couldn't be happier as I was strutting down Haight St. I think I just found my new hair stylist!
