Disconnected Salon
Neighborhood: North Park

3830 30th St
San Diego, CA 92104

Lucy E. writes: I find it silly that a lot of their own associates write their own reviews.

How lame. I don't think any business should.

Yelp is a great concept, but let the consumers speak up (which I can see they have) and stop leaving yourself 5 stars.

Thanks!…

Jet Rhys Hair Salon
Neighborhood: Hillcrest

3846 5th Ave
San Diego, CA 92103

brooke f. writes: Hashem at Jet Rhys is a dream come true. I've always been pretty chill about my hair... never spent a lot of $ or time on it, but some friends had been raving about Hashem, so I booked it. I am hooked. He is seriously an artist.

I simply went in &…

The Electric Chair
Neighborhood: Ocean Beach

4944 Newport Ave
Ste A
San Diego, CA 92107

Jen G. writes: Okay, so I have a haircutting fetish that has kept me from seeing a professional stylist for years. There's something about chopping off my own hair that does it for me. Even when it looks like crap afterwards. Last year, I broke down and went to a…

Pretty Kitty
Neighborhood: Pacific Beach

1968 Garnet Avenue
San Diego, CA 92109

Shannon C. writes: James Brown got it right: this is a man's world.

L'occitane
Neighborhood: Linda Vista

7007 Friars Rd
San Diego, CA 92108

1263 Garnet Ave
San Diego, CA 92109

Cindie L. writes: I walked into the salon with middle-aged hippie hair, I walked out with a chic and stylish haircut. (I'm still middle-aged, but at least I feel better about it with my new bouncy hair.) Greg is a miracle worker. I even got a "woo hoo" as I was…

Gila Rut A Hair Salon
Neighborhood: Hillcrest

1010 University Ave
San Diego, CA 92103

FRESH - an urban hair salon
Neighborhood: University Heights

1725 Monroe Ave
San Diego, CA 92116

I was desperately…

Suite 11
Encinitas, CA 92024

909 Grand Ave
Ste 2
San Diego, CA 92109
