About

Salon Ardor is a hair salon in San Diego, open Monday to Saturday from 9am to 5pm. The team is led by owner and master stylist Kimberly Nguyen, and the salon's stated goals center on education for its stylists, quality products, and comfortable services for guests.

The salon also describes a commitment to mentorship and sustainability, including recycling materials to reduce its carbon footprint. Several stylists work from the suite as booth renters, while others are salon stylists.

Services are grouped into haircuts, extensions and consultation-based color work. Haircut prices depend on the length and thickness of the hair. Services that need a consultation first, such as color correction and reverse balayage, are booked after a conversation with a stylist. Guests who are unsure what to book can text the salon. Booking requests can include current hair photos, inspiration photos and a three to five year hair history. Group appointments can be booked for yourself and others, and packages, gift options and retail products can be bought through the Fresha booking page.

Education for stylists, quality products, comfortable guest services, and sustainability through recycling materials are the salon's stated priorities, alongside mentorship.
