About

Sanctuary Salon describes itself as a collective of like-minded hair professionals. Rather than one house team, it brings together stylists who work independently under one roof on the second floor of 256 Sutter St in San Francisco, each with their own clientele, prices and specialties.

The salon calls its space inclusive and safe for anyone looking for high quality hair services, and it is a gender-neutral business. Tipping is not part of the model: gratuities are not accepted, and the price shown at booking is the full price with no add-ons.

Pricing is hourly for artist time. A haircut appointment includes the consultation, a cleanse, any treatments and the cut and style. Custom hair color appointments include the blowdry and haircut in their timing and price. New clients must book a free, in-person pre-appointment color consultation before booking color service, where policies are reviewed, goals are discussed and the hair color contract is signed. Extension consultations require a 50% deposit to secure a later appointment.

The salon is open Tuesday 10 to 6, Wednesday through Friday 9 to 8, Saturday 9 to 5 and Sunday 12 to 5. Monday is not listed among its hours.

A collective where artists set their own schedules and rates, with education and mentorship offered to the artists who work there.

The salon calls its space inclusive and welcoming to anyone seeking quality hair work.
