About

Robert Lupo founded the salon with the aim of becoming a leading style center among cutting-edge salons in the San Francisco East Bay. The team is organized by stylist level, from Level 1 to Level 5 Master Stylist, and prices reflect both the complexity of a service and the stylist's experience.

The salon describes its space as stylish and shaped by its owner's love of people, life and beauty. It says it keeps up with styling education, trends and products, and it reports winning Best of Alameda after customers nominated it.

Services are grouped into Design, Color, Styling and Treatments. Haircuts include a shampoo, cut, blow dry and style, and color services range from single process color and highlights to balayage, ombre and bleach and tone for icy effects.

Hair extensions are priced after consultation and use glue-in tape extensions made from human Remy hair. According to the salon, they can be reapplied up to three times. Consultations are offered with Enrique Reyes, Ari El-Wahidi or Donta Smith.

Its mission centers on artistry and creativity, paired with current technical knowledge and attentive service.

A stylish space that reflects the owner's love of people, life and beauty.
