Birds Of A Feather Salon

I am SO thrilled that I found Ashley. I have been looking for a new hair stylist for over a year now, and I’m so happy that I finally found one to keep coming back to. The space her studio in has a great energy to it, you walk in and immediately feel comfortable. Ashley is so personable and helped me make great decisions on what to do next with my hair.
I think the biggest thing for me was the quality of cut/​color I got, and the amount of time it took to get there. In the past, I typically have had to sit through 3+ hours of a hair appointment. Don’t get me wrong, I love getting my hair done, but 3 hours is a bit much. With Ashley I was in and out within an hour and a half.
Clearly I can’t rave about it enough. Thanks again, Ashley!

Larissa is AWESOME! I was completely freaked out when I found that my beloved Jenny had left a different salon where I had gone for years. Then I found Larissa, and I love her even more! Larissa also works efficiently without compromising the result; in and out in less than an hour feeling fabulous. I’m even going to go back to her for blowouts — I didn’t want to wash my hair after the way that Larissa did it. Incredibly reasonable rates, too.

I’m loving this fresh cut. Larissa is a hair goddess. Hands down, one of the best haircuts I’ve ever gotten.

I travel from Walnut Creek to see Ashley as no colorist has been able to perfect the blonde (technical application, tone, exact color) quite like she can (I’ve been to Di Pietro Todd in Walnut Creek and other great salons). It’s very hard, if not impossible to find someone who can achieve a consistency of color and brilliant blonde highlights on my type of hair (very very fine dark brown hair). The first time I went to see Ashley I needed a bit of a color correction as my dark brown hair had turned orange (in the hands of another colorist) which she quickly mastered/​fixed. My hair is not only fine but very fragile so bringing my dark hair to the lightest hue takes a high degree of intelligence and sophistication in order to not fall apart. Luckily I’ve found this in Ashley. I am hooked (despite having to travel from Walnut Creek and find childcare for my toddler while I get my hair done) and will be going to Ashley for years to come.

There are so many reasons I’m single right now, but my hair definitely isn’t one of them. I’m SUPER picky when it comes to who touches my hair, but I always feel comfortable and confident sitting in Larissa’s chair. Because of its texture, I’ve been told that my hair is pretty difficult to cut and style: course, thick, asian hair. Lucky for me, Larissa has the skill to transform my mop into something swagtastic.
If you’re a guy in need of a cut, you’ve stumbled upon the perfect place. Give Larissa a call. And if you’re a cute girl in need of a cut, give Larissa a call too, and tell her to hook you up with her awesome client who wrote this review.

Ashley is an incredibly talented stylist that I have been going to for years. She and Larissa have a true gem of a salon; I love going there each time I get my hair done, which is a lot! Both easy-​going and wonderful people that do a great job for all of their clientele.

Absolutely LOVE this little gem of a salon! Larissa is amazing and she also does my extensions and I always walk out feeling gorgeous! Ashley has styled my extensions a few times and always does a stellar job. I love coming here and always look forward to my appointments!

I am one of those OCD people that freaks out if my hair is not done perfectly and I have finally found the salon that can cater to me this way and they strive to do the best job possible every single time! No getting too comfortable because you are a repeat client… they treat me like a new client that they are trying to earn the business from every single time!!!
I travel all the way up from the mid-​peninsula area to SF for Birds of a Feather Salon to see Ashley because she is incredibly talented, totally reliable and professional! Since I have gone to her not only does my hair look amazing but it is healthier than it’s ever been! I am always getting compliments on my hair!!!
Their hair color skill is second to none. The haircuts are amazing and they will do exactly what you want and not over cut or if you allow them to make a recommendation you can’t go wrong! They do INCREDIBLE extensions! If you have never tried them you MUST. I look 10 years younger when I have them in… I SWEAR! You can not see them or feel them! They make them look so natural!!! I can’t recommend their extensions enough and how much of a difference they make!
I have also gone to Larissa as well and she is equally as talented, reliable and professional. You cant go wrong with either one of these amazing ladies! They stay on top of all the latest trends and I love how they will recommend things for me I would not have thought of to try. I walk out of there feeling like a million bucks and I actually LOVE my hair!!!
Whether you are young or old, hip and daring, conservative or a business professional they can achieve the appropriate look for you. You will not be disappointed… I promise!!!

Larissa’s and Ashley’s talent and skill are unparalled. When it comes to offering the best cut, color and extensions, they are uniquely qualified to guarantee the best outcome for their clients. In appreciating everyone is different and no two looks are the same, both Larissa and Ashley offer the best look for YOU as well as tips on your haircare’s practical maintenance and sustainablilty. These finely trained professionals will provide you with the hair you want, so like me, you will float out of their ultra chic salon with head turning quality hair but only after you’ve secured a follow up appt. in 8 weeks!

I always call these ladies goddesses because essentially, that’s what they are. Work ALWAYS on point. Results ALWAYS on point. You can tell they’re passionate about what they do and that’s hard to find nowadays. ⁵⁄₅ all day erryday !

Larissa rockssss!!! She is amazing! I am a fan!!! No one I mean no one in san Francisco no how to do my hair like she does, I am just glad I found her !!! She is an amazing colorist and she does the best blow out Ever!!! Thank you again for another amazing color!

Larissa is an amazing colorist. As a natural brunette, I’m so ecstatic with how she lightened my hair. It’s light but still natural looking. So pleased. I will be coming back for a long time.

Honestly, today was a great day. I finally found someone who truly knows what she is doing. After constantly being disappointed by different hair stylists, I was ready to give up. Thankfully I was referred to Larissa and she is seriously just a ray of sunshine! She colored my hair exactly the way I wanted and I’ve never been happier! She listens to what you want and then applies it in the most appropriate way to your own specific hair. I’m obsessed with my hair and I definitely recommend her to everyone! Larissa you are my hero ps she is so funny! And their cute salon is adorable and makes you feel like you’re number 1!

Ashley has been doing my hair for many years and there is no one like her for getting the color right. I used to run into trouble with my hair turning orange and brassy and since I’ve been with Ashley she always gets the right mix and
I never have that problem! It always looks fresh and healthy.
I also have thick, curly, kinky hair and Ashley manages to give me a cut that looks amazing and is something that I can take care of on my own. She’s the only one I trust!!!

Larissa knows hair! I’m very picky when it comes to getting just the right blonde highlights and I’m amazed at how talented she is. The color is so rich and always seems to last a long time. I’ve also had extensions done by Larissa and let me tell you, it’s a game changer. They looked so natural and I’ve never received so many compliments on my hair in my life. Highly recommended!
Also, Ashley is a braid magician. She did my hair for a wedding I was in and I was stunned at the results. I showed her a picture of a style I was considering and the results were better than the picture. Usually I think bridal hairstyles are a little much but she gave all of use bridesmaids these beautiful styles that were so unique and looked gorgeous in pictures.
Thanks ladies for making us feel so beautiful!!!

Larissa’s been doing my hair for years and always does a fabulous job! I used to see her at Milvali salon, and had to follow her here. She’s taken me from brunette to blonde to ombré and balayage and always knows the latest hair trends. They only use the highest quality hair that’s totally affordable and it takes only a few hours depending on how much you do. She’s also fun to hang out with when your gabbing away in the chair, especially if Ashley is there too. If you’re looking to get extensions, she’s amazing at that. Love Larissa, Ashley and Birds of a Feather Salon!

Best hair straightening ever! And, color to die for! Larissa is an incredible stylist. I loved the atmosphere of the new location… comfy, welcoming… everything you want and expect from a salon.

THE BEST! I have been a client of Ashley’s for 2 – 3 years now. She does an amazing job every time without fail. Before her, I had a hard time finding someone who could do exactly what I wanted for my hair. I’ll admit, I’m a very difficult client because of what I want and what I have (I wanted my hair to look just like david beckham’s and I have Asian hair… not the easiest request) but Ashley KILLs it every time. She was able to achieve the look I wanted with the hair that I have without having to temper my expectations (too much haha).
I’ve been a cheap Asian hair salon or Supercuts guy in the past, but really her haircuts are worth every penny. The extra bit of money to feel that much better or confident is completely worth it.
Go to Ashley if you are tired of not getting the cut you want and leaving a salon disappointed. She’s also a great and friendly person to boot. I would go to her even if she had a terrible personality and never smiled (because of cuts), luckily that’s not the case.
I hope this review doesn’t make it impossible to book her, so please try to avoid my weekend slot! :)

If I could give Ashley more stars, I would! She has been taking care of my hair for approximately 8 years now. She has the confidence to tell me when a look or color is not going to work for me (she’s always right), but also recommends and tries new looks, such as, extensions, violet red color, bangs and more. She is the best person to visit with and also gives excellent life advice. I love the girl! I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for someone new or for something different. She always sets me right with my hair :)
