The Lane Salon

This review is long over due. I have seen two stylists (Todd & Frank) and one colorist (Stevie) here and I have been very happy with the results. They listened to my needs and gave me what compliments my personal style and busy life (I can roll out of bed and go plus my hair grows out beautifully as I tend to get a cut only once or twice a year). I took my child here last week to see Ali. I witnessed how Ali listened inventively to a teenager who is struggling to find his still evolving style and executed a beautiful haircut that is unique to his own. Highly recommended! You will be happy with any stylist here :)

I had a great experience at The Lane Salon in San Francisco. I hadn’t had my hair done since 2014, so I was pretty nervous going in. Maclaine was really thoughtful about that and recommended subtle mini highlights to ease me into coloring again. The result is beautiful and very natural. He’s incredibly detail-oriented, thorough, and clearly very skilled with color. I highly recommend Maclaine if you’re looking for a great colorist. Ali did my haircut and she was wonderful as well. She listened carefully to what I wanted and made sure to keep my length while adding long layers to frame my face. It feels fresh and polished without being a dramatic change, which is exactly what I was hoping for. The whole experience at The Lane Salon was welcoming and professional. I would absolutely recommend both Maclaine and Ali.

David is simply the best. He is hands down the best stylist I’ve ever had. He analyzes your hair, takes the time to understand your vision while incorporating his vision, and walks you through everything he’s doing — and the results speak for themselves. Every single visit he exceeds my expectations in ways I didn’t even know to ask for. His raw talent is genuinely impressive, and I’ll be honest, I’ve been tempted to keep him a secret — but he deserves every bit of recognition. If you’re looking for a stylist who actually listens, thinks, and consistently delivers, book with David. You won’t regret it.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I get the best haircut from this salon. How do I know this? One I feel amazing and two people always ask me where did I get my haircut. I will not say who my stylist is because I still want to be able to get an appointment with this person. I do believe everyone there is talented because I see people walk out with amazing haircuts and hair color.

I’ve had my haircuts and coloring every 4-5 months done by David Y. for many years. He is consistently excellent. He’s calm, takes the time to listen, and can offer suggestions. I have tried to find another hairstylist in the EastBay in the past so I don’t have to get off work early, and drive over to SF, but still no one comes close to David’s work. I’m sticking with David. I like how the color turns out, so natural with shine, that my friends were utterly surprised that I’ve been coloring for years! ☺️ The Lane Salon is also very nice. Clean, bright, white, and I always manage to find parking if not in front, at a side street close by.
