★★★★★

I came for my regular monthly grey color coverage and purple toner color, and when I asked Salma if my ends were fuzzy, she said yes gave me a trim. I left with color AND cut that has me feeling myself. Just walking on the street from the salon, my hair turned heads, got smiles, nods, and compliments where I feel like a star! Salma is a perfectionist in the best way, thoughtful of the experience I wanted (black coffee and not too chatty), and gives an elevated luxury salon experience with ammonia free color for my sensitive skin, Kerastse and Oribe products, snacks and excellent music playlist. Her honesty, opinions, and instruction with the slightest hint of sass are all part of how Salma is a VIBE....more

I’ve been to this salon three times now, and I’ve left with a great haircut every single visit. The staff is friendly and welcoming. The service includes a wash, cut, and style.

On my most recent visit, Luna did my hair and was wonderful to work with. She was professional and personable, and I am happy with the results. The salon also uses Kérastase products, which is a nice bonus....more

I always love coming here. I book with Salma every time. She’s always booked out far in advance because she is so good and always does an amazing job. She asks lots of questions to see exactly what you want to make sure you’re on the same page, always checking in multiple times throughout the cut...more

Daisy gave me the best facial I have ever had. She is very professional, and she is LOVELY! She has wonderful hands which are both gentle and firm, but not too firm. Just perfect. She made my skin look amazing. And I love that she doesn’t try to initiate a conversation during the process — she will chat softly if you want, but follows your lead. I needed to relax, and I almost fell asleep it was so relaxing!!! She truly cares about creating a good experience. I will refer friends, she is that good. I was on her table for 2 hours and every moment was enjoyable....more

I moved to the area last summer and just haven’t made time to get my hair done. I finally bit the bullet and found Evolve. I was able to book my appt online and get in really fast. Makenzie Did my hair and gave me exactly what I asked for! My hair hadn’t been cut in 1 1/2 years so it was long and just ready for a cut. She cut about 4-5 inches off and cleaned up/fixed my curtain bangs (I’d been cutting them myself 😅). Makenzie was super sweet. I am SO happy with how my hair turned out, I feel so much better looking in the mirror everyday and she managed to someone make it feel thicker even with my ongoing hair loss issues. Great salon and good pricing compared to some others I looked at....more

High praise for this charming, well managed hair salon located in the heart of Carmel-by-the-Sea with easy parking right across the street in the Sunset Center lot. Lead stylist/owner Katlyn is “above and beyond” level talented and experienced in color, cut, styling and in my case also extensions. Her assistant stylist Luna was also terrific.
