I came in ten minutes early to my appointment and was greeted with such warmth! Leila was my hairstylist and is so talented.

Leila communicates before, during, and even after your appointment; I was fully aware of what was being done and am extremely happy with what I got. Even with my hair type--which is hard to work with--it was styled perfectly! Leila helped me a lot with choosing what looked best, and how to style them post-cut.

Evolve has such a great atmosphere. If you want layers, I'd definitely recommend looking to Leila!

I’m so happy to have found Makenzie. It was one of the best experiences I’ve had at salon.
Great shop with high end products located in the heart of Carmel by the sea.
She did a wonderful job fixing a terrible cut from a previous place. Her positive attitude and lovely demeanor made me feel so happy and for the first time in months I am looking good. I can’t recommend evolve salon enough and especially Makenzie!
I’m never going anywhere else ❤️

I had a color correction done by Chloe. I have to move around every few years, and finding a stylist that I can trust is often hit or miss. I hit a home run with Chloe after having an unsuccessful experience at another salon. She was very knowledgeable, answered any question I had, and worked her magic....more

Highly recommend booking with Leila!

I came in with a few inspo photos for a cut/blow-out
and Leila absolutely exceeded my expectations. There was no wait time, I was seated promptly and offered refreshments. Since it was my first time there, she checked in often to make sure I was happy with how it was turning out, which I really appreciated. She was very precise and I never felt rushed, she took her time getting the shape and framing just how I wanted. The blow-out was gorgeous, so much movement and shine. I also love that they use Kerastase and Oribe.

Leila is super talented and went above and beyond, I’m so so glad I found her and I’ll definitely be back!

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

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

This is my second visit to Evolve for a facial. Daisy, my esthetician is amazing. I literally walked out looking 10 years younger. She is professional, educated and adorable. I have had many facials, and quite frankly, Daisy, by far, gives the best facials overall. I had a 2-1/2 hour treatment including a Luxe Lifting and an added dermaplane…and it was so worth the time and money I spent. My new request for birthdays and Christmas is a gift card from Evolve. Thank you again Daisy for making me feel and look young again....more

I can’t say enough good things about this salon and its owner, Katlyn.

You can really feel the passion and professionalism Katlyn brings as an owner. Highly recommend!...more

I have been going blonde or lightning my hair For about 16 years now, and no one has ever been able to do it as well as this team! Under Kaitlyn‘s guidance and the teams own artistic professional expertise and training, I know I will get a perfect result every time that blows my mind. I am so happy with my highlights and the compliments /Feedback I’ve been getting.
This Is boutique salon that takes time to get to know the clientele And they Study the best Approach and formula. The talent at the salon is unmatched/ and very professional.
Jenna just did my color and I could not recommend her more! She’s very friendly and her color technique is fabulous! After consulting and listening to what I want, she proceeded to do a full head of highlights on me(Not an easy task given that I have a lot of hair) And blended everything magnificently!. I look forward to the next time I can get my color treatment.
Even if you were just visiting or a Monterey Peninsula local, I highly recommend stopping by the salon and booking an appointment. The game is on lockdown my friends they know, skin and hair! You will not be disappointed.

I write this as someone who has definitely kicked the tires over the years when it comes to salons. I have getting my hair done professionally for almost four decades (!). I get my gray covered, highlights, toners, Keratin treatments and more. Evolve is expert in everything.

I moved to the Monterey Peninsula from the SF Bay Area six years ago, and I kissed a few frogs before landing at Evolve. I can say I’ve found the best.

Part of what makes Evolve special is the friendly, down-to-earth vibe — that goes for all the stylists and the other clients I’ve met there. There is no attitude.

The space is stylish, clean and chic, but also cozy and casual. It’s tucked in one of Carmel’s many cute hidden courtyards, right next door to a fantastic pizza place, and it’s on the edge of downtown Carmel, so parking is a bit more forgiving.

Evolve is very well run and organized, and you can make appts online. Katlyn, the owner, is a true master, and my hair has never looked better. I highly recommend!

I have been going to both Daisy and Salma regularly for some time now, and I cannot recommend them both highly enough. Both Salma and Daisy are extremely skilled, professional, and genuinely nice people to be around.

Daisy is my go-to for skincare. Her facials are wonderful - she is gentle and effective, and leaves my skin feeling clean and glowing. She also introduced me to lash lift and tints, which have been amazing as someone who does not like wearing makeup!

Salma is fantastic for both cuts and color. I have long hair that I occasionally get balayage done on, and Salma is the only stylist I have found that gives a perfectly blended and natural look on my hair. She is also fantastic with cuts and gives exactly what I am looking for every visit.

I had an absolutely amazing experience at Evolve Salon & Aesthetics, thanks to Daisy! From start to finish, my facial was exceptional. Daisy is not only incredibly kind and professional but also deeply knowledgeable about skincare. After seeing a promo, I decided to try the Guasha facial treatment and added on dermaplaning. As someone with very sensitive skin, I really appreciated how Daisy took the time to understand my skin’s needs and was so gentle throughout the entire process.

I’ve had facials all over Northern California but none have compared to the top-notch service I received at Evolve. I highly recommend Daisy and Evolve to anyone looking to treat themselves (or a friend) to an outstanding skincare experience! I will definitely be back to explore the other services they offer as well. Daisy also does lashes, and her work is absolutely beautiful!

Katlyn and her team worked their magic for the hair and makeup for my wedding in July! Katlyn was super kind and accommodating when scheduling my hair and makeup trial, and did her best to make sure I looked how I wanted to for my wedding! On the day of, her and her team were able to complete a variety of looks including my wavy half-up look, all four bridesmaids with twisted messy low buns, big beach waves for my sister in law, and voluminous half-up looks for the moms, with a more natural/soft glam makeup look! They were kind and patient when asked for minor changes. It all looked gorgeous in person and on camera! Not only did our hair and makeup look beautiful, but it stayed for the whole night! I am not kidding you, our hair and makeup DID NOT MOVE even after sweating and dancing until midnight! My sister in law and I still talk about asking them about the hairspray that they use because my hair notoriously does not hold curls very well, and my waves stayed all night without feeling crunchy. Katlyn and her team did wonderful work, and I am so happy to have found them!...more

If you're looking for someone in the Big Sur/ Carmel area for wedding hair and makeup, look no further. I was married in September at Post Ranch Inn and came into the salon for my wedding day hair and makeup. Katlyn is an incredibly talented hair and makeup artist and I couldn't have been happier with the results.

One of the things that stood out to me about her was her creativity and attention to detail. I had a specific vision in mind, complete with a flower crown. To my delight, she not only embraced my idea but also took it to the next level. She skillfully transformed the flower crown into a breathtaking hairpiece that perfectly complemented my bridal look. It was a unique and personalized touch that truly made me feel special on my big day.

The makeup artistry was nothing short of phenomenal. I've had my makeup done professionally on various occasions, but this experience surpassed them all. She flawlessly enhanced my features, creating a look that was both natural and stunning. The attention to detail was evident in every brushstroke, and the final result was a radiant and picture-perfect bride.

Throughout the process, she remained approachable and friendly, making the entire experience enjoyable. Her positive energy added an extra layer of joy to an already magical day.

I wholeheartedly recommend Katlyn and Evolve Salon, and I'm grateful to have had her contribute to the beauty and joy of my wedding day.

If you are looking for wedding hair and makeup, look no further!!! Evolve salon was one of the best parts of my wedding. Katlyn was super flexible with my tight schedule as an out-of-town bride. She did a FANTASTIC job with my hair and makeup. She was able to take Pinterest photos and replicate them flawlessly and still make me feel like myself. I cannot recommend Evolve salon more....more

Amazing haircut with Salma! I went from scraggly, long pandemic hair to an absolutely gorgeous long bob with great angles. She went out of her way to make sure it was the best cut for my hair texture and that I was totally happy. Really could not recommend her more highly!...more

Katlyn and Salma from Evolve Salon provided hair and makeup services for my Carmel by the Sea wedding. They were on time and had everyone looking absolutely fabulous (3 women for hair/make up, a flower girl with flower crown, and myself the bride). I would highly recommend if you are planning a wedding in the Carmel area!...more

Owner and stylist, Katlyn, gave me BEAUTIFUL blonde baby lights. She completely saved my hair. I showed up to Evolve Salon with awful streaky highlights that needed to be fixed. Katlyn completely transformed my look without damaging the hair that had been recently dyed. I will definitely be going back!...more

Soo happy I got my hair appointment in before reclosures! This was my first time here and the Salon was gorgeous and each chair is completely private in separate sections! I felt secure and safe.
Lily was my stylist and was super welcoming, pampered me and not to mention did an amazing job transforming my hair. I felt like a goddess after. I seriously Can't wait to see her again when they open again!!

9 months ago I got a horrible balayage from a different stylist in a different state. I reached out to Caitlyn and told her my dilemma, and she invited me to her salon for a treatment.

I showed her a couple of older photos of my hair when it was healthy and asked her to restore it as best she could. We spent several hours in the chair getting to know each other while she worked on my hair.

Caitlyn is personable, genuine and really good at what she does. She’s a wholehearted professional who made me feel comfortable the whole time. When she turned the chair around I got to see her hair art talent. I HIGHLY recommend Evole Salon!
