WICKED SALON

The proprietors, Su and Vicki are both dedicated to their profession and genuine artists. In an understated way way, they listen and then create a work of art with your appearance. The key however is their ability to use restraint, ie take you to the edge, but not over, for a great new look that you are immediately comfortable with.

You will become a regular customer after your first visit. Try them out, you can go wrong.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE my new hair cut and color. I was referred to Sue,co owner of Wicked Salon, by my friend, who promised me that I will not be disappointed with the result. Boy, was my friend correct!!! I left Wicked looking 10 years younger.

I was hesitant about getting my hair colored because I have seen many of my friends who have gotten theirs done, and the color never looks natural. In addition, my hair has been permed many times, so it's brittle and dry. I am so glad that I didn't give into my hesitation. Sue_picked the perfect color that suits my age and my skin tone. She also cut and brushed out my perms, which gave me a softer look. I was ELATED when I left the salon. My first hair dye job turned out to be a perfect 10!!! I cannot be happier!!!

Sue_is professional, friendly, and most important of all, she knows hair!!! I highly recommend Sue_to anyone who is seeking to have their hair transformed.

I just recently got some highlights for my hair & it was what I had pictured! Sueis a great hairstylist & a great person! I've researching for salons for a while & this one was worth going to. Really clean & modern atmosphere! Everyone was helpful & nice. I'll definitely come back as well as recommend it to anyone who's looking for a great salon!

Maybe my standards are just really high, but I moved here from New York and tried this salon and I was none too pleased. They had Nikas Nikas for a while, who has a good reputation as a colorist in SF, but my color with him was only pretty good (needed some more dimension and shades), it too like 4 hours and tons of processing at the sink and dryer, and he was not the most stable character. The girls at the salon were hot and cold - friendly one day, rude the next time. The atmosphere is only ok. Kind of trendy, but plain. They don't seem that driven to be great or to improve. Moreover, after my appointment, I noticed that my usually fine, silky hair seemed coarser and totally dried out. I later found out that apparently this place was substituting one of the high end products for base adjustments (maybe $15 a bottle) for cheap China town stuff ($3 a bottle) and putting the cheap China town stuff in the brand name bottle, so the colorists didn't even know. I'll pay the extra $12 myself, thanks. If they are serious about being the best (and it doesn't seem like they are), they're going to have to step it up a lot. I since have found Hugh McGuire at Ron Pernell Studio and he is truly phenomenal. If you want the very best hair SF can offer, go to him.

I have been following Vanessa for the past 10 years from Architects and Heroes, Red Chair, and now at Wicked. Vanessa truly is an artist with hair color. I have been blonde, red, brown. You could say I am bit of a camilion with hair color. She is always honest about which shade of color suits me the best. My hair always look silky and luminous. Vanessa, you have a client for life. She is simply the best.
