Station Salon & Boutique - Encinitas, California

To say this post is long overdue, would be an understatement. I have been going to this salon, specifically to Dana, since spring of 2023. I came to this salon because I was in dire need of a hair rescue. Dana saved the day, and has continued to make this 40+ year old mom of two feel like a human being. She’s been beyond patient with my indecisiveness and is super talented. Her staff/team are all amazing as well. I have even started having people ask me where I get my hair done. I’m always eager to tell anyone who will listen, about this salon. Hair styling truly is an art and I genuinely appreciate all that hairstylists do. Thanks ladies and especially Dana! 🫶🏻

Irene has the sweetest soul ever. She did exactly what I wanted and even styled me afterwards! I will definitely be coming back to her every time, she literally worked magic on my hair!

Irene was the best, bubbly, & upmost perfect person to do my up doll do for a wedding! Aside from creating a welcoming environment, she transformed my hair into exactly what I wanted and it came out perfect (sad to say I do not have any photos). I asked for a high pony with my extensions added in and she was able to fully transform my vision to reality! It held up the night of and the next two days after! Thank you so much Station Salon for having me & thank you Irene for your talent! Will definitely be going back!

BEWARE! I would select 0 stars if it was an option.

I went in to have my hair professionally and the stylist, unfortunately botched my color so bad that I had to call the next day letting them know how upset I was and then Michelle told me that they would take care of it and get it fixed for me and made an appointment for the next week....Today she called me and told me that they’re not going to take care of it after all, even though they already made the appointment with a more qualified stylist. Her reasoning is because I took the pink out of my hair that was framing my face so I wouldn’t have to look so hideous. I sent her all the supporting images immediately and was never asked to come in until my appointment that was set for a week later.

Before my appointment :My hair was dark from the roots to the mid length and lighter from the midway point to the end (see picture of me with lighter hair on ends)

During my appointment: the stylist mentioned she could put light pink in as I originally asked even though we agreed on just lightening the bangs framing my face and then washing the brown through to keep it looking coeasive.

After my appointment: My hair looked like I took a bright hot pink box dye and dumped it in my hair. I thought maybe it wold fade especially because I specifically asked to be sure its pastel if we go pink. The next day it was still so bright and didnt look blended in at all (see all after photos)

I feel they have taken advantage of me and robbed me of $350 for a horrible color job and then try to turn around and blame me for their mistake. They refuse to correct the mistake they made all because I washed my hair and took the bright neon looking pink out of my bangs and STOOD UP FOR MY CONSUMER RIGHTS. What a horrible way to treat trusting customers. They don’t care about people they just want to make money - it’s obvious by their lack of care after such a mess they created.

Beatrice is SO wonderful! Truly an excellent listener & highly skilled stylist 😍 She surpassed all my expectations today! I have fine curly hair which can be hard for others to cut properly, but she has taken extra courses to refine her methods for curly hair & did such an amazing job! This is 1000% my BEST HAIRCUT ever & overall BEST salon experience. She is so kind, gentle, compassionate and quickly offered to wear a protective mask since I have serious health challenges that require infection prevention. So relaxing and rejuvenating. I had so much fun & felt pampered 💛 I appreciate that they prioritize organic, gentle & eco-friendly ingredients 🤩 I can't wait for my next visit 😂🙌😍

I followed Summer over from the salon she used to work at when she was a relatively newer stylist and I’m so glad I did because she always does the best job. She asks all the right questions to make sure the results wanted are the ones delivered. Even when I’m unsure of what look I’m going for she always somehow ends up giving me the exact results I ultimately envision or even better. I’m also all about color seasons and staying true to what looks best on my complexion & she never misses.

Got a cut and balayage from Alex and totally LOVE the outcome! I wanted the color to look natural, and it's never looked as natural as this! She even finished on time after we both hit traffic and got a late start. Love the vibe of the salon, the whole experience was easy and enjoyable. Thank you!!
