Denise Carvajal

"Denise Carvajal is a fantastic hair colorist - the best I have been to, (and I am particular about my hair). She is both meticulous and masterful at covering gray in a way that not only looks natural, but interesting with just the right tones and color in just the right places to give my hair interest and depth. In her consultation's, she is kind and patient and wants to know what you like. Now when I see her, I can just relax in her chair and let her do her magic. I think she's among the best in Marin."

"I had an amazing experience getting my hair colored by Denise. She really listened to what I wanted and matched the shade perfectly to compliment my skin tone, frame my face and look natural all at the same time. The color came out rich and vibrant, she's a total expert! I wont trust my color with anyone else again!"

"I recently had a fabulous color transformation with Denise! Turns out I was NOT ready to go grey so asked her to bring my naturally cool, ashy blonde shade back, complete with all of its depth and dimension. Using an arsenal of highlights with strategically placed lowlights, she was able to do just that. Denise listens to your vision and puts a lot of thought into how to achieve it. The subtle shift in tonality with added shimmer and shine make all the difference in the world! I feel like me again and I am thrilled with the results."

"I'm 62, and Denise is truly the best hair colorist I have ever had. She is the absolute queen of hair color in Marin County. I've been seeing Denise for 10 years for a partial highlight with balayage. I have baby-fine hair, so there is zero room for error when it comes to color—and with Denise, I never worry. I have a deep sense of trust in her skill, artistry, and judgment. She is also highly respected by her coworkers and has trained several of them, which speaks volumes about her expertise. I cannot recommend her highly enough."

"After I moved to Marin I searched high and low to find a great stylist to do my highlights and cuts. It's a scary prospect finding someone new but honestly, the outcome could not have been better. Denise Carvajal is hands down the best stylist I've ever had and I've been coloring my hair for decades. She specializes in blondes and is everything I was looking for: highly skilled, a great listener, empathetic and experienced. She really gets how important the outcome of your visit is for you! She's got a great problem solving approach. A previous stylist was having difficulty getting my hair to a nice bright blonde but somehow Denise figured it out also without damaging it. I have genetic alopecia so to say I'm touchy about my hair is an understatement. I feel 100% in the best hands."

"I can't say enough about Denise and her attention to detail when it comes to your hair. I'm apprehensive about trying new things, yet I knew I wanted to brighten my naturally red hair with blonde highlights. She is so thorough in her willingness to understand what her client's want, and talk through the process in detail. The balayage was exactly what I wanted, and each appointment we'd discuss any modifications or new approaches. Denise is incredibly talented, and her thoughtful approach to each client and their hair, makes her truly one of the best!"

"I have been going to Denise for over 7 years. She is professional, timely, and highly communicative. She always consults before she goes into an appointment to make sure she is doing what you want. Denise is extremely talented at color and cutting. I always walk out of the salon feeling happier after seeing Denise and I highly recommend her!"

"I met with Denise to help update my look for spring. I'm so glad I did! She was collaborative and gave me a great color and cut combo. Everyone I've seen is complementing my new do and I'm feeling great! Best self care and worth every penny."
