Salon Stilo — Local services in Burlingame

I was looking for a new salon closer to my house and found this place through the good reviews. I was randomly matched with Blaire. She was very friendly and seemed quite experienced with hair. When she washed my hair, it was a little rough, but I’ve had worst in China lol after the haircut, it actually looked pretty nice, but not that similar to my inspo pic (the last pic is the inspo).

I will definitely be visiting for my...

I went to Salon Stilo for a haircut and did not like that my stylist was late for the appointment. She did a decent job with the layered cut and curtain bangs, and the price was $90, which felt reasonable for the area.

She did not ask for tips and only charged the base price. You do not often see that anymore, so I asked how to leave a tip and she showed me. She was nice and easy to talk to. The salon was clean, although they did not use the most luxurious products.

Overall, an okay experience. The haircut turned out fine, but the late start...
