  10. Great Place,Great Customer Service
    My husband and I recently moved to La Jolla and have been going to Elias Salon for about 4 months. Don is our stylist he is very friendly, easy to communicate with and does an excellent job. I would recommend Don to a man or women for haircut because I think he does an equally great job with my husbands hair as he does on mine . It?s a great feeling to walk in with no worries and ask to him cut i...

  11. Awesome Updo's
    I have been going to Elias Salon for hair cuts and an occasional color for a couple of years. During the holidays I had a couple of formal occasions that came up, one for my work and one for my husbands, so I wanted to go all out and do my hair and makeup since I don't get to do that often. I went to the salon and got an updo, make up and nails (Olga is awesome with nails) for both occasions. ...

    I got a hair cut the other day at Elias Salon, and I never got so many compliments on my hair!! I decided to change my look, and asked for a easy managable but stylish cut.

    I attempted to seek out Tomas twice for a hair cut after reading all the rave reviews about this salon & his exptertise. My first experience I was told upon arrival to the salon that he had called in sick minutes before I showed up. Mind you this was after 5:00 in the afternoon. They then offered someone else to cut my hair - she was new & did an average job. Ok, Fine. Second attempt...

I thought I was going to have to dye it darker to cover it up, but I called Elias Salon (I had a coupon) and I got Krishanne (I'm not sure if I'm spelling it right). She gave me these beautiful highlights and got rid of the green. And she was so FUNNY and never made me f...

  31. THE MOST UNPROFESSIONAL SALON
    Made an appointment for a consultation with Tomas for 1pm. Arrived at 12:55 and no Tomas. Owner sold me on a nail fill while I waited for Tomas (who I was told is always late). I allowed a totally inept manicurist 30 minutes to make a mess of my nails until I couldn't take it anymore and still no Tomas to be found. BUYER BEWARE.

    Upon making the appointment over the phone, I asked for two things: 1) a particular stylist, "Tomas", and 2) price of haircut. I was told that the stylist I asked for, although given rave reviews online, was not the best stylist in the salon and was actually, "only good with the computer." After much coaxing on my part, I was given an appointment with Tomas. I, then, asked for the price of the ha...

    After years of trying to find someone to highlight my hair the way I wanted, I finally found Kelly. She is a wizard with highlights.

In fact, the entire salon is nice and customer service oriented.

I will never go back to this salon again and I will never have a man cut or do my hair again. I...

    Elias has a friendly feel- the same people work there most of the time and are amiable to each other and their customers. However, services here are on the expensive end. Have seen a few different stylists there, and each has been good but not worth going back to unless the price is discounted.

  52. Fast & Friendly, reasonably priced
    The stylists at Elias are genuinely friendly, which seems to be rare in salon employees elsewhere... The location is walking distance from a number of apartment buildings, which is convenient (I live near here, which is why I ended up at Elias in the first place). They are very good about accommodating walk-ins, also. Prices are high, but worth it for the level of service.

    I've tried numerous salons in the past year, all of varying prices and this is definitely my favorite. Fair prices with excellent results! I'm very picky with my hair color and was pleasantly surprised to that I left with the EXACT hair color I had invisioned. The staff was friendly and I got a lot of time to talk about my needs and concerns before the service actually started. Highly recommended.
