Having a healthy looking and thick hair, I let it grow long w/ donating it to locks of love in mind. People envied and liked it for the longest time I've kept it. Then one day, came a time for me to say, it's time to let it go... but I thought, I have to find the best person in town to entrust my hair style after I cut that 10 inches to donate. I prayed and utilized the wide web to find that pe...
I have never been inspired to write a review on anything until now. I just got my hair cut and highlighted by Len at Frange Blue (well actually last week) I found him online, read the reviews and booked an appointment through his website (very impressive and easy might I add!) and went to go see him. My haircut was boring before Len cut it. He added layers, shortened it, and highlighted my nat...
I am truly one of those skeptical people, or maybe because I have had some really bad haircuts in my lifetime! ( Even in places like New York, Chicago, Atlanta!) and trust me, I am not one of those people famous for writing reviews unless I have received really awful service or a bad haircut. I went into see Len again being very skeptical. I had read his numerous reviews thinking, this is to...
I found Len on an internet search engine, after reading countless reviews I decided to try him out. I am so glad I did! I found out for myself that everything that has been written about him is true! Len created a wonderful reddish-brown color for me, rich, deep, shiny looking color and then added just the right amount of caramel colored highlights, together this color combination has gotten me ...
I used to have my hair cut by another stylist at Utopia Salon which was owned by Len. When Utopia closed, I went on citysearch and found Len. I've had 3 haircuts by Len thus far and loved each of them. Great technique, and the haircut grows out well. I've also switched my hair products at Len's recommendation - the condition of my hair has improved since. The option of making appointments on...
A friend mentioned Len's name to me a couple of times, I always admired her hair, and decided to switch from my regular stylist- person (I wasn't that happy anymore anyway after 8 years) made an appointment with Len, immediately felt at ease with him! He is approachable, he listens, suggests and I could tell he is a pro and has been doing this a while(I asked) the end result was a new hairstyle (...
Len spends time getting to know your needs before he starts suggesting things. I was initially hesitant about doing low lights and when it was complete still was not used to having darker hair -- after having 85% white when I walked in.
The real cincher was when I got home to Hawaii my husband loved it -- everyday he would tell me how great it looks and how much younger I look. Thanks Len.
I tried a new Stylist the other day, and his name is Len. I was impressed by all of his reviews, his web-site and had to see what all the hoopla was about. I am glad I did! Professional, funny, welcoming and best of all skilled! I've had way to many bad cuts over the years (you know the one's where you have to go in sooner rather than later to get it cut again because it grows out so poorly!) W...
I wrote a very positive review four years ago about Len, and I would like to reiterate my deep appreciation for his talent and personality. First, Len makes you feel completely at ease and you become immediately aware that you are in the hands of a master at his craft. It goes without saying that he is an amazing hairdresser.
For an example of his talent: Last year, I lived in Europe for a year...
All I can say about my hair is Va Va Voom! I am absolutely thrilled with my hair! Thanks Len! He is an amazing, talented guy who communicates very well! He gave me a natural looking blonde with highlights using 4 colors! My cut has a lot of layers ("movement" as he put it) The salon is cute, very clean and all the people that worked there seemed happy to be there and greeted me very profession...
I wanted a decent guy's cut. I checked out the internet and this guy (Len) popped up all over the place. I read the reviews, thought, wait this is too good to be true! I made an appointment on line no less! , I didn't know what to expect and presto! This guy cut my hair better than anyone! He is a nice guy, talkative, friendly, not stuck up, and not one of those weird-looking haircutters he li...
I started seeing Len a couple of years ago after a friend recommended him to me. I have NEVER been disappointed and have NEVER received a better haircut and color job that doesn't look colored. the color looks so natural, it has shine, my hair doesn't feel like straw and the haircut grows out so well, that when it's time to go back in (5 weeks later) I ask myself, what is Len going to fix? It l...
I found Len thru Google, and read all of his reviews on Citysearch, I must say I was quite impressed After having gone to too many salons that screwed my hair up I gave Len a chance. Len from the very start was professional, listened to my concerns and needs, and delivered BIG TIME! I can tell he has been at his craft for a number of years, it shows! He also introduced me to some hair-care produ...
I have tried many salons in the Peninsula, and I was never quite satisfied with the haircut. This was my first haircut with Len and I was pleasantly surprised. Len can see very well the type of haircut that will fit you. I have fine hair and he was able to make my hair look fuller and shinier, in other words, he made it look like I was a different person. I owe him for that, plus he's warm and fu...
I have found my new stylist and colorist and his name is Len!. I searched all over the internet and found Len He had many positive reviews I just had to check him out! It turns out all the reviews were right! Great cut, beautiful color and on line scheduling?! I haven't come across any stylist or colorist that has that! All I can say is Len is priceless! Worth every cent! I have found my new ha...
My girl has been bugging me to get a decent haircut since I don't know when. I used to be a barber guy, then moved up to Super cuts (both places my Girl absolutely hated!) then she went on line, checked out the Citysearch hair scene and the rest of the internet, and one guy popped up, all over, Len. I scheduled on line through his impressive web site (the guy has worked on celebreties!) so I fi...
I first found out about Len from a co-worker of mine. I moved here from Dallas 2 month's ago and was having a hard time finding a good stylist and colorist (I like to go to one person, not multiple people) and I tried a few of the well known salons here in S.F. but didn't find anyone I could connect with (it seemed to me they wanted to do to my hair what they had in mind, not what I had in mind)...
I have enjoyed Len's outstanding service since 1996. He pays very close attention to detail and always works to mix up colors that add much needed perceived depth and texture to my fine, thin hair. He takes his time with the cut and color to ensure everything is just right and I have always felt very happy with the results of my cut and highlights for many weeks following my visit. It's cool w...
When Len cuts my hair, I look 10 years younger and 10 pounds lighter! I guess that's why I make the big trek from the peninsula to SF every time to see him.
Hey, good conversations, too! We laugh a lot!

I found this AMAZING stylist (and colorist) Len by doing an engine search which ultimately lead me to Citysearch. Countless reviews followed, so naturally I just had to check out this stylist. My stylist (who I saw for years, just up and disappeared....I think there was some drama about her suddenly leaving town) and I was in shock! My stylist of 11 years gone! But thankfully I connected to Len...
I am so glad I located Len at Frange Blue Salon, this guy really knows how to cut a Man's hair! (and I imagine women's hair as well?!) He is SUPER talented, a nice guy (I always enjoy my visits with him) and the salon is really nice as well, not stuffy, not stuck up, but a nice salon. Len has been in the business for a while and it shows he really knows what he is doing! I haven't been disappoint...
I found Len by doing an engine search on line (he was all over the place!) and I figured I had to check him out. I just moved here from Boston and had a wonderful stylist (and seperate colorist) that I left behind. At first I was hesitant, but after reading the MANY reviews on Len and looking at his impressive website I was hooked. I scheduled an appointment with him for highlights and a cut (...
I have been going to Len for the past 2 years. I have followed him from Utopia Salon, which he owned. He is great with cut and color! He makes me feel young and special. He takes the time to make the style right for you.
I had to go someplace closer to home when I had my second kiddo... they say you don't know what you have until it's gone and while I knew I always loved my hair when I left Len, I didn't appreciate how skilled he was until I went to a couple of other stylists. He is a far superior technical hair cutter than most! He has a great understanding of my hair's texture and thickness (lack thereof) a...
Len has been cutting my hair now for a year, and I've never had a bad experience (or haircut!) - Len is an amazing professional and knows what style looks best for his clients. I recommend Len to everyone I know - especially my friends with bad haircuts.
Go see Len!!
Looking for a stylist - look no further. Len has succeeded in making me look simply marvelous for years. He can do it all, style, high-light, low-light and everything in between. Len is also very professional and courteous. He's a five star stylist and I recommend him highly. You will not be disappoint. He's brilliant!
Len has been doing my hair for nearly a year. His expertise and style always results in an AMAZING haircut. I am frequently complimented on my hair and always make it a point to respond with ?Len Does My Hair?. I highly recommend Len.
Len has been doing my hair for 6 months. It is healthier and in better shape than when I came to him. He listens when I ask him not to cut it too much, since I am always trying to grow it out. He is also amazing with highlights, which is hard to do on my red hair.
Len knows how to work with my hair, which is fine but thick and curly. I always leave his salon feeling glamorous. He is also w...
Len has been cutting my hair for the past 6 months. Once he figured out what worked for me and my hair, he has consistently delivered the best hair cut I have had in my adult life. Do yourself a favor and make some time to sit down with Len. I have been to every barber, salon, and stylist in town. Len exceeds any expectations you could have.
Quite simply Len was able to turn my "hair apathy" around. Thanks to a recommendation, I made the upgrade from "getting a haircut" to "seeing a stylist" and I can't thank that person enough for the advice. Len is super easy going, friendly and from the start cared to make sure we both were at the same level before he made the first suggestion as to "what to do with it". He showed me how far style...
Len works in a boutique salon ( Frange Blue) with lots of windows and air ... you leave feeling completely restored and 10 years younger! His pleasant demeanor and affability makes the whole experience a delight! Len not only updates your cut to keep you current, he does it in such a way, you don't loose what is unique to you. I also had my eyebrows done for the first time ever, by Rochelle. ...
I'm really fortunate that I found Len a couple of years ago. I had been driving to Sacramento from the Bay Area because I couldn't find a stylist that could give me a decent cut (I'm really selective). Finally, after 4 years and some really bad haircuts in the city, Len was referred to me by a colleague - thank goodness, no more 196 mile round trips for a good hair cut! The first time that I walk...
When I moved to San Fran a few years ago, I had no idea where to go to get things done-especially my hair. After several very disappointing places, I finally found Len. He knows hair, and more importantly for me, he knows MY hair. And he styles your hair in a way that you don't need to style it everyday-he knows how to make chic low maintenance cuts. He is a really friendly and knowledgable styli...
I first met Len about 6 months ago. I had been to two hair salons and the haircuts I received kept getting worse. I did a quick search and found Len. I was able to book an appointment that day. I walked in and the atmosphere was very relaxing. I was very nervous because I had just encountered those last two horrible experiences. Len came out to greet me and I knew right then that we were going to...
I have been going to see Len for over two years and can't imagine entrusting my hair to anyone else. He listens to what I want done, has great ideas of his own, and works his magic very easily. He is a natural at his chosen profession, and it's obvious he enjoys what he does. Each cut, color, and style is perfectly done. I give him my highest recommendation.
Len has done my hair for over a decade and he always does his best. He doesn't tolerate room for error.
I am very demanding about my hair, and he understands that, and is very patient with my quest for perfection.
First I should say that I am not the reviewing type. I have never loved or hated anything enough to review it. But Len is worth it. Before Len I had never gone to the same hairstylist twice in the city. I hopped around because I could never find someone I could trust. Well 3 years ago I found Len. I've been going to Len since then because he gives me predictably good results.
His haircuts gro...
Len, is very passionate about his work. He loves what he does and cares for his clients. The conversations with Len are always fun and entertaining.
Len is so talented! Not only is he a blast to talk to for hours while I get my hair done, but I have total faith in his skills and sense of style. My hair had not been touched for 7 months and he brought it back to life with the shiniest color I've ever had and a spankin' new, hot, style that was exactly what I asked for (that's rare). Plus, I got to enjoy a lot of laughter with a great glass ...
Len is great. He's an excellent colorist and stylist, and I thoroughly enjoy our conversation and laughs when I'm in the chair.
Len has been cutting my hair for THIRTEEN, yes 1-3, years. It's been super short, above the shoulder, below the shoulders, medium, long, etc. I have naturally wavy hair and if you cut it wrong, it sticks up or out. Len understand my hair and all it's personalities. He is an excellent consultant when it comes to change. As well as explaining different style options.
He's my longest relationship!...
I have been a client of Len's for about 4 years and have never even considered going elsewhere. He clearly knows what he is doing and takes hair color to new levels. He is honest and down-to-earth without making you feel bad. I cannot say enough kind things about him. You won't be sorry if you go to him.
After 5 weeks of Citysearch listing my address incorrectly the updates or edits have finally been made! THANKS! The address that appears on my listing now on Citysearch is correct. 760 Market Street - Suite 449 in the historic Phelan Building (across from the Four Seasons hotel and residences and Marriott hotel on Market Street) Thank you for your patience and I apologize for any confusion for...
I have been seeing Len since he owned his own salon (Utopia) 9 years in total! He has aways given me the BEST haircuts (you can tell after 4-5 weeks when the cut still looks good!) as well as the BEST highlights, so natural, not zebra stripped, or Un-natural looking. Sad to say my husband and I are moving back to New York, and I am leaving this wonderful stylist and colorist behind! I'm certain I...
One word... phenomenal. And wouldn't you know, I found him by reading online reviews. Everyone was raging about this stylist named, Len. I had to sample his work for myself. Who is this Len?? In short, a man of impeccable taste, a gorgeous understanding of the art of hair, and the epitome of style. You are hooked from the moment he lightly takes a lock of your hair in his fingertips and begins to...
Perfection! Len is brilliant. I've been anxious to have my hair done with him since I first heard about his services and visited his site. Just as his site speaks with cutting edge class and sophistication, his work does as well - and then some. He is so knowledgeable about what styles will work best for the texture of your hair, the contour of your face, etc. He makes both the health and be...
Ok confession time! I am a former hair-hopper! I went to almost every top salon here in the city (Cinta, 77 Maiden, Joseph Cozza) and either they promised something they couldn't deliver or the stylist was rude and the experience uncomfortable and the hair looked good but with so much money spent and then not a word from the person doing my hair?! Then I found Len. He is down to earth, personab...
My daughter Megan first started going to Len when he owned his own salon that he closed I belive last year? Anyway, I always loved what he did to my daughter's hair, but at the time I was commited to my stylist of 18 years and didn't want to cheat on her. She met a guy, got pregnant and moved to L.A. I had to find another stylist and he was there all the time. I immediately had a connection wit...
I located Len on the internet, I simply keyed in best hairstylist in San Francisco and his name came up all over the internet. After reading his reviews on Citysearch, as well as on his web site, I decided to give him a try. Well, Len, you live up to your reputation! I went in with my expectations on hold (I thought so many positive reviews and not one bad one?, too good to be true!) I was wro...
I took my hair to Len and I got EXACTLY what I wanted. Both the cut and the color were above expectation for my first time at a salon and the man himself is a friendly, humorous and chatty individual who makes the hours you spend in the chair seem but like minutes. The salon itself is upscale but not intimidatingly so and although they were still unpacking into the space when I visited, they we...
Simply put Len is the best Stylist anywhere! I have been a loyal client of his for 4 years. I first started seeing him at his former salon (Utopia) after reading about him in the SF Chronicle. I am continuously amazed at how he cuts and colors my hair, but it looks totally natural, that's the best part. I had tried other stylists and they were okay, but Len is not only talented he is a nice gu...
I have been hairdating Len for quite some time (7 years to be exact) I feel a little guilty that it has taken me this long to write him a review, but here goes..... I first started seeing him at his former salon Utopia, and have followed Len since he closed his former salon last spring. I didn't care much for the first salon he ended up in (Level 4) but what can I say?! I would let this guy do m...
I just moved to town from a small town and wanted a new "do". I found Len through Citysearch, read his reviews and made an appointment. I have long hair, so trusting a new stylist is a leap of faith. What Len gave me was beautiful, soft and very stylish. He new the exact length my hair should be in order to get the maximum wave and yet still be long. Bravo Maestro!
I found Len doing a search engine on-line and also on here, I read his reviews, looked through his very well put together web site and decided to schedule an appointment.(I even made it on line on his web site!) I had been going to Joseph Carpucci salon, but he flaked on me one to many times, and the location was bad(very seedy!) I needed something in Union Square and I found it! I had highligh...
After having owned my own salon (Utopia Salon) for 9 years, and after that working in a Salon for 5 months that just didn't seem to be a fit, I have made the switch to Frange Blue Salon and I wanted to let all of my clients know how happy I am! The location is in a very convenient location (a block from Union Square) the lighting is amazing, my fellow co-workers are professional, and the salon s...
I started hair-dating Len back when I worked in the Fi-Di and he was heading the famous Utopia Salon. It was a good excuse for a 20 min walk from the office and I always came away more beautiful. Fast forward to now that I work from home (not complaining about that) and am infinitely lazier. I tried a couple really nice people within walking distance again and I am sorry to report that nice peopl...
I was fortunate enough to find this amazing stylist LEN on Citysearch. After reading his reviews and viewing his website, which was very impressive! I decided to make an appointment with him. I am so glad that I did! He totally lived up to all of the reviews written about him! I had tried several high-end salons here in the city, nobody seemed to get it right. Len listened to exactly how I wa...
Just left the other review on your salon listing. Sorry it's taken a while to leave this. My girl and I first started seeing Len at the salon he owned we were sorry to hear it closed. We followed Len to his new digs, cute, smaller than his old salon but nice. This guy knows how to cut some mean hair! whether you're looking for a men's cut (classic or cutting-edge) Len knows his stuff! My girlf...
I followed Len to his new salon (Level 4) from his old salon (Utopia) that he closed a few month's ago. I so miss his old space, it was beautiful! Oh well! Anyway, Len is the most amazing hairstylist and colorist I have ever had the pleasure of going to. I have lived in both Chicago and New York and Len can hold his own compared to the stylists in those cities! He always cuts my hair exactly th...
Giving Len carte blanche to do his best, he turned my thin, wavy mop of hair into a layered, styled masterpiece that garnered enormous compliments all night, and is now easy as pie to maintain and looks fabulous 24 hours a day. Thank you, Len!
I was referred to Len by a co-worker friend of mine. I had admired her hair for a long time and finally asked her where and who she gets her hair done by. Her answer Len does my hair. She gave me his card, I checked out his web site (under the same name, Len does my hair) and read the many reviews written about him. I was immediately impressed and decided to make an appointment with Len. He c...
I asked a girlfriend for a recommendation for a stylist, my old one decided to move to L.A. with her boyfriend and I thought Oh My God what am I going to do?! After receiving the card from my friend I was immediately impressed! The card looked nicely designed and I decided to check out Len's website (which was equally as nice!) I made an appointment still skeptical (I thought no-one, no matter ho...
Len has been doing my hair for about two years. I first visited his salon thanks to CitySearch contributors? recommendations. He totally lived up to the reputation. He cut my hair so elegantly. Just right balance of layers, lightbang, etc. makes such a difference. I am particularly amazed with the subtlety he can apply to make my hair colored and highlighted. I have solid black hair, thick ...
Len gave me a great look. Short sassy, good color, not complicated. He'll start with offering options and build from there.
My friends have seen me with many cuts - this cut stood out.
As a regular client of Len's, I feel the need to tell others about the OUTSTANDING and CONSISTENT SERVICE that I ALWAYS receive, which is what keeps me going back! After having a great experience at a chic hair salon in Paris several years ago, I knew I could never return to my 'USUAL' place in the city upon returning home, since I had now experienced the best of Paris. So I set out on the task o...
For the first time in my life I get my hair cut and colored without anxiety. I know that I will walk out looking like a million bucks EVERY TIME. We've all had stylists who do what we ask the first time or two, but then, as if controlled by some other force, quickly depart to an undesired color or an awful cut. Len consistently colors and cuts my hair beautifully every time. He knows how to a...
I have thick, unruly, wavy hair which I hate - I have a few friends who had Thermal Reconditioning (Japanese Straigtening) and swore by it. I decided to do some research and found Len. I had a consultation with him and he made me confident that it would be great. It took hours but it flew by, Len chatted with me and even provided lunch. It has lasted a really long time and I am still supremel...
Len is absolutely the best hair stylist I have ever had. He is very talented and really knows what looks good on different face shapes or colour of hair. I am very happy after each appointment with him and he is also quite a friendly person. I have never had more than 4 people complimented my hair but Len would be the one to make that happen.
The location is also very convenient as the sa...
I used to see Len at his own salon (Utopia) which he sadly closed last month. I followed Len to his new salon Level 4 and I love his new space! It is has the best lighting, so I can truly see the magic that Len does! I see Len for highlights and for my cut. I have to say Len is amazing at both! Sometimes you have to see one person for one or the other, but with Len you can see him for both! I ...
I was stuck in boresville with my hair and hair appointments. After trying some supposedly very high-end salons, I was not impressed with the end result or their attitude. Then I found Len at Utopia on Citysearch. The cuts and color he gives me are right on for my face and skin and what I want/my mood (not sure how he does that). Another thing that sets him apart is that he really cares. It'...
Len is really an artist ! Perfect highlights with a lot of subtle tones, wonderful cuts : you just feel like a model after a couple of hours with him. He makes me feel beautiful each time I see him and experience his work. I have never found a better hair stylist in Paris or in San Francisco. I first met him in Utopia salon but his new place in Level4salon is very nice and bright, very convenien...
Len is such a pro at what he does plus he's always fun to talk with for a couple of hours. Of course, the best part is what he does with my hair - my cut and blonde color always look amazing. I've seen Len for years at Utopia and I love his new spot at Level 4 now! Great location and windows. Go to Len if you want to look and feel great!
Where to start about my hair maestro?!?! I always walk out after a appointment with Len with terrific hair! Not only do I look good but Len makes me feel good. Plus, I love his new bright and airy space in a location that is still extremely convenient. Even if you think you've found your "hair home" you need to experience Len and his expertise and warm personality.
Looking for a stylist, look no further. Len has succeeded in making me look simply marvelous for years. He can do it all, style, high-light, low-light and everything in between. Len is also very professional and courtious. He's a five start stylist. I recommend him highly, you will not be disappointed. He's brilliant!!
Len is the hair whisperer! I have been a client of his for several years after being a salon hopper. I used to go to a different salon each time I got my hair done because I was not happy with the result. All of that changed when I met Len. He is extremely talented, and skilled when it comes to hair cuts, color and style. He is also a fabulous, fun guy. I highly recommend Len to anyone who is loo...
Len is awesome! I have the most difficult hair in the world; besides having wavy unruly hair, it is thick and constantly full of knots!! I have gone to see Len a total of three times and each time he has been patient with my hair and manages a way to make my hair look fabulous. I can say this because I avoided getting a haircut for over a year, my prior experiences with other stylist in the...
I have thick, wavy hair, but want to be modern - not ridiculous. Len has great talent, listens to me, offers fabulous suggestions, and never fails. Atmosphere is pleasant, friendly and relaxing. It's a treat, instead of a dreaded necessity, to have my hair cut by Len.
