Vixen Beauty Lounge is a gem!

I live out in the desert and actually drive in 2+ hours to get my hair cut and colored at Vixen Beauty Lounge by Lesley. Lesley is phenomenal – she’s easy going, fun, honest, fashionable and incredibly talented. Everything you want in a stylist.

I found Vixen Beauty Lounge by accident. I was visiting San Diego and needed a last minute cut and color. Vixen Beauty Lounge has an easy to use online booking system and I was able to find a last minute appointment. I walked in with 2.5″ gray roots, bad highlights and an overgrown haircut (oh also did I mention my hair is curly?) and Lesley gave me my favorite cut and color ever. I walked out looking like a silver fox!

Really happy with my big change in hair colour created by Lesley  She listened to my ideas and I trusted her with her ideas as well. A good experience after a previous negative few elsewhere.  She shaped up my hair and styled it nicely. So glad to have found her and this salon as she will now be my hairdresser while living in San Diego.  No more trying out others. Thank you!

For the past few years I’ve been bouncing around different salons throughout San Diego trying to find the right fit after my old stylist moved away and I am SO happy I landed at Vixen Beauty Lounge!

First of all, I have to say that Lesley was great! She is very personable and she really knows her stuff when it comes to hair. She listened to what my vision was and then educated me about the best way to achieve the look I wanted with my specific hair type. My cut turned out wonderful and my hair feels so healthy and refreshed. I also received a handwritten thank you note from her in the mail the next day, and those are the type of little details that make a big impression.

The salon is beautifully decorated and has such a cozy feel to it with lots of natural light and plants. I also love that they use Davines haircare! I decided to re-stock on some of my favorite Davines products on my way out of the salon and was able to get an extra 10% from their “roll the dice” promo, so that was a nice surprise 🙂

Overall, I would say that they truly have a focus on creating a lovely customer experience. With the boutique setting, the attention to the small details like thank you notes, coffee & tea and snacks for their clients, it really creates a great environement that you can’t always find at larger salons.

Thank you so much to Lesley and Vixen Beauty Lounge! So happy to have found a new salon “home” in San Diego!
