My friend has been going here forever and she doesn't Yelp, but I believe REL is worthy of all the accolades it gets. She goes back again and again and always has a nice haircut. Amazing. Usually, consistency is something that's very elusive in haircut places, but they seem to have nailed it here, Quality and Consistency.

My hairdresser is Stephanie. My husband and I recently moved into the area. I found a vet for my dog, and next, I needed a hairdresser for myself. Forget finding a gynecologist, my hair is more important. I followed a woman around a parking lot because I loved the way her hair looked, and she said that she used Stephanie at REL Salon. I called for an appointment immediately. We moved up here from Los Altos, and I'd been seeing the same hairdresser for years. Stephanie made this nervous person feel at home, and then she gave me a great haircut. She's not only talented, but she is also such a nice person. I can't recommend her highly enough. She's a master at color, and if I want to change something, she is happy to accommodate me. She's a beautiful person both inside and out. I did ask her for pink hair, but she didn't think that was a good idea. I'm kidding at the pink hair. When you walk into a new salon, and my heart was in my throat, and you feel welcome from the front person to your stylist, you feel at home. One of the highest compliments I can give her is that my husband goes there now too. If she'd only groom my dog, she'd be perfect. Again, I'm teasing about the dog. Stephanie is talented, professional and nice and welcoming.

Shawna Jenkins cuts my hair and I have been going to her for years because she does a magnificent job every time. She listens to what I want done and delivers beyond my expectations! I am happy I found Shawna because she saved my hair and is very talented and meticulous!

I've been going to R.E.L. Salon for about two years and Shawna Jenkins's is my favorite stylist! She really knows how to do color matching for root touch up and cancel out red highlights. Also she is a great cutter and gives me layers and an edgy cut. Plus she has never once cut my bangs too short. I recommend her highly!! If you want a new look, go there and ask for Shawna!
