Sue is so sweet and so talented. I came in 3 weeks ago with damaged, dull orange hair when I wanted a vibrant red from my previous hair dresser who also cut off 4 inches of my hair when it was supposed to be a trim. Sue fixed up my bad haircut and gave me the color I wanted and it's beautiful. She showed me that she truly cares about her craft and loves helping people. She's awesome!

Hello salon/ stylist searchers- So a week ago I went to a salon in El Cajon (will not mention the name or person who botched my hair) I have long blond course hair which is on the thick side and needed a lot of texturizing and shaping. I called several salons and just went in by chance. I was assigned to a stylist who did not give me the hair cut I requested even when i had shown her pictures and wanted the style as a Butterfly/ or Wolf cut. I was very unhappy and dissatisfied with the results. Mind you this is a reputable salon but not known for the one of the BEST Salons in El Cajon. Anyway, the following week I did more research and came across Thrive and read reviews and was glad they were voted one of the TOP salons in El Cajon and Santee! I needed my hair cut fixed so bad. I called the salon, spoke to the owner, and made an appointment and was glad they had an opening the same day and was assigned to SOPHY- God bless her she gave me the best haircut ever and was able to totally fix my previous unsatisfactory cut I had before. She did an amazing job. Now this is what a Butterfly cut should look like!! So happy with the service/ style results but most of all SOPHY! Thank you, thank you, thank you amazing job! After pic on left..done by SOPHY this is the next morning.

I'm always very nervous about going to a new stylist, but Sue was wonderful! My hair is very thick and wild, but Sue took care of it and lightened it up perfectly. She took me in last minute and was just amazing. Thank you, Sue!

Sue is a color expert. I highly recommend her. She transformed my hair from dark to blonde in one session. Very hard to do and sometimes impossible, but she did it without compromising the integrity of my hair.

I have no doubt that this business does excellent work on hair; but, I wanted to place a review based off of the customer service on the phone that I received earlier today. I called and asked a question to estimate the cost of a specific kind of hair coloring.I knew that it was a tall order, and I was definitely expecting it to be fairly expensive; but, the responses I received over the phone weren’t ideal in regards to customer service. I was told, in response to my question of the cost estimate (not even a real response about a price, but toward my coloring description), that, “….. That’s a lot. That’s a lot”, over and over. At least stated by the associate five times. To the point where I just responded, “Yup. That is a lot”. It was a lot. But, based off of a certain review photo that is somewhere on this page that displays a similar fashion to my request, but the bottom portion of the ombré is of a different color, it likely wouldn’t be impossible. I personally wouldn’t know why that kind of response would need to be stated if the job was done very well prior. Even if unintentionally, the responses I received sounded slightly condescending and stressed, just for a hypothetical on a coloring request.I don’t mean to ruin anyone’s day; I know that hair stylists have a demanding job with demanding clients. And I’ve seen the photos that show that this location does very good work. I did, however, want to mention the customer service that I had received.

I have two teenage boys with longer hair, different textures. Taylor nails it every single time for them!! I am so happy I found him! He is also so fun, genuine and awesome to talk to. Myself and the boys love him. HIGHLY recommended for boys with longer hair that change it up sometimes, he makes it look amazing at each request. The owners are awesome and great people as well, this is a place for all hair types, you just know you will get treated right and with genuine respect. I would double these stars if I could!!!

Sue did an amazing job on my highlights and I loved the salon overall. Laid back but classy vibe. This is my new spot in La Mesa! I moved here 2 years ago and I've been waiting to find a good salon. I got my hair done a few weeks ago and I'm just now getting around to writing this. She also did a really good job on the cut as well. And the prices are fair! Definitely recommend.

First of all, my stylist is amazing!! She gets 5/5. This week I had the first appointment of the day and the salon was filthy. The rest room had NOT been touched for a least 2 days. Mounds of hair on the floor, sink had something in it. Faucets had not been cleaned. The salon itself had fur balls under most of the cabinets. There was so much dust on the black station base that I was told some one had put a smiley face there a week prior. With everything going on with Covid-19, it is absolutely necessary that everything needs to be cleaned and disinfected daily. If my stylist did house calls I would definitely opt for it.

This is my favorite place to get a haircut. I have wavy weird hair that has a mind of it's own. I use to choose really bad haircuts that didn't work out right. They know what to do to make it look right and the best ways to manage my hair.
