La Bella Salon

Absolutely love my nails. Needed some TLC and they were so nice and interesting. I don’t remember who did my nails but she was fast and at first I worried about the shape but as she began to shape and finish everything looked perfect. Since it’s super close I usually run in for a trim during the week. My hair has grown out but it looks really good still. I also got a hot oil treatment which in total was not at all expensive.

I was major need of a hair cut and decided to try this place. It’s super affordable. I just don’t believe paying $ 65 for a simple trim! The wash is not as thorough as other and the sink was really dirty. I got a treatment for extra $ 10, but not sure if it made a difference. My hair is a little shorter than I asked and a little uneven, but it still feels great to get the dead hair cut. I’d give this place another visit for sure!

So I normally never write reviews on Unilocal,but I just thought I’d share my experience here today. I been wanting to get my hair done for a while but I been looking for a good, afforable place and I came across this salon on Unilocal and decided to give it a shot. I was helped by Helen and boyyyy did she do a number on my hair. I am so satisfied, Im completely in love!!! I just let her work her magic and it turned out perfect, and she was pretty nice. If you’re looking for good prices and a good hair change definitely check out Helen

I got suggestion for this place and wow I got the best haircut ever .Kim is awesome, she gave me the look I always wanted :).thank-​you for your service :)

This place absolutely sucks. I got acrylics and the quality of the nails is absolutely the worst. They fell off in 2 weeks. Legit — fell off ! Have you ever heard of acrylics just FALLING off. She even forgot to cut the length of my original and was just going to attach the tip onto a full grown nail. This quality of their work sucks, you’re better of going ANYWHERE else.

Been coming here for quite some time and the lady’s are somewhat all nice. There are some who have an attitude and others who are super sweet. It’s a hit or miss if it’s your first time. Expect there to be a good amount of people and when they say they’ll be with you and you should wait, they really mean wait for 20+ minutes. My sisters and I went and it took about that long for someone to start with one of us. Around the same time my other sister was getting her nails done. I assumed we would all be done around the same time. Little did I know that when I was done my sister was waiting for the manucurist, which left her halfway done with her nails for other customers. Some have good customer service and some don’t, so beware.

Very satisfactory. I like this place. After cool haircut they also wash your head.
Till I move from San Jose, I am not going anywhere else.

I’ve been going to this salon for about a year now. I love it! I’ve had 3 haircuts with Helen, and 1 with another woman there, and although I adore Helen and prefer her, they were both wonderful.
What I would say is the best about this place is that they actually listen to how you want your hair done. If you have a picture, they will match it to the best of their abilities, no questions asked. If you have a hairstyle you are curious about and want to try, they will give you their HONEST opinion about whether or not they think it will look nice, but regardless will do whatever you want without pushing you another direction.
I recently came here for a Balayage Brown Hair coloring session and deep oil treatment. In total, the session lasted about 3 hours with dye, treatment, and styling. I am new to this the coloring world and never pamper myself by having my hair professionally done, so I was a bit taken aback by the price which was $ 140 for color and deep oil treatment, but I was very happy with the results and opted for it!
I would highly recommend this salon and know I will be back.

I went there for getting lowlights. All my friends recommended Helen and she did an amazing job. I would highly recommend this place.

$ 20 haircut: price is good.
Bad haircut that I could not stand it for long. I had to fix it somewhere else after a week. Can’t stand it, so old school style that Helen gave me. The hair was so short that I could not ask her to fix it anymore. I left the salon with bad haircut that I didn’t like literally AT ALL. Gotta go to fix it again!!!

Living in downtown San Jose I was looking for a place to get a nice haircut. Found this place on Unilocal.
Walked in for a haircut and I must say I loved the work.
Helen is skilled and asked what type of haircut I wanted.
Hair Cut with wash+ Oil treatment= 30 $ something!
Loved it.
Will visit regularly!!!

Helen is the best! She has been doing my eyebrows and lip waxing for almost 5 years now! She shapes them perfect and I often have people asking me where I go! Helen and the rest of the ladies are always very nice and enjoy to catch up when I go in!

Pretty good hair cutting saloon for month to month hair-​cut

Sunday afternoons are usually slower. I get my haircut here when I can’t make it to Oakland where my hairdresser is. I’ve gotten my haircut by two different ladies. I’m going to say that for the price, it’s great. They also don’t cut too much off if you don’t want to. I know a lot of places get scissor happy. I have thicker hair and I like to keep it full. They don’t take weight off/​thin your hair. The styling part of the job isn’t too great. I think it’s the products they use.
$ 20 haircut
I did not get a haircut from Helen and I still loved my trim.

In was my first time going there in March 2015. I went in for a trim and layers. Mindy cut my hair. I think she did an excellent job, I would definitely have do my hair again! I went on a Saturday after noon and there was no wait!

Excellent!
I’ve been seriously bored with my hair lately and needed a change. I work downtown and happened to walk by this business. Being that it was new to me I was scared of taking a risk, but I’m so glad I did! I went in and was greeted by Helen. I talked to her about getting a layered haircut and color. After reviewing their color selection, I went with brown/​burgandy mix. I was nervous about the change but ultimately it came out amazing! MUCH better than what I started with. She gave me layers that I loved and side swept bangs that I thought no hairdresser would ever get right. I’m SO happy to have found this place. The work was wonderful and the price was very reasonable. I have found my new hair salon!!!

I’ve been coming here for ~2−3 years and it’s about time I give this place a review.
I don’t like getting haircuts, so when I go to a salon, I’m rather picky. Before I came here, I was charged $ 40-​$ 60 for getting a couple inches cut off at another place I went to, but La Bella Salon NEVER charged me that much. My hair’s fairly long and I get my hair cut here twice every year, $ 20 each visit!
I recommend Queenie, she’s lovely! I never really play around with my hair or style it, but she has taught me a few tricks. She’s the only one I trust with my hair, she never cut past the length I want it to be. Just make sure to tell her how much and she’ll even ask you how much you’d like off while she’s cutting just to make sure you’re okay with it. If you’re like me, who dreads getting their hair cut, try this out and ask for Queenie!
They accept walk-​ins, but they can get busy sometimes so call ahead to make an appointment, I never had to wait more than 5 minutes with an appt! The only reason I rated 4 stars is b/​c I haven’t gotten my nails done here.
They have a small-​medium sized parking lot next to their building, I’m pretty sure it’s free. Also it’s within walking distance of San Jose State University.

I came out of the salon with a botched up hair cut. One side is noticeably longer than the other. All I asked was for a trim, and I even showed her how much to cut off! I’ve had good experiences here before, but she was to busy chatting it up to pay attention to my hair. Avoid the lady on the end with the asymmetrical bob!

Awesome! Whole heartedly. I’ll preface this with the fact that I was wary to come here based on other reviews. I was so pleasantly surprised.
We called ahead and were seen right away. The massage chairs were awesome.
The pedicure was the most thorough I’ve ever had! I don’t think my feet/​toenails have ever been so clean and tidy. The leg/​foot massage could have been a bit longer but it was definitely sufficient. For $ 15, a pedicure here is absolutely worth it. I’ll be back.
Highlights:
Clean
Friendly/​attentive: call ahead
Very thorough
Relaxing
Great value!

Yesterday, I was frantically finding an opened salon. Who knew that most are closed on Monday’s AND for Easter?! I was having an Elle Woods moment and totally needed and update on my three-​week old a-​line.
After much disappointment, I finally came across this gem on Unilocal and was thrilled it was by my work. I called and Helen told me my trim would be $ 18 for shampoo and styling. WHAT. I’ve never had a haircut this cheap. I quickly drove by and walked in. I barely sat down for a millisecond when Helen guided me over to the shampoo area. I got my hair shampooed and conditioned and then sat me on a chair.
She spent a LOT of time on my short hair! I told her exactly how I want it (don’t trim bangs, only trim the front to rid of split ends and cut the back) and she said okay. I was nervous as most of the photos on Unilocal are only nails so I wasn’t sure how the stylists would be. To my surprise when she turned me over, I LOVED IT! I’ve never said this about any cut I’ve ever had before.
Helen invited me back to get my nails done at a very decent price for Shellac and I’m going to take her up on that offer in about three weeks. :))
