I was leery about the new salon as I have been going to SOLE for many, many years and loved the Berkeley location, but this new space is amazing! The parking is sublime (often ran late for past appts at the old salon as I desperately searched for parking!) The place is a true sanctuary! Everyone at SOLE is warm, friendly and very professional. I am addicted to the AVEDA product line as no other products comes close to AVEDA quality in my opinion. Looking for a new salon? Make the move NOW. Tony and Guy (the owners) treat everyone like family!
