Mon Nov 02 2009I found Teresa on this site and had to check her out! She is just as great as the reviews let on...maybe better! She gave me beautiful highlights and a nice cut for a very reasonable price. Best part is that she offers snacks and beverages to her clients and makes you feel so comfortable!

Wed Oct 21 2009I have been seeing Teresa for about 2 years now and I will never go to anyone else. She listens to what you want, talks you out of bad decisions and really gets to know your limitations and "hair personality" (as she puts it). Everytime I go in she has an idea to make a slight change if I am game, if not she does exactly what I request. Best of all, she offers free bang trims to her returning clients. I love that...keeps me from cutting them myself! Her prices are the cheapest I've found for her quality of work. I seriously don't think she charges enough for how great she is! You won't be disappointed!

Tue Oct 20 2009Teresa is one of those girls that within 10 seconds of meeting, you just want to be her best friend. She is so full of life and funny stories...she will keep you entertained and laughing the whole time you are there. I usually don't like to get my hair done because I hate to sit and be bored, and also because my hair appts usually take hours. With Teresa I didn't feel that way. The time literally flew by and she was quicker than my old girl. She's also awesome because she offers her clients yummy drinks and snacks and has funny little books to read if you don't feel like talking! I also thought it was cool that she offers her clients 10 dollars off their next service for each new client they send her. Little deals like that are nice in these times! I could go on and on about her personality...but her hairstyling is amazing. She is very affordable and very good at what she does. She gave me beautiful high and low lights and a new cut and style. Go to her now! Highly reccomended!

Thu Jul 02 2009I had been going to an extremely expensive and VERY well known salon since 6th grade. But my stylist moved back to Norcal and I was stranded without someone to do my hair. I am very particular about my hair products and who I let do my hair,; so I was really skeptical when I went in to see Teresa. I have long, blonde hair and that can sometimes be a lot of work. But Teresa did a fantastic job!! I am always happy whenever I leave! Not only does she make my hair look amazing she charges a very reasonable price. I am always laughing whenever I leave and have felt comfortable in there since my first visit. Thank you Teresa! You wont ever feel the need to cheat on your hairdresser again because you wont want to get your hair cut anywhere else. She actually listens to what you want, and gives great advice!

Mon Mar 02 2009I LOVE Teresa. I have always wandered from salon to salon searching for someone who had an excellent understanding in modern hair trends, excellent customer service, and a genuine kind persona. She is all and more. My hair always receives complements thanks to her. If you care about the way you look and want a sincere opinion on hair then she is your girl. Not only does she always go out of her way to make sure you are happy but she is very flexible with times and does make up too. Thank you Teresa!

Wed Feb 18 2009I've gone to Teresa for years. She's a great person and an amazingly talented stylist! She knows hair and how to make it look good. I am extremely picky about my hair and wouldn't go to someone that doesn't do a great job! If you want your hair to look great with the care of a highly talented expert, then Teresa's your girl!!

Mon Dec 15 2008I now live in Orange County and I STILL drive down to San Diego to have Teresa do my hair!! She did my hair for almost 3 years before I moved and I am so afraid to have anyone else touch my hair! She is EXACTLY what I look for in a hair stylist and does a perfect job on my hair. I have dark brown hair that I keep pretty blonde and she is able to get it that perfect shade without ever being brassy...And most important when I finally decided to take the step and put low lights in, she executed perfectly. She is a friend thatI love seeing and makes it so easy to see because I can tell her if I am pressed for time or if I feel like hanging out for a while and she works accordingly. Easy to work with and completely confidence I think are what you look for in a stylist/colorist and she is exactly that. A big thing I avoid when I get my hair down is stuck up salons and Teresea could not be further from that!! I heart my hair!!

Sat Nov 15 2008I love Teresa. I love her location. I love her office/station. I love the cut. I love the color. What's not to love? I have been to her once but I know that I will be coming back to her from here on out. I have long blonde hair. I'm pretty picky about the color of my hair and she did a great job. The color is nice and vibrant. She also did a great cut. You can tell she uses good scissors. She does free baings which is great because I always ended up trying to trim it myself but now I don't have to! She's very personable and easy to talk to. In fact, the time flew by because we couldn't stop talking! Her "office" is really cool. There are about 30 other beauty stations there and she's decorated hers really cute. Basically, she's the best!

Mon Nov 03 2008I heard about Teresa through a friend of a friend who always got her hair done with Teresa. My friends hair always looked great so I got Teresa's information and made an appointment. Right when I got to my appointment I knew getting my hair done w/ her was a good decision. She was very nice. I let her know what I wanted to get done and she gave me some suggestions as well. I got some highlights and a really cute layered cut. I absolutely LOVED it! I have been getting my hair done with Teresa ever since. She is very professional and keeps a very clean studio. It's always a great experience and I have recommended her to many of my friends who also are happy with the results they get.

Thu Oct 30 2008I wanted to get my hair colored and was tired of doing it myself so I searched on here for stylists and when I saw all the positive reviews on Teresa I wanted to give her a try. I am SO glad I did! I found Teresa to be an absolute doll. Not only is she amazing at her profession but she has a fantastic personality and makes you feel very comfortable from the minute you walk in until you walk out.... looking beautiful I might add! Once I met her I decided I want to have my hair cut as well (I didn't make an appointment for a haircut at the same time as my coloring because honestly I am so picky about my hair I have a hard time trusting someone to cut it) but after talking with Teresa I immediately knew I could trust her. She didn't have time to do a cut with my color, so she gave me a nice trim and some cute side bangs and made an appointment for me to come back a couple days later to finish the cut. I wanted long, chunky layers and to keep the length of my long hair. She gave me ... Read more

Mon Oct 27 2008I am very skeptical about who does my hair so I researched and read a ton of reviews and found Teresa. She is absolutely amazing! Shes young and knows what shes doing and did an excellent job on not only cutting my hair to the style I desired, but coloring it profoundly as well. Shes great at what she does and is also super friendly making the time spent with her fun. I would highly recommend her to anyone!

Sun Oct 12 2008I recently moved to San Diego and like a lot of people, I was worried about finding a hair stylist who is affordable, talented, and friendly. After reading all of the positive reviews, I called Teresa for an appointment. She is absolutely fantastic. The first time I met her, she was very personable and friendly. It was like catching up with a friend you haven't seen for awhile. She works around your schedule and makes you feel like you have the best hair :) It's nice to have a stylist that really listens to what you want and also makes suggestions when you want something different done to your hair. She knows how everyone is trying to save money where they can now, so she is very affordable. I recently went back for highlights and a cut and once again, she did an amazing job. I had never been to one of the studios that she works in before, but I really liked it. It's very cute and I liked it more than being in a busy salon. Thanks Teresa for doing such a great job!

Tue Sep 16 2008After living here a year I finally found my stylist. I tried teresa after seeing all her wonderful reviews here and i was not let down. The student discount 20% was fantastic. Gave me a great cut and style. And unlike most places I have been too here she didnt charge me an additional fee for flat ironing my hair like some salons!

Thu Sep 11 2008I read the reviews about Teresa and decided to give her a call. I have tried many other stylists and most are egotistical. Not Teresa. She is down to earth and easy to talk to. Although she is very talented, she is not a snob. I left with beautiful highlights and lowlights. Her prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend her!!!!

Sun Sep 07 2008I just saw Teresa a few weeks ago for a half head of keratin extensions and I am so happy with my hair!! The extensions are great quality and Teresa worked very quickly. Best of all, she cut the extensions to blend with my previous haircut and she is very affordable. I used to pay around $700 for the same thing and Teresa only charged me $400!! I went back to Teresa this week for a highlight and cut and she checked on my extensions for me and gave me a few pointers on how to better care for them! She really goes above and beyond my expectations and takes the time to answer any questions and educate me on my hair. I really like that about her! Highly recommended!

Sun Aug 24 2008I found Teresa here on citysearch and I decided to give her a try. I love my hair! She put high and low lights and a killer cut! Best of all, she isn't too pricey. Her salon was a little hard to find....but too cute! I really like her and I already booked my next appointment with her! Call her now!

Sun Aug 17 2008Not only does she do amazing blonde highlights and haircuts, but she preserved the quality of my hair and gave me a few tips to repair and keep it healthy! I am a full time mother of 3 and the only day that I can go to the salon she doesn't work, but she made an exception for me for our first appointment! I thought that was so cool and very accomodating, since my husband is only home the 2 days that she has off (sunday and monday). I'm not sure that she will do that for everyone, or if she'll be very pleased with me for letting you all know, but if you explain your situation she will work hard to accomodate you. Thank you, Teresa, not only for making me beautiful, but for being so kind and understanding. It is much appreciated!

Wed Aug 06 2008I just love this salon so much. It is located inside of an office building on the first floor and every stylist has their own room. Teresa shares her room with a gentleman who also works in LA and the two of them are a comic routine for sure! I love the way she did my hair and she styled it so well so that I felt beautiful when I left! She even suggested extensions for me and I went back a few days later and she put them in and cut/styled them also! I love my new look and I love her! Two thumbs up!!

Sat Jul 19 2008I was looking for a good hair salon, knowing how picky I am with my hair, and I didn't want to go somewhere where they would mess up my hair or I would leave feeling unhappy. Then I visited citysearch and read her reviews, which were all really good, so I decided to give Teresa a call. I was scared at first because it was my first time getting my hair professionally done in a salon, but it was a great experience! I got highlights and lowlights( three colors) and she even gave me a trim for free! She is very personable and fun to talk to making your visit even more welcoming. And most of all, very affordable! I'm 17 and I only have a part-time job so paying such a cheap price for a great job on my hair was very convenient PLUS a student discount. I highly reccomend going to Teresa and I will definitely be going to her from now on. Love you Teresa!

Sun Jul 13 2008I have been going to Teresa since she first moved here about 2 years ago. In that time, she has completely transformed my hair into a work of art!! She has a great creative eye and is always recommending new things for me like highlights and new layers, etc. I love that every time I go there she reinvents me!! I sent 2 of my girlfriends to her and my husband and they all love her too!! If you haven?t tried her yet, do it!! She is the best kept secret of San Diego! I just hope that she doesn?t get too booked from all these great reviews!

Sun Jul 06 2008I found Teresa at her old salon in Kensington last year and I have been very happy with her work. I had dry, "over processed," and damaged blond hilites when I came to her and she got me on the path to healthy blond hair that I have today. She even recommended vitamins to improve the quality of my hair and to get it to grow faster! She's funny, amazing, and best of all, she won't rip you off like some salons in this area will. She is so much fun! I urge you all to call her right now!

Sun Jul 06 2008When I moved down to San Diego one of my many worries was finding the right hair stylist. You never know what you're gonna get when you're trying someone out for the first time. I got lucky with Teresa, not only does she give you a good haircut she is super friendly and makes you feel completely at ease. She is also very professional and accomodating to her clients needs. I love my hair, and for me a great hair cut gives me better confidence and thanks to Teresa I have that. I highly recommend her because I know what it's like to get a bad haircut and leave a salon unhappy, but thanks to Teresa I have fabulous hair!

Tue Jun 24 2008Yeah, I said it! AFFORDABLE EXTENSIONS!! I was quoted by 3 other stylists to get the individual bonded extensions (like great lengths) for anywhere between $700-$1000 for my whole head and Teresa did them for just $375. That included blending the extensions to my own hair!! I honestly could not believe it! She uses really high quality hair too! I have never been so happy or excited! I only have to go in 2 to 3 times a year to get them filled too! I absolutely love that I found her! Go to her now! Consultations are free and only take a few minutes!

Sun Jun 22 2008I found Teresa on here last week and decided to give her a try. I'm a guy and I was a little worried going to an actual "stylist" instead of going to a barbershop....I was worried that it would make me girly or something! But she is great! She made me feel really comfortable and talked sports with me. Her men's cuts are only $25 which is cheaper than most barbershops and it includes a 15 minute scalp massage and tea tree treatment that made my scalp all tingly. I almost fell asleep! The salon is cool, she has her own room right by the side door so it's easy to get to and you don't have to deal with a bunch of other stylists and women running around. I urge all men to go to teresa. She is fast, inexpensive, entertaining, and very talented!

Fri Jun 20 2008I went to Teresa for a color correction from a home job gone bad and she made my hair beautiful again. She listened to what I wanted and got me in and out in a timely manner. I will definitely be seeing her again in a few weeks for a touchup!

Sun Jun 15 2008I found Teresa on citysearch and decided to give her a try. I have to admit that I was a little scared as anyone would be when trying someone new...but within our first 2 minutes of talking, I knew I was in good hands. I loved that she listened to me, considered my demands, and then gave me a few different options of what we could do and how it would look each way. This chick really knows her stuff! I was impressed by her ease in explaining different products and types of haircolor and the benefits and disadvantages of each. I never knew any of this...which is actually scary! What impressed me the most is that she told me the reason why she explains what she is doing and what she is putting in my hair is because if for any reason I went to anyone else, she felt it was important that I know what my hair history is. She also said that it is important to be well educated in things that directly affect me and my image. I thought that was really cool! Out of a score from 1 to 20, I give Ter... Read more

Sun Jun 15 2008Teresa is very attentive and listens to exactly what you want. I have never left unhappy or uncertain about the way I look. She has always done exactly what I ask and my hair never looks less then amazing! Not only does she do a great job but she is very knowlegable and always has great advice. Teresa has given me the best service at the most reasonable prices and I highly recommend her.

Thu Jun 12 2008I had the most HORRIBLE haircut and thought that nothing and no one could fix it, until I went to Teresa! Not only does she walk into any situation with a positive attitude, but she has the skill and talent to back up all of her ideas. She is a great listener and really strives and succeeds in understanding her clients wants and needs. She exceeded each and every one of my expectations (which were already so high) and now I have a haircut I never thought i'd be able to pull of and that I am in love with. She understands hair and style and takes her time with every cut. To top off her great talent and her genuine care for her clients, this woman has the greatest personality. She is for sure a little firecracker which I love! Teresa puts passion in everything she does and that is so hard to find. She is without a doubt the best hairstylist I have EVER been to!

Thu Jun 12 2008Teresa is the best not only does she do a great job on my cut and color. She has a fantastic personality, my time with her is really pleasant and I truly enjoy her companie during my visit. If you are looking for a new hairstylist visit her you will be verry happy.

Thu Jun 12 2008i am a student at sdsu and like most of my friends, money is tight. what i love the most about teresa is that she gives students a 20% discount on top of her already low prices. for a full highlight and cut (includes styling!) it was $95 but then she took 20% off of that so it was like $77. such a value and her work is incredible. i'm in a sorority and i sent all my sisters to her and everyone is happy and can actually afford to go back on time and not months after they are due for a touchup!!

Thu Jun 12 2008teresa is by far the best stylist in san diego. she just moved here from the super trendy san francisco and has brought her style to mission valley! after many bad experiences with other stylists, it was such a relief to go to her and be relaxed, and leave looking and feeling great. and her prices are way cheap, she even gives you three cards when you leave, and tells you to hand out two to friends, keep one for yourself and if you refer those two people, she will do one haircut for half price!! i love that i can afford her! i got highlights, lowlights, and a haircut for $110.00 when i used to pay around $200 or more at other salons! call her now!

Thu Jun 12 2008I went to Salon Kensington for a highlight and cut and my stylist was Teresa Piazza. She took time to make sure everything was right and doesn't rush. She devotes her time to the client she is with at the time entirely. This is the second time she has done my hair and both times it has turned out exactly how I wanted it. I am a previous client at Robert Cromeans and have paid twice as much for hair that ends up not looking like I wanted. The Salon itself is very cute. It has a twist on a tuscan villa which I thought was very cool. I am very picky about my hair and have been nothing but happy with the results. I am definitely one of Teresa's new devoted clients!

Thu Jun 12 2008I LOVE HER!! She is such a great stylist! The first time I visited her was for my wedding consultation and i liked her so much that i left my old stylist and started coming to her for color and highlights and cuts! She has a very confident approach to any situation, i really think she could do anything you threw at her. she went to paul mitchell school, trained with their celebrity team, and studied with a guy named yosh who is apparently a hairstylist legend! not only does she do great work, she is just a great person! she makes me double over in pain from laughter and doubles as my psychologist! if you haven't experienced her talent or personality yet, then call her immediately! but make sure you call her cell phone for an appt cause she books her own appts. her number is 925-550-2569.
