Booked a haircut appointment for my mom with Karen and she loved it! She said it was the best haircut she’s had in years. Thank you Karen! ❤️

I can’t recommend Atousa enough. I’m naturally a dark blonde and hadn’t touched my hair in over a year, so I was a little nervous going in. She really took the time to listen to what I wanted, but also added her own expert touch and I’m so glad she did. Her technique is incredible, especially w/ blondes. She knows exactly how to create dimension & brings everything to life without it looking overdone. My hair looks fresh, natural, & so well blended. You can tell she truly understands color & has a real gift for it. I’ll definitely be going back to her! Also everyone in this salon is super sweet.

I had my hair cut by Cynthia the other day, and it looks amazing! I have fine, curly hair that had too much texture on the ends and looked super awkward when I came to see her, but I left with a beautiful, precisely cut blunt bob.The shape is just perfect she knew exactly where to add weight and where to add very subtle texture that gave my hair movement while still keeping it full and blunt around the perimeter. Cynthia is very experienced and precise, and I felt very confident in her chair. She was also so friendly and attentive. She listened very carefully and made sure every one of my hair concerns was addressed.I’m writing this review a couple of days after the haircut, so I’ve already washed and styled it at home, and it still looks gorgeous! Let me tell you, I gave myself a full blowout, and it literally took just 10 minutes.I’m very pleased, and I’ll definitely be returning to see Cynthia in a couple of months.P.S. The other stylists were also very friendly and chatty, and the atmosphere in the salon is wonderful. I really enjoyed my experience with Honey & Hive.

Amazing job Atousa... been looking for a long term hair stylist for my hair. She is the only one who can make my hair the way I like. Heaven sent. Thank you

Best service and experience with ATOUSA!! I’m an amateur to salons, but she made me feel like I’ve known her forever and SO confident afterwards. I got a beautiful balayage to which she absolutely killed it - in 2 HOURS!! Felt like a bombshell ;) any of your needs you MUST request her 😝

Got a curly cut from Dara and she absolutely nailed it!!! She’s hilarious and such a good vibe to be around. I am so happy with my new cut and will be 100% going back to Dara for all other haircuts!

2026-01-23T03:15:31.762Z

I came in today to get my hair done by Dara and she did amazing. I came in about a month or two ago with a hair dye disaster and she has made my hair look better than I could ever imagine. I came back for a second time today to get my roots fixed and she did such an amazing job I look like a natural blond. Dara also gave me a quick trim and I have gotten so many compliments on my hair cut. If you want to get your hair done you have to have Dara do it.

This salon is chic and so welcoming! I appreciate seeing how the owner makes a genuine effort to improve the space for her team and for their clients. Karen is my go-to for taking care of my hair and getting it the way I’d like it every time! It’s always a joy catching up with her every month and getting the 5-star treatment from her. It’s worth the drive to see her for a clean cut!

2026-01-19T20:29:44.141Z

I go here for a men's haircut and shampoo. I have been seeing Karen for over two years now and she is great.Karen has done both clipper and scissor cuts, and knows exactly how to cut my hair to get the best result.Karen is nice and attentive, and somehow knows when I am in a talkative mood or there more to decompress from work and relax quietly.I'd highly recommend Karen to anyone out there that is looking for a new stylist.

Great experience with Atousa last week! She really knows her way around hair. The Salon is super welcoming and was buzzing with energy when I came in on Valentine’s Day! Will definitely come back again :)))

2025-02-17T04:30:17.213Z

5 stars for Atousa! She squeezed me in on one days notice for a haircut. When I arrived I admitted to wanting highlights too and she made it happen. I LOVE my cut and highlights. She was fun to talk to and did a great job. Prices are more than fair. While there I heard her giving amazing advice to another customer on how to make a dramatic color change. She clearly is super knowledgeable on coloring techniques. I'm glad to have found a new stylist! I'll be back.

Jennifer has been doing my hair for about 2 years now and she always does an amazing job and exactly what i ask for! Even after 4-5 months my color still looks so fresh! I highly recommend her for any of your hair needs 🩷🩷🩷

2025-02-16T16:37:06.090Z

I recently saw Jennifer for a cut, balayage, and root color. I have long, thick hair so it was a fairly lengthy appointment. Her upbeat and fun personality made the time fly by, and she constantly checked in to make sure I was well informed and liking everything as we went along. She is very knowledgeable on coloring/balayage, and I will definitely be back! 10/10 would recommend 😊

2025-02-14T19:49:48.744Z

Jessica has been my hair guru for years! She does her thing every time I get it done! I have never received so many compliments in my life until she became my go to person. If you need a pick me up have her be your stylist! She never fails!! She will have you looking fabulous!

2025-02-13T22:55:10.919Z

I love Honey and Hive Salon! I have been going there for a couple of years now for a highlight and trim every 8 weeks or so, and Dara is an amazing stylist! Everyone is very kind and professional. Highly recommend.

2025-02-13T01:57:11.902Z

I have been going to Jess for a few years. She is only the second stylist in my life I have returned to again and again. She’s highly skilled and makes me look like a million bucks (before and after photos to prove it). Also she’s so easy and fun to talk to. I’ve followed her to a couple of places and Honey and Hive is pretty cool too. I’ve met many other stylists there and they are all great people. I also love that the salon is super themed but also totally classy.

2025-02-12T16:45:17.855Z

I love Honey and Hive Salon. I come here to see Karen, she's the best! She cuts my kids hair too! My kids have straight & some curls. I have really curly hair. Karen always does an amazing job! I also love all the hair products she recommends for all of our hair types.

2025-02-11T05:09:30.393Z

I have been going to see Karen for some time now and have always had a positive and pleasant experience. She is wonderful individual and I am always left beyond happy with my haircut. She always has suggestions and tips for maintaining it. Would highly recommend.

2025-02-10T07:48:18.244Z

My teenage daughter and I both got haircuts from Karen. She did a great job and did exactly what we wanted. My daughter wanted a wolfcut and Karen delivered, she loved it. I brought my son on a different day as he is younger and requires attention, she was so good with him. We are definitely going to be regulars here and will be requesting Karen. Thank you so much Karen!

2025-02-10T05:38:51.403Z

Jess is phenomenal! She does an exceptional job with cut and color. Highly recommend Jess!

2025-02-09T21:13:25.624Z

Where to start! Jessica is absolutely, positively fantastic especially with color. I’ve been coming here for years. I’m probably a challenge as I switch up color all the time. (Red, blonde, or a combination of both) Each time Jessica does an excellent job! I had to take a stack of her business cards to hand out as people are always complementing my hair.

2025-02-08T23:58:52.110Z

Jessica Gonzales has been cutting my hair for as long as I can remember. She gave both my boys their first haircuts and now at ages 14 and 16 they won’t go anywhere but to her. We have followed Jessica to many different salons over the years and Honey and Hive is by far my favorite. It is quaint, and perfectly located in downtown La Mesa. They offer coffee and snacks and have a wonderful atmosphere. I am happy that Jessica landed here!

2025-02-08T23:52:37.538Z

The best hair salon in La Mesa! Booking appointments is so easy and the staff is amazing. Jessica is great at hair extensions and color matching! I recommend this salon to everyone!

2025-02-08T02:21:57.767Z

I was stuck in a rut with my hair any then I found Jess! She brought my hair back to life, from being previously damaged and improperly colored. She is an excellent colorist and it shows both in her energy and results! I feel like my hair is in good hands, and I trust her! We even tried balayage and it came out so good! I didn’t even know my hair could pull it off. Thanks Jess! I’m blessed to sit in your chair

2025-02-07T21:23:07.817Z

Karen has given me a pixie cut three times now and she always does an amazing job! Lovely conversation, 11/10 head massage. Overall a wonderful experience!

2025-02-07T18:50:10.359Z

Jess is our go-to gal! She’s amazing 🤍

2025-02-07T18:36:27.793Z

I actually looked for a salon in my neighborhood that specifically did curly cuts because I'm very very picky about my hair. The hair stylist I use charges different prices depending on the service that you get I couldn't select two different price points everyone at the salon is very nice.

2025-02-06T23:34:09.743Z

In need of a new stylist and salon, I thought I'd give Honey & Hive a try. I was scheduled with Vanessa, and she was awesome! She's a true professional. From the consultation to the color/cut/style she was attentive and engaged. My hair looks better then I expected. I recommend both Vanessa and this little gem of a salon!

2025-02-06T18:02:49.747Z

Suzanne has done my hair since 2020 and always does an amazing job! I cannot recommend this salon enough. All the staff is phenomenal and super friendly! I love my hair!!!

2025-02-05T14:04:32.312Z

Dara is amazing …talented and skilled! My color is always on point and cuts are perfect. Fun vibe .. upbeat and happy ! Love her … love the salon and all the stylists are great !!!
