Javier's The Hair Salon & Day Spa

SO happy I found this place. Called on a Saturday to try and get squeezed in for a cut and color. Javier was nice enough to see me. He completely transformed my dry over processed hair into healthy dark locks. He also gave me the best haircut I think I've ever had. This was my first time here and I will definitely be back.

Went in for haircut. Haircut was good but was not expecting someone else to wash my hair. I was not expectjng to have have to tip the hair wash girl too. During my haircut twice the stylist seamed to be distraced the entire time. For the e cost I would expect complete attention. Instead I git "Your hair feels like straw" with no advice how to remedy it.

Very friendly & they use excellent hair products!

Javier is the best! He does killer Blonde and knows how to give you a show stopping cut. Whenever I am stopped and asked about my hair, it is because it was done by Javier. I am so happy that we have moved back into the Inland Empire area and I can make an appointment with him before my son's wedding!

I am always so pleased with my experience. Javier is always recommending a new style or color that keeps me looking very current. He uses the best products for color. I always get compliments on my hair color. I also find the atmosphere of the salon to be fun and up beat but professional. I also highly recommend Rita in the spa for all your skin care needs. She gives the best facial and does wonders on eyebrows. She is so thorough and calming to be with. I always feel so rested after my treatments with her.

I've been going to this place since 2012. Pam is the best. My hair loves her too

Super cute salon. I've been going to see Lorrie for years. She's the best.I've followed her from place to place and she's settled here :)

No one cuts hair like Javier. He is awesome! I have been getting my haircut by him for about 15 years.

I just got the BEST haircut and color I have had in over a year. Bianca looked at a pic I found and handled business. I see that this salon has $$$ but honestly I thought it was very reasonably priced. The ambiance is clean, spacious and at the same time intimate. I could not be more pleased. I found my Salon!

I decided to take dying my hair into my own hands... And I ended up with bad advice and grey and purple hair. I was so upset, especially since my wedding is in 3 months! Yikes! I called and they got me in an hour! Ashley was amazing! She was so knowledgable on how to properly color correct my hair without damage, and she took her time to make sure it turned out amazing! I am so happy I found this salon... And it's safe to say I will not be dying my hair anymore! The location is great and the inside is beautifully decorated and clean. Thanks again Ashley and staff. See you soon :)

Javier's is an amazing place to get your hair done at. The staff is super friendly and know how to do all types of hair. My hair is thick and hard to handle and Javier makes it look spectacular every time!

This was my first experience at Javier's. I received a color and I'm going back next week for my cut. I was able to get an appointment with Javier himself. Upon arriving I was checked in and offered a beverage. The building is a very attractively furnished house, with wood floors, open windows, and parking out front. They have a lovely room as their nail salon, and also one for facials, etc. There were lots of cheerful customers and the place felt happy. Looking forward to my haircut next week.

I really like this place. My daughter has biracial, curly thick very hard to manage hair. I brought her here with fried, dead ends. Just a mess. She came out with silky, shiny soft hair. Ends were clipped well but no too short. I will be going back soon with both my daughters. This is a gem of a place.

I moved to California about a year ago and had such a difficult time parting with my old hair stylist. I tried another salon in riverside and did not have success. I see my old hair stylist twice a year when I go back home to visit family in my home state but needed to find a stylist that can do what my hair in the meantime. I tried the salon today and had Carl and could not be happier! Such a great stylist and they had Goldwell products which is what I needed for my hair and everyone is very friendly and nice. Not to mention the salon is wonderful too! I will continue to go to Javier's!

Love this hair salon! Bianca is the best! I have extremely coarse, curly hair and she is the best I've ever come across at managing it! Super at color too! Great atmosphere and terrific prices. I highly recommend this salon!

This salon is graced with an excellent esthetician. Rita is not only great at what she does, but is also very professional in accommodating. I was referred to her by a friend, and I haven't gone elsewhere since. She does very natural looking eyelash extensions. I am often complimented on my lashes and I love how natural they look not to mention they don't cause any discomfort.

My favorite hair salon! Carl is the master at color, my hair always looks natural; not dull or brassy or monotone. Prices are reasonable and the environment is clean and comfortable. Gina is the esthitician and she is wonderful! Eyebrows for only $15, and she does an excellent, precise job.

Went to see Michelle. . My hair was down to mid back. .I wanted it cut super super short. . She was amazing. .I showed her a picture of what I wanted. .. She took it from there and did an amazing job! Showed me how to style it. . Couldn't have had a better cut!

I came here the other day because a friend has been getting great cuts and my stylist recently moved to San Diego. I also got a great cut but remembered why I had tried Javier years before and moved on. He's good with the scissors but clueless with color. I ended up with ugly blond stripes in my coppery base. Never did Javier check the lightening progress, leaving that up to his shampoo girl. So maybe the highlight tone is her fault (as well as his). However, the tacky stripes are all on him. I gave it an evening to grow on me, but just couldn't stand it. Went back the next morning. Shampoo-girl thought a shampoo and quick 5-minute rinse of who-knows-what would fix it "until I came in next time." (As if.) When I made a stand against the stripes their solution was simply to give me a solid color. Sooo, for $115 I got a decent cut and a color job I could have done myself. I should have known this was a possibility when I saw that every woman waiting for him to start or finish their 'do had the wrong color--too dark or too yellow or brassy. Even my friend's color is too dark; it ages her. Overall, the way I was treated (eyes rolled more than once when I explained, nicely then firmly, that stripes wouldn't do, nor would some little 5-minute rinse) was too easy to remember from decades ago. Javier makes his disdain for Riverside vocally clear. Maybe that's why he does things like tacky stripes. He thinks we're tacky people.

My hair cut and color look amazing. This was my first time there, Javier did an amazing job.

Many moons ago, I would travel miles to have Javier cut my hair! I lived in Fullerton and would drive all the way to Riverside. I have not seen him for a long time. The last time I was at Javier's was about six years ago when visiting in California (I have moved out of state), Even then, I received the best hair cut ever! He is an artist. My sister will be in town soon and I am having her go to Javiers salon.

Where to begin.... This place is fabulous! I ALWAYS have a great time at Javier's Salon and Day Spa. Bianca does my hair... she's amazing! Not only does she listen to what I want to do, she will also give me honest advice on whether it is the appropriate color/cut for my hair type. I can't stand going to hair salons that are afraid to cut hair. When I say I want you to cut 8 inches off, I actually want 8 inches off. This lady knows how to deliver. On top of the quality of service that I receive (from my wash to finished style) the staff are always friendly and always include you in conversation. Let's face it, we also go for the conversation and laughs. I highly recommend this place to my friends and any review readers. Just go.

Pamela is the BEST hair styler I ever knew 👍 she is professional, creative and on top of that gives student discount 😉

I have been getting the same style cut on and off for years now and I just left Javier's for the very first time. Simply put, he gave me the best haircut of my LIFE. And he did it so quickly and made it seem so effortless. He and his staff did not leave a single thing to be desired, I'm so thrilled I found him! Hey Javier, you did such a good job turning me into Victoria Beckham, if I bring you my boyfriend can you please make him David? ;)

Just got my gel manacure and Tina is the best, personable and professional. Highly recommend that you give her business. (Appointments only, she is a busy women :-D )

I don't like to bash ppl's profession but need to share so others don't experience this. Bad experience with a Pamela! 25 years experience & I knew more about color...I had to dye my own hair! 👎

Gina does the best lashes in the IE!

Best Hair stylist – I started going to Carl at Javier's about 8 years ago. My hair always looks great! I now live in Las Vegas and I still drive to Riverside to get my hair done by Carl.

Javier -- the best sylist EVER- you will not be disappointed – I have been a customer of Javier's for almost 15 years. He knows a lot about what works & what doesn't with every type of hair. What I appreciate most about his talent is the vision he has for his clients. He takes many things into consideration when making an assesment such as face shape, skin coloring, hair condition & of course, hair type. I appreciate the time he spends with me before he begins cutting or coloring my hair. You will not be disappointed-- my hair always looks amazing when I leave the salon.

The best present ever! – This year for Christmas my son's gave me a gift certificate for a spa day at Javier's.I started my day off with a great pedicure.Alicia is very warm and friendly.She is a great manicurist.I really loved when she massaged my legs with a mango scrub and the warm paraffin dip was awesome.It left my feet feeling soft for a week.I had my haircut by Michelle.She gave me a great haircut that I would have never picked out for myself.I get so many compliments on it now.It looks so much healthier and feels so much lighter.I ended my day with a relaxing facial by Rita.Her room was decorated elegantly and smelled of warm vanilla and citrus.She was very gentle and thorough with my facial.It was a treat to have my head and hands massaged at the end.It was a great way to end my holidays.I will definetly be back!

haircut just the way i like it – i started getting my hair cut by alina around 5 years ago. I use to get it done by a barber, but always had the problem of ingrown hairs. I dont have that problem anymore. alina is a great stylist. When she shampoos my hair it feels like a massage!!! I look forward to getting my hair done. she greets me with a friendly smile and offfers me a cup of coffee. I highly recommend her!

Great Salon Experience – i have been going to Javier's for approximately 6 years. I get my hair done by Alina. I get it colored, cut shampooed, and styled. My favorite part is the shampoo ahhh so relaxing. The conversation is always great and i always walk out feeling beautiful. I have naturaly curly hair which she makes look fantastic. From time to time she has straightened it and given me that just rolled out of bed sassy hair look. (my husband loves it) Everyone is so friendly I always look forward to going there. I also have had facials and a massage at the salon. I look forward to getting my facial and eyelash extensions by Rita. Again she is so friendly and makes you feel comfortable. If your looking for a good salon check out Javiers Salon.

I love my hair! – Do you want fantastic natural looking highlights? Would you like a hair cut that allows you to get up in the morning and wash & go? No fuss? No blowdrying? Do want to receive plenty of compliments and envious stares? Well do what I did. Get your hair done by ALINA. As simple as that, and your on your way to your most sexiest, head turning hair style ever. Good Luck and Happy Hair Snipping!!! By far the best stylist I've ever been to!

Beauty from head to toe!! I love this place! – I have been a satisfied cutomer of Javier's Salon for over 5 years. The salon atmosphere is very warm and inviting. They have a variety of hairstylists to fit everyone's needs. Their hairstylists are Vidal Sasoon trained and always up to date on the most advanced hair techniques. My hairstylist Alina is very sweet and a great hairstylist. She is very creative and always does a wonderful job on my hair. My haircut always looks great and my color stays rich for weeks. I have recieved so many compliments, even my husband noticed and had something nice to say! I have had facials, eyelash extensions, waxing, manicures, pedicures, acrylic nails, and even a massage. Everyone is always friendly, very professional, and extremely helpful. They go out of their way to make sure your salon experience is positive and relaxing. I feel like a beautiful new woman when I leave.

Alina at Javier's hair salon – Alina did a wonderful job and cut my hair exactly the way I asked. The perm was also perfect allowing me to brush my hair with ease and not spend my usual hour combing it! She is the best and while I live out of town, she came highly recommended, and I will be calling on her when I am in need of another trim or perm. She has a great personality which also made the visit to the salon fun!
