What we do
Balayage
01Hand-painted color built around how your hair actually falls, blended so the grow-out looks intentional instead of stripey.
Color & highlights
02Full color, partial highlights, or a tone correction, mixed and applied by the same person who checks it before you leave.
Cuts & styling
03A cut shaped to how you actually wear your hair day to day, finished with a style that shows you the fall of it.
Blowouts
04A polished blowout with volume and shine that holds, for a night out or just a Tuesday that needs one.
Keratin & smoothing
05A smoothing service that cuts down frizz and styling time while keeping the hair's natural movement, not flattening it.
Special-occasion styling
06Styling for weddings, photos, or any day where the hair has to hold up under a camera and a long night.
Not sure what to ask for? Call — we’ll talk it through.
Call to bookSame hands every time
Your color and cut are handled by Amanda directly, so your formula and history stay in one place.
Color checked in daylight
Tone is reviewed against your hair in the salon's natural light before you leave the chair.
Notes kept between visits
What worked last appointment is recorded and referenced, so each visit builds on the last instead of starting over.

One stylist, so nothing gets lost between visits
Amanda Marrufo Hair is built around a single chair and the notes that go with it — what tone lifted right last time, how your ends held up, what you said you wanted more of. The room is bright and unfussy, painted walls and good mirror light, the kind of space where color work is easy to see clearly before it's rinsed. Clients who started with a cut tend to come back for the color, and the ones who came for color stay for the consistency. Nothing here is rushed to the next chair, because there isn't one.
“I always look forward to my appointments with Amanda! She delivers excellent customer service and has such great attention to detail.”
“It’s been a few years now that Amanda has been doing my hair. (Cut & color) We’ve known each other for years but she started doing my hair here in San Diego.”

good to know
- How do you match a color to what I actually want?
- We look at reference photos against your hair's current tone and texture in the room, talk through upkeep, and mix the formula from there. Nothing gets applied until the plan matches what you described.
- Can I switch from another stylist and expect consistency?
- Yes — the first appointment is where we build your formula and cut notes from scratch, so every visit after that starts from a record instead of a guess.
- How do I get on the schedule?
- Reach out to book directly with Amanda. Because it's a single chair, appointments are set individually rather than through a large front desk, so booking ahead helps secure your preferred time.
