I've been going to Dearinger Salon for over 12 yrs. They're a great team and always do a great job with my hair and color. My hair style preferences change from month to month, and they're always willing to make it happen (haircut, style, highlights, lowlights, touchups).I love them and think you'll love them too!

I had a perfect haircut with Mark! I have pretty curly hair that was in desperate need of a trim. Mark made some great suggestions and made sure I felt comfortable with what he was going to. My hair is looking good and feeling healthy :)

Jocelyn was so wonderful and patient with what I was asking for. She cut my hair exactly how I had imagined it. I wanted to get bangs, and she helped me figure out the best way to get everything that I wanted!Service: Haircut

I was new to San Diego and was struggling to find a hair salon that I could trust with my hair. Most hair salons don’t know how to work with curly hair, but DeaRinger specializes in maintaining someone’s natural textures and hair type. When I found DeaRinger, they had the right products for me, and made my hair healthy again. Jocelyn is also super nice and helpful! You can count on herServices: Curly hair

I came for an appointment that I made (first time client) and I am in disbelief. I did not get the name of the person assigned to do my hair but I would beware of this place. The hairstylist I was assigned to was so *unbelievably* unhelpful. I showed him ONE picture of what I wanted and explained EXACTLY to the point what I wanted. I told him that I was worried about going too short so I wanted to trim two inches and see how the length was, and if I wanted it shorter, to just trim another inch ("you can't cut less, but you can always cut more" as many, many other hairstylist have told me before.) He made up every single excuse as to why he couldn't do that. He didn't give me any suggestions or try to help me make a decision, he just kept telling me "you really just seem like you don't know what you want" and "are you sure you don't want to just take some more time and think about it?" I mean seriously, he kept INSISTING that I didn't know what I wanted. After 10 minutes of trying to explain to him and begging for him to just trim my hair, I left. I just cannot wrap my head around the fact that any hairstylist would have a paying client in their chair with the most simple thing any hairstylist could do and insist they leave. Don't waste your time like I did, they'll probably just tell you that what you asked for was too complicated and tell you to leave. Biggest waste of an afternoon/taking time off work!

Oh how I love Jocelyn. She is absolutely meticulous and so so kind. She listens to what you want, she takes her time, she is compassionate and she does amazing haircuts. To be honest, nobody has ever cut my hair like Jocelyn does, I get so many compliments and leave the salon each time with a skip in my step. The photos of my after are so beautiful. I highly recommend Jocelyn l, she is awesome.

Mark was very helpful when I came in last year to donate my hair. He was very knowledgable with wavy/curly hair and gave me a short haircut that complemented my face well. I have been to too many hair salons and let them cut it how they thought would be best and hated it. I came in again for a shorter but versatile haircut and Mark gave me a lovely haircut with helpful tips and suggestions on how to style it. I will never go to another salon, Dearinger is the best!

First time at this salon. Very low-key, no-frills, very clean and Covid protocols strictly in place. I got an appointment with Mark Dearinger and I think he's great. Full consultation and a superb cut and blow out. Plus he is charming and fun to talk to. I'll be back for sure!

This salon is the real deal, so you don't have to go to L.A., N.Y., London.... The owner has been on the "cutting edge" for decades and his stylists and colorists are extremely skilled. As a customer for 20 years, I sit down on my throne and the pampering magic begins: an astute consultation (I'm always open because I don't know the latest styles--but they DO!), aromatic products for a wash and scalp massage, and then their cut and style (also with top-of-the-line products). The cuts grow out perfectly because they follow natural hair patterns and triple-check it (Vidal Sassoon background). And during COVID, they're vaccinated and wear masks, and even offered an outdoor cut, but it was breezy and spotless indoors. And I've never found a better root touch-up than their WOW product (I use red, they also carry browns, blonds, and blacks). I've been selfish ("my little secret") not to leave a review sooner, but this business deserves to thrive.

Been a client here for several years and I'm always impressed with the level of creativity and professionalism at this establishment. I took my niece here for highlights and luckily a haircut was available when I inquired during the appointment. My niece has had terrible experiences with all of her haircuts. Mark was super nice! He explained to her the layering process, his recommendations and how much he was going to cut off. Mark made her feel at ease and she trusted his expertise. Corrine did a stellar job with the high/low highlights. The color was natural and blended well with my nieces features. My niece was very pleased leaving the salon.

So let me explain the process that went along with this hair salon. I was contacted by a very sweet stylist-in-training who informed me that she needed to practice coloring and my blonde ends were the perfect candidate. She told me coloring prices for her would range from $10-37 and that the owner would cut my hair for $10. I was intrigued but obviously skeptical. So I sent her a picture of the kind of color I wanted and asked if she could do that. She replied yes so I went ahead and scheduled an appointment with her. When I arrived and met her she was very sweet and respectful and her (Denice) and the lead color stylist named Corrin were coordinating to figure out what they wanted to do with my hair. Denice constantly checked in with Corrin so I felt like I was in good hands. However when my hair was finally rinsed and starting to dry I realized that the color was now where near the picture I sent. I was very disappointed to see that the stylists went with what they thought looked good instead of what I wanted. They also neglected to bleach my roots so they are significantly darker than the rest of my hair now. I thought that's ok the color is still nice, just not what I wanted. Then it was time to cut it. I asked the owner if we could do whatever looked nice as long as I could keep as much length as possible. He proceeded to tell me that my hair was two different lengths and the layers (that I specifically requested from my previous cut at a different salon) were too short and frayed. So I asked if we could trim everything up and even out the length and he proceeded to tell me "no". Because "you're not ready for an actual haircut yet". I was immediately confused and taken aback. I had just given my permission to even out the length and fix my layers, I just didn't want 6 inches cut off my length (which he very obviously wanted to do). I simply stated that I would like to keep as much of the length as I could WHILE still being able to even things out. And he told me "no". Im sorry, am I not paying for the service? So he proceeded to trim the very bottom of my hairline and my bangs upon request and blow dry it. I felt like that entire interaction was extremely rude and wish Corrin or Denice would have cut my hair instead. When I went up to pay I was informed that it would be $57 and I scratched my head. If the max for the coloring was $37 and the not-haircut from the owner was $10 then how did my total come out to $57?? At this point I just wanted to leave and never come back so I gave Denice $65 and told her to keep the change for herself. The only reason I am not giving this a single star review is because of Denice, who had the professionalism and respect of a professional while still being in training. Included are the pictures of the color I wanted and what I got. Like I said, the color doesn't look bad but it's not what I wanted. As an establishment that specializes in customer service, please work on listening to your customers and being able to give them the service they are paying for.
