I had a wonderful experience with Behnaz. I have shorter hair that needed a trim. She listened to what I wanted, what had and hadn’t worked in the past and had some great advice. The cut is really cute and well done. And I have hope that it’ll hold its own well as it grows, that I won’t be needing a cut again right away. An overall great experience!

I highly recommend Salon Bravissimo and Master Stylist Behnaz Azarfam specifically. I wanted an updated pixie cut for my almost white (silver) hair and it was perfection. Her technique was flawless, as was the style and length we discussed. I went from a much longer pixie to a very chic and short option. I couldn't be happier!

Behnaz is amazing. I finally feel like I’ve found my stylist. My first visit, I had booked a cut and color, and she was incredibly honest about what my fine, frizzy, curly, low porosity hair actually needed. She suggested skipping the color to protect my hair health, gave me a great cut, and walked me through…

I was looking for a very accomplished stylist with precision cutting training and experience to cut my waist length hair to slightly above my shoulders. Behnaz produced a great haircut that looks good day after day. My hair is cut so perfectly that it takes very like effort to keep it looking wonderful. I found my stylist.

Having recently moved to Sacramento and having met her in a memorable drop-in visit a year earlier, I can’t believe that I found the best hairstylist in Sacramento! The precision cuts and color perfection that Behnaz delivers, combined with her kind and caring personality, I couldn’t ask for a better stylist to trust with my hair 🥰

My hairstylist who I had been seeing for 40 years retired. Finding a new hairstylist is like finding a new doctor. You need someone you can trust and who knows what you want even if you can’t express it. I found Behnaz and am so thankful I did. After a short discussion she was able to see things that could be…
