The Madrid Story
At Madrid's Bleu Champu Salon in San Francisco, we are dedicated to offering a diverse array of services tailored to meet the unique needs of each client. With over 45 years of excellence in the industry, our salon has become an icon in the Bay Area hair community.
Whether you are seeking a chic haircut, vibrant color, expert weaving, a fresh set of locs, or a flawless makeup application, our family team of skilled stylists is here to bring your vision to life — across every texture, with the patience and care that only experience can teach.
What We Do
Sixteen disciplines under one roof — built around the textures and routines that walk through our door on Fillmore Street every week.
The foundation of every stylish look. Stylists who shape your hair quickly, with great skill, and an experienced touch.
From subtle highlights to bold transformations — color services designed to express your personality without compromising hair health.
Volume, length, and dimension with a seamless installation — without the commitment of permanent change.
From starter locs and two-strand twists to braided and crochet styles built for low-maintenance, long-lasting wear.
Chemical hair straightening, texturizing and perming — performed with the patience and product knowledge that only comes from decades of practice.
Microblading, threading, brow and facial waxing, plus full makeup application — a complete refresh in a single visit.
The Product Line
Madrid's haircare line was built the way a chef builds a menu — one product at a time, from problems clients bring through the door. The Coconut Yogurt, the Liquid Texture, the Ultimate Loc-Knot Twist Cream, and the Opulence Relaxer System are all formulated, tested, and sold straight from the salon.
From the Chair
"I traveled from Missouri for the hair appointment with Madrid and was not disappointed. The experience was absolutely the best I have had in several years. My hair was dry, stiff, hard, and uneven. By the time Madrid finished I had a new, soft, and silky smooth hair style. Thank you, Madrid for the new look. I love it!"
"Madrid truly understands hair. He is professional and approachable. His attention to detail is one that only comes from experience. I am so happy with the quality of his work (and at a good price)! My hair found a home. Thanks Madrid, I will be back!"
"Third time here and excellent service as usual. The atmosphere at this salon is warm and welcoming. Madrid is a consummate professional with hair. I'll always come back!"
"This was my first time at this salon and was greeted by Madrid. He was so kind and easy to talk to. I came in for a basic trim and Madrid was able to shape my hair quickly and with great skill. My hair feels and looks much better. Will definitely be coming back."
"I had such an incredible experience with Madrid. I'm very particular about my blowouts and often struggle to find someone who can smooth and straighten my hair all the way to the roots — he nailed it effortlessly. He really listened to what I wanted and saved my hair after a really bad haircut."
"What a wonderful salon both in Oakland & San Francisco. The hair stylist knows what he's doing. My hair has always turned out awesome! Definitely recommend." — Breanne W.
