David's been cutting my hair for well over 15 years, and I've never received anything other than a fabulous cut from him. My hair is unevenly curly: almost straight in places, wavy to very curly, in others. Really, it's mostly lots of cow-licks! I've had more bad haircuts in my life than I care to remember. But from the very first haircut, David always knew exactly how to cut my hair to make it look its best. He's also one of the nicest and most honest people you'll ever meet. I won't let anyone else touch my hair! --Lynne Fox, Sacramento, CA (Davis Wiki)
GREAT SALON! Not only was it the best haircut I've ever had, but he was able to give me great styling advice for different ways of wearing my new do. My boyfriend's mom has been using David for years and won't let anyone else touch her hair. Now I know why, he's absolutely great. I'll be headed in for my next cut soon, and talking to him about hiring him for our upcoming wedding! --Sara Roscoe, Davis, CA (Davis Wiki)
I highly recommend David Martin for his skill and talent working with my hair (for over 25 years) as well as my daughter's (for 20 years beginning at age 2). He has always gone the extra mile for us. I wish everyone could see the amazing style he did for my daugher's Senior Ball at DHS. The style involved putting tiny crystals on wires and meticulously weaving them through her hair. It was a work of art and at the same time a gesture that boosted her confidence that she would be beautiful for her special event. My daughter, although she now lives in Los Angeles, will still only have David cut her hair. Over the years as our hair changed, David's color and style suggestions have adapted to bring out the most flattering cut and shape. I greatly appreciate his honesty and professionalism in answering all questions. It still amazes me how David's cuts will last the 6 weeks between visits and maintain the style without looking ragged. Through all the years I've always been treated with the utmost courtesy during my visits and David is always on time. I appreciate that very much. The salon itself is a very relaxing place. I am always offered and served coffee or water and it makes me feel pampered. The walls are covered with beautiful art and the atmosphere is filled with friendly people who obviously enjoy working together. Since David opened Cobalt Salon, he has held several receptions featuring paintings and crafts from local artisans. I highly suggest putting your hair and style concerns in the hands of David Margin and Cobalt Salon. --Marilyn Silva, Davis, CA (Davis Wiki)
I feel beautiful everytime Tenaya does my hair! Everything surrounding her and everything she touches becomes more beautiful. It's interesting how feeling beautiful on the outside can make you feel beautiful on the inside. The world needs more Tenayas. --T. Bowen, Davis, CA (Davis Wiki)
The owner of Cobalt Salon, David Martin, has been my hair stylist for several years now. He is the best hair stylist I have ever had! I originally went to him because I needed a change and have been very happy ever since. He is great with color and always has great suggestions for the changing seasons. I have very straight and thin hair, and therefore I need a very precise haircut. His are always perfect. I have had both long and short hairstyles with him and he is great at both. He is also a very nice guy and I always enjoy chatting with him during my appointments. --M. H., Davis, CA (Yelp)
I've gone to Cobalt for the better part of this year and have *never* had a bad experience. Despite moving to Sacramento, I will probably continue to visit purely because I love the space, the people, and everyone is absolutely amazing. --Reese Layton, Davis, CA (Davis Patch)
David truly understands color - he found just the right combination of blonde highlights for me. Great cut too! The salon is clean and very friendly. --Carolyn Schrader, Davis, CA (Cobalt Salon & Gallery facebook page)
I had the most wonderful haircut, color and highlights from Ms. Michelle White. Not only is she engaging, friendly, enthusiastic and obviously has a passion for her craft, she is extremely talented. I completely trusted her with choosing the best color for me and my results were truly magical. I learned more about hair and the importance of using professional products and how to keep my hair healthy in one session from Michelle than I ever did in my lifetime. Cobalt Salon truly has a gem in this salon and I will be coming back to see Michelle and I will be sending my friends and family to come see her. Loved the experience!! --Blanca Rosas, Davis, CA (Davis Wiki)
I get my hair done by Michelle White and I always love my hair and have never in my life have had so many compliments on my hair before. On June 28 2014 as I was walking to my car after having my hair done someone complimented me on my hair so I gave her one of Michelle's cards. I will never let anyone touch my hair except for Michelle. Michelle ROCKS!-Lenora C. West Sacramento, CA (Yelp)
