Cow Hollow Cutters...and Colors Is Closed--But Robb and Hannah Are Still Working!

The lease on the storefront at 2803 Greenwich Street expired on November 1, 2006, and was not renewed by the current property owner, so Cow Hollow Cutters...and Cutters closed after 19 years at that location.

Robb Schaller is operating an independent concession as "Robb Schaller, Hairstylist" at The Union Gent, 1957B Union Street, between Laguna and Buchanan Streets, across from Perry's. The Union Gent faces into a little alley called Charleton Court, just a few steps off Union. The shop was the very first men's hairstyling establishment on Union Street, which offered an alternative to barber shop haircuts to the professional men of the neighborhood who were wearing fuller hairstyles at the time.

In keeping with the times, The Union Gent offers up-to-date haircutting and haircolor services to men and women, and Robb feels that it is a perfect fit for him, considering his experience and skills. Please follow the link in the sidebar to Robb's new blog, www.robbschallerhairstylist.blogspot.com. And be sure to follow Robb to his new location. His business telephone #415.563.6140 has not changed.

Please contact Hannah Martin at 415.440.6033.

Cow Hollow Cutters and Colors: "The Faces Behind The Hairstyles"

Cow Hollow Cutters and Colors: "The Faces Behind The Hairstyles"

Robb's San Francisco Open Studio, October 2005

Robb hosted his San Francisco Open Studio weekend at Cow Hollow Cutters...and Colors in October of 2005. About 150 people showed up to enjoy the paintings, pizza and wine. Robb made several sales of his watercolors and was offered a commission from an interior decorator, Warren Sheets (www.warrensheetsdesign.com), to do a large (3' X 3')
watercolor, which now hangs in the lobby of The Pacific Regent, a twenty-two story condominium complex in La Jolla, California. Robb is currently working on a second commission for Warren, which is a set of four large watercolors to be placed in the new Del Mar Grand Golf Resort in Southern California. Here's Robb at his Open Studio, photo by Gavin Clark.

Cow Hollow Cutters...and Colors is a Place d'Arte

Cow Hollow Cutters...and Colors is a great place to drop in for a haircut, or to get your grey hair colored or to get fantastic high- and low-light effects, but we are also a gallery of brilliant watercolors that Robb has created under the name "Paliuli", to keep him in touch with his Hawai'ian aumakua. Drop by and enjoy a cup of tea and check out the colorful walls of the salon/gallery. Perhaps you'll see something that would brighten one of your rooms!

This Is Cory, Blonde Bombshell!

Cory is one of Robb's favorite clients, because she is always looking for a new, edgy look. We do a lot of color experimentation with her hair, recently using blonde-on-blonde effects with three tones and a geometrical, highly textured scissor-clipper cut, high and tight on the sides and ruffed up on top. You da BOMB, Cory!

Hannah's Creation

Hannah enjoys doing creative hair colors, and this photo shows some leopard spots she did on one of her clients. Are you ready for something wild? Or would you prefer something more subtle? Hannah can do it. Give her a call at 415.440.6033.

Grey skies got you down? Both Robb (415.563.6140) and Hannah (415.440.6033) have their paint brushes and color boxes ready to weave some springtime highlights through that neglected winter hair. We have lots of ideas for new variations and we're in the mood for SPRING, sunny days, a lift of spirits and great new looks! See you soon!
