About

Black and Brass in Carlsbad Village has operated a women-owned, full-service salon at 2727 Roosevelt Street since 2016, staffed by stylists who each carry a minimum of ten years in the industry and hold specializations spanning barbering, color chemistry, and event styling. The bridal and event styling program coordinates hair and makeup for wedding parties, a service that aligns with the ceremony and reception packages at Carlsbad Windmill by Wedgewood Weddings on the eastern edge of the Village. The men's barbering menu includes gray blending and hair system removal, reinstallation, and cut-in—a specialized service for non-surgical hair replacement units that requires adhesive removal, scalp preparation, and precision blending of the system perimeter into natural hair. Clients preparing for outdoor coastal events add a sunless base at Hush Heated Sunless Tan before their styling appointment, timing the DHA development window to avoid color transfer during the blow-dry and set. The salon's Japanese permanent straightening service uses a thioglycolate-based solution to break and reform hydrogen bonds in the hair cortex, producing a pin-straight result that holds through Carlsbad's coastal humidity for up to six months per treatment cycle.
