Whipped Up by Trini: Hair Salon in Oakland CA

I can’t say enough good things about Whipped By Trini! From the very beginning of my loc journey, she has been nothing short of amazing. I came to her at the start, and my locs have been flourishing ever since. She’s not just a loctician—she’s an artist, a vibe, and truly a master at her craft. First off, her affordability is a breath of fresh air. She offers top-tier work at prices that are fair and accessible, which is something you don’t always find when it comes to quality hair care. And she’s incredibly timely—I never have to worry about waiting around or being rushed. She respects your time and makes sure every appointment runs smoothly. What really sets Trini apart, though, is her attention to detail and the love she puts into her work. I genuinely wouldn’t trust anyone else with my crown. She treats my hair with care, intention, and skill. You can tell she’s passionate about what she does and truly invested in the health and beauty of her clients’ hair. Another thing I deeply appreciate is how clear and intentional her communication is. From appointment reminders to discussing what your hair needs, she makes sure everything is transparent. She also takes the time to really get to know her clients—not just their hair, but them. Our conversations during my appointments are always thoughtful, inspiring, and full of good energy. She’s got this natural creative spark that makes you feel excited to sit in her chair and even more confident when you leave it. Getting my hair done by Trini is more than just a hair appointment—it’s an experience. And one I always look forward to. If you’re looking for someone who truly respects the journey your hair is on and pours love and talent into every twist and retwist, look no further. Whipped By Trini is the one.

Trinity is a breath of fresh (h) air when it comes to my family’s hair needs. She does an amazing job with our retwists, hair care, haircuts and her styles keep us with compliments from others daily. She also is pleasant and her personality matches her work!

Trinity did an amazing job. I got wash, retwist, style, and haircut. She was very professional and accommodating. I will definitely book with her again and recommend her to others.

Great experience! Will be back!

Trinity is talented - she can do twists, locs and styles for my son. Also she is professional and kind. As a mom, I would recommend because she does a great job for my family.

I had the task of finding a loc stylist 3,000 miles away; my teenage son had just gotten starter locs here in MA but was spending his summer in CA with his dad. I found Trinity on Instagram and sent my inquiry via DM. She was very responsive, and answered all of my questions. The online booking system was easy to use, and my son was extremely satisfied with the outcome of his hair. His review: “ Overall great experience, if I’m ever out here in need of a retwist, she’s def the person I wanna go to.” Thank you for your work!
