California Hair & Nail

I generally don’t make reviews… but after having a very good experience, I didn’t want others to see the only one bad review. I had a particular product I wanted to use for a perm, and after searching all over Fresno for a salon that carried this product I found this salon. I’m glad I didn’t heed the one bad review. I was pleasantly surprised at the personable service and prompt service. Daphne was my stylist and she was very attentive and knowledgeable. She listened to what I wanted and took great care to see I was satisfied. Also, what she quoted me was the final price as well. Thank you… I’m very pleased!

Never again!
Let me start by saying that I have been to several ‘walk in’ salons and nail places in town, so I have many experiences to judge this place against.
My walk-​in experience was terrible. First, the shop is very cramped at the entrance and the whole place looks a little dingy. Still, I walked in only wanting a shampoo and blowout, nothing fancy or complicated, so I thought I’d give them a shot. The stylist gave me a price increase on what was posted AFTER she started shampooing my hair! How could I say no when I was already getting the wash?! She said it was because my hair was so thick and I would need some of it flat ironed, that a blowout alone would look too poofy. Next thing I know, she’s taking a 15 minute call on her cellphone and she was flat ironing my whole damned head! I got upset and told her I WANTED a fair amount of body, not flatness, so then she tried ‘fixing it’ with a curling iron. When I left, I paid the posted amount for the service (not her inflated price) and didn’t leave a tip.
I will never go back to that shop again.
