I took my wedding dress to sally to have it hemmed, 6 bustles installed and sleeves added to my dress. she did an AMAZING JOB, not just her work ethics but her personality and thoughtfulness is amazing as well. She is such a sweet women and has such a family friendly welcoming environment. When we took my dress for the first time I was nervous because I had my toddler with me and she doesn't always listen well so I thought I was going to be stressed out trying my dress on and chasing her, however Sally had lots of toys there and welcomed her to explore with the toys so that I was stress free and was able to focus on my dress alterations. Sally was also extremely quick in getting my dress back to me, within about a week-week and a half timing. She's priced amazing for the amount of work she did. She also steamed my dress as a gift to us and that was extremely sweet of her. Thank you Sally for all your amazing work and hospitality every single time we went in! You're going to be in my thoughts. I'll update this post when I have a photo of my dress from the wedding read more

Such an amazing and wonderful find! Sally does the best work and always does an exceptional job! Have gone in multiple times with things I wasn't sure were repairable, and she was able to fix them! Such a wonderful blessing to discover her shop! Will be a repeat customer as long as I live in Sacramento! read more

Great quality, fast and friendly service. Best price in town for those quick fixes or last minute event alterations.

It's all true. Sally is the real deal. An expert tailor; her shop is impressive yet personal; on-time completion; and a real value. No need to go elsewhere. As new people to Sac, we are glad we found her. Now my husband has pants that flatter his slim and fit figure! read more

Sally has done several items for me. She does a great job!! Seems there's nothing she can't do. I highly recommend her.

I was so shocked to turn into a parking lot to search for a local tailor... one happened to be in said parking lot. Sally was very professional and a worked with haste and dignity. I lost one of my buttons and she gladly replaced with it a like button. And she worked along side another client and made sure his suite was ready for his pickup despite requesting just short notice. My new spot! read more

Sally was amazing!! Excellent customer service, reasonable price, super friendly and trustworthy. I had 2 dresses that needed to be made smaller and were also a unique design so not a simple alteration. She had to do more work than she thought and didn't charge me extra. They fit perfectly and look amazing!! I will be back!! read more

Sally took my daughters wedding gown in and had alterations done within a week!! Excellent service and workmanship! read more

Sally did the most amazing alterations to a junior bridesmaid dress and maid of honor dress in August 2019!! I was so happy when Sally looked at the complicated layered junior bridesmaid dress and said "I know what to do." Because I sure didn't. This took a huge weight off my shoulders in getting ready for my daughter's wedding in two days. I highly recommend Sally's Alterations. read more

I like Sally and have been taking things to Sally for 14 years. Sally hems my family's jeans/pants and makes small repairs when I need them. I recently had some softball shorts repaired and a shirt modified for my daughter. Sally's husband is really nice too. Nice, efficient, no nonsense family business! Good job Sally! Please don't retire or I'll have to figure out how to sew. read more

This is a sweet Mom and Pop shop. Sally literally saved my behind when I took her my dress 2 days before my wedding. I ordered my wedding dress online. It did not zip up!!! I am very busty. I wanted to cry when I put it on because those size charts online are never accurate! Sally opened up the back of my DRESS and did criss cross alterations on the back so I could adjust the dress. OMG! When I picked it up it looked like I paid over 2000 for my dress. I received tons of compliments! She saved my life! I owe her. Thank you, Sally! read more

Sally did such a fantastic job on my bridesmaid dress!!!

Very nice people. Awesome fast GREAT service not to pricey also. My brother needed a suit alternated and so what for that DAY and they came through. They took 5 minutes at least to all ready know what to do and told us what time to come back. I of course don't recommend doing that because just imagine the stress but still was very nice of them to do day life savers truly read more

I've been coming to Sallys store for 15 years or so and she always remembers who I am and gives great customer service. I usually need every pair of pants I but hemmed and she is super fast and affordable. Sometimes she offers to have me wait and does it right then for me. read more

I had a last minute alteration that needed to be done for a dress that I wss going to wear for my daughter's wedding. Not only did she do it the same day, the alterations were perfect! I would recommend her to anyone! Very satisfied customer. read more

Alterations by Sally is one of the best finds around. I don't often have a need for alterations but when I do, it is always Sally's. From daughter's prom dresses to son's suit jackets to my pants or dresses we've never had a complaint. Service is quick when needed and always excellent. Would be very surprised if any one gave her a bad review. read more

I will never take my alterations anywhere else. Sally's made my wedding dress look perfect and she did it within two weeks of me bringing it to her and I couldn't be happier. Thank you so much! read more

I have been coming to Sally for years. As soon as you walk in you know you're at a place where the people take pride in their craft. It is a small family business and it feels like they have been doing this for generations. I think their prices are very fair for the quality of work that they do. The other day i needed my sons dress pants hem restitched and I was in and out in three minutes. A wonderful business, you wont be disappointed! read more

Sally is great! She always makes sure my items look great. We live in EG but drive over to FO for her!

I brought in a bridesmaids strapless dress that I wanted to add a sheer top piece to, this was a tricky alteration and I was nervous to attempt it but I brought it to Sally's and she did a great job! The dress also has a small rip int he bottom and she hemmed it and was able to get the tear out! She also suggested a few other ideas to make the dress more flattering! She did a great job, the dress turned out so much better than it looked before!! I will definitely be bringing my clothes here moving forward! read more

I have been coming to Sally for quite a few years now. Sally is just the sweetest, and very talented with alterations and repairs. She is quick and efficient and very reasonably priced. You will not be disappointed! I am now driving 30 plus minutes just to get to Sally for assistance, she is worth that drive for me. My wedding is upcoming next month and my dress needed some work so it sat better on me and gave a better silhouette. Of course Sally was who I had in mind to help me. She ROCKED my dress!! It is beautiful and she did it in only a couple of weeks. I am beyond happy with how my dress looks and feels, all thanks to Sally. My groom and I have been struggling with his vest for our day. When his vest arrived in the mail, it was just a little to small. We worked with the location we purchased from, and they couldn't help us with any suggestions or solutions. My mother tried to assist, and took my groom to a couple of places that she was sure would be able to fix this vest without a problem. Every place they went, they ran in to hesitations or just flat out, "No, we cannot do this". When I took my dress to Sally, I took the vest with me. I explained to her what we had been trying to do. In just 1 moment, she replied, go get me another vest. Just that simple. She just needed more fabric to work with. I immediately went to the store, got another vest, although they no longer had any in the same size, last one was 2 sizes smaller. She still was able to use that smaller vest for the additional fabric and now my groom looks GREAT in his altered vest. You can't even tell there was work done to it. We are just so happy with Sally. She is so pleasant and I just love that she is so willing to help you with your needs. Sally we just LOVE you, and know that NONE of this would have been possible without you and your incredible talents! Thank you so much!! read more

My daughter's letterman's jacket came in 4x bigger then what was ordered (L). She needed for pictures for band this had to be done in one day. We were so upset who was gonna have a custom jacket ready in one day-must be out of your mind right? A very understanding lady(Lori) told us to take it to Sally's she would take care of us. OMG THE JACKET FIT PERFECT. Sally had to take it in everywhere. Didn't loose any of the embroidery the arms perfect length the back with the border perfect. THANK YOU SALLY, STEVEN AND LORI. FOR MAKING IT RIGHT!!! The pictures came out great and we are very happy and pleased with the AWESOME job. I know you all worked tirelessly on her jacket to make it special for us. Thank you a million times over for all your hard work and dedication in your profession. read more

Sally was friendly and fast! Instead of making an alteration overcomplicated, she was able to make a small adjustment that worked perfectly! I will definitely go back. read more

Super fast, affordable, and awesome customer service. They were able to fix the zipper on my Louis Vuitton bag and let me pick in within a few hours. They were very accommodating. I will definitely be returning. I am a happy customer! read more

Sally has been doing my alterations for years and she's wonderful. Your clothes will fit perfectly to your body and she always double checks and suggests the right tailoring for your shape. There's nothing like that very sleek, tailored fit and I get it here!! She also repairs my clothes when I get a accidental rip or something. I see her every couple months with a few new things that need work and I'm always happy. read more

Sally is a one-of-a-kind lady! I'm always bringing her emergency fixes and she does it for me right then and there...quick hems, a bow put back on, etc...very sweet and helpful and done right! I'm going to be taking all my future alterations here. read more

I was in need of a curtain hem and just happened to call Sally's and this is how it went.. When I phoned I asked if they do the job. She said yes so fast I was hesitant.. I went by anyway to see the shop and she still said she could do the job.. I explained to them that this curtain matched seven others and would need this hem to exactly match the others she still said no problem.. Well guess what... She did it exactly the same so much so that I'm still in awe.. Sally's has gained a new customer. Thank you so very much for getting it right and obviously listening to the customers needs. I'll be back in the future. read more

Had to get a broken zipper on my wife's favorite jacket fixed. Called another place and they wanted $25 for labor. Sally fixed the zipper while we waited. $6 Awesome service and very professional. Take your stuff to sally. She rocks. read more

Beautiful work, but $75 to take in one back seam on a jacket and shorten the sleeves is a bit steep. Especially since it wasn't a rush job (1 week turnaround). read more

I brought in a simple task because I was pressed for time. The lady there said $10 and then when I provided the thread and ribbon it looked like she wrote $5. I left thinking that was great. When I arrived to pick up my items she said it was $50 "can't you see?" As a matter of fact I didn't have my glasses on. Meanwhile a man comes in with 5 pair of pants at $9 each and she has $54 dollars written on the bottom line. She doesn't apologize. I said that I've misunderstood but $50 was too much. I wouldn't have agreed to that. I offered $25 cash as a compromise and she said she'd "rather watch it rot on her shelves". She had done the work and i didn't have any choice but to pay to get my items. I will never go back. Her sewing is fine but she is rude and unclear when giving her quotes. . read more

My daughter's wedding dress was very complicated but Sally handled it, no problem!! After she was done, it fit beautifully : ) She is reasonably priced, does excellent work and is a wonderful person. read more

I've been going here for years, bringing some difficult projects sometimes and I am always impressed by the expertise of Sally. Always a job well done! read more

Sally is amazing! Took my fiancé's hat that was previously his grandpas then his dads. It had seen better days. I brought in replacement lining and trim and she made it look brand new! He's so happy. I had been here before and she was always so fast and did great work. I should've dropped a 5 star review much sooner. Thank you so much! read more

I have been a happy customer for years. Meticulous attention to detail....reasonable prices. Just outstanding customer service!

Unbelievably overpriced. I brought in a simple sundress, no liner, to be hemmed an inch at no rush, and was charged $20 at pick up. Not only was I not informed of the price in advance, but the writing on the tag was illegible. Nordstrom Rack and Four Season's tailoring in Roseville will do the same job for half the price. Will not be going here again. read more

I lived close enough to drive by Sally's shop almost daily for over 10 years and did not need her services. A few years ago I moved into the older part of Fair Oaks and didn't see her shop as much, but she was the first person I thought of when my daughter's prom dress came late and a size too big! I called on Wednesday night, praying she could help and it didn't even phase her. She encouraged me to come right in and was certain she could do it. Fast forward to 4pm on Friday and the dress was tailor made for my girl! She looked stunning! The alterations were personal (invisible zipper), and she customized the boning in the strapless portion of the dress. There was no gap between the chest and dress. This helped my daughter feel much more comfortable and modest! Sally even pressed the dress. I'm very pleased with Sally's customer service, her product and her ability. She took the fear out of alterations for me. I will definitely look to her for alteration services again! read more

Excellent service! Prom dress was tailored to fit precisely. Friendly and reasonably priced! Highly recommend.

They are amazing! Quick turnaround. More than fair prices. I had a bridesmaid dress that she had to take out two full sizes only a week before the wedding. It was PERFECT. Couldn't even tell it had been altered. I am telling you -- MAGICIANS. I drive across town to get everything taken care of here! read more
