I had a not so great cut and Franc saved the day. I called, got in the same day and Franc used his precision cutting skills to make my hair look sexy again. The salon is nice and everyone is friendly, the music is energetic but not obnoxious. Also, Franc does an amazing aromatherapy treatment that is the icing on the cake. read more

I recently got married in Punta de Mita and had no idea where to start for finding a hairstylist and make up artist. I stumbled on Franc and Jesus on yelp and feel so blessed to have them provide their services on my wedding day. Jesus is absolutely best in class in what he does. He does a great job of personalizing everyone's make up to their outfit and comfort level. Highly recommend! Franc is a joy to work with and does incredible work. His hairstyles lasted all evening and then some! Both of their work is super refine and they're truly the best you can find in the PV area. You are missing out if you don't book them for your wedding or any special event. Thank you Franc and Jesus! You two are the absolute best! read more

Franc and Jesus made me and my bridal party look phenomenal. Franc will give you whatever style you want, but he will give you suggestions too. And Jesus is a miracle worker. I felt beautiful, and despite the heat of our wedding day (June in Puerto Vallarta--what was I thinking?!), my makeup stayed put. They were also super flexible when my MIL requested last minute hair. They came to us, worked their magic and stayed until we were as happy as we could be. I found them when I googled wedding hair and makeup in Puerto Vallarta, and booked a hair trial a few months in advance. I knew I was going to use them and I did not regret it. Planning your wedding from another country can be scary, but rest assured these guys will take care of you! read more

Franc and Jesus did an AMAZING job with hair and makeup for myself, my maids and my mom for my wedding. I can't say enough how happy I was with my bridal look and I know my bridesmaids and mom were also thrilled with theirs. Franc and Jesus were receptive to our photos and ideas, took that, and perfectly adapted the styles to each person. In addition, they arrived right on time and setup/broke down quickly. They were very professional and I would highly recommend them for any wedding or special event! read more

Franc Gole - Hair Stylists Near Me - Puerto Vallarta, JAL

I found FranGole online and reviewed their work and I knew I wanted the to help me with my big day. I had to trust that he would do a good job not being in the area in time to do a trial run and I was not disappointed. He did a better job than I had pictured for myself. Having a destination wedding is hard enough not being there to manage everything. I'm glad my hair and make up was not one of the things I needed to worry about hat day. More of my party needed hair and make up done then originally planned and they made sure to get to everyone and still have me ready in time. Could not thank you enough for being so responsive to my emails and super friendly in my big day! HIGHLY recommend them! read more

I was visiting Puerto Vallarta and wanted a haircut. I found Franc on Yelp and booked a same-day appointment. A couple of hours later, Franc accommodated my request for an appointment for my mother-in-law too. Franc worked carefully and efficiently, and was conversational throughout. His price for a haircut is higher than other stylists in the area, but his skills and experience are worth it! My mother-in-law and I are both happy with our haircuts. Thanks, Franc! read more

Franc and Jesus Recently did our hair and make up for my wedding in PV. They were able to accommodate eight women with various services with no problems at all. They showed up with their glam squad and all of their stuff and made the process so easy and super fun. I was not sure of the style that I wanted And was worried about the heat and humidity, but they have the perfect products for this weather and were able to discuss ideas and explain them very well prior to settling on a final look. We could have been models after they were done. Just amazing! I would highly recommend to anyone needing such services. read more

awesome hair cut and highlights. full attention to you. highly recommend Nancy O read more

I originally found Franc because I had tried three different hairdressers previously in the Marina area that completely ruined my hair cut/color. I was horrified and thought that there was no way that anyone could fix the problem, so I read Franc's reviews on Yelp and immediately called him. Not only did he get me in that same day, but he meticulously cut and colored my hair until it was perfect. read more

Franc is an AMAZING stylist... just amazing. I split my time between San Francisco and New York, and have had highlights & color done over the years in both cities and also in LA, often spending hundreds of dollars and waiting weeks for appointments. Franc beats them ALL, hands down. He did the best highlight of my life, I got an appointment within 2 days, and he did it all at a truly unbeatable price. If you are on vacation in Puerto Vallarta or coming here for a wedding, you NEED Franc in your life. You might think "this is a mall salon in Mexico.... how great could it be?" -- the answer is AMAZING. I will probably fly back to PV for a weekend just to get my highlights touched up by him 2x a year - even with a flight + hotel, it's still cheaper than some of the top salons in LA/SF/NY and Franc's work is 10x better than anything I've experienced there. read more

Frank did an amazing job. I put my hair in his hands and he worked magic. He is gifted and has talent at what he does. But most importantly he puts his heart into his work-- I really felt that. He cares.... My visit with him is a big highlight of my trip- not only for the work he does but for the opportunity to interact with such an amazing person. I might be biased- but I don't think so. So glad I made this choice. Thank you Franc! read more

Franc did an amazing job. I had previous highlights that turned brassy over time. Franc took his time, carefully treated and colored my hair. I wasn't sure what I wanted, so I asked Franc for a recommendation. I absolutely love what he chose. My base natural color with the most beautiful highlights I've ever gotten. If you're in PV, treat yourself to the best color of your life. I will be back. Thanks Franc!!! read more

My husband and I were recently married in Puerto Vallarta Mexico (destination wedding for us) and I hired Franc and Jesus for onsite day of hair and makeup for myself, my bridesmaids, and our mothers. I was very nervous about hiring someone who I had not met in person, nor done a trial run with to be responsible for my wedding day look but after seeing photos online and reading other reviews, I decided to go for it. I AM SO GLAD I DID! Jesus and Franc did the absolutely fantastic work and everyone looked better than we could have ever hoped for! They were professional, on time,very flexible, and super easy to work it. I felt like a complete princess and could not stop smiling! Thank you Franc and Jesus for making my dream look a reality! read more

There truly aren't enough wonderful things to say about Franc and Jose. They came on site for my wedding in Nuevo Vallarta and did hair and makeup for my bridesmaids. They were funny and made everyone look absolutely beautiful in the process. I was a little unsure about having anyone other than my own hairdresser in Los Angeles do my hair, but I was allowed to do a hair and make-up trial run and felt so comfortable. Franc made me and my squad look amazing! Jose was no different. He is the master of makeup and had fantastic looks for everyone who chose to get their make up done. I honestly can't thank them enough for coming to the venue, doing hair and makeup and having a good time with us in the process. They are fantastic and I would recommend checking them out if you are EVER in the need for a stylist or makeup artist. They are true pros! read more

I have tried many hairdressers since coming to Puerto Vallarta over 30 years ago and was disappointed in their work until I met Franc Gole about 10 years ago. Now that I live here full time I will never go to anyone else . Franc's hair cuts make it easy for me to style my own hair as it all goes in place as the cut intended. His color expertise is the best and my color and highlights always look great. I have referred several friends to Franc and they are as happy with his work as I am. Don't look any further in P.V. Franc is the best! read more

I have gone to Franc now twice and he's a genius when it comes to hair. He patiently took his time to give me a totally different hairstyle that's looks so much better than any cut I've ever had. I described the color I wanted and it was perfect. Looking forward to returning to PV and getting a fabulous cut and color again! read more

Franc Gole - Hair Stylists Near Me - Puerto Vallarta, JAL

Franc is very attentive and really listens to what you want. I love my new pixie cut!

Franc Gole is the best hair stylist in Puerto Vallarta....period! I moved to Vallarta last year from Los Angeles, had no idea who could possibly replace the woman who had cut/colored my hair for years. I found Franc on Yelp and wow, I got lucky! He's an artist, my high/lowlights have never looked better. His haircuts are superb and so precise. Yesterday, I had the pleasure of spending the afternoon in his chair. In addition to being a master of his craft, he's a lovely conversationalist and old soul. Do yourself and your hair a favor and call Franc! read more

Okay, I don't even know where to begin. My best friend and I stumbled across Franc's salon while searching for a hair stylist for a wedding. We came in on a Thursday afternoon to make an appointment. Franc asked if we needed makeup as well which was amazing because we were gonna go to the MAC counter at the mall for makeup. The wedding was the next day (Friday). Franc set up our appointment, told us the price and gave us our appointment cards. We happily took them home and were looking forward to 11am the next day. We show up for our appointment on Friday at 11am and to Franc's surprise. Turns out we had told him Saturday instead of Friday. Noticing how disappointed in ourselves Franc sprung into action, called up Jesus the makeup artist (who had us booked for Saturday) to come in and another hairstylist to get hair done because he had other clients. He was soooo accommodating, amazing service and custom skills and he was so easy to talk to. Jesus is probably the BEST makeup artist I have EVER had. He got straight to work and the outcome was just unbelievable!! My friend and I still cannot believe how lucky we are. But if you're ever in need of a full service salon in Puerto Vallarta, please check out Franc Gole and Jesus Avelar for hair and makeup needs. Trust me you would not be disappointed. They go above and beyond for the client. Best experience ever hands down! read more

Franc and Jesus did the bride and bridal parties hair and makeup this past weekend for the one of my best friends hair and makeup in Mexico and it was by far the most amazing hair and makeup I have ever seen done for a wedding. The bride and the whole bridal party looked amazing!! I would highly recommend. They truly are artists of hair and makeup!!!! Flawless!!! read more

Wow. Franc and Jesus know what they are doing. I was so in love with my trial bridal make up and hair, and then the day of my wedding was "perfecto" to quote Jesus. I was impressed with their professionalism, Franc had an amazing suggestion to add orchids in my hair as the bride and I'm just blown away the difference that one suggestion made. I didn't have any stresses on my wedding day, and part of that was due to the team of Franc and Jesus!!!!! Love y'all, wedding stress is enough for a bride but seriously having you guys around was that one less thing I needed to think about. Effortless work. Would recommend in a heartbeat!!! read more

Franc is a treasure of Puerto Vallarta. Not only did he give me beautiful high/low lights and a fantastic hair cut, he was a delight to visit with. Just what I was looking for!! read more

I was in Puerto Vallarta last week for my best friends destination wedding and was blessed to have Franc and Jesus work their magic on my hair and makeup. I am very picky when it comes to both so I was a bit nervous, but those nerves vanished shortly after meeting them. Both my hair and makeup turned out beautiful. Even in the crazy humidity we all looked great at the end of the night. Franc and Jesus are absolutely amazing!!!!! Their prices were perfect as well. Thank you for making me feel gorgeous on a very important day! read more

In July I had my hair and makeup done by Jesus and Franc. The wedding was at a private house in Puerta Vallarta and they came on site. They were both very professional and had everything set up so someone could be getting their hair done while the other person was getting doing makeup. I loved the look that they created and I was so happy that both my hair and makeup stayed put despite the humid weather! I must also say that the hair and makeup they did for the bride was beautiful and she looked absolutely stunning. They did a fantastic job and I would highly recommend their services. read more

Franc is an amazing hair stylist. I have been getting my hair colored (highlights and lowlights) and cut for more than 8 years and have never been disappointed. I always look forward to my hair days as he is also a great conversationalist. I would recommend him to anyone looking to get their hair done in Puerto Vallarta. My husband also has his hair cut by Franc and he is also very pleased. read more

I was really nervous about cutting my hair short. The first time in 45 years! Franc just walked me through it, spent a whole hour on my hair and made me feel like it was all a completely natural process and going to be great. He was personable, down to earth and it was clear that I was in the hands of a pro! Thank you. thank you! read more

A very belated review for Franc and Jesus! My wedding was at the St. Regis in Punta Mita in October 2016. I had originally intended to have my hair and makeup done by the hotel spa, but the trial run turned out terrible. So, Franc and Jesus to the rescue! My hair and makeup came out perfectly! Both are so talented. I can't recommend them highly enough. read more

Franc Gole and Jesus Avelar did wonders on my wedding hair and makeup. I have thick and heavy hair to say the least, and not only did Franc create a fabulous vintage inspired up-do, but it stayed all night! My make up came out so well in the photographs, up until the very last picture! These two are extremely professional, prompt, and exude great energy. With an anxious bride, large family, bridal party, etc. these two handled the morning/afternoon with ease. Thank you two so much! read more

Hello Brides, if you are looking for fabulous wedding day hair and makeup, look no further!! Franc and Jesus know their stuff. Of course, I was nervous to have a someone that I have never met do my hair and makeup on my special day. I rest assure you that you are in great hands. My updo was perfect. Franc alleviated my fears of having a bad hair day with humidity and wind at my beach wedding. He even has a special bobby pin technique that prevents the bobby pins from falling out. I love that because I had an issue with the bobby pins during my trial updo in Dallas. Jesus created my makeup which was flawless with all of the right high-end products and finishing touches to ensure my makeup stayed intact during the heat and humidity. They are conveniently located in the Plaza Caracol Mall, just a quick cab ride from my hotel at Secrets. Additionally, the online booking and email communications were seamless and greatly appreciated for the busy bride. read more

If you're looking for a wonderful and talented stylist, go to Franc. I haven't been able to find a good stylist in Chicago and since I was going to be vacationing in PV, I decided to do a little research on their local salons. There were a number of fabulous reviews on Franc so I decided to book a cut with him and I'm so happy I did. I have long and wavy hair and if anyone knows PV, it gets very hot and humid especially during the spring/summer season. He gave me such a good cut that it looked great even in the extreme humidity. I'm back in Chicago now and it couldn't look better. I'm just sad that Franc doesn't live in the states. I guess I'll have an excuse to visit PV more often. ha ha. His salon is easy to get to. It's located in Plaza Caracol Loc. 6-AA (in front of cashier #16 of Soriana grocery store). If you're ever visiting and/or living in PV, give Franc a try. He's very personable and professional. You will not be disappointed. read more
