I was a loyal client at Fifty Shades of Hair Salon for over five years. In that time, I developed…read morewhat I believed was a genuine friendship with the owner, Claudia. She always had her own unique way of doing things, and I trusted her judgment when it came to my hair. That trust is something I now deeply regret. This last visit, I made the decision to go blonde. Claudia was confident she could make it happen and told me to stay "as long as it takes" with no time limit. She applied bleach and foils to my entire head, but shortly after, she checked the foils and said some of my hair had come out. She immediately panicked, pulled the foils off, and rinsed my hair out. Then she said, "Oh, I could've left them in--I just forgot where I put the 10 and where I put the 20." That statement alone was incredibly alarming. To rewind a bit--Claudia had insisted I come in the day before for a keratin treatment that would supposedly help lighten my hair before bleaching. I paid $200 for that treatment, and it barely made a difference. Back to the day of the bleaching--after removing the foils early, she applied a caramel toner to my hair. Before even drying it, she sat in front of her camera and told me she was only charging me for her time, not the products, and that the total would be $650. I was completely shocked and upset but went ahead and paid it, hoping at least the end result would be worth it. When she dried my hair, it was a disaster--an uneven mess of brown, blonde, and green tones. I told her it looked awful and even cried in her chair, but she showed no concern or care. I left feeling devastated and humiliated. Afterward, I texted Claudia asking for at least a partial refund. She refused, claiming it wasn't her fault and even said she had a camera in her office that "recorded everything." She also charged me $70 for a conditioning treatment I never agreed to--promising to refund it but never following through. Over the years, I noticed Claudia was steadily losing clients, and now I understand why. Her work, attitude, and lack of accountability have driven people away. I truly thought we had a friendship, but clearly, I was mistaken. Please, save yourself the money, stress, and heartache. Stay far away from Claudia, her salon, and all the drama that comes with it.

I have been with Jenna since October 2022, and I love how talented and knowledgeable she is about…read morehair care and growth! The first time I booked with her, she provided a very thorough consult on my hair and explained what factors would lead to damage or hair loss. She gave me the exact haircut I asked for without any issues (which is so rare for me because I'm very picky lol). The second time I went to her for a haircut, I didn't even need to provide her with any inspo pics, I just told her I wanted which was more volume with layers, and she was able to do all that and more! The way that she styles my hair after a haircut is so pretty and natural and I will definitely be coming back to her for future balayages, haircuts, & blowouts!

Vibes are great at this salon, and it's in a convenient location. Jenna is a sweetheart. She put a…read morelot of work into getting the look I asked for! Only downside was that it took an extremely long time. I think if I had known more about how she was going to achieve the look, I would have opted to break it into more than one session or just changed the look altogether. But yeah that was the only thing, and full disclaimer she did tell me ahead of time it was going to take all day. I just probably won't do something that extensive again lol. Excellent cut, and the color was a nice change!

I had very damaged hair from perms and color so instead of getting another perm, I had her give me a short shag cut. It came out perfect and I love it! Thank you Mercedes. This salon has class. The receptionist greets you and offers you a choice of drink. It's super clean, bright and cheery and just the right temp (I'm always cold). Mercedes is a very experienced stylist from cuts to perms to color. If you're on the hunt for a new salon to go to, this is it! and be sure to ask for Mercedes.

This review is long overdue, but this is for Lena specifically. I met Lena about a year and half…read moreago, when I first moved to Fresno and I needed someone who was invested in helping me get the balayage I wanted. After that first interaction, I recommended my friend to her too. We both consistently see Lena throughout the year now. Even though I moved from Fresno a couple of months ago, I still make the trip back here because of Lena! She really does make the time to help her clients achieve the look that they want.

I have been going to Jackie for years now. I have received a variety of hair and skin services…read more When I have an appointment with Jackie it's something I look forward to all month long. I first started going to her based solely off her name , Color me Chula, and a good reference from a friend. At each appointment she always takes the time to educate me about my choices and help me navigate my hair or skin services. She individualizes each appointment to best suit my needs at that time. BUT I can say that each appointment always feels like much more than that. It feels much more like a healing session. Now those are not the services she offers but her energy and ability to make a person feel at ease and comfortable is an amazing gift . Typically when I schedule services such as these I always feel nervous about going to a salon environment, but I have never felt that way at Color Me Chula, Hands down she gives the best facials ever. When it comes to hair she has always made me feel like she cares about my hair and it's health. As a textured hair girl it's been hard to find stylists in the past that take the time to educate me about my hair and teach me how to take better care of it. My only wish is that she was more than one person that way her availability would always be open to me. Jackie is seriously the best and one would be lucky to receive any service from her. Stop thinking about it and book an appointment! It's worth it! You're worth it!

I refused to get off the car until my dad gave me the clearance that John wasn't there. Yes we all have problems but under NO circumstance should a customer have to be verbally attacked or mistreated just because the individual struggles with problems. I'm glad Connie the original owner is back. Please support this local business. And as for John, I pray he gets it together because it appears that he can be a nice individual. I wish nothing but a prosperous year for this neighborhood hair salon.
