Jeanette B.

Such a beautiful salon and wonderful staff! My new go to salon! LXI is great! So close to my home here in Pleasanton.

Erl B.

Kim has been my stylist for several years and she ALWAYS delivers a personalized creation that is perfect for my lifestyle & features. The time had come for a drastic change-up. I messaged Kim with my desires & expectations and gave her free rein to design a style based on those guidelines. She delivered perfectly. I love it...it is ideal. Kim is not only a creative artist; so conscientious, such a perfectionist, she a personable delight. The time had come for a change.

I come into this beautiful establishment and have my hair done by the sweet and friendly Alexandria, she's been doing my hair now for over a year and delivers every time. Her color and cuts always makes me feel so brand new and fresh. I always look forward to my next appointment!

Emily H.

I've been going to Alexandra for years!! She's so talented and amazingly gifted. I've always given her crazy and drastic hair styles from color to cut, and she's always steered me the right way or killed it with amazing technique. Go to her, you won't be disappointed!

Highlights by Claudia. I asked her to make them really thin strands

Claudia is an absolute creator! After months of neglect my hair was starting to look like I dip dyed it in some red Koolaid. I came in with such a short window to get it back to a presentable state. I was being super indecisive about what I wanted but Claudia was super patient and gave me helpful suggestions upon me describing my daily routines, how much time I spend getting ready in the morning and how much I was willing to do to maintain it. After all that she still patiently highlighted my hair using what felt like 200 foils and it came out gorgeously! (I'll add a recent picture in the end) But as for the salon itself, it's such a perfect little getaway! I love that it feels like luxury in charming downtown Pleasanton. I'm from Orange County and I'm so glad to be able to find excellent quality and not have to go to a big city to find it. Absolutely love it and will definitely be back!

Foilyage and cut by Claudia G!
Rakia D.

This is a wonderful salon located in the heart of downtown Pleasanton! The ambiance inside is elegant and all of the stylists are kind and friendly. This past visit, I received a foilyage and cut with Claudia to lighten up my look and accentuate my curls. My hair looks SO good! Claudia listened to what I wanted and then blew me away with the end product over-exceeding my expectations. She even helped me pick hair products that would fit my newly embraced curls. I highly recommend visiting this salon and seeing Claudia!

Sarah S.

I have been going to Raschell for 10+ years, she is amazing. I just give her an idea of what I want and she runs with it and it comes out beautiful every time! They use top quality products at this salon. You will love your hair, I have no doubt.

Before hair

I tried out 2 other stylists before coming to Victoria's. Both who just didn't have a passion for hair and really had no idea about color and really effed up my once beautiful hair. I left my prior hairstylist ONLY bc the drive to/from Los Gatos became too much with two small kids. I stumbled across Rachel Manifesto's Instagram and stalked her until hair salons could re-open. I truly believe that if you own a business and treat people right, your business will flourish. From the get-go Rachel was honest. She let me know pricing, time I should expect to be at the salon (great for all you parents with littles), we discussed potential colors and what hairstyles/colors looked best up and down and what hairstyles/colors looked better styled. We even discussed my post-partum hair loss and which way I'm parting it for now vs. how I normally part it. I needed a shorter hair cut that was able to be lived in, low maintenance (ain't nobody with littles got time to be at the salon for color touch ups every 6-8weeks), and looked good in a pony tail 99.9% of the time. I also needed the ugly a** chunky blonde highlights the prior stylist gave me, toned wayyyyyyyy down and the block/hard lines where those ugly things ended and my natural color began. Let me tell y'all, I spent 5 hours on a Saturday enjoying conversation, magazine reading, more conversation, laughing, and filled completely with excitement and anticipation for the final reveal of the hair I not only needed but wanted. It's so hard to find someone who wants to get to know you as a person so they can make your hair what you want and not make it the way they want. I'm SO thrilled I gave Rachel M. A chance. 3rds times a charm :) so go check out her insta @hairbyrachelmanifesto and see how good she is at her craft, then go run and make an appointment with her. But don't do it all at once, bc I need her too

Fresh cut and gloss to bring me back to my brunette base. Colored, cut, and styled by Rachel!
Lauren S.

I love Victoria's Salon! Rachel M. is the absolute BEST! From blonde, brown, to everything in between she always leaves me walking out of the salon feeling my BEST! I have been going to her for many years and every time I come she takes time to ask what I want and discusses with me her steps for that service. Her coloring, cutting, and styling is always perfect! When I leave the salon, I always get complimented on my hair and everyone I refer says they LOVE her as well! Not only is she the sweetest, but she is so very talented I know that I will always walk away more than pleased. She is always on time, never keeps me waiting and is great at communicating when there are changes in the schedule! Be sure to head over to Victoria's Salon when you're in downtown Pleasanton, it really is the BEST!

Up until very recently, I had never even heard of this place. Very rarely do I visit Pleasanton as…read moreI live in the San Ramon/Danville area. However, one morning, I called the place I typically go to in Castro Valley to see my regular nail tech. Then, they told me, she moved. I almost had a heart attack. Lol. Then, they told me that she now owns her own establishment in Pleasanton. So yes, I followed Snow all the way to Pleasanton. It's very rare that I follow anyone ANYWHERE. But this was an exception, and I knew this new place was going to be my home because Snow was there. Needless to say, I don't necessarily care about the establishment. Because it's the people who make the establishment feel like home. So cactus flower nail boutique is my new home because Snow is there. She is such an excellent technician. She pays attention to detail and tries to recreate anything that you want to see brought to life on your nails. She's also an excellent esthetician. My nails and eyebrows are always on point. She is an excellent hostess as well. She offers beverages during your session and serves everything from coffee to bottled water to juices and wine. As someone that values excellent quality. I suggest that you stop in and schedule your next appointment with Snow. She books pretty fast so I recommend making your appointments ASAP. Something else I want to mention... These ladies work extremely hard to make sure that your experience is phenomenal. They listen to us rant and rave about what's going on in our lives, they try to recreate some design on your nails that you want, spoil us with tasty beverages and genuinely care about making you feel pretty. DONT BE CHEAP! BE GENEROUS. TIP THESE WOMEN ACCORDINGLY! This is a WOMAN OWNED, MINORITY OWNED BUSINESS! GET OUT THERE AND SUPPORT HER!! When we support one woman, we support ALL WOMEN. I also recommend coming early! Its so peaceful and quiet.

Everyone was incredibly sweet and welcoming, which made me feel comfortable right away. Vivian did my nails and she was amazing. She really took her time and was very detail-oriented, making sure everything looked perfect without making me feel rushed at all. She was also super personable, which made the whole appointment really enjoyable. It's rare to find a place that will take a last-minute walk-in and still provide such thoughtful, quality service. I left very happy with my nails and the overall experience. I'm really glad I stopped in and will definitely be back!

Reasonable price at $35 for their Traditional Pedicure, for gel it is an additional $15. I guess I am going with regular. Kim was my girl. Love the foot and leg massage. Went with Hot Pink for our uncanny summer heat. It won't last long but I'll do my best to maintain it. They were pretty full when we were already seated, not much conversation going on. English is very limited. However i do notice if you aren't a regular or Asian, you won't be spoken too. They sometimes prefer catering to others, that's just the real truth. It doesn't bother me. You'll know if they are talking about you or not. lol It was fun for both bae and I to actually sit by side to get our pedicure and cuticles cleaned.

We laugh and they engage in conversation with me every time. If I want to be quiet they respect my wishes too. I recommend Top Care Nails every time. They also have mani/pedi specials too.

The owner/main…read morelady is incredibly rude, unprofessional, and seems completely incapable of handling customer concerns without becoming argumentative. They messed up my appointment time not once, but twice. Instead of taking responsibility or making any effort to accommodate me, the owner immediately became defensive and argumentative. The second time was especially frustrating because I had an event to attend. Rather than acknowledging the possibility of a scheduling mistake, she repeatedly insisted that I had given a different time, even after I explained that the time she claimed made no sense because I wasn't available then. She continued arguing, refused to listen, and eventually walked away from me in an extremely disrespectful manner. To make matters worse, my first visit was a disappointment because the owner did a poor job on my nails. The only reason I gave this salon another chance was because Victoria did an excellent job during my second visit. Unfortunately, one talented employee cannot make up for terrible management and customer service. Their appointment process is outdated since there is no online booking system where clients can select their preferred technician. Everything has to go through the owner, and based on my experience, communication is a major issue. Even when mistakes are clearly made, there is no accountability--just excuses and arguments. Customer service starts at the top, and this salon's biggest problem is its owner. I will not be returning and would not recommend this business to anyone who expects professionalism, respect, or basic accountability.

She's personable and skilled, and always checks on my comfort level multiple times during a session. Her setup is extremely clean and hygienic which I also appreciate. Paying is a breeze - if you don't have cash she will take Venmo (my preference) and possibly other forms of e-payment. I've seen Linda's mani and pedi work on others, and it's lovely. I tend to keep it simple with one color, but she can do complex nail techniques and nail art if that's your preference. She uses high quality products and I can see and feel the difference. She stays quite busy (so book well ahead of time!) and will still do her best to fit in last minute appointment requests. She's one of the best kept secrets in this area!

Small note that there is a mani/pedi combo package towards the bottom of the list - I tried multiple times to book both a mani and pedi at the same time (and failing) before realizing! Parking downtown depending on the time of day can be a little challenging, but it is towards the end of downtown which makes it a little easier. Charming Nail Shop is located on the second floor, and there are two seats to wait at inside if she's finishing up with previous clients! You can pick a color while you wait - her variety is pretty extensive, and she recommended me to try a polish with "diamond finish" that truly held up flawlessly for almost three weeks, and is still holding up strong as I grew out my nails for the next three months lol. Mani and pedi were both really relaxing experiences - the soak and massage was lovely, and she made great conversation (out of this introvert!) to pass the time. My appointment did take longer than planned but I enjoyed the little spa moment for me. Thanks again for the great experience, would highly recommend for others to try out for a special relaxing moment!
