Brazilian waxing experience with Shardonnay 0/10. I scheduled an appointment with Shardonnay for…read morethe first time because I'm new at San Diego. I read about her before booking the appointment and it said she was the employee with the most time in the company. However, her attitude was tremendously horrible. I have to clarify that I arrived on time to the place, but the girl at the lobby was attending another client and was giving her a full introduction about all the packages and promotions they have, and afterwards she proceeded to charge her for the service she had taken. The receptionist took around five to six minutes doing it, until I had to interrupt her and tell her that I had an appointment at 5:30 pm with Shardonnay. It is at that moment that she notified Shardonnay of my arrival. When Shardonnay received me, she had an extremely negative attitude with me, since from the moment she greeted me, she did not allow me to go to the bathroom (which I needed) and started giving me a lecture about punctuality, without even asking me or asking herself or asking receptionist girl, if I had arrived late or if something had happened at the reception. It was to the point that she was not even able to greet me, but very frustrated about her tight schedule, she basically started scolding me and telling me that the service was not going to be the best because she only had 8 minutes to attend me since she had another client after me and that I "had arrived late"... Now, it is important to clarify that if that had been the case, the place policies give a 8-minute window to the client to arrive and still receive a good service. However, she kept saying that the service wouldn't be the best. At first I stayed quiet, but after she kept literally blaming and scolding me, I told her to do her job, but that I did not agree with her attitude, cause of course she had a very bad attitude cause of her frustration. She kept arguing and arguing until I literally had to tell her "just do your job". Very shamelessly she tried not to attend me because she now felt that I was angry, thing that I did not allow her to do because I did not drive from Chula Vista to Miramar, 30 minutes, for her to cancel my appointment just because she was in a bad mood. I sat down and took my service. She did a Brazilian service in 5 minutes. It hurt a lot, of course, because she was already upset and also in a rush, so she was very rough when pulling the wax. Afterwards she realized her mistake and started apologized, to which I literally responded that she didn't have to, what she did was already done. I only made her aware that I arrived on time, the receptionist took time attending another client, and I paid the price for it. So she can keep the apologies and that for next time she learn the lesson and at least she can greet and say what she have to say in a proper way. Would I go back? ABSOLUTELY NO, and especially not with her. She may have been working there for many years, but her service and customer attention is THE WORST. She could have gained a loyal client, but because of her rudeness she did not.

All three times they ended the massage with 5 minutes left, and all three times they spent 95% of the time on a single general area while only spending a few minutes on the rest of my body. The massage quality itself was decent, but nothing special, especially for the price, and there was too much chiropractic-type work with the "strong hands" massage which should have been sports massage like it claimed, but it was not. The head rest on the tables is also angled downwards slightly for some reason, which makes it so your neck ends up supporting your head more than the head rest does. Nice decor and the place looks high quality, clean, especially the bathroom with a literal full makeup vanity table inside of it, but that doesn't make up for the high prices without the quality or consistency (or actually listening to the customer) to back it up.

I feel like there was a sign saying you'd even get a discount if you did, but I can't remember for sure. So if you're wondering why there's so many 5-star reviews...

The very first time I went to this salon, way back when, I felt the warmth, affection and the way they treated their customers, with dignity and respect. Kevin and his team are the best. Making an appointment is so easy and very accommodating. The awesome about it, they know me by my first name as if I am a part of the family. Don't get me wrong, all of them are fabulous but there is one person I always ask for. Her name is Trina Kazem. I've known Trina for so many years now. She always makes me feel good and of course, looks wonderful :) She is so friendly and pays attention to details and very much knowledgeable. I trusted her doing my hair without a doubt. I love her. I am and will continue coming to Fancy Salon because of Trina and the way they acknowledge me as if I am a celebrity. Thank you Kevin, your staffs and of course to you Trina for such a wonderful, wonderful ways of treating your customers like me. Tessie Carpio 619 518 6287 read more

Kevin has been consistently GOOD with my hair. For more than 10 years, I have had different services from Fancy Salon (Kevin), color, highlight, straightening, and cut. Most recent was Brazilian blowout. Every time I came to work after "seeing Kevin", my co-workers always complemented/asked: "Who did your hair? I want to go there! They did GOOD JOB!" I am one hundred percent recommending Kevin. Ladies and Gentlemen, we are told never to judge a book by its cover, but I think it's perfectly acceptable to judge a person by her/his hair. From wild and crazy to simple and sweet, how you wear your hair can say a lot about your personality. Please take good care of your hair. If you haven't seen Kevin, do it now! read more

I came in to get a trim on my hair and I always wanted to do something new with my boring hair, but I didn't know. I talked to them and we decided with highlights and they gave me a cut and I got layers. Cut was exactly how I wanted it and the highlights came out great! She only charged me 100$. For a cut and highlight, I thought it was a steal! Also I told them I was in a rush for a party I was hosting and after she was done with my hair, she asked for help to curl my hair to one of the other worker. And now I had two people putting in work to curl my hair so it was faster! Customer service 5/5, pricing for what I did 5/5. read more
