I'm going to admit it publicly... I'm a box dye kinda gal . (There's a stylist out there somewhere in the world who just passed out from me saying that). I know I KNOW... it's horrible for you BUT it's just convenient, ya know? It's like frozen chicken nuggets-fast, cheap, convenient, and horrible for you. It gets the job done event though it's temporary. Ok so what brought me to this moment? I had always talked about getting my hair done with my girl Jess. Jess and I go way back and she LOVES La Dama. She's goes way back with them. She gave me contacts for hair but right when I would think about booking, that box dye just whispers "I'm 2 for $14 at Target, Sis!" and I would put the phone down in a trance and go to Target. My hair was sad, lackluster. I think my dog's coat is better than mine. Anyway, so Jess plans this "girls trip" and we magically end up at the new La Dama salon that's in The Row. I'm thinking, oh she probably just needs to get a touch up, I'll just wait. NOPE! She was like, Happy Birthday & Merry Christmas B****! (She didn't add that last word. I added it for exaggeration because it was like a mic drop moment). So FIRST, damn this place is nice!!! It's so chic and incredibly decorated. Jessika (owner and not the "Jess" mentioned above LOL) is so nice!!!! Her and Evelin had their work cut out for them with my hair. You'll be proud though, because I switched to Olaplex 3 weeks prior to this happening so I got a little win in LOL (still ashamed of my box dye). Hair coloring is such a PROCESS. It's legit chemistry with color and it's so dope to watch. They'll be like "yea let's do a 4N and a 5C" (I made up those numbers off of slight recall but IYKYK). I was in and out of the chair for 2-3 hours maybe? I have so much more respect for stylists and am so humbled by the entire experience because each persons hair is different and has a different template. The ability to look at hair and know what a client wants would give me anxiety. When I was finished, my hair looked straight out of Pinterest. I think the first thing out of my mouth was "Oh damn" Hear me: I WILL NEVER GO BACK TO THE BOX. A little louder for those in the back: DROP YOUR BOX DYE, SIS! I made my touch up appointment with Evelin for January and I couldn't be any happier. I think what really did it for me, besides the fabulous hair, is that the women here are GENUINE. I felt cared for and they engaged it in meaningful conversation that made you feel at ease - Like you were talking to an old friend. Small businesses make me happy and women owned business just make my heart smile.

This is my hair before.

I wanted to take a moment to share my recent experience at your salon. While I appreciate the effort put into my haircut, I must express my disappointment with the final result. Unfortunately, the technique used did not align with what I had expected, and it ultimately didn't suit my hair type. I came in with a clear idea of the haircut I wanted, and while I understand that challenges can arise, I was hoping for a better outcome. The execution fell short of my expectations, leaving me feeling dissatisfied with the overall experience. I Trusted the stylist, when finished she did not style my hair which what a standard haircut comes with. I asked but she said that she had no time as she had scheduled someone else. I decided to just leave at that point she also asked me if she could fix anything. I said no as I didn't want my haircut any shorter. I believe there might have been a miscommunication regarding the style or perhaps a misunderstanding of my hair type. I was confident that the haircut I requested was within the realm of possibility for my hair, yet the end result proved otherwise. Moving forward, I would encourage a closer attention to detail and a deeper understanding of clients' hair types and preferences. Clear communication throughout the process is key to ensuring customer satisfaction.

I Am Speechless My sister kept recommending. I set up a hair appointment at La Dama and I cannot put into words how amazing I feel. I have been wearing the same hair color for over 10 years because I was afraid of change but as a woman we need to step into the fear of discomfort and let me tell you Jessika and Jordan made me feel like $1 million dollars. They took their time with me and made every moment feel luxurious. I felt like I was the only client in the salon. My hair feels so soft & so beautiful. I've gotten three compliments from just walking from the salon to the parking lot. Ladies, you're ready for a change. This is your sign - La DAMA salon! I Feel Unstoppable. I Feel Vibrant. I Feel FULL OF LOVE . Thank you for pointing into my soul and heart while getting my hair done. 10+ plus stars!!!

Jessika and her team at La Dama are absolutely amazing. There is a true artistry to her work that you just don't get everywhere you go. I've been coming to Jessika for a few years now and I can't imagine ever going anywhere else! I'm extremely picky, and to be able to say that I trust her completely and blindly is a huge statement! The color? Immaculate. The blend? Phenomenal. She has such a great team as well - every person I've ever seen walk out of this salon has looked stunning! I have really dark hair and the way she gets the blond balayage to blend in seamlessly is beyond me. If you're looking for a new salon, do yourself a favor and look no further!

Balayage, Cut & Style

I booked with my Stylist Alyssa and she Took Care of Me So Well! I made an appointment online; She was great at communicating and helping me decide what would be the best option for my virgen hair. I got a Balayage, Cut and Style and left feeling like the best version of myself! I absolutely recommend the La Dama Salon, it is beautiful and welcoming. Book with Alyssa and you will absolutely enjoy the visit.

I love La Dama Salon! I have had nothing but the best service with them. Last year, I was about to get married and my eyebrows desperately needed to be re-mircobladded. I had been going to another shop and they completely let me down by not being able to do the service prior to my wedding. I was absolutlely devistated, but thankfully I was able to meet with Brenda Zelaya from La Dama and she set me back on track for my big day. Brenda is an amazing artist who made me feel like her #1 priority and was able to transform my brows into the sophisticated look I had been searching for. Thanks to Brenda I looked just how I envisioned for my wedding. And since, I have received so many compliments on the brow shape/ color and overall look of my facial appreance (I swear I look younger!!!). I highly, highly, highly recommend going to her!!!

Balayage by Alyssa N.

A beautiful salon with talented stylists, great atmosphere with wonderful women running it. I had the privilege of getting my hair done by Alyssa Newbold. She was thorough with getting to know me before my appointment, in order to best serve me day of. Alyssa created the balayage of my dreams!!! She asked many questions, and also gave me many recommendations to make sure my hair would suit me overall. She also gave me some insight on hair-care, which was very helpful. I couldn't be happier with my visit at La Dama Salon, with Alyssa Newbold. I will be back!!! :-)

Alyssa does my color and she is so amazing! Alyssa does the most amazing vivid color looks but she also does a phenomenal balayage, extensions, etc. she is so bubbly and absolutely beautiful inside and out. I love being in her chair. She has done balayage as well as giving me all the coppers and reds. I always love how it turns out. Follow her insta: @loxxbylyss

I was looking for someone I could trust with my virgin hair and I found Alyssa Newbold through Instagram @loxxbylyss She did an amazing job Before the appointment she asked very detailed questions regarding my hair history, I appreciated that she took time to learn about my hair and make a game plan to get me my dream hair. She's truly talented

Regina S.

Can't say enough good things about my experience at La Dama! First of all, the salon is absolutely beautiful. Such an inviting ambiance, I love the minimalist yet sophisticated decor. Alyssa did my hair and she nailed it. It was my first time having my hair done with her and definitely won't be the last. She took so much care to make sure we got the result I was looking for and she also made sure to educate me on aftercare. I'm obsessed with my new color! Can't wait for my next appointment.

I wanted someone close by, but my gut kept drawing me to Candi--and my intuition was 100% right. The second I walked in, Candi made me feel right at home and completely eased my nerves. She carefully listened to my ideas, looked at my inspo pic, and ensured I was completely numb--the permanent eyeliner didn't hurt at all! I still have my follow-up left, but OMG, it's already amazing. She's going to add everything needed at my follow-up to make it look as much like my inspo pic as possible.She is such an absolute master at what she does that I went right back today for nano brows, and they look fantastic! Even my husband, who never notices details like this, took one look at me when I got home and loved them immediately. Candi actually listens to what you want instead of pushing her own agenda, but she also gives amazing professional suggestions.

I had an appointment at 10am but was not seen until 10:15am. There was no receptionist when I came in and a woman yelled out to me if I had an appointment. I replied that I did and was looking for the woman who was talking to me which was Gabby the permanent make up artist. She was working on a client and sat in the waiting area observing her space. Finally the receptionist arrives and gives me paper work to fill out. Nothing fancy just the typical brief medical history and allergy information. I was finally called in by Gabby herself and we went through the whole process of shape, color, measurements and so fourth, along with her asking me 20 thousand questions which is amazing because she definitely prides her work and wants to make sure the customer is happy! So she traces the eye brow on my face and they are a little thick to my liking but she explains to me that it won't be to thick. I like a skinny sexy eye brow and these were bold so I just went with it because ink on my face fades over time so if I don't like it, it will fade but everyone is not lucky like me to experience that (Gabby informed me). She also discussed the laws and regulations she has to follow regarding semi permanent tattoos and gave me a nice over view among small talk. She ended up doing individual hair strokes on me and even with the numbing cream it stung but not to bad! Once she was done my eye brows look super thick but defined and pretty. I was hoping they would shrink soon because I did want them thinner to begin with. She sent me home with instructions on how to care for them and to call her any time with any questions and concerns. I have my new eyes for a week and a day now, I am happy how they look but they are a tab bit thick for me but overall all I am happy with the results and hope these beauties do not fade too quickly over time like my previous procedures. I highly recommend Gabby, she is very professional sweet and will strive to do her best! Also she has so many certifications over 20! The best in Fresno! I regret not finding her for my first eye brow procedure. I have a follow-up in September so I am looking forward to it! I like waking up looking Fabulous!

The salon is always clean, and the staff is friendly and welcoming. They do accept walk-ins, which is very convenient.

They greeted us immediately upon entering and made us comfortable. We had requested the spa pedi so once escorted to the pedi area and seated, we were given a lovely glass of sparkling wine. Since Mother's Day is coming up, we were also given pink roses. Michelle and Anna did the pedicures. They were excellent techs and chatted with us throughout the whole pedi. They really made the experience even more special. I feel like I should also comment on the cleanliness of the salon. It was *impeccable*. Not even a bit of dust in the corners. It looked brand new but they've been there a long time. Very impressive. I can't recommend this place enough. Book! Now!

I got eyeliner done along the top of my eye with a slight wing and I had the best experience!…read more Maiyia is an absolute darling. She explained the process thoroughly and really took her time perfecting the outline for my consultation. My eyelids are fairly large but the structure of my upper eye area means they're covered during certain expression so eyeliner has always stamped above my eye eventually. I am someone who will need a blepharoplasty eventually and she not only listened to me but took the time to consider how the work would age over time which I really appreciate. The parking lot is a little tight but there are dedicated spots for this business so don't worry, you'll have somewhere to leave your car right out front. The salon is beautiful and very comfortable. Maiyia is warm and extremely pleasant to talk to. The procedure itself was comfortable and I felt in control the entire time. I feel like my consultation gave me really good expectations for the service and I was able to make an informed decision as far as shape and color and everything. I am honestly thrilled. The result is subtle enough to age with me but makes me look much more polished on no makeup days. This really doesn't hurt much. Your eyelids will be numbed. I felt more during eyelash extensions than I did the entire tattoo here. My eyelids swelled a little bit but it's barely perceptible and I could totally see to drive home. I would describe the pain level during as equitable to laser hair removal and the pain level immediately after is very light stinging. I really can't recommend this enough. I'm beyond thrilled and actually had a nice time which I did not expect. I didn't want anything else done when I came in but I stg I'm going to get lip blushing just to have an excuse to visit for an hour. She's that much of a doll. Pricing was very transparent, she takes cards and keeps to her quotes so you can feel confident going into this appointment. If you're thinking about it, I so so recommend. My pictures are maybe an hour after the process concluded. The effect is more dramatic in person than it photographs but it's honestly very adult/flattering and restrained. Absolutely thrilled. Know I've not even washed my face yet and if you've not had tattoos, there's ink that they wipe off as they apply so any smudginess is the excess ink. The line work is very clean and distinct Do know you can choose black or brown depending on how bold you want it. She will make sure it's flattering for your eye shape. ETA: also she did not do my eyebrows so don't judge her for how messy they are. That's allllll me.
