During my appointment, Amy was very empathetic towards my situation and did one of the most magical hair transformations I've ever seen .

Both Amelia and Amy are such lovely people and I feel right at home in this salon . I happily drive from Mariposa to get my hair done here.

A second attempt by the girl was made and it was less grey, and still no bright blonde. I was told to wait a few washes and maybe I'll like it more, along with mentioning that the light above me was a blue light so outside it will be really different. $85 later I have brown grey hair, and no blonde. I am so upset and now will have to pay a second person to fix this.

I am in my 5th Year of going to this salon. When I first looked for a salon I wanted one that was…read moreclean and had appointments. All of these ladies schedules on are time, like a well-oiled machine. But instead I found something even better, a home that can take care of all of my "I deserve this" needs. The salons owner Melissa who takes care of my nails is an absolutely fabulous conversationalist but you won't hurt her feelings if you say you just rather sit and listen to your music or surf the web on your phone. Sage who does my hair. She can do any kind of hair, color, highlights extensions. If you're a guy you need a haircut or a little kid you need a haircut then Sage is your person. You've got Denise who does waxes, eyebrows, facials and a whole host of other things. There are additional Hair & Nail estheticians in the salon but I just can't remember their names at this time. All I can say is as soon as they get it a masseuse in I will be spending my entire Fridays in there. Thank goodness they are all young, well young based on my age. This means they won't be retiring soon and I will have Melissa and the whole crew for a long long time. If you are time oriented and need an appointment they are perfect if you just need to drop in they are perfect but I do suggest you call ahead if you want to drop in because they are just that busy. And one more thing you get what you pay for. You go to a cheap salon where they push people through like animals to a slaughterhouse, you get sloppy jobs. You come here and you get a super professional job and well worth every penny to look as beautiful as you can be. I dare you to be as beautiful on the outside with the help of these ladies as you are on the inside. This was written from my experience and my heart.

I really appreciated that she checked in several times throughout the haircutting process to make sure that it was coming along exactly how I wanted it. She even added a few extra touches, like putting in a little extra shine serum(which smelled like fresh strawberries and champagne-LOVE!). The price of my cut was very reasonable and nobody tried to push me into purchasing extra products or services, which I've experienced at other salons (and which pretty much ensures I don't go back). I left the salon with that great, bubbly, new-hair confidence we all hope to get after a service. The only area of improvement I'd mention: During my service I noticed a few other stylists swearing during their conversations. While I personally don't mind, there are more religious or traditional folks in Merced and you may run the risk of offending them with language like this. Just something to consider! Thank you for the great experience, Laura. Hopefully this review helps to reflect the higher rating this salon deserves.

Guess you should cross Martha off your list unless you're already a client. She did not offer to book me with anyone else in her salon, so guess she is alone or doesn't care about her other hairdressers who might like another client. I have been going to Vidal Sassoon in San Francisco for over 25 years and never had Sassoon not answer the phone during business hours, not promptly return phone calls or be so rude on the phone. Guess I will just make a day of it and drive to The City and see my old friends. Probably a better choice anyway.
