    My first time here was amazing! Shelby did an amazing job choosing the right color for my hair. She is so kind, friendly, and skilled. I truly enjoyed getting my hair done by her. Overall great experience and loved the end results.

    Hair by Kathy Long Blonde Balayage Highlights and a Haircut

    Kathy, aka Kat, does amazing work!!! She is a super sweet person who really cares about having a happy client. She really listened to me as I described my hair goals and even asked questions to make sure we were on the same page. The best part is that she delivered and I am extremely happy with the work she did. Just love my my blonde balayage highlights and haircut...now I can't wait for my next appt! The salon itself is also very nice. Excellent client care. Lots of great beverages to choose from and enjoy during your service. The space is clean and pretty and full of amazing products. Just remember to ask for Kathy!

    I only go to this salon because Jane Hulsey is there. She is the best in the business. I started going to her over 6 years ago and then I moved up both to the Bay Area. I have tried countless other people to handle my blonde hair and no one has ever even come close. Not only does she do the best blonde in all the state but she is fast and very reasonably priced. I keep telling her she should charge more for the quality she provides. I now drive 3.5 hours every couple of months just to get my hair done. Hands down she is the best I have ever met. She is well worth the drive and provides excellent customer service on top of everything else! In over 6 years I have not one single complaint and will continue to go to her until she stops doing hair, no matter the distance. She is the blondemaster but can truly handle anything no matter the color or cut. Once you go to Janae you will be hooked.

    My three-colored hair. Impressive considering I asked for a single color. The nasty yellow sticks out like a sore thumb outside.

    The customer service was terrible. I called needing an emergency single-color dye. My hair now has three colors and there wasn't enough time to fix it before I traveled the next morning. When I called to express my concern about the color(s) I was told, "Well... I guess you could come back...". The woman who was working on my hair spent the majority of her time complaining about the job to another employee and mentioned often that she needed to get home to her daughter. I think the fact that English is my second language made her feel comfortable enough to complain about me in front of me. I understand the importance of family but don't accept a client if you're simply going to rush the job to get back to your personal schedule. It was far too expensive ($200!) for the shoddy work. A glass of wine and some hair dye does not a beauty salon make. P.S. Why do hair salons nowadays only hire heavily tattooed purple/pink/blue haired women? Is that supposed to be reassuring or something? "I look like a fool so I know what I'm doing." ?????

    Great location here in Bakersfield off Ming and Buena Vista

With appointments and without appointments I've never had to wait longer than a few minutes. 4. No language barrier!! I believe everyone there speaks English, at least everyone I've met! 5. Pricing is fair and they are pretty transparent about any charges or add ons! I do these things on a budget, so it matters! My hubby loves joining for the occasional man pedicure.... Absolutely spoiled! I love dreamy nails!

I was seated quickly, and the staff was very friendly and welcoming throughout the visit. I treated myself to a gel pedicure and a builder gel manicure. The salon hd a relaxing atmosphere, and I appreciated that I never felt rushed. Unfortunately, the quality of my manicure didn't quite meet my experience. My guilder gel wasn't as smooth was I had hoped and had a few noticeable bumps, and the gel polish started chipping after three days, which was disappointing considering the service. I spent $150 for both services. I'm willing to give them another chance because everyone was so kind and welcoming, and I'm hopeful my next visit will have a better outcome.

    After failed attempts at three other highly rated nail salons on Yelp in one day (one no longer in…read morebusiness and the other two only take appointments), I decided to go back to Royal Nails. I had been here once before, and I liked it, but yelp reviews aren't great and it's a bit far for me personally. However, this may be my go-to spot from now on. I don't know a lot about nails or pedicures, but I thought they did a great job: pedicure options are good, prices are reasonable, and I especially appreciate that they don't pressure you to pick the most expensive package or make you feel awkward about how much you've tipped. I've gotten Anna (or maybe it was Hannah..) both times and she is the sweetest, and cutest little old lady. They offer you water or soda (idk of soda is an additional cost, but water isn't) Although this may be controversial, I also really appreciate that everyone gets to work and isn't chatting away and making you feel awkward like they're talking about or making fun of you. Update: I've been here 3 times now and on my most recent visit, I did not get to ask for Anna and I was quite disappointed in the lady who helped me. She just kept moving and pushing my feet around instead of just asking me to move them up or down (yes, she spoke English). It seems she was annoyed from the start. I will definitely not stay if Anna is not available.

    I liked the service They had men do your nails…read moreI had Nine do my gel pedicure, he was very meticulous, liked the service. It's a big place, lots of women having their nails done. Price was very reasonable.
