Rhonna is an amazing hair stylist! She helped with the big chop and gave me a gorgeous hair style that actually makes me look younger.

Brandi can whip some hair yall. It's a family run business. Brandi is timely and professional. Love it here.

I have been going to this salon since the very early 2000s Before that I went to Rare Touch 1 in Campbell owned by their (Ronna and Reginas father. I felt the need to share on Yelp the text message I sent to Brandee who has been doing my hair, weave installs for a long time. This family owned business has now transitioned to family to me. The text below is what I sent today.... Hey Brandee, It was so nice seeing you as always. I just want you all (you, Rona, Regina) to know that spending time with you while gettin my hair did Then I leave w my tummy a little still sore from all the laughter and conversation while getting my hair all the way together It always feels like a slice of home.

I have been looking for a new hairdresser for a while in the Fremont/Newark area. I've only ever had one person to work on my hair and you become very sceptical on who you let touch your hair. I found Rare Touch 2 on here and saw the good reviews. I was like let me check it out. I called Saturday for an appointment on Tuesday. I don't get off until 6pm and they were able to accommodate me. Porsche was amazing. I'm a very simple person when it comes to my hair and usually I don't like my hair when after it first gets done but when she turned me around I was in love with my hair. My mom is looking for another hairdresser also. I will definitely recommend Porsha and Rare Touch team. Thanks you! read more

If you're looking for professionalism & stylists who appear to enjoy what they do, this is the place to go to! Thank you Rhonna. read more

Rare Touch - Installation by Rhonna - Hair Salons Near Me - Fremont, California

See all

I had a terrible experience here. This is by far the worst salon I've been to in the Bay Area. They started me late, were belittling in general, AND THEN charged an extra fee on my credit card after I left the salon. Don't go here. There are a ton of other salons in Fremont. read more

I literally come here every 2 weeks to see Regina. She has literally took my hair from damaged to flawless in less than 6 months. I get compliments daily on how healthy my hair looks, feels and is all because of Regina. Regina is a very classy and polite woman. She's prompt and always leaves a lasting impression every time I walk out of there. There are about 4 or 5 women there altogether who all do a wonderful job for the services you're looking for whether it's a wash and flat iron, a sew-in or perm they all know what they're doing in there. And they are a family owned business. Excuse me, an African-American family-owned business which is very awesome! I love coming here and as long as they're here I'll be coming back. read more

I found this salon on Yelp. I have been looking for a salon for months. I had asked friends and family for a referral for a salon handling African-American hair in the Fremont/Newark/Union City area, but most of them came back with recommendations that were just too far away. I called on Wednesday, thinking that I wouldn't be able to get in until after the holiday weekend. To my surprise, they were able to schedule me with Brandy that afternoon! I only waited a few minutes when I got into the salon for my appointment. She understood my hair problems (let's just say I'm not good at self-maintenance!) and worked with my nest! Best of all, the service only took a couple of hours! My haircut came out great, I feel better about myself, and I would not hesitate to come back to this salon! read more

Shameka is the best! She will have your hair feeling like silk. I started going to her in 2003 and I trust her with scissors (more than I can say for many stylists). Her cuts are precise and promotes hair growth. Her customer service is good and she is open to feedback about how YOU think your hair should look. I moved from the area in 2006 but still go to her when I'm in the area. PROS - prompt service - great with hair color, hair cuts, and hair care - clean shop and good atmosphere CONS - none read more

It's Brandy! She is the boom! I love her work on my hair. She is consistently good and very calm and cool while working on you. They women that do hair at Rare Touch are all wonderful! Perfect name! Sista Monica read more

Shameeka here is fantastic! I've been wearing micro braids for about 9 months and now live in San Francisco, but if I ever move back to the East Bay and need styling (she does it all) I know Shameeka will have me looking fabulous. I've had a press-n-curl, flat iron, tracks put in (weave/extension), among other things and each time she never let's me down. She's also excellent at cutting thick hair and knows great techniques for making thinner hair appear fuller by layering. read more

I have been a client since 1992 and have formed great relationships with all of the stylist. They are all awesome and professional but Ronna is "my girl". She frequently has had to fix my do it yourself disasters and she can always find a way to rescue my hair. Her knowledge of hair is outstanding and I've never seen anyone leave her chair with an unattractive style. They all leave flowing, beautiful and confident!! I always get multiple compliments on my hair when I leave the shop. Not just from other clients but from random people I happen to encounter. Great for my ego. Thanks Rare Touch!! read more

I went to Regina this past week and she did a fabulous job on my hair. She did a color touch up for me and washed, blowdryed, and trimmed. My hair was bouncing and behaving when I left the salon!:) She doesn't take all day to do my hair and is a very nice person as well! I was so happy with my hair I made another appointment in 2 weeks with her. All the other stylists are nice as well and do a great job on hair! Parking is easy b/c its right outside the doors of the salon, and you can even watch TV while you get your hair done! read more

Ronna handled me so beautifully. There was no rushing but I wasn't ignored either. Louis did a fantastic shampoo. I had a virgin relaxer and a trim. Ronna was upfront about the bad cut Dwight left me with (see NeoMod in Palo Alto), but she fixed me up nicely. The salon is spacious and clean, with all ages and genders coming through. The discussion was fun, but never disrespectful. Thank You Rare Touch II. read more

I have been a happy client of of this Salon for over 7 years. Out of all the Salons that I have visited in my 30 years, Rare Touch has exceeded my expectations and made me feel comfortable. The environment is friendly and professional. Brandy, my stylist is awesome, she is very creative, takes her time and makes sure that I get out of her chair looking nice. I will always be thankful for her services especially because on my wedding day, she made sure my makeup and hair was perfect. When my daughter reaches the age of 4, Rare Touch will be the only salon styling her hair. read more

Naiya at Rare Touch was my stylist and I highly recommend her and this shop! I had a last minute need for braids and was able to get in ASAP! It's hard to find someone with a tender hand that doesn't leave your head crying for the next week! If you love in fremont and need a stylist for our difficult type of hair, I recommend rare touch for your needs! read more

What ever you do DON'T GO TO TONI! I sat in that salon for 4 1/2 hours to walk out pissed! The next morning I realized that she had singed my hair with the hot comb. That area eventually fell out and now I have a patch of hair that is about 2 inches long on top of my head. Her work was just flat out sloppy. read more

This place was a god send. My daughter had another stylist no show for her prom hair appointment. We called around trying to get a last minute appointment. Porsche was willing to fit her in, and did a great job. This will definitely be the new place she'll be coming to from now on. read more

I received the worst hair cut in the world from rare touch II. My hair was butchered by Regina who is one of the owners of the shop i believe. I came to her with a picture which clearly showed the hair style I wanted. She agreed that the hair cut was cute and she said no more about it. She never said to me that the cut was not in her skill set . She started to cut and i noticed she was taking off more then what was required for the hair style, but i didn't say anything b/c she is a "professional" or so i assumed. Once the hair cut was finished and my hair was styled i was shocked and livid at the end results. my hair was dry and ruff at the ends and i looked like Regina King from the early 90's definitely ,not what i was going for. I always give credit where credit is do but in this case, its not deserves. read more

it doesnt even deserve 1 star. it was THE WORST hair experience EVER. it was the nightmare of nightmare of experience. the owner kept me waiting for an hour before she spoke to me, then she kept me waiting another hour before she started me. i was a new client, and refered by a good friend of hers.she was triple booked. she cut off ALL my hair. i had hair to my bra strap, ok, so when i mean all i mean she shaved off half with clippers then cut the rest, what was left was 1 inch long. she left a perm on my virgin hair for 30 min while she finished 2 other clients. she charged me $110, her staff was rude, and unwelcoming. they treated me like an outsider, openly. it was the worst. and if i could express how awful..DO NOT GO HERE read more

I haven't been to the shops in years. So I started my search there was so many places I seen but something just didn't sit right with what I was seeing. As I was searching Rare Touch 2 kept popping up so I wrote all the info down I needed. So when I got off of work I decided to call I spoke with Regina first impression mean a lot to me. Regina was very warm and sweet but most of all professional. What I wanted she said she didn't do so she referred me to her sister Rona (don't kill me if i spelled it wrong lol) she was just as pleasant. I went to the shop and as the warmth I received on the phone was the same when I entered the shop . Rona was only looking to see how my hair was. She was very clear on how my hair was and what needed to be done. So I asked if she can do my hair she had only booked to do one head but she managed to squeeze me in without a second thought which was awesome and very kind of her. While I was there her daughter Brandy was there she was very sweet as well she was doing a young ladies hair and I can tell she loves doing hair which is a plus ladies you don't just want anyone in your hair lol. To make a long story short I walked out of that salon feeling like a million dollars. I'm so happy I found my hair a home. Shots out to all the lovely ladies at RARE TOUCH 2.......... read more
