I'm a Navy wife, and relocated to Hanford about a year ago. I was spoiled in the past while living in a major metro area, where I had a highly skilled professional stylist in an upscale salon. When I married my sailor and moved away I didn't realize how difficult it would be to find someone with the same advanced training and passion for their craft! After moving to Hanford, I went to another salon that LOOKED nice, but ended up being the worst experience I had ever had! The stylist over processed my hair so badly, it was breaking off!! Over the course of a year, I went to a couple other salons, but never really got what I was looking for. I got average coloring results, and below averages cuts. Until I went to Michael McKelvey! (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1442140558) I walked into the Salon Cotoure with my hair in the standard ponytail. I hadn't worn it any other way for over a year because I was embarrassed of how the color made me look. I had nothing to lose and told Michael to do whatever, long, short, blond, brown... I honestly didn't care because I was at the point where ANYTHING would be an improvement! Michael literally transformed my appearance! He corrected the color and added much needed dimension to my hair. My fine hair was no longer hanging limp and lifeless, he only cut about an inch off, but was able to add body and volume back to my hair. The previous color had washed out my skin and my blue eyes, but after Michael was done, people began to notice (and complement) my eyes again. Most importantly, I feel pretty again! There are very few professional stylists that have the talent to do what Michael has done for me; it's taken me nine years to find someone that is even worth going back to again. If you haven't decided whether or not to make an appointment with Michael yet, call and get in as soon as you can, you will not be disappointed! read more

I've avoided having my hair cut since March 2014. That's correct, I went almost an entire calendar year before having it cut. I've had some less-than-stellar experiences, so I was a little scared. So on Thursday, 2/19 I made an appointment for Monday, 2/23. I received a call on Friday morning confirming my appointment. On Monday, I showed up for my appointment about 15 minutes early. My stylist was Rechelle. She was very friendly and upbeat and of course asked what I wanted. I had pictures of what I didn't want (i.e. pictures of my most recent haircuts from other stylists in the area) and then showed her my Pinterest board of what I do like. She got to work and gave me the best dang scalp massage I've ever received. All throughout my haircut, she made polite conversation (but not the awkward polite conversation that usually happens in the chair. You know what I mean.) and made my experience exceptional. She also curled my hair and showed me exactly what she was doing the entire time so I can hopefully re-create the look. So I basically got a shampoo, massage, good conversation, cut , style, and a tutorial all in the space of an hour. The pricing was also way lower than I was expecting, which is also a great surprise. I'll definitely be going back to Rechelle from now on! read more

salon cotoure is such a great place. the atmosphere makes you feel welcomed and cozy. the look and design of the salon reminds me of a fancy place somewhere in hollywood. my hairstylist there is nancy pereira. she is unlike any stylist ive ever had before. she is so passionate about what she does and is constantly educating herself with more classes to know the latest in the industry and to know the best products and techniques for her customers. i get so excited every time i have an appointment to see her. not only is she the best hair dresser but she is one of the sweetest people i know. my mom is also one of her clients and feels the same way about her. shes so diverse, being able to do my hair and my moms hair and keep both kinds of clients happy. we live in clovis and we travel all the way to hanford to go see nancy. that is how good she is. you will not be disappointed when you leave the salon. i receive constant compliments on my hair and i always credit it back to miss nancy! read more

I've been going to Salon Cotoure for several months now. At first I was leery, because I live in Fresno -- so the commute to Hanford can be a pain at times. After my first visit, I very quickly found that the drive is totally worth it. The salon is extremely inviting and the staff are all friendly, talkative, and welcoming. If you're early, they've got a really nice waiting area with snacks and coffee/tea. I'd say that one of my favorite parts of visiting the salon are the chair massagers that massage your back while you're getting your hair rinsed and washed. On to the employees. As I've already said, they're all great and friendly. However, I've got to give a shout out to Nancy Perreira. She's got wicked talent and will give a perfect cut tailored to you. She was trained by the best at the Vidal Sassoon Academy, and it shows. If you're feeling adventurous or extra bold - get one of her creative cuts. She rocks it, and you'll be rockin, too! read more

I really enjoy coming here. Great location. Friendly people. Great atmosphere. Would you like a tea while you wait? Smiles all around. My stylist, Nancy, does an amazing job every time. I'll soon be moving and I'm worried about anybody else cutting my hair. A pretty typical male, I don't have much experience with upscale salons, but I felt good in this place since I first walked in and have been coming here for nearly 2 years now. I've come to realize how much more you get than your typical $15 haircut. I believe Nancy only charges $20 or $25. I now realize that $15 for the generic supercuts cut is a ripoff. Come here for the professional treatment that you wont regret. It's also in the "happening" area of Hanford. Reserve some time before or after your appointment to visit the local shops or eateries. In summer, get an appointment Thursday afternoon so you can step out and into the farmer's market. You deserve it Yelpsters! read more

I have gone to Nancy Pereira to have my hair colored and cut. When i went to get my hair colored i absolutely loved it. She takes the time to understand exactly what you want and leaves you looking great. She is the only person who has done the ombre look look ombre. I went to her when my hair was extremely damaged and and she cut about 6 + inches of my hair. My hair had never been so short but i trust her enough to let her do that. I never thought i would be ok with having short hair but she made the cut look great. Her passion and personality is something that you can't find anywhere else really. She is so down to earth and whatever you need she will do. She is always educating herself on the newest trends so that's always a plus. You can actually check some of her work on her FB page. https://www.facebook.com/pages/SwankD/329657483758643 read more

I have so many positive things to say about Salon Cotoure! The salon is tucked away in the old bastille building in downtown Hanford giving it history and charm. The interior has a wonderful, warm ambiance where you are welcome warmly and accommodated with drinks and snacks in a comfortable waiting area. The staff is absolutely awesome, especially Nancy Pereira. She has such a passion and true creative gift. In fact, she helped me plan the makeup and hair for my wedding by ranging up her colleagues and makeup artist to do my mom, mother-in-law, and bridal party's hair and makeup at the salon. Every time I go there it is a true treat because I know I will be going to a wonderful environment where Nancy enhances the beauty in me. read more

Before i walked into the salons doors i checked out their website. I instantly fell in love with the pictures and couldn't wait to see it in person. As soon i walked in the door i knew i was "home". The atmosphere is so relaxing and the staff is so friendly and really do go that extra mile to make you feel comfortable. My stylist is Nancy Pereira. I am blown away by her work. I have been to her three times and she has made me a client for life. She takes the time to find out what you really want and lets you know what will work for you and what wont. I highly recommend the staff and services at this salon. You will NOT be disappointed. read more

This place is FANTASTIC!!!! I had the best day spa experience here. I am a self proclaimed "spa junkie"! And this one is one of the best! Erin was amazing with her facial. She is so nice and knowledgable. The massage was beyond my expectations. I am pretty picky and the massage therapist there (i'm blanking on her name) was fantastic. She was the one of the top massages I have ever had!! If you ever have the chance to go, please do. My pedi was great too (thank you Monica!) I can't wait till I return. And they have the best product lines there too. Obagi, Dermatologica, Aveda.... OH MY!!! I was IN HEAVEN!!!!! :) read more

Salon couture is a breath of fresh air. It has a inviting, warm atmosphere. Some nice salons can have a snooty feel but that is not the case here. As far as the performance, it's exceptional. It's easy to get a hold of the stylist and if not, their receptionist is always helpful and kind. Nancy Pereira is my stylist there and I couldn't be happier with her work. Her creativity is truly unique. I constantly get compliments on her work. I look forward to my appointments because I always am welcomed by their friendly staff and leave feeling beautiful. read more

I love everything about Salon Cotoure & Spa, the service, the front desk personnel, and the location. It really is a full service salon, but the real reason I come is my stylist, Megan. A friend (with cute hair) told me about Megan. I've been with her since. She is an artist. She listens, takes her time and always treats me like it's my first visit, even though I see her every 3 weeks. I know that the stylists at Salon Cotoure have been the top stylists in Hanford for years now and I would 100% recommend this place. read more

I have been going to Nancy at Salon Cotoure for about 2 years.. The salon is great, very classy and everyone is friendly. I won't let anyone but Nancy touch my hair! Ive had so many stylists through the years complain about how thick my hair is and she just does her magic! She's professional, friendly and such an artist! Prices are great and I can't wait to get my next cut/color! I moved 3 hours out of the area but plan my visits w nancy when I go to visit family. read more

Nancy is amazing with hair! I'm not the very creative type so I just walk in and tell her the style I'm going for and makes it happen. I've been going back to her for years and wouldn't trust anyone out here in Fresno or anywhere else to my hair! She's so creative and her spunky energetic personality just makes my visit worth the time and money! Love Nancy Pereira! read more

Back when i had hair, Nancy would take what i had remaining and make me look slick as f*ck. I currently rock the Mr. Clean look (pause) She does however take care of my county bell. I don't know how, but she make her look even more beautiful. Any place that has Nancy, has my thumbs up read more
