    What I had
    Ayden N.

    I am beyond upset and disappointed with the haircut I received here. This was a rare occasion where I decided to get a "professional" cut for an upcoming promotion at work, and I am leaving looking worse than I have in years. To be clear, I did my due diligence. I called ahead and specifically asked if they could do a men's haircut, and I was assured they could. When I sat in the chair, the stylist Tanya immediately told me she couldnt do skin fades. I said, "Okay, perfect," because that's exactly what I didn't want. I explained that my usual style is a more grown-out, longer look. I even showed a clear inspiration photo to ensure we were on the same page. She then proceeded to completely ignore everything I said. Not only did she not follow the photo, but she cut my hair drastically shorter than I asked for. When I voiced my concern, saying it was already too short, she decided to take even more off, making the situation infinitely worse. I usually cut my own hair, and I consistently get a result ten times better than this. The one time I trust a professional with a major life event, my trust was completely misplaced. I am so angry and frustrated. My hair is completely butchered, and I now have to face a big career milestone feeling insecure and unhappy. Save yourself the regret and go somewhere else. 1+ year of hair growth down the drain in less than 20 minutes due to a negligent hair stylist

    What I got
    Wendy B.

    Ok... ever since my raving review, I've been back twice. Once for my daughter n I, we both left pretty upset after our cuts weren't what we wanted. My son has gone there twice, first time, he got the perfect wolf cut, second time, butchered. Then, on a whim, I take a risk n went yesterday, explained in detail what I wanted, not at all what I got. *sigh* I was nervous, went to a different girl, n omg, no. I won't be going back. The girl was really sweet, my cut? Not a bob. I got a Bixie. I used to tell everyone about this place, now I'll tell them to run away. I'm heartbroken, wondering how I'm going to work with my hair looking as it does. I absolutely HATE my cut! I added what I wanted vs what I got pics. She even said "how can anyone mess up a bob?" When I told her I was afraid of her messing it up because of previous experiences.

    Oh wow what can I say...once again, Shear Magic, specially Fernanda today, was absolutely amazing!! Took the teen in for a pretty significant hair style cut and change and Fernanda nailed it with only a quick screenshot we had for refernce!! Upon arrival we were greeted with smiles and welcomed right in to the beautiful salon. Very clean and such a fun and positive vibe. Everyone is just happy and I can't help just smiling there. Highly recommend all the stylist here and we will definitely be back. You'll love them too!! Thank you so much Shear Magic!!

    Teresa fixed my hair after trying to get it cut with someone else in OC.

    This is my second review, now sure if that's allowed. I found this place when I moved to the Fresno area and although I go long periods of time between cuts, I always go here. Now I moved back to OC and tried getting my hair cut there. Long story short, I took advantage of the fact that I happened to be temporarily back in Clovis to get my OC cut fixed and as per usual, I am VERY pleased with the results... to the point where I think I'll just wait 'til I'm in the area to get it cut in the future.

    1st visit vs 2nd visit.

    1st pic- spent $300+ and absolutely loved my hair! 2nd pic- spent $100+ when I went back to get it toned and this is what I got. I normally receive good service here, but was left so very disappointed this last time. I was told during my first visit that my color would be writen on a note so I can come back in a few weeks to refresh the color. I come back for a refresh and have a different stylist who was guided by my initial stylist on the color I wanted. After my hair was toned/dried, I showed the stylist a picture of my inital red hair and told them this is what I wanted, and that it was not the same. The stylist said it will "lighten up a little" later, and that the first time my hair was bleached, so that's why it's not the same color. Both pictures were taken on the same day I colored my hair, in my room, at night (9pm, 11pm), under the same lamp, 6 weeks apart, using the same phone. I wanted to replicate similar conditions for the 2nd pic to make it fair and show the difference in color. I am giving it 2 stars because I did like the way they previously done my hair. I absolutely loved my first color and now I'm so upset/ashamed of my hair. I'm lucky it's summer and I can keep it up while I wait to redo it myself.

    I was a bit concerned off of recent reviews but I needed a haircut. I knew what I wanted.Sorta ( grease rizo pixie or 20's bob) I decided that I'd give it a try... Tina was my hairdresser: She understood my wants and my concerns, she consulted with me and gave feedback to help me make my final haircut choice. Tina delivered a haircut I am soooo happy with. I am a former hairdresser and I appreciate her skill level, technique and customer service. I prebooked my clean up before I left. Bonus on the location: right next to vons! got 2 errands done at once! FYI TINA is retiring soon so book your appointment soon!

    My first highlight & haircut in June. It lasted through oceans, pools, sun, and sand. :)
    Amber J.

    I started going to Shear Magic in June when I needed a last minute cut & highlights done for my birthday. I went in for a free consult, and showed 3 different pictures of what I wanted done with color and the hair cut. Mackenzie, the stylist, followed the pictures perfectly. I wanted different bangs as compared to the haircut and she did an awesome job. She even gave my hair a beach style like the picture I showed her. The cut and color lasted 2 months through a ton of time in the sand, ocean, & sun. I went in for my roots & a haircut, & again, I am happy with the results. Mackenzie has been cutting hair for 10-11+ years and it's what she loves to do so it shows in her work. For being a little neighborhood salon, their highlights last a very long time & their haircuts are awesome. I've gotten a ton of compliments on my hair.

    New Look Salon - I had layers in my hair she was really quick nice and was able to give what kind of cut that you will need

    New Look Salon

    Love this place…read more Nice, clean, and quiet just the way I like! I usually go to Nikki for all of my hair needs.. Every time I get a ton of highlights and a color. And I'm never unsatisfied with the outcome. She takes her time and actually gives you what you ask for. And she'll work around your schedule, which is a plus! I called in to make an appointment and she was able to get me in that same day. Pricing was average, well worth it. The place wasn't very hard to find either, just right behind CVS. And the owner was sweet.. Really enjoyed my first experience here and I will be back to get my ombré!

    Asked for short layers. After the cut, I was unsatisfied with cut for these reasons: 1. Layers were…read morenot short 2. It was obvious where the layers began 3. My hair looked like it was just cut horizontally, no blend in between layers or the bottom. After nicely stating my concerns, she made the layers shorter but neglected all else. I stated my concerns again and another lady came to address it and with one look she said she saw the problems. She fixed everything but not the bottom since there wasn't much she could do. I did not mind that the cut was bad as long as she fixed it but I did not appreciate that she would let me walk out of the salon with a bad hair cut, she was unwilling to apologize or admit it wasn't good. The other workers supported her, I understand that supporting and empowering your employees is good but for the sake of good hair and costumer service, this place lacks integrity. At the end I was not happy with the cut but didn't want to be rude so paid the unreasonable $20. I will never return to this salon. My intentions are not bad with this honest review, hopefully it can save others from another experience or if read by owners, hopefully they will change.
