I made a hair color appointment with Vivian. Just to get my roots touched up with black color. I had told her a few times that I know black is hard to get out so she can wash it really good. Well, not only she did a sloppy job putting the hair color on where I asked her to remove the color off my forehead and on my ears, but after she washed it, there was still so much left over that when I would scratch my head, my fingernails would turn black. Inside my ears were all black! I told her that and she looked at me like she didn't care I said never mind. I blow dried my own hair right there and I just took off with it half wet. She even charged me the entire amount! Stay away from Vivian she's horrible and afterwards I looked up reviews and all the bad ones are on her read more

I took time off of work and wasted my time and gas just for the stylist to do a no show. I arrived at 9am on a Thursday for an appointment I booked weeks ago because the stylist wouldn't do weekends. I sat there for 30 minutes waiting before I was contacted by the stylist via IG (because that's all they wanted to communicate on). She cancels due to not having a sitter? Unprofessional. I ask if another one of the 3 stylists could do a simple tone and no one could help. Shocking... don't go here unless you want someone to waste your time. Mind you one of the stylists was just sitting there blow drying and styling herself. Not having my instagram information seems to be a personal problem because that's the method of contact YOU choose to put in your policy -YOU should've put it down on your calendar when we booked. I handled myself graciously over DMs but all I wanted to do was cry and get angry. Vivian didn't attempt to rebook me for a later date that would work with my schedule nor offered any compensation for wasting my time. And to the stylists there - she's giving you a bad rep. read more

If you're looking for a hair stylist who actually cares and takes their time to do an amazing job, then I HIGHLY recommend Tammy!! I went to her for the first time in Dec to get my hair fixed after another stylist butchered it, I seriously looked like I just got done playing with the weed Wacker it was so bad. I had a wedding to go to and Tammy got me in right away and did an amazing job fixing it. I decided to go back to her for coloring and a trim recently and i couldn't be any happier with how it turned out! . She actually cares about making sure your hair comes out the way you want!!! read more

I came here to get my hair done for the first time, I was unsure what I wanted, didn't know anything about hair, but Sammi was super patient and helpful. I had what I call "depression hair" because I suffered from severe depression for years, my hair was dead and awful, but Sammi brought not only my hair back to life but myself as well. I went home and cried because I felt like my old self again. I absolutely love the way my hair turned out. The vibe around the salon is welcoming and full of energy. Definitely recommend this salon, all the stylists seem so great! read more

I should have listened to all of the comments about Vivian. What a disappointing experience.

Never request Tammy at the Loft she is the most unprofessional stylist I have ever come across, made an appointment with her will in advance, she requested photos of my hair several days in advance which I sent to her, sent what I wanted and she sent me text message after 5:30 the night before my appointment saying find another hair stylist to do your hair. I am leaving on my vacation in 4 days at 3:30 am . What an unprofessional person. Never request her super unreliable. read more

This was the only place available to get a hair cut as I wanted one quickly and didn't want to wait more than a week for appointment at 3 different local salons I called before this one. Long story short got a long layered haircut by Priscilla. Not my first time doing long layers. At the time my hair was styled pretty but once I washed it you could see how uneven and choppy my haircut was. A different hairstylist offered to fix my hair cause she said all my layers were at the tip and that the person who cut my hair should not have had to razor my tips. She said in doing so it contributed to ruining my hair so she advised I not use heat on my hair for a while. Anyhow, I had put a deposit for hair coloring but changed my mind. I called 5 days in advance to cancel and she said there was a no refund policy which I was not told about. She did say I could get another haircut and styling. Went in today for a style. Showed her a picture of what I wanted. Not what I got. So pretty much the 60.00 deposit I gave her that she didn't refund paid for my styling today. All she did was blow dry it and quickly run a curling iron through it. So maybe hair color is her thing but not cutting or styling. When I told her someone else had fixed it because she didn't cut it right she caught an attitude. read more

My hair got butchered by someone else at another salon, I had gone to Benson a couple of years ago and so glad I found him again. He brought my hair back to life, made it look amazing!! My layers are blended amazingly, my hair over all looks amazing! I definitely recommend going to Benson! He is so professional and really knows what he's doing! Definitely going back when it's time for a trim or a new look! read more

I left my old salon after finding Benson and never looked back! He does exactly what I want and makes it fun at the same time!! My hair was grown out from finding a new salon and my search efforts really paid off. The process seemed so easy and I'm in love with it. The atmosphere at the Loft is so welcoming and I think I found my new salon home. Thank you Benson read more

My wife had paid for a ombré hairstyle & the hairstylist that did her hair decided to do her own thing & not go by with the client had specified. A few days later when we had noticed her hair color was not even, we had reached out to my friend at the time(Benson) that referred us to the stylist by the (Sami) which I don't recommend! I had let him know through messages that my wife's hair was uneven & he ( Benson) responded with a VERY rude comment calling my wife a bitch because he had said hi to her not knowing my wife's personality & she being a shy person she is he mentioned she was a bitch and she will never sit at his chair because of her not acknowledging his comment. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL IF YOU ASK ME!!! I WILL NEVERRRRRRR REFER ANYONE HERE EVERRRRR AGAIN!!!!!!!! P.S. they act entitled and as if they know what the clients want but do their own thing and RUIN YOUR HAIR!!!! If I can give this business a -0 I totally would! Save your money pls and look at other options other than this place!! read more

I made an appointment with Vivian. Asked for a quote. I sent her the current status of my hair, along with a picture of the desired look. Btw I live in Fresno and drove to Visalia. I sit in her chair and we were going over the color I wanted. She then touches my hair and says she can't do my hair.I asked why? She said because my hair was too dry! Which was very shocking to me. I have never been told this since I've been doing my hair for 30 years. I explained to her that it probably looked like that because it had been 7 months since I've had my hair done. I asked if she could at least add highlights to the healthy part of my hair, so it looks like I got my hair done. She said yes and than she said no. My hair was too dry! It was just too weird. I don't know what was up her butt! I was really in shock. I personally think she is not confident in her work is why she turned me away. She mentioned I had dry hair. My hair was not that bad! I've seen plenty of her before and after pictures, which look way worse than mine. I did allow her to cut my hair since I was there and she cut soo much off and didn't say a word through the whole process. All I can say is I had a very rude and unprofessional experience with her and I would never go back to her again! If your hair is slightly dry. Forget it!!Don't waist your time. I wouldn't recommend her to anyone at all! read more

I called The Loft yesterday and left a message stating I wanted on appt for a short hair cut and since I've never been there I requested someone with experience with shortcuts (I wanted a pixie). Samantha called me back and we discussed what I wanted and she said she felt confident she could do what I was asking for. I also sent her pics of the haircut I wanted. She gave me an appt for today at 5:00. At around 1:30 today I texted her about washing my hair and she texted back. I show up for my appointment three minutes before 5:00. I walked in and there was only one stylist working on someone's hair. I told her my name and that I had an appointment with Samantha at five, she responded, "that's me" and smiled. I was surprised that it looked like she had just started doing highlights on the client in front of her. Samantha didn't say anything so I sat down thinking that it was going to be just a few highlights but I waited and waited and after a long 30 minutes of waiting I got up and told Samantha that my appointment was at 5:00 and I had been waiting for thirty minutes and needed to be in Tulare at 6:30 and couldn't wait any longer (my time is also valuable and couldn't waste it anymore). She looked up at the clock and said "sorry". I asked if she took walk-ins and she said she would be back in the salon on Tuesday. I asked that because Samantha either took a walk-in or doble booked. I wasn't rude but felt irritated because she wasn't a professional. Maybe I was saved from getting a horrible haircut ‍ I will definitely never go back to that place, first and last time I step in The Loft. The only reason I gave a one star score it's because of the location. read more

I love Melissa! She walks me through it all, gives me suggestions, but doesn't pressure me into anything. I always leave without any regrets and get so many compliments about my hair. So if you're looking for a experienced hair dresser, she is your girl! read more

Samantha is probably the only stylist that has every dime exactly the hair cut or colors I ask for !!! The time she puts into my hair means a lot to me and I absolutely love her services !!! The loft is a beautiful salon and location is so unique read more

Hair dresser Vivian at this salon is extremely unprofessional! When I called to inquire about an appointment, the first thing she asked was, "How did you get my number?!". She had a horrible attitude throughout the conversation. Customer service is a huge for me. Rudeness is not required to get your point across. A business class is highly recommended for this hairdresser. Good luck! read more

Vivian must not realize she's in a customer service position. She is extremely rude and unprofessional. Are these the type of hairstylist you guys hire for your salon? Maybe you guys should actually look at all the yelp reviews and take them into consideration about her. read more

The Loft is the perfect location to sit back and relax while getting a service done. read more

Love Tracy. She's the best. She listens. Not many hairdresser do. They tend to do what "they" feel we want. The shop is nicely decorated and restful. It's nice to be able to get the quite time I feel I deserve when I'm doing some thing for me. One can get their nails, pedi and hair done all in one shop. A great place to go and spend an afternoon of peace. read more
