Passion Salon in Fremont, CA

Beware of add-on pricing. Blowout was to be $15...bill was $40. They added on hairspray $10, flat iron $20, etc. without asking me and without telling me it cost extra! I went for highlights. Was to be $150. They added on low lights $80, keratin $30?, and hairspray $10...all without asking me! Final bill was $320!! Be very clear if they do something if it costs extra. Even AFTER I say, blowout ONLY!, no flat iron, no hairspray, no serum...somehow they always add on something else that costs money. I've been going here for 10 years...why? because it's close to my house and they do nails, hair, and waxing. Otherwise, if I have more time, I go to Sasam Salon across the street (Joe at Sasam doesn't burn my scalp nor tug my hair). And last time I went, they flat ironed my hair, which I DIDN'T ask for and they burned my forehead for a treatment I DIDN'T want! Depending on who you get, your hair will be pulled, your ears burned. They don't sanitize their brushes. I forgave all this due to their cheap prices but with all the non-approved extras, it's not saving me any money. I should give them 1 star but considering I still go here when I'm desperate, gave them two.

My wife, daughter and myself have been regulars at Passion Salon for over 8 years. Our go to stylist is Anna. Anna is very attentive to our needs and the quality of her work is top notch. Jesse, the owner is friendly and cares about her customers. We will keep coming back here.

One of the worse mens hair cuts can be found here if you are interested in the same. They just are ready for the next one in the line and dont care about the job on hand

Very very unhappy when they (Anna, to be exact) charged me twice as much than other customer! She colored my 3" long hair with some gray. When it was done, it was bi-color. The gray area turned into red and the dark color area get darker. She knew it herself that the result was bad and offered me to do correction. I accepted the offer and the end result was ok. I was happy at first thinking they care about their customer and the end result, until she charged me. She charged me double! I also saw the other customer with much much longer hair paid half of what I had to pay. I asked her why she is charging me double and she said that's how much I paid before. I know exactly how much I paid before. When I get home, I confirmed with my friendhow much she had to pay for her hair (which is 3 times longer), she paid only half of what I had to pay today. So, whoever is reading this review, always confirm the price before you go in. I am never, ever going back there again. Be ware of the lady name Anna. She is very tricky.

Got an appointment right away w Carly. Looking for new nail person as mine retired after 40 years. On referral went here. Another of negative reviews but I trust my friends referral. Salon not luxurious. But cozy. I didn't sense any negative vibes, and asked for a basic pedicure. Carly was attentive to my cuticles and my preference of how I wanted my nails cut. I was very pleased and may have an upgraded pedi next time. I watched two men, one young adult and an older gentleman get hair cuts. Ladies were very thorough and these guys looked great ( one hadn't had a cut since before COVID). Hair mopped up right away. Noticed foot baths were very clean and inserts were used. Good experience. Don't pay attention to naysaying reviews.
