View from the hair wash stations, looking out at the back patio area. Very calming.

Quaint sitting area at Illuminate.
Beautiful accent pieces and mirrors are clean, crisp, and match the lovely wallpaper.

My experience at Illuminate each time with my hair stylist, Chelsey... perfection! She is a treasure, and has so much knowledge of how to best care for your hair!I love the decor in this hair studio too. It is in the heart of Old Town Clovis, and it honestly gives the feel like you are parking in a neighborhood and being graciously welcomed into someone's lovely home! I trust Chelsey 100% to care for my hair and continually help it to evolve. Starting originally with very dark naturally & box dyed hair, & mismatched lengths from older hairstyles, I told Chelsey my vision of what I'd love- soo happy to share that after seeing her for awhile, I now have flowy, light brown/blond hair with much brighter money piece strands framing my face! On different appointments, I enjoy services from her including root touch-ups, toner, deep conditioning, blonding, haircuts, and styles. Seriously, I feel so amazing after I leave her chair each time! As far as Illuniminate as a whole....getting back to the decor- simple, clean, chic, and so comfortable! There is a very cute sitting area, but honestly I don't hang out in there because I never wait for her, she is professional, punctual, explains processes, and works with you to truly give you the style experience that you want. Definitely check out Illuminate, and especially, in my opinion, an extremely talented & kind hair stylist, Chelsey!

Myself new to Fresno, I needed a new hair stylist quickly, Chelsea is PERFECT!!!Illuminate Hair Studio & Spa was the perfect find in Old Town Clovis, such a charming location. I have long, fine, blonde color hair with gray roots, and she fixed me right up. Chelsea, also corrected the dark color under neath my neck. I'm so very Grateful that Chelsea is now my new hair stylist!

Melonie did my hair and it is exactly what I wanted. She did a very light trim and listened to what my vision for my hair is. I definitely recommend her! The shop is beautiful too.

This review is with Lisa. Lisa has been my stylist for the past few years. She's very experienced and gives recommendations on how to care for your hair. She's patient, friendly, kind and goes above and beyond to make sure you're happy with your cut and/or color. She takes her time and it always feels like therapy when I go and see her! She's amazing!!!

Jamie has been doing my hair for years. She has always been professional and courteous. My hair is very temperamental and my blonde is hard to process. I HIGHLY recommend her for blonde HOWEVER - blonde is a delicate process and can take many appointments to perfect it. SHE WILL (as any hairdresser should) explain that process to you. Your hair does not change from dark to light in one sitting and not feel a little damaged - common sense people. Katherine also does my spray tanning at this salon and she is always professional and has done any amazing job getting my skin to look tan and natural with out any weird orange glow! I recommend her always to everyone I meet! The salon is nice and clean and the location is GREAT. All the hair professionals here are always polite and nice when you enter which is great for everyone's business. I would recommend anyone in here!

The location is great, nearby and environment is very comfortable. The interior is fresh and stylish. I just happen to be there earlier then scheduled and just enjoyed the scenery in the back.It's difficult finding a stylist who can do pin up updos! Stephanie was able to take me in in such short notice (2 days prior). Her rates are reasonable like everywhere else. She's on time and doesn't rush. She'll redo if needed. She is such a sweet person and easy to get along with.Two days after, I also got a haircut and I love it!Thank you Stephanie! I appreciate all that you've done and for your time! And Thank you to illuminate as well!

Meh... saw Jaime for a haircut. Cut wasn't really much of anything. Bangs were snipped straight across, not even blended with the rest of my hair. They weren't even sectioned off properly from when I have been cutting them improperly on my own. She didn't style my hair or anything. May as well have gone to Supercuts. Jaime was polite and friendly, the salon is nice.

Best cut and color ever by Lisa! She is the sweetest and really takes her time to explain and teach you how to care for your hair afterwards. She is very knowledgeable and very experienced. Everyone who's ever had her touch their hair is pleased and raves about their experience. Thanks for a wonderful experience Lisa!

Chelsea at Illuminate in Clovis is a sweet kind hair stylist that listens to her clients in getting exactly the look they want! She is an expert on blonde hair color and highlights and understands the importance of using the best products to keep her client's hair healthy! I was there 3 hours for a full set of highlights and it seemed liked 60 minutes! I love my color and style! I would recommend Chelsea- you will not be disappointed!!! PS The salon is very clean, decorated nicely and there is ample parking!!

Amazing!!! Vanessa is the sweetest ever! Did an amazing job with my hair, worked me through the process and made sure I was comfortable. I came in with a disaster for hair and she made it beautiful again while also helping me figure out better products to help me always. I most definitely recommended coming here for anything you are wanting. The building is beautiful and the interior is inviting. Best experience ever and I will definitely be coming back!
