Rachel is hands-down the BEST extension specialist I’ve ever been to. From the installation to the color, its always done perfectly, and I’ve never been happier with my extensions. She’s also incredibly easy to talk to, which is helpful for the longer appointments. Am loving her product line, too! 10/10 recommend!

Five Stars!!!!!

10/2021

Rachel at Bold City Hair is the best! I went to her wanting to try a different type of hair extension and she took the time to explain each type and the healthiest option for my hair. She is so knowledgeable and passionate. She truly listened to what I was wanting with color, hair and style and exceeded all expectations! The quality of her hair is top notch and she absolutely nailed what I was wanting. I am so glad I found Rachel. She is literally a hair artist and I won’t go to anyone else. I highly recommend her.

Rachel is truly an artist!

I’ve tried different types of extensions in the pursuit of the long hair I can’t have naturally. I came to Rachel after finding her on Google and seeing the great reviews. I can see why! Her transformation on my hair is amazing! The quality of the extensions is the best I’ve ever seen and the color matching my real hair to the extensions is seamless!! I also love that she took her time to make sure to address any questions I had. I was not rushed, she didn’t try to fit in other people while color was processing , etc. Great experience!!

The Best!!

4/1/20

Let me just say that this was one of the best salon experiences I have ever had! From beginning to end was a true delight. I had hand tied extensions and color done and it turned out amazing. Rachel is so knowledgeable and took such good care of my hair and the scalp massage I received while she was washing my hair wasn’t bad either !! My hair looks fabulous and healthy. This is the beginning of a beautiful relationship.

New Biggest Fan!!!

2/28/20

I have gone thru several stylists/colorists over the last few years and have been left with severely damaged, brittle hair.  I have tried several different types of extensions in order to help save my hair,  I’ve even tried several different extension professionals.  my experience with Rachel was above and beyond.  When I met with her for my consult,  I briefly showed her a few pinterest pics that I liked and explained what my goals were for my natural hair as well as the extensions.  She immediately had a vision and superceded anything I expected.  She put in new extensions,  blended and corrected my color, as well as started to repair my existing hair issues.  Not only did she give me amazing hair again, but we actually had great conversation and had fun while she worked on me. I am so very happy and will be Rachel’s new biggest fan!

AMAZING!!!

I’ve gone to Rachel two times now and each time I leave feeling AMAZING. I have wanted a deep auburn color for some years now, but wasn’t sure I could trust just any stylist considering I have more ethnic hair. After the first session I was concerned my hair would turn orange when fading, but it ended up a light rose gold sort of color that I LOVED. This past appointment she really toned and highlighted with an amazing red and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. I also suffer from dandruff from time to time because of how often I heat treat my hair. She recommended a product that is supposed to get rid of the problem as opposed to masking it. As soon as she put it on my scalp I felt a relief that I have not felt from any other product. She has great tips for hair products as well as an excellence for leaving you feeling beautiful with silky smooth hair. Definitely recommend her!

Rachel Yancey is an absolutely fantastic hair stylist. Her skill, energy, and sense of professionalism know no bounds. As someone with a busy schedule, I appreciate the extent to which she goes to accommodate her clients. She can always find room to fit me in, and never rushes me while I’m in her chair. It always feels as though I have her total attention, and her commitment to the smallest detail really shows. In fact, I have never had the pleasure of visiting a stylist who was more skilled or possessed a higher level of proficiency in the entire Jacksonville, FL area. Rachel truly is that good.
Every time I find myself in her chair, the conversation flows so easily that it feels like visiting an old friend. I have never seen a request that she could not complete while exceeding expectations – she is excellent at tackling requests for special hair types, unique styles, or custom designs. In my line of work, it is important to have your hair looking perfect every time you leave the salon – and I can always count on Rachel for perfection. I offer my unreserved recommendation, but really the only way to truly understand is to experience it first-hand. Book a session today. You’ll be glad you did.
