Meet Cat Barco: Owner and Extension Specialist

I'm Cat Barco, the owner of Studio One Hair Design, and I'm thrilled to welcome you. With nearly three decades of experience behind the chair in Fresno, California, I’ve dedicated my career to helping women across the Central Valley feel confident, beautiful, and effortlessly put together. My passion lies in creating natural-looking, custom-blended beaded row extensions and dimensional color that not only transform your look but also support the health of your hair. It's never just about the hairstyle for me – it's about helping you step into the best version of yourself and giving you back precious time in your busy life. We also offer additional service, which you can find here.

‍

As a mom of three (now an empty nester!), I connect with so many of my guests on a deeper level. Like you, I’ve spent years juggling family, work, and personal goals while still wanting to feel polished and confident. That shared experience is at the heart of what I do: providing low-maintenance, high-impact solutions that make you feel like the best version of yourself without spending hours in the salon.

‍

Building Trust and Exceeding Expectations

Trust has always been the foundation of my work. My clients know they can rely on me to give them honest, realistic advice paired with the skill to deliver results that exceed expectations. What makes me different is the way I approach extensions – not as an add-on, but as a seamless, natural enhancement to your hair – and my ongoing commitment to education, both for myself and the stylists I mentor. Staying at the forefront of new techniques and trends ensures that every guest receives the very best of what the industry has to offer.

‍

Life Beyond the Salon

Beyond the salon, I’m someone who has lived a full life that my guests often relate to. Years of traveling for competitive sports with my kids taught me how to balance schedules, hotel rooms, and sideline snacks like a pro. These days, I’m happiest with a creamy protein coffee in hand – or, in the summer, a green tea lemonade with matcha – usually while listening to a podcast or audiobook. And when I really need to recharge, my husband and I escape to Las Vegas. It’s our reset button: a place where we catch up on sleep, enjoy amazing food, share a few drinks, and try our luck at roulette.

‍

Your Experience at Studio One

At Studio One, every detail of your visit is designed to make you feel welcomed, cared for, and celebrated. From the moment you sit in my chair, you’ll know you’re in the hands of someone who sees both your vision and your reality – and knows how to bring them together. My commitment is to provide exceptional service in a professional yet warm environment, with techniques and products chosen to give you your strongest, healthiest, most beautiful hair.

‍

Let’s make your dream hair a reality. I invite you to join the Pretty Hair Club and experience the difference for yourself – right here in Fresno, at the heart of the Central Valley.

Hope Sanchez: Texture Expert and Hair Replacement Specialist

Hello Everyone! I am Hope Sanchez. With over a decade in the hair industry, I’ve built my career on passion, creativity, and a love for making people feel confident and beautiful. My goal is to create a welcoming space where every client feels pampered and valued.

‍

Specializing in Texture and Hair Replacement

I specialize in hair texture and hair replacement services (wigs) as well as cuts, colors & perms!

‍

I stay ahead of the latest trends in perming and texture, offering both transformative services and educational classes for my fellow stylists and barbers looking to expand their skills.

‍

Life Outside the Salon

Outside the salon, I’m a wife and mother of three children, balancing my career with family life. When I’m not behind the chair, you can find me lost in a good book (romance, horror, and thrillers) or binge-watching my favorite shows, all while sipping on some coffee. My work is more than just hair—it’s about connection, self-care, and helping clients embrace their unique beauty.

‍

Whether you’re looking for a fresh color, a stunning perm, or just a relaxing escape (iced coffee included!), I’m here to bring your hair goals to life.

‍

Let’s create something beautiful together and I welcome you to my chair! 💜

Makayla Davila: Co-Stylist and Budding Extension Artist

Hi, I’m Makayla Davila! I’m a hairstylist who loves helping people feel confident and beautiful. I’m diving into the world of extensions and color, and I’m always excited to learn new things and grow in my craft.

‍

A Passion for Learning and Growing

When I’m not behind the chair, you’ll usually find me staying active—whether it’s playing pickleball, exploring the coast, or spending quality time with my family. I also love the creative side of life, from sewing and thrifting unique finds to playing board games and traveling to new places.

‍

My goal is to provide each client with a welcoming, professional experience while continuing to grow in my craft. I’m excited to keep learning, stay inspired, and help you achieve the strong, healthy, beautiful hair you’ve always wanted.

Carina Lopez: Dedicated to Making You Feel Beautiful

Hello! My name is Carina Lopez, and I was born and raised in Madera, California. I am proud to serve the 559 community.

‍

Understanding the Importance of Self-Care

As the oldest of five daughters, I understand the importance of feeling beautiful, relaxed, and pampered. That’s why I’ve dedicated myself to creating an experience that helps my clients feel their best.

‍

I chose Studio One as my professional home because it provides a comfortable and welcoming space for both myself as an artist and for my guests. My goal is to ensure that every client leaves feeling beautiful, confident, and ready to take on anything.

‍

Expertise in Color, Cuts, and Extensions

I have been a hairstylist for three years and graduated from Paul Mitchell, one of the top beauty schools. I took my education seriously because I knew this was my passion and what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. I continued my education beyond school and assisted the owner of Studio One, where I refined my skills and perfected my craft. My specialties include color, cuts, and extensions.

‍

Life Outside the Salon

When I’m not in the salon, you can often find me at the gym, spending time with my family, or enjoying the beach. I take pride in working on myself both inside and out every day.

Amber Kehoe: Bringing Decades of Experience to Fresno

Hi, I’m Amber!

‍

A Passion Rekindled

I’ve been doing hair for over 20 years, and I still get so much joy from helping people feel their best. My foundation started with Vidal Sassoon training, which taught me the importance of precision and technique—but what I love most is creating styles that fit my guests’ personalities and lifestyles.

‍

Embracing a New Chapter

Outside of the salon, I’m a proud mom of three (plus two amazing bonus kids!) and I love staying active with workouts that keep me energized. Recently, I made the move to Fresno to start a new chapter, and I’m so excited to bring my experience to the Central Valley.

‍

I can’t wait to welcome you into my chair here at Studio One and help you fall in love with your hair again.
