I knew I needed it cut. It was down to my hips when I woke up yesterday, but I was very apprehensive about losing so much length. The woman who worked with me, I think her name was Jasmine, was a sweetie that had me laughing the whole time. I felt very comfortable trusting her with a very loosely formed idea for my hair. It is a little shorter than I thought I was going to get, but honestly, I absolutely love it. I love the colour. I had a nice time getting to chat with her while she worked. The music playing through the speakers was a fun blend of mid/late 90s pop-rock that took me back. The chairs were comfy. Everyone was very nice. We had an appointment, and there was no waiting.

She was attentive to my wants and executed them flawlessly. 2. She was running behind but still somehow had me in and out within the hour so I could get home and get back to work. 3. She consistently checked in with me to make sure I was comfortable. The entire experience was amazing and I'll keep coming back.

The cuts and style were beyond the realm of "you get what you pay for", they should have been free. I needed to find a real studio and stopped into Hair Designer Studios. I was a walk-in and the owner, Lori, was available. I finally got a haircut from a real pro and it was great. When I needed to get the purple dye out of my hair she was very careful to bleach it and on the second round of bleach she added some darker blonde tones so it wasn't so stark white. It came out beautiful and hair was still healthy so I could dye it back to my own color after a week. I have seen Lori ever since and I'm always happy with the results. I'm contacting her to put my hair back to purple as soon as possible. I recommend Hair Designer Studios.

The staffing is great, the salon is extremely clean and it's in a great location just passed White Oak Shopping center.

I originally discovered K Elizabeth Salon via Groupon. I was looking for a good salon that would…read moredo full highlights and a cut (nothing crazy), but I always check reviews before buying a Groupon deal or making an appointment. K Elizabeth had great reviews that made me decide to give it a try. Although they don't offer online scheduling, they are very flexible and made scheduling easy. It is a quaint salon off St. Mary's Street in downtown Raleigh. There is parking behind and a little on the street (if you are lucky). About 3 weeks prior to my appointment, I got silly and colored my hair with Clairol Color Crave Semi-Permanent in Scarlet; let's just say my hair was RED. This stuff lasts 15+ washes; there's an understatement. After weeks of washing, my hair was a faded red/orange ugliness. I work from home, so not too many people thought it was CRAZY. I walked in and promptly apologized to Maddie for the condition of my hair. She was concerned that highlights, etc. might damage it due to the WONKY color, but she accepted the challenge. She spent a lot of time figuring out the best way to get rid of or remove/reduce the red. After working her magic, my hair just had minimal hints of red, and looked AWESOME! I was VERY impressed with Maddie and the team at K Elizabeth. They are all very friendly, and I could have spent more time watching them interact and just have fun.

I've been here twice with Ally - once for a fashion color (periwinkle blue) and cut and another to…read moreturn my blonde color back to a chocolate brown / copper tone. Ally did an amazing job each time - I sent over a picture of inspiration and she was able to absolutely nail it! When I got the blue halo color done, Karen mixed some take-home ColorCraft, which was super helpful so that I could refresh the color whenever it faded. This salon definitely knows what their doing when it comes to color - I've never had a better experience with getting exactly what I ask for at a salon! You do have to park on the street, but generally you can find parking no problem, and I do recommend calling well in advance for an appointment (especially if you're doing color), since they book up pretty fast. Price is pretty affordable as well and the entire team are sweethearts!

She delivered on everything I asked for and was very clear in the questions she asked to determine my final look. I didn't realize there was a bar inside until I got there and would consider booking an appointment with a friend or even bringing my spouse along next time. Pricing was on par with what I am used to spending on a cut and color. Thanks for the perfect chop I needed for the summer!

Horrible experience. My hairstylist was 30min late to our appointment. Then I had to wait another…read more30min for her to figure out how to renew her license on her phone because the inspector was in the building. We had no discussion about cost or any kind of consult. She began working on my hair and told me we'd be done in a couple of hours. Well, she ran over her time by 1.5 hours and my husband and I missed our appointment that we had planned afterwards. He showed up and waited patiently because she said we'd be done soon. SMH! Because she ran over her estimated time, she began to rush through my treatment. She decided not to wash my treatment out which was fine until I got home and all I smelled throughout the night was horrible chemicals. I wanted to vomit because the smell was so strong and awful. And when it was time to pay. The fee I was expecting to pay was from what I saw listed on her website. What I was being charged was an extra $60 in addition to what was listed. She claimed I had a lot of hair and needed more product; I've had this treatment performed several times before at other salons and they never charge me extra. At the beginning of the appointment she said the special shampoo and conditioner I was being sent home with was included in the price, so I thought oh that's great. But afterwards she said the price increase was because of the special products she had to send me with. There was no fine print on her website that broke down any possible price increases, and the details listed said the shampoo and conditioner were included in the cost, so why am I having to pay extra for them? Why didn't she have a proper consult at the beginning of the hair appt? Is it because you were 1 hour late to begin? Plus having to hear gossip and poking fun about the other stylists in the salon was rude and uncomfortable. So incredibly unprofessional. Never again.

She is very knowledgeable with color, and knows what will and won't look good on your head. She's given my limp, straight hair volume and life. I've also had several appointments with Kendra and she is wonderful as well. She knows what you're wanting from a hair cut and style even if you don't. I've given her free rein with my hair and am never disappointed. I will gladly commute from North Raleigh every 6-8 weeks to Clayton just for these two women.

She puts so much love and attention into the cut and makes me feel like a million bucks. I barely even have to brush it. Bed head is something wonderful and glorious, after Ashley has been in your hair. Flawless. I have had short hair a few times over the past 20 years. I am always a little reluctant, because long hair is sexy and becoming. HOWEVER, I have come to one great realization: when your hair is short, it gives someone the perfect opportunity to kiss the back of your neck.

I checked the website and got the correct number and called and no one picked up. So I decided to walk into the salon today, since this place is within walking distance of where I live. No one greeted me initially for a couple minutes. I knew it was a small chance that I was going to get an appointment today, but asked. Instead of saying no and offering other time slots I was told they are by appointment only and to check down the road at the other salons. For a location that is not on the main part of downtown and charges $55 for a hair cut, I assumed you would get excellent service. I only decided to wrote this in hopes the owner will correct the problem as I would love this area to continue growing. Everybody is busy, but a service salon is only as good as its service.
