Katie at Sea Ray Salon is HANDS DOWN THE BEST STYLIST I have EVER had the pleasure of working with…read more When I asked her how long she had been doing hair I was shocked to learn that she had just finished school, then much less surprised when she told me she had graduated at the top of her class AND received honors. As a self-proclaimed tomboy, I'm always nervous to work with a new stylist out of fear that I'm going to end up with a hard-to-maintain and style super complicated 'do. However, Katie styled my hair in a way that made me feel more feminine than ever without feeling like I was getting ready for prom. The cut and color both looked and felt so natural and I have never before felt so stylish and pretty! One thing that I TRULY appreciate about her is the fact that she LISTENS. I wear my hair in a ponytail every single day for work and too many stylists have ignored me when I said this. In the past I would too frequently end up with a cut so short that I had this tiny little ridiculous ponytail and hair falling all over the place (including in to my eyes). Katie cut my hair to the perfect length where it looked healthier and fuller but still left a great looking ponytail! (And on her first try, at that!) Most importantly (to me, anyway) is that Katie really took the time to teach me how to work with my hair and new 'do. I never used to spend a lot of time on it but now I look forward to going out so that I can work to replicate what she did when she styled it. With the explicit instructions that she gave me I'm getting better and better at it each time and still ALWAYS get compliments on how great it looks! Needless to say, I cannot recommend Katie highly enough and look forward to my next trip to Wilmington so that I can go back to her!!!

After receiving a recommendation, I visited Julie Branstetter and was not disappointed. It was great to have someone listen to what I wanted in a cut and color and suggest what works best for me, from a personality fit to the most flattering for my face shape. Julie is fantastic! She carefully colors, cuts, and styles my hair rather than rushing through it - every time. Julie has a great sense of style, is kind, witty, fun, incredibly talented, and gives the right professional advice. If you are looking for a great salon with a stylist offering a personal touch, see Julie at the very energetic Hair Studio of Leland.

"special" and she always makes them look great and not like I have toddler hands. I can't keep track of which set is my favorite from visit to visit because they are all awesome! I also had my first cut from Jentry semi-recently and she gave me EXACTLY what I wanted and needed. Super fresh cut, dead ends gone, and just the right amount of texture. This chick knows hair and what to do with it. Go see my girls here; you'll be glad you did!

Jentry's work speaks for itself, she is a master at color and works magic on course Asian hair. My hair always is silkier and fuller bodied after a cut and blow out. Please see my review from Rockin Roller Salon for reference... Pros -extended hours by appointment (like early, late, weekends, whatever! I work really odd hours and she has made it work for me) -edgy fun styles -super cute decor

And I myself am one of them. I visited her in the very first salon she ever worked in and I have followed her over the years. Whether a simple trim, a bold new cut or a special event style, Courtney has been my go-to for all of my hair and hair care needs. She knows her craft and she knows it well. She is the type of person that takes time to listen and learn exactly what you are looking for. She is great at knowing what will work for you, and what styles to avoid. She also knows hair care products (old and new) and has always been so great at answering any questions that I have and suggesting products that target my specific needs. She keeps up with the latest trends, but can also give you that classic cut. Men or women, she can make you look fabulous. And if you have children, she is really great with them too. My three year old actually asks to go see miss Courtney and get her hair cut. She is just that good!! I really can't say enough good things about her.
