Amy is a great stylist. Customer service oriented knew exactly how to style my hair going by for a color. Thank so much.

The vibe of the salon is super welcoming and the staff is very friendly. This was my first time trying out this salon and I asked for a haircut with lots of face framing layers (this is the same haircut i normally get). Personally i would not recommend coming here if u want layers. I'm not sure if the stylist i got just wasnt comfortable doing layers but they came out very choppy. It's definitely not the worst haircut ever it's just not great so i wouldn't go back to the same lady. The blow out she gave me was also not very good, it left my hair tangled and i had some pieces that were just sticking out weird after. Overall it's a nice salon and well priced ($48 for women's wash and cut) but i would not recommend if you want a layered haircut or a blow out. read more

Genuinely scarred from getting my hair done ever again after my experience here. Throughout the 8 hours I spent there my hair got absolutely fried, turned purple, then turned copper. It got to a point where I started to cry because I was terrified for my hair health and couldn't even look in the mirror. THANKFULLY Charmaine came to through and literally saved my hair! She is amazing and so nice!! I also find it absolutely crazy that everyone expressed how sorry they were about my experience EXCEPT for Lili, who was the cause of this mess. Other than her, everyone at the salon was very apologetic and comforting throughout this experience. I never write reviews, but I felt like i would be doing a disservice if I didn't warn y'all about this! Save your hair and don't go to Lili read more

I used them for make up and hair for grad photos and it was amazing. All the women there are super cool and great at what they do! They helped give me the memories that I wanted and the photos they helped me get ready for will last a lifetime. read more

My daughter was in town for the military ball and we had booked an appt with Becca online. Upon our arrival at the salon we found out that there had been some issue in which our appt and another girl's appt were combined into one. The staff worked quickly to find a solution even though it was clear everyone was very busy. My daughter was taken back in minutes and one person started prepping her until a different stylist, Candice, took over and finished. My daughter was thrilled with her hair and the overall experience was very positive! read more

I got my hair done today with Hayley W. and she was awesome! I was super nervous to go to someone new since I'm not from the area, and she made me feel so comfortable! I love my new hair (definite confidence boost)!! I would recommend to everyone. My only regret was not trying CharMarie Salon out sooner! Also, it said on the door that the business is owned by a Radford alum - just another reason to support! read more

The New River Valley is lucky to have a salon like CharMarie. I wish there were more stars to give! Balayage? Mermaid hair? Pixie cut? The Jennifer Aniston? The ladies at CharMarie will deliver. They are always on top of the latest trends and can execute any style or color you want. Just check out their Facebook page for inspiration! I would recommend any of the amazing stylists (Melinda!!), but have been a very happy client of Charmaine's for many years. She's not only a hair genius, she's fun to talk to while you're in her chair. She listens to what you want and offers awesome suggestions. I have never, ever been unhappy with my cut or color. I get my hair done about every five weeks and find the prices are very reasonable. But I also know the styles I like to try can be pricey! :) Seriously, you will not be disappointed here. Make an appointment and say hi to Bryan for me! read more

CharMarie Salon - Base color retouch and balayage over previous bright color for a rose gold tone. Hair by Charmaine. - Hair Salons Near Me - Blacksburg, Virginia

I've been coming to CharMarie since the salon first opened and have always had an amazing experience. The staff are always friendly, kind, and professional and the salon itself is beautiful and comfortable. That being said, I had the absolute best experience ever at my last appointment with Becca. I came in for a color touch-up and left with beautiful, almost magical hair. It's like she could see the color that was in my mind that I've never been able to vocalize and made it reality. Thank you, Becca!!!! read more

I asked for 3 inches off and long layers in the back. The stylist - Amy, rushed my cut and cut a chunk out of my front section on my right side and then immediately said "let's curl your hair" to cover it up LOL ... she didn't even try to fix it. You can see how horrible and uneven it is: read more

Worst haircut I ever had in my life. Stylist was inexperienced and admitted fault, but proceeded to charge me the full amount anyways. I will never return to this place! read more

Amy, you are fantastic! I visited today on a whim to get a routine hair cut and I haven't very naturally curly hair so I was a bit nervous to go just because naturally curly hair can be really hard to cut and I have not had good experiences with hair cuts in the past. However, Amy was amazing!! She took the time to listen to what I want, made suggestions based on what would look best for my hair the way I normally wear it, and explained every step of what she was doing to my hair. She also has a great personality and sense of humor. My visit today makes me want to come back and get color done with her just to see the full extent of what she can do! read more

I don't know what it was about this place, but the experience was just ok for me. I was in and out of the salon in about 30 minutes and didn't feel that the quality of my cut (just a basic trim) was worth the $44 spent. It seems like this salon is for the locals, everyone seemed to know each other. My stylist Candice only asked me questions about the style I wanted. I don't need my stylist to talk to me the whole time but it was awkward to me and I felt like just another person. I don't know if I would recommend this place to my friends, and I might try it again with another stylist in the future. read more

Who would think you would find such a great salon in Christiansburg! After moving to Blacksburg from Florida I was so discouraged after trying a couple Of other salons. Then I found Amy Kinsley at CharMarie and finally had great color and style again. Everyone at the salon is friendly and Amy is a real talent! read more

Saved my hair!! I got an awful hair cut at a different salon and this place made it work, they saw me that day and save my hair!! ! I can not thank them enough! My hair styler was the sweetest person and did an incredible job! Would give her more stars if I could! Shout out to Kelsey Brown! read more

I have lived in the NRV my whole life and have had my fair share of terrible haircuts and bad hair salon experiences. Needles to say, I was very skeptical and nervous to try yet another new hair salon. I read about a million reviews on CharMarie and finally booked a haircut and partial balayage with Candice. I left there feeling better than I did coming in and my hair looked awesome! Candice did an amazing job at listening to what I wanted, suggesting different options and helping me achieve the look I wanted. I was silently judging her and the other stylist on their performance and work ethic as any true skeptic would; and I have to say, they all blew me away. Everyone was friendly, energetic and so complimentary. The moral there is wonderful and I would definitely recommend this salon to anyone! Best in the NRV! read more

CharMarie Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - Blacksburg, Virginia

From start to finish, CharMarie Salon was a win experience for me. I had been getting my hair cut by the same lady back in my hometown for my entire life (I think my mom has been going to her for 25 years or something crazy). Even throughout my schooling at Virginia Tech, I would wait until I visited home to get my hair cut by her. Well now that I am a permanent resident of Blacksburg, I figured I should find a place here I can go to. I decided to try out CharMarie Salon as it is really close to where I live and has positive reviews. Their online booking is super easy and straight forward so I decided to make an appointment. When I arrived, I noticed the salon was very cute and clean. The lady at the desk was nice and I think I waited maximum 5 minutes for my stylist. My hair stylist, Allie Perkins was absolutely the sweetest. As I had never been here before, I did not know who to make an appointment with so I went with the first one that popped up on the booking list. Since I had been going to the same lady for my whole life and knew her pretty well, I did not know what to expect from a new hair stylist, but she made me feel so welcome and at home. She was really easy to talk to in general and listened to how I wanted my hair cut and made suggestions as well based on the type of hair I have. If I wanted an area cut shorter or a certain way, she was very happy to do it for me and did not make me feel like I was being picky or annoying (which from reading a ton of salon reviews of a bunch of different places, can happen). I wanted to go from my longer than shoulder length hair to a pixie cut, so this was a huge change for me, and Allie made it so relaxing and was super encouraging. I love my new super short hair and I will be going back to Allie when I need a touch up or trim. After reading more about all the stylists at CharMarie after the fact, I was surprised to read that Allie was more in to styling and special occasion hair. She did such a tremendous job cutting my hair, I wouldn't have guessed! I almost wish I had my long hair back just to see what she could do with it! Haha. Overall, CharMarie Salon was a wonderful experience and I will definitely go back. read more

I love this place! Went today for my first appointment and I love my results! Amy is an absolute sweetheart who really cares about your happiness and experience! Can't wait to go back. read more

I had a great time at this salon for a great price. I never know exactly what I want to do with my hair and I always appreciate a stylist who isn't afraid to tell me what looks good and what won't. Unfortunately I just didn't walk out with that I want to show off my hair look, that I always look forward to after the salon. read more

My stylist at Charmarie Salon is Charmaine, and she is an incredible, amazingly talented stylist. She is always professional, takes the time to discuss the hair cut/style/color that you want and will always let you know if what you are requesting is possible (which it usually is because she knows hair trends, the latest cutting techniques, etc., which is evidenced by her work, and other stylist's work, on the salon Facebook and Instagram accounts). I have been going to her since before she put in the hard work to open her own salon and am so proud of the final product. The salon is always clean, her staff are friendly and inviting, and it feels like you are going to a spa to treat yourself every time you walk in. Do yourself a favor and go to this salon- by far the best in the area!! read more

Amy is my stylist and she is the best! My hair was stripped and I was experiencing some hair loss from the change in water and a medical reason. She rehabbed my hair and it is now healthy and the moderate hair loss in now within the normal range. It is healthy and shiny, which really helps with confidence. read more
