I have been going to this hair salon for over three years. My hairs stylist is Alison. She is…read moreabsolutely wonderful. I have never had an issue with appointments, never cancels and I never have to wait for her to finish with a different client. She is punctual. She is talented. She has an eye for color and cut. I have an insane amount of hair and it's not easy to cut it since it's not curly nor straight. I have a funky wave to it. Grows very fast. I have been going to Allison every 4 weeks. Her pricing is par with her work, and I love how honest she has been with the pricing but also with what my hair needs.

And she's one of the best stylists I've ever had, if not the best. She does an amazing job with cut and color every single appointment. She's also a lovely, kind, and fun person. And she doesn't push products on me, which I really appreciate. She's also very affordable. I highly recommend her to anyone.

I had been seeing Panduh for vivid/fantasy hair color and was willing to overlook early red flags…read more-- until my third visit went so poorly, I was left with severely banded color, no resolution, and ultimately dropped as a client after voicing my concerns. A quick rewind: My first appointment resulted in chunky, uneven highlights around my face instead of a well-blended money piece. The second time, it blended better -- but the color wasn't applied close enough to my scalp, leaving a visible blond halo. I chalked it up to a learning curve and gave her a third shot. Her salon setup doesn't help: it's dimly lit, with black walls and a single window behind the chair -- great for her to see your hair, but you're completely backlit in the mirror, meaning you can't clearly see the results until you're in normal lighting. (In hindsight, that feels intentional.) At this last appointment, I came in with faded pink and brown roots, expecting a simple root bleach and color refresh. Instead, I left with a huge band of lighter pink across the middle of my head and a harsh transition to darker pink below. I didn't see it until I got home and looked in a properly lit mirror. When I texted photos and asked if she could fix it, she admitted she saw the banding -- but refused to fix it. Her excuse? That the appointment was too short and I "needed seven hours instead of five." Worth noting: I never book my own time. I always call and have her team schedule me, since they know my hair length and needs. She then pivoted, saying I don't come in "regularly enough" for my "color goals" (something she'd never mentioned before). I told her I would've adjusted my visits if that expectation had been communicated. Again, she refused to make it right -- and then fired me as a client. For reference: I was a $700-per-visit client. If this is how she treats someone investing that much, I can't imagine the experience for anyone spending less. If you still choose to go: pay with a solid credit card. Thankfully, mine sided with me and issued a full refund after seeing the photos and text thread. _____________________ Edited to add, in response to the salon's reply (8.12.25): To clarify a few things mentioned, for additional transparency: Again, I booked by phone every time so your team could allot enough time for my long, vivid-treated hair. I never used the online system. I never asked for any clients to be moved around. I never chose the length of my service. The first appointment was not fully corrected -- just a darker overlay added to blend the harsh bleach, which faded. I didn't push the issue and was never offered or given a refund, ever. Nor did I reach out about the issues with my second appointment; I fixed it myself. The lighting in the salon makes it very difficult to assess the results before leaving -- whether one black wall or not, the fact of the matter is Panduh's space is dim and backlit. I communicated calmly and respectfully, shared photos, and simply asked for the banding to be fixed. You acknowledged it and declined. Then dropped me as a client. If you're going to respond, please include the full context. I am.

Another amazing haircut and rest for my spirit. I saw Esther this time and I was very impressed-…read morenot just by her skills as a stylist, but also with her warmth and ease. Do you know how some bartenders and hairstylist double as professional best friends and pseudo -therapists? Even if your schedules busy and getting your hair cut is kind of a pain... these are the people that make you look forward to that errand because it will really feel more like you've just taken a break in your day to chat with your bestie. Well, that's Esther, all the way! All of the staff is incredibly friendly and the vibe of the Salon is super homey. The owner Panduh is super generous and is clearly invested in the Queer & Trans community. I feel lucky to have found them, and hope to see them whenever I'm in Durham. Super bummed I'll be on the road too much to get my hair cut there every time.

Eric Michaels is an awesome hairstylist! I moved to this area in 2022 and after trying two other…read moreplaces that were very disappointing I booked an appointment with Eric. When I arrived we talked about what I wanted done. He was not only a very good listener but very pleasant to talk with. He made me feel comfortable with ease and assured me he'd fix what I referred to as "this mess." While he highlighted my hair we stuck up a lively banter with others in the salon. It was a very cozy charming place and I felt welcomed. After giving me the best shampoo I ever got he got to cutting. We agreed on the length first and as soon as he started blowing it dry I knew the highlights were perfect and the cut was awesome!! I knew I'd found the right place and the right hairstylist. I walked in feeling like my hair was a mop of dried out straw and I walked out feeling like a million bucks! When I got home instead of my husband's usual it looks nice babe -- he said "WOW!!"

Rachel takes her time with each appointment making sure she gets to know exactly what I'm looking for by chatting with me in the chair before she gets started, washing my hair in the best vegan and low-scent products (I'm sensitive to scents!), cutting my hair wet, blowing it out, and then cutting it dry and thinning it out since I have so much hair. My haircuts last so long that I can typically wait a few months between visits (but I'd like to see her more frequently if time would allow!) Her skills with color are also unmatched. And best of all, she's just a sweet person and a joy to be around!
