I love this place. I visited Alison twice and plan to go back again. There's parking and back. The pricing is reasonable, and the women working in the salon are very friendly. read more

I've been twice and booked Alison, she's amazing! I have curly hair and she knows exactly how to cut and style curls and bangs. Both times I've been extremely happy with my cut and style. Thanks Alison! read more

We are a military family which means that each time we move, I've got to find a new hair salon. Shortly after moving to Newport, I read up on reviews and decided to leave it to chance by sending an email to the salons that sounded the best and seeing who responded first. Lucky me, Curl UP and Dye was the first to respond and after answering a few questions, the receptionist decided to schedule a consult for me with the owner, Jill who has worked in and owned salons in Newport for 30+ years. During our consult, I showed Jill some potential highlight and color options I was considering. She looked through everything, asked some questions, and then very sincerely told me that she could do anything I wanted but that my current hair color was very flattering on me. After about a week of contemplation, I decided to take her professional opinion (an opinion that was very educated and clearly honest, given that she wouldn't make any money from me NOT coloring my hair) and decided to just get a cut. THIS WAS THE BEST CUT I'VE HAD IN MY 51 YEARS OF LIFE (I don't think I realized how subpar my previous cuts have been)!!! I just showed her a photo and she make it happen. I'm only in Newport for a year, and will be sad to say goodbye to this salon. read more

I really liked the atmosphere, location and staff. My hesitation on going back was the website listed prices different than what I was charged. I booked a style appointment where I came in with washed and dryer hair that shows $30 on the website but was charged $65. Still great service but I wish the website was updated appropriately because I wouldn't have knowinly paid that much for someone to just curl my hair. read more

Curl Up And Dye Salon - One of the two nice waiting areas, this salon. La Houte Couture - Hair Salons Near Me - Newport, Rhode Island

It's been years since I last stepped foot in a salon, and it showed. I have been struggling with hair loss which had finally reached the point of no return. My doctor advised me to find a good stylist to mitigate the damage. I was at a loss as to where to go, and chose to take a chance and book an appointment at Curl Up & Dye, based in part on the good reviews I'd read, as well as how welcoming it always looked when I passed by. The salon is gorgeous, bright, and welcoming. The staff of talented people working here shine just as brightly, and are they ever hard working! This place is all about creating customized magic especially for YOU, whilst at a bustling pace. Somehow they manage to do so while also balancing the needs and desires of several clients at a time, with an air of calm and tranquility. The place hums with magic. It runs like a well oiled machine. The staff functions like an ensemble cast at a top theatrical production. They work together and facilitate one another, while also artfully creating, individually. I arrived with numerous ideas, and Jill helped me to choose a style that was fun and sophisticated, with just a hint of irreverence. She quickly assessed my damaged tresses and deftly went to work, using both scissors and razor to dry-cut a stunning asymmetrical bob with great curl and movement. She accentuated my natural colors of bronze and silver, with a deep accent of rich violet, taking the cut to the next level. "Sassy" is the word three unsolicited people have used to describe it. It was nothing short of transformative, for me. Throughout my appointment, I was well looked after, offered tea, coffee, or water while my color developed, and treated with gracious care. The products they recommend and use in the salon smell insanely good, and deliver on curl, hold, and shine. Jill creates hair that falls into place with little coaxing or fuss. A few simple steps to wash and wear hair, that still feels fun and a little glamorous. The whole experience was uplifting, and exactly what the doctor ordered. Jill and Curl Up & Dye are a local treasure. I'm elated to have found them! read more

I was desperately in need of a post-COVID hair cut and needed to try a new salon. I was booked with Marissa and after seeing her impressive work on Instagram, I had high hopes. Those hopes were exceeded! Marissa is the best stylist I have ever been to. She is friendly, professional, and the whole time gave advice on what would be best for my hair and why she was cutting it or styling it a certain way. I have a ton of very fine hair and most stylists I have been to complain how difficult my hair is to work with. Marissa wasn't intimidated, in fact she complemented how full it is which made me feel really good. I now have a very cute cut and style and can't wait to return. Additionally, all COVID protocols were followed and the salon felt very safe. read more

Went here recently for a change in hairstyle as I'm having a baby soon and wanted something short and low-maintenance. I live close enough to the salon to walk to and came highly recommended. Meghan (sp?) was the one handling my haircut and was constantly making sure it was cut at the right length and I was happy with it. She was even sweet enough to offer a fix if I wasn't happy with it after a few days; it usually takes that much time for me to get used to a new look but I really liked it and didn't feel the need to fix anything. Price wise, it was a bit more than what I usually pay for a haircut, but I was happy and Meghan was really sweet so it really didn't bother me that much. I've also had some waxing done here and was happy with the service too. Waxing here was much cheaper here than where I usually went AND not far from my house! Just an FYI, the waxing person (can't remember her name at the moment) is cash only so be sure to stop by the ATM beforehand. I'll definitely be back! read more

WOW Nicole McNamara is SO TALENTED!!! And an absolute sweet heart. I booked an appointment for a cut, blow dry, and style for a photo shoot and Nicole went above and beyond to absolutely kill it!

I was VERY nervous trying out this new salon. I've been going to the same stylist for 15 years but moved and needed to find a new place and im so happy I finally have ! Jill (the owner) did an amazing job with my low lights and highlights ! I've already made my next appointment for December. Thank you Jill!! read more

Had a lash tint. 35 for a 15 minute treatment on a bed in the middle of a back walkway. Exterior door opening and closing feet away. Cold air rushes in. My heart is still pounding from laying there while the technician breathed six inches from my face for ten minutes, had a phone conversation and other conversations with people walking through heavy-footed. I am not a nervous person but it is not at all relaxing (and actually totally unnerving) having eyes closed while all this is happening around. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere there is a private room with a technician who gives you space while you wait for the dye to take. read more

Absolutely love this salon. I have been getting my eyelashes done by Arielle for a few years now. She has never failed to make me feel beautiful. She has been consistent with her hard work and effort with each client. Arielle was recommended to me by several people in town. She started becoming very popular within Aquidneck Island. It seemed like everybody I knew had their lashes done by Arielle, and never did I hear one complaint about her. Arielle is talented, kind and welcoming. She ensures a comfortable and fun environment during every lash appointment. I look forward to my lash sessions every week! HIGHLY recommend seeing Arielle. She has been incredible since day one. She is also very flexible with scheduling which has helped me with my busy schedule. Because of Arielle, i have become so obsessed with lashes! She has adjusted the style of lashes to my liking and puts her best efforts into every lash appointment. Thank you Arielle!! read more

See all

Such a beautiful location and my stylist was the sweetest. I picked this place on yelp to just get it styled and curled for a wedding & it was just about everything I could imagine! read more

Great spot! Kristin is the best. The name drew me in but the service kept me coming back! My hair always looks slick

In one of the below reviews, it says that Marissa is a secret hidden gem and I absolutely agree. She is extremely talented and knows what she is doing from hair to makeup, and I had full confidence that I was in good hands right off the bat. I came in for a wedding, this was my first time in Newport, and I was so so happy with the salon, the staff who was extremely welcoming and my hair and makeup! I would highly recommend it! read more

Marissa Prosser is a f*cking hair wizard. I recently had my color done by another stylist that did not deliver what I asked for, so I called Curl up and Dye on a whim, and I'm incredibly thankful that I did. Marissa came in to the appointment with the best energy, attitude, and attention to detail. If you're thinking of going to someone else, you're nuts. Unbeknownst to her, she is stuck with me because I have found my forever hair stylist. read more

I went to Curl Up and Dye while in town for a family wedding and all I can say is what a great place! I had my hair and makeup done beautifully. I don't wear much makeup usually so I was worried articulating I thought I wanted. I worried for no reason! My makeup came out perfect and lasted all day. My hair also came out beautiful and was exactly what I was looking for. If you have an occasion to get prettied up while in Newport, definitely try this salon! read more

Kristen was an absolute dream! Visiting from San Diego, CA and my hair was in desperate need of a blowout. They were able to get me in within 45 minutes and she did exactly what I asked for. Plus she was such a doll. Thank you Kristen! read more

I have nothing but good things to say about Curl Up & Dye. I've had two great experiences here. Dan gave me a great haircut and style, and even advised me on color for a future appointment. He was super nice, talkative, and knows what he's doing behind the scissors. Megan is amazing. I made an appointment with her to get my hair bleached and toned silver. This process is daunting, and is rarely achieved in one session; however, we were determined. She bleached my hair and all would have gone perfectly had it not been for a combination of lingering fashion color and well water that had I been in unknowingly showering in (I live in Europe). Essentially, half of my hair bleached perfectly, while the other half was a nightmarish green. Megan recommended a few color options, since we couldn't get my dream silver. We chose to dye it dark as this would be the healthiest route for my hair. Megan was completely cool and professional under pressure and made me feel better about the situation. TL;DR - she turned something horrific into something beautiful and healthy. I used to live in Los Angeles, where you pay an arm and a leg for a haircut and color. Coming to Curl Up & Dye, a place where price is reasonable and the stylists are talented, is a breath of fresh air. Looking forward to seeing the crew here again soon, and trying silver attempt #2 with Megan. read more

I have been seeing Kristen for years and she's amazing! Always listens and has great vision and ideas. She is well worth the hour long drive it takes to get to my appointments.

I was there yesterday with Nay, I love what she did with my hair, I just love it. I been going for two years now and yesterday was my first time sense covid-19, I feel very safe and happy with my hair. read more

It's fun! I love all the workers there. They usually do a good job. However, it can get EXTREMELY pricy VERY fast. It's like a gamble. Would reccomend though. read more

This is the best place in the world to get your hair done! I don't trust anyone else to put their mitts near my hair! Jill, the owner, has been doing my hair for years. I also had a haircut with Jessica once and I was very pleased! The stylists in the salon are all stylish and know what's in and what's out. To be honest, I would trust any of them to do my hair. You will not leave disappointed! read more

I called to make an appointment for a cut and wash even though I don't go to new establishments and they were able to accommodate a food time for me. I walked in and was instantly impressed with the new location and friendly staff. I was paired up with Dan Carlin and I can't be more happy! He cut my pixie hairstyle just the way I like it and even convinced me to go lighter blonde and be bold an I'm so happy that I did. I was also very impressed with the staff and how they help each other as a team! I will be back with Dan for a long time! read more

I came in for a cut, color, and highlight. I was assigned Kristen as my stylist. I have naturally really dark brown hair, almost black, and it had gotten pretty long so I wanted a good chunk of it cut off, about 4"-6", and dyed lighter brown with very subtle highlights. (I am in the military so dramatic highlights are normally frowned upon). Never in my time getting my hair dyed have I had to do a bleach wash but Kristen was insistent that it was the only way to get any color in my hair. It was extremely pungent and I could just feel my hair dying a slow death as she washed my hair with bleach. She then proceeded with the color and highlight. I specifically told her that I only wanted the highlights 2 shades lighter than the all over color. The highlights turned out to be very dramatic blonde, about 10 shades lighter than I specified. The cut is the only thing she did right and thus the second star. But now I have to find another salon to fix the color so that I don't show up to my command out of uniform regulations. Another note, the salon itself and the other stylists were quite unprofessional. One stylist kept going around asking if anyone has seen her money because she left it in her bra and it fell out somewhere. They are all independent contractors so each person could quote you a different price for services. My total came out to $160 which isn't a bad price had it come out right but now I have to go spend another $100 getting it fixed. I would not recommend this salon to anyone I know nor would I ever return. read more

I've spent over a year searching for the perfect cut and color after a hair salon nightmare. Then some women at work recommended Curl Up and Dye Salon. When I called, they were so polite and accommodating!! I ended up having highlights and cut done by Kristen and she was absolutely wonderful! She was patient with my inability to describe exactly what I was looking for, but seemed to understand anyways. I have never been so happy with a hair cut! It's been over a week now and I'm still loving everything about it! I have found my hair salon home! Thank you Kristen!! read more

I've been trying (w various stylists) to get my hair from boring blond, to silver. Kelsey NAILED IT. She's always super flexible w my weird schedule, and the price is awesome. This is definitely a locals place and everyone tends to know each other but don't let that stop you! Jump right in, everyone is very nice! Also, every time I'm there, someone is getting eyelash extensions which look AMAZING! Thank you Kelsey! read more

Dan has been my stylist for the last 5 years, I love what he does with my hair so much that I'm daring enough to tell him to do whatever he wants as long as I can still put it up... I'm never disappointed. My 17 yr old daughter has the THICKEST head of hair you've ever seen & Jill is the only one she trusts to handle it And we are Portuguese & Italian so you know we have some eyebrows. Jen is an artist when it comes to brow shaping... Love the feel here love the staff!! There is a reason it's one of the top salons in Newport!! read more

Besides having the greatest name ever for a salon, this place is also a badass joint. imagine Kat Von D had a switched the tatto gun for some scissors. red vinyl chairs, a cow skin lounger and a black chandelier and just some of things that make this place stand out. if you want to do something crazy with your hair, or just get a new look, hit this place up. Everyone is really friendly, so dont be intimidated. I'm not sure, but i think tattoo's might get you a discount, but dont quote me on that read more

I reached out to Megan in desperate need of someone to fix a really bad highlight! From the minute I walked into the salon I felt welcome and comfortable! I sat down and Megan listened to what I wanted and got to work! I was a little nervous, but Megan was very personable and I had a great conversation with her! She was very knowledgeable and honest that my hair was going to be a process since it was so badly messed up. I honestly couldn't be happier with the final product!! She was able to fix my blonde hair and make me feel like myself again!! If you are looking for someone who is good with blondes she is your gal!! read more

Before I started coming to curl up I went to Regis. Let me just say that they were way over priced for a mens cut!!! 33 dollars for a trim! Curl up is amazing I will only go here from now on to get my hair cut! The price is very reasonable! Everyone that works there is super friendly! Meghan cuts and washes my hair and does an amazing job, it's like she knows what I want before I say anything! I work a lot and Ashley always has time to squeeze me in for an appointment on short notice! She's amazing!!!! read more

Love Curl Up and Dye! First off, the name is perfect, second, I had a really nice experience getting my first post-quarantine cut here. I scheduled with my stylist and arrived just about 5 minutes early. They have a bench outside with their sandwich board and a note that asks you to wait outside and your stylist will come and get you when they're ready. Masks required for clients and all staff were wearing masks and 6 feet apart. They sprayed down the surfaces and chairs before and after I had touched them, sanitizer by the door, etc. Oh, and did I mention that my fresh little pixie looks chic and good as new? Fantastic service! read more

I have been going to the salon for 16 years now. The owner Jill does an amazing job, and everyone that works there too.
