I went to E A Wells with damaged hair and a cut I wasn't happy with - a couple of years of applying a darker color to bleached hair that wouldn't accept it. Melissa patiently listened to my "history" and made recommendations based on not just what she saw, but what I said worked and didn't work in the past. I left with the darker (closer to my natural color) color I wanted and a cut that was more my style. She is efficient, but did not make me feel rushed. I will be back!

Such a wonderful salon! I had been to another salon and had a bad experience so I came to see Michelle for a color correction. She did such a phenomenal job with what she had to work with and I was anxious to see what she could create once my hair healed a bit. I like to leave the artistic liberties to the stylist and she did techniques that I had never had and completely changed my look to something that works so well for my face and my lifestyle. So thankful to have come across Michelle and will never stray away! read more

Update: I just saw the owner's reply so I want to address it. 1- yes I did book and did pay for FULL color. 2-- My daughter booked a part up /part down with curls service for $30. she was never told anything about braids being more or even an option. Then mid-service she was asked if she wanted a braid. Well of course! If you're going to upsell, tell the customer there is an additional charge so they can make an informed decision about their purchase. She was not told. Personally, I think $12 for that little braid is ridiculous, but at least she would have known. And the photos document the lack of curls, so I really don't know how you deny that. And I have additional pics of the piece that hung in her face. Yes, you reached out to me after the issue with my daughter. (not after the color issue. I tried to reach someone multiple times about the color and no go.) You called me twice I believe. I missed the first. The second call I either answered or called you back I don't remember but you immediately lit into me about leaving you a bad review. You literally argued with me about my experience when you weren't even involved in either service. WOW. Not the way to win back a client! I've worked with all types of businesses for YEARS helping them with their marketing and I tell them repeatedly, You will have upset clients, it Will happen. An upset customer is your opportunity to create a win/win! How you handle it will bring you a hater or a client for life! because even if you disagree the age old saying that the customer is always right is an age old saying for a reason. Meaning invalidating their experience will get you nowhere and in fact will damage your business. If you were my client I would have advised you to go the extra mile to make a happy customer who will sing your praises. One such person is worth 100 reviews! Suck it up a little. LISTEN, validate, apologize and then say, wow I understand how that made you feel and we really value our clients so I want to make this right for you. Then you offer to make it up with a free service, or whatever (not something like 10% off which is meaningless and an insult) then you make sure that service goes well (use the time to really give them special treatment) and after that you will have someone singing your praises for years and referring all of their friends. I remember that after you yelled at me and I convinced you to calm down I told you I needed to go but I'd be happy to meet with you or chat again later. I was going to give you some free marketing consulting, but you never called me back. I wish you well. read more

I absolutely love getting my hair done by Kalei! She does an amazing job! The salon is very relaxing and fun

Great service I came in for a haircut only and had been highlighted too light from another salon. Melissa was going out of town after my appt but knowing I wanted some correction she wouldn't leave me like that. She took extra time and low lighted my hair, added in layers and it was perfect. She never disappoints!!! read more

Since moving here from Chicago this salon has been a breath of fresh air for me! Unfortunately for Melissa, I like to change my hair often, but she is always up to the task. And of course I also feel she is a dear friend as she and her team always have a good word to share. So glad she has been able to stay open during COVID - all due to her business brilliance and support of her team and family. I would definitely recommend trying this business! read more

After living in Raleigh for three years, I have finally found a hair salon that exceeds my expectations. I made an appointment with Caitlin, who took her time and made sure she knew what I had in mind. I felt very at ease and confident in her skills. The salon itself is beautifully decorated and clean. The staff is very welcoming and accommodating. You can tell they are down to earth people who are genuinely happy to be there. Every single person I crossed paths with from start to finish (receptionist, stylists, owner) had a smile on their face. Little things go a long way! The talent is apparent and the prices are reasonable. I will definitely be sharing my positive experience with others. I look forward to supporting this establishment for years to come. Thank you for ending my search for the perfect hair salon! read more

I got tape in extensions by Toshia today and I love them!! We did 18-22 inches on the length. The color match was perfect. Would 10/10 recommend making an appointment with her today!! read more

Love this salon. Abby does beautiful work. Everyone treats you like royalty. A regular client and have been one for over a year

A truly great salon with everyone taking a very personal interest, an invested interest, to make certain your visit is 100%! I also was curious to understand why the Salon is listed with three $ signs when the are so very inexpensive! They are truly an incredible money saver on top of everything else! You can't go wrong! read more

I had a lovely time at E A wells. The ambience was nice, it was quiet and we were spaced out for covid, which was good. I felt comfortable. The people were friendly and kind. I loved my stylist- she was really sweet and fun to talk to and she did a great job! read more

Nobody is perfect, we all have bad days, so I hv a three chance policy, after which you either strike out or it's a hit. Moved from Chicago in 2014 & and the only stylist I found here that I liked was way too far; I was back in the market. I'm not high maintenance, but I want to like my hair when I leave a salon. My hair had been crying for help for months, so after work one day, on impulse I just found a Groupon for cut & style in the area and called for an opening. EA Wells had a same day appointment so I took it & prayed for the best. I was assigned to Caitlin, she was super sweet. I very broadly gave her an idea of what I wanted hoping she was "professional enough" to read my mind!! ... I don't know how she figured it out, but it was EXACTLY what I wanted! I LOVED it! Set my second appt, that same day. Six weeks later, I left the salon smiling again, so set my third & determining appt. Six weeks later today, I once again leave the salon feeling relaxed, pampered, and LOVING my hair! Caitlin is my homerun. I'm so glad I found this salon & Caitlin. Everyone is super friendly, down to earth & accommodating, and I'm just so happy & pleased to call myself their client. read more

I love this salon! Everyone is so friendly and the place is very inviting and relaxing. The scalp massage with shampoo is the best!Melissa, the owner, always knows just what to do with my fine hair and I've never been disappointed. Give them a try for yourself read more

I have been going to EA Wells for a few years now. Laurie Linney is a true professional and an artist. She listens to what you're wanting to accomplish and makes it happen. If you walk in and you know you want a change, but you're not quite sure, Laurie will use her creative talent and experience to ensure a style that you'll absolutely love. The Salon itself is very relaxing and clean. The receptionist is always friendly. If you're considering changing stylists/salons choose EA Wells and ask for Laurie. I promise that you will not be disappointed. read more

I really enjoyed my experience at EA Wells. I had bought a groupon and was able to get in to see a stylist fairly quickly (usually you have to wait a long time with groupons bc spots fill up). I used what I had on my groupon plus added some low lights. Pretty shop and great customer service! read more

I can't say enough wonderful things about EA Wells stylist Abbey Walton. I just moved to North Carolina from Chicago, and was worried about putting my hair into unfamiliar hands. She is incredibly talented for such a young stylist: phenomenal at foils, personable, perceptive, and professional. I couldn't be more thrilled with the outcome! The salon environment is calm and clean, and the other stylists seem professional and on point as well. You really can't go wrong in this salon! read more

Horrible horrible experience! Rude, stand offish, depressing environment and overall just terrible service. My hair cut was beyond a disaster and felt too embarrassed to even go to my event. The fact this "business owner" reply's in such a witty way reflects the over all environment of the entire "salon". read more

If you're looking for a polished salon with a great atmosphere, well-known hair products, and decently hospitable staff, then this isn't your place. Basically a glorified Great Clips with luxury salon prices. I followed my long-time stylist here and was VERY happy when she decided to leave. I also would appreciate being removed off of their email list. $30 off our next 3 appointments isn't going to bring any of Katie's clients back. read more

Great experience. First and foremost, Shelby is a wonderful salon manager. From answering the phone to setting appointment and meeting in person, very caring and customer focused. Loving my haircut and color from Caitlin. Even the owner is present in the salon and very hands on. Highly recommend! read more
