Came here not so much from the good reviews on Facebook, but because the place looked stylish. It's the kind of open, renovated old space that I like, in the old KM building. They weren't on Yelp yet, but Hey, that's what being a true Yelper is, right? I made my appointment on Schedulicity which is a plus for me. I hate calling to make appointments. Online is much preferred. I went with Phil because his availability was what worked for my shcedule. Sad to say, I've never had a guy cut my hair. He specializes in short hair. I was going from down to my butt hair to something shorter. I didn't go really short, but what he came up with I really like. I've gotten lots of compliments! Phil was personable, professional, and had this great stance as he was cutting my hair, as if I was a canvas and he was painting. I'll be back. I really liked my experience :-) read more

Vanessa did a great job braiding my hair, I love it! Will definitely be back in the future. read more

Evolve Hair Studio - French braids - Hair Salons Near Me - Kalispell, Montana

See Kelsee at this location. It's a great spot. The decor is modern and cool. Space is well utilized. Kelsee's booth is all it needs to be. She's a very busy lady and you can book online to see her which is really cool. You may need to check back often to see if there are openings or maybe book a couple months ahead of time. She's fast, thorough and professional. Everything you want in a great stylist. Look forward to coming back again and again. read more

After a not-so-great experience, took a chance on Vanessa, owner at Evolve salon in Kalispell. Not only did she give me exactly the haircut I described, but she quickly assessed my hair type and helped me confirm the cut was a good decision for me. Vanessa was very personable and created very fun conversations WITH me, not just talking AT me. We need to feel comfortable with the stylist and if they give us a great cut, icing on the cake! I felt very at home in her salon setting and other stylists were also very friendly to me. I have found my home salon and it is a relief to stop fretting that I will not find a good fit. I highly recommend the salon in general and Vanessa in particular, although she said all staff are just as accommodating and personable. read more

I've been going to Evolve since Vanessa opened the salon years ago. They are all very friendly and professional and I always get a beautiful cut and color. The atmosphere is amazing and my 20 year old daughter even loves it!! read more

I just moved to Kalispell and ended up choosing Evolve because of their good reviews and I am so happy I made that decision! Vanessa was amazing, easy to talk to and did a great job with my hair! The ambiance of the salon was awesome and I will definitely be coming back!! read more

New to Kalispell, found this salon and have had great experiences for a year now. Vanessa has helped me go from a super short hair style to one with a little more sass! When she needed to have a short medical leave, her team stepped up and I got great service in the interim. read more

I'm so glad I went in and saw Phil! He is most definitely a short hair specialist. He was able to take my hair from 'okay' to exactly what I was asking for and more. Thank you!! read more

Love love love this place! Kelsee always does a fantastic job on my hair. She loves what she does and it shows. She's super busy for a reason! I've tried other salons in the area and this is by far the only one where you'll get what you need done quickly but without sacrificing quality and without the harsh chemical smell other salons have. Plus, a fun atmosphere with beautiful artwork and a great location in a historic building..what more could you ask for? read more

Can't speak to the actual cut... but called this morning to get an appointment and was told they had a same day in 10 minutes. I told them we were coming from Whitefish and it would take at least 20, they said that would be fine. We drove out just for the cut and were told they could no longer take us. There was only one person cutting a haircut at the time and two stylists hanging around. Interesting business model, wouldn't recommend. read more

It's hard to find a good hair stylist when you're traveling, so I was delighted to see high marks on Yelp for Phil Dennison at Evolve Salon in Kalispell! I have short silver-grey hair (I'm a grandma) and Yelp reviews highlighted Phil's skill styling short hair. Also, Evolve is located across from the Kalispell Library so my husband could read and relax as he waited for me to get my hair cut. After 2 months of growth, my hair felt quite long (for me) but Phil calmly trimmed and shaped it so I looked like "myself" again when he was done! He's easy to chat with, knows his craft and made my hair look great. I will return when I'm back in the area visiting family (every month or so). Also, the salon is comfy, has "hip western" decor, and is easy to find. Highly recommended! read more

Phil is awesome! I recently had a couple of REALLY bad hair cuts (kind of traumatic, actually) and feared going back to another stylist. He took my crappy, very short and not much to work with hair and made it comfy again. I can't wait to see how my hair will look over the next year, now that I finally found a great stylist. He definitely knows his craft, listened extremely well and is very easy going. Thank you for making me feel much better! read more

I received the worst haircut in my life from this place. The stylist yanked on my hair and cut off 3 more inches than I asked for. I would avoid this place. read more

Great choice for upkeep! I can whole heartedly recommend Annie, but from what I've observed every 5 wk, any and all of the stylists are terrific. Go let them make you gorgeous. read more

I love this salon so much! I drive all the way from Missoula to get my hair done by Vanessa. The salon is located in a really cool historic building downtown. The decor is modern and fun and always clean. I love that I can book my appointments easily online. Vanessa has done my hair for around 20 years now and always does an amazing job. All of the the staff is always friendly and you just get the feeling that they love being there as much as I do. I highly recommend this salon to anyone. I just love it! read more

Walked in last week after walking by for a couple of months. Met Valerie, the owner, who recommended I make an appointment with Phil for a couple of days later. Super happy with the cut and the care that he took with me and my hair. Really appreciated the time I spent there. The salon itself is a fun and funky space - comfortable and Montana. Will definitely go back! read more

This place has a very cozy vibe and Phil ROCKS! Best haircut, style and color I've ever had. I highly recommend Evolve Hair Studio.

Phil's been cutting my hair for 3 years now and I think Evolve and Phil are great. The Salon is comfortable doesn't smell like overwhelming chemicals like so many places. read more
