I come from a large city and I found Jenny at Higher Ground ten years ago and I will be forever client. She makes the entire experience so professional and wonderful. I always walk out looking like a million bucks. I have long blonde hair and before I met Jenny the coloring was starting to damage my hair. My hair is in the best shape ever. Jenny concentrated on delivering exactly what you want while maintaining the integrity of your hair. I also love love the privacy of her boutique. I don't personally like these salons that are over crowded and people everywhere talking and gawking. She has a large area that is private and beautifully decorated and it's super relaxing. I cannot say enough about her ability to give hair new life! She is a master colorist and her experience shows every time I walk out of her salon and my hair has never looked better and it's so healthy!! read more

Jenny is an amazing stylist and a color genius. I showed her a photo of the color I dreamed of, and she created it without issue. She is up on the latest technology, chemistry, and cuts for all hair types. I recently had a baby and lost a lot of hair. The new hair growth, or short 'baby hair', makes coloring a significant challenge. Jenny did not have issues foiling any portion of my hair. Jenny's experience ranges from renowned salons in major cities to smaller boutiques in the suburbs. With this background, she can talk comfortably to anyone; and she can offer consulting services typically only found in metropolitan areas. Her salon is comfortable, fun, and stylish - like her personality. I love Jenny, as does my hair. read more

I was so relieved to find Jenny in Roanoke. I had just moved from Boston and had grown accustomed to the bigger salon market. Jenny's talent and experience is difficult to find in the local area, as she trained in some of the best salons in NYC and D.C. I have gone to Jenny for both highlights (full and partial) and cuts for about a year now. She does a beautiful job on my hair and has a deep and thorough understanding of hair and the products that she uses. She is also dedicated to customer service and strives to make her clients happy and comfortable--I've been absolutely spoiled by her and wouldn't see anyone else. She just moved into a new space that is incredibly chic--I highly recommend that you see her. read more

I am so glad to have found Jenny at HigherGroundHair! I love that it is private and you don't have a lot of people in there at the same time. She listened and took her time with me, and did what I had in mind. I really enjoyed meeting her and talking with her. I didn't feel like it was the first time I had met her! I had been going to another salon off Brambleton for about 16 or so years, and I never felt as welcome there as Jenny made me feel! I am so glad I made the decision to change. I would highly recommend Jenny. I made two other appointments with her when I left! SC Roanoke, VA read more

Jenny is awesome and so is her salon. I have been going to Jenny for over 6 years now and do not know what I (or my hair) would do with out her. You want a professional that delivers great results every single visit then Jenny is who you want to visit. I love her new place. It is very comfortable and inviting and creates a more peaceful and relaxed atmosphere without all of the noise of most salons. I just love it and would recommend anyone and everyone to go give her a visit. She really knows hair and she is irreplaceable. read more

I love everything about Higher ground hair. Jenny is amazing and knows what she is doing. She actually cares about your hair and gives a lot of advice when it comes to taking care of it. It's so serene and peaceful just like the owner. It was super relaxing and beautiful. My hair looks amazing. She offers a variety of options to quench your thirst and the added scalp massage was a delight. I will be returning. Prices are great compared to other salons in the area as well. Totally worth it. Go, you will not regret it. read more

I have been going to Roxanne for almost a year now and she never fails to wow me! I have such a hard time deciding how to cut and color my hair and her guidance is always extremely helpful. She has coloring down to a science and isn't afraid to tell me when I have an idea that she doesn't think will work for me. (that's an incredibly valuable asset in a hair stylist) I am forever thankful that I found her and would highly recommend her to anyone out there looking for a stylist or wanting to try something new. read more

We had the best experience with Leslie! She did a cut and color on my 15-year-old daughter, and it turned out absolutely amazing! She really listened to what my daughter wanted, explained everything clearly, and made her feel so comfortable and confident the whole time. The color is beautiful, the cut is perfect, and the finish looks so healthy and fresh. My daughter walked out smiling (and that's not always easy with a teen!) . We will 100% be back - highly recommend!!! read more

After searching the internet for "top rated" hairstylist in Roanoke, Jenny popped up and I couldn't be happier. My entire first hair appointment with her was delightful, relaxing and comfortable. My hair is gray, "stick straight" and shows every cut. I was appreciative when Jenny took time getting a feel for my hair and an understanding of my expectations. I am very pleased with my hair cut and am excited to see what other ideas she will have for future styles! read more

After going to a few salons when I moved to Roanoke (from New York) I wasn't thrilled with my hair. It was just okay. Then I found Jenny! What a difference. She is by far the best stylist in Roanoke. She is super talented, professional and I always walk out feeling good. Everything about the experience is awesome. I highly recommend Jenny if you want a great haircut or a style on a consistent basis. She always delivers! read more

I was looking for a hair stylist and read the reviews and chose Higher Ground as the best match for my needs. Jenny is wonderful! She talked to me to determine what I was looking for, my likes and dislikes. Then she looked at my hair to assess its condition and potential. We agreed on a style and it was just what I wanted.! I highly reccommend Higher Ground. read more

What a great experience! This was my first haircut since Covid shut things down over a year ago so my hair was a hot mess. Leslie did the most marvelous job of listening to me and giving me the exact haircut I wanted. I feel like myself again. Every one of the staff members was pleasant, polite and professional. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. read more

I am new to the area and found great reviews about Jenny on Yelp so I trusted them and went to Jenny yesterday for a haircut. I am so glad I did. I gave her basically what I wanted and she ran with it and gave my hair movement and it is so cute. I love it! I am so glad to have found her and a new hair stylist in Roanoke! read more

I went to Jenny based on other Yelp reviews and I was not disappointed! I received great hospitality and a wonderful haircut that left me feeling more like myself than I have in months. Coming off a less-than-satisfying visit to another salon I was thrilled with Higher Ground and will definitely be returning. read more

Jenny is absolutely amazing. I used to switch around to different hair stylists and colorists when I first moved to Roanoke a few years ago, but I haven't gone to anyone else in over three years. I don't trust anyone but her with my hair color (and I've had multiple colors done). She's fantastic. read more
