I've gone to so many hairdressers because I've needed to move every few years while building a…read morecareer. I'm anxious to find the right stylist for true personal service on each move. After receiving a recommendation, I visited Julie Branstetter and was not disappointed. It was great to have someone listen to what I wanted in a cut and color and suggest what works best for me, from a personality fit to the most flattering for my face shape. Julie is fantastic! She carefully colors, cuts, and styles my hair rather than rushing through it - every time. Julie has a great sense of style, is kind, witty, fun, incredibly talented, and gives the right professional advice. If you are looking for a great salon with a stylist offering a personal touch, see Julie at the very energetic Hair Studio of Leland.

Katie at Sea Ray Salon is HANDS DOWN THE BEST STYLIST I have EVER had the pleasure of working with…read more When I asked her how long she had been doing hair I was shocked to learn that she had just finished school, then much less surprised when she told me she had graduated at the top of her class AND received honors. As a self-proclaimed tomboy, I'm always nervous to work with a new stylist out of fear that I'm going to end up with a hard-to-maintain and style super complicated 'do. However, Katie styled my hair in a way that made me feel more feminine than ever without feeling like I was getting ready for prom. The cut and color both looked and felt so natural and I have never before felt so stylish and pretty! One thing that I TRULY appreciate about her is the fact that she LISTENS. I wear my hair in a ponytail every single day for work and too many stylists have ignored me when I said this. In the past I would too frequently end up with a cut so short that I had this tiny little ridiculous ponytail and hair falling all over the place (including in to my eyes). Katie cut my hair to the perfect length where it looked healthier and fuller but still left a great looking ponytail! (And on her first try, at that!) Most importantly (to me, anyway) is that Katie really took the time to teach me how to work with my hair and new 'do. I never used to spend a lot of time on it but now I look forward to going out so that I can work to replicate what she did when she styled it. With the explicit instructions that she gave me I'm getting better and better at it each time and still ALWAYS get compliments on how great it looks! Needless to say, I cannot recommend Katie highly enough and look forward to my next trip to Wilmington so that I can go back to her!!!

Rachel is a rare Fine Hair Wizard. These wizards are very difficult to find in this world. It took…read moreme over 50 years to find her. If you are lucky enough to find a rare hair wizard like this, you never go to another hair person. The woman knows how to make my hair look good. I asked for "the extreme Karen Bob," and that's exactly what I got but she made it look good. In your head it doesn't look good but when Rachel's doing it in real life, she makes it look good in real life. Rachel is a genius. She's really good at color too. Next time she's gonna perm my hair. Stay tuned!

If I could give Sean Clay ZERO stars, I would. He is the rudest, most unprofessional…read morecolorist/stylist I have ever encountered in my life (and I've been to many expensive ones in Beverly Hills and Hollywood). I asked him politely (via text message) to please add a few more highlights and a toner to my hair, as one side looked different (lots more highlights and very yellow/brassy) than the other side (it was so noticeable that even my son's babysitter asked me about it). In response, he tells me that I looked like a disaster when I came to him (which was extremely rude and not even true). Then he tells me that his first appointment isn't for another six weeks. I politely responded that I was simply requesting a minimal correction, which was common courtesy in his profession. He responded by saying "good bye" and "you're blocked"!?! He also left me a scathing (and insane) voice message while I was feeding my toddler. I tried calling him back but he wouldn't respond. I'm honestly in shock right now. This man is in his 50s and claims to have been doing hair for decades. How he thinks he can treat people this way and still have clients is unfathomable to me. Oh, and he charged me $200 (would only accept cash) to do my hair at his house (which reaks of tobacco smoke) for this hair disaster that I'm going to have to pay someone else to fix for me. Do yourself a favor and AVOID THIS MAN AT ALL COSTS!!! (I've posted the text messages to prove what an insane jerk this guy is.)

Filled with plants and good music, their team is skilled and knowledgeable on their vegan and holistic practices. I have been seeing Lauren for about 6 months and she is wonderful! Their prices are reasonable and they have a variety of appointments so you are paying for what you need. With several types of treatments for your haircut, they focus on overall hair health starting from the scalp to the end.  After you fall in love with their products, there is the option to buy them from their own line, Aware. With 3% of sales donated to animal rescue efforts, it's hard to not buy something every time! However, their products are concentrated so they last forever. When you do finally finish them, save the bottles! They offer refills at a discount.  They offer facials and a few other practices as well. I love this place and their message; I recommend it to everyone. All the stylists specialize in slightly different skills, so be sure to read up on them to find your right fit on cuts or color.
