My stylist, Waverly, though is absolutely AMAZING. I went from my natural mousy brown color to now a beachy blonde color, but it looks so natural. She kills it every time and I constantly get compliments on my color ( even if I got my hair done 5 weeks prior and my roots are showing). She creates the color to match your skin tone, eyes, lifestyle, etc. I would HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend Waverly. She is the color expert! Ive been to a so many hair dressers through the years and she is by far the best. I've recommended her to a couple of my friends and they have come back raving on how wonderful she was. Not to mention, I LOVE the salon itself. It's a great place when you first walk in. All the receptionist are so welcoming and friendly and there is a cool, modern vibe inside. (Not to mention you're given copious amounts of wine) read more

Heather gives the best massages! She knows just how to manipulate and stretch your muscles to relax you. Don't let her small stature fool you! She is very strong and can give high pressure if you request it. I feel so relaxed! Will definitely be back. Highly recommend! read more

I, too, was the victim of a bad color job done elsewhere. . . A friend suggested I go to her hairstylist at SHINE to attempt a "fix." CHRISTINA totally delivered and then some! I was extremely pleased with the results and have decided she is officially now "my girl" . . . I just want back for my second appt last night. She is a master at color and cut! The only reason that I'm not giving four stars is the price (hey, a girl can dream, can't she?) but the prices are fair and you really do get what you pay for :-). read more

I made an appointment at Shine Salon after reading the rave reviews on Yelp. After speaking with the receptionist about the texture of my hair and what I wanted done, she recommended a stylist for me and I made an appointment. The salon is very clean. Everyone there was very nice and I was helped immediately after I walked in the door. They offered me a drink and I did not have to wait long. I came to my appointment wanting to get a cut and highlights. The stylist and I spoke in depth about the color I wanted, we looked at hair swatches and I even brought a picture. My hair is very dark brown and I wanted brown highlights just a few shades lighter than my natural color. I also wanted my highlights to look very natural and stressed that I wanted them blended. I felt like I could not have made it any more clear how I wanted my hair colored. After my hair was finished and styled, I saw that the color of my highlights did not turn out how we had discussed. They ended up having a reddish tone to them and were almost a copper color. I told the stylist that this was not the color we had discussed and that I did not think I liked it. She explained to me that she was trying to avoid using bleach on my hair and lightened it with hair color instead, which pulls a reddish tint on dark brown hair. She never discussed any of this with me during our consultation and if she had, I would have either decided not to get them or asked her to go ahead and use the bleach. My highlights also looked very streaky- they definitely were not natural-looking or blended. I expressed to the stylist that I was not happy with my hair. She told me to go home and look at my hair in natural light and sleep on it. She said she would call me the next morning and if I was still unhappy that I could come back and she would fix them. That was over a month ago and she never called me. I thought about calling her myself but she made me feel guilty about not liking my hair, even though it did NOT turn out the color of the picture or hair swatch, because she said it still looked good. As a side note, during my appointment the stylist had to leave me sitting in her chair with wet hair after my hair was washed. She had another appointment for an eyebrow wax while my color was setting, but no one had turned on the waxing pot so she was waiting for it to warm up. I had to wait about 10 minutes. This is normally something I would not have thought twice about but I guess it bothered me more than normal give my negative experience. I have been getting my hair highlighted for over 10 years and I have never left the salon feeling unhappy with how my hair turned out. This was a first. My hair not turning out the color I wanted is one thing. The stylist telling me she would call me and then never following up is what really made me feel like she could not have cared less whether I was happy with my hair. read more

Shine was the first salon I checked out since moving from Chicago, and I can safely say it will be the only salon as well! I was told their studio is brand new and you can definitely tell; it is gorgeous! From the moment I was greeted, everyone there was welcoming and friendly. My stylist, Hustin, was A M A Z E! He took my blonde balayage from meh to gorgeous! I would even let him make me full blonde, that's how much I have fallen in love with my color. The prices are up there, but I firmly believe you get what you pay for, and my hair is worth it. Client for life! read more

Make an appointment with Waverly!! She is a perfectionist beyond measure. In a world where there is a salon on every corner, the need for someone that goes above and beyond is a must. She is that!! In a salon with a homely store front, but will exceed your expectation in style and decor. Up to date music, great atmosphere, and warm friendly smiles make it a comfortable choice. Try out Shine!! You will fall in love. read more

Staff and Service is the best. Also love the product selection. My main salon, I drive from Raleigh, Love the whole experience.

Went to Shine yesterday for highlights on my seriously dark roots, and Charlton did such a great job!! I had been looking through the Yelp reviews and everyone seemed to rave about Shine, plus its 10 minutes from my apt, so it seemed like a win/win!! Charlton really took the time to talk to me and figure out what I wanted, how I wear my hair, what color would look best now and he promised he'd make my hair look gorgeous, he did!! I got full highlights, glaze, blow out and they charge a bit more for extra dye since I have crazy thick hair, and it was sooo reasonable. I already made a follow-up in 2 weeks to get a cut and I trust Charlton will do a great job with that as well. Oh also, he gave me all sorts of coupons to use for a future visit, very cool. Everyone I encountered in the salon was super friendly, really glad I gave this place a try! read more

I was lucky enough to get invited to Shine's Blow Dry 101 event by our awesome and fearless Yelp Community Manager (yay, Nicole!) and enjoyed it immensely. The salon was clean, trendy, and had a very cool vibe. Just a bit of a background story here - I have extremely curly hair. And in terms of styling it myself, I don't do more than towel dry, scrunch with some hair products, and maybe put it halfway up (or in a ponytail for the gym). Hence this 101 class on how to blow dry my hair straight was long overdue. On to my learning - they had three different people helping me at one point. No joke. I'm that skilled at drying my own hair. I was (nicely) mocked for still having the same hair dryer from college and for not owning a brush (that's right - I was still using a comb for my tresses). We all laughed about it and then they talked to me about which brushes I needed (that's right - plural as in more than one type) and that I should buy a new hair dryer. Lucky for me, they had just the one I needed on sale, so I grabbed that on the way out. Overall, my (three) helpers were very sweet and said I did a wonderful job since I have virtually no experience with drying my hair. They gave me a ton of tips and talked about which products would help make the process easier. All were very knowledgeable and friendly and did not make me feel like a complete idiot, which was a task for them, I'm sure. Now if I could just get the energy to attempt this at home every so often, it would probably become much easier. Time to unwrap my fancy new hair dryer.... read more

I chose this salon based on other yelp reviews (thank you). I called the salon and explained that I needed a haircut and that I have super short hair (I'm a female). The receptionist said they had a number of stylists that work with short hair and she paired me up with James. I was nervous going to my appointment but James was great. I showed him photos of what my hair looks like (normally) right after it is cut and he was patient and talked through it. He was conservative and stopped a few times to ask if it was going how I wanted it to. I couldn't have asked for a better first-time experience. And he did a phenomenal job. I will definitely be visiting James for my future haircuts. Prices are competitive to other salons. read more

Went to the blow dry 101 here and had a phenomenal time! I really think this may have been my favorite elite event to date! The Shine staff are the coolest ever- and just so friendly and approachable. Mark gave me that "cosmo-esque" look I was looking for and all through the night I received so many compliments! He gave me the confidence and tools to try the look myself.I look forward to making an appointment with him shortly - as I believe I found my new stylist (and his prices are super reasonable!) Drinks were fannnntastic ! They had some Vitamin water cocktails (mmm), yummy wine, cheese, crackers, and fruit. They were not skimpy and more than once did someone offer me a re-fill. The make-up experience with Jeffree Scott was helpful as well - He uses all natural make-up to give you a polished look while being eco-friendly. He offers make-up bag makeovers too! I tried out some of the awesome products in the swag bag (yea, the swag bag was swoon worthy) and I really enjoyed them so I'd love to meet with Jeffree again as long as I am prepared to part with my super-old favorite Clinique eye shadow (they discontinued that color ): ( ...as Jeffree said old make-up is akin to sleeping in an airport bathroom..yikes). Thanks Nicole, Shine Salon, Jeffree, and Vitamin Water for one of the best Friday nights I have had in a long time! read more

I'm a fan and MORE of this place. I needed a new place to get my hair did, because the whole "letting students do it" wasn't working out. I can't write this review without bragging on how great I looked so, please, just bear with me. My hair was pitiful on the ends, the wrong colors and very damaged. To fix it was going to require more processing, so I was scared. Well, James got a hold of me and we did my cut first. I loved it so much I almost cried. Yes, I'm serious. Even though we had to cut a couple of inches off, I still loved it! A week later we did my color. I had almost black base with large panels of bright red in it. I loved it, but it was time for a change. Despite the fact that we had to double process my hair to change the colors, I didn't come away feeling like I had straw for hair. In fact, my hair hasn't felt this soft and smooth in a year. My color is still dimensional, but warmer and, dare I say it.. prettier :) Go see Shine!! Just go! They listen, they're all sweet and professional, it's a great neighborhood, and they're prices aren't outrageous. Just GO! read more

I cannot say enough good things about my experience at Shine. I found it through Google by searching "Charlotte balayage" and I'm so glad I did! Hustin was my stylist and did an absolutely incredible job. I showed him pictures of what I wanted, and he went above and beyond my expectations. My hair color is probably the prettiest it has ever been, and I'm literally getting compliments from people everywhere I go. I've bounced around Charlotte salons trying to find a fit for me, and I've definitely found it. No one but Hustin will ever touch my hair again! By the way, the rest of the staff were very friendly and professional. 5 stars, 2 thumbs up, HIGHLY recommend. read more

Charlton at Shine Salon has completely made me start my 30's feeling trendy and attractive. He spent a lot of time consulting before he began coloring, cutting and working his magic! This was my 2nd visit to the salon and the customer service is the best I have had in this city. I have spent double these prices at salons in Charlotte for just a decent job. I felt like I was simply paying for a name. However, Charlton went beyond my expectations and I have been receiving compliments left and right. I couldn't be happier and plan on remaining a faithful client! read more

After years of disappointing hair cuts and colors I find this little gem. My stylist was Robi and she did an amazing job with my hair. The cut is perfect and I think she may have been more excited about the purple baliage than I was. I LOVE MY HAIR! It's exactly what I wanted. The staff was friendly and inviting. No push to purchase product and the cost was worth every penny. Oh and the fact that I got to have wine while I was being pampered...love it! I will definitely be returning and recommending this salon. read more

Shine Salon - Beautiful purple baliage done today by Robi. I love it!!! - Hair Salons Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

I just adore this place! Everyone who works here is so nice and they actually know what they are doing! It took me too long to find a new salon after leaving the NY Metro area, and this is now my Charlotte "hair home". I have seen both Andrea and James to maintain my highlights and cut and have been pleased each time. The only con is the price (NY prices)...but you pay for what you get! Definitely a diamond in the rough in Charlotte. read more

I recently moved to Charlotte and had a horrible experience at another salon in town, I made an appointment at Shine and Jennifer was awesome. She fixed the horrible cut as much as she could and gave me tips how to style it as it grows out. I definitely found my salon going forward. I didn't give it 5 stars only because I waited for almost 45 minutes with a scheduled appointment. read more

This is by far the best salon I have been to in Charlotte! If you are looking for a salon that offers a relaxing and fun atmosphere, Shine is the place for you! All of the staff members are very welcoming and accommodating. Sarah did a wonderful job with my cut and an even better job with my color! If you are also looking to have your makeup done as well, your coming to the right place. Travis does an excellent job at making you look natural but glamorous. I will most definitely be coming back and sharing with all of my friends and family! read more

I needed balayage and a cut (a pretty significant one, at that) - a coworker had been here and liked it so I booked an appointment. I go in for my appointment only to be informed that the woman I booked with no longer works there. They claimed to have called everyone who had an appointment with her to inform them, but I never received a call (I even checked my missed calls to make sure). So they book me with someone else. 10 days later I go back in. I tell the stylist what I want and after asking some questions, she gets to work. I didnt have her blow it out at the end because I had already been there for over three hours, so I didn't see what it looked like immediately. First of all, a price tag of over $200 for cut and color is insane. I know coloring is expensive, but balayage is no longer some new thing that you can mark up so absurdly. So that itself was not thrilling. But it happens - it's definitely on me for not verifying the price first. Second, the tone of my hair was completely off. It was barely lighter than my natural color and was weirdly orangeish. In all 5 years of highlighting my hair, no one has ever messed up the color. It's a pretty simple request, particularly since I always have some blonde remaining so it's easy to see what color I need. Naturally, after such a to-do just getting the appointment, I was annoyed and upset. The stylist brought me back in 10 days later and fixed it and it's better, but still not quite what I wanted. After all the hoopla with the appointments and the unsatisfactory execution, combined with the steep price tag, I will not be returning to Shine. read more

I moved to Charlotte, from the California Bay Area about a year ago. I had put of highlighting/coloring my hair because, as most women know, hair color appointments with a new stylist can be scary. I called Shine after reading the rave reviews on Yelp, so glad I did! The front desk staff Zack and Meret were so sweet and very helpful that I set an appointment with Marilyn. When I got to my appointment I was offered an array of beverages, even wine and beer! Marilyn and I had a discussion about my color expectations, she made me feel so comfortable in the decisions we made together that I couldn't wait to get started. We hit it off and talked the entire appointment. My color looks great! I found out during the appointment that all she does is color, as she mentioned I could accent my color with a great layered cut. She recommended Chelsea and I see her tomorrow! If you are in need of a great salon, I suggest this place will make you SHINE! read more

I've been a client of Sandi for about 4 years. She's AMAZING. We've done blonde, red, purple, pink and a million in between and I always come out happy. I know a couple people have commented on their wait time at the salon, but honestly it doesn't bother me. I know when I'm there, she's going to get it right and make me happy with the cut and color. Sometimes timing isn't an exact science. I'd recommend her to anyone and I do! She's cut my husbands hair as well and it looked great! Love her. Recommend 100%. read more

If you hate doing your hair because you can't master the technique or find hair care time consuming and expensive go to Heather. Heather did an excellent job!! I am really terrible when it comes to doing my hair. Heather didn't try to talk me into an "edgy" or complicated style. She immediately recognized that something simple and easy to care for was best for me. I have a hair style for the first time that I can style and it looks great in about 15 min. My mom had also dyed my hair and for the first time I paid a stylist to do my hair (to fix it) and I am thrilled! I had been seeing another stylist but I will be seeing Heather from now on. I highly recommend her. read more

Love this place, Chelsea is the BEST. So friendly, personable, and talented. Thanks for giving me exactly what i wanted and so much more!

Let's talk about what Shine is: it's a casual, quirky, friendly neighborhood salon. It's located in an old house, so each "room" has 3-4 chairs in it which provides a homey atmosphere, and small enough where a conversation might involve a whole room of customers/stylists which is why I keep going back. It's almost like an old-timey barber shop where people chime in on the latest gossip or story. It's a place where you can get a number of different levels of hair service from inexpensive with a junior stylist to pricey, involved triple foil lowlights/highlights with a glaze with the owner. All the stylists are nice/funny and even though I always go to the owner Amy, I know all the other stylists, so when the owner went out on maternity leave I felt comfortable going to Tina. I'm experimental when it comes to haircolor, and if an experiment doesn't come out the way I want, they totally are willing to fix it. I would recommend the BlowDry 101 class too because I'm super lazy when it comes to hair and this has saved me from many bad hair days. It also pays to be a VIP for a free birthday month haircut and some other specials where I got a great deal on a dryer and a Chi travel pack. Let's now talk about what Shine isn't: It is not a modern spa type atmosphere, or cold, clinical or systematized. It isn't a place where the stylists are too cool for school, nor trying to crank you out in 30 minutes (though they are busy). It is not a place where you can get nails done for a full beauty experience (unfortunately). It does not have a giant waiting room. It did not bother me when they ask me if I need products (though they don't push certain ones like Aveda does unless you ask for a specific usage) because although I was a lifetime Head & Shoulders girl, I discovered some of their products really are better than store bought brands and worth the $. Bottom line: it's a fun neighborhood salon. read more

Service was excellent but pricing is an issue and I unfortunately won't be returning. Prices are listed "and up" which I admittedly didn't notice when reviewing the menu but my total was very far from beginning menu prices for a very simple cut & color. When I got home, I felt very disappointed in the cut I got because of this overpayment. read more

Sandi did a great job with my hair. She came up with some great ideas for me This is a very nice salon and everyone is so friendly.

Upset about this place. The hair color and cut I received were perfect. The only complaint I have is the wait time I've had 2 times when I've made appointments. The first appointment I had I showed up 10 minutes early. I didn't get seen until 15 minutes after my scheduled time. Since I was happy with the cut and color I decided to go back for my follow up appointment. I arrived on time, checked in and received a glass of wine. 25 minutes had passed my appointment time. No one said anything to me as I watched clientd arrive after me and get seen before me. I decided to leave without saying anything as I will not be going back. It took them 45 minutes after my scheduled appointment to realize I was gone and to call me. Very upset. read more

I visited this salon yesterday and just asked for a simple cut. My stylist barely talked to me after I showed her the picture of what I wanted and didn't have a friendly attitude. The whole experience took about 20 minutes and I was charged $75! For a super simple cut I could've gotten at Super Cuts! They did give me a glass of wine and a little bag of samples when I left, but I was not impressed with the experience or the price tag at this place. read more

I'm new to Charlotte. Today was my first time to Shine. I explained to Hustin that my natural light brown hair with blonde highlights takes time to process to blonde. I showed him pictures of what my hair looks like when it's properly done. Also, pictures of the highlight-lowlight dimension in hair style color pictures. I only got highlights? Hmm, this time, because my hair needed a conditioning treatment. So, I got foils, a conditioning treatment and toner. The result: roots somewhat match the previously grown out portion, however, the overall color is not anywhere close to the light blonde pictures I showed him. He said it will take time to achieve that blonde. Hmm, why wasn't I informed of this prior to my highlights and hundreds of dollars? Is it possible that: A. He didn't listen and miscalculated the amount of time necessary to let the color process? B. He had another appointment waiting. C. He wanted to make sure I came back to try to achieve what I requested in the first place? Equalling more money of course. OR D. All of the above? Now, I'm stuck with this (color ?) for months. Wow, what a waste of time and money. I'm so disappointed. read more

I hate salons, but I like it here. I actually learned new things about my hair in the hour I spent with Jill, which was kind of shocking.

I just moved back to the area after several years away and the old salon I went to didn't have availability, so I yelped Shine and my visiting-from-Philly sister and I made same-day appointments. The receptionist was very sweet and made sure to book our appointments together. I told her I was considering ombre color so she booked me with Waverly, a stylist with experience in the technique, but she said that the stylist could only do a cut & color consultation due to time limitations. We got there and were offered drinks, "What kind do you have?" I asked...I was sold when I heard "white&red..." so I took my glass of red wine and waited just a few minutes before my cute as a button stylist Waverly came to get me. I discussed the cut I wanted, which was really more of a much-needed shape up, and the ombre color. Waverly looked at the clock and said since I wasn't looking for something dramatic she had time to do the color that day. YAY! The girl was so sweet, had interesting things to talk about as she's new to the area, and spent two hours on my hair until the salon closed. Additionally, I have wavy/curly hair that has taken my entire life to embrace. Instead of doing a typical salon-style blowout(which I could never pull off on my own at home), Waverly commented on how much she loved/was jealous of my hair-type and worked wonders with a diffuser to bring out my hair's natural texture--THIS IS HUGE!! On my way out of the salon I got a bag full of goodies, a handful of Waverly's business cards, and a bottle of product to boot. I didn't look too much at my hair that night as I went out right after but the next morning I was slightly disappointed, I wanted MORE color and I felt that I got more top layer highlights than a full ombre. I've never had the technique done before so I didn't know really how to communicate what I wanted. I himmed and hawed over whether I should call back because I liked everything that was done, but I didn't feel it was enough. So I called and left a message for the manager, who wasn't in that day, but who I got in touch with me promptly. I told her my predicament and she assured me that I should get what I want with my service, she booked an appointment for me first thing the next day. I was nervous showing up there because I didn't want to be perceived as rude or a prima donna. I talked with Waverly and she said that because I came in initially with a more natural look and no color in my hair that she held back because she wasn't sure how dramatic I wanted to go. She was totally cool with me coming back because she assured me that she wanted me to be happy. She did EXACTLY what I wanted and spent another TWO HOURS on my hair. She didn't skimp on the lovely scalp massage, she took her time, and fully styled my hair-ON THE HOUSE! My experience at Shine was really, really great. Waverly is a very sweet woman and a skilled, talented stylist in cut and color; she didn't make me feel awkward at all about coming back. The customer service was absolutely superb and Marit the salon manager really put me at ease also about making the decision to call after my first appointment. If you're on the fence about this place, I completely recommend it for the great cut, color, and customer service I received. This is a great business that is a SHINEing example of quality service! read more

I went to this salon based on the amount of great reviews that it received. The receptionist was very nice and welcoming. I asked to schedule an appointment to get my hair colored with someone who was an expert with coloring hair. She made an appointment with AJ for the following week. Prior to leaving she tried to get aj to meet with me so she could look at my hair. My hair is very light and I wanted to go back to a darker root with a purple ombré or leave my light tips. Aj was too busy to have this consult. I show up for my appointment and AJ was running about 15 min behind. We sit down and she tells me that they do not have enough of the purple color to do my purple ombré and that the darker brown needed for my roots may require 2 processes but she would have to check her books to see if she has time to do that today. After discussing what could be done with my hair I thought we agreed to leave my tips the light color they were and do roots dark as to not cause anymore damage to my hair bc she said it was damaged. I made it clear I didn't want a boring solid color dye job. Long story short that's what I got. A one process dark that still has light spots throughout hair. She then tells me I can come back next week and she will had purple or lighten which defeats the whole purpose of not staying light on my ends. I would not recommend AJ if you want an unusual or in depth dye job. She is an average colorist. read more

After having a less than stellar experience at a popular local salon chain, I've been maintaining my fine--yet rather abundant--blah brown hair at home. The reviews for Shine here on Yelp! (several of which mention Mark specifically) convinced me to make an appointment. MARK IS MAGICAL: with full balayage highlights, the aforementioned blah brown is now fabulously multi-dimensional with layers of amber, caramel, and honey. I'm kicking myself for not taking a selfie outside once I left yesterday afternoon so that I could share it here! I will update... He also shaped my hair into a textured, clavicle length wob/lob (IDK what the precise terminology would be here...); I can't stop swishing my hair because it MOVES and has that ever elusive volume that us fine haired ladies covet. Seriously, I may give myself whiplash. It is a testament to Mark's expert eye and hands. He listens, adjusts, and fine-tunes until it is perfect! I am a client for life! To speak to the salon as a whole, it is spotlessly clean, and I love the funky and stylish decor. I am also a sucker for old homes, so that's a plus. Major props for featuring local artists on their walls! Every other staff member I encountered was friendly and helpful. Something else that stood out: no one, Mark included, tried to upsell me to death with products. Mark suggested specific products to me because I asked and then did not assume that I would or needed to purchase all of them. Regardless, out of the four Mark recommended, I purchased three. I appreciated how even the ladies at the front desk didn't commit assumicide by giving me a total that automatically included all the products and instead supported me in making a decision based on my product needs and my budget. Very classy. It is so refreshing not to get the hard sell! I've had visits to salons in the past where my bliss bubble was popped by such tactics at the end of the service. So yeah--just call Shine and ask to book an appointment with Mark already. read more

The service was great. Everyone was so sweet. I came on a bit of a hectic day and I had made my reservation just that morning since they had an opening. James custom mixes my color and gave me a gorgeous cut. I've received nothing but compliments. Plus an all over color (Two mixes) and then a hair cut (drastic transformation) was only $100. I've normally paid $120 at other places. I will be seeing him again for sure!!! read more

James is an amazing stylist! I was with my prior stylist for about 15 years and I just wasn't happy with my hair or her advice on how to fix it, so I finally found another stylist closer to work in uptown Charlotte. My new stylist did a better job, but I still didn't love my hair. I searched Angie's list, yelp, etc for reviews and finally found Shine Salon and, most importantly, James. James was the first stylist who truly and carefully listened to what I liked and didn't like a out my hair and asked thoughtful questions about what would/wouldn't scare me before he put his brilliant and creative mind to work on my hair. After returning to the office after my first visit with James, my colleagues mouths dropped open and they said WOW your hair looks fantastic. I hate writing a review like this for selfish reasons - I want to keep James all to myself... I've since made an appt for my daughter-n-law to see him in a few weeks - I can't wait to see his creative transformation on her hair. read more

I saw Waverly for the first time today after previously going to a different hairdresser at Shine. Waverly is AWESOME! She took the time to listen to what I wanted and made suggestions to make my hair look its best. This is the first time I have ever walked out of a salon happy about my haircut. She is also a rockstar colorist and turned my full highlights into a great subtle ombre. HIGHLY recommend Waverly! read more

Go to Waverly! I have seen her 3 or 4 times now and every time she does an outstanding job. I had an ombre gone wrong incident before seeing her and she totally turned it around. We're phasing my hair back to my original blonde that I want and I love it. Her attention to detail and listening to exactly the cut and color I want are spot on. My go-to stylist in Charlotte! read more
