I love this hair salon. It's bohemian style makes you feel at home. I also like all their safety measures that they have taken to keep us all safe. My stylist Rosie is friendly and if I bring in a picture she knows what like. This is why I'm recommending the salon. read more

Tease Knoxville - Hair Salons Near Me - Knoxville, Tennessee

I needed a new hairstylist, since I'm new in town. I bought a Groupon for another salon, called and called and no one ever answered or called me back. So I checked Yelp and called Tease. As luck would have it, I was able to get in the same evening, due to a fortuitous cancellation. My appointment was with Blythe. We immediately had good rapport. I explained my needs and hair preferences. She gave me a great cut on the first try. Yahoo! I've found my new salon. I can't wait to try getting new color there. read more

Absolutely loved my first time here! I'm super nervous with people touching my hair. It's long, curly, and thick! Destiny is amazingly friendly, kind, and sweet! She took my ideas for color and ran with it! My first time having any color sides blonde and brown hair. I 100% recommend this place and Destiny because she has big things going for her!!!! read more

Tease is a neat little salon in the area behind Nama on Kingston pike. The vibe is very laid back and very fun, it's like going to hang out with your friends. Alyse is my go to girl for all things hair. She is the best! I have been going to her forever- I have gotten all over color, highlights, and ombré color and have loved them all. She keeps up with all the latest styles and techniques so she will know exactly what you are talking about even if you kinda don't. I also really like their Kevin Murphy products because they make my hair silky soft. I look forward to getting my hair dyed here because it actually feels healthier afterward. Alyse did my hair for my wedding along with all my bridesmaids. We got so many compliments, the styles were very classy and beautiful. read more

I have found my hair salon and stylist! We moved from Texas where I had the same girl for 23 years and it was hard to trust someone again but I got the jackpot when I found Alyse first. She is the first stylist I have tried in Knoxville after being her a year and I am so glad she was my first! This salon is very trendy and has some of the nicest and friendliest people that work here. Alyse is beyond perfect! She was able to pull my hair up to a beautiful burgundy red from black and it so much better than I even pictured . I am so glad I found her and this salon. Alyse also uses the beat hair color I have had on my hair, Kevin Murphy products. read more

I love this salon. I moved here in 2008 and was recommended here by a family member and I have been coming ever since. The salon has a retro/pin-up style about it and they play good music. Everyone is pretty young and hip and the prices are reasonable. I have long hair and bangs I pay $40.00 which is great because I am always satisfied with my cut! I see Alyse and she is wonderful! I don't do anything to complicated with my hair but I've seen her work (dye and cut) on other clients and she is GOOD! She even pleased my mother, who is not the easiest client. I know Alyse teaches classes and she is very educated when it comes to her job. Plus, she's fun! I actually get excited to get my hair cut because I get to visit with her! Tease always calls me back when I leave a message, their employees are constant (I always see the same stylists when I go in) & the price is right. No complaints here. read more

After doing a ton of research on the salon, I tried to book an appointment with Brandy for a DevaCut and treatment. Brandy is not taking new clients, but I was assured that Rosie is also a Level 2 DevaCurl stylist, so I booked a 9 a.m. with her the next day. There were some really unprofessional (and shocking) things about the appointment - Rosie had another stylist wash her hair while I was under a dryer, she talked about a client's "daughter who was born without a butthole" with another stylist while she was treating my hair, and there was hardly any education about the process itself beyond asking me if I knew about it. As it turns out, none of my research was enough to tell me that I could end up losing 8 inches of my hair and having a cut so botched I had to have my usual stylist do an emergency fix. One side of my hair was two inches longer than the other, I had "chunks" of hair cut out of the line of the cut, and the back was wildly uneven. Despite the fact that I maintained through the entire appointment that I needed to be able to put my hair up and didn't want to go above shoulder length at all, I no longer even have enough length for a ponytail. I went home and spent 3 days trying to work with the style before calling my stylist for the fix. It wasn't until I straightened my hair that I was able to see that the reason it looked so awful was because th me cut was atrocious. I sent Tease an e-mail requesting a refund and, in the most juvenile and unprofessional callback I've ever had, I was told the service had been performed and no refund would be issued. Not even what it cost me to have it fixed. I was also told I couldn't have been unhappy because I was nice when I left!? I was warned by Rosie that the owner and clientele of the salon are very passionate about defending against negative reviews and they gang up on people who leave them. I was also asked not to leave a negative review multiple times during the appointment. Again, really weird and unprofessional. DevaCuts have their own pitfalls, but adding a horrible salon experience to them is a nightmare. read more

The 1st thing I did when I moved to Knoxville in July 2014 was find a hair stylist! I found the lovely Scarlet von Strange and well...I stopped looking! I got a great cut with her the 1st time! From the thoughtful questions she asked regarding my hair maintenance comfort, to just the fun conversation, I was really happy! When I decided to go super short - she again was amazing! She also died me red with more red undertones (I'm sure I'm not saying that correctly) and it was great! Completely flawless! I'm going back to get bangs because, no matter how nervous I may feel ab the change to my hair, she's going to execute it flawlessly! I've had some interaction with other staff members, but not on a by-name basis. Everyone has been very polite, though! The salon has a really good vibe, and is very chill. The gold chairs are spot on! Every time I am there, I can catch bits and pieces of other stylists' conversations, and they really do all seem to care ab their clients and really get to know their client. I love it! read more

Just as a note, Rebel Salon is now known as Tease, and as far as I know, pretty much everything is the same about it other than it being under new management. Tease is, not an exaggeration here, either one of or THE best salon in the Knoxville area. It's definitely the best if you live a rockabilly or alternative lifestyle, as most of the people working here also have this look about them, and therefore know their stuff. Its pink walls, Marilyn Monroe posters, sparkling gold chairs and loud-but-not-deafening rock music blastin' in the background give it the coolest and most hip atmosphere. Stephanie was my hairstylist, and she was one cool cat. Interesting to talk to, but also prompt when it came to cutting my hair. Which, of course, is a good combo! I already loved the place, but when she got done, OH MY GOD. My hair looked SO GOOD. I get the same cut pretty much everytime, which is a 1920's esque bob a la Louise Brooks, but no salon so far has got it exactly right until Tease here showed up. I will definitely be back! 35 dollars a cut, too, which is a steal. Tease Salon, you are my new hero. read more

I love this place! I just got a hair cut and color here for the first time. Corey was my stylist. She gave me a really nice medium-length choppy hair cut. I have thin hair and she was able to put some layers in, which gave it some much needed body and a nice texture. She made it look totally different/better without shortening the length. Not all stylists can do that. I also like the fact that it is very easy for me to style it at home. I got color as well. I gave Corey a few guidelines, but basically told her to be creative and do whatever she thought would look good. She wound up giving me dark brown hair with red highlights. I love it and I've been getting lots of compliments on it. She even told me that I can come back in a couple weeks to have the red touched up, as that color fades quicker than others. I think that is awesome. I've always been a fan or red hair, particularly bright reds, and am always prepared for them to fade quickly. I've never been to another salon that has offered to do a touch up free of charge. I highly recommend Tease and I will be back. read more

I've had my hair dyed here before and was very pleased. The salon is clean and the staff is friendly. So I figured I'd take my nice extensions there to be dyed to match my new color. After the first process half came out fine but the other half were really a mess. So I took the other half back. They still aren't right. For $100 I expect an even all over color. I don't have time to go back another 2 times. It's not the end of the world, I am sure I can put the time in at some point. But I need to wear them for a shoot tomorrow, and they are far from even. I'll post a pic. So while a nice salon overall, I would recommend taking your $500 extensions elsewhere or rolling the dice yourself for 1/5 the price. read more

What a great place! Very eclectic, friendly staff and little to no wait for all services. I needed waxing and a haircut done day of and I was able to get in pretty fast. Violet is excellent with hair, so be sure to ask for her! I had eyebrows waxed and I simply can not remember the Wonder Woman who did them but I was very satisfied. This is a little off the main drag in the heart of Bearden and convenient to everything. Take a chance, you won't be disappointed. read more

I've been meaning to write a review for Tease since I first stumbled into its doors. I've been to dozens of hair salons over the years, and none has ever felt like Tease. The environment is friendly, welcoming, and fun. If that wasn't enough, Rosie is by far the best, most detail-oriented hair-stylist I've ever had the luck to encounter. She always listens and takes as much time as necessary without ever making me feel like a bother or trouble. I have curly hair, and until Rosie, I'd never had a stylist cater to my curly hair. She is amazing and has the highest DevaCurl certification in the state of Tennessee! If you're not sure where to go, go here. read more

I absolutely love this place! Rosie is my hairstylist and she is amazing! I never leave the salon disappointed.

Brandy and the staff are the best in the biz. I have never left disappointed. In fact, I have never left feeling less than beautiful. Brandy is an expert for sure. Color, cut, anything. I wouldn't think of going anywhere else. ***Just a quick update to say that Brandy and the folks at Tease are still the best. Left today feeling loved and my hair was perfect. read more

I have been going to Ashley here for over a year now and I can't say enough great things about her and the salon as a whole. From the precautions they are following with COVID to the level of service. Everything is great! I could go on and on! read more

This salon is amazing! Clean, professional, and friendly! I received a haircut from Brandy and I'm totally in love. I have had some bad experiences in the past from other places but totally confident in her abilities. She is really amazing at what she does! She is so knowledgable and told me what I could do to keep my hair healthy. She listened so well to what I wanted and she recreated exactly what I wanted. I love my new hair and will definitely be back. read more

Ok Rosie is amazing! I am a curly haired 50 yr old women and I took the time to research the deva cut! I have been in Knoxville for almost 6 year and when I meet Rosie I finally met someone who knew how to cut curly hair. I have always colored my hair out of a box but no more. Rosie is affordable and my hair has never looked better! read more

Krista has been doing my hair for years now and not only do i receive many compliments but have loved every single cut and color shes done. Rebel is a punk rock alternative salon that not only excel at creative color ( neon colors ) but also can do anything u like. This is the hippest salon in town and the prices are very reasonable for the service you receive. i couldn't be happier about giving my money to them. read more

Cant say enough good things about this place! Place is super hip and the people are awesome. I came to Rosie for a Devacurl transformation and she blew it out of f the water... I was shocked! My hair has been super damaged from a couple chemical hair treatments and she listened to what I wanted but was also honest with what she thought would be best for my hair now and gave me some options and we were able to decide on one that we both thought was great. I ended up having my hair cut a little shorter than I thought I wanted going in but Rosie showed me how damaged my hair was and how much healthier my hair would be once it was cut. Best part was she gave me the cutest cut ever which consisted of multiple layers which framed my face and looked incredible and now my hair can grow out again and be healthy as EVER. I have gotten non-stop compliments about my hair and am in love! Rosie is so knowledgeable about the different hair types and products and really listens to what you want and makes some magic happen! read more

I'd been looking for a salon in the area for a very specific style, somewhere that wasn't crazy expensive but also didn't specialize in Meemaw hair. Alyse at Tease hooked me up and did right by me. Extra plus, I came in with my five year old and got no side eye, which has definitely happened at other salons in the area. read more

Scarlet rocks! She's a lot of fun and a great conversationalist. I've gotten my hair styles at salons and barbershops all over town. In her hands, my hair has never looked better. I get compliments all the time. I highly recommend Tease and I DEFINITELY recommend Scarlet. read more

The hair color and the style was completely different from what I had asked for. It was not even fixed after returning there. It was quite a simple style, however it seemed I was getting what the stylist wanted and not me. read more

Tease has the most diverse, warm, and educated group of talented stylists available in Knoxville. I have seen Brandy Johnson, the owner, for roughly going on five years now. She is always on top of trends and is extremely educated on everything new. When she has been out of town or not available I have seen Claire, Corey, and Alyse...all of which are equally amazing. I recommend everyone at Tease for an inviting environment to relax and get beautiful! read more

Had my hair colored by Blythe this week and it looks wonderful! I had a great time chatting with Blythe and the staff were all very friendly. Great place to go in Knoxville if you want non-traditional color for your hair (pink hair, blue hair, orange hair, teal hair, green hair, etc) read more

Tease Knoxville - Great place to go in Knoxville if you want non-traditional color for your hair. - Hair Salons Near Me - Knoxville, Tennessee

Great place! I loved the fun, vintage-y vibe of the salon, and my haircut (by Ashley) was awesome. Exactly what I wanted. The price was definitely right ($40). I'll be coming back to Tease for sure! read more

I had a great time and an awesome cut! The purple looks amazing and Violet was an amazing person. I'm definitely going back. Only a 4 star because the air was on full blast right in my face the entire time. I needed a parka. read more

Brandy, Corey, Justin, and only the best in Knoxville work there, and that is all you need to know. Bonus there is a secret door upstairs that leads to a secret room. See if you can find it for a nice surprise. Also sadly they have no pictures of Marilyn Manson hanging up, only Marilyn Monroe. read more

Happy I gave this salon a try! It's been a while since i have been this happy with a haircut. Ashley did an amazing job and recommended great products for my hair type. I'll be back, thank you Ashley! read more

I have very thick very curly hair that can be difficult to deal with. I got an amazing curly cut here. Ange knew her stuff too and walked me through the styling process recommendations so I could easily replicate the look at home. Would highly recommend this place to curly girls, they have 4ish staff members trained in curly hair and know how to do a proper cut. read more

I loved the salon. Everybody was super friendly and the atmosphere was awesome. I highly recommend this salon to others. P.s Katie is the bomb at color! read more

It's funny how you float about your life thinking you have everything that you need and with one brief interaction you wonder how you lived your life at all without this new person. So goes the story with the introduction to my hair soul mate. I had been in a monogamous relationship with my stylist for sometime and while I wasn't unhappy, I often wondered if there was more out there for me in the world of hair. Another dear, sweet Yelper had listened to my woes and suggested that I meet a friend of hers. While I'm not really into blind dates, I checked the Yelp reviews for Tease and threw caution to the wind. It would just be a one-time thing. My regular stylist didn't have to know, right?! I felt so wild. This was so unlike me. So I made an appointment. After 5 minutes in Corey's chair, I knew I'd never be the same and that this was more than just a one-time thing. I felt so comfortable with her. She listened to me and advised me on the good and bad of what I had in mind for my hair. Working together, we decided on a plan of action. She devised a plan that would be amazing immediately and continue to fade and change and not cost me a bazillion dollars to maintain. Thankfully, I'll still get to see Corey regularly to maintain my roots. My hair looks amazing and I get compliments like crazy! This is a story of true client/stylist love. Aside from being fantastic at what she does, Corey is stinkin' adorable. She will change your life. read more

I had read many great reviews about this place, but walking in it was awful. The woman at the front desk was on her phone and didn't acknowledge me until I said hello, even though you could clearly hear my heels on their floor. She was unenthusiastic and uninterested. She wasn't very helpful at all and made it seem like I was bothering her. She talked to me like I was stupid even though I knew exactly what I wanted and just needed a price range for balayage. Waste of my time and an awful place.. read more
