Fresh Salon in Charlotte, NC

This review is based on one visit. The person who cut my hair had me out of the chair in 20 minutes, and that's counting some chatting, a shampoo, a timeout so this person could get a bandaid because they cut their finger with the scissors, and using the hairdryer to finish. Some might be into a quick trip like that, and I might be too, except the result was an expensive haircut that looked rushed and sloppy and lacked finesse, and even a month later is so disappointing to me.

Very disappointed. I scheduled an appointment for the morning of my prom. I walked in and was told that there was no appointment under my name and that my appointment was scheduled by an employee who had been fired earlier that week. Not sure how that relates to me because that employee was not scheduled to cut my hair. I showed them proof of my scheduled appointment and they still offered me no solutions. Not very apologetic either. I will not be going back.

I had my second visit with Makayla today. The first visit was to tame my undercut. This time, a full haircut. She was so attentive and actually gave feedback about what would look good. Other places I've been to, it's just "whatever you want." She was checking in with me regularly (but not in an overwhelming way) to make sure I was still liking the way it was turning out. For reference, she cut a short bob with an undercut, including shaved sides. She was also really careful about my still-healing helix piercings which I greatly appreciated. I felt so much better walking out of Fresh than when I walked in. Thanks, Makayla!

Went here for the first time had a great and affordable experience with mkayla! Going to return

I had an amazing stylist back in SF, and was nervous about replacing him when we moved to Charlotte. However, I felt reassured that I found a great new stylist after my first haircut with Cris.

Cris gave me a haircut that was exactly what I was looking for and that grew out beautifully. I just got my third haircut from her today and don't think I will be able to go to anyone else. Cris is also very relaxed and easy to talk to.

I've also gotten my hair highlighted and glossed by Christina, and she gave me the exact color I was looking for each time. As someone with jet black hair, I was nervous about getting my hair dyed, but she did a great job both times.

The staff at the salon are always really nice and helpful, and it's so easy to make an appointment. They also carry Davines now, which is awesome. The prices are reasonable. Overall, I would recommend Fresh Salon!
