VIOLET HAIR LOUNGE REVIEWS

Loved my first experience at Violet Hair Lounge. I have been searching for a new stylist since I moved to the Island; I wish I had found this salon and Summer sooner. She listened, gave me a great cut and was knowledgeable about their product lines. Looking forward to going back soon for some highlights .

I did a cut (long hair-curly) and a scalp massage with Meghan…. I am loving the cut. She listened and knew exactly what I wanted. She is also such a sweet person. An exceptional stylists! I highly recommend.

Meghan was lovely and I was very happy with my haircut. She also gave me great advice for a future appointment. She gave my daughter her first salon haircut and my daughter was beaming after she left. We will both be back.

ACCENTS HAIR STUDIO REVIEWS

Had my first experience here and it was awesome. Melanie was my stylist she was super friendly and made sure to ask exactly what I wanted. The overall vibe of the salon was also very friendly and welcoming. 10/10 would recommend. Walked out loving my hair.

I had my first appointment with Melanie, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! She took the time to understand what I wanted and delivered an amazing haircut. Her attention to detail and expertise really stood out. I left feeling confident and refreshed. Highly recommend her.

I love getting my hair done here ! The shop is very open and bright and the staff are all wonderful. I see Melanie faithfully every 4 weeks and she helps keep my hair nice , healthy & long.

AURA HAIR BOUTIQUE REVIEWS

I recently had the pleasure of getting my hair done at Aura by Brynn and it was one of the best experiences I’ve had at a salon. First off the space is clean, gorgeous and relaxing definitely somewhere you can escape to for a full service and feel comfortable the whole time! I went in to get my hair cut and coloured, Brynn was super accommodating and shared her wealth of knowledge with me. Giving me tips, tricks and a plan to keep my hair in the best health possible, I left with an amazing hair service, the tools and products to keep my hair looking stun! It is well worth every penny, I highly recommend getting pampered at aura their lineup of stylists is top tier.

100% recommend this salon! Specifically both girls Anna and Peyton. I’ve gotten my hair done by both of them and they did such a fantastic job. The salon overall has such a great atmosphere and you really feel the love when you walk in! All the women have such a good attention to detail and care about not only achieving your hair goals, but keeping it healthy as well! Everyone should go here, it’s the best salon in town.

I visited Aura for the first time yesterday and can't recommend enough. I had Natalie as my stylist; she did a lived in balayage and it looks amazing! I don't typically get my hair done because I can't justify spending so much for my hair; however Natalie was worth every dollar and I will definitely go back.
