I asked for long layers and thought that they gave me exactly what I had requested. I got it washed, cut, and blow-dried for a very reasonable price. It wasn't busy, so the vibes were great.

I came prepared with a couple photos of the style I wanted - U shaped with long layers. The stylist understood perfectly and the haircut only took about an hour.

Tried 2 other Korean barber shops in the Triangle (Hair News and Miss Kim's), and Scissorhands…read more(Andy) clearly provides the best service but compared to the other 2, it's also the most expensive, which is enough reason for me to alternate between the 3 aforementioned Korean barber shops. Scissorhands is my family's favorite with my two younger brothers regularly getting haircuts here. Andy is not as friendly as Miss Kim in Morrisville, but we recently had a nice conversation about the Korean language since I just started studying it. The cut was masterful, for sure, and followed the example I showed in a photo saved in my phone. Shampoo was included at no additional cost and I did not have to wait in my latest visit around Friday noon. I used to pay around $30 to $35 for a regular men's cut but the latest service, Andy charged me $40 (not including tips). As for the atmosphere, it's more spacious than their old location (where they shared space with other salons) but it's not as spacious as Hair News. Nonetheless, it's in a good location by High House Road, close to Cici's Pizza, a small Walmart market, and just less than 5 minutes drive away from HMart.

I liked that they had Capri suns ( the kid in me) offered to drink. Convo was decent and I get not all people are talkers. I particularly want either this day, so what ever, I just wanted my hair done right. I felt my back wet during the process and it wasn't the greatest feeling but whatever, it will dry right? I was semi happy with the results at the moment but also disappointed that it was only 2 peices and ended up in 2 huge sections with the dark in the middle. Think craolla devil look or a skunk with blonde stripes. Total $170 with not tip, after tip was about $205. That was no full blow dry, no style, no cut...nothing but the highlights and semi dry. Tip is not accepted on card only cash or venmo type apps. Anyhow, I leave, go home and a few days later my hair is very yellow and not blended at all. It looked terrible.. like I said yellow skunk. So a few more days go by and I am doing laundry. I notice the jumper I was wearing has a huge stain on it where all of my back felt wet. I thought, maybe this will wash out...it did not! It was dyed and I have bleach marks all over my outfit. I ended up having to go somewhere else and spend another couple hundred to get my hair fixed ( I showed the same inspo pic) and I have an outfit ruined by the hairdye. I will not be returning and I would not recommend going here. I'm giving a 2 because of the carpi sun, otherwise it would be a 1.

My wife's been going here nearly two years…read more I've been going here for nearly a year now, based on her results. Both Jen (our stylist) and Don (the owner) know their stuff. If you spend more than five minutes talking about hair and product with them, you realize it. My hair is the bane of every stylist I've every been to. It has horrible cowlicks that appear everywhere, without warning. Consistency of cut has also been an issue for me in the past. We've all been to places where they get your hair perfect once, and spend the next four visits trying to figure out how they lucked into it. That isn't the case here. At this point, they've tamed my hair into something manageable and consistently stylish. My wife opted to go with a non-traditional color with her hair, and the expert advice of both Don and Jen has turned her hair into the subject of non-stop compliments. Random strangers stop her in stores and ask her where she gets it done. Coloring hair is an art and a science, and the folks at dsparada have mastered both. I recommend them without reservation.

I had a really disappointing experience with Lory. My hair is black, and she immediately said she…read morewasn't sure if she could lift the color. She did a strand test, which actually showed that my hair could lift, but then still said she didn't feel comfortable doing my color because she had never done it before. That alone was frustrating, but what made it worse was that she still tried to charge me $30 for a "consultation," even though no real service was provided and she ultimately refused to do my hair. The whole interaction felt unprofessional and honestly rude. If you have black hair or need someone experienced with darker tones, I would not recommend coming here--they clearly lack the experience and confidence to handle it properly.

Felicia Hair Braiding has been a go to for a decade. She has done my hair a few times…read more The Box braids are top tier. There was at least one time when she dropped the ball on a last minute appointment I made with her last summer. I didn't press when I saw she couldn't fit me. Recently June, she was a life saver by taking me as a walk in when a flaky braider canceled my appointment the morning of. I was so appreciative of her fitting me in as a walk in. I was in a panic mode, as you may know having a hair stylist flake on you is so disappointing and it's an inconvenience. Felicia completed what was suppose to be medium Senegalese but they turned out more small and I love them. They've lasted so long. I look forward to returning.

Referred to front desk who wasted 30 minutes of my time to go ahead and say I would be charged a no show no fee of 100%. That they would be curtesy and only charge 50%.

Never ever ever go to this salon for their unprofessionalism and lack of curtesy. I am shocked beyond words!!!!

LATE REVIEW: I grappled with giving this a 3 stars because I wasn't satisfied with my hair BUT…read morethat's a me thing (keep reading for the details), I'm giving it a 4 because the customer service was outstanding. Finding a new hairstylist is just as difficult as finding a new doctor. Whenever I move to a new area I try to ask for referrals from people who have similar hair to mine. I was referred to Alfa Jae Salon by someone who also has curly hair, however, after my visit I learned the person who referred me only gets their hair colored and gets it cut somewhere else. Here's what I liked about the salon: Everyone there was wonderful, they had a very cool eclectic vibe and lots of women were getting unique hair coloring done. I've always worn my hair straight but I'm ready to embrace my natural curl so I made the appointment requesting a cut and styling tips on how to manage my curls. The stylist was very sweet, she gave me a quick tutorial on how to add product and trying techniques, however the cut was average. The owner overheard our conversation because I was asking a lot of questions about layering and needing more shape and she immediately stepped in with some advice for the stylist. I didn't love my hair when I left but I also did hate it. I later learned the stylist I selected was still in training so that made a lot of sense on some of the apprehension she demonstrated and she said if it didn't work out I could come back. Now that I've learned more about styling curly hair I think if I would have scrunched out the crunch and did a little shaking it would have met my expectations. I'll be honest, I am very picky about my hair and own being a difficult client. This salon is great but I needed a more seasoned stylist, had I known she was a junior stylist I would have likely not made the appointment.

When you arrive you fill out paperwork with a few questions and they take your temperature. Do not forget your mask because they are required. The salon is split into two zones and the stylists have assigned teams that they work certain days with so if there is a COVID incident the chance of spread is minimal. They are still not serving drinks but blow drys are back! Alysha is the best stylist. I've been going to her for my cuts and colors since she was a blossom. You really can't go wrong with any of the stylists here though. They do a mentor program for new stylists, receive training to stay up-to-date with the latest techniques, they love where they work and are passionate about what they do. I highly recommend Blo. I also wanted to comment about what they did during the shutdown. They gave away free hair color to existing clients, there was a suggested donation of $20 (or more) and the proceeds went to No Kid Hungry NC. How amazing is that? One last thing, bring cash for the tip. They have an ATM if you forget (or you can just do venmo).

They managed to take both of us at the same time which was so nice. I love the airy, beautiful salon and the southern hospitality as they ask what we would like to drink when we came in the door.
