This was my fourth visit to Empower and I will absolutely come back! Diana "Dee" and Kerri worked on my hair and did a great job. I wanted to soften my natural root to old highlight line. They incorporated my natural dark/ dirty blonde in lowlights and added some more highlights for dimension. A nice, soft, fall blonde. The salon itself is a pleasant place to spend time. I appreciate their detail in aesthetic, light refreshments, and holiday decor. I also admire their community involvement with organizations like Reach St Pete. Thank you Empower!

Highly recommend! Brittany is an amazing stylist. She took the time to talk through what I envisioned for my hair and I appreciated her going through each step of the process! She is very detailed oriented and neat. Love the high quality products that Empower uses! Everyone was friendly and such a positive atmosphere. I'm so happy and relieved to have finally found my new hair salon and stylist!

4.5 weeks of growth

Kerri at Empower is amazing! I came in with a very specific thing in mind and she went beyond my expectations! I had an old ombre (about 16 months since my last dye job) and wanted something drastic and new. I sent her the reference photo and told her I wanted reds that matched my skin tone while also adding in dimension without flat color. I was a little afraid about damaging my hair, but Kerri took care to ensure that my hair stayed intact. It's been about 5 weeks and I've had no more fallout with each wash than I had before my appointment, and my hair still looks amazing. The color retention is so good, and she trimmed all my dead ends as well. The cost was great value, at least for what I'm used to paying in LA salons, and the quality of product is impeccable. She is great in the consultation, and was quick to reply to my instagram DM and get me in to the next available appt. She wants to make sure her clients are comfortable with their color, especially those who aren't used to drastic changes. I can't wait to see Kerri again to refresh my red color and go in with an even icier white in the front! Reference photo, before photo, day of after in different lighting, and 4.5 weeks of growth attached. 10/10 recommend Kerri!

Liz Barnett is amazing!! She always gets my blonde right and gives the best haircuts. I get compliments all the time on my hair. Definitely the best.

Hair paining to brighten up that blonde look

I went to Sarah for hair and makeup for an event. She talked and listened and did a fantastic job…read more I decided to try her for a cut and color and she also did a fantastic job! The salon is very pleasant and the prices in line with the area. This is now my regular salon!

I saw Alecia at Salon Color Bar and she was FANTASTIC. So friendly, knowledgeable, and talented,…read moreshe not only was able to perfectly recreate the hair color in the photo I showed her, but also bring the vision of my hair I had in my mind (but couldn't quite express) to life. She made my hair look SO much healthier with the color and a cut (I needed the hard truth that I had a lot of dead ends), as well. She first walked through what I wanted and what would look best for my hair type (I have baby fine, straight hair that had an old, grown out blonde highlight job that turned brassy) and then worked her magic. She chatted when I wanted to chat and other times just let me soak in the experience (especially the amazing shampoo/scalp massage). She definitely has found a repeat client with me! The salon itself is small but doesn't feel cramped at all, and everyone is super nice so you end up joining in other conversations, as well. You can have coffee or water and your stylist is with you from start to finish (no hand-offs to someone else who will shampoo your hair for you). Sunday was a low key day so I can't be sure it's always like this, but I appreciated that level of attention and care. The quality is worth the cost (not the cheapest but also not the most expensive color I've had, and the B3 is worth $50 more), for sure!
