If you've ever had to grow out a tragic haircut, you know how scary it is to get even a little…read moretrim. Well, after five whole years of growing mine out and the DIY trim I attempted during quarantine, suffice it to say my hair was in dire need of divine intervention. Thankfully, Linda provided exactly that! She listened to all of my fears, wants, ideas, and questions, and gave me detailed suggestions for how to make me feel happy with my hair again. We concluded that I needed to chop off at least three inches, which made me nervous, but that quickly dissipated as she worked her magic. She even went so far as to have me point out which face framing hairs I leave out of my ponytail so that she could intentionally trim and shape each one - I've never had anyone care that much before! It's been years since I walked out of a salon feeling so stoked on a haircut. I didn't even miss the length we had to cut off, because my hair looks so much healthier, fuller, bouncier - and it feels infinitely softer. Which, if you've ever gone five years without a real haircut, is saying a LOT! I can't stop gently swishing my hair around whenever I walk, lol. Thank you so much to Linda! I highly recommend her services and will definitely be returning again :)

Do yourself a favor and get your next haircut at Arrow Studio. It's in a prime location in downtown…read moreDurham, and has a chic, open feel that reminds me of New York City (which is where the owners are from). The waiting area has a gigantic chandelier, and the front desk is made from a wooden art piece that also serves as a product shelf and changing rooms-- you have to see it to believe it. But you can't mention Arrow Studio without talking about how fantastic Tiffany is. She used to cut my hair at her last employer before opening Arrow Studio, and I happily followed her, even though my drive is a bit longer now. It's worth it. Arrow Studio has custom-designed units at each haircut station that houses all the stylists' equipment, but also has a pull-out shelf for any personal items you bring (sunglasses, cell phone, etc.). There's also a coat rack near the front, which seems mundane, but I can't remember the last time I went to get a haircut and actually had someone take my coat. It's the little details that matter. The biggest downside is that parking in downtown Durham can be a doozy. But don't worry! There are two parking decks right beside Arrow, and you can get your ticket validated after your haircut. Check out Arrow Studio next time you need a haircut, coloring or styling. It's a much-welcomed addition to the blossoming downtown Durham homegrown business scene.

Boy, am I glad I decided to come back. I booked a 2pm appointment with Heidi. I arrived around 2 minutes early and was promptly checked in. I was also asked if I wanted a complimentary beverage, and I asked for a coffee (which ended up being amazing). I didn't wait long--I was seated for my haircut at 2:06 PM. I told Heidi what I wanted and she asked detailed questions making sure I was happy with the length on top and sides before she got started. She then proceeded to cut my hair, and had great conversation along the way. She was really easy to talk to. She shampooed my hair and styled it to make sure it was up to her own standards, which I greatly appreciated. The cut cost $30 not including gratuity. Overall, I highly recommend this salon and Heidi in particular. I will certainly be back.

The Hair Place was $25+, the stylist did straight chop to my hair and told me that's how trims are supposed to be done. (So, everyone else is doing it wrong?) Plus, it was an awkward conversation experience. I thought that was the best quality I could hope for in this price range, but then... I went to see Carol. She was so friendly to chat with, and did a quick and awesome job. Add bonus was getting to play with her 3 pound Yorkie, Bella :) Found my new place for haircuts. It was $16 and tipped $10 because that still beats anywhere else I've been to. Definitely worth it for the quality and atmosphere. Highly recommend.
