I was in town for a wedding, staying at a hotel nearby, and saw they were within walking distance of this salon. I called on a Friday and was able to get an appointment for the next morning a few hours after I was scheduled to fly in. Very spacious, open, airy space conveniently located in Charlotte's South End district. It was fairly quiet for a Saturday at 11:30a. Just two stylists in the shop. My stylist said they're still only half-staffing since Covid and with so many clients working from home, Saturday's are not the super busy days they used to be! So I scheduled a blow-out (wash/blow dry/style) so my hair would look well done for the wedding. Kerry, my stylist, was great. She was honest, straightforward, and tried every which way from Sunday to get my abysmally straight fine hair to do something, anything, other than lay flat on my scalp. We landed on an up-do when the "wear it down" options didn't go as planned. My hair sucks, so I did appreciate the valiant effort and I was pleased with the end result. Thank you, Kerry! read more

Once you enter the salon you are transported into an industrial and eclectic atmosphere ... the staff is friendly and helpful and David is certainly a magician with color and cut !! He is honest, but not to a fault and genuinely interested in the outcome of your hair and the manner in which you glow when the work is completed !! It is pricey, but no more than other salons which do not supply the same outcome ! The only tip is to get an appt early... he is always very busy !! read more

Got the cool summery haircut of my dreams! Lanie cut my hair and she did a fabulous job. A shampoo, cut, blow dry and style is $55 but they honored the 25% off so I paid around $42 and gave a $10 tip. Paid $52 for a smoking summer cut and color consultation overall. Great deal, especially when places uptown are charging $60+ pre-tip for anything. Lanie was super patient, very knowledgable, and so funny. For anyone coming in, I recommend her for a cut! read more

KM Salon - The smoking summery haircut of my dreams! - Hair Salons Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

See all

A friend of mine recommended Lainie at KM & Company and I finally went to see her. I really appreciated the time she took and she definitely knows how to cut curly hair so that it stays curly. She stayed within my request not to lose much length. I'm trying to grow my hair longer and it had been 6 months since my last haircut. She did a great job and although it may be 6 more months til my next haircut, I'll definitely see Lainie again! p.s. they share an entrance with The Common Market, so if you have some time to kill before your appointment you can always go in and enjoy a beverage! read more

Today Karla transformed me....from a mid-length haircut to a smart layered bob. She really understands her clients! If you are looking for great color and a stylish cut I highly recommend KM Salon. read more

KM Salon - New cut! - Hair Salons Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

In my 30 years on this planet, I've let under 5 stylists touch my hair. As long as I'm in Charlotte, Karla will be the only one to come close to my hair with a scissors. Not only is she sweet and conversational, she really knows what she's doing. While cutting your hair, she gives you valuable tips and tricks to maintenance, styling, and general information about the characteristics of your hair. Ladies, you know what I mean when I say that you know when it's time for a cut. You hate your hair, nothing looks right, etc. Since switching to Karla, I no longer have that problem. She cuts my hair to make the grow out easy for styling. Weeks after my cut, I still love my hair! What I value equally is the staff that surrounds Karla. All of her stylists that I've met are welcoming and very nice. You walk in to KM & Company and are hit with a positive vibe. I know how hard it can be to switch to a new stylist but believe me when I tell you, you will not be disappointed by Karla and her KM & Company team! read more

I have been a client of Karla Kuhlmann's for more than 15 years and have had my hair done by her stylists for at least 10 years more than that. Simply put: Karla is the best. She is an incredibly talented professional and offers the most cutting edge styles, color and products to her clients. I have difficult, fine hair with a wave and more cowlicks than I can count. Karla keeps me looking consistently good with haircuts and color that suit my hair, my face and body type and personality. All of her stylists are well trained professionals too. Located in a beautiful space in popular Southend, KM Salon is convenient to uptown and the Light Rail line. If I could, I would give Karla and her spectacular staff 20 stars. Every penny spent in this salon is an investment in your best self. It's no wonder the salon has been No. 1 on the Charlotte's Best List year after year! read more

KM Salon is a great salon in the heart of Charlotte. It offers everything wanted in a upscale salon without the exorbitant price tag. The salon is clean, staff is kind & professional and services are great. I am always confident I will get the exact cut/color I am looking for in a timely fashion. Being to get salon services a reasonable amount of time is a key factor me. Stylists are never behind schedule. read more

Love KM salon. Ally is amazing. They really know how to color thick, long, wavy hair!

Such an upbeat and professional atmosphere! I just recently moved to Charlotte and discovered this salon on Yelp. I read great reviews on the place and reviews about the sweet and talented Ms. Allie! I decided to give it a shot and I'm so thankful I did. The place itself is so chic and professional. In addition, Allie listened to everything I'd envisioned for myself and NAILED IT. This will be my new permanent salon! I highly recommend. read more

After being victim of a disastrous hair color appointment at a different salon, KM salon was able to fit me into their busy schedule and completely fix the color of my hair! Alison was absolutely amazing. She explained what she believed happened with my hair color and how she thought it was best to fix it. She was very understanding and made me feel so much better... not to mention my hair looked amazing when she was finished! All the staff was so courteous and friendly! I may have had a horrible salon experience elsewhere, but it led me to KM Salon and I will absolutely be back to see Alison! She is a great stylist! I cannot thank them enough. Highly recommend. read more

I went in today for a cut and color and Alison did exactly what I wanted! She took my brass yellow into a nice cool blond and made my hair so much healthier! She is amazing with color and I cannot wait to come back in again! read more

I made an appt and confirmed the date and time before putting it into my personal calendar. I left work early to get there on time to be told they had scheduled me for next week. Very inconvenient and clearly not organized. Very disappointed. read more

Very comfortable. Everyone is so friendly and nice and Karla cuts my fine, curly hair so well and advises me when I want something that won't work! Great salon. read more

Do yourself a favor and run, dont walk, to see Christina at KM and Company. After spending years of being super picky about who colors my hair, I went to Christina after falling in love with a friend's hair color. Christina ended up taking me from a highlighted blonde mess to a beautiful dark brown, which I LOVE. I get compliments all the time on how natural it looks and how they cant believe I was ever a blonde. Christina is a color goddess and not only listens to what you want, but always is able to put her touch on things that you might not have thought of. Im moving to the west coast soon and at a complete loss with what I am going to do without her. The rest of the ladies at the salon are absolutely lovely and sweet and are always excited to see what we have done with my hair that time. So glad I found this salon! read more

Karla is absolutely the BEST hairdresser in town! She is personable and attentive while in her chair. As owner of the salon, she cares about her staff and ensures they are all learning new techniques and styles often. The salon is ecclectic and fun and always very clean! And being right beside The Common Market is just an added bonus!! read more

Allie did my hair and it looks great! My hair was a gold/yellow blonde which I hated. It just needed some major help after a different salon visit. Allie listened to exactly what I wanted and made it an ashier/more natural blonde. She is so talented and also so sweet! I will definitely be back again :) read more

Christina at KM and Company Salon is an amazing hair stylist. I was in Charlotte for a special occasion, (I live in NJ), and made an appointment to have my hair done. I have naturally curly hair and walked into the salon with a frizzy mess. I am very particular and Christina listened to my every concern and patiently answered all of them. She thoroughly understands curly hair, which I greatly appreciate because I have had some bad experiences. Christina took the time to explain the products that she used and she showed me how to apply them for the best results. She thoroughly knows the chemistry of the products and how they work with your hair. My curls were awesome when she was done!!! So hydrated and well defined!! I am so happy that I found KM and Company Salon and will definitely return the next time I am in Charlotte. Thank You, Christina! I highly recommend KM and Company Salon. The salon is beautiful - a large, airy and bright space that is so relaxing. Everyone was friendly and helpful. read more

I am a guy who is very critical of my haircuts. No one has ever been able to cut my hair the way I always want it. Until my girlfriend told me to come here I was going from barber to barber. Now it's safe to say this place will never be able to get rid of me. Christina is amazing. I will never let anyone except for her cut my hair again. But the biggest plus about this place is Common Market is next door and you can grab a beer while you get a cut. What guy doesn't love that. A++ all the way around. Highly recommended for both men and women. read more

Really nice salon with the bonus of being next to Common Market! Ashley was my stylist and did a great job of taking me from a medium brown to a blonde! Michelle was also great with waxing services. Grab a drink and get a new style!! read more

Laney cut and colored my hair. She listened to what I was looking for and followed through. The lighting in the studio isn't great. That is about the only negative thing I could say. I love my hair and my husband says it makes me look 10 years younger! read more

I have been going to KM & Company for years. I am always extremely happy with the results. Lanie is awesome! This past week they went beyond my expectations when Lanie was unavailable. Kelly, Karla, and Christina all worked to make sure that all my hair care needs were met! I do not know of any other business that would do this for a customer. By the way, I drive 45 miles to have my hair cut! That in itself should say something! read more

Men's wavy/curly hair is often difficult to deal with. You are limited to a select few styles that are often outside the current trends. Christina has performed a magic trick. She set out to make me happy and confident in my hair style and has delivered! Although it's been a 3 month process of growing out and taming my hair I am ecstatic with the results. She is patient, descriptive, helpful, and really friendly showing me techniques that I can use at home to look as good as when I leave her chair. At this point I will not let anyone else touch my hair. The woman is a professional I cannot say enough about her. read more

Christina is awesome, sweet and chatty is a cute and funny sort of way. She listened to my hair complaints and made suggestions and adapted a hair cut I wanted to accommodate my curly and unruly hair. During my second visit, she again adjusted my cut as requested. The hair products are also great. This is a laid back salon where all the staff are helpful and happy to help you. Oh I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the adopted bird "Bob", can't forget him,he greets guest as they walk in. :) read more

Very cute salon great location. Allison cuts my hair she is amazing and soo sweet! Her work is very meticulous and I always appreciate her eye to details. I highly recommend her and she is worth the follow! read more

If you're looking for a competent, seasoned professional stylist to cut, color and style your hair, you have finally found "the" place!!! It's right next to the Common Market in South End - super cool location - the place looks like it's carved right out of Manhattan - brick walls, great lighting, wood floors and high ceilings - loft style - and the stylists know what they are doing!!! I've seen all kinds of customer's young guys, business men, wedding parties, young ladies and woman of all ages. This salon does it all - and I've been a repeat customer for years. Lanie is my stylist and there is not a more competent or gifted colorist and designer that I have ever experienced. You walk in feeling eh okay, kinda bleh, you walk out feeling like a million bucks - like a shot of espresso or two for the ego, I call it a self esteem booster!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND - YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! read more
