Stephanie is AMAZING! I'm a native Charlestonian and I have been through quite a few stylist. She's got it "gifted". My hair looks better than it has in years. Go see her, you will be very pleased! read more

My good friend referred me to her hair stylist when I finally decided to put my big girl panties on and get my hair dyed. This was a big decision for me. I decided to cheat on my previous hairstylist (Emily I still love you) as I felt she wasn't going to take these golden locks where they needed to go. Well thank baby Jesus. Matthew held my hand, picked an amazing shade of red, and turned me into red head I always knew I could be. Besides Matthew being so wonderful - the actual salon was understated and nice. Nothing too over the top like some Charleston salons can be. It could probably do for an overhaul but overall nice. Check it out if you're looking to break up with your stylist or are new to the area. Bonus - you can hit chick fil a on the way home. : ) read more

I was in town for a wedding and after a few days in the Charleston heat and humidity I decided I'd better get my hair done up off my neck. So I drove around until I found a salon that would take me- London Hair- and in less than 15 minutes I had a French braid with side pony that was perfect. I had tried Salon Capelli, and they gave me a once-over and turned me away since I'm from out of town. London Hair was great - quick and I got many compliments on my braid/pony! read more

I started going to Frances DuBose, owner and stylist, of London Hair approximately 28 years ago. I had been going to another shop in another city and my hair had been permed to the absolute max and also pulled through a rubber cap for color which really damaged my hair even more! The good Lord didn't bless me with the thickest hair in the world...don't know where I was in the line when they passed out good hair! Anyway, I got an appointment with Frances and she took one look at my hair and got the scissors out! I was a scared girl because I had never worn short hair! Well, she styled it and let me tell you it was short but the only thing I could do to my hair due to the damage. It was a totally new look for me as I always had the "bubble" hair style! After getting used to the new "do" and no more perms, Frances got my hair back to a healthy state and a new younger hair style. We joke all the time about perms and I tell her she won't let me say the "P" word anymore!! Her salon is tops and so friendly and fun to go to. My stylist has turned into one of my dearest friends and I travel 75 miles every month to have her color and style my hair. She is the best colorist and knows exactly what my hair needs. All the stylists are just as talented. Her products are the best and I simply can't do without her hairspray! For someone like me with fine, thin hair her products work so well with my hair! I highly recommend this salon. Forgot to include that her shop also shows beautiful local art work and has something new all the time for view and sale. Frances keeps up with all the new styles and trends and travels all over the U.S. and Europe teaching classes on color and the art of hair cutting! She's the best!!! read more

Terrible hair salon. My hair was not done how I requested. It was much much too short and the style was anything but flattering. I was upset for days and I had to go to another salon to get it fixed. The owner was super rude and took no responsibility for her mistakes. Complete waste of money and awful experience. read more

Stephanie is awesome! I have known her & her sweet mother Miss Frances. Joey is so helpful to clients in the shop. Thank you again Stephanie. I will send you clients. So glad I was able to finally see you again & permanent. Yes, You are worth the drive. You will not be disappointed. Deborah. read more

I saw Stephanie DuBose haircutting videos on YouTube and knew I wanted her to cut my hair. Lucky for me she took me as a walk-in. All I can say is WOW. She consulted with me first, listened to what I wanted and made suggestions. I left with a fantastic cut that fits my face and lifestyle. My cut is now up to date. I already booked my next appointment with her. I highly recommend London Hair and Stephanie. read more

Frances at London Hair gave me the cut and color I've always wanted but never knew how to get it. She actually LISTENED to what I said and gave me a cut so easy for me to style and make it look good. And instead of the drab ash brown I had, she lightened up my color so it blended with my grey, and it lasts longer. She's been a godsend, better than any stylist I ever had! Thanks, girl!! read more

The owner was rude and very obnoxious... there are to many salons to choose from in this area to go there. Heaven help you if you are not thrilled with your cut/color and be prepared to pay to get it right. read more

WORST EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE! I had never cried over a hair cut and color until I went to London Hair. I've always dyed it blonde and it's always been long. So, I decided to try out London Hair because I needed a trim and my roots needed to be touched up. BAD IDEA. 1. I asked the hair dresser (Elise) to only cut about an inch off my hair. She kept bothering me about how unhealthy my hair was so I let her cut off 2 inches. However, when she finished it was more like 8 inches. To give you an idea my hair used to be just below my breast. Now, my hair doesn't even touch my breast. 2. I wanted my hair to be BLONDE. When she highlighted my hair she mostly used foils but on my hair line she just put the dye on the hair. When she rinsed off the dye you couldn't even see the hair on my hairline. A few hours later parts of my hairline had actually fallen off! On top of that she used a dark black dye in my hair as well as a few highlights. Even though I just wanted to be blonde which I thought I made clear. My hair is actually darker than my natural hair color and has a slightly grey tone (I'm only 20!) I would not recommend this salon to anyone who is under 65. I'm only 20 yet my hair looks more like my grandmothers. The price of the cut and color was way over priced especially because I actually LOST MY HAIR! I wouldn't even give this place one star. read more

Don't bother. I was desperate to get my hair done before a business trip and I was able to get an appointment with one days notice at London Hair. My appointment was at 9:45 this morning and at 10:05 someone walked into the salon and asked for Francis. The receptionist told her she wasn't there. My appointment was with Francis! I thought the woman already doing someone's hair was Francis and I was kept waiting because I was taken last minute but, no, my stylist hadn't even come in yet. I went to the receptionist and asked what was going on. She then told me Francis was in the parking lot talking to her daughter. No further explanation or apology. I asked if she didn't think that was unprofessional considering she was keeping an appointment waiting. Her reply was "not in this shop and not for Francis who has been doing hair as long as she has". Honest - those were her exact words. I asked what that meant - that's justification for being late? She then said if I didn't want to get my hair done, not to. I left. I later found out that Francis is the owner of the salon. This shop is not professional and does not care about customers. If Francis didn't want the last minute appointment, she shouldn't have scheduled it and if she had a family situation with her daughter, the receptionist should have explained or at least seem concerned that I was kept waiting. Maybe my hair would have been done well but the first impression and attitude of this shop - led by the owner!- makes me think not. read more

My wife wanted to get a cut before a vacation and a wedding we were invited to. She went to London Hair in Mount Pleasant SC and got completely butchered by the owner of the salon. And the owner was not even the one doing my wife's hair!!!! She (the owner) just intervened with the stylist who was doing the work and started cutting inches and inches off, saying: "I know what I'm doing, believe me." My wife tried to stop her, but she would have none of that. Even her own employee tried to stop her, but they were in different weight categories. You would think that it is impossible that someone would interfere for no reason at all, let alone the "professional artist", but there were many witnesses to this and to the conversation I had with the owner after the "cut". My wife cried for two days after, she could not believe that someone, supposedly professional, would blatantly disregard her wishes and instructions. After I spoke to the owner, all she could say that it was a misunderstanding and it was not her fault, she was just trying to help. read more
