Sharon...you outdid even your last ultra- fantastic cut (I guess you decided that the Pic I showed you of that actor's styling was not up to your standards...unbelievable) ...From this cut today, I 've scaled conservatively at a 15/10 (forget about 5/5...lol). RE I colored it all over...just now...and am now very pleasantly "shocked...." (am a bit of an OCD perfectionist myself...so "it takes one to know one...;" LOL...happy holidays...). as for the 'Vibe...' that Yelp requires...i -(at a priority level 9/10) needed my hair styled by you... "Picasso of a stylist.." (RE .am orig a New Yorker...) but anyway your 'Vibe' was 11/10 too...lol and for anyone considering joining this salon...well this lady Picasso will happily mentor you... I am sure...

Went in for a consultation and ended up getting everything done that day! Tanya was AMAZING!!!! She gave me the best cut and color I have ever had and my confidence has gone through the roof. The environment is amazing, the care and effort, and the prices. I will 100% go back. I've never gotten bangs i've loved until NOW, never got a color that looks so natural and shiny until now. Honestly can't rave about this place enough .

Went because I had saw good things on reviews. Was greeted friendly and agreed about money pieces…read moreand some framing to be done. 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.

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).
