He always does a beautiful job on my hair - he's been making me a natural blond for 25 years or so. Sometimes he'll text me some pictures because he's thought of a new style for me. He's also a great conversationalist and takes a sincere interest in his clients. Everyone at Salon 4 is talented and very nice. I've never seen anyone leave with a bad cut or color. I highly recommend Salon 4, especially Tony.

Great haircuts and probably the best hair salon I've been to…read more Started coming here 2 years ago and haven't switched since, before then, I've gone to hair salons ranging from $10 to $100 and I genuinely don't think anything is better than here. Paul is a great guy. Great haircuts and knows how to do more than that like perms. Most places can never do a perm right A lot of salons tend to try and speed through your cut and get to the next customer as fast as possible but Paul takes his time and puts a lot of effort into it. Couldn't recommend more

Located on High Street a short distance from Moody Street, it's a very unpretentious salon that's become one of my favorites in a short period of time. Although owner Paul Marc has taken care of my hair most times when I've been in here I could recommend anyone working behind the chairs. Recently I stopped in on a Saturday morning. I like the fact that they don't treat my visits like an assembly line - they always take enough time to make my cut look right. Prices are super reasonable and the staff is always very friendly and listens to what patrons want, or don't want, in a cut. Appointments and walk-ins are both accepted and, about the only thing I can criticize about the place is that it doesn't have its own parking lot. It's clean, the staff is professional and their work is extremely good. I will caution that it doesn't have the full range of services that one might find in extremely pretentious salons, but then again, this is a place that cuts hair, and does it better, and at better prices, than just about anywhere in the area. I'd certainly recommend it.

I followed Susanne here when she moved from another salon (8 years ago???) and love Avante because…read moreit's relaxing, you aren't in an enormous spot with dozens of people zooming by creating all sorts of distractions, etc. Susanne has been cutting my hair for about 17 years, and only twice in all that time has someone else cut my hair, which is pretty amazing considering I lived 440 miles away for 16 months. Kelly (one of the owners) was the one who cut my hair, and she knows that I like "just a trim, nothing crazy" and will even then look on the floor to make sure there isn't too much gone (of course, after it's cut, it's really too late, right?). Easy to book appointments, there is a big lot next door by the FedEx store with free parking, or lots of meters on the street.

I had an appointment for permanent hair straightening with Irma. I am happy with how my hair looks…read morebut I am not happy with the actual experience. While Irma was washing my hair out, she accidentally got the entire back of my shirt and bra soaking wet - (despite the fact I had 2 towels and the cape on). She did feel bad and apologized but when I mentioned it to the front desk, the response I got was "I'm so sorry. Unfortunately, that can happen sometimes." I cannot believe that was the response I got. For a first year cosmetology student, maybe, but for a stylist with over a decade of hair styling experience?! This should never happen at all. And the fact that this service was so expensive just makes it that much more shocking. Yes, they put my shirt in the dryer so I did have a shirt to wear when I left. But my bra was still soaking wet and again, this just shouldn't be happening when you go to get any hair service period. Second, Irma brushed and combed through my hair so aggressively and I don't understand why. She literally started at the top and ripped through my hair multiple times. I understand if she was not able to put in a leave in or detangler because that would interfere with the chemicals penetrating my hair. But I have no idea why she wouldn't at least try to be gentle and work her way from the bottom up. I just washed and blow dried my hair and I am happy with how it looks. However, the overall experience makes me question if I will come back. It makes me sad to leave this review because Irma was a very kind woman and she knows what she's doing when it comes to the hair straightening process. However, the overall experience left a lot to be desired.

Ok. How have I not reviewed Kenneth Wildes before now?!…read more I have been going here for 7 years, and am so glad I started. I used to see Shawneen, and now see Emily. I cannot say enough great things about either one of them. Both do an amazing job - I ALWAYS get compliments on my hair for WEEKS after my cuts. I put my head in their hands and trust them to style me in a way that works, and they always have. We have a great conversation, but can also sit in silence if we want. The staff is always friendly and professional, but not in a stuffy way. Things have obviously changed since the pandemic. I used to sit in the entry way while waiting, where they had a big container for water, and sometimes even snacks. Now you walk in and get taken to the sinks immediately. But I'm still always offered something to drink.

" Buyer Beware : Overpriced, Sterilization issues and Snobby "…read more I have a stylist . For years when she is on vacation or an emergency. That I cant see my stylist I have been coming here . Last time , Juan the owner did my hair . The guy is a total snob , overcharges and horrific customer service. After my experience with him . I will never come to this place again . They also Google clients . Because they mentioned something about me in conversation. That you would only know if you googled me , because of the blogs I write online . ( Not a big deal just tacky and off putting ). I did find the prices high for being a salon in the middle of nowhere . However I only come here for an emergency. So it don't bother me to much. However it's grossly overpriced. Sterilization issues : My towel was damp and he said it was from being cold. I don't find this feasible. I also didn't appreciate him using a comb he took Out from a dingy draw. Also , when a place has a small percentage of reviews for the time in business . Buyer beware , because they sometimes tell friends and family to write reviews . So the place appears better than it truly is .

I seriously hit the jackpot with Kristine! As someone with curly hair, I've been through more than…read moremy share of salon struggles--but Kristine gets it. She's a total curl whisperer who knows exactly how to bring out the best in my hair. Every visit feels like a mini glow-up! Kristine actually listens (a rare gift!), and she somehow takes my vague ideas and turns them into something even better than I imagined. Her attention to detail, care, and talent are unmatched. Yes, it's a bit of a splurge, but honestly? She's worth every cent and more. I walk out of her chair feeling fabulous, confident, and like the best version of myself. If you're looking for someone who knows their craft inside and out, and makes you feel amazing while doing it, go see Kristine!
