    I have never left a salon so happy!! Filled with love. I walked in, they offered me wine, and as I waited (because I was early) I INSTANTLY fell in love with the way they handled their business. They made me feel accepted and embraced and enlightened immediately. It was an environment where the actual humans felt free enough to "Not give AF", but 100% give AF about you, your hair, and the way you felt. As long as I live in the area, I will never go anywhere else. Thank you all, and especially Eric. Much love my new friends! Thank you for being you! Haircut 1000. Period. Go.

    Salon Provera was recommended to me by a friend of mine and a few weeks ago, I scheduled a haircut with Eric. The haircut was long overdue - I hadn't gotten my hair done in over four years. Eric understood right away what that meant and was very attentive to me and my requests. He was communicative with me from start to finish and even walked me through how to style my new cut at home (which I deeply appreciated)! Eric was a great conversationalist and an even better stylist. I was thrilled with the results then and weeks later am still loving it. Thank you for taking great care of me!

    Katie did my haircut. I was a little disappointed that she didn't really give me much of a consult. Also a little disappointed that she didn't give me a full shampoo (I felt when I left my hair looked and felt greasy still). I am sure it was because I did point out to her that my hair had been shedding a lot lately but still. I would have rather had a wash and slipped on the brush blow dry since I felt that was more unhealthy for my hair. Overall she did what I asked and gave me a good haircut with layers.

    This salon is the best kept secret in Durham.... but it would be selfish not to share this with others! The service is excellent, well-priced and Skye has an incredible knowledge base of how to care for and maintain your style. I left feeling confident and reassured of my choice. This is the best hair cut I've gotten, hands down, and I've been to MANY places over the years that have ruined my hair.

    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.
