    Alli was amazing! I'm always nervous to have my hair done but she did excellent. I didn't even know exactly what I wanted but she helped me figure it out. I'll definitely be back for color sometime in the future! I also love the online booking, I am not one for phone calls and it made it so easy to get an appointment.

    I've had my hair cut and colored by the owner of Swank for over 10 years. Whenever anyone mentions wanting their hair colored, I immediately recommend Swank and the owner. She is simply the best. She is incredibly knowledgeable and talented in every regard and technique for hair color. Her work seems like magic. I receive endless compliments on my hair and I always say, it has nothing to do with me and everything to do with my insanely talented hairstylist. I've taken my elementary aged daughter to Swank to have her hair cut by another stylist, and they were wonderful with her and did an amazing job. She felt beautiful and special having her hair cut at the salon her mom goes to! I've sat in a chair at Swank for hours upon hours over the years and I can say with absolute confidence that it is a wonderful salon, great atmosphere/vibe with incredibly talented and kind hairstylists and staff, led by their amazing owner. I have seen countless gorgeous haircuts and color while getting my own hair done. I cannot recommend Swank enough. It's the best in Pittsburgh. You won't be disappointed! (I've included some photos of my hair from over the years).

    Jacqueline took care of me. Her service was exceptional. Thank you I'll be back. I appreciate your business!

    Balayage

    Went for a haircut first but was so impressed that I went in again for a balayage. The balayage was beautifully done by Allie. It was my first time getting my hair colored and was nervous about it. But the results were amazing and I highly recommend it.

    ONLY THE BEST work at swank! I made my appointment with Keli shortly after my normal stylist retired. My hair takes forever to lift and I have a lot of it. Before the appointment, I made sure keli knew she had a whole lotta work to do. Most people who have worked on my hair, take short cuts and I never end up 100% happy. Keli instantly made me feel like I was in good hands! Not only did she give me the exact outcome I wanted but I was out of there MUCH faster than previous salons. Not to mention, I'd spend 3 hours with Keli any time! She was so kind, sweet and made me feel like a friend. I hate toxic salon environments but this place was truly so warm and welcoming. All of the stylist worked together and it was so nice to be in a healthy/safe environment free from catty hair stylists. I loved getting SWANKED and I loved Keli even more!

    Gorgeous cut, color, and style by Grace!

    Go see GRACE!! I've been going to her for nearly 5 years, and she never fails to make my hair look incredible. Whether that's taking it blonde (safely, with time), doing a funky color, or doing something really natural (as seen below), Grace keeps my hair integrity healthy -- and shes SUPER talented! She's quick and efficient, but doesn't miss details and is willing to make sure I LOVE my style before I go. And she's a true ARTIST. I totally feel comfortable letting her creative juices flow -- it always turns out even better than I was picturing. I can't say enough about her :) This salon is gorgeous too -- modern and clean and bright, and right across the street for an incredible coffee shop. You do have street parking since it's in Lawrenceville, but it's on the quieter upper side of the town, and I usually don't have a problem finding a spot. Definitely book her! Her spots fill FAST!

    I'd been going to the same hair stylist for almost 10 years! While I loved her, I recently took a job in Pittsburgh and felt so stressed about finding someone new. Through Instagram I found Shannon at Swann and I cannot day enough good things about her. First - the atmosphere is the perfect Lawrenceville, urban, chic loft feel. You'll be greeted upon arrival and take to your chair within a few minutes. The chairs are so comfortable! You may be so relaxed you fall asleep. Second - Shannon talked with me about my past hair experiences (good and bad). I felt like she really took time to understand me and help me understand what I was looking for. She's super sweet and social and will make sure you have everything you need. My favorite thing was how she made sure to check in with me at each step to let me know what she was doing next and explaining how it fit into our plan. I left very happy with my hair. Last - Swank is reasonably priced. They stylists do great work and are super accommodating. I am looking forward to going back in the future!

    WOW! So usually I only write reviews if I have a horrible or awesome experience. Luckily this was the latter! I haven't salon dyed my hair in years but with my wedding approaching I wanted to even out a yellow blonde box color, and get some dimension. I'm new to Pittsburgh so I did some searching and saw a bunch of good reviews for blondes and balayage through swank. I decided to go for it and am SO glad I did. I was able to get in with Shannon. She listened to exactly what I wanted, and was so receptive. The salon itself is lovely and there's free street parking with plenty available. I already have my second appointment booked! HIGHLY recommend. First picture is what I showed her and the others is what I got. Dead on!

    The shop owner Melissa is always praising her staff, she should be a conference leader in how to be a power boss.

    Saw this place on Yelp nearby and had to walk in. My bf and I are from out of town, so we came…read morewithout an appointment & we were pretty close/walking distance to some of the hotels nearby. Entrance/storefront is a little hard to find but not impossible (go through the lobby). I really appreciated the cold water and overall ambiance of the place. It's giving luxurious IG salon & reminds me of LA without the crazy price tags. Service: ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Taylor helped me out with a cut and color, it turned out so cute. I especially loved the consultation and how thorough it was. Taylor was meticulous about figuring out what I want (bless her, I'm so indecisive) but also making sure my layers were blended/even. She just has such a wonderful energy/aura, I've decided we're besties now. Jokes aside, we're pleasantly surprised at what a gem of a salon we found, because they really do mean all hair types (we both have straight Asian hair). It's usually kind of hard to find a place that does both men & women's hair well but Cultural Hair Lounge really showed out! Not only are the staff friendly and accommodating, they really know what they're doing and have no problem showing off their artistries. Just wish they offered waxing/threading eyebrow services. Overall, we're excited to go home with new hair do's and appreciate having such a great first time experience in a new city. Thanks y'all :)

    5 stars only. Awesome people, precision cuts and great vibes. Only place you should be trusting…read morewith your hair!
