We recently moved to Black Mountain and I had to find a new hair stylist. I read the great reviews…read moreabout Kathy and booked an appointment and Wow am I glad I did. She did a great job on my hair and I enjoyed her sweet salon and the natural products she uses. I thought I would have a hard time finding a stylist that I liked as much as the one I left back home (after 15 years) but was lucky enough to find Kathy!

Ugh! You want dred locks? Because that's what you have!" She apparently hates long, curly hair and wants to rid the world of it. Now it will be two years to get back to where I was. Traumatic! P.S. I did not have deed locks, but I did need a trim. Just not 8"-12" off!

Leah did a great job! Literally the best haircut I have ever had! Leah really listened to me and…read moremade sure that I got what I wanted and even surpassed what I hoped for. I have long hair and other stylists I have gone to would only give me layers at the bottom, but not Leah! She took the time to listen and understand what I wanted and even offered advice and options for different facial framing and bangs that were suited to my face and type of hair. Then she worked her magic and I couldn't be more pleased! As soon as we were done and I saw what she did, I had to ask her to send me pictures so that I could show my mom who has been sick of hearing me cry and complain after every haircut, but not this one! She was so impressed that now she wants to get her haircut by Leah, as well! Also, the salon itself is quite nice. Good atmosphere; clean; everyone was wearing masks and practicing Covid-safety. Highly recommend this place and, especially, this stylist.

Horrible, Meagan! Shame on you for ruining hair!!!!…read moreIn response to my complaint, she said. "Maybe you need help with learning how to style your hair." That was a patronizing way to not take accountability or responsibility for an extremely bad service that was provided. Maybe part of her issue is that her mother brought her 9 year-old son to the appointment to wait at the salon for Meagan to finish my app. He could not stop saying, "Why can't we go home now?" during my entire appointment!!!!! That is not an appropriate salon setting. What woman books a hair appointment and pays over $200 for a service and has to listen to a 9 year old complain the entire time???!!!! So unprofessional.

I read reviews from Yelp and Google and decided I had gone long enough, I had to make the jump. I am so happy I did with A New Self Imagine. Of course I forgot the paper my previous stylist wrote out for me with the information on my color. But Danielle did such an amazing job and got the color right without it. She was very friendly and set me completely at ease from the moment I walked in. She cut my hair exactly how it needed to be cut to look good with minimal effort and blended the color in so that it looks natural. I am so excited to have found my new stylist in Black Mountain.
