    My amazing curls after Teghan showed me how to care for my hair! Thank you Teghan!
    Alexia K.

    To all my curly haired gals and guys this is the place we've been looking for! I had the absolute best time with Teghan. She was sweet and straight up at the same time. She is an expert ans told me exactly what I needed to hear. Not only did she tell me what to improve, but how to improve it. She had me feel my hair throughout the process and showed me step by step in the mirror how to style it in a realistic, every day way. She put absolutely no pressure on me buying the products but I purchased them anyway because I saw firsthand the amazing results. My hair feels lighter and healthier and softer than it has in my 25 years of life. Every single curl is beautiful and alive. Teghan saw my hairs potential and coaxed my curls out of hiding. I will definitely be back and cant wait to tell all my curly headed friends about this gem of a salon here in downtown Chattanooga.

    I have been getting my hair done at The Strand for almost two years and have loved every experience! I recommend Teghan for cut, style and color. Whatever I throw at her she is willing to do and gives great recommendations on what color would be best!

    I always use the online booking with ease. The salon is colorful and has real personality. Brooke Ann has been doing my balayage and angled bob for several months now. I adore her!

    Before when my hair was tangly, different lengths from all the dead ends, and super dry

    I'll be honest after having my worst nightmare come true at a former salon 5 years ago I was very anxious to get my hair cut and styled instead of just slightly trimmed at a great clips. However, I left Strand Salon with the biggest smile, anxiety-free, and a hairstyle I'm absolutely in love with. My stylist, Debbie, from the start made me feel welcome, thoroughly listened to what I wanted, and transformed my hair. Walking in my hair was dry, dead, and full of split ends with no shape, but I left with healthy and soft hair full of life. So thanks Debbie and I'll be back soon!

    I walked in very nervous, I'm not going to lie. It's rare that I leave a salon feeling beautiful. As soon as I walked in, I was immediately offered a beverage and directed to a beautiful seating area. While I waited, I was provided with the WiFi password as well. After less than five minutes, my stylist, Rachel, walked up and shook my hand. Once directed to her work area, which had a BEAUTIFUL refurbished vanity, we had a heart to heart about how I wanted to feel when I left the salon. Being someone that is very involved with maintaining a positive mental health, that question meant a lot to me. Once we got down to business, she sent me to the bathroom to change out of my sweater and into a provided garment so I wouldn't ruin it from coloring. Rachel listened to what I wanted and gave me EXACTLY what I wanted. Everything from the massage chair while my color processes to the amazing scalp massage while rinsing my hair was amazing. To add to that, if anyone is tender headed, this is the salon for you. I went from a blonde with a lot of hair damage to a deep brunette with silky, smooth hair. Miracles happen in this salon. Plus, the huge fiddle leaf fig and additional greenery makes the perfect touch. If you love antiques, greenery, a calm playlist, people with a good heart, and overall amazing experience, this is the salon for you. I will never go to another salon!

    I am new to the area so based on reviews I went for a haircut to this salon for the first time. The stylist I requested, the one who is popular in the reviews, did not have an appointment so I got another stylist. Based on her hesitation I figured she is relatively new in the profession. The trim was not satisfactory so I had to show her how I want my hair cut a few times. Even for thr layers I had to explain in 5 different ways how I want them cut so that they would look neat. The way she had initially trimmed them showed me no neatness in my layers. So I had to ask her to improvise. That is alright but when it came to the bangs I pointed out the length with my hand, on my face, so that there is no confusion. I wanted the bangs till middle of my face length. She literally held the bangs which were longer than my face and cut them in half, about 80% shorter than what I asked her. She apologized like a million times and I did not want to create a scene so I said it's okay. She gave me $5 off but that is not going to bring my bangs back. Every day when I go through so much trouble trying to make those stupid looking bangs a little better, I feel very irritated hence the review. I would steer clear of this salon.

    After nearly a year of searching for the right stylist, I finally found my way to The Hair Bar--and…read morewhat an experience it turned out to be. For months, I combed through Yelp, Google, Apple Maps, and Instagram like it was my second job. I wasn't just scrolling; I was studying. Styles, cuts, colors, techniques, and, most importantly, the energy each stylist projected online. Many accounts went quiet for long stretches, which made it hard to trust whether they were truly active. But The Hair Bar stood out. Their content was consistent, their work spoke volumes, and their posts carried an energy that was hard to ignore. What also drew me in was knowing who was behind the operation. This isn't just another salon--it's the baby of a dedicated owner/operator who still works the business every day. She teaches, mentors, and pours her pride into the consistency and production of happy clients. She also makes it a point to attend workshops to stay current in her field and bring fresh techniques back to her team. That kind of leadership is rare; it multiplies her impact while creating a culture of growth and artistry that you can feel the moment you step inside. Booking was simple--no hoops to jump through. A few clicks on their Instagram link, select a date, time, and stylist, and I quickly received a text confirmation. We communicated easily to settle on the best time, which made the process smooth and stress-free. When I walked in, I was greeted with warmth right away. Purdy welcomed me and introduced me to Kylie, who was assisting Krystal. Kylie set the tone for an amazing experience, making me feel welcomed and cared for. Later, Purdy even jumped in to help blow dry my hair, and I loved seeing the effortless teamwork in action. It wasn't just professionalism; you could tell they genuinely enjoyed supporting one another, which gave the whole salon an uplifting, positive energy. And then there was Krystal. Her presence was everything I hoped for and more--her Instagram sparkle multiplied in person. It was my birthday month, and while I had walked in thinking I might only get a trim, I trusted her vision completely. That trust mattered, because everything I had admired on The Hair Bar's Instagram--every cut, every color, every style--was exactly what I wanted for myself. She explained how she would keep my length but add layers for movement, blend my greys while keeping the depth of my jet black, and add subtle lowlights to bring dimension and richness. She didn't just see my hair as it was--she saw what it could be. And then she delivered. From the shampoo and scalp massage to the cut, color, and finish, every step was handled with care and precision. The layers lightened my hair beautifully, the color blended seamlessly, and the lowlights gave my hair depth and life. I walked out feeling transformed, polished, and celebrated--not just because of how my hair looked, but because of the entire experience. The salon itself is stunning. Natural light pours in, giving the space an airy, open feel. The layout is clean and efficient, with modern decor that feels stylish yet welcoming. It's not cluttered or overwhelming--it's intentional, designed to make clients feel both comfortable and inspired. You can tell it's a woman-owned business, built with heart and thoughtfulness in every detail. Leaving The Hair Bar, I felt grateful I had taken my time to find them. This wasn't just another haircut; it was an experience that reminded me why trusting the right people with your hair is so important. Krystal and her team are not only talented, but they are current, collaborative, and truly invested in their craft. If you're looking for a salon that combines artistry, warmth, and professionalism, The Hair Bar is a destination worth finding. For me, it's no longer about traveling into the city--I've found my place right here.

    I came in to get my hair colored back to how it looked when I was younger. My stylist, Courtney,…read moreabsolutely KILLED it and my hair has never looked better! The staff at the salon were all so kind and encouraging! The whole environment was open and welcoming, highly recommend! This place is going to be my go to salon from now on.

She was able to give me exactly what I've been wanting with my hair, that I couldn't find with any other stylist, and I couldn't be happier to have found her! I came across her on Instagram and was simply able to schedule an appt via DM! My experience with her was super laid back and comfortable, plus she's pretty quick and her prices are extremely fair for her quality of expertise! I also loved that I was also able to pay through Venmo, which I always prefer with services like this. Oh and included with your hair service, you also get to enjoy one of their two local rotating beers on tap! (aka Tapers and TAPS!)

    Giving a one * is too kind but there were no "minus *'s available…read more I have known Caroline for years, through my daughter, and she always did a wonderful job. I made this appointment months in advance for a Gala I was traveling from FL to Chattanooga for. The morning of, I received a very brief text from Caroline telling me she was sick and had to "reschedule." No phone call, no I'm so sorry, nothing. How do you reschedule for a Gala? This was very troubling and did not sound right so I called the salon around my appointment time and she answered and was seeing clients! When I told her who it was and that I could come on now, she began whispering and used the excuse she could not get in touch with these other clients to cancel and would be leaving soon. She was talking fine and was even laughing when she answered. How unprofessional and just plain thoughtless to just cancel when obviously she was not sick enough to close up, I will never go back and do not recommend depending on someone who let outside influences determine who she sees and can cancel on you like it's nothing. Caroline, If you didn't want to do my hair for "obvious personal reasons, which are very clear," you had months to cancel and just be honest but waiting until a few hours before an important event is just wrong and heartless.
