I was so grateful to my stylist Rylee for fitting me in! For some reason my appointment was never scheduled even though I was told it has been, (wasn’t Rylee who scheduled it), but she was so kind to cut my hair anyway. She did a wonderful job and I wish her the best!

Went to see Raven yesterday for makeup for a photo shoot and she did a fantastic job! I’m a little more “high maintenance” client and she listened to my suggestions, offered great input, and my makeup looked beautiful! Highly recommend her! ❤️NOTE TO CLIENTS: They use MAC PRODUCTS. I got lucky that she had one vegan foundation on hand that matched my skin tone, but most women (older than 25 or 30) have sensitive skin and can’t use MAC. (I got a a bad rash from them one time.) You may want to bring your own foundation if you are sensitive to skincare.NOTE TO OWNER: Please carry a more hypoallergenic, skin friendly line, (vegan would be nice, but at the very least non -comedogenic/hypoallergenic) because when I come back, I will have to bring my own foundation. That is unacceptable for a makeup service and you need to cater your products to ALL SKIN TONES and ALL AGE RANGES and ALL CLIENTs not just students at Penn State or people with “normal” skin. It started my experience on the “wrong” foot and I almost drove home to grab my foundation. That’s how bad my reaction was to MAC the last time I used it. Plus, there are so many wonderful skin lines out there that are skin friendly. This is NOT acceptable, but was not reflective of my experience with Raven and my makeup as she is fantastic!Service: Makeup services

Haircare provided at Evolve Studio is absolutely outstanding! Raven and Olivia took the time and effort to give me a the hairstyle I was aiming for and it turned out better than I could have imagined. Staff at this studio are welcoming, happy to assist with any questions or concerns, and they provide a reassuring and judgement-free atmosphere. They were able to squeeze me into their schedule on short notice and provide a high quality hair appointment. They didn’t rush through coloring or cutting my hair. I highly recommend this studio and I will definitely be returning for future hair appointments! ?Services: Hair coloring

I got a balayage at Evolve today, which I have had done previously at other salons, this being the most expensive one by far. I liked the result at first but it was really subtle but I thought it was just the lighting in the salon, but it turns out it wasn’t. It was not worth the near $200 I paid since my hair doesn’t look that different. The experience itself was good, I just upset I paid so much money for such minimal changeService: Hair coloring

Paid $60 for possibly the worst haircut of my entire life. The stylist was friendly but I didn’t get what I asked for at all. I’m not sure if it’s even remotely fixableService: Hairstyling

Great place to go to get your teenagers hair trimmed and highlighted! We had an excellent first experience here and the stylist “nailed it!” My daughter was completely satisfied with the end result. Thank you

DO NOT GO HERE, I came in for my appointment early and I wasn’t seen until 30 minutes after my appointment time. On top of that my stylist Whitney decides to tell me and the whole salon that she thought my hair was going to fight her back because of how “corse” my hair looked. Then proceeded to say out loud oh wow so soft as if she was surprised and I am not able to have soft hair. The comments were absolutely unnecessary and embarrassing she said it in front of everyone in the salon. I do not recommend if you have “corse hair” they are not diverse at all and makes you feel weird during your appointment just because you have different type of hair.Service: Hair styling

DO NOT GO HERE!!!! I went her last semester to get my already blonde hair touched up and my hair was left completely destroyed. It’s been around 6 months since i’ve been there and my hair still hasn’t recovered. I was left with bleach in my hair for an hour and so much of my hair fell out. Not to mention it was like over $200 for the worst hair service I’ve ever received. Please save your hair and money.Service: Hair colouring

I went in for a root touch up. Already platinum just needed my roots done. I got my hair done by Chloe, and she not only missed sections of brown hair (inches of it), but the sections she bleached and toned were still BROWN/ORANGE. She didn’t even let me know, and let me walk out like that. I went home and took a look and that’s when I seen it. Don’t trust the lighting in the salon, you can’t even tell what your hair looks like without being in the sun. I had to schedule a redo with a different stylist, Ashley, who was very sweet but the redo was not good either. My roots were still a different shade of blonde (3inches of it) and have now banded. There’s brown showing in many areas where the purple toner was slightly coating it. This is NOT a salon if you’re blonde, especially not platinum. I’ll try to get photos attached but I’m not seeing the option to add it.Update: photos uploaded. Last 3 photos are my hair currently, less than 2 weeks after being redone

Evolve Studio provided on-site services for our March wedding. They were AMAZING! We all looked fabulous and had a blast working with them. Ashley was my main point of contact and was so easy to work with. She provided a detailed schedule for my bridal party to keep everyone in line and on time. I would highly recommend utilizing them for your big day (or any day)!

I called on a Monday for a blow out on Saturday for a wedding we were going to in the area. Super easy and I was thrilled that they could get me in so quickly. The salon is super clean and is taking special precautions to make sure guests are spaced out well. The hair stylist that took care of me, Morgan, not only did such a great job with my look, but she was also one of the nicest people that I've spoken to in a while. We had such an awesome conversation (even while wearing masks). If I lived in the area, I would 100% be back here often and request her. Thank you Morgan and Evolve!

I could not have asked for a better experience with Lauren and Ashley! Through the ups and downs and many changes for our wedding, they were incredibly understanding, flexible and delivered AMAZING work. We had to change our wedding from State College to to Erie for our big day and they happily made the trip up. Not only did they knock it our of the park with our hair and makeup, but their positivity and fun energy made the experience memorable and even more special!
