Stylist who cut and colored my hair did a fine job with the color. I would suggest additional training to become more comfortable and experienced with cutting and styling.

Just happened to be in the area and had a "free" day so decided to get my hair cut. I found this salon on Yelp and decided to run with it. I called and made an appointment with Melissa and it was the best decision I could have made! The salon is precisely what you would expect (and more) for Charleston. It's adorable and neat as a pin. I have long and extremely thick hair so it's really a job to manage it. Melissa washed cut and blew out my hair and the result was terrific. To top it off, she braided it to help a little with the sweltering heat & humidity the Charleston area is famous for. She took her time and kept checking to make sure it would turn out exactly as I requested. She did not leave me waiting in her chair to begin and never left to answer the phone or do anything else as I've experienced at other salons. Even though I was a complete stranger, she was so kind, warm and genuinely intent on making me happy, I felt like I had been a client for the last ten years by the time I walked out. I really don't think you could ask for any more from the experience I had especially considering it started as a random choice. There were two other ladies cutting hair (Only 3 chairs that I saw) so it's a small salon but all three chairs were full. I can only speak for Melissa and honestly could not recommend her or the salon any higher. I am not a big "reviewer" but Melissa and the salon deserve this because it's clear they both work overtime to make sure their customers are happy (which is rare these days). My only complaint is that I do not live closer but I will make time to return when I can!

Excellent service. Monet took great care of me and even spoiled me with a scalp massage while shampooing. Absolutely love my new color and hair cut. They even offer you beverages including a selection of wine to help you unwind after a stressful day. Highly recommend!!!

My first, and last visit, to this salon!! I Called the day before to make an appointment (and my stylist name is Melissa) and I was very honest and up front that I was a bit selective and picky with my hair and who cuts my hair....The receptionist answering the phone assured me that the stylist that she books me with for the following day was good and well experienced (found out during my haircut that she, Melissa is my stylist name, only had a few years experience) with that said I was letting my hair grow for the past year and a half, she did NOT listen to me at all and chopped off 2 inches or more all over even after letting her know that I was letting my hair grow and to please only give me a trim! Not only did she chop most of the length off the top of my hair (where I was mainly letting it grow) she chopped up the sides and back in the process! I let her know that I was not pleased and asked her if she could correct a couple of places and she only made it worst! Time to check out.... She charges me 30.00 for the cut (which is fine had she fixed her mistakes) another stylist in the salon walks over bc she overheard my dissatisfaction earlier and She whispers to my stylist to credit me back the money bc she knew I was not satisfied!!! Someone in that salon could have fixed the BOTCHED cut but instead I left frustrated, confused, and pissed only to go down the road and find another salon and another stylist to fix the botched hair cut!!! After receiving a very nice phone call (from the owner) I now know that each stylist rents a space in this particular salon. My advice to you is if you're looking for a great men's cut and are selective then do not book with Melissa. Signed: Beyond Frustrated

Not impressed with their customer service. I've been looking for a salon in West Ashley for a cut, color, & style. I read the reviews and even spoke to a few neighbors about this salon. I was sick and tired of going to independent stylists who charged an arm and a leg. I called in and I was disappointed with the way they handled my call which in turn showed me this is not a salon I will give business to. I spoke with someone who was not welcoming nor did they seem excited to have a potential new client. First impressions are everything. I asked how much a haircut would be since salons typically do not give price quotes over the phone being everyone has diff length hair. She asked if she could call me back in 10 minutes to give the availability of me coming in for a consultation. Hours went by and I never got a call back until maybe 4 hours later. I'm sorry, but that's not the way to run a business. Don't want to sound bitter or like a pain here, but typically this is what salon receptionists are for so the stylists don't have to stop what they're doing to answer the phone. Just on my phone call alone, I will not be giving this salon my business.

I went to the younger lady and she was so lovely and a wonderful person but absolute worst blow dry of my life. I thought that I got a good haircut, despite trying to get her to dry my roots first so that we wouldn't need a whole hour to dry my hair. I have fine delicate but slightly thick hair that she spent forever drying because she refused to dry my roots and kept saying how long it was taking and how damp my hair was (listen to your clients for gods sake). She had no strength, no tension in her hands and it felt like a child was playing with my hair while I was slowly getting cold and damp because my roots were still damp for a whole hour of fooling around. That's not even the worst part because I thought I had a decent haircut until I got home and moved my center part off center only a couple centimeters... I asked for my long grown out bangs to be trimmed to jaw/chin length and instead I got actual bangs (I didn't want bangs I just wanted some face framing from my natural very long grown out old bangs JUST UNDER MY JAW (no bangs in photo because I'm already embarrassed enough to be making this review. I just straightened my hair and split it half and half and I have started crying again at how there's several different lengths and my beautiful hair is butchered. Even though it's shiny and needed all that cut, the way it was butchered affects the way the hair strands lay. They offered to fix it but how could I ever trust anyone in that building with a sharp object again? Why would I lose even more length and force myself to have even more bangs and be even farther from what I want? No. I will cry until I dont feel like it anymore and I'm lucky that this is the worst haircut that I've ever had. Maybe she was distracted or maybe I talked her ear off. Nothing is pretty about this haircut except the fact that my hair is just a regular kind of pretty. It's been hacked and here's the picture to prove it. The kindness and hospitality was like any salon that wants to keep business, pretty good but nothing to write about.

I don't even know where to start...I moved here from DC and I have been looking for a new hair spot. I drove past this adorable hair studio about 100 times and then decided to call...first of all, the owner alone won me over with her wonderfully warm and inviting customer service in the phone, then she introduced me to this wonderful Stylist named Melissa who took her time to make my highlights ABSOLUTELY PERFECT! She was so wonderful that I have already made my next apt...I would give them 1000 stars if possible, this is a MUST go if you live in Charleston .

Charleston Hair Studio is AMAZING!!! I had my hair done this weekend by Theresa for the second time and she does such a great job! She really listens to what you want and does whatever she can to make it happen. My hair turned out fantastic!!! She'll also make you feel right at home like you've known her for years. And the salon is so cute! I would definitely recommend this salon and any of the girls there!

Love this salon. Love the client hand sanitizing station. Love the fact that each stylist has their own sanitizing station. Love that, even though the stylists are adequately spaced for social distancing, you can still talk with everyone in the salon. Teresa, the owner, has really gone above and beyond to make everyone feel welcome and, most importantly, safe in her salon. Would never think of going anywhere else for styling services!!!!!!!
