Fresh Salon

I have been looking for a colorist since I relocated here in March, and finally, after trying different salons, I found Regina! She is awesome! Everyone at fresh makes me feel so welcome...great group of people! Regina really knows what she's doing and listens and gives great feedback so that you will make the right decisions. I highly recommend Fresh and Regina to everyone! more

This is just a GREAT salon. Everyone that works at Fresh is as friendly as can be. Sean Foley is amazing. I finally decided to cut all my hair short and really go for a completly new look. Sean took the time to understand what I do for a living so he could make sure the cut he gave would be good for my profession but he also spent time asking me questions about my life outside of work: what I like, what fashion trends I like, etc. The cut he gave me is perfect and SO precise. My hair is very thick and Sean spent the time to really work the cut so it would be easy to style. Best of all, he showed me exactly what to do so I could style my hair on my own. He is just awesome! more

Regina rocks! My colorist moved to D.C. last spring and I was very apprehensive about trying to find a new salon and color professional... I went to Fresh on my friend's recommendation and have never looked back! Regina (unlike other stylists) listens and makes sure she's on the same page as you and always gives great suggestions making me look great (and natural) every time I leave! I have very thick, long, difficult-to-color, course hair so that’s saying a lot. There is no better place to make a color change than in Regina’s chair at Fresh. more

I'm new to Charlotte, so I hadn't yet found my "salon". I'd been to one a couple of months ago, but didn't really like it. Today, I found my new salon. Regina did an awesome job with my color. I brought her a picture of myself with the hair color I wanted. She was very up-front in telling me what was a realistic expectation. I was not going to be able to go as light as I was in the picture. She got me as close as you can get. Beautiful red, perfect highlights! Then Dustin trimmed my hair. Wonderful! He listened to me and asked me what I wanted. I have curly hair and wanted to blow dry it straight. He didn't go straight for the hair iron. He asked if I wanted stick straight or straight with movement. There's a choice?!? We did straight with movement. My husband said it's the best he's ever seen my hair straight. The salon is bright and beautiful. Everyone is friendly. I could not have had a better experience. more

I just moved to Charlotte and was looking for a new hairdresser and ran into Sean Foley who invited me to his salon for a cut. I have curly hair and straight bangs - and most hairdressers I've been to either cut the bangs wrong so that they don't stay straight or don't know how to work with curls. Sean was able to cut my hair so that my bangs fall straight every time and my curls have more lift. He took the time to listen to what I wanted, and offered his expertise. He has also worked as an Aveda Instructor so you know he's good. I highly recommend seeing Sean. I wouldn't go anywhere else after this cut. more

Dustin cut and styled my daughter's and my hair. The best. We both will continue to use him. Thanks Dustin. The rest of the staff and owners were also terrific and very professional also. more

I recently had my hair colored and high-lighted by Regina Rueda. She did a fabulous job! I have had so many compliments because of her work. Regina listened to what I wanted and exceeded my expectations .I highly recommend her! more

I recently had an appointment at Fresh Salon with Regina Rueda and she did a wonderful job! She not only gave me a fantastic cut but the color and highlights were exactly what I had requested! She made my first experience with the salon a great one! She is fabulous! I would recommend her to anyone! more

I've been a chronic "salon hopper" for years. Not because I'm hard to please, but because it was so hard to find a place that left me excited about my experience. Let me just say, my search for the perfect salon is over. After a lot of research, I decided to give Fresh a try, even though it's a 40 min drive from my house. TOTALLY worth the drive! Jen did my highlights and did an amazing job. Amanda did my cut, and I've never been happier. My husband keeps telling me how hot I look. lol. Everyone there was incredibly sweet and friendly, and I didn't have to take out a loan just to afford my hair! Great prices and AWESOME results. Fyi, the products they use are not a waste of $$. I'm always skeptical when stylists try to upsale me on product. This stuff (Arrojo... remember him from TLC?) is definitely a good buy. Finally found my salon! Thanks to Fresh for a great experience and some much needed mommy-time. :) more

I love coming to Fresh! And what an appropriate name! I feel FRESH when I'm there and FRESH when I leave. The staff is great and I don't wanna go anywhere else! more

I stopped by without an appointment for a quick haircut and was treated like a regualr client that they see on a regular basis. Let me also say they will be seeing me soon for root touch ups and a new color! more

A #1 Colorist! Adrena at Fresh has been high lighting my hair for years and I have never been disappointed! Her consistency is amazing and my hair always looks natural. No more looks perfect one visit and then the next average. I am very particular about my color and would not hesitate to change Colorists if my hair did not look great. I get highlights and low lights and the color she choose for me was right on. I get so many compliments on my hair hich feels really good when you are in your 50's! Do not hesitate to go to Adrena-you will be hooked for life!!! more

Like one of the other reviewers, I, too, am a bit of a "hair snob", especially when it comes to getting the color, highlights, and cut just right. My hair is somewhat unruly in that it has a lot of natural curl and takes a stylist with real talent (and patience!) to get the cut how I like it. In addition, being a dark brunette, getting the highlights to look nice also takes a rea lartist. Fortunately, I finally found all of that artisitic talent I longed for in Amanda and Adrena at Fresh Salon. In fact, I call them the "A-team" because Amanda cuts and styles my hair better than anyone I've ever been to and Adrena is the best colorist I've found in this town. And I should know, being a Charlotte native, I've naturally been to dozens of salons over the years and finally lucked up with finding both of them under the same roof called Fresh Salon - an uncommon blend of uniqueness and simplicity with an open and airy atmosphere, chic decor with relaxing colors, and super-friendly staff who make you feel right at home. I could go on and on about Adrena and Amanda, but all you need to know is: they are very professional; warm and kind, up-to-date on the latest styles and techniques; and most importantly, they listen to what you want and deliver satisfaction at reasonable prices. What more could you ask for? A great location? Yes, the location is premo - just off Providence Rd. at I-485, very convenient. So, do yourself a favor and take it from a self-proclaimed "hair snob" - give Fresh Salon a try. I guarentee you'll be glad you did!! (Many thanks to Amanda and Adrena - you're the best!) G.

I admit that I am a snob when it comes to my haircuts. I have a ton of long, thick hair and I need someone who knows what they are doing. I was going to the same, high end stylist in Chicago for almost 10 years. Then we moved to Charlotte. For hours I researched a new stylist via the web and friends. I was impressed with the reviews that I saw for Nikki. I also admit that I have only gone to men to cut my hair. I was always told that male stylists will "tell you the truth." But, I was willing to give Nikki a try. I walked in the salon and was pleased with the color and decor on the walls, the music playing, the warm reception, and the short wait time. Nikki greeted me with a smile and got to work right away asking questions on what I was looking for in a style. I have to tell you, it's the best cut I've ever gotten. I used to pay over $100 for a cut, and Nikki's cut beats my old stylist, hands down. She gave me the right cut for my face, and didn't just do what I thought I wanted. She gave me some ideas and asked if that met with my approval. For your ladies that have had children and have lost the "life" in your hair, the cut Nikki does, in addition to the oil product she uses, makes your hair shine and feel so soft. If feels just like it did before I had babies. I can't say enough about her. Start with her now before she's so busy, you can't get in to see her. In addition, I was looking at the cuts of the other stylists walking out of Fresh Salon while I was there, and was equally impressed with them as well. I don't think you would go wrong with anyone there. This is a new salon that is sure to catch on and grow fast. Nikki, you're amazing. As long as I'm in Charlotte, you have me as a client. Pros: Talented stylist, warm atmosphere, reasonably priced Cons: None more

I recently visited Fresh and had an incredible experience! From the minute I walked in, I was greeted with smiles from their receptionists, and I was offered something to drink and within minutes I was in the chair ready to go! My stylist did a FANTASTIC job! She cut my hair PERFECT and was so SWEET! The atmosphere at Fresh is unlike any other salon! FRESH is definitely the right word to describe it! It is beautifully designed with bright colors, FRESH flowers, and they play some great music! I honestly felt at home!...On my way out, the receptionists asked about my experience, and they made me feel like they really cared about how it went, all of them were very professional and SO sweet! I cant wait till my hair grows just so I can visit Fresh again! :-D more

I have been a customer for about a year now and I love this salon. Not only is it a beautifully designed salon, but the staff is courteous and professional and I always walk out with a great color and/or cut. Kudos to Amanda my stylist and Julia for brilliant color! Pros: professional, great service more

Stylist and staff super! Great ambience and service. more

This salon is full of friendly people...from the receptionists to the stylists (especially my stylist...NIKKI....can't say ENOUGH good things about her!!!) Nikki listens to what I want, cuts exactly what I ask, or has suggestions when I don't know exactly what I want...but, no matter what I always leave the salon happy!!! Definitely recommend this salon!!! Pros: NIKKI....the best hair stylist in the world!!! Cons: NONE more

I've lived in Charlotte for 17 years, and am only sorry that it has taken me this long to find someone who cuts my hair as well as Nikki! She came highly recommended by a great friend whose haircuts I've always admired. Usually it takes a stylist several cuts to get something that I'm happy with, but Nikki did an amazing job the first time she cut my hair! I am also very appreciative of her recommendation of the Sebastian Drench shampoo and conditioner - they have made SUCH a difference in the texture of my hair. I HIGHLY recommend Nikki and Fresh Salon! Pros: best cut I've ever had! more

I'm a 21 year old guy and I go to Fresh Salon. That's right, I said it. It's great. It's bright, open and very clean. Ask for Veronica. She's been cutting my hair for a while and she always gets it RIGHT! She keeps things fresh...just like the Salon. I like it because I can EXACTLY what I want at a great price AND get the stuff to do my hair at home all right there. You know you're in a cool place when they check you in on an iMac. -Daniel Pros: Bright, fun cool place more
