Island Styles Hair Salon

If you have long hair, there is no one else to go to other than Lynette! You can go in confidence, trust her judgement for your color and length and leave looking fabulous! She is truly the queen of color and long hair. Thank you Lynette! more

I have been to those salons where they look at you like you dont belong and make you feel uncomfortable the entire time you are there , like you should have dressed like you were going out clubbing in order to walk in the door, but at island styles, it is a great atmosphere. The people are a joy to be around and as someone who has gone from having short hair to growing it out, I could not have done it without Sharon. every expierience has wonderful. more

A friend of mine recommended Island Styles to me and I am so glad I went!! They did a fantastic job on my cut and color and now have a new client! I will tell everyone I know this is the place to go! more

I am very picky about my hair and have a very difficult style that requires extreme precision. I have been going to Island Styles for many years now and I will not go anywhere else. No one can cut my hair the way Sharon does. She is always consistently wonderful! I love the comfort of the salon and how everyone there always makes you feel at home, unlike so many other salons in Savannah that are down right snooty. Island Styles is always very accomodating and I leave there uplifted and feeling beautiful. more

Got my hair butchered!!! It was like walking into Steel Magnolia's. It was super tiny and old fashioned. A much older woman cut my hair and I should have walked right out before talking to the woman at the counter. I asked for an inch or so cut off the length and several inches were cut off instead. Bangs??? Forget it...she didn't know how to cut them! You're NEVER supposed to cut them straight across and that's what she did...she messed them up big time and didn't even cut them straight! I have naturally wavy hair and she made me look like a poodle. Do yourself a favor...pay the extra money and go somewhere else to get a good haircut. more

i live part time in savannah now. i have tried other salons outside of savannah but always come back to sharon.sometime i look pretty ratty before i get back to sharon but i is always worth the wait more

i myself as a master cosmetologist & also who has worked at island styles a couple years back knows how great sharon, priscilla, and shanasy are & same with the other stylists when i come in. I swore through that no matter where i am that i would never go to anyone but sharon, and i drive all the way from Hinesville Ga now jst to get my hair done, and trust me i wouldnt have it any other way! i love my sharon!!! KAI NGO! more

I recently had the pleasure of having my hair colored and cut by Lynnette. What a gem! She made time in her busy schedule to get me in (I was going out of town on business.) This was a Saturday, normally the shop is closed! She did a fantastic job on my color and cut. She knows her business. I had soooo many compliments. When I returned, she cut my bangs. We had talked about a fringe, angled, feathery fun bangs. What I got was perfect. But she didn't stop there. She french braided my hair because I was going to be working outside. (I didn't ask - she is just that sweet!) If you need a great shop. Try the jewel of the island. I don't think there is a bad stylist in the bunch! more

I've been going to Sharon for ten years now and her knowledge about color is fabulous! My hair always looks fantastic and she isn't afraid when I ask her to ""step out of the box"" when I asked for bright or different colors. When cutting my hair, she knows what style will work with the shape of my face. Sharon is all around a fantastic hair stylist. more

Back in December, after a very long and tiring week at work, I decided to treat myself to a blow out about an hour before I was to attend a Christmas party. My husband gets his hair cut by Shanassy at Island Styles, so I decided to ""walk in"" to see if by chance, anyone was available for a blow out. August ,with his signature mohawk and smile, greeted me and within minutes I was relaxing with a shampoo that was better than some massages I have had. I walked out an awesome blow out and something I did not expect...a peaceful, calm, soothed feeling. Because of his endearing spirit and great blow out, I decided to come back soon after the blow out for a cut. I had been going to a salon downtown for years and had gotten tired of the time it takes to drive and park, just to get my hair done. My cut went great and once again I left feeling like I had a session of yoga or meditation. After commenting on a coworker's gorgeous highlights and asking who her stylist was,(August Alderman, of course), I decided to give highlights another shot. I soon found out that August is as wonderful at highlights as he is at cutting. Even my mother, who has never been fond of my hair when it is highlighted commented ""I like the way he did your highlights!"" August is a genius with hair and has such a warm, caring spirit. I told the owner of the salon that I felt like I have finally met my hair stylist ""soul mate' when I met August! Pros: Calming and Soothing + He does good hair! more

Shanasy has been cutting my hair for 10 years now! I am always that client that comes in and says, ""Shanasy, please do something different with me hair!"" I always walk out of her salon looking great and loving my hair. I have recommended all of my friends and family to her, as I know she will make them look and feel just as stylish as I do when I leave. more

Shanasy has been coloring and cutting my hair for about 8 years. I always bring in a picture of the latest style and she nails it everytime! I moved out of state back in 2006 and the whole year I was gone I drove six hours to get to Shanasy!! more

I've been going to Sharon for almost 9yrs now. She is sweet, accomodating, friendly, professional and all-around the best. I am horrible at judging looks for my hair and even worse at styling it. She has consistently found, with gentle suggestions, the best way to cut and style it, all the time considering my hair-handicaps! She is never pushy but always honest. I've never been disappointed when I've left her salon. Her abilities as a stylist and her character in general have earned my respect and loyalty. more

Shanasy has been a friend of mine and taken care of my hair for over 9 years. When she was out Sharon took care of me. Love them! They are great and I wouldn't trust anyone else with my hair! Pros: Comfortable and friendly. Stylish! more

I've been going to Shanasy for several years now. There has never been a time I've been unhappy with her service. Shanasy is very professional and laid back. She listens to your needs and does not pressure you into doing anything you don't want. I also look forward to chatting with her every time I go in. She is dependable and honest. I totally recommend Shanasy for all your hair needs. Pros: Great Hair Cut and Highlights more

I have been a patron of this salon for the past five years. I have very thick, coarse, naturally curly hair which is prematurely gray and resistant to color. Sharon, who owns the Salon, knows how to work with naturally curly hair and is a master colorist. I have gone from hating my hair to actually liking it. I now receive compliments about my hair from complete strangers. Additionally, I always relax and have fun while I am there. Sharon and the other stylists in her salon are skilled professionals and nice people who make you feel at home. I highly recommend this salon. Pros: friendly, fun and reasonably priced more

I finally have the cut and color I've always wanted! All it took was one visit with August Alderman. He has a natural talent and will help you look your best. Make an appointment today! Pros: Great experience more

This little, hidden local hair salon is the best for color, cut, and understanding what you want. My hair was destroyed by 'a posh downtown salon' - it was unevenly cut and the highlights were turning green. My mom referred me here, and once I walked in all of the stylsits took their time to look at my damaged hair and pictures of what my hair used to look like. August Alderman was my stylist, and before the resalvaging process he made sure to know exactly what I wanted before he started. August corrected my color and cut, and it is exactly what I wanted. Should have come to him the first go around and not listen to what The South Mag thinks is best. Pros: Professional, friendly, and experienced staff! Cons: None come to mind more

OMG, August is H A W T..... Pros: Friendly, Caring, Unpretentious, Skilled Cons: The best parking spots are handicapped spaces more
