Alchemy Salon for blowouts

Alchemy has created a wonderful and relaxing atmosphere. The processing room is calm and quiet…and the shampoo room? Darkened, comfortable, and so relaxing. Be sure to accept the warm neck towel that was infused with peppermint oil and enjoy the relaxing shampoo process. I have had my hair done now by both David and…
I have never been satisfied with my hair until visiting Alchemy Salon! I absolutely love Alchemy Salon! Everyone is so welcoming and makes you feel comfortable from the moment you walk in. The atmosphere is beautiful, relaxing, and feels like such a little escape. My experience with the esthetician was amazing, and…
I've been going to alchemy now for 5+ years and so happy they've added an esthetician, Mea, to their team! It's one thing to have a go-to salon that super cozy and has an awesome crew but now I get to spoil myself with skincare too!
Brittney is awesome. Abigail has cut my hair before too, and she's great as well. Yohana did my blowout last time, and she was excellent. I would guess you can't go wrong with any of the stylists here, but I really love having Brittney color and cut my hair 💛🧡
This place is gorgeous and well staffed. Aby was my stylist and went above and beyond to make my experience great. She was efficient, yet thorough, and I absolutely love my cut and highlights! Highly recommend Alchemy and Aby in particular. She’s so pleasant!
Where do I begin? What a wonderful environment! From the moment I walked in I felt pampered! I’m new to Knoxville and I needed a great salon and I found it! David is amazing! He looked at the picture I brought in and listened to what I wanted and he made magic! I left looking like a new person! This is my salon home…
If I had to describe this salon in one word? "Magical". I LOVE love love LOVE this salon! The ambiance from the moment you walk in the door is like walking into a scene from Middle Earth; it's so whimsical. My stylist, Bo, is next-level incredible. Every time I visit, she somehow makes my hair LONGER. It's…
Wow what an elegant salon! It made me feel that I was in a magical place. Nicole did a beautiful job meeting my hair needs. My favorite part was getting my hair washed! The lady massaged my scalp which made me feel so relaxed! I always receive 100% satisfaction and nothing less!
Haley is a joy to interact with. I look forward to my next relaxing interaction.
First of all, what a cute salon! The vibe was chill and cool- a great place to pamper yourself. I saw Haley for my cut and I highly recommend! Haley has not only skill, but also great chat so the time goes by so easily. The hair wash (always my fav part) was excellent. I could have fallen asleep! Haley gave me…
Jessica at Alchemy Salon gave me a fantastic haircut and style today. It was my first visit and I could not be any happier with Jessica at Alchemy Salon.
My favorite salon in Knoxville! Won't go anywhere else. Great energy, great service. They always make me look and feel beautiful!
Excellent results! Haley was warm, professional, and incredibly attentive. Alchemy was inviting from the moment I stepped through the front door—they even greeted me by name. I felt welcomed and well cared for from start to finish. Well done, Alchemy and thank you!
DAVID! David has been my go-to for years now, I followed him to Alchemy and what a great move! The space is warm and moody (vs the clinical and cold feel of my previous salon) and David is a skilled and wonderful specialist that I trust to take care of me and my curls.
The salon has a great vibe, relaxing and current. I would go to any of the staff at Alchemy Salon, they are all great. Nicole does my hair, easy to talk to and an excellent stylist I also see Mea for my facials and waxing, she is amazing and I’m super excited to try the Head Spa very soon.
I only wish I had knew about this place sooner! I don't plan on ever going to another salon again. Nowhere else I have ever been has matched the kindness, warmth, professionalism, and comfort of this salon! Hayley did a phenomenal job cutting my hair, was friendly, and personable! When I first walked in I was taken…
Excellent services. Friendly staff. They offer water and tea. I have a lot of hair and Nicole can do a blow dry in 1 hour. Other services I have used: brazilian hair straightening, eye brows, and eye lash lift! I was happy with them all. My mom also went there and loved it. The atmosphere is super relaxing and I…
The front desk staff was very friendly, the salon was gorgeous and Molly was very professional, friendly and did a wonderful job with my haircut. So happy with my experience. Will definitely be back.
Everyone is always SO amazing, knowledgeable, and talented. I know that I can be booked with any one member on staff and my hair will come out looking flawless. All the hairdressers are so attentive to the notes from previous visits! We just pick up where we left off! So thankful to have found a salon that I can…
It was my first time . It is impressive how this place is so spacious and has so many different rooms. In each one you feel comfortable and relaxed. In a wash room you are in a reclined chair listening to the yoga/meditation music. Molly was my hair stylist, she listened to my concerns, she was very friendly, quick…
