Took my 14 year old daughter here for her first haircut in an actual salon! She has always gotten her hair cut by her grandmother who is a barber. She was excited to have the full salon experience. I chose to take her to this place, it looked cool online and I love that part of town so it seemed like a good choice.…
Wonderful experience. I was able to get in for a last minute appointment before leaving town. I love my curl cut!
Amazing! Best curly cut in a long time!
Came in looking like a hot mess, and came out with a huge confidence boost! Hair looks great, and the whole team did an amazing job helping out along the way.
Everyone was very nice. And even though I didnt know exactly what I wanted, they knew exactly what I needed. Very pleased with the end result!!
This is the best cut and color I can remember getting! Abba took the time to listen to what I wanted and figure out how to make it happen. I love how hard she tries to meet her clients’ expectations, and she nailed it, as usual.
Thank you for an amazing curly cut, Kyleigh!
I’ve been twice to get my curly hair cut by Abba and she has given me the best hair cut both times! Exactly what I described and I couldn’t recommend her enough!!!
I love my haircut so much!!! It feels softer and fuller. It looks and feels amazing and I’m beyond happy with the result that Lauren has done!
Had a very great experience, walked in looking a mess (hadn’t had a color or cut since before having my baby) just left over grown out color, spoke with my stylist about what I wanted, she was very honest about what we could do to my hair and what would be the healthiest option for me, very personalized to fit all…
I was afraid to go to a new salon, curly hair is easy to get wrong. But Kyleigh really did such a good job! I will definitely be going back.
First dry curly cut my daughter has gotten after waiting about 6 years since the last real cut due to being traumatized. Y’all did amazing with her hair! Thank you so much! We’ll definitely be back 🫶🏻
Comfortable atmosphere, really friendly and knowledgeable staff. Loved the result and plan to go back.
Friendly welcome, engaging conversation, respectful education, responsive to customer needs
I appreciate that this salon is inclusive of multicultural clients, doing all textures. They have tools that get hot enough and products that compliment various types of hair. The owner is very big in continuing education. I've seen her on multiple occasions coaching the stylists on technique and products. The salon…
Been coming here for quite a while now and I’ve never had a bad experience. Highly recommend especially for those with insanely curly hair
Abba is so wonderful to work with! I always feel welcomed coming to the salon.
Christina did a great job cutting and styling my son's curly hair. The appointment took longer than anticipated because my son's hair is a lot. My son is a typical indecisive 15 year old, who didn't want to get his hair cut to begin with. Christina was kind and patient. His hair is even!! We have struggled with that…
The girls are so welcoming! I was a walk in and they treated me like they knew me forever!!
Lauren gave my wavy hair a complete transformation! She worked with my personal hair goals and delivered that and more.
I loved the questionnaire to help match you with a stylist. I matched with Christina, who I absolutely loved. She listened, informed me, and help me find the haircut I wanted.
Everyone was friendly and Erika gave my curls a much needed healthy cut. My hair looks and feels so much better. Thank you!
LOOOVE!! Only good things to say!! Christina is SOO talented!! The atmosphere, the skilled professionals, THE SCALP MASSAGE!! They just get it right every time. SOOO HAPPY I FOUND THIS PLACE! I’ve done balayage, melts, tones, smoothing and shine treatments. Looking forward to my next appointment!
Finally, someone that knows how to trim curly hair! Thanks Christina! See you in March!
Kyleigh was amazing and so patient. Took her time and did great and made me feel so comfortable! Will definitely be coming back regularly.
I booked a curly cut, color and style with Ms.Christina and she did an amazing job at giving me exactly what I asked for!! 10/10 WOULD RECOMMEND!!!
I am SO happy with my cut from Sarah today! She really took the time to ask questions about my hair, what I wanted, and just who I am in general. She was super attentive and skilled with my wavy, thick hair. Thank you Sarah!!
Lauren was AMAZING! My hair was a mess! I had had several bad experiences and it showed! I have red, naturally curly hair and Lauren is the first stylist to know what to do to get me back to my natural red! She also was able to fix a bad cut. I walked out of there living my best life with my head held high! Never going anywhere else!! Michelle
Love Danielle Is a rockstar goddess! Her staff so friendly and nice and well trained and organized. Love my hair! Such a treat. The atmosphere and music also top notch.
My daughter and I were in Louisville for a few days and had some down time, so we decided to find a place to get our hair cut and styled. We found Altr’d Culture, and it was the best! Hailey was my stylist, and Lauren was my daughter’s stylist. They were both very helpful, kind, personable and professional. I wish I…
Christina did a great job on my sons perm. It looks fantastic!
This was my first time coming here and I had a great experience! I haven’t been able to find a place that is good with curly hair but they handled mine beautifully, I will be coming back again!
I always have a great experience here! I’ve seen Haley and Christina so far, and they’re both wonderful! I love how easy it is to sign up for an appointment online (even if it’s the night before). Great prices too!
Such a relaxing experience! Pretty sure I almost fell asleep multiple times. Sarah was so nice and took her time to understand what I was looking for. Made return appointment when I left!
Out of all my salon experiences, this was by far the best! I can’t wait to be back :)
Had a wonderful experience for my first visit. I will be returning for future services.
Sarah was amazing for my curls! She listened to all I had to say and executed perfectly. She was friendly, organized, and skilled - not much more to ask for!
I have been seeing Erika for several years and she’s the best with my curly hair! Always recommending new curl techniques and products and always so sweet! Love getting to sit in her chair every couple months and would recommend her to anyone for a simple cut or a fresh color!!
Absolutely incredible customer service. Erika is the absolute BEST person I’ve ever had do my hair. 🧡🧡🧡🧡
I started going to Alter'd Culture in July 2022 when I had finally gotten tired of my curly hair being damaged by at-home box dye jobs. I made an appointment with Erika and I was not disappointed! She listened to everything that I wanted and I've been going back to see her ever since! She has allowed me to live out…
Kendall Hill, holy wow, what can be said. She delivers everything, and more. Curly hair can be tricky, and I have plenty of it, yet she glides through trim, and styling with a contagious confidence and joy. She gives me tips, tricks, product advice, and dialogues with me about likes, and dislikes. She's great,…
Rayne is absolutely amazing. She truly understands your goals and helps you find the best way to be your happiest self and is the best person to take you there. She has given me everything and more with my hair goals and I could not be more in love with the care and attention she pays to her clients. She makes me…
Rayne has been AMAZING and I seriously do not trust anyone else with my hair now. She’s brought my vision to life every time and my hair is so healthy thanks to her. Everyone at the salon is so welcoming and it’s just an overall great vibe. 10/10 for customer service!
I love Ericka!! Most barbers don't know how to cut my curly hair right but she does great!!
Love love loved my experience with this salon! Rayne made me feel so relaxed and like we’ve been friends for years. Cannot wait to go back, I’ve never had an experience like that any other place in this area. My hair look great and was exactly what I wanted. 10/10 definitely recommend!
