I am incredibly disappointed with my recent visit to this salon, especially since I paid full price for a service that was completely botched. I specifically asked for a layered, face-framing haircut with side bangs. Unfortunately, the stylist gave me a cut that looks absolutely nothing like what I described; it…
One of the only places to not just want to straighten my hair.
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.…
Kyliegh is such a calming presence for an anxious and shy girlie like me. She makes me comfortable, which is something I haven’t found at other salons. She’s informative, patient, and my hair looks great every time I leave. Thanks so much!
Great service and I love my hair.
Wonderful experience. I was able to get in for a last minute appointment before leaving town. I love my curl cut!
Fantastic haircut by Abba, will certainly use again.
Another amazing job by Erica my third time with her and I will be back
What a great experience! I really like my new cut, style, & everything about this place!
Erika was mindful of each and every snip. She cut and shaped my hair beautifully.
Spending two hours here on a Saturday and paying 100+ dollars for what was effectively a 1/16 inch trim was not how I wanted to spend my time nor my money, especially considering the color didn't take either. Will be disputing the charges. The hairdresser herself was fine though, but if you're looking for a shorter…
Today was a great experience! I got a relaxing shampoo and a fabulous cut & style from ABBA. Definitely staying as a client!
I don’t have words simply amazing
Daniel is very good at her job! I cut off probably 10-12 inches into an asymmetrical bob and I love it!
Caitlin was the one to cut my hair. After styling my hair on my own, I realized she gave me a really nice blueprint to work with. I unfortunately forgot to leave a tip… sorry. I’ll come again someday in the future.
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.
My daughter had her very long hair cut off and it was absolutely perform done!!
From the moment I walked in the door and was greeted by Gwyn to the haircut, shampoo, blowout, and other services Kyleigh provided me, it was, as always a wonderful experience. Thanks! Kyleigh is so good - I always feel great when I leave.
First timer. My hair stylist listened to me and asked multiple questions to make sure i received the hair cut I wanted. I will definitely be returning.
Stylist was on time listened and helped me ease into a style. Liked the studio too. Although it’s a bit difficult to find, it’s worth the hunt!
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!!
Danielle is an all-star and a fantastic stylist. She listened to my needs and completely transformed my hair. A welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff. Two weeks later and I'm STILL receiving compliments and repeat compliments from the same people! I'm very happy I chose Alter'd Culture.
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.
Great first experience at Alter’d! I scheduled a same day appointment with Kyleigh for the barber style haircut. She was so kind and listened to my wants/concerns with my hair. I have alopecia areata and have been cutting my own hair for over a year and now that I’m currently in a good place with my hair loss and…
Madison did a wonderful job! I felt so at ease from the moment I stepped in the door!!! Excellent experience!
Awesome -travel a lot and had 3 "chop" jobs at barbers - waited for 7!weeks to let my hair grow longer. I am very happy with the styling I got here !!
I did a haircut with Erin and was amazing! She is very nice and the result was exactly what I expected.
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!!!
This was my first visit here and Erika really listened to what I wanted and executed it well. She was friendly but not overly talkative and it was super helpful that I could make an appointment after work. Front desk was friendly as well.
Kayleigh was great! I came to get a trim and perm and she advised on cut and styling my hair. Professional and given that my hair is so so thick she took time to do it right. Thanks for a great experience!
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!
Danielle was amazing as always with my haircut. The front desk Gwyn did a great job getting me checked in and ready to go for my appointment! I loved the new Salon renovations.
ABBA was great in knowing what I wanted and what would be good for my hair length. Very professional
I had a wonderful experience at Alter'd Culture! Maggie did an amazing job with my haircut, and I absolutely love the result. Everyone was friendly, welcoming, and professional. Thank you for making me feel comfortable. I'll definitely be back. Highly recommend! ❤️
Erika is super nice and made me feel like she actually cares about my hair and how I feel.
My hair looks gooood and feels great too!
Kyleigh was a very kind listener to my needs and did exactly what I asked for. Go see her ladies!!!
Got an amazing long shag haircut with Danielle. I highly recommend her for your next appointment! Love her whole vibe & the atmosphere of the salon.
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 am so happy with my hair! This was my first time coming in, and I booked an appointment with Danielle because of her expertise. I have very fine hair that needed a great cut. She listened to my concerns and made thoughtful recommendations. Her colleague Maggie showed me a helpful blow dry technique. They also had…
Great experience. Stylist was wonderful and spent time really listening to my wants and concerns. She even showed me how to style my curls!!! The most beautiful I have seen them in a long time. 😍 This is now my forever go to salon. Recommend it to everyone.
Great as always! The renovations are fabulous. Purchased a product for thinning hair. Excited to used it.
Kiley did an excellent job. She is very skilled as well as very personable and kind.
I haven’t been to a hair salon in several years, and was in serious need of a chop and new style. Kyleigh is so sweet and talented, and I LOVE my cut! Will definitely be sticking with this salon from now on.
Got the cut I requested, got some simple advice, will be back.
Abba gave me the exact haircut and style I needed! The blowout she gave me lasted me the rest of the day. She was so kind - made me feel the most beautiful and confident I have been in months. Can’t wait to return.
It was great1 Kyleigh is very skilled at cut and color for MEN! i will be happy to go back
Abba is great, she makes sure to clearly understand what I want. She is always friendly and does a wonderful job on my haircuts.
Came in after losing most of my hair and Danielle did a wonderful consultation. I can only recommend the hair repairing treatment. It is 100% worth it. You will see the difference instantly. Danielle also made a wonderful HAIR plan with me for new hair growth to thrive while providing me with the ideal cut to face…
Fantastic first experience! Will be back for my next haircut!
Abba did a great job on my daughter’s curly hair! We will definitely be back!
I had a very good first impression. The staff is attentive and considerate, and I appreciate the reminder texts and a call to tell me they were running behind. Kyleigh listened to what I like and I'm very happy with my haircut.
Erika is amazing, she always does what I ask her. ❤️
They always do a great job with my hair, the prices are great and they are always welcoming and friendly. I highly recommend this place to everyone.
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 🫶🏻
Danielle is one of the best stylists I know. She trains her staff to understand the chemistry behind the products they use. Kylie did my most recent highlights and did a wonderful job!!! I’ll definitely see them again!
Comfortable atmosphere, really friendly and knowledgeable staff. Loved the result and plan to go back.
It was my second time getting my hair cut and colored here. It was a great experience and it looks good.
Highly recommend. I was looking specifically for someone who can do an edgy bob, NOT just a short haircut, specifically a stylized bob. You know what I mean? Problem is I’m also missing hair at my temples and a bob cut was likely to be more of a mullet. Danielle DID know how to cut the perfect trendy bob AND threw…
