Marjorie is the best. I’ve been coming here for years. Consistent, clean and always welcoming salon. Love this place. .
Well in the dark without light it looks good. However Marjorie, master stylist did the opposite. It could of been worse. The current formula contains components that contribute to warmth, and dark hair naturally exposes red underlying pigment when lifted. I SPECIFICALLY told her I did not want red. The wanted…

Cortney has been coloring and styling my hair for years. She’s not only amazing but very knowledgeable in her field. I have dark brown hair with a bit of wave and she knows exactly how to cut it to keep it looking beautiful and healthy. She also cuts my teenage son’s hair and he has a lot of curls!
This was my first appointment with Stephanie and definitely not my last! My Balayage color is perfect. Best color I’ve ever had done and love it! Thank you!!

I have been seeing Marjorie for over a year and a half now and have never been disappointed. Would 100% recommend the salon and Marjorie.
Jason G. Is the best! His blond highlight technique is the finest I’ve ever experienced. The salon and Jason are a sanctuary for me and I always enjoy my time at Distinctive!
Wonderful atmosphere professional team.

Plus they up charge without disclosing. Upcharge per bowl, and had they given me what I asked for, it would have been only…
The best salon experience I've ever experienced. Stephanie was so incredible and knowledgeable! Everyone was really nice at this salon!
Great experience at Biltmore location yesterday. Destiny did such a wonderful job recoloring my hair, working so hard to blow my curly hair smooth and straight. Simply beautiful!!
I am in Phoenix for an extended stay and needed a cut and color. Looked for aveda salons near me and found Distinctive. Gabby was my stylist and first time around make my hair look beautiful. I would recommend her to anyone, whether you are traveling or for a permanent stylist.
