This was hands down one of the best experiences I’ve ever had at any salon! Demie was incredible, the results were everything I wanted. The atmosphere was wonderful and the staff were all very welcoming and fun! Thank you so much for a great time!
Morgan is fantastic! Highly recommend
I’ve received cut, color, and waxing services, plus purchased top quality haircare products, from this kind and talented staff for 9 years! I highly recommend Elevate to all. I always leave the salon looking (and feeling!) way better than when I came in.
Mei has been coloring my hair for the past 3 years and I couldn’t be happier. She nails it every time and I always leave very happy with my experience and the end result!
I have been seeing Anna for all of my hair care needs for 13 years. Following her from ‘Cutting Edge’ to Elevate! Every stylist at Elevate is fantastic and every stylist has their specialty. I am happily impressed by all! Angie is my stylist now, as Anna is no longer behind the chair but busy teaching and perfecting…
Bella was incredibly kind and personable! She listened to me and helped me decide what was best for my hair. I absolutely love what she did with my hair. My entire experience was very pleasant!
Absolutely loved going here!! My hair was cut and colored by Mei Leigh and she did a fabulous job! Shes so kind and fun to talk to. I couldn’t stop admiring and touching my hair for the rest of the day. She really listened to exactly what I wanted and even offered great suggestions for us to do with my hair when I…
Angelia did amazing and exactly what I wanted! There all very sweet and accommodating. The salon is very clean and probably the nicest one ive been too. I will be returning!
Angelia has been doing my long haircuts and balayage for four years. I’m obsessed! The blending is always perfect in my baby-fine hair.
I've been going here to see Jessica for many years for cuts and Balayage. She does a fantastic job! It's a great salon!
I always have the absolute best experience with Maizie. She is a balayage master!
Great experience as always and Brett does a fantastic job with both cut and color!
This Salon felt like a spa! Natalie exceeded my expectations and listened to everything I was wanting and gave her expert advice as well!
This place is simply amazing. The stylists and environment are so inviting. I had been going to Moxie for years and after a couple of bad experiences I tried Elevate and I will never go back. Mei-Leigh does the best color and haircuts. She listens to what I want and if I am not sure, will make suggestions and my hair has always turned out beautifully.
Demi always takes such care for me whenever I come in. She anticipates my needs and I walk away feeling fresh and rejuvenated every time. Highly recommend.
Amazing experience and terrific results. Professional and friendly staff too. Highly recommend!
Morgan is wonderful! She always does exactly what I want. The salon asks for pictures of what you currently have as well as what you want to have, so they can really tell you how to go from A to B. Excellent services!
