Consistently amazing service. Maura is the best. Have gotten every kind of haircut and multiple color treatments and loved them al.
Absolutely Love this Salon! I’ve been a client for many years. Demi is an awesome stylist, she listens to her clients and is very precise in her work. The shop has an easy relaxed & welcoming vibe, and offers drinks & snacks, as well as their own brand of excellent hair products.
Mei Leigh is fantastic! Young and very current on new techniques and trends. Spent time discussing options to get the results I wanted. Very nice salon. Have scheduled my next appointment and will be a regular.
Always a great experience, nice to find stylists you can trust.
Demie at Elevate salon and spa did me RIGHT girl let me tell you if you dont go see her and experience the magic she preforms on your head you really missing out on a core memory of the best service you will ever have.
Rachel is an amazing stylist! Love going to Elevate!
I came to Elevate with help needed with my hair. I had always taken the more cost effective route and hadn’t liked my hair in a few years. I scheduled an appointment with Elevate where they reached out a few weeks before and asked for what I was looking for. The communication was nothing I experienced before. I knew…
Best cut and color, matched inspo exactly and super sweet staff! Ask for Maura!!
Jessica is always great! I love the way she cut my hair (new hair style).
I had a haircut appt on 02/14/25 with Mei Leigh.The plan was to cut my hair and blowdry and she exactly that. It came out beautiful
Maura did a fantastic job with my hair! I get so comfortable and it’s such a cozy environment! I would recommend this place to any and everybody
I love this salon (great environment!), and Nicole is the best stylist I have ever worked with in my life. Perfect highlights. She’s wonderful. I’ve been going to her at Elevate since moving to C’ville in summer 2023. Shameless photo of my hair in the salon bathroom after she did a partial highlight back in September.
Cannot recommend this salon enough. Me, my mom, and sister have been going to Jess for years. We all have different hair types and color treatments, and she styles all of us flawlessly. The salon itself is a lovely experience where you are pampered, even if you get a simple service. Will continue to recommend this salon to family and friends!
Brett does an amazing job every time! She is very personable and always listens to my mom and I! Would very much recommend!!
Jessica was awesome. She listened to what I wanted and it turned out awesome. I will definitely be going back. I’m going to refer my daughter also ❤️
Justin did a terrific job!
I always have the absolute best experience with Maizie. She is a balayage master!
This Salon felt like a spa! Natalie exceeded my expectations and listened to everything I was wanting and gave her expert advice as well!
Anna and her staff are amazing! I have been a customer of Anna’s for several years now and have had the pleasure of having her and her staff color and cut my hair as well as dye my eye brows on a regular basis. I always leave there feeling and looking great!
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.
From the minute I walked in, to the wave I got driving away I felt taken care of and so welcome! I absolutely LOVE my haircut. Definitely recommend to everyone!
Had a great time here, everyone is so friendly and I got the perfect haircut for me!
I have been seeing the stylists at Elevate since we moved to Charlottesville in 2019! I have seen so many of their stylists and everyone is INCREDIBLE. The entire team is well trained, friendly, patient, and always works hard to make sure you are comfortable and getting the cut/style you dream of. I simply cannot…
My Stylist is Mei-Leigh and I just love her. She has colored my hair several times and each time it turns out amazing. I am not the best client to describe what I want but she makes sure that once we are done with the consultation, she knows what direction to go in to get the results I am looking for. I love her…
