I had a great experience at Elevate! The whole atmosphere was relaxing and everyone I interacted with was pleasant and helpful!
Loved the experience ❤️❤️
Adilee did an AMAZING job with my long layered haircut, super impressed!!!!
It was my first time at Elevate. The staff was very kind. Averee made me feel comfortable and did a phenomenal job on my hair!
Madison did a great job! Very pleased with my cut.
Elevate Salon provides great service. Everyone is friendly and attentive. I love how my hair looks and feels after my appointment. Morgan is awesome!
Rachel‘s been cutting my hair for a VERY long time. Your place has always been perfectly chill. And the coconut chocolate Luna bars are the bomb. I’d never go to anyone, or anywhere else. ; )
What a wonderful and professional team! You all are so kind and honest. My curls look so hydrated and happy! Molly & Anna are 10/10 fabulous
Justin did his usual great job and my granddaughter loved his hair. Always feel welcome at elevate. Can't come up with a negative. Thank ya'll for all you do. 😀
I enjoy the welcoming, relaxed environment and conversing with Rachel. Always a fantastic hair cut as well
First time haircut with Hannah went great. She listened carefully, looked at the haircut photos I provided, asked questions about my desired look and gave me feedback on what she thought would/would not work for me. During the cut she stopped a few times to make certain I liked the length and she explained what she…
Consistently amazing service. Maura is the best. Have gotten every kind of haircut and multiple color treatments and loved them al.
Always leave happy & that can’t be said of a lot of places! Been with this stylist for a while now & she happily does a very simple cut, every single time, remembers preferences & offers useful comments/suggestions. A relaxed but professional atmosphere. It’s a little treat to oneself, I enjoy each time.
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!
Left happy AGAIN after a cut from Andrea. Love her!
I had a great experience. Everyone was very kind and lively. The environment there is great!
Madison has done a great job with my hair for 4 months now (I’m new to town). Beautiful highlights, and cut exactly as I described. Also a very fair pricier!
Natalie is a talented stylist. I have been her customer for 2 years now and have never been disappointed with her work. I am very picky when it comes to my hair. She makes my hair shine and compliment my look. I highly recommend Elevate for their professionalism and customer care.
Hannah did an excellent job with my cut and partial highlights. She’s great with color and super thoughtful!
My first experience with Elevate & it was FABULOUS! Madison did an amazing job with my new haircut & I’ll be coming back in a couple of weeks to have her do my color! I’m looking forward to having Madison as my stylist for a long time! Cheers!
I had haircut with Mei. She exceeded my expectation. Knowledgeable and well skilled with her craft.
I love this salon! Not only is it an amazing local business, it's staff are so kind, the products are there own and it's exceptionally clean.
Andrea is amazing! Going to the salon is fun! I love change and hair is a great way to express change. Andrea listens, offers advice and the results are always perfection!
I have never left a salon happy with my haircut. I’ve never left a salon happy. I’ve been judged for person things. I cut my own hair and dyed it for over 7 years because of an incident. I’ve been full of anxiety to go somewhere else and have the same thing happen. After getting my hair dyed and cut today… I…
Morgan is my hair stylist. She does a really good job cutting and styling my hair. She is such a caring person. I have multiple brain tumors that impacts my mobility. She helps me move safely around the salon.
Great experience with great customer service. My hairstylist was really nice and experienced.
Andrea always does a great job.
Had an amazing experience here!!! Hannah was so nice and taught me so much about how to care for my curly hair type and how to style it. She did a wonderful job with my hair cut!
Wonderful experience. Hannah did a great job; she answered questions I had and gave me helpful tips as well.
Angie is the best! She was so kind, professional and extremely talented. I have already booked my next two appointments. Everyone was very nice.
I’ve been avoiding getting my hair cut or colored for almost two years because of negative past experiences at multiple salons in town. Mei Leigh flawlessly transformed my hair with highlights and a new cut which left me feeling happy with a hair appointment for the first time in many years.
I love my layers. Hannah did a really good job.
Angie gave me my first pixie cut. She did an outstanding job. She seemed very knowledgeable and was extremely friendly. I absolutely love my new haircut! Elevate Salon is very nice and I will definitely be returning here. ❣️
Beautiful salon, friendly employees. My stylist Averee listened carefully to what I wanted and did a lovely job shaping my haircut into a look I love. She was very kind and really made me feel at ease in her chair. I highly recommend her for your next haircut!
I had such a peaceful time getting my haircut with Hannah! She listened to exactly what I wanted and delivered beautifully. Couldn’t have asked for a better salon experience.
This was my first time visiting Elevate Salon, and it was truly the best salon experience I’ve ever had! Hannah is absolutely amazing. She took the time to teach me so many helpful tips for caring for and styling my wavy hair, and I left feeling so happy with my experience. I will definitely be coming back!
Mei Leigh has been cutting my hair regularly for a couple of years, and I couldn’t be happier. She seems completely at ease with scissors in her hands, as her talent defies her age. Plus, she’s just a joy to be around. Ask her about any movie. She's probably seen it at least once. I feel fortunate to have found…
I absolutely love Elevate! Jessica is amazing! I’m so grateful that I found her and Elevate.
Another great haircut at Elevate!
Greta experience with Andrea! She was friendly, kind and made the experience and haircut exactly what I wanted
Madison was so fun and made my first time memorable. Already planning my next appointment so she can take on my “project” Loved her and she is now my hair cutter person!
Madison did a fantastic job
Lovely staff and great haircut. Will return.
I’m so happy to have found Mei-Leigh and always love my hair and leave feeling great. Mei-Leigh is a joy to know, a talented stylist, and I enjoy our conversations about movies and life. The atmosphere at Elevate is relaxing and the people are welcoming. See you soon!
Natalie was great and I love my cut! Awesome atmosphere
UPDATE: I got my second haircut from Hannah in August. It looks even better than the first! I absolutely love it. She was recently promoted and it's obvious she very much deserved to be. She gave me a sassy lil bob that looks good with almost zero styling. Again, would give 10/10 stars if I could. ORIGINAL REVIEW:…
Finding this salon and especially Angie has been amazing. Lovely environment, easy parking, great location and Angie’s talent? My hair hasn’t looked this good in a while
I cannot say enough lovely things about Andrea and the crew at Elevate. She gave my teenager the hot pink hair of their dreams- we will be back again and again and again. Thank you!
Justin was amazing! He gave me the exact cut I asked for and I love it. The salon is super cute and the atmosphere is relaxing.
Skylar was fantastic! Super personable and easy to chat with. Gave a fantastic hair cut. Looking forward to booking again!
Had a very wonderful experience with a haircut with Raven; my first visit to Elevate but definitely will return!
The worst haircut I’ve ever gotten. I have been cutting my hair to long bob for years and never had an issue with it but when I went to this place thinking they are professionals and will cut my hair the way I want but I wish I never went to them. Andrea was in a rush didn’t talk to me I showed her the video of a…
Morgan is great!
Morgan is fantastic! Highly recommend
Angi listened and worked with me to develop a style. She touched up my roots and cut my hair. I was very happy with the experience.
I've only had positive experiences at Elevate! Both Hannah and Madison have taken incredible care of my hair, from significant length changes to my first-ever hair color appointment. I have referred multiple friends because they do such a great job, and the atmosphere is bright and welcoming.
Beautiful salon!! Everyone was so friendly and Justin was absolutely wonderful. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience and would definitely recommend this salon to anyone!
I had such a wonderful experience at Elevate Salon and Spa. Very welcoming atmosphere.A great pixie haircut from Rachel. Will definitely be my new hair stylist. Thank You!
