Fringe Collective for hair highlighting

I typically see Ashley for my hair but I cannot speak highly enough of this whole team. They’ve perfected creating a warm and inviting environment and are equally just as skilled in all things hair. I love that there is a stylist here for every hair type!
Love Stephanie at Fringe. I’ve been going there for years. Tried long hair, short hair, curly, straight, extensions! Yes those pics are both me! So fun! I like to switch it up. Stephanie has been patient and thoughtful and lead me through it all. I’ve tried lots of places in Cville and Fringe is hands down the best!
I am exceptionally pleased with the salon and it is always a great experience. My hair looks great!
I had the most wonderful experience! Pearl was a true artist with my hair — both the color and style. I highly recommend trusting Pearl’s expertise and creativity. Thank you so very much!
It’s hard to find a salon that gets it right every time, but Fringe Collective does. I’ve been coming here for nearly two years for the perfect mix of expert skill and a calming, welcoming atmosphere. Walking into Fringe feels like a giant exhale! Fringe offers a true boutique experience, and Ashley is exceptional…
Now that I have found Laura, I wont see anyone else! She gets it perfect every single time, even when I go in unsure of what I want. She asks the right questions so we both get an understanding of what is best for me for the season. Thanks a million, Laura!
I've never looked forward to going to the salon until I started going to Fringe! The atmosphere is warm, cozy, and always welcoming. Ashley is pretty much a magical wizard. She takes the time to listen to my needs, and delivers exactly what I ask for 100% of the time. I interacted with several of the other…
Excellent experience all around!! Absolutely loved the color and Ashley is phenomenal :)
I am SO happy with my hair! Laura did such a great job of bringing my blonde hair dreams to life. She was so intentional in making sure I was comfortable with each step of the process. Can’t wait to go back!
I love everything about having my hair taken care of at the Fringe Collective. The stylists are all personable, professional and talented. Parking is easy. Appointments are easy to schedule and I always feel and look great when I leave. They take great care of their clients!
Fringe Collective is a truly incredible salon. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is relaxing, peaceful, and welcoming. What really sets Fringe Collective apart is the incredible team. The staff is professional, friendly, and clearly passionate about what they do. You can tell that everyone there takes…
Laura took my 11-month grown out highlights and turned it into a masterpiece! I went in thinking the blonde color I wanted wouldn’t be achievable in one visit because so much of my natural brown had grown out, but she gave me exactly what I wanted! Bright, dimensional, and not a hint of orange in sight. And she was…
I grew up wishing I had beautiful long hair. I have so many memories of crying leaving salon after salon. Then I met Ashley and this very talented lady changed my life! I have the hair I’ve always dreamed of and I can’t believe it’s mine! Fringe isn’t just a salon, it’s an experience and definitely one you should have.
I’m so lucky I found Fringe Collective! Ashley is masterful at hair, of course, but even more at distilling what picture or idea I have into what is best for me. I trust her - and the whole team - explicitly with my hair and overall experience. Everyone is incredibly thoughtful, fun, and professional. I’ve learned…
Stephanie is a wonderful stylist here! I have gone to her for 4 years now and have never once been upset with how she has done my hair. I have referred many other women to her and they have had the same response - she is amazing! I get blonde highlights and a cut and she always makes me feel gorgeous. Definitely try out Fringe!
I love Fringe Collective; the vibes are warm, and everyone is always so friendly and kind, the service wonderful. Every stylist there is great, but Teniya is MY GIRL. She’s been doing my hair for a while now, and she always makes me feel stunning any time I’m in her chair. She never misses the mark on what I ask…
Ashley is “my person” and I absolutely do NOT trust anyone else with my hair. Ashley has a beautiful sense of style, a great eye and offers an honest opinion about how to best color, style and has great taste overall. I highly recommend her and her team to develop a long term relationship!! I have been with her for 10 years and would follow her anywhere!
The best service! The best experience! And my hair looks great!!!
