Glitter & Gray Salon at a glance

Customers report high satisfaction with hair coloring, cuts, and nail services, noting that manicures and pedicures last for several weeks without peeling. Staff are described as punctual, attentive to detail, and friendly, creating a welcoming environment for both new and returning clients. One reviewer noted that a deluxe pedicure appointment lasted sixty minutes instead of the advertised ninety, which was a source of disappointment. The salon is located in a restaurant hallway, and while walk-ins are sometimes accepted, booking ahead is recommended to ensure availability.

Reese absolutely DID the dang thing with my hair. I came in with dark virgin hair that I’ve been working with since 2021, and left with so much shine, dimension, and fantasizing about the next time I can have my hair washed like that again. I’m totally in love with my hair, and I’m thankful Reese has found a place…

The salon and all the ladies were lovely! Abby did such a great job with my nails, Amazing chit chat but as I had a migraine develop she didn’t even question why I got quiet and still got her work done beautifully!! No pain, she cleaned up my cuticles (and a hang nail!) so nicely, and my nails look amazing! Anytime I come back to Savannah seeing her will be on my list :)
