Love this Salon. Great atmosphere and service. Megan does a beautiful job with my curly hair!
Meghan gives me the best haircut!
Lucette was absolutely amazing! From the moment I walked in, the salon had such a warm, welcoming atmosphere that made the entire experience relaxing and enjoyable. Lucette’s talent, professionalism, and attention to detail truly stood out, and I left feeling refreshed, confident, and so happy with the results. I…
Timo is the best! And amazing with curly hair.
Lucette gave me a great curly hair cut today! She is very experienced and skilled, not to mention sweet and personable. Curly haired girls know how difficult it is to find a skilled stylist who knows how to cut curls to maximize them. Lucette is an expert! So glad I found her. Booking online was simple as was…
Timo’s curly cuts are amazing!!!
The best Curly set and gloss! Timo and Jordan are wonderful.
Megan is the best - I have been going to her over 20 years! She has trained many people in her shop who get lots of hands on experience. She does all kinds of hair and is miraculous at using color. Highly recommend!!!
If you have curly, kinky or wavy hair, Timo is your girl! Her expertise with curls is top notch. Love the relaxed vibe and friendliness of everyone at Hairsmith!
I was so happy with my soft blended highlights from Ashley. She really listened to me and did wonders with my very fine hair. Not an easy task! I was looking for something really natural because I only do color every six months or so. If you’re like me and you want something subtle that will grow out beautifully,…
I wouldn't trust my curls to anyone else!
Timo is very skilled, knowledgable, loves to teach about products/styling, and is fashionable in the coolest of ways. Truly an artist! Salon itself is tucked up in the treetops and makes it feel like a get-away in the middle of town.
Katya took the time to listen to my hair and face shape challenges and analyzed my hair. The cut she gave me frames my face perfectly and my soft curls are very happy!
I always look forward to my appointments! Everybody there is super cool and easy going, yet very professional when it comes to their processes. Timo knows my hair better than I do! She’s really helped me find my true look. I don’t really want to recommend these folks too much because I already have to plan well ahead to get in there! Love these folks!
Love this salon! The staff are friendly and accommodating! They have coffee, snacks, sparkling water and comfy furniture. Katya is the best!!!
The hidden location belies a warm, welcoming group of stylists who are talented, lighthearted, and delightful to spend time with. And undoubtedly I leave looking SO MUCH BETTER than when I walked in!
I have been coming to Hairsmith & Co for several years now. I love this salon. It's so unique and cozy and the vibes & energy there are ALWAYS positive. Ashley has been my stylist for a long time now and I adore her. She's so friendly and kind and extremely good at what she does. Every time I leave Ashley, I feel…
I’ve seen Ashley twice now, one for cut and one for color, and she is AMAZING!!! I have been beyond happy both visits, and plan to see her from here on out. She does well with long lasting color and works really great with curly hair.
10/10 service & curl care :)
Really great and welcoming people
Jordan and Timo are amazing with my curly hair and graying hair. I recommend them highly!
Ashley was lovely, she was on time and was collaborative every step of the way. I am grateful she has Saturday hours.
Love Meghan and her salon. Everyone is so upbeat and kind and Meghan does a wonderful job with my curly hair!
I’ve been going to HairSmith for a couple of years. I’ve gotten everything from trims to bangs to full on chops and transformations, and their team always nails it! No doubt the entire team is great, but Timo and Jordan are the best curly hair specialists I’ve ever been to.
Katya is an artist and a beautiful human!!
Hair Smith is the best! The atmosphere is super fun and the stylist are all very friendly and talented.
Timo is the BEST!!
Megan is the curly cut genius and I love her calming vibe!
Best hair salon in Charlottesville! We recently moved from Arizona and I was looking for a new hair salon, I tried a few different places across town, but none were great until I found HairSmith and CO. They are truly experts in hair and their pricing I very fair. I couldn't be happier that I have found my forever hair salon! I would highly recommend!
Timo is always so so professional, detail oriented, and diligent in her work. She spent extra time with me to ensure my cut and style was not only beautiful in the salon but also functional for my everyday life. Amazing experience as always!
Cannot say enough great things about HairSmith and Jordan as my stylist!! She really takes her time, and it shows 110% in the finished product. From guiding me on how to properly care for and style my curls, to touching up my highlights, she was amazing every step of the way. At my first appointment I got product…
I’ve been going to Hair Smith & Co for about 3 years and have loved it. I’ve gone for curly cuts with Timo and she is amazing. Timo always takes the time to understand what I want done, but I honestly trust her to do anything. I’ve never left unhappy. They also offer bang and neck trims to keep my cut lasting…
I'm a curly girl and have loved my hair since coming here! I've seen Timo, Ashley, and Jordan- all due to my odd scheduled. They have all been fabulous in shaping up my curls.
i love this salon! timo does an amazing job on my curly hair, and jordan is incredible with color (and curly cuts!). always happy to come relax here and have my hair in such capable hands.
Hairsmith knows curly hair!! I found out curly hair should be dry cut then tweaked as necessary after styling and that’s what my hairdresser does. Thanks, Timo. If you’re after the same be sure to say because only a few are curly hair experts. I am ALWAYS happy with what Timo does with my hair!
My hair is wavy/curly, depending on the weather - and the cut! I found this salon via social media and haven’t gone elsewhere since. Previously, I tried to two different local salons advertising wavy/curly hair specialists, and left with straight, blown-out hair, despite being up front about not wanting a blow out…
Ashley did an amazing job! She taught me how to manage my curly hair, answered all my questions, and made the experience relaxing.
Fantastic place for haircuts and styling, Timo is especially amazing for curly cuts. Everyone is friendly, welcoming and supportive. The business is also very inclusive! My kids also both get their haircuts by Ashley who is just wonderful and does a great job.
This hair salon is always welcoming and comfortable to walk into. I can tell by the banter that everyone, clients and hairstylists, enjoy each other and the beautiful space. AND I always leave with an amazing haircut!
Timo does an amazing job cutting my curly hair! I always leave with it looking exactly how I hoped. Best haircuts I’ve ever had.
