Salon Afton for balayage

This is the best salon. They love seeing you as much as you will love being there. They work so hard to give you exactly what you want while also guiding to give you the best style that fits. Everyone is wonderful and you are safe in all of their hands no matter who you book with!
I have used this place for haircuts and always loved what I got so I decided to try color. I wanted something edgy since my job will not allow vibrant colors so I went with silver to white balayage highlights. I did a consultation and everything seemed to be going great. Was told this wouldn't be a problem and I…
Rhianna was amazing and gave me the style I really wanted. Salon is super cute, great staff.
Ashley was AMAZING! My hair looks beautiful thanks to her! So kind and professional!
Everyone is so nice and professional. Aubrie is fantastic, highly recommend!
I had moved away from the area so I hadn’t come to Afton Salon in many many years. When I had no luck with other salons I decided to book an appointment back with Afton Salon. I was scheduled with Selena. I could not be any happier. What a wonderful environment in that salon, making me feel so comfortable. All the…
Abby is wonderful. I’ve changed up how I want my hair done every time I’m in her chair and she always does a great job with whatever I throw at her. Most recently she did an awesome reverse balayage because I wasn’t loving the sharp grow out from my highlights. My hair looks so much more natural and the blonde…
Selina went above and beyond! She was very knowledgeable about the process and how to make my hair match my facial features and complexion. Highly recommend her and Salon Afton!!
Abby did an amazing job on my balayage! The atmosphere is very friendly and Sadie is adorable and so sweet.
Brittaney was AWESOME! I love my hair and am so thankful she worked with me to get what I was shooting for! I know when you bring a picture, it can’t always happen but she talked about a plan to eventually get to the picture I brought without damaging my hair like crazy and the products used smell SO good! Thanks so much!
This Salon is amazing! I needed an appointment asap back in April, Whitney worked me into her busy schedule. She’s a rockstar at multi tasking. Everyone I’ve encountered is super friendly. I absolutely love that the owner brings her dog, Sadie, to the salon. Sadie is the definition of a gentle giant with…
An amazing environment with wonderful stylists! Abby and Brittany are both wonderful, I highly recommend stopping by (even if it’s just to see Sadie 😉)
Love love love! Such amazing people, great atmosphere, and obviously great work. Everyone is awesome but I typically see Hayley for blonde balayage. She is a really great hairstylist, always puts in 110%, and she’s always super nice. She really puts in the effort to make sure I leave with healthy beautiful hair. Definitely recommend!
Brittany was awesome and my hair turned out amazing! Absolutely will be back!
Great salon! I’ve had my hair cut & colored by both Ashley and Jessica and they are both amazing at what they do! I have dark thick hair which I know isn’t easy to cut or color but they’ve been nothing but nice and I’ve never left disappointed!
I have been coming to this salon for quite some time now, and I absolutely love it. Hayley is the stylist I normally see and I can't recommend her enough. She is patient, meticulous, and a perfectionist. She has made my hair look more beautiful than I ever thought it could!
Great staff! Very Friendly and courteous. Love my hair cut and color!!
Ashlee Magnuson is My Hair Stylist and I followed her to Salon Afton when she came here almost Two Years Ago! The Receptionists are always so sweet and The Owners are so kind! Everyone always asks how I'm doing when I come in and they genuinely care about their Clients. All of the Stylists at the Salon have such a…
