Sonia cut my hair and she was amazing. Had great suggestions on hair products I wanted. Natalie cut my husband's hair and she was fantastic. All around great service.
I brought my 11 year old here to get her first salon experience and we weren’t disappointed!! Our stylist made sure my kiddo felt comfortable and relaxed the whole time! The atmosphere of the entire salon was peaceful and relaxing. We will definitely be coming back for all of our hair care needs!
MARIAH was awesome with my hair.The Customer Service at the salon was awesome all the way around and I would suggest Mariah to anyone who wants a great hair cut and style.
Excellent haircut and highlights by Kim. Exactly what I wanted in the color.
Sonjia is highly recommended when it comes to a hair cut and hair coloring, We are very happy customers.
I brought my young boys to the salon and everyone was so kind and patient with them. The haircuts are amazing. I highly recommend them!
Rhianna I was such a great job on my hair. She always listens to my concerns and addresses them. She does a great job with my color and cut every time.
Salina was great! I had a great experience! She was very professional and friendly.
Always 10/10
Won’t be coming back to this salon. My stylist was not interested in doing her job. Barely washed my hair and didn’t even cut the layers I asked for. I specifically asked for layers and all I got was a trim.
Sonja is great
Love the service!! Selena is an amazing stylist
I’ve been coming here for years because I know I will always leave with a haircut I love.
I have been impressed with Sonja’s haircutting expertise, but I have to say that after my last cut, she sent me out of the shop with all of my top hair brushed down on the front of my face. I could hardly believe it. As a result, I am cancelling my next scheduled appointment, which I believe is on Wednesday, August 5.
I didn't get a layered haircut that I asked.
So glad I found this salon and don’t overpay for cheap looking haircuts at the big name places anymore. Ashley nails it every time!
I was in town visiting family & needed a haircut badly 😑. From the moment I got there everyone was friendly & welcoming. Mae was my stylist & she was wonderful! She took her time & several times stopped to ask me if I was good with the length & process. She had a few suggestions which were great! My husband &…
Such a good experience! Very detailed and I loved my hair cut!
Marcia with the adorable curly red hair did a phenomenal job on my hair! She listened to exactly how I wanted it and made it happen! Highly recommend 10/10
Aubrie was fantastic. I’m a guy with curly hair and I have trouble with the length. Inevitably I get frustrated and cut it all off. And then regret it later. I asked Aubrie for help and advice. This was based solely on internet search and reviews. And it was a fantastic experience start to finish. I AM frustrated…
Mae was wonderful! I had a great scalp massage when she washed my hair and she was so patient and kind. She did a great job providing me with the haircut I wanted. I definitely left happy! Please go visit Mae!
After my stylist I had for years did a career change I have been in search for a hairstylist! Selina Ramos heard my concerns and I finally feel like I have a cut that suits my curly hair while still having layers and LOVE it! The salon is in a great location and is super cute I wish I knew it was here sooner! Will definitely be back and bringing my bf!!
Rhianna was absolutely wonderful! I will be back. :)
I had a wonderful experience. Everyone was friendly and helpful. I had been growing my hair out from a pixie cut and was looking to refresh my look. Holly really listened to what I wanted and delivered amazing results!
Salon is beautiful, peaceful and welcoming. Selina was terrific and so personable . I think I found my new salon.
Very nice, helpful staff. I came in with a picture and an idea of how I wanted my hair to look. They looked at the picture, explained what was possible and what wasn’t and did a great job. I’ll go back when I need another cut because they did such a great job. Thank you all😊
First visit to the salon and it was great! Aubrie was fantastic and eager to listen to my hair style request. I received exactly what I asked for and I highly recommend Aubrie! I will be returning for color next and I look forward to it.
Selena listens and makes good suggestions on color. Pricing is good. Timely and great location and parking.
Rihanna was And amazing experience, professional, She really understood exactly what I wanted a haircut. And she cut my hair, beautiful, and I was very satisfied with the service and my haircut. Rihanna is very polite very nice and have attention to detail. very patient while cutting my hair. I don’t remember the…
Just not at all what I showed a picture of. Went way too short on sides right off the bat and there was no going back. Won’t be back
my girlfriend loves it
Love this salon. I don’t have room in my schedule to make appointments. I call the day I have time. I always get in and every stylist has given me a beautiful haircut.
Great place for a men’s haircut! Sonja does a fantastic job. She’s very talented. Thank you for a great cut always Jim
Love Aubrie! She always listens to what you want.
I went in for a hair cut with Mariah. She did an amazing job. She let me know what she was doing with every step. I felt very comfortable in her chair.
The most wonderful salon ever! Sonjia cuts my entire family and we adore her
Great service and very cozy Solon
I had been going back to my “natural” (whatever that is!) brown hair color for about a year. With the summer hitting, the root touch ups I was getting elsewhere was giving my hair a not so desired reddish tint in the sun. Rhianna did a great job by blending 2 shades together and doing some “highlights” with the…
Aubrie a great stylist. She works wonders with fine hair. I would recommend her to anyone.
Always a great experience.
Great place! They work to get you an appointment as quickly as possible! 🙂
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!
Always enjoy my experience at Salon Afton. Wasn't crazy about spending $60 for a basic cut, but Rhianna made the cost worth it with a luxurious hair wash and added layers.
I can’t recommend this salon enough! I scheduled a same-day haircut with Mariah and she was amazing! I would absolutely go back to see her again, she checked in with me multiple times throughout the appointment to ensure that I got the results I wanted, and gave me a lot of great information about how to take care…
Mariah is great!
It's truly 5 star service.
Excellent Salon! Extremely personable staff and absolutely love my haircut, Holly gave me exactly what I was looking for. I will most definitely be back also was extremely affordable🥰
Love Selina!! Love the service
First visit to Salon Afton. Mariah was awesome. Took her time to understand what I wanted and my cut turned out exactly as I wanted. I’ll definitely be back!
Kim, Mae, Holly, Aubrey have always taken good care! Not just of me- my whole family. We love the quality and care this place has. Nancy at the front desk helped me take these photos. It is always a very welcoming environment! Very professional staff; I am always quickly served and helped to setup my next visit.
Sonjia is friendly and made sure she understood what I was requesting before she started my haircut. I felt very comfortable in her chair and left looking sharp.
I love going to Salon Afton because I know I will feel beautiful when I leave. Selina does a wonderful job in supporting me with my transition from no longer coloring to embracing my gray. Love it!
My first time here and it was great! Nice people. Great service! Love my new haircut and the scalp massage was amazing!
Great experience and hair cut with Ashley!
Great experience today! I called to see if there were any appointments available for a haircut and they got me booked the same day. Mariah was very nice, explained everything she was going to do before she did it, and made sure I was satisfied after my hair was dried (she said I could have her cut more if there were…
Salon Afton is simply the best. Selena was amazing! I’m thrilled with the highlights and the cut. Professional and talented. Thank you.
What a lovely salon. Warm, friendly. My stylist was talented and listened to my request.
Love Salon Afton !! Ashley always has my hair on fleek !!!
This was my first appointment with Aubrie and she was wonderful! She did a fantastic job on my color and cut. The receptionist was so friendly and helpful while making appointments. The salon is beautiful. I highly recommend it to everyone.
Love Aubrie at Salon Afton. She does terrific color/highlights/lowlights and always looks out for the health of my hair.
