After a couple of failed attempts elsewhere, I finally found the right place at Solari Hair Salon in Portsmouth. Avy (pronounced Avee) took the time to really listen and understand what I was going for—and absolutely nailed the men’s hair color I had been trying to get right for a while. Thank you, Avy, for your…
Welcoming salon with a spectacular stylist in Molly. She gives me a great cut that I can wear naturally wavy or blown out. She listens to my concerns and on my latest appointment gave me the most natural looking highlights I have ever had.
Solari spa in Portsmouth is very welcoming experience. Jillian is wonderful, and does best coloring and cuts! She’s the best!
Payne took wonderful care while highlighting my hair!
Truly the best experience! They were able to get me in the next day for a color correction after an unfortunate experience at a different salon and Paige worked WONDERS. Definitely my new hair place from here on out !
