UPDATE AFTER THE SALON’S RESPONSE: I already disclosed in my original review that Studio H refunded $322 of the $362 charge, so that is not “missing context.” The salon’s response focuses on frizz, dryness, treatments, and previous consultations, but none of those things are the reason for my review. I am not…

This was m second time going there. Anna is wonderful. She knows what she is doing. Everytime I left there, I left happy and satisfied with how my hair looked. It’s easy to get in. Everyone there is very personable. Great positive environment, good refreshments and great service.

I can’t say enough great things about my experience with Denise! From the moment I sat in her chair, I felt completely comfortable and confident that I was in good hands. She took the time to listen to what I wanted, offered helpful recommendations, and made sure every detail was just right. Not only is Denise…

This salon is really nice. Chayna did my hair and did an amazing job and really took her time to do things right. The salon is super laid back and calm. I would definitely recommend 😊

This is my first time ever leaving a negative review, but unfortunately, I had an extremely disappointing experience at this salon. I booked a balayage and even sent pictures days in advance of my current hair and what I wanted, so I was very clear about my expectations. Despite that, the outcome was horrible: only…

I recently had the pleasure of seeing Shylah for a color transformation, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! We went from my natural brown color to a gorgeous lived-in blonde, and she absolutely nailed it. The dimension she created is stunning – the way she blended the colors is so seamless and flattering.…

I've been visiting Studio H Salon for about 2.5 years, and Kristi has been my stylist from the start, fixing a previous salon's work. She's expertly handled balayage, highlights, and various colors, including red and light brown. My haircut has stayed the same for two years because it's just that fantastic, though…

I always go to Damaris for my hair coloring and I usually get a balayage. She always makes sure I am happy with where I end up with the color and the length of the cut I get as well. She is so so kind and makes sure I’m comfortable during the whole process since I have a lot of hair and it’s usually a long process…

I have been going to Kristi since I moved to the area going on almost 5 years now and she has a client for life. I always look forward to seeing her and catching up on what has happened between our sessions. She knows my hair and my want and love to be a red head. I give her full liberty to choose my color and she…

First of all the place is so nice and clean!! Damaris was the one that did my hair and I’m very happy how my hair turned out. It was my first experience doing a balayage and I was very well informed of what was going to happen. I felt very included and Damaris had great communication with me. Overall Damaris is my…
