Sam & Bill's Hair Design

Positive: Cleanliness, Professionalism, Quality
I recently got a haircut from Sandy B. It was the first time that I went for a bob cut and I loved it. She understood exactly want I wanted. I was actually unsure at the beginning whether the haircut would suit my face or not, but she was confident. I am really happy with result.

Carly always does a good job on my hair and I always get compliments after I get it cut.
Service: Haircut

Dang. I loved this experience. I was looking for someone to give me quite a substantial cut. I met Shilo after she had a last minute cancellation… I really lucked out! This legend is typically booked solid and I can see why! The salon itself is very welcoming and cozy and Shilo, my stylist, is very talented and professional. Run, don’t walk y’all. Xx

Positive: Cleanliness, Professionalism, Quality
I’ve seen both Jess & Kari here and they are both amazing! Each time I have been extremely happy with the outcome of my hair. The shop has a very nice, chill environment and everyone there is very friendly. Prices are also reasonable for the services provided. Definitely recommend this salon!
Services: Haircut, Balayage, Hair coloring

Kristi is my favorite! She listens and consults like a queen; takes her time to cut with precision; and is incredibly easy going, down to earth, and relatable. I will continue to book my appointments with her as I look forward to being pampered!
Sam and Bill's is such a unique salon with its cozy like interior rather than I sterile salon. I've always been treated with respect and professionalism.

Sandy is a true artist as a hairdresser. I love how she uses color to give definition to my hair. I always get compliments on my color and cut. The products they carry keep my hair healthy and shiny.

I just moved to the area and was on the hunt for a new salon. I called in advance to get an idea on pricing for partial highlights and a cut and they were friendly and the prices seemed very reasonable, especially compared to other salons I called in Raleigh. I had Kari as my stylist and loved our conversations and she was really efficient and worked quickly. I’m so happy with my coloring and she blended the blonde shades beautifully! I also left with a complimentary gift bag that had samples of shampoo & conditioner, a tumbler, and scalp brush. Overall I actually had a lot of fun talking with

This place is the best hair salon I have ever been to. When I first came to Sam & Bill’s my hair was a literal disaster, but the stylist Jessica worked hard to fix it. She gave me tips on how to help make my hair healthy again, while also through some miracle work fixing the disastrous hair color that I came in with. I continued making appointments with Jessica, and every time I came in she would outdo herself to make the coloring job look better than it had beforehand. In addition, the salon is very reasonably priced. I am moving out of the Raleigh area and I will be blessed if I can find a

I have gotten my hair cut twice now by sandy and every single time I have left so happy! My hair is super thick and never have I felt like I couldn’t trust her with it! Both have been extreme cuts one a bob and recently a pixie.. and sandy has left me speechless.. everyone at the salon is super nice and welcoming.. i will definitely be back and recommending!

Kari is the best! She's the only person I trusted with my hair for the 8 years I lived in Raleigh. Cuts were always great and when I decided to try balayage she did a great job as well! She is also awesome at providing recommendations when I wanted a change and also introduced me to products I will never stop using (Moroccanoil dry shampoo ). Plus she's also just a super nice person. Go see her!!!

This Raleigh icon has recently celebrated a major milestone birthday. It's a quaint old two story house which has been converted into the go to place for hair cuts, styles and color for both men and women. It is located on Oberlin Road between Cameron Village and Hillsborough Street. Lunch or a cold beer at Players Retreat could be a great way to show off your new hairdo. It's only going to look this good on the day you visit, regardless of how many outrageously over priced products you leave with. And they do push product.
The receptionist is always super helpful and scheduling is

I got my velvet balayage done here last week by Jessica. It looks wonderful. Although I have thick long dark hair and the process took a couple of hours, she was patient and nice all the time. I will definitely be going back.

This is probably the most unsure I have been about the quality of a service ever. I am not a professional hair stylist and I do not claim to know what is right or wrong technique. But as someone who has been getting devacuts for more than two years now, I can tell when something is off. I have recently moved to raleigh and choose Sam and Bills bc of their great reviews. I went in for a devacut with Stephanie, and she did her part of making me comfortable and asking me questions about what I want. But the end result is something I am still very skeptical about, like i said since I am not a professional

I was a walk-in who needed a simple, quick one inch trim. The receptionist and hairdresser were friendly, my service was quick, my hairdresser answered my questions, I didn't get a wash as per my personal request, and I did get my ends trimmed, but this maximum 15 minute procedure cost me $50. I would maybe think that this was the minimum a hairdresser could charge, but the card I was given had $30 and $40 options. I still tipped my hairdresser as I would normally. I suppose the service wasn't terrible, but I felt jipped and disappointed that I was charged so much for an incredibly simple

I came in wanting something edgy, experimental (for me) and I only had a vague idea of it. Shiloh cut my hair, and she is amazing at listening and working with you to figure out where your vision and actual hair can come together. She nailed it! I LOVE my hair cut. Also, everyone I talked to, of course including her, was super sweet and really friendly. It's a welcoming and nice place and I think I've found my go-to salon!

Whitney was great. I have curly hair and she did a wonderful job on the cut. I had a big deal event and my hair looked great. She also made me feel very comfortable, as did the receptionist and other stylist I met.

Don't Say That You Don't Like Your Cut or You're Fired!

For the record, I'm writing this review based on my experience only - it was the positive reviews of others that made me want to try this business in the first place.

I arrive at the appointment, meet the stylist - she's friendly, has great hair, I'm thinking this is a good start. We discuss my hair issues - my previous stylist that I loved moved out of state so I'm in hair purgatory at the moment - and agree on a style. Unfortunately, her vision and mine were not in sync when the cut was finished -

Great location and reputation - however, as I chose them for being a Redken salon, and gave them the formula used in my hair, was very disappointed with the end result.

I love getting my hair cut here-such a great location and the staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Sarah cut my hair most recently, and she was great! Although it is a little pricey for college students, I think it's worth it.

Jessica is great. Once I found her, I knew I'd go nowhere else in Raleigh for a haircut. the staff is very nice; the space is a converted house, which I love; and I appreciate their text/email reminder system so I won't forget an appointment. whether you go for a basic trim or something a bit more stylish, Sam and Bill's is a great place to go.

Growing up, I was taught a very important lessons by my father:

"You NEVER pay for cheap sushi or cheap haircuts. Nothing good can come from either of those decisions."

It took a few poor decisions of my own before I stumbled upon Sam and Bill's. It's location is fairly ideal (near NCSU and Cameron Village), but the house that the business occupies can blend quietly into the neighborhood if you aren't actively looking for it. Nevertheless, the salon is friendly and inviting and all of the staff members do a great job of making you feel at ease. I judge a salon/barbershop

Greg and Sandy Brown own Sam and Bill's, which is located in a charming 90 year-old restored home that has a warm and inviting atmosphere featuring hardwood floors, fireplaces, and a coffee bar for your comfort. Conveniently located beside Cameron Village in the heart of Raleigh, additional treats of new restaurants and shopping are only a few steps away.

I got my hair cut and colored by Erin, who was outstanding. I can't speak for any of the other stylists, but Erin does great color, cuts and does the best temporary straightening of curly hair I've seen. My hair is REALLY curly
