I came here for an eyebrow/lip wax. I realize this is a hair salon, but their website advertises waxing services. I was only 1 of 2 customers there and just needed a quick wax while I had a moment away from my kids. The wax heater wasn’t on, so I waited about 30 minutes for it to warm up. Totally fine, that was my decision. The young lady did not seem to know what she was doing though. I have had my eyebrows waxed a million times in my life at all different places and they always do it the same way— top, bottom, middle. She only did the bottom and seemed to think she was finished. I asked her

She did my hair for my wedding. She did a great job and was fun to talk to, such a fun experience!! She also saved me when my makeup artist backed out on me as I was walking out the door by finding someone to come to my hotel!

There was confusion about the time of my first appointment. I had scheduled 1:30 and confirmed 1:30 and they had marked 1:00. I showed up at 1:00. My stylist apologized but she had a 2:00 and couldn't fit me I. My appointments never take more than 45 minutes.
The second time I showed up 5 minutes early and the owner got in a pi**ing contest with me and I walked out.
I felt sorry for my stylist who was caught in the middle.

If you're in search for a good place to have a self-care day, this is your sign! I love spending a Saturday morning at Shear Bliss. When I walked in for my appointment today, I was welcomed by multiple staff members, offered a beverage, and loved the upbeat music selection they had playing! I felt comfortable with everyone (stylists and customers) wearing masks, and the beach vibe they have going is so relaxing. My stylist, Makaela, is always so easy to talk to, checks in to make sure i'm liking what's going on with my hair, and offers helpful suggestions! While I've never taken

Booked an appointment online over a week ago and drove around 30mins to be there well before time; saw the good reviews online hence took all this effort but i was utterly disappointed on reaching there. I was just greeted at the door, and told to be right with you, waited for 15mins and had to ask the lady to look up my appointment as she seemed to ignore me completely! On looking at the system she told me that my appointment isn’t showing up so she cannot take me today. There were others at the salon with online appt but only mine didnt show up! Salon lady seemed non-accomodating to me and

I was able to book my appointment online with no fuss and was seen very quickly. I hadn't been to a salon in years but Mikayla took great care of me. I have really thick, curly hair and she was knowledgeable about how to cut it and how to shape it. It was a simple cut at my request, but she really brought new life to my weighted down curls. If you're like me and want something quick, stylish, and efficient without fluff or fuss, I highly recommend Shear Bliss. Mikayla is super sweet!

I LOVE my hairstylist Nicole! She takes her time, and she is very meticulous. I have thick hair and lots of it, so it's always been a struggle to tame it. Since having Nicole take care of my hair, trying to style it is a breeze! So awesome when I'm on the run in the morning!! Thank you & I will be back!

I basically I never really trust anyone to do my hair but I decided to give them a try ... Not only did my hair come out nothing like what I asked for but it was $400 all she did was try to lift the color and color my roots left the rest of my hair without color and I am completely upset with the outcome. I had red hair and wanted the color completely gone at least. I manager kept looking at me because it was obvious I was upset and never stopped to ask if everything was okay. If I would have known I would have just kept my hair the way it was... I wish I could include a before , after & what I

I went in wanting to have my hair dyed blue. I have VERY dark brown hair and it is pretty long too. It was a last minute appointment but they were still willing to work with me. I went in and loved the atmosphere. It was so clean and everyone was very nice. Makaela sat me down and we talked about what I wanted and she went to look at her supplies and that's when we discovered the sad news...there wasn't enough blue for all of my hair even after the trim we did (about 5"). However, she came to me and explained the situation and asked if I wanted to continue or if I wanted to reschedule. She laid

Shauna is literally the only person I let touch my hair! She’s taken sooo much time and effort to get my hair back to a HEALTHY blonde after it was destroyed for years by stylist that had no idea what they were doing. I will always recommend her and proudly say she did my hair every time someone says they like my hair.

Shauna is by far the best stylist I've ever had do my hair. She did my blonde foil treatment PERFECTLY and made me feel wonderful. She had the absolute best customer service and even reassured me I'd be fine seeing as it was my first color ever! I'm so glad she was my hair stylist and I can't wait for my next appointment with her!!!

Edited to add: The owner Holly called me from a blocked number and threatened to "PRESS CHARGES" against me for posting this entirely factual story in a local moms group. She told me she "was going to refund me but now she's putting that money toward a lawyer"

I went to Shauna Bandy at Shear Bliss and the first appt I booked was an "express partial" which I thought was a partial highlight just without the cut/blowout & style and I thought that was perfect because I'm breastfeeding so I could be back quicker/spend less etc. When I got there it ended

What a cute little salon! Tucked in next to Hot Tuna, it has a really cool beachy vibe. I got to the salon a few minutes early, and Wendy welcomed me a few minutes early for my appointment. After a discussion about my desires and her assessment of my hair, she made recommendations for what she could do to get my hair to the color I wanted. I could tell, right from the beginning, that Wendy is passionate about her profession, especially color. When all was said and done, my hair looks better than I could have hoped. I have definitely found my VA Beach stylist!! Thank you Wendy!!

My son and I went in for haircuts together trying a new place out. We had a special occasion at the county club and splurged for the additional cost of our usual discount chain place.

The location is on the corner of Great Neck & Shore Dr. Find them in the strip by Hot Tuna. Parking is plentiful and the lot and walls clear.

We made appointments which is a must. Holly cut mine, while Kim did my son. We were both very satisfied and my son is picky. They offer a 20% first timer Yelp check-in deal. Unfortunately I did not notice until after I paid. However, Holly did apply her 10% first timer

THANK YOU HOLLY!!! She corrcted my hair & even took the oppurtunity with my permission to show the stylist-who had given me a hair cut i was upset with-how to properly do the cut & layers I wanted. This time in the salon felt very different & I enjoyed it & walked out very satisfied & with a cut I love!!! Holly has the after picture from today or I would post it. Holly was my orignal stylist 2 years ago who put my hair in the cut I love, she also has those pics. I WISH I had the pics to post. Now that I live down here again I will continue to go here because Holly is still here

I am very unhappy with my cut. I went to see Samantha because she has curly hair and her profile made it sound like she was experienced with curly hair. During my cut she said she was just starting to learn about curly hair. Cringe. I asked for two inches off my length, not my layers, and I'm pretty sure I got two inches off both. I specifically said my had to be long enough to pull up into a ponytail. Well my layers are way too short and they fall out of my ponytail. The worst part is that the layers that frame my face are completely uneven. One side is chin length and the other is a good

I had my haircut recently by a WONDERFUL stylist named Kyrsten. I have very thick, wavy/curly hair, which leads me to being very particular in who styles it. It is so hard to find a stylist who knows what they are doing. She is successful at getting the hairstyle you desire. She is professional, polite, and hardworking. I am honestly surprised at some of the negative reviews written about her, but to me it sounds as if these clients expect a hair stylist to read their mind. It is YOUR ( the client) job to communicate correctly with the stylist on how you WANT your hair to look.
Thanks again to

Best salon around! The ladies here are always friendly. The salon is clean and it's in a great location! I always leave here feeling refreshed and I receive tons of compliments on my hair.

My stylist, Samantha, always listens to exactly what I want and I've never been disappointed. My cuts and color are consistently amazing. I have sent several other customers her way and all have been more than pleased.

I am quite disappointed at the quality of service that I received despite the rave reviews. I got my hair cut with Holly. I just came in to even out my A-line bob and get my hair thinned out all around since it had grown out a bit. She had asked me if I wanted to have my hair cut dry or wet which confused me. She then told me that it was going to cost me an extra $10 to receive a shampoo (yikes) so I opted not to do the shampoo. However, my hair is not pin straight when it is dry and she did not even use a spray bottle to wet my hair. It took her roughly 10 minutes to cut my hair and she pretty

Appointment started off a bit rocky. She was running about 30 minutes behind schedule, but she offered to have me reschedule or wait. However, once the appointment started, Krysten was nothing short of amazing. She went above and beyond. Not only do I have extra long hair, but I have a lot of hair. She took no shortcuts and even stayed beyond closing time to finish. She was able to take a horribly faded ombre and make it look natural. I would highly recommend not only Krysten, but Shear Bliss in general. I will definitely become a repeat customer.

This place is amazing! I went in wanting a long bob. I explained to Melissa that I had started a new medication that made my hair dramatically dry. I told her how I styled my hair and that I enjoyed my length and basically let her take it from there. I was more than pleased with my end result! My cut was perfect and I loved how well she listened to my requests. She also recommended a new shampoo and conditioner which I use religiously now! She's awesome and the atmosphere is great!

I am always impressed in this salon! Melissa is awesome. After another appointment where the lady just seemed awful, she could've been in a crappy mood and needed a break before my intense wants. She was so sweet and patient as I explained that i wanted rose gold on the ends with mixed in wispy lilac color. Btw:my hair is a mahogany brown. Needless to say we went through photos and ideas and she brought up her own thoughts . I have relatives that are hair stylists and i know some things like you have to lift my hair to get that pastel color to stay and it may not with my cuticle like that

These chicks seriously rock! I was weary at first, purely because I don't let anyone really touch my hair at all. However, I was so happy with my haircut that I plan on going back. When you walk in you can see that the atmosphere is nice, and during the length of your session you really get the sense that they truly have a passion for hair. Holly cut my hair exactly the way that I wanted.

I seriously recommend this spot!

P.s. They have weirdly delicious natural soaps and lotions you can buy, and I adore things like this. I bought this Orange Cream soap bar and it smells just like a dream
