The Cutting Edge
The Cutting Edge is your favorite local, full-service salon serving Auburn, Opelika, and Lee County. With a large staff that is well-trained and talented, we are almost always available to keep you looking and feeling great. Walk-ins are always welcome. Open Monday through Saturday. I adopted the streak in January of '09 and we had a good run but I decided to close the rogue chapter of my life.

As always, Cristie did a fantastic job! I just had my hair cut this past Friday by Stephanie. This is the the second time she has done my hair and the only person who has done my hair since I have moved to this area. Both times she has left me with exactly what I asked for. I am quite particular about finding someone who can deal with my unruly curly hair and I have definitely found my permanent stylist.

I never post reviews. But I thought I’d save someone else from the frustration we experienced here.
I’m sure there are skilled stylists at this place but the one I had cut mine and my daughter’s hair did a terrible job. I ended up having to go to another salon and have someone fix it. This place didn’t really brush our hair or even wet it. She just started chopping and what we ended up with was two less than desirable haircuts. I would save my money and go somewhere else.

I left with crunchy curled hair that looked fine when I walked out of the doors, but, upon washing it and letting it dry naturally it was a mess. I now am stuck with 3 chunks of blonde in my hair along with the previous hair color I asked to get rid of. I tried to get in contact with the stylist for a week and even called 3 times one day and no one answered. I was very polite the whole time and when I called to say I didn't like it I was told "you didn't have anything to say before you left"

Lindsey is such an amazing stylist! She did a phenomenal job in my balayage. She’s very professional, knowledgeable, and caring. I can’t rave enough about how many people love my hair.

I've been coming here about 3x years now and they've done a fantastic job, especially Ms. Dusty. She's always really nice and available when I need to get my hair cut every month. She's quick and does a great job.

I went here because i dyed my hair blonde at home and it had some brassy tint to it so i went to just dye it all a light brown to start over and give my hair a break from the bleach. my hair when it first got done was a dark brown almost a chocolate color and it was darker than expected but i liked it! i didn't wash my hair for about 3 days because it felt so nice and soft and i didn't want to ruin it but then when i finally washed it within the next day it was almost completely washed out. my hair was an orange color and very coppery. i was so confused because i just spent $90 on my

We have been going to Linda for years, she's absolutely the best! The Cutting Edge is a great salon. It's very spacious, clean and we'll organized. The ladies there are friendly and super nice. There are several stylists who can take walk-ins. It's a really good environment to spend a few hours in getting your hair done.

Was once very pleased with my stylist Susan Kelly Arvelo. But now I cannot believe that she tried to blame HER mistakes on the product, then on ME personally!!!!

I had went to her for a custom color (Rusk POPFX in purple) and went from hair that was to the middle of my back (specifically brought in a picture of the cut I wanted.) And I walked out with a cut that looked NOTHING like the picture whatsoever. I was happy enough with the color application at that point in time, so I was willing to overlook the haircut mishap. Since she had always been a great stylist/colorist in the past, and was

I stopped in for a cut when I saw that they were walk-in friendly. Dusty took me back immediately and got to work. She was very friendly and made me feel at ease. I have super thick, naturally wavy hair and she was honest enough to tell me that she didn't think the cut I suggested would work well with my hair type. I appreciated her opinion and took her advice- and I was very pleased with the results! I was also happy about the price. Very affordable for such a nice salon.

The Cutting Edge can help with all of your hair needs! All of the staff were so friendly and stylish; I knew I had walked into the right place to get my hair cut right when I stepped in! I walked in without an appointment, and there was almost no wait to see a stylist. You should definitely ask for Lindsey--she is sweet and will have your hair styled exactly the way you want it! I will definitely come back.

This company is the worst company ever!!! We used them for a few months and they did a horrible job. Any time I called to ask them to fix some problems, I never got a call back. Now that we cancelled our service. I get a past due notice in the mail telling me I didnt pay for one of the months that they did service. I was NEVER notified. I wasnt given any answers except I just need to pay what is owed to them. I payed for the service when I received a statement. Now they are telling me I owe them money. If you are thinking of using this company look for someone else.
