Everyone was so friendly and welcoming, I got to meet the owner Katherine and we had wonderful conversation. The inside of the salon was very cute, comfortable, clean, and Covid safe (dividers). I’m a student at Quinnipiac and they do offer a student discount! Although, I felt like the prices for their services were very reasonable for the most part. I had my appointment with Laurie and she did an amazing job. I love my hair! She was so quick to answer my questions before the appointment. She was also the sweetest. What I really appreciated was how clear she was with what she was doing as she

Laurie has been doing my hair for years. She knows exactly what she is doing, pays attention to the details, and gives me the best haircut every time. I followed her to Small Talk Salon and it is so cute, clean, relaxing, and everyone is friendly. Sometimes, it's just me and Laurie in there and I feel like I'm at a private spa. I couldn't recommend Laurie or Small Talk Salon more. See you soon!

I am new to Hamden. Had been searching for a good salon for sometime. I am so glad I found them. They are clean professional and follow the covid guidelines.
I am very particular about my hair and have got thick hairs. I had to get a haircut after a longtime so was very careful in choosing the right place.
I went there after reading so many good reviews about the owner Katherine and other great hair artists.
Had very long, waist length hairs and had to get shoulder length layered cut with front angled hair, which is a huge change. I am so glad I found them and took my chances.

Small talk was such a fabulous salon! Laurie gave 100% attention to detail and was so great to talk to. She listened to exactly what I wanted and gave some great suggestions as well. I am so happy with my haircut and definitely recommend Laurie and Small Talk Salon to anyone looking for a fresh, current, and excellent salon.

Laurie has been my hair stylist for 25+ years. She is professional, attentive and knowledgeable about the current hairstyles and trends. I've been complimented more times than I can count on both my haircut and color. I highly recommend her services!

What a great fit - Laurie Rowley & Small Talk Salo! Laurie has been doing my hair for 20+ years and we’ve done it all - short, long, curly, straight, natural, straightened, dark, light & everything in-between. She listens to your wants & needs and is honest as to what will work for your hair type & lifestyle and what it takes to get a certain ‘look’. She keeps up-to-date by attending classes regularly and her suggestions when you’re ‘not sure’ are always thought-out and thorough. She wants you to be happy with your look and more importantly, for you to be confidant in achieving the

I've been going to Katherine for years! She's really great with my curly hair. Katherine is so friendly and upbeat and professional. I love the product lines she carries, especially R & Co and Arrojo. One of the many things I love about Katherine is she never pressures sale of products. Katherine respects that I know my hair best and how I style it, including that I do my own color. She is so great about giving me tips on my home color as well, how cool is that? I've sent many friends to Small Talk, and each is happy with their experience! Katherine's COVID response was so steady and practical

I was recently married in Connecticut and worked with Small Talk Salon for my hair and make up. I went to the salon for my trials and Rhiannan and Katharine came to the house we were staying at the morning of my wedding. Rhiannan did a FABULOUS job on my make up and my mother's hair and make up!! Katharine did my hair and my sister-in-law's hair and also did an amazing job!! We all received SO many compliments on our hair and make up. On top of it, they're both awesome and fun. The conversations both at my trial and the morning of my wedding were so cheery and they helped ease my

I have been going to Laurie for haircuts for the last 10 years and have always loved my hair. I have very thick hair she cuts it dries it and then goes back and takes all the bulk out. She always takes classes and stays up to date on her services. She listens so she can give you exactly what you want. She's very talented in her proffesion. I'm very happy that I found her.

Love, love, love this salon! This is the type of salon where you go, take a seat, and they make you beautiful. And they do it every time. Katharine is my regular stylist and she's just amazing. All my cuts have been great, even as they've grown out between visits. Kids have gotten cuts and color too. Very reasonably priced and love that it's family friendly.

Love this place! Called last minute for an appointment and they got me in the same day! The place is clean and well designed as well as being conveniently located in a cute area. The staff was super friendly and they affored me coffee at a really nice coffee station while I waited. I only waited a few minutes for my appointment. I had brain surgery a while back and expressed to the stylist that I was having trouble with the hair that was growing back in. I explained what I was looking for and showed her a picture. She gave me a great cut and COMPLETELY HID the hair that is growing back in. She

I had the pleasure of having an appointment with Rhiannan last night and she single highhandedly (ok, ok. she used both hands) did the best job anybody has ever managed with my hair. I can't possibly say enough good things - Rhiannan was sweet, attentive, and took the time to listen before presenting me options (woah! what a new concept with a stylist for me!) and talking me through what we can do to get my destroyed hair looking the way I hoped. She made me feel not only comfortable the entire time, but didn't overwhelm me or ignore my needs. Every experience I have had in the past using
