I cannot say enough good things about Kristen and her team at Identity! I've been a client of Kristen's since before she opened this new salon and I would follow her anywhere! She is so genuine and kind, but also extremely talented! I always look forward to chatting with her during our appointments. She has helped me transform the health of my hair over several years and that's difficult when you like to be very blonde. She is also a master at extensions! She's gone above and beyond to squeeze me in for an appointment when I thought I accidentally ruined my extension hair (and

Identity Hair Co. is an extremely talented group of women who instill confidence in their clients by giving them beautiful hair along with an overall positive salon experience. Having had my hair colored and cut by both Kristen and Emma numerous times, I can confidently say that my hair color is better than I could’ve imagined! Kristen’s blonding services have given me a natural grow-out and beaming blonde color. From the day I leave the salon to a full 10-12 weeks out, my hair color has a seamless, flawless grow out. Strangers have made the mistake of assuming my hair color is naturally blonde

I've always had that problem where I go to a stylist and leave with something I don't like, but NEVER with Identity hair! Kristen is so very kind and sweet and listens to exactly what I'm looking for, I never leave disappointed! The style of the salon is very cozy ,clean and professional as well!

I set up an appointment as a new client for a hair cut and got a quick extension consult on the same day. Kristen went over everything from cost, color, length. She was very thorough and asked questions about how I usually style my hair and things to figure out if the extensions were suited for me and so she knew how to color it to my liking. I’ve never had anyone ask me questions like that and I’ve had extensions done many times in my life. (Literally had a halo done at a different salon last year and my experience was horrible, I was rushed, my color was WAY off from what I asked for, and

Absolutely the best service I have ever received. The stylist took the time to explain realistically what different colors would look like on me and really help my grasp what was best for me. Honestly, I have never felt more beautiful than what this coloring had made me feel. 10/10 recommend to everyone. When booking with Identity your not only getting a hair coloring your getting a stylist that honestly cares and wants the best outcome for you.

I don't often review places, but I just had to this time. I was recommended by a close family friend. Identity hair is amazing. Emma did such an excellent job on my hair, and I'm pretty positive this is the happiest I have ever been after a hair cut. The staff is extremely friendly and conversational! No worries about those awkward silences for your first time! (I think we've all been there!) The salon is clean and safe, so you shouldn't worry about being uncomfortable in the times of Covid. I can't recommend them enough!

No words can describe how much I love this place! I have been getting my hair done by Kristen for a few years and she’s nothing but a bright ray of sunshine from the moment you walk in! I won’t let anyone else touch my hair! She always is attentive and listens to what you want!
Identity Hair Co is clean, and the layout is welcoming and comfortable!
Emma and Kristen are the best!!

Identity Hair Co. goes above and beyond to create an uplifting environment that is client focused and relaxing all at the same time! From the moment you walk in, Kristen is there to greet you with a smile on her face and open ears to hear all about your biggest hair dreams. She takes the time to understand your vision and works with you to ensure the greatest outcome possible. My hair health is always considered in the coloring process to ensure no unnecessary dryness or damage is caused. The espresso bar and refreshments are an added bonus to the already warm and inviting atmosphere. If you are

I absolutely LOVE this place! I have been getting extensions done by Kristen for a few years, so I couldn’t have been more excited when she opened her new salon! I’ve always had such fun conversations and experiences with Kristen and Emma-they are super sweet and so amazing at what they do! My extensions looked beautiful, and I received sooo many compliments every day on my new “hair”. Kristen took me from brown to blonde today and I’m obsessed with my new hair! The new salon is so inviting and chic, I could spend all day there! I love the new bar, complete with coffee, seltzer’s, snacks

Today was my first time in since they've opened! I've been to Emma before back when her and Kristen were at the Warehouse Salon. The two of them moved over to open up this salon, and I love it! The interior is beautiful and modern with lots of accents! The two of them have a wonderful dynamic and friendship, which flows nicely throughout the salon.

Emma does wonders for my hair! I had gotten it done by her at the end of May, so I just came in today for a trim, glaze, and root touch-up. She makes every appointment so fun! I'm convinced she gives the BEST scalp massages, obviously
