I came to this salon a few years ago and was turned away for having a difficult hair type. I was recommended to come back about a year later to see a different stylist Laura O’Hara and I was blown away. She not only was very skilled at manipulating textured hair but she was able to do so naturally. I received money pieces and a blow out first. Then she did a full all over blonde color. She has now brought my back to my natural color and my hair has never felt so this thick and healthy. I highly recommend Laura O’Hara for anyone looking for healthy hair especially if you are experimenting with

Clarky Davis has been cutting and highlighting my hair for about 4 years. My hair has never looked better! She goes out of her way to ensure I’m happy with the way it looks and makes suggestions about new styles to keep me up to date. .She’s the best!

I would not recommend this salon to anyone. I went in with light brown hair that had red highlights. I asked for my hair to be dyed a medium brown and for the highlights to be covered up, meaning I wanted my hair to all be one color. I showed Brooke, my stylist, a picture of what I wanted and went to go get her products. She came back and started applying the dye to my hair, getting it all over my face and in my ears. While she was dying my hair she said not to be worried, that the dye is darker while it is being applied then what it is going to look like at the end. I said okay and we continued

Today I had an appointment with Grayson C. for the first time. She was an absolute gem! She cut my hair exactly how I had asked. I’ll definitely return to Salon Blu (North Hills) for more services with her. Thrilled to have found my new stylist and recommend her to anyone who is looking for a trusted hand.

I am so impressed with this salon’s customer service, I have had nothing but wonderful experiences here. This is hands down my favorite salon in the triangle.
Every stylist I have ever encountered here has been professional, kind, friendly, and a pleasure to talk to. They make sure you are 100% happy with your hair and they do whatever they can to make you feel comfortable and confident.
I highly recommend both Jennifer E. and Lexi K. for coloring.
Don’t get hung up on the different “levels” of stylists… even the “junior artists” are just as amazing as the “creative specialists”

Absolutely love this salon especially Clarky Davis who has been doing my hair for several years. She is a true professional who listens to you and always delivers fabulous results. I moved out of the area two years ago and still drive three hours each way every seven weeks just to see her. She is a fabulous colorist and is especially expert at managing my fine hair. I love this woman and salon!

I went in for an appointment today and was really disappointed by the whole experience. I booked my appointment with Lauren but my hair was mainly done by this other girl that I think was her assistant, the assistant was very kind and attentive. Lauren on the other hand not so much but that's the least of it, I just wanted to get and pay for what I asked for that's all! But she literally put like 6 strips of bleach on my head in a time frame of like 8 minutes and charged me $187 for that.... When on their website it says a half balayage is $119. I wouldn't be upset about paying

Love this place. Love LAURA O. Great experience from booking online until I walked out with my amazing haircut. Laura took her time, listened to what I wanted, and knew exactly what to do. I've never had my hair washed so thoroughly in such a comfy chair in a salon. Laura really gets in there and makes it such a relaxing experience. I never felt rushed. Already made another appt with her for color. Highly recommended!

I started coming to this salon after letting my hair become pretty damaged during quarantine, Laura (O'hara) has gone above and beyond to help me get my hair back to healthy! She's been phenomenal with the various colors (from fun colors, to tame and everything in between) and is always helpful with suggestions for products to keep my hair healthy. She is fantastic at her craft, and at this point I'm not sure I'd trust my hair in anyone else's hands. Thanks for being such a rockstar girl, me and my hair appreciate you!

I received hair extensions from Erika Crane. I needed them removed because they were itching my head and hurting my scalp. They could not fit me in for an appointment. I was very gracious about it. They told me to call other salons. So I did. I posted on Facebook it was so itchy I was going to cut them out myself. My friends said "noooo let a professional do it". So my next post was "i found a professional to remove my extensions"- Meaning I wasn't doing it myself. Erika who was on my social media- misinterpreted the posts to mean she wasn't a professional. Not what

After transitioning between different hair stylists for years, I found my perfect match with Erika at Salon Blu in NH! She is an expert at styling blondes and always delivers more than I could ever expect.
The salon staff is doing an excellent job handling temperature checks and keeping the waiting areas clear during COVID, and safety precautions exceed expectations all over the salon. Keep it up!
