They really listen to what you want!!! – These ladies are wonderful hair stylists. They take the time to listen to what you want and actually do it. Really, how many times have you said "I only want a trim. or I want natural looking highlights.", only to come away looking like a gazing ball or that your 5 year colored your hair with their finger paints? I will not go any where other than Studio K Salon. Call me picky but I like my hair as most women do, but if you don't go see these ladies. They are all great. Karen has done... read more

AWESOME!!! – I have naturally curly hair and I have had a hard time finding someone who can cut it so that it maintains its natural style. Connie was highly recommened so I tried her. She did an awesome job. I have been back to see her and will continue to do so, even if it is an hour drive one way. The owner, Karen, is very professional and offers a great place to relax among her friendly staff.

STUDIO K IS THE BEST SALON IN DURHAM!!!!! – I have been a cusomer since they opened the doors. Recently I have my hair done by Melanie. Her knowledge, customer service and skillset has brought me compliments on my hair. She is patient and has excellent styling ideas. The whole crew of stylists are exceptional and always willing to pitch in to assist the others if there is a question or if the customer needs a little professional advice on whether a certain style is better than another. I have been to other salons in the area... read more

Studio K Salon Ripoff – I found I lost my regular hairdresser and thought I had found a place with great reviews. I had a big reunion to go to and loved my last highlighting, but asked this time to go more blonde as it had dulled. After three hours in the salon, my hair still wasn't blonde. At the checkout, a lady said " Oh, you'll need three visits to do that. I was also given one price by the hairdresser and another at the checkout to put me in a position to not be able to afford the tip. The website falsely advertises SAV... read more

Business response:

Customer came to use 3 coupons (only one allowed per visit). Had box color on her hair, this was her second visit to a professional. After consultation with 2 designers, agreed to do a tint back. Then did highlights. Client agreed. Returned because she wanted to have additional highlights, which designer did at NO CHARGE to satisfy client. Was told up front of the charges, then charges were broken down per service. 50% OFF on website is ONLY FOR JUNIOR TRAINEE DESIGNERS we have none at this time. NOT false advertising.

Melanie saved the day.....and, my hair – I came into the studio with dry, thin, brittle hair in two huge knots. She patiently and gently spent hours removing them. She then made some brilliant suggestions on color and style. What first appeared like a day of gloom (expecting to leave with the knots, and most of my hair cut off) turned into a happy experience with the best possible color and style. I have become an instant loyal customer and supportor.

hair disaster – My daughter is attending school in durham. We researched a salon online for Prom based upon reviews. We got "Bea" who was supposedly an expert in updo's. She was the worst! We described a simple look that we wanted and she kept trying to talk us into her way (which we highly suspect is the only way she knew how to do it). We asked for her to trim the bangs and she did it with a blunt razor that turned them totally frizzy and lopsided. it truly is a disaster. I emailed pictures of the updo and frizzy, lopsided... read more

Business response:

I am never pleased with THIS TYPE OF MEDIUM to vent frustration or dissatisfaction, as it is rampant with OPINION and frankly, as your 'home' stylist requested, you should have mentioned this to me or my manager so we could have done something about it to gain your satisfaction, you did not do so. Updo's are a very emotional ordeal for some people (especially parents). It was apparent to my designers you and your daughter had different opinions in what she wanted. I find myself offended at the accusation of a 'bait and switc... read more

If you do not trust your judgement, you can trust studio K! – I had my hair done here recently, and I am the "afraid of change" kind of girl, who likes her hair just ever so slightly trimmed, but while working with Sarah we decided it was time for a new me. I was put at complete ease. She had a new vision for my hair, which desperately needed it! I was resistant at first, but she was confident in what she had suggested and so we did it! The cut and color were fabulous! This girl really knows her stuff, so you can be assured ... read more

Trendiest Salon in NC!! – I was new to this salon in Feb '09. Melanie was recommended to me by a friend who loved her hair. I was greeted by the receptionist who was very friendly. I was then greeted again by my stylist, Melanie. She was incredibly friendly and welcoming. I had color and a cut done and wanted something so specific I took in a picture with me. Melanie tried very hard to understand each detail about my hair. She explained to me each step of the process so I felt very comfortable and confident with the color. W... read more

DON'T get a straightening treatment done here! – I went here almost a year ago (March 2008) for the Grund straightening treatment, which I had had done at another salon a year before and absolutely loved it. Studio K did something TERRIBLY wrong- because my hair broke off at the root immediately after they put one chemical on it. They realized what was happening and stopped the treatment, tried to rinse out whatever chemical they had put on me- but it was too late! Here we are a year later and my hair still looks horrible. T... read more

Business response:

As the owner of Studio K I once again apologize for your very very unfortunate and highly unusual situation! I was shocked to see you wrote this review a YEAR LATER!! I recall you, and recall I was shocked and surprised as we were beginning to apply, and we did immediately stop the process, as well as send you with free remedy products to reconstruct. My recollection is that your hair had a very HIGH LIFT COLOR/Lightener (undisclosed) on it and unfortunately the lack of communication between you and the designer that was doi... read more
